Corner Stores Sell M edicines Made Up theadly Drug More than 100 products, sold reg- ularly over the counters of corner :rug stores, contain phenolphthalein, a drug whien in certain people pro- duces serious eruptions of the skin, or if taken. in .large doses, results in death. According to the recently published examination conducted by George H. Belote of dermatology and Harvey A. K. Whitney, chief pharma- cist of the University Hospital, many practitioners dispense these com- pounds without knowing that 'they contain phenolphthalein because in many cases the drug enters into the composition hidden in the term "compound." Many well known and widely ad- vertised cathartics contain phenol- phthalcin which is also used fre- quently as a coloring material in foods and drinks and in preparations advertised to the public for use in colds, grip, intestinal disturbances and other illnesses.

ARBOR SPRINGS WATER COMPANY Phone 8270 .Y EDITOR'S NOTE: Tie following is the first of a brief series of articles dealing with the American press dur- lug the WorldI War. Students interested in combatting war propaganda can learn much from. glancing through newspaper files for he period just prior to America's en- trance into the Word War, an ex- amination of a few of the files in the library discloses. The news and editorial columns of the leading papers in the eary months of 1917 contained a total lack of op- position to the government's war pol- icy and maintained a general tone of extreme 'chauvinism, an examina- tion shows. The New York Times, whose edi- torial policy supported President Wil- son, urged granting the President the power to" arm merchant ships on March -2, 1917, with these words: H OSI E RY SP ECIA LS Lisle Mesh Hose.. 89c 1 Kant Run Hose ..1o1 Walking Chiffon, clear, sheer, all-silk foot, fine appearance, wonderful wearing . 89C SLIPS Woven Brocade Taffeta Slip- splendid value-.navy blue and white 169 SMARTEST 1HOSIERY SHOPPE Michigan Theatre Bldg. "Delay would be perilous, deliberate obstruction a crime against the peo- ple . . . The powers conferred upon the President should not be limiter? . The right of our manufacturer, and merchants to export merchandise is not limited to any particular class of commodities, the right of our ships to carry any and all cargoes is equal- ly unlimited." Thesame day an editorial appeared castigating. Senator -La Follette of Wisconsin, who was conducting asfili- buster against the armed-ships bill. He was attacked for seeking to pre- sve neutrality,ashe said, "even at the expense of the money power." He was hit for voting against the resolution of confidence in Wilson and the espionage bills, and for in- troducing a resolution against the arming of merchant ships. "Not since the war began has Mr. La Follette been guilty of deviating into' Amer- icanism," the editorial concluded. The next day the Times carried a veiled attack on peace societies under the heading: TEUTONIC FINANCING DENIED BY PACIFISTS Records Of Emergency Federation Show 21 Out Of 60 Contrib- utors Have German Names An anti-administration paper, the Chicago Tribune, was much more out- right in its jingoism than the Times. At the head of the Tribune editorial column at the time, under the mast- head, the celebrated toast of Captain: Decatur was printed in bold face type: "Our Country! In her inter- course with foreign nations may she always be right; but our country, right or wrong.." Typical Tribune editorial captions -of the period, were: "In Time of War Prepare For War," "Vassalage Or In- dependence?" and "Military Training In Illinois." The Tribune's prepared- ness campaign was the subject of an editorial almost daily as well as fre- quent front page cartoons. It boasted ,f being the first paper in America to urge universal military training. On March 22, the Tribune policy was summed up in an editoria headed "Three Mandatory Policies," begin- nmg: "Three essential policies affecting the security of the U.S.: "1. Universal.military training. "2.. The despatch of troops to Eu- rope. "3. An agreement with Great Britain, France, Russia and Japan for no separate peace." An editorial headed "The Ladies' War," employed the deadly weapon of shame in its campaign to send an army overseas: "The wounded Cana- dians coming home will look with con- tempt upon the nation to the south; in front of whose security the Cana-, dian khaki has stood in danger," it ran. "Canadians fight with bayonets. Shall Americans fight with bazaars? Canadians will wear the red badge of courage. Shall Americans put on the yellow night cap?' An attack on pacifists appeared on the editorial page about the same time. "We insist," it said, "that if the pacifist sentiment governed mankind there would be nothing but war. It is the most intolerant sentiment known to man and the most provo- cative."
