Logan Payne Co. CHICAGO NEW YORK BOSTON Simplified Spelling Some of ihe most brilliant minds the world has known | have been possessed by persons who were poor spellers) and it may be recognition of this fact which is stimulat-| ing simplified spelling organizations to renewed activity. | These folk, organized in both America and England, ! include in their membership such well-known names as Sir Robert Baden-Powell and Irving Fisher, famous Yale | economist. They have but one object which is the elim-) ination of so-called useless or confusing letters from the spelling of current words. They agree that it would be a lot easier and better to! spell words as they sound rather than to bother with | looking up the right way or taking the chance of muis- spelling it. The claim is made that this idea, if uni~ versally applied, would give a quick and easy solution to “the problem of an international auxiliary language.” | The new language which the simplified spelling pro- | duces is called Anglic and is very little different trom; that which was in use in Shakespeare's time. Anyone who has had occasion to browse through works in Old} English will recall how difficult they were to under-/ stand, even though the words used weve practically the; same as most of those in the language today. Ore of the! troubles was with the spelling. Just by way of illustrating the charms of Anglic, the simplified spelling society, in its magazine, reprints Lincoln's Gettysburg Address as follows in part: “Forskor and sevn yeerz agoe our faacherz braut forth on this kontinent a nue naeshon, konseevd in liberty, and dedikaeted to the prop- ozishon that aul men ar kreaeted ecquel. “Now we ar engaejd in a great sivil wor, tcst- ing whedhr that naeshon, or eny naeshon s0e€ konseevd and soe dedikaeted, kan long enduer. ‘We ar met on 2 graet batl-feeld of that wor. We have kum to dedikaet a porshon of that feeld as a fienl resting-plaes for those who heer gaev their Hevs that that naeshon miet liv. It 1s aultogedhr fiting and propr that we shood do this.” f And so on down to “guvernment of the peepl, by the peepl, for the peepl, shall not perish from the urth.” | ‘That the idea ever will get far in its entirety seems im- probable, although no one questions the progress made by such words as “tho,” “thru” and others. The language is constantly changing and revisions of ortho- graphy as well as of syntax are brought about by time, just as the language we spell and know has changed greatly since Shakespeare's day. Had the simplified spellers gained prominence while we still were in school we should have been keen for their success. As it is we shall have to adopt the time-tried at-) titude of the cynical. We shall wait and see and continue) to worry about how to spell—how do you spell that word| we always misspell? | { | Our Liquor If federal agents are correct about Al Capone's income, it is not hard to believe that last year $2,800,000,000 was spent on liquor in the United States. These figures were) compiled by the Association against Prohibition and are challenged by the American Business Men's Prohibition Foundation. The Foundation cites, in reduttal, that in the peak liquor years of 1914-16 the United States spent only $3,500,000,-| 000 for liquor. This of course proves little. Bootleg: prices of liquor consumed today are double, treble and even more than in the days of 1916. The figure $2,800,-) 000,000 does not necessarily mean that more liquor 1s consumed now than in the peak days referred to; It probabily means that the public is paying a high prem- ium for a very low grade of stuff. That is about all the figures can prove if they can be relied upon at all. Every one knows, however, who has made any honest! study of the liquor situation, that there is more drink- ing among the very young now than in the peak days of 1914-16, Then high school and college students in very small numbers drank. The hip flask was hardly/ known. There also is drinking today in circles which would not have tolerated the practice before the days; of prohibition. These are conditions brought about by/ prohibition. Those opposed to the liquor traffic meet this situation with the argument that there are social betterments as @ result of prohibition which offset the evils. New Trade Era in 1933 i He is bold indeed who will prophesy on trade conditions these days. Yet Dr. David Friday, economist and adviser: to the treasury department, told 500 St. Louis business: executives the other day that a new trade era was due in 1933. By December of this year, he says, industrial oufput should be up 25 per cent. Here is his theory: The fact that employment once more is pick- ing up will make people more ready to buy goods will accelerate the recovery when once it jing. It costs fifty cents to view the city from that eleva-| | marked decrease due to the same situation. Less Dirty Work at the Crossings | ‘There is less dirty work at the crossings these days it} the safety experts are correct. The latest data show | that motor accidents at railroad crossings are declining! both in number and severity, even though the total num-| ber of accidents and the death rate from motor mishaps} of all sorts still is mounting. | This reversal of form, according to the bulletin Pub- | lished by the North Dakota state railroad board, is “in| PSrt due to the increased cooperation of the public” in exedcising caution while approaching and passing over railroad tracks. The other factor is the elimination ot! dangerous railroad crossings as rapidly as time and| money will permit. Just how effective these measures have been is shown! by the figures. In 1930, the number killed at railroad| crossings was 2,020 or 465 less than in 1929, This was! a decrease of nearly 19 per cent. The number injured was 5,517, a decrease of 1,287. The total number of such accidents in 1930 was 4,853 as compared with 5,975 in 1929, The fact that these reductions occurred while the total of all other fatalities in motoring accidents increased four per cent is proof of two things. One is that the public can learn if the lesson is repeated often enough and taught in strong enough terms. The other is that! the public can protect itself if it wills to do so. H It still is much too early to brag about our carefulness as a nation when as many as 2,020 persons die in cross- ing accidents in @ year, but the comparative figures! give cause for hope. As soon as the public learns to drive safely, sanely and with due regard for the rights of others the more terrifying curve of highway accidents will take a similar downward trend. | | Tower an Asset | Almost 100,000 people a month visit the tower of the! Empire State building in New York, the tallest office| structure in the world. They pay a dollar for the view! over Gotham and the owners of the building estimate, that the revenue from this source alone will be about | $1,000,000. After the novelty has worn off, it is be-| lieved that the revenue per year from tower fans will/ reach $750,000 or almost two per cent of the cost of the building. This record is almost equaled by the Woolworth butld-| i tion. Visitors to that tower have been contributing some $136,000 a year for seventeen years. This is an annual} return of more than one per cent on a valuation of} $9,000,000. Towers pay if they are high enough and the view 1s interesting. A Queer Case | When gunmen fired a series of shotgun slugs into the, jail at Dayton, Ohio, Monday, they opened a queer case in the annals of American crimedom, for it appears to be the first time on record that the forces. of lawless-| ness have attacked the supporters of law and order in their own stronghold. (i It may have been a gesture of contempt and defiance or it may have been an effort to kill someone already in jail who might be expected by the gunmen to reveal facts concerning their operations. A third reason may have been a desire to scare the policemen thoroughly and to convince them that un-| happy consequences may result if they get too vigorous. Whatever it may portend, the occurrence doesn’t look very fortuitous for the civilian population of the Ohio city. Popularity of Fort Lincoln | Federal officials who seek to abandon Fort Lincoln| should note the popularity of the post among applicants/ for the citizens’ military training camp. The quota; there is filled while some other posts throughout the} nation have many vacancies. There are few posts in the nation so ideally located as Fort Lincoln or where military training can be given any more effectively. That military plant represents a great investment and is in good condition. Few posts of the nation afford better housing conditions. Those who control military policies at Washington should be slow to close a post such as Fort Lincoln, Its; many advantages will bear the closest kind of investi-| gation. Our Tariff Walls Canada has answered the Smoot-Hawley tariff bill by setting up retaliatory schedules. American capital has been forced to build factories in Canada so as to check loss of profitable accounts and to profit by the free trade policies of Great Britain. A recent statement from the Department of Commerce} shows that Canada’s trade with the United States fell to} $44,850,000 last April as compared with $64,000,000 a| year ago. Exports to Argentine from the United States show a They have} fallen from $210,000,000 in 1929 to an estimated §60,- 000,000. Food for thought in these days of unemploy- ment. Editorial Comment Editorials printed, below show the trend of thought by other editors. ‘They ere published without regard ribs to whether they agree or disagree with The une's policies. The Question of Wages (New York Times) In the Special Features Section of The Times today will be found an article full of information about how the wages of labor have fared during the period of de- pression. No subject has been more widely discussed. On. no question have there have been sharper differences of opinion regarding both the facts and the policy which ought to be pursued. Inquiries were addressed to The Times correspondents in various parts of the country, and their answers, as printed today, abound in concrete! material. The figures come from many cities, and from states both manufacturing and agricultural. The show- ing is not uniform. In some regions there have been con- siderable reductions in wages, often with the consent of the employes. In most others the old scale has been maintained, at least nominally. Of course, with many workers necessarily laid off for a time, and with others working only three or four days a week, the total payroll has been cut down. But in general, it is fair to say, the great companies and the leading employers have kept their tacit pledge not to take advantage of the hard times by lowering wages. The details-are ‘given in the article referred to, which is sure, on account of its timely and pressing interest, to attract much attention. Economists and practical men are not all agreed that it has been wise, especially in view of the marked fall in the cost of living, to insist upon the maintenance of high wages. But all agree that in it there is evidence not only of good faith, but of hopefulness for the future. It is confidently expected that, with the return of pros- perity, the old scale of wages can be kept in force with benefit to all concerned. Labor organizations and the great body of the employed have faced the hard problem with fortitude and common sense. They naturally strive to hold what they have gained, and look forward to the time when their high rates of pay will be justified. Meanwhile, is it not fair to ask of them that they con- lin the amateur and | groups. WS New York, June 13—In this town, where so many people are supposed to so to “the devil,” it's surprising how many “angels” can be found who are Willing to perch on the point of an electric buib! Fact is, in this day and age. few theatrical producers put up their own money for their own shows. The so- called “smart boys” generally find other sources. Years ago, the Fro- hams and Belascos and all such backed their own shows and person- ally attended to the casting and di- recting. Purchases of big theater chains established “bookings” all over the nation and Broadway became more and more a real estate proposi- tion, with groups holding their houses for rentals. 4 Now it so hapens that in this than’s town there are certain gents who have wives, daughters and girl friends obsessed with the notion that they are actresses. It merely remains for a play to come along, find a producer, put up the money—and on she goes. The results are generally more than slightly sad. Time and again, I have attended performances where wives would have been far better off back in the kitchen and where sweethearts would have been better off in rumble seats. At any rate, a certain stage pro- duction opened within the past few weeks. Up in the Bronx there was a proud father. He had made a nice bit of money in business and he had @ daughter who had been quite a riot little theater Why couldn’t she have her Why not in- name on Broadway? deed! Considering the nature of the play, a@ mere matter of $10,000 or there- abouts was required. An so the performance opened on Broadway, with first night critics on hand and, of course, scores of friends from “up town.” When it was all over, the proud mama and papa rushed to the stage, followed by a large parade of gushers, and a good time was had by all at the get-together that followed: ‘No harm done, as you can see. There rarely is, except to some youngster's ego and some angel’s pocketbook. “Look, look,” the proud mother re- Peated, “Just to think I should have a daughter that is a leading lady in the theater... a big star.” The next morning, I picked up the newspapers and read the reviews with more than passing interest. They were 100 per cent anti! The first night crowd had not been particularly enthusiastic ... often it had laughed at the wrong time. Yes, the daughter had appeared as a How Does He Get That Weigh? Daily Health Service Removal of Cataract on Eye Is Now Simple Operation Affected Lenses Occur Most Often in People 50 to 60 Years Old By DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor, Journal of the American Med- ical Association. Again and again people have been told that the human eye is like a camera. It has a.lens; it hat a shut- ter, which is the iris; the pupil is the hole in the shutter through which the light enters, and at the back of the eye is the retina or the sensitized Plate on which the image is cast. The lens of the eye is a crystal clear tissye like a magnifying glass. Obviously ‘anything that causes the Jens to become cloudy prevents the passing of the light carrying the image through the pupil and back to the retina. When the lens becomes cloudy or opague the condition is call- ed cataract. A cataract is not a growth or tumor. Such growths or tumors may occur in the eye, but they constitute an entirely different con- dition. A cataract of the lens is like a frosted glass through which one wishes to see. x * * Most cases of cataract occur in peo- ple between 50 and 60 years of age, but the.condition may occur in young~ er people. under various circumstances, There are children born with catar- acts; workmen may have pieces of fly- ing steel or glass pass into the eye and rupture the lens, which results in cataract. Children get their eyes in- jured in play and cataracts may fol- low. For years it has been known to phy- sicians that loss of Vision due to cat- aract can be helped by surgical oper- ations which are relatively simple, in- deed which have now developed to such a competent form that they are quite safe in the vast majority of in- stances, The operation is due under @ local anesthetic in older people. It is carried out under strictly clean conditions; the procedure is practi- cally painless and the great majority of those operated on get back useful vision. It must be realized at the same time that there is no treatment of cataract by the dropping of various substances into the eye, by injections under the skin, or by any similar method which has been proved to be a Safe and suitable method of treating the disturbance. * ee After a cataract is removed the Person wears what are known as cat- aract glasses. These glasses are made so that they help to focus the image Properly on the retina. The person who has been unable to see for some time because of the development of a cataract, who has been unable to play golf or to get about and who then recovers his sight by the simple operation that any competent spécial- ist in diseases of the eye can perform, is one of the most thankful of all peo- ple for the benefits of modern medical science, In a recent discussion of the sub- ject in Hygeia, Dr. Louis Lehrfeld urges the widest dissemination of the knowledge that people who have lost their sight by cataract can be helped by this technic. No doubt, there are thousands of afflicted aged people who are helpless because they never learned that vision can be restored after cataracts have formed. leading lady in the bright light’s belt. And then what? Critics com- mented on how the audience had laughed—when there was no intent to be funny. They had mighty little to say that will help her get ahead. One wonders what happens around the family tables when these reviews are received and read. Yet there seems to be no cure! Year after year, they go on doing the same thing. There's at least one a month in season, and several when the season begins and ends. And to me, at least, it’s one of the things Booth Tarkington should write about in that vein he has used in de- scribing some of the most pathetic family dinners I have ever read about. : GILBERT SWAN.

The manager made the statement in an address prepared for delivery at the American institute of cooperation. Milnor said that during the sum- mer of 1929, cash wheat sold at “ruin- ous discounts relative to options and paid tolls in millions of dollars of added expenses and demurrage on cars which had to be held on tracks for weeks and months before they could be unloaded” because of “de- plorable” congestion. Holdings Are Shifted “In order to avoid a repetition of conditions surrounding the previous season,” he said, “the Farmers Na- tional Grain corporation, in conjunc- tion with the Grain Stabilization corporation, began to shift its huge holdings irom every point that held the slightest indication of congestion. Thus, in ample time, millions of bu- shels of old crop wheat were gotten completely out of the way of the huge onrushing movement of new crop grains. “Certainly no ividual private agency or any group of private agen- cies could have accomplished these results. “The result actually achieved by /|creating this space and permitting new wheat to be properly merchan- dised and housed actually made a difference in value to the producer of anywhere from seven to 15 cents @ bushel. Board Seeks Equality “In spite of untoward conditions,” Milnor said, “the active antagonism of the great bulk of our vested grain interests and their exchanges or boards of trade, we have pursued our course . . . to encompass the purpose of the marketing act; namely, ‘to Place agriculture on a basis of econ- omic equality with other industries.’ “The Farmers’ National, he said, “has handled much more than 100,- 000,000 bushels of the producers grain during the present crop season, neces- sitating establishment of merchandis- ing agencies in every important pro- ducing center and also selling agen- cies at points strategically located with reference to consuming terri- tories. “To some extent,” he said, “our pro- gram migat be said to be in its em- bryonic state, as naturally much ad- ditional expansion confronts us.” 104 ARE GRADUATED BY MINOT COLLEGE Dr. Henry Lawrence South- wick, Boston Educator, Is Commencement Speaker Minot, N.
