[eee ERIE (Official City, State and County Newspaper) j Foreign Representatives } SMALL, SPENCER, LEVINGS fl & BREWER Cncorporated) CHICAGO NEW YORK BOSTON Faith in Humanity Civilization, says Professor Kenneth 6. Latourette of Yale, may be on the verge of a new “dark ages.” Within @ few months, he says, society may collapse and its fragments may be drawn into a whirlpool of misery and chaos unparalleled in modern his- tory. ‘What makes his prediction so omi- fous is the fact that this scholar 1s not alone in his pessimism. Some of the wisest men of our time, looking to the future, can see nothing but @isaster. Any thinking man must have moments in which everything phead seems exceedingly gloomy. A comfort, however, is that things @re hardly ever quite as. bad as they @eem. Human beings, somehow, havé ® Way of seeing destruction lying in {wait just around the corner. They also, without realizing it, have a way of muddling through, a way of surviv- fing when survival seems highly im- probabie. And ‘one reason why the darkest; prophecies so seldom come true is probably that most of us, deep in our, hearts, do not really believe in them. Deeply embedded in man’s conscious- ness, illogical but enduring, is the un- spoken conviction that he is on earth, as the phrase used to go, for @ purpose; that he is slowly and painfully moving upward, and will continue to do so, not because he is ‘wise and far-seeing but simply be- cause he is riding a current that wells ‘up from the very fountainhead of the universe. ‘We seldom talk about that feeling. Bt is seldom expressed in public Bpeeches, in newspaper articles, in books or in magazines—and, when it fis, the intellectuals promptly laugh ft to scorn. Yet the feeling persists. No age has entirely lacked it. We are Confident of our destiny. And that confidence, in its turn, reeds courage; the courage which ‘enables the race to live through its ‘world wars, ite financial breakdowns, its disillusionments and its black ca- fastrophes. The abyss may lie just Bhead, but beyond it there is a new Blope to surmount, on which the light grill be clearer. That, or something like it, is what most of us believe. We may be Wwrong—but the belief at least keeps Bs in the fight. When Youngsters Drive One of the most disturbing traffic Becidents of the season is that re- ently recorded in Kansas City, where @n auto driven by. a 14-year-old boy Isnocked down and killed a pedestrian Bt a street intersection. x No youngster of 14, of gourse, or of @n age anywhere near 14, should ever be permitted to drive an automobile bn any public street. In this case, to be sure, the Jad is said to have been @riving without his parents’ consent; but that fact only adds to the weight of the object lesson. Parents must not only keep their ehildren out of the driver's seat, they smust see to it, very rigidly, that the suling is obeyed. When a child of that age does drive, and gets involved fn an accident, the major part of the esponsibility rests on his father and mother. Keeping child-drivers off the streets is primarily their job, not the police department's. Dreiser’s Investigation American public, very likely, would like to know whether there is any truth in the state of Kentucky's charges that Theodore Dreiser has been guilty of immoral conduct, crim- 4nal syndicalism, and so on. But. firét it would greatly prefer to learn whether there is any truth in Dreiser's charges against the Kentucky coal barons. Dreiser charges flatly that striking mainers’ homes are dynamited and burned, that children in the coal fields are dying at the rate of seven or eight @ week of undernourishment, fat local officials regard themselves Bs agents of the mine owners and that the pay of the miners has been forced own to 80 cents a day. , Those charges are exccedingly seri- ous. The public would like to know if any or all of them are true—and it is willing to let the counter-charges against Dreiser rest until it finds out. Danger of Lye One of the most excellent bits of advice ever issued for the housewife comes from Dr. Ohevalier Jackson, the famous specialist of the Temple University Medical Center in Phila- delphia. It has to do with lye—that useful household compound whicn Loan be, on occasion, extremely dan- gerous. | “Very few mothers,” says Dr. Jack- son, “realize that lye looks like sugar and is very tempting to a baby. If he sees it he is almost certain to put some in his mouth; and when this happens the child’s throat is fear- fully burned. Ulcers follow the burns; when the burns heal they leave scars that close the throat. The child will then die of starvation unless treat- ment is promptly instituted—and the treatment will take many months, sometimes @ year or more.” ?¢ That warning ought to be tacked up in every kitchen. If you have lye in the house, be sure that it is al- ways kept where no child can reach it] The Unwritten Law A recent well-publicized shooting has raised anow the question of the “unwritten law,” by which @ brother is held justified in killing a man who has betrayed his sister; and the com- ments of Judge Ben B. Lindsey are, perhaps, worth a little of -your con- sideration. “I have never yet,” says Judge Lindsey, “seen a case of that sort which could not be settled around the dinner table, or before some per- son who could act as advisor. The gitl might be persuaded to discon- tinue her associations with the man. If she loves him, or will not stop see- ing him, the couple should marry. But there's never an excuse for gun- Play in a problem of that kind.” ‘This, it seems to us, is @ neat little dose of common sense for a situation that is very seldom discussed calmly or rationally. Editorial Comment Eaiteriale printed below show the trend of thought by other edito: or disagree policies, Commissioner Eastman on Government Ownership (Railway Age) Joseph B. Eastman probably wields more real and effective power at the present time than any other man in the United States. Over no other in- dustry does any body exercise so much power as the Interstate Commerce Commission does over the railways, and never before in the commission's history has any of its members had an influence in its counsels remotely approaching that now exercised by Commissioner Eastman. The views expressed by a man who wields so much real power are very interesting and significant. On Nov. 7 Commissioner Eastman delivered an address entitled “Public or Private Ownership” before the American Academy of Political and Social Science at Philadelphia. ‘There ap- peared in the Railway Age of the same date an editorial entitled “Rail- road Freedom or Government Own- ership?” The extent to which Com- missioner Eastman agrees with the Railway Age regarding regulation by commission is indicated by the fol- lowing quotations made from his ad- dress: “The commissions must obtain the information upon which they act, not as executives inform themselves, but through the long drawn-out pro- cesses of judicial procedure. * * * Such procedure consumes time with the utmost prodigality, and labor and money as well. The burden falls alike upon the companies, the gov- ernment and the general public. Many such proceedings, especially when questions of valuation were in- volved, have dragged their long way through months and even @ears of time. “Furthermore, management in part through public regulators has other singularities. To be done efficiently it requires, like any other difficult undertaking, much accumulated knowledge, experience and acquired skill. Yet there is seldom an oppor- tunity for the prior training of com- missioners. As a rule they must ac- quire much of their special knowl- edge and skill after-they assume of- fice. They are also subjected to the hazard of reappointment at stated intervals. * * * It is no easy thing to find men who are fitted for the job and willing to undertake it, and when they are willing it may be chiefly with the hope that the job will prove a mere stepping-stone to more profitable occupation. The re- sult is that there are many ineffi- cient men in public regulation, and the turnover among those who are efficient is very great.” The FAUNRY: ASP has become con- vinced that Ing to the shortcom- ings of regulation by commission, the power of the commission must be ' 5 5 z. 5 3 in America use anything to pay ten: ure lucky.

Won't you let me make amends? Have some tea on the roof and perha) we can practice a bit—for tonight!” (Practice a bit, {ndeed—Mary thought. That’s clever of you.)

If “it is no easy thing to find men who are fitted for the job (of regu- lating) and willing to undertake it,” and if, owing to this and other rea- sons mentioned by Mr. Eastman, “there are many inefficient men in public regulation and the turnover among those who are efficient is very great,” why does Mr. Eastman as- sume that the same influences would not cause the same inefficiency in government management? The public rightly believes that more railroad freedom would be pre- ferable to government railroad man- agement, but the present interpreta- tion and application of laws intended to maintain private ownership, if continued, will make the maintenanc> of private ownership impossible. Holland, only some 12,000 square tightly, Even a less interested and astute person than The Fly would have caught the gesture and been promptly informed that the bag held valuables. Mary realized this even as her taut nerves betrayed her into the give-away gestures she regretted. The car stopped at her floor. “I'll see you tonight?” she said and moved to leave the car. ln pressing his invitation, De Lo- ma had stepped between her and the door. He was facing her, his hat in bis hands. As if just aware that ue was blocking her way, he murmured “Oh, pardon me!” and backed off the car. Mary stepped off, after him, It was the only thing she could do, although she realized with horror, even as she did so, that she was about to be left alone with the man there in the hall, The elevator operator was about to close the door when De Loma changed his plans abruptly, He lifted his hat to the girl and ‘stepped on the car again. “Tonight,” he said gallantly, and his bow was cut short as the door slammed and the car shot upward. It was only then that Mary, miles in itself, possesses a colonial empire 70 times as large. slightly dazed by the swiftness of what had happened, looked about and saw Bates, He was standing at one side, apparently waiting for a descending elevator. Hands in his trousers pockets, a key ring Jingling, a low whistle coming from his lips, he was apparently the most casual figure possible, “Ob,” Mary cried. “Oh!" She clasped the detective shamelessly about tho neck and kissed him a resounding smack on either dusty cheek. “My hero! How did you happen to be there~you saved me— I'm sure he meant to get off, but when he saw you he didn’t—” “Just waiting for an elevator, be- lieve it or not,” Bates replied. “But why—what's he following you for?” Mary told him in a whisper, Not that whispering now would do the least good. Bates looked grave. “You'd bet- ter stick pretty close to home base,” he warned. “Didn't know you were tting that out yet. I'm getting the boys organized now. Was just Going out to the yacht to see Hen- dricks.” He stopped and chewed his lip thoughtfully, “But if you've Bot that here, I'd better stick around.” THEY moved down the hall, talk- {ng in undertones. “I'm sorry!” Mary apologized. “But I thought he was room. And I had som to lock up and it Sood @ time as any—" “'S all right,” Bates muttered back. “You were 0. K. But you see I was right. He's on the prowl.” “Oh, maybe it just happened.

Ho raised the window, lay across its sill on ‘his back for some minutes and studied the surrounding windows, There was a fire-escape which zig- zagged downward some distance away—from which it would be pos- sible for a man to swing to the Small decorative tron balcony which enclosed the lower half of her win- dow. Bates pulled his head in, flushed with his efforts, and brushed off bis hands, “Well, I think you're safe enough from that direction,” he sald, and inspected the bathroom which ba no other door. “Now, lock your door when I go out and if you see or hear anything that frightens you I'll be right in the next room. Pound on the wall.” “Or telephone?” Mary suggested. Somehow the wall-tapping business sounded too Mata Hari—she sus- pected detectives of going in for theatrical behavior where theatri- cal behavior was not always strict- ly necessary. “And have your throat cut while you're trying to get the operator?” he said. “Come here and I'll show you how to lock this door.” Now that the necklace was im- mediately in his keeping, Bates was a different man from the loung- ing, lackadaisical “inventor” he had been impersonating for days, He manipulated tho locks swiftly, and Mary watched. When he went out she obeyed meekly—pushing all the various catches several times to make certain they locked. As a matter of fact, in pushing them about she became confused and when she at last felt herself satis: fled with them, she had really suc- ceeded in unlocking the door quite thoroughly. Mary did not realize this for some time, however, She had bathed, done her nails and her hair, and had just wriggled into the Paris dress, when a tap came at the door, She did not answer. The knob turned slowly. eee S the doorknob turned, Mary watched in fascinated terror. She picked up the first heavy object her hand touched—a silver jewel box from her dresser—and waited, ready to hurl it if the intruder were De Loma. The door opened and the Countess slipped in, looking backward into the hall, Ty “Oh!” Mary cried angrily. “You frightencd me half to deat! ‘The Countess signaled for silence. “Let me have it, quick!” she whis- pered, darting anxious glances the hall, “Bruce is in the bath.” “Have What? Oh, you mean the bracelet?” Mary asked. “Oh, my dear, I put it in the safe!” The Countess’ head jerked about; her shocked eyes fastened on Mary suspiciously. “You don’t think I’d leave it lying about, do you?” Mary laughed, mili- ly defensive. “In a hotel room?” ‘The Countess closed the door. The blazing eyes had narrowed. Slowly hands on hips, she idled forward? until she was within a foot of the girl, “So!” she hissed. “You think you will trick me, eh? I knew you would try that. Well, you will re- turn that bracelet to me now, or 1 will scratch your eyes out! Do you understand?” “Why—how awful you are!” Mary gasped in horror that was real enough. “What are you suggesting? Of course you will have your brace- let—in the morning!” “Tonight!” Mary shook her head inflexibly. The Frenchwoman breathed heav- fly for a minute, during which, Mary knew actual bodily fear of the tigress she had aroused. Then slowly “the other woman relaxed. A mocking smile curved the cor- ners of her mouth down, #Ob, nnno?” She rolled the con- |sonant fearsomefully. Mary turned indifferently to the mirror, touched her hair idly with her fingertips. Like a flash, a hand shot out and snatched the chamois bag lying on the dresser. The in- truder backed away swiftly to the door with it, laughing triumphantly. Mary threw herself at her but the other woman held her off, ripping open the talon fastener to plunge a swift white hand into the depths of the bag. She lifted her clenched hand from the bag and held it behind her while with the other she made an awkward search of the bag’s empt!- ness for the bracelet. Panting with disappointment, she threw Mary off to} teeth came together with a click. ©1931 BY NEA Serwce Ine spect the jewels she clutched. At sight of them her mouth fell open. “Oh, oh—how beautiful!” she breathed, rapturously. “So that is what they are Itke—the Jupiter rubies! And they are yours—" Un- consciously she emphasized “yours.” Mary nodded. “They are mine.” She held out her hand, “Give them to me, please.” ‘The Countess jerked the necklace back out of reach, Her eyes were coldly calculating. “Where is my bracelet?” “I told you! It’s in the sate,” Mary snapped. “Now give me those before I call the police.” Sulkily tho other walked past her to the dresser, jerked open its draw- ers, searched hastily among the contents, slammed them shut.

MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor, Journal of the American Medical Association The original vitamin B is now split up into two vitamins which have been called F and G, also vitamins Bi and B2, also vitamins B and G. Tn a recent survey of what we now know about vitamin G, Professor H. C. Sherman of Columbia university | emphasizes that it certainly is not a panacea for the prevention of prema- ture senility and the falling of hair. On the other hand, a lack of vitamin G in the diet will bring about a con- dition of malnutrition, which may contribute to premature sepility. In their studies of vitamins, the experts carry out most of their in- vestigations on rats. It has been es- | timated that a month-old rat corre- sponds to a child about three years ol@. If a rat one month old is plated on a diet which is efficient in every other way but deficient in vitamin G, it shows sooner or later a stunt- ing of its growth, usually accompa- nied by diarrhea. Then it develops @ sore mouth and falling of hair around the eyes or from the shoul- ders apd back. With this there gradually comes a generally weak i THE COMING OF EARLY SENILITY | Experiments on Rats Show Diet Important Factor condition, an apprehensive attitude and fairly sufficient disturbance of digestion to bring about death. 2 & & It has not been especially estab- lished that vitamin G is the pellagra- preventing vitamin. On the other hand, the conditions produced ky a deficiency of vitamin G are the type of condition appearing in pellagra; namely, rough, red areas of the skin, diarrhea and similar disturbances. It is quite likely that the body at birth contains some vitamin G ex- actly as it contains a store of other vitamins derived by the fetus from the body of its mother. Physicians now realize that the term “health” is a comparative term. There is a difference between buoy- ant or positive health, in which the human being is not only unaware of his body, but full of what the quacks call “vim, vigor and vitality,” and the condition of health which permits a person to do his work and take his ‘usual interest in life, but always just & little below par.
