It's n plant of tho cactus tribe, flourishing In desert lands. (The U. S. on and after July 1.) Tho peoto bean has n passionate nature, niVl bears no relationship to th haughty bean of Boston. The shoots of the plant contain the kick. The kick brings amailng color vision. Monkcjs becomo a riotous pink, elephants a delicate green, gl nifTrs a baby blue with bushy tails of purple. Some bean! fly through the nlr, and the green rays of the pink stars illuminate the dull, brown lake 'beyond, on which golden elephants callqp in pursuit of purple whales. Time passes cither slowly' or Tcry rapidly. Tho mind may wonder through jears in tho actual running time of ten seconds flat, and, again a day may seem like a second. One cmi ncicr tell, be cause the pcyoto bean ncur acts the same. Tho pcyoto bean Is tho common namo given by the Mexicans to the tender sprouts of the lyophophora Williams!!, a plant of the cactus fam ily. The bean looks innocent, ennugn. But its effects arc what tho prohibi tionists want to guard ng-ainst. With the approach of prohibition, the nntl-liqtior leaders fear that somo of the present users of intoxicants ma) turn to other forms of narcotics. Legis lation has been asked to prohibit the sale and use of tho peyotc benn. Different from Boston Variety The peyotc bean is in no way related to the Boston bean.- Growing on tho desert 'lands of Arfona, New Mexico and Meilco.'it has, n passionato south cm temperament. The Bostpn bean ty cold nnd haughty. The Mexican Indians first discovered tho effects of the peyotc bean. The practice of partaking of tho bloom of the plant first became common nmong the native tribes from the Arkansas rhcr as far south as the City of Mex ico. After July 1 the prohtblilonlsts can not even estlmnto how far north the bean will bring its color visions and loss of tho sense of time. Dr. Ilebcr W. Youngken, professor of botnny at tho College of Pharmacy, said today that the bean is not safe to employ without further imcstlgatton. "The effect upon the Indians is far worse than beer would 'b"e," Doctor Youngken said. "While tho user is under the influence an cxhllarntlng sen sation develops first. The individual has no -sense of tliiic nnd has color lslons. This effect is followed by a depressed feeling."

"Tho effect Is to exhilarate nnd Inten sify tho imaginative faculties, producing n pleasant dreaminess," the encyclope dia states, "Homo obscrvors assert that, tho moral tone of tho users is heightened find that the bean effectively checks tendencies toward alcoholism. " "Tho main axis of tho plant grows underground," Doctor Youngken said. 'From the axis shoots appear above the ground. The ends of these shoots are what aro commonly called tho peyotc benns. They are button-like or diak pimped nnd from ono to two Inches in diameter. "Tho heads' of the sprouts nrc cut green, and then dried in tho sun. When prepared, they resemble mushrooms in appearance."

While the sporadic persecutions and massacres of Jews in Russia, Poland, Roumania, and the Ukraine, already reported, arc disturbing in themselves, they are but scattered sparks compared to the conflagration some observers foresee. Thus William G. Shepherd, in a Paris dispatch to the New York Evening Post, says that not only leading Jews in France but even notable Russian authorities, including Kerensky, "admit the possibility that the next Russian horror will consist of attacks on Jews." In the course of a dispatch from Paris a correspondent to the New York Day, a Jewish paper, says regarding the massacres in the Ukraine that "the purpose is apparently to exterminate the entire Jewish population." Regarding the reported persecution of Jews in Poland, Rev. Dr. H. Pereira Mendes, of New York, declares that that country "is now at the bar of the world's judgment, for theworld has to choose between Turkish atrocities in Armenia, German atrocities in Belgium and Polish atrocities in Poland." ? Poles in New York, and the new Polish Premier Paderewski, deny that pogroms have occurred in Poland, and characterize these charges as anti-Polish and pro-German propaganda. To substantiate these denials the Polish Infor mation Bureau cites Dr. Vernon Kellogg, recently returned to New York from Poland, who in an interview published in the New York Times stated that wliile "there were constant rumors of difficulties of one kind and another between the Jews and the Poles," he did not find evidence of any widespread massacres.
