This done, the result in lowered fire losses will be of economic aiid s0- cial benefit to all. Another Step Forward Singleness of purpose and the elitn- ination of disputes and jealousies within groups of farm producers and { distributors, are essential to the suc- |cess of cooperative movernents. The New York Milk Shed furnishes ;@ good example of this. That is the territory served by one of the oldest and largest cooperative organizations jin its field. This organization has been pounding home to farmers, for many years, the need for concentrated effort, for unswerving and united sup- Port of an established cooperative. Recently one of the big dairy compa- nies in New York announced: “We | believe the plan of a single milk mar- ‘keting association is sound and will |be of mutual benefit to distributors and producers. As evidence of our | willingness to support a constructive movement for the betterment of the industry, we are hereby giving notice that on June 1 we will purchase milk from the Dairymen’s League Coopera- tive Association, Inc., believing that by so doing, we will be making a distinct contribution to the future stabiliza- tion of markets and better returns for :| producers and distributors.” This marks a distinct step forward for the New York dairymen. It illus- trates, better than argument, the fine fruit that grows from a strong and | aggressive farm cooperative. ‘Who remembers when the slang ex- | ——— ”" Pression “corn-fed” was used to indi- cate an individual with more than| average rotundity? The phrase has long since passed out of our current vocabulary, and rightly so, for the average American now eats less—much less—corn than his father did. No longer ago than 1899, when corn teal mush sitll was a major articlt of diet in many homes, the average American ate 100.3 pounds of corn a year. In 1929 the figure was 22.3 pounds per inhabitant. One of those bright lads who like to figure such things, has computed that if corn meal was as generally used today as in 1899 the increase in Population would mean the grinding of 310,000,000 bushels of corn annually for human food alone. Thal would make a lot of corn meal mush. The corn grower need not be dis- couraged, however, for as the use of corn as human food has declined, other uses have been found for it. The department of agriculture has a list of the products of corn, which contains over 150 different articles running all the way from acetic acid, alcohol, axle grease, buttons, car- springs, car wheels, cigarette-holders, face-powder, filling for. horse collars, incense, down to radio equipment, shaving soap, shoe horns, telephone receivers, varnish, vinegar, and wax. A writer many years ago said— “Thus the magic corn plant feeds us, sings t6 us, washes us clean, hands us a pipe of peace, gives us abundant energy, and at the close of day pro- vides us with a bed.” All of which is a source of satisfac- tion a$ we note the increasing acre- age of corn in North Dakota and the fact that the crop now is generally well above the ground and growing strongly. A Change for the Better The recent fracas at the Cleveland American League baseball park, in which @ group of Chicago White Sox players indulged in a fistic attack on Umpire George Moriarty, was news because it represented a very rare oc- currence; and for that reason it em- phasizés the way in which baseball has changed. Actual physical encounters are rari- ties in big league baseball these days. The players seldom come to blows with one another. The umpires sel- dom have to be protected after the game ends. Yet such things used to be com- monplace, A baseball player not only had to be a capable athlete; he had to be handy with his fists as well. The steady patton of a ball park usually could count on seeing at least one good fight a week, if not more. The game itself hasn’t changed. But the conditions under which it is played, and the character of the play- ers, has, Protecting Our Forests California officials have little ré- gard for anyone who endangerts the forests.

They are published without regard to whether they agree or disagree with The Tribune's policies. Do We Need a Dictator? (New York World-Telegram) That was a remarkable address Owen D. Young made at Notre Dame Sunday. Though delivered to the youth of a graduating class it could be studied with profit by the mature of the country, especially by our in- dustrial and political leaders. Whether or not you agree with the views he expressed, you will find them stimu- lating. We were particularly interested in his discussion of three popular atti- tudes, which in this depression are rapidly gaining sufficient currency to become dogmas. First, that labor's standard of liv- ing had become too high to be main- tained. Second, that over-specialization is another cause of our troubles, of crisis — though Mr. Young, of course, did not use the word “dicta- tor.” |standards, and in disagreement with much specialization and with his in- timation that our form of govern- ment with its system of checks and balances is inadequate in times of stress. On the first point, he gave this timely warning: “People will tell you now that our living standards were too high and that we could not hope to maintain them. ... I hope you will say that the living standards were not too high —indeed they were not high enough— and that you intend to see to it in your time that the masses of the peo- ple of this country not only reach, but maintain a higher standard of living for themselves than we had at the height of the last period of our pros- perity.... “The trouble was we could not stand Prosperity. Not satisfied with the daily earnings of our labor, we un- dertook to gain more by speculation. ...» We no longer sought high living standards from honest labor, but ex- travagance from dishonest gains.” He listed over-specialization as “an- other difficulty.” We fail to under- stand, however, in what way our in- creasingly complicated civilization can be organized and operated efficiently except by highly specialized techni- cians, industrial engineers, social planners, and experts in local and national government. On the third point, Mr. Young be- gan by expressing his historical un- derstanding and appreciation of our jgovernmental system of checks and balances to preserve democracy, but concluded: “It is quite explainable, therefore, that a government of powers widely distributed into carefully segregated and insulated compartments should function under normal conditions and should fail us altogether when the avalanche comes on. It may be that we shall have to consider some meth- od of putting extraordinary powers in the hands of the president in times like these.” Theoretically, doubtless all would agree that a dictatorship or a semi- dictatorship wotks more efficiently and certainly more quickly than any form of democracy, which is cumber- some to the very degree that it is rep- resentative. one.

Broadway, presumably ariaesthe- tized against shocks, allowed itself a slight quiver when word camé that the far-famed Cohan offices in the Knickerbocker building had been of- dered abandoned. Thus, far out in Hollywood, does the Yankee Doodle Boy give his regards to Broadway! ee Still, this was consistent with the events of a season. The chin has be- come a favorite target for the fates! Examine the records of almost any great producer of.a few years back and you'll find. a score that goes something like this: Al Woods, mo- mentarily out of the receiver's clutches, tried one come-back and failed; Winthrop Ames appeared to have retired; George C. Tyler wert unrepresented but flirted with “the road”; Charles Dillingham lay ill in a hospital when his theater went to the banks; Arthur Hammerstein’s playhouse passed through a couple of SUBSTITUTES FOR COD LIVER OIL It is now the general practice everywhere to give every baby a suit- able cod liver oil ration from the age of one month to the age of one year, (amateur mothers may learn about this and other wrinkles from the Brady Baby Book, copy of which will be mailed if you write in for it and enclose 10 cents in coin and a stamped envelope bearing your address). The chief purpose of this is to prevent rickets, but cod liver oil contains Vi- tamin A as well as Vitamin D, and we have some good evidence that Vi- tamin A helps the natural immunity respiratory infections. Drs. A. G. deSanctis and J. D. Craig have been studying the effects of cod liver oil ration and of other concen- trates or substitutes over a period of three years or more, and comparing them. doses of three teaspoonfuls a day, which they estimate would represent 170 Steenbock Vitamin D units. This prevented rickets in 97 out of 100 cases. Viosterol 100D, given in 10-drop daily doses (representing 300 Stcen- bock units) prevented rickets in only 77 out of 100 cases. Viosterol 250D, in 10-drop daily doses (representing 750 Steenbock Vi- tamin D units), prevented rickets in 81 out of 100 cases. Viosterol 500D, in 10-drop daily doses (representing 1,500 Steenbock Vitamin D units), prevented rickets in 90 cases out of 100. Cod Liver Oil in concentrate tab- let form given in doses of three tab- lets daily (representing 150 Steenbock Vitamin D units), prevented rickets in 92 cases out of 100. These investigators question wheth- er Vitamin D is the only factor nec- and possibly still other factors, have something to do with it, and hence the plain cod lover oil is more effec- tive than the more expensive substi- tutes. -Sounds like good medicine to me. Anyway, even if the baby gets the fancier substitute, when he gets along to the age of three to 12 years, if he seems to lack immunity to respira- tory infection, give him plain cod A.
