(Official City, State and County Newspaper) Foreign Representatives SMALL, SPENCER, LEVINGS & BREWER (Incorporated) CHICAGO NEW YORK BOSTON More of Main Street A commentator remarks that one effect of current conditions is to give the country more of Main Street and Jess of Broadway. This is just another way of saying that the sound common sense which always has prevailed in the small towns and on the farms is making itself felt in national affairs. The contrast is not merely one between bread and butter, as repre- sented by Main Street, and apple- sauce as represented by Broadway. It is one between two manners of thinking and two sets of ideals. After all, Main Street represents one of the fundamental achievements of America and the true characteris- tics of the nation much more defi- nitely than does Broadway. Taken collectively, the Main Streets of the nation are infinitely larger and more populous than Broadway and vastly more important. When everything was running! “high, wide and handsome” there was tendency along Main Street to imi- tate Broadway. The glitter of the, nation’s most publicized thorough- fare was enticing and stimulated im-| itation. i But in these serious times Main| Street is taking the lead. Bread and| butter are important again. Both Main Street and Broadway profit by| the change and it is good for the na-! tion. Washington's Picture Prebably it is too bad that New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art had to cast aspersions on the famous! painting of George Washington cross-! ing the Delaware within a few weeks of the 200th anniversary of Wash- ington's birth. Granting that the picture was artistically defective, it} is probably one of the most widely known. paintings in North America;) and it will be, for years to come, whether art critics assail its merits} oz not. And that, by a somewhat round- about route, leads one to wish that! the camera, especially the movie camera, could have been invented a couple of centuries earlier than was} Teally the case. i This painting, like many others, owes its ekistence to our intense de- sire to have history illustrated. It isn't enough to read about things; we want to see, we want to know ex- actly how things looked at the mo- ment they were happening. To sead| about Washington's dramatic thrust! at Trenton is exciting. To see a pic- ture of it, even a poor picture, is bet- ter. \ So we get such paintings, and grow| fond of them, even though we know that they are bad paintings. But what wouldn't we give for a few photographs! Some photographs of Washington himself, for txample. We have plenty of paintings, but they don't quite make him clear to us. They contain too much of the painter; they look too noble; they don’t quite come alive. If only some newspaper pho- tographer could have caught him, say, when he was chatting with La- fayette, or when he was at ease in some inn, or when he was leading his troops into action! And the newsreels would be price- less. If we had just a few smudged feet of blurry film showing the rag- ged Continentals on the river bank sbove Trenton, this painting would never have had to come into exist- ence. Half a reel of Valley Forge would be worth all the Revolution paintings in the world.

Recent estimates show that 100,000 persons were killed in the United States by all accidents in 1931, of which approximately 35,000 were victims of the automobile. This new Legion activty has re- ceived the warm endorsement of all agencies devoted to accident preven- tion and safety education. Substun- tial evidence of this is supplied by the fact that the National Bureau of Casualty and Surety Underwriters in New York, in furtherance of its conservation campaign, has- fur- nished the Legion with a compre- hensive text book and guide. Under the title of “Community Safety Ac- tivities for American Legion Posts,” the bureau has not only outlined what the Legion might do in attack- ing the serious problem, but suggests how it may be done. Every phase of the subject is clear- ly and definitely covered in this at- tractive pamphlet of 38 pages, which is now going to every post in the United States. The situation in in- dustry, the home, the school and the street are all explained with sugges- tions for programs looking to tm- provement. Principal emphasis is laid on street and highway acci- dents. Legionnaires are advised to get back of constructive legislation of all kinds, to cooperate with the au- thorities and other civic associations in working out definite, scientific traffic enforcement, to back the schools in safety education and to labor for improved conditions in homes. The Legion has undertaken @ great work and its efforts will make life a little safer for us all. Hunting Ducks The huge size of the army of duck hunters that invades the marsh and lake regidns of the United States every year was never better revealed than by the recent discovery that: ducks on a certain Jake in Minnesota are actually dying of lead poisoning. Thousands of ducks on this lake died in a short space of time. When scientists made an investigation, they | found in the gizzard of each dead duck a quantity of lead shot. Charges fired at the ducks had lodged in the muddy bottom of the lake, and the ducks, digging into the ooze for food, had eaten the pellets. The investigators asserted that the lake's bottom contained many tons of lead. . Could there be more striking evi- dence of the vast numbers in which duck hunters sally forth each au- tumn?

Northwestern Milk and Money (New York Times) Eleven years ago Mr. Frederick E. Murphy, a successful farmer jusi be- come publisher of The Minneapolis Tribune, came to his office resolved to put into practice certain ideas from a three years’ vacation on a There was a severe ag- ricultural crisis in that year of sharp deflation. The farmer's friends in congress were busy making relief bills. “Let us help ourselves,” said Mr. Murphy, no believer in govern- The Northwest had stuck to single wheat-farming during and after the war. Yield as well as price was small. Mr. Murphy's remedy was “good farming with good live- stock.” The Agricultural Credit Cor- poration of Minneapolis was organ- ized to help the grain-grower not in good circumstances to buy dairy cat- tle and sheep. Under the new system agricultural income jumped enormously, almost $100,000.000 a year. But how ha things been in the last two years, when farm and commodity prices again slumped? Mr. Murphy says: Farmers of the United States as a whole in 1931 had an in- come of 1.03 per cent less than in 1911. ; The income of Minnesota farmers in 1931 exceeded their income for 1911 by 61 per cent. A great new buying “power has been created in the Northwest. Mr. Collisson tells us about it in a pam- phlet on “The Golden Land of Milk and Money.” He proves by charts that the prices of most dairy, live stock and diversified farm products a fore the war, and that “most of these prices have been far above the price level of general merchandise for years in exchange or trading value.” The one-crop farmer is in the dumps. The good farmer's buying power is still high. Minnesota’s annual out- ter crop yields $125,000,000 a year, a value more than that of all her small grain crops, a third more than that of her iron crop. In the four Northwestern states, Minnesota, the Dakotas, Montana, the dairy cow is “a $300,000,000 industry.” In Minne- sota the big feeding crops, corn, hay, oats, barley, bring in nearly $250,- 000,000 a year: How do we market these crops?

MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor, Journal of the American Although everyone realizes that the ‘émloye who becomes tired may be a menace to himself and to those around him because of the delayed reactions and subsequent accidents, the study of fatigue in industry con- tinues to be a most difficult and com- plicated problem. No _ scientific method exists for detecting the onset of a harmful amount of fatigue. A feeling of tiredness may gradually in- crease to the point of danger, but the difference between just being tired and being fatigued to the point of danger is a broad difference. If @ person is in fairly good health, he should not feel tired for more than one-fifth of his total waking hours. Perhaps one of the most important causes of fatigue in industry is the outside occupation and the using of time outside of the working place for work of a similar-or even a more dif- ficult character. A great many married women in industry are confronted with this sit- uation. They are concerned not only with the eight hours of working dur- ing the day, but with the preparation of breakfast for the family and the cleaning of the house before coming to work and with the preparation of dinner and numerous household du- selves by brutal force; their argu- ments are cannon and machine guns. The Bolsheviki preach beautifully, but New York, Jan. 25—What New York is talking about: Ll George Gershwin (born Brushkin inj Brooklyn) is back in the limelight as| he has not been since “Rhapsody in Blue” moved him from Tin Pan Al- ley to Carnegie Hall. And this thanks to the highly humorous and_ subtle music written for “Of Thee I Sing,” already the most discussed music show in town—and a sellout for months in advance! Gershwin is 33 and a bachelor. His name has yet to be involved in any of the gossipy scandals so common to Broadway. His pénthouse, looking over the Hudson at the Riverside Drive turn, is a model of tasteful mod- ernism. His phonograph record li- brary is filled with sets of the mod- erns, particularly Stravinsky, Ravel and Debussy . . . The more popular of his own records have sold as many as 2,500,000 . . . . “Rhapsody in Blue” is said to run second to “St. Louis Blues” in the number of orches- tral interpretations. Two rooms of his dwelling place have been rebuilt into a gymnasium, to which he devotes at least an hour a day.

Here was material for thought. She might have paused to doubt that Earl’s father had ever made such a silly will— fathers rarely do so. She might have been considering Earl's age in connection with the possibilit: at least, that he had been marriei and divorced and could not remarry before a year had elapsed. Or, granting her trustfulness, or cre dulity, or both, and without accus- ing her of cupidity, she might have been speculating as to the extent of the fortune to which Earl was so soon to fall heir. Her answer finally spoken, may or may not be indic- ative of the thought processes that contrived it. oo ew could be engaged,” she said, “And you could go on to Denver, and I could go to the girls’ camp, like I’d planned.

Such added fatigue but also interfere with the total amount of sleep which is equally important. Boredom and a feeling of tiredness may result from mental or emotion- al attitude toward work, but boredom is not the same as physical fatigue. Dr, V. M. Palmieri, a French physi- cian, found that a normal amount of activity on the part of women in in- dustry stimulated their metabolism and increased their bodily tone, but that overactivity brought about fa- tigue with disturbances of metabo- ism, anemia, irritability and diges- tive disturbances, and in the case of many women disturbances of their feminine functions. The only safe treatment for fatigue and exhaustion is rest. Chronic fa- tigue is shown by a diminished amount of red coloring matter in the blood, a diminished amount of red blood cells, and a lowered power of the blood to overcome infectious dis- eases. These are obviously serious ef- fects and must be guarded against in every industry.
