Logan Payne Co. CHICAGO NEW YORE BOSTON Cheer Through the Darkness One of the biggest men in modern America is Walter S. Gifford, president of the American Telephone and Telegraph company. He has risen from obscurity to a point where he sits in the councils of the mighty and his words are heard with respect. | Place doesn’t always mean ability but in Gifford’s case it seems to have no other significance, for if reports are true the man has no pride in the place he holds. He is too busy concentrating on the job to be done. There is a lot of concentrating necessary when one is the head of one of the world’s largest corporations. In view of the character of the man, therefore, it will be cheering to many of us to hear his views on current business problems. Speaking to the members of the As- sociated Press at New York Monday, Gifford said: “I know that there are right now several mil- lion men and women who want to work but are unemployed in this country. I have spent a good part of the winter helping to raise money to provide work for the unemployed in this city. But as bitter a picture as that is, it does not change the fact that our industrial civilization has brought us within sight of a democracy of well-being, and has crystallized our intention to see it accomplished. “Before machines added to man’s ability to produce, the cycles of depression were caused by underproduction. Years came when there was not enough to go round—when people died of cold, hunger and disease in such numbers that the world accepted Malthus’ theory. The condition of having people out of work in a country that has more of everything than it needs is, humanly speaking, a vast advance over having people with- out clothes, food or shelter in a country that has not enough of the essentials to go round. Before the era of the capitalistic industrial democracy there was no escape from the perlodic calamities of underproduction except in those places where people could find virgin territories to exploit and in those only for comparatively short periods. “American democracy is founded on the particl- pation of all the people in government, in the benefits of education, and in the well-being made possible by ample production.” ‘There is nothing remarkable in that statement and yet it has the earmarks of common sense. Sometimes there is little difference between plain horse sense and downright genius, too. For, after all, Mr. Gifford is right. The problems which we have today are the “problems of plenty,” as a leading Bismarck citizen phrased it in an address recently. Adjustment and readjustment are slow pro- cesses, for it takes time to reconcile the human mind to new conditions. It took centuries for mankind to over- come the problems of stark want and of always-imminent disaster. The job was accomplished by use of the new tool of mass production, It is not inconceivable that the genius which created and used that instrument will find a method of controlling it. At any rate, the problem presented is one less filled with torture, doubt, despair and agony than the problems which confronted our forefathers. A Pioneer Laid to Rest Bismarck mourns today as Arthur Van Horn, pioneer} citizen and builder, is laid to rest. During a long and active life Mr. Van Horn was an ‘active force for progress in the Missouri Slope country. Active in civic affairs, he gave unstintingly of his time, money and effort to make Bismarck a bigger and a better city. It was he who designed and helped to con- struct some of the city’s most imposing structures and for many years he was the executive head of the state board having the licensing of architects in charge. Scores of school and other public buildings through- out western North Dakota testify to his genius as an architect and his skill as a planner. No man in the history of the state has left more monuments to his activities while alive and long after his death value and benefit will continue to be derived from the services he has rendered. Arthur Van Horn's life history should serve as an inspiring example to the young men who, in the natural course of time, have come up to share the augmented burdens which he once carried alone, T’ll Write a Book Joseph Well, self-styled “King” of confidence-men, says he is going to retire and write a book. Mr. Weil has long been known to the police of Chicago, too well and painfully known, for he has caused them many sleepless nights. It might be more accurate to ssy that he would have caused them sleepless nights were @ troublesome fellow. Everytime a policeman sew Kim he looked to see if Mr. Weil's hands were in his own pockets or in the pockets of the man standing next to him. In short, i¢ may safely be observed that Mr. Weil ‘was 2 thorn in the flesh, a hairshirt on the back of the forces of lew and order. ‘The abdication of Mr, Weil came at a time when he could hardly be permitted to retire from the limelight, in jail and it was their desire moment to take him before a magistrate and have that official say harsh words to him. That probably will come later. Sometimes kings have e difficult time, even after they decide to mend thelr ways and abandon thelr gore evidently 4s something merry. and roguigh about pieces about him, It was they. who made. bim an unof- Piclal king, perhaps, and it was they to whom ho con- 1.00 uneventful, To be perfectly frank, his passage through do next, he announces he will write a book, “like au] deposed monarchs.” All of which may be true or just an intriguing bit of nonsense, but whatever it is the honest individual would do well to steer clear of Mr. Weil and his ilk. The only real retirement his kind knows comes when a stern judge, | with small sense of humor, says something nasty such as, for instance, “10 years in the state penitentiary.” We Entertain a King For the first time, perhaps, since some long-forgotten aboriginal king trod our sod, North Dakota entertains a ruling monarch. The visit of King Prajadhipok of Siam was brief and this state was a necessity rather than an act of desire. His one aim was to get to New York as soon as possible and there obtain relief from the ailment which threatens him with blindness. | The little brown man from the Far East was too ill to show himself to the North Dakota crowds and even if he were feeling fit it is improbable that he would have done so. After all he is one of the few living men who rules over a nation with absolute power. i It was something of a pity that Prajadhipok could not be put on display for the benefit of those few persons who have a tendency to worship royalty and all that is con- nected with it. Even the most confirmed sycophant could have seen little cause for adulating a frail chap weighing less than 100 pounds and with few evidences of virility about him. To impress an American as a king it is almost necessary to look and act like a king, and anyone would have difficulty doing that if he failed to tip the scales at a more respectable figure. A monarch need not be Falstaffian but he should be sizable to make an! impression. | Nevertheless, the strong points of our royal visitor should not be overlooked. Reigning over what probably was one of the most backward sections of the globe, he has gone modern with a vengeance and has done much to improve the lot of the people. Having despotic power,| he has declined to use it except in a benevolent man- ner. This is to his credit and it confirms his claim to) kingship in the eyes of the civilized world. It seems safe to say, however, that he would have difficulty obtain- ing recognition were he not the head of a ruling house. Somehow, the average American is tempted to chuckle a bit at the idea of a little brown man, be he “Light of Asia” or what-not, enforcing his kingship over people of Nordic birth. A Real Safety Example An example in safety work that is well worth emulation is afforded by the Union Pacific Railroad system. The April issue of its magazine is devoted to that subject from the standpoint of the men who are charged with the company’s safety activities, A car department in its railroad shop worked 300 men for six years and three months without an accident caus- ing the loss of as much as a day's time—another group of 218 men employed in roundhouse worked 732 con- secutive days without a single lost-time injury—600 men worked two years on @ $5,000,000 depot construction proj- ect without a single fatality—during 1930 a total of 845 of the company’s foremen completed a record of seven consecutive years without an accident to any of the em- ployes in their department—during the past 20 years personal injuries at one of the company’s locomotive shops have been reduced from an average of 50 to an average of 4 per month; a reduction of more than 90 per cent. ‘ ‘These are some of the high lights of the company’s safety record They are cited because they show, better than any argument, what continuous, conscientious work can do to reduce accidents in even hazardous industries. There is no secret to safety, nor any golden road to ac- cident prevention—it is a matter of unremitting, intel- ligent effort, over period of time. And the work done pays for itself over and over again—in more contented workers, in greater and better production, and in less wasted time. Editorial Comment Editortals printed below show the trend of thought by other editors, They Bre published without regard to whether they agree or Glsagree with ‘The une's poll A Rubber Chicken Comes Home (Barron's Weekly) - Crude rubber, at 6.5 cents a pound, is selling at the lowest price in modern times, Whatever influences may have contributed towards this price that appears ruinous for producers, the whole thing harks back to an attempt at official control of price and output. If another lesson of the futility of “orderly marketing” of staple products is needed, here it is, ‘The Stevenson plan of orderly marketing appeared to be as near perfect as any plan of that order, might be.’ The planters of British East Indies had a monopoly of rubber production, so the consuming world could be made to pay much higher prices. This was to be accomplished by the familiar “orderly marketing” slogan of controlling distribution according to demand and supply. were to be taxed so as to make the control effectual and permit the officials in charge of marketing to feed the supply to consumers in such a way as to make them dic- tators of the price. The plan worked beautifully, at least for a time.. When it went into effect, Nov. 1, 1932, rubber was selling at 20 cents, but in time it went to $1.20, and great was the producers’ acclaim of the plan, But alas for hopes! On its sixth anniversary it passed out of exist- ence. The main reason is that the high prices stimulated producers in other countries to plant. The theory of “orderly marketing” of non-perishable products by controlling the flow, snd therefore the price, is as catching as measles.

Now she pulls this hot one about me.” Dolly Dawson had a swell sense of humor and she laughed. “Speaking of the devil,” I said and directed Dolly’s glance with my eyes.

The first is to chew the starch well so that it is thoroughly permeated by the saliva. Much of this digestion will take place in the mouth and will be actually continued in the stomach, provided the stomach does not contain too much acid. If one eats only starchy foods, the acid gastric juices are not stimulated to flow, and will allow the digestion of the starch to continue for some time. The second precaution is to avoid using, with the starches, foods which Pwould too graitly stimulate the acid secretions of the stomach. When one eats cheese, meat, or other protel foods, the stomach immediately be- gins to fill with the acid gastric juice which is essential to the digestion of proteins, The acid secretions of the stomach are also stimulated by the use of spices and by the taste of acid fruits or vinegar. For this reason it 4s well to avoid the use of meats, fresh fruits or vinegar at meal contaihing starches. It is an advantage to use cooked and raw non-starchy vegetables whenever you use starchy foods. ‘These vegetables supply bulk for the intestines and at the same time do not stimulate the formation of gastric juice as does meat. These vegetables combine readily with efther a starch or a protein meal and should be used with both in order to provide the mineral salts and vitamins as well as. to satisfy the appetite. Here are some good specimen meals properly combined: f Starch Meal One starchy food such as potatoes, rice, macaroni or bread, two or three cooked non-starchy vegetables, and one or two raw leafy vegetables. Good Protein Meal One protein food, such as meat, fish, eggs, milk or cheese, and two or three cooked non-starchy vegetables and some raw salad vegetables; stew- ed fruit may be used for dessert. ‘Those who have strong digestive organs may not appreciate the value of ‘the right food combinations be- cause they sometimes eat meals which are very badly combined and appar- Colman, but only on condition that he never again see an actress with see her again and complications fol- low rapidly.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Acne Question: Mrs. B. M. writes: “My daughter has what the doctors term the worst case of acne they have ever seen. Her face is a mass of scars and pimples. She has fasted and dieted & no effect until now we do not know what to do next, as various skin spe- cialists have failed to help her.” Answer: Acne is sometimes very difficult to correct during a certain in | period of life and requires much time and persistent treatment to entirely overcome it. The skin should be cieansed in the morning and evening with warm water and soap. An enema should be used every day, and the patient should use large quanti- ties of the bulky vegetables as out- lined in my article on “Stuffing for Constipation.” Local treatments with the actinic or ultra-vielet light are often helpful in toughening the skin but are not always necessary if the other instructions are followed care- fully. The diet should not contain such rich foods as chocolate, cream, malted milk, candies, cheese, nuts, ete, Fasting in Disease Question: A. F. asks: “Has a wa- ter fast any advantage over a fruit fast in certain conditions and dis- eases? In using the tomato juice, has the fresh tomato and its pulp any ad- vantage over the canned tomato Juice?” Answer: I haye not found that the water fast has any advantage over a fruit juice fast except in a few cases where the patient has difficulty in Aandling the fruit juice. I sometimes give water fasts for three or four days before the fruit fast, Elimination seems to be facilitated if the pulp is uot used with the orange juice or to- mato juice fast and, of course, the pulp should not be used if there is any inflammation of the intestines. There is no gdvantage in using the raw tomatoes over the canned toma- to juice.
