SUGAR BILL TO
BE UP AGAIN
Another Effort to Be Made
to Get Action on Fed
eral Control
Washington, Dec. 12.—Another
effort to hasten Senate action on
the bill continuing federal control
of sugar next year was to be made
to-day. A movement in this direc
tion was defeated yesterday when
the Senate defeated a motion to lay
aside the railroad bill temporarily.
There was no partisan alignment
on the vote' of 27 to 32 by which
Senator McNary's motion was de
feated. Advocates of sugar legis
lation conceded importance or the
railroad bill but contended that im
mediate action was necessary to re
lieve the sugar shortage. Senator
McNary declared the bill could be
passed in two hours, but disposition
of his motion led to debate on many

Check and Abort
a Bad Cold
In Five Honrs With MEXTHO
LAXENE
You Buy It Concentrated and
Mi* With Pint of Syrup
Doubtless every reader recalls hav
ing neglected a slight cold until in
24 hours it settled into a "Bad
Cold" and then about 72 hours of
dtetress, discomfort, if not weeks of
bronchitis or pneumonia or catarrhi
Now confess, if you've had such an
experience, and take- time by the
forelock by preparing to check and
abort colds, coughs, catarrh, difficult
breathing, watering eyes and painful
headaches.
It can be done by taking Mentho-
Laxene either in its raw state—ten
drops to the dose—or by making a
granulated sugar syrup and mixing
in a pint bottle or jar. A pint will
last a whole family for a long time
and keeps every member free from
the distressing after-effects of a bad
cold. Mentho-Laxene is guaranteed
to please or money back by The
Blackburn Products Co., Dayton,
Ohio, and any well-stocked druggist
can supply you. Don't take a sub
stitute. There is really nothing to
compare with Mentho-Laxene.—Adv.

CALL YATES IN
DETZER TRIAL
Military Prisoner Expected to
Testify Today Against
Army Officer
f
I New York, Dec. 12.—Private Fred
j M. Yates, riow a military prisoner,
was expected to take the stand to
day for the prosecution in the court
martial against Captain Karl W.
Detzer, charged with brutality to
| prisoners in France.
\ On several occasions Detzer stood
[ by with a pistol in one hand and a
! blackjack in the other while his ser
' B ea nts "beat up" a man in his
, custody, according to testimony by
' H ' , Lacey ' of Indianapolis.
, one of the principal witnesses for the
; prosecution.
! Lacey, an ex-soldier, admitted he
j had escaped from Captain Detzer,
former commander of the 30Stli
military police company, after he
had been arrested by him on a street
",.^ e Mans for being absent with
thnt 1 'i defense *brought out
tton t l\ BO had left his organiza
tion in this country before it h-iH
sailed for France and that in lf14
he had been accused of deserting
from the Sixth Cavalry.
Lacey Testifies
Lacey testified that he had first
met Detzer when he had - ome out
of a cafe with Private Yates
~" e Baid . Detzer had challenged
y lacke d passes, but
that Yates had pretended he was
taking him to the provost Marshal's
office after having found him in the
railroad yards where Government
property was lying in freight cars.
Dacey said Detzer ordered them to
come along with him, but that nfler
they had gone a short distance, Yates
dropped his hand to his revolver,
and "told the captain to beat it."
Detzer did, according to Lacey, and
he and Yates fled, but were later
rearrested.
Lacey testified that on belnff
brought before Detzer again he had
received rough treatment fro-.n him
and his two sergeants, IT. 8. Madden
and Frank L. Hoyt. He asserted
that once Detzer had ordered his
sergeants to take him out, give him
a chance to run and if he didn't
make him, shoot and "waste no bul
lets.' He said he had been beaten
a dozen times, on seven occasions
before Detzer, who he said stood
by with a pistol in one hand and a
blackpack in the other. In addition,
Lacey said Detzer had made him sit
on a bench for five days without
sleep. If he dozed off, ho said, he
was grabbed by the hair and pulled
to his feet. He added that he had
been made to sign false statements
after he had "been led to believe
he would be punished by death" if
he disobeyed.
Denies Charges
In cross-examining Lacey, Lieu,
tenant Thomas L. Ileffernan, defen-ie
counsel, who at the opening of the
trial declared the defendant had in
curred the wrath of many "hard
characters" while abroad .asked the
witness if he did not know of "talk
of 'getting' Captain Detzer." He
followed this with another Question
as to whether it was not true he
had agreed "with others to get to
gether on one story." To both ques
tions Lacey replied in the negative.
Before calling Lacey, the prose
cution put on two new witnesses,
Louis Schmitt, of Long Island City,
and Glen Burrell, of Bedford, lowa.'
Schmitt testified that after he had
been brought into Detzer's office, ho
saw Detzer catch Marcello Gonzales,
another prisoner, smoking a cigaret
and ordered him "to eat the thing."
Schmitt said he left the room and
did not see whether Gonzales obeyed.
Schmitt admitted that he had
served as a "stool pigeon or rat" for
Detzer; that he had "squealed" on
acquaintances absent without leave
and that he would "trap uo" anyone
who gave htm "a dirty deal." He
added that ho would not "do It per-
sonally, but would let the law take |
its course."
He denied that hA was "out to get |
Detzer," but admitted that he was I
bitter because of an insulting re- j
mark he alleged Detzer had mude
concerning his mother.
Expects to Make Two
Arrests in Dansey Case
ilainmonton, N. J.. Dec. 12.
Prosecutor Edmund C. Gaskill
says that he expected to make two
more arrests in the Dansey case be
fore the Atlantic county court Jury is
| called upon to deal with the case,
j Gaskill said, however, that he did
not expect the jury to take up the ,
case before next Wednesday, if then, j
Coroner Cunntngnam. of Ham-!
monton, expressed the belief that the j
child was not killed by a bullet, but '
more likely by a stone or club. Had
he been hit by a bullet, said Cun
ingham, the mark would have shown
