All the concatenations of legislative pro- | cess are about to break loose. The holiday recess held ; them up. Reassembling of the lawmakers will release the | pent-up dam of controversy. H In both houses the controversies will be given a po- | litical tinge, in view of the approaching primaries and election. It is too much to expect unbiased legislation. The prohibition issue is expected to bring on the most heated debates in a long time in congress. In the senate, the question will be forced into its deliberations by the resolution of Senator W. J. Harris (Dem., Ge.), calling for a report from President Hoover's law enforcement commission. The house will have a big fight over prohibition when the annual treasury appropriation bill comes before it, probably within the next two weeks. Legislation sought by the administration for the transfer of enforcement activities from the treasury department to the department of justice also will bring on a row as will other pending bills, such as the Sheppard bill to make pwcchasers of liquor equally guilty with sellers. ‘The tariff also is calculated to be a disturbing issue. Sidetracked in December, it is to be brought before the senate again-with a view of keeping it almost continuous- ly under discussion until it is disposed of. Administra- tion leaders are predicting its passage by Lincoln’s birth- day or by February 15 at the latest, but the possibility of almost interminable debate on many of its controversial features gives no assurance that it can even be passed at that early date. Already it has been before the sen- ate since early in September. If the tariff bill is passed by the senate by the middle of February, it will mean it will take probably until April or later to complete enactment of the legislation. A se- rious deadlock between house and senate conferees is likely and more than a month is certain to be necessary to adjust differences between the house and senate bills. The agreement to keep the tariff before the senate to the exclusion of other matters hardly will operate tc bar the prohibition issue. It is understood that a morning business hour will be provided occasionally to allow other matters, as the Harris resolution, to come up. If the Haitien resolution receives approval of the senate committee on foreign relations, that also will come up in these morning business hours. The house approved the resolution authorizing the days. The senatc committee has not as yet taken it up and inasmuch as there is considerable hostility to the granting of authority to the president to name a new commission either for this or any other purpose its fate is in doubt. While the senate is wrestling with the tariff, the house will be concentrating its efforts on the annual appropria- tion bills. The house passed two of these bills before the holidays, those relating to the interior and agriculture departments. Both are now pending in the senate com- mittee on appropriations. Other bills which are nearly ready to be reported from the house committee on ap- Propriations are the army bill, the treasury and post- Office bill, and the state, justice, commerce, and labor bill. The house will do little else but act on appropria- tion bills during the month of January. Committees in both houses will be engaged in hearings and the preparation of numerous important bills. * Pre- liminary work on the rivers and harbors bill which will bring on one of the big fights of the session will start ‘at once in the house committee on rivers and harbors. Included in this bill will be an authorization for federal completion of the Illinois state waterway project. It is expected that the bill will be reported from committee in February and taken up on the floor of the house in February or March. Prisons and Babies A tiny sentence in a newspaper story sometimes will Provide more food for thought than all the rest of the newspaper put together. There was, for instance, a recent story telling of condt- tions in Auburn prison, in New York, where two bloody Tiots took place in 1929. This story, after reviewing the now-familiar story of over-crowding and antiquated equipment, added that Conditions are best in the women’s wing of the prison, “whieh houses 115 inmates—and three babies.” You can chew over that last little stinger in that sen- tence for quite @ while; but no matter how you chew over it, you'll never be able to get anything but an al- mighty bad taste out of it. “—and three babies!” In the most populus and wealthy state of the richest nation on earth, in the twentieth cen- tury of the Christian era, we have somehow found ‘t mecessary to keep three babies in a state penitentiary. | boys ‘You might just remind yourself of that the next tim you find yourself feeling that everything is for the best; in the best of all possible worlds. and highly civilized people! 20 @ criminal later on, that surely isn’t our fat ‘We've done the best we know how to do. ‘Yes, we do our best. And that’s the tragedy of it. If we were more than three degrees removed from the level of the chimpanzee the bare announcement-that there wis) even one baby in prison, anywhere in the land, would; stir us to a yell of protest that would rock that prison to its foundations. H ‘Three babies in prison!

The old gentleman didn’t have much, but what he had; they took. They took everything, that is, except a cheap | ring he was wearing. That he refused to part with. ‘The gunmen got angry and threatened to kill him. He | was obstinate, although the ring, obviously, was not worth | much, They persisted, he hung on to it—until, at last. one of the thugs got tired of arguing about it and shot him to death. Now this provided a bricf mystery for the store's man- | ager and the police, after the holdup men had gone. | Why should the old chap have clung so desperately 1o| a little, tarnished ring that could be duplicated for a dollar or two in any store? Then it was learned that the ring was a keepsake which the old clerk's dead wife had given him, years ago | And that, of course, cleared up the mystery. There) wasn't anything puzzling about it any more. | Or—was there? We can understand, of course, how! the man felt; but can we even begin to explain the) much deeper mystery that lies back of it all—the mystery | that is involved in every building up of affections | memortes and sentiments about some remifiier of a be- loved phantom? 1 All of us, to some extent, share in that sort of thing. | For everyone there is some token of the past that is; dear beyond words. It may be something cheap, even | slightly ridiculous—an old ring, a withered flower, a broken toy, a faded snapshot—but we would not part with it, It means, sometimes, as much as life itself. Why should this be so? Perhaps it is because we all the world is, at bottom, a terribly lonely place; a lonely Place, and often a cruel place. We cannot make a go of universe there is another spirit we can touch. But these others, on whom we depend, go away. So we cling to the inanimate objects that they used, or wore, or gave to us; and, by clinging to them, we conjure up ghosts; lovely, comforting, companionable ghosts, that make life endurable and keep us from going mad with loneliness. ‘Yet it is still a mystery. We have our moments of doubt, in which we are not quite sure whether we are lonely because we are such a long way from our true we have no home there at all, and are eternally adrift in ‘black night. So we clutch our trinkets close—and de- fend them with our lives. ‘Our Failure in the Philippines’ (Minneapolis Tribune) In the current lau of Sacare: air Cabot Lodge, Grandson of the late Senator Lodge, article en- titled “Our Failure in the Philippines. Young Mr. Lodge recently investigated conditions at first hand in the Philippines. Mr. Lodge is of the opinion that our continued reten- tion of the Philippine islands is a mistake. He concedes the United States the merit of good intén- tions in the Philippines, but he believes that Americans are congenitally incapable of appréciating Malay psychol- ogy. He thinks the American attempt to transform a sprawling archipelago of tropical, Oriental islands into @ centralized nation on the western, twentieth-century plan is impractical. Because we are seeking to impose our own psychology upon a people animated by a stub- born psychology radically different from our own we are, in Mr, Lodge's judgment, getting precisely nowhere. In- roundly insists that we are doing the crowds of American-educated natives wanting American luxuries into a land economically unable to support them. Not only are we doing the islands more harm than The argument has been made that the islands are use- ful to us because of their nearness to the Chinese market which, a few people believe, will some day be very im- Portant.

Unless a cold turns into some more serious disorder, it is self - limiting. After it has run its course, it ceases to be. Many people, knowing this, do not give a cold any treatment except to give it time. It should be remem- bered, however, that when a cold oc- curs, the body is trying to throw out waste products through the mucous Leanne and it is better to assist the processes by opening up all of the body’s channels of elimination. One should drink large quantities jof water in order to thoroughly flush | out the system of acid wastes. ‘The; {bowels should be thoroughly cleansed jby one of two enemas daily.

After the mixture has been allowed to stand for awhile, the patient should drink the juice, using from four to eight ounces at a time, about every half hour. Do not use other food until the cold has jabated. ‘The patient should be permitted to sweat as long as necessary until there 'is no abnormal temperature, The sweating should not be interrupted for any reason during the first ten hours.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Dry Mouth Question: L. B. writes: “I have at frequent intervels extreme dryriess of mouth and throat, in which pe- riods I find difficulty in swallowing foods. What is the cause of this ail- ment? And what remedy should I use to prevent such rescurrences?” Answer: The dryness of your mouth and throat must be caused by some inflammatory condition of the all- mentary canal Such disorders as gastritis, enteritis, of colitis set up a feverish internal condition which is often noticed in a reflex way by dry- hess of the mouth and throat. The cure would be to regulate your diet so as to get rid of the internal irri- tation. Treatments of the mouth would be of no help. Overeating Question: F. D. writes: “I ‘would like to know what is good to keep a person from getting sleepy in the eve- ings, after they have had a good night's sleep the night before.” Answer: The one definite cause of feeling sleepy early in the evening is from overeating. No matter how lit- tle you may eat the evening meal, it is always too much if you fee! sleepy afterwards, Perhaps when you re- turn from work, you are so tired that you should go to bed for a little rest before dinner. One who is over-tired needs rest and not food at that time. Hard and Soft Water Question: G. F. asks: “Is hard wa- ter as good for drinking as soft wa- ter? Is there any difference in the effect on the system?” Answer: The only pure water.is -dis- tilled water, but there is no harm in drinking water which contains min- erals, as long as it is free from de- caying vegetation or micro-organisms.
