Logan Payne Co. CHICAGO NEW YORK BOSTON The Knockers Have Their Season The westerner who goes cast comes back with the fear of a communistic revolution implanted in his nerves. He sees thousands of men out of jobs in the Twin Cities, in Chicago, in Detroit, and, if he goes farther, he encounters the same conditions in Pittsburgh, Philadelphia and New York. The situation is very disconcerting. It really doesn’t look good for the days when the snow flies. However, it was the same way back in 1895-96. William Jennings Bryan got his foothold out of similar conditions. He merely stole a metaphor of’a Massachusetts Irish con- gressman and said grass would grow in the cities if the with most of the rest of the Orient, is still liquidating the | ~ farmer failed and that this crown of thorns should not Chicago, in Detroit, and, if he goes farther, he encounters be pressed on the brows of labor, etc. But in time the country came back to prosperity. Bryan was stultified. He never achieved the presidency. Each campaign his radical appeal more and more marked him as the great American mountebank of the century. So today it may be a case of the darkest hour being just before the dawn. Certain it is that many minds the country over are surrendering to the same kind of mountebankism that was preached by William J. Bryan, a folly leader of his days, if ever there was one in this country. The plight of American agriculture and industry is held up to ridicule Washington. World conditions of the same character— generally a little worse, in fact, than in this country —are blandly and blindly ignored. The administration at Washington is held responsible for the shriveled wheat kernel, for the hot winds, for the surplus of wheat raised by the national farm community, unable to cooperate on curtailment of acreage. Conditions that have not existed for 40 years are laid at the door of the white house. How ridiculous! Was Herbert Hoover responsible for the record of hard times and crop failures and drouths 40 years ago? There is a Jot of irresponsible and insane thinking going on these days—thinking that is criminal in a time of adversity that wants to be considered on its merits and demerits and facts, not on cynicism. It is possible that some of these short-sighted critics will be answered by developments shortly. Allard Smith, vice president of the Union Trust company, Cleveland, says that although business continues at a retarded rate, the forces making for recovery are slowly but surely ac- cumulating. One of the most irresistible of these is the growing supply of credit, together with easy money rates. In the banks of America funds are piling up at an al- most unprecedented rate. Idle money does not pay for its keep. Sooner or later it must be put to work and eventually with returning confidence the easy condition of credit is most likely to constitute an important stimulus to trade. Rapid accumulation of deposits in American banks dur- ing the first six months of 1930 sets a new high record. In addition it is a possible forerunner of a business up- turn, For the period deposits of reporting member banks | look. cute. Cutting-up in short skirts and boyish form silhouettes was a different proposition. Pretty soon the of the federa! reserve system increased $1,494,000,000, or approximately 13 per cent. In the first six months of 1924, also a period of slow trade,.a heavy gain took place in deposits of these banks. Later it was found that this rise marked the beginning of a business revival. The gain in deposits in the first half ‘of 1924 was $1,169,000,000. Business had declined in 1923 and 1924, but the revival carried it into a long period of activity. On June 30, 1930, bank deposits had reached $21,317,000,- 000. If the gain continues as it did in 1924, by the close of December, 1930, depositors will have $23,000,000,000 in these banks. This year the loans banks are making, which-point the business trend, are for capital projects, for expansion and betterments. Industry is enlarging its capacity, pre- paring for greater and better production and lower costs, as witnessed by security and investment loans. Commer- vial loans have decreased. Senator Fess Senator Simeon Fess, who is in the spotlight at present as the prospective Republican national chairman, is the Ohio type of the late Senator Henry Cabot Lodge. He is a hidebound Republican and he is a scholar, especially on American history. So regular is he that it never oc- curred to anybody when his name first was mentioned for the place, to ask him whether he would accept. Fess never refuses a party call to duty of any kind. That, says a Washington correspondent, is how-regular Fess is in party politics. In Washington, continues this correspondent, the name of Fess is synonymous with regularity. On the floor of the senate, on the public platform or in private it is ever the same. Kepublicanism—rock-ribbed, regular republi- canism has a no more ardent supporter than Senator Fess. As the republican whip of the senate, Fess usually is the first to rally around the party standard when Repub- licanism is subjected to an attack. It is a familiar sight to see him on the floor fighting back at those who would criticize. Small of stature, red-faced and bald, he reminds one more of a college professor than a politician, political writers inform the nation. Years in the classroom as a professor of history before he entered politics have left their imprint on the Ohio senator. He is quiet, mild-mannered and studious look- ing. Invariably he is dressed in dark clothes which ac- centuate his natural seriousness. He takes pride in the fact that he is a student. His Speeches in the senate reflect his erudition. They are carefully prepared and sprinkled liberally with historical references and weighty sentences. He is jealous of the accuracy of his sources. During the debate on confirmation of Judge Parker for the supreme court, Senator Borah challenged the author- ity for a statement he made in a speech. Fess stuck to ‘bis guns and Borah demanded proof. The Idaho senator got it. Fess almcst turned the li- as a symptom of weak administration at | heritage of turbulence and unrest. brary of congress upside down in quest of authority for his statement. And when he did find it a day or two later he marched triumphantly into the senate and gave it to Borah, of his colleagues are aligned with as many different spe- cial committees and official bodies as he is. A glance at his record reveals that he is a member of the Nashville Plaza commission, the New Bern (N. C.) committee, the library of congress site commission, vice chairman of the George Washington bicentennial, a member of the Ohio river canalization committee, the George Rogers Clark memorial commission, chairman of the joint committee on the library and vice president of the Interparliamentary Union, One wonders when he has time for all these in addition to his regular duties as a senator. Poison of World War in China ‘Trying to make sense out of thg late news from China is an almost impossible job. Battle, murder and sudden death seem to have been let loose once more on a whole- sale scale, with the city of Changsha coming in for the most attention; but what it is all about, which faction is which, and what the upshot is likely to be are questions that cannot easily be answered. ‘The one thing that stands out is that China's long per- jod of turmoil is nowhere near an end. A few years ago the emergence of the Nationalist: party made it look as if some sort of order would be maintained. Now the sit- uation looks just as bad as ever, and the one safe bet is that there will be a great deal more violence and blood- shed before China gets a rest. s Changsha was looted by an army said to be under “Red” control. At this distance its leaders look very much like ordinary bandits; they act like them, whether they are inspired by a desire for money or by a yen for communism, and it is very hard to find any definite set of principles back of any of the revolutionary movements in that country. That, of course, is what makes the whole business so discouraging. Really, though, the mess isn’t quite as puzzling as it seems. f, In a general way, it is probably true that China, along World war. That final catastrophe brought on by the militaristic habits of imperial-minded white men was an even greater cataclysm than we usually suppose. Its reverberations have not died away yet, and it will be a long time until they do. ‘The World war was a most powerful ferment. It not only changed the map of Europe; it loosed on the world a flood of new ideas and new movements, and they are working powerfully. It brought bolshevism to the sur- face, and the bolshevist undoubtedly is at least partly re- sponsible for China's trouble. It filled India with a de- sire for freedom, as England is discovering to her dis- may. From the Nile to the Yellow sea it stirred men up, broke down old customs and routines and deposited a What the final solution will be no man can say. We can understand things better, however, if we recognize the fact that the trouble in the Orient today is largely an outgrowth of the war. It will be a long, long time before the explosion that was touched off 16 years ago stops re- echoing. ‘ His activities as a senator are many and varied.

This right-about-face reform movement was reported by the leaders of the Dancing Masters of America in ses- sion at the Hotel Commodore yesterday, with the predic- tion that this “present trend” was rapidly eliminating ‘strenuous” petting in parked cars. “The long skirts are back of it all,” explained Walter U. Soby, secretary-treasurer of the Dancing Masters of they tried to cavort just as they had with short skirts. | They galloped around the dance floors and got squeezed | by their partners. Due to all this strenuous and excite- ment, I am told that many of them spent more time in parked cars than on the dance floor. “But all that was hard on long skirts. The girls didn't brighter ones began to catch on. They realized that to make the exciting new styles effective they would have to change their manners.” ~ “Then along came radio crooning,” added Thomas M. Sheedy, president of the organization that keeps its fin- gers “on the pulse of America’s dancing.” “You see this erconing has very slow rhythms. It's soft and senti- | mental. Strangleholds and galloping just don’t match up | with it. With the long dresses to make the girls look | dignified and sweet and music to make them feel that wey, the rough-handed gyrating sheiks have simply been forced out of fashion.” The time is ripe for swaying, graceful motions, the dancing masters believe.

Since the autocratic prerogatives of monarchs began falling into disrepute or decay—the barons of Runnymede had a good deal to do with that— Popularly elected legislatures like parliaments and con- gresses have held the purse-strings in their hands. The system of making the chosen spokesmen of the people both the raisers and the spenders of national funds has come to be of the very essence of democratic govern- ment. Now ccmes no less a peracnage than Andre Tar- dieu, premier of France, and says the system is all wrong. Speaking at Nancy last Sunday M. Tardieu declared in substance that instead of safeguarding taxpayers’ wel- fare,-as it was designed to do in dts original conception, the French parliament had become an agency for increas- ing expenditure to benefit a particular, instead of the general, interest. M. Tardieu did not specifically ad- vocate greater fiscal power for the government of the day, but he plainly indicated that a French prime minister and his cabinet are better qualified to take care of the country’s till than a group of political fac- poses of their own. We here in the United States are not unfamiliar with the conditions which inspired M. Tardieu’s views on parliamentary profligacy. Log-rolling and pork-barrel- ing since time immemorial have beer! features of Ameri- can national finance. The establishment. of the budget system has visibly failed to arrest periodical raids on Uncle Sam's strong bgx. The economy pleas of presi- dents and secretaries of the treasury only infrequently prevail against the demands of congress for distribution of huge slices of federal pie among special interests. Sometimes these interests are farmers, sometimes vet- erans, sometimes hamlets, towns or cities in quest of purely local river and harbor improvements. M. Tardieu said at Nancy that recent French parliamen- tary demands for special interests account for $160,000,000 in @ total national expenditure of $3,000,000.000, which is The bunny hug, strangehold and wiggling whirlwind! & tests of parents and preachers are being ousted at last—!| & America. “When the flappers first put them on last fall} aT light were the wierd, ghostly Tigureg of the monks, closely wrapped in their gowns, with long black beards and mushroom locks, some sitting close to the little window ofthe chapel, where the service was going on, some lying about in groups, like the figures of the three apostles in Raphaels pic- ture of the Transfiguration... .

Others wish to obtain foods containing iodine. Others ask for lists to grow strong teeth, or to make children grow tall. From the great number of such letters coming to me from reaedrs all over the United States and Canada, I am able to keep my finger on the pulse of public in- terest, and I know that the subject of the minerals in foods has an ever increasing appeal. A certain amount of the different elements in your food is essential. The amount needed is usually small, but the trouble is that many people live on a@ diet that is deficient in one or from readers all ‘over the United example, many children do not obtain enough calcium in their food to bring about a good development of bone and they grow up so that they are short of stature or susceptible to some of the diseases which occur when not enough calcium is used. Whenever too many of the refined foods are used and not enough of the fresh fruits and vegetables, there is @ great likelihood of deficiency in some of the important elements. In other people, even when the ele- ments are eaten, there seems to be an inability to assimilate certain of the minerals in sufficient quantity to maintain health. This is essentially true of individuals who are suffering from acidosis, as it seems that some of the alkaline elements are destroyed by the blood before they do any real good in the body. Patients who are unable to assim- ilate ‘the mineral elements in food can nearly always overcome this ten- dency by using a fasting regimen to eliminate the excess toxins and acids, after which they may be able to as- similate the necessary elements. Many people make the mistake of trying to find the needful mineral elements in the refined form in medi- cines, drugs or diluted pure chemicals. The kody is rarely, if ever, ble to use them in such a crude form. It is a much better plan to use foods which naturally carry these elements. In plant or animal foods the elements are so combined and concentrated that they are most easily assimilated. Sometime ago I published two articles which gave a list of different elements needed by the human body ‘and told something of their purpose, and flso a list of the foods containing each element. I have had these articles reprinted and will be glad to BEGIN RERE TODAY JUDITH GRANT, loves ALAN ST! who ts also went aways loves Judith, Judith in studying rich BRUCE GIDEON wants to tar her in a musical show, al: Stcyne warns her former teacher, GUAR' us. cently killed in an auto accident.

M. asks: “will you please give me a cure for my daughter's running ears? She has had the flu and ever since her ears have been running.” Answer: The discharge from your daughter's ears will stop more quickly if you will give her a diet which will cure her catarrhal tendency. The treatment necessary cannot be de- scribed in the limited space of this column. If you will write me again, giving your full name and address I will send instructions. Bread and Milk Question: K.L. writes: “Please give your opinion of a lunch of bread and milk (hot o: cold). Are puddings, such as cornstarch, tapioca or ricet well balanced luncheon foods?” Answer: Try using Melba toast with ilk in place of plain bread. You will find it more palatable and wholesome. Puddings must be made with sugar, and as sugar and starch are never a good combination, it is far better when starches are used to use them in some other way without the addition of sugar. Uric Acid Question: Mrs. B. writes: “I am not supposed to eat beef because of the uric acid. Could I eat the soup made from the beef?” Answer: Almost any protein food forms uric acid, and you would prob- ably get more of it from the soup aadefof the beef than from the beet itself, The trouble is not because the uric acid is formed by the food, but from the inability to eliminate it from the body because of a general condi- tion of acidosis, or some organic dis- ease. This can sometimes be cured by the correct fasting and dieting regimen. If you will send rie more information about your trouble, to- gether with postage to cover mailing costs, I will be glad to give you more detailed advice.
