Uniform Negotiable Instrument Laws Boost Commerce Across States
General Counsel Paton reports to the American Bankers Association that uniform negotiable instrument laws and related acts have spread widely. The federal bill of lading act completed after eleven years, the uniform bills of lading act, and the uniform warehouse receipts act have broad adoption. Mississippi enacted the uniform negotiable instruments law this year, with Maine Georgia California and Texas as the remaining holdouts. The widespread adoption eliminates prior cross jurisdictional confusion and standardizes negotiability and liability rules.

Practical Health Hint On Acute Rheumatism Remedies
The notes from Dr. William Fitch of Stanford summarize acute rheumatism remedies. Rest enforces healing during severe attacks. heat provides relief. purgation is endorsed despite lacking a scientific rationale. salicylates help after purgation. opiates are usually avoided though lead and opium wash applied hot eases pain. External therapies like massage vibratory treatment and counterirritation offer some benefit.
