(Official City, State and County , Newspaper) Foreign Representatives SMALL, SPENCER, BREWER incorporated) CHICAGO NEW YORK BOSTON Persistence Will Win Anyone rieeding modern illustration of the old adage, “If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again,” might do well to watch the progress of Eur- ope’s effort to scale down the war debts. Constant hammering and continual assertion that revision of the debts is necessary if the world is to go ahead once more are reminiscent of the dripping of water upon a stone. Without cessation and from many angles, the people are being told that such generosity on our part is a vital necessity, that we will be shamefully lax if we do not respond to Europe's plea. Alleged self-interest is stressed in one barrage and the American sense of idealism is appealed to in another. Eventually, under the stress of some! sort of government leadership, a crisis will be declared, the thumbscrews/ will be turned down and the war debt question will become a matter of his- | tory before the people wake up to what has happened. It then will be too late to make effective protest. Occasionally there appears some- thing which runs counter to the debt- cancellation propaganda. Such an article was printed by the Washington Star, sent from Geneva by Albin E. Johnson. It shows that France lists her military expenses at 13,000,000} francs annually but that her expendi- tures actually are 20,000,000 francs for this purpose. In our money it is some- thing like $810,215,946. This is some $20,000,000 more than} the United States spends for war | Preparations annually and this coun-/| try has more than three times the| * population of France. ! Johnson explains that many items which are spent for the army and| navy are hidden in the French civil budget. For instance, a finance law Provides 170,000,000 francs for air corps reserve materials. The public health department provides 57,731,250 francs for needy families whose wage earners are in the army; the agricul- ture department budget provides 13,- 747,050 francs for the purchase of army remounts, and so on through a Jong list. Meanwhile, the United States fol- lows an opposite policy. It includes in its army and navy budgets many things which are civil in character, such as $30,000,000 for the Panama canal management, $50,000,000 for in- Jand waterways and similar items. In view of these facts, if they are well enough known, the American people are not going to forget that France is the ringleader in the at- tempt to coerce the United States government to scale down the debts. She cries loudest about her inabiltiy to pay. As a matter of common sense, the people should make sure that their representatives in congress and in the senate do not overlook these facts. The Pro and Con on Inventions Philadelphia has a custom of mak- ing annual awards to those inventors whose inventions “may add to the comfort, welfare and happiness of mankind”; and news that the 1932 awards were made the other day sets one wondering just how these verdicts are reached. For an invention is usually a two- It cuts both ways; and 00; it can have consequences extending and cons fairly, for the revolution in human life which it caused is not nearly finished yet, and will not be for a long time. It is much the same with the gaso- line engine. The automobile and the airplane are extremely useful contriv- ances; yet if you sat down to list the iP in which they have disrupted People’s lives, the ways in which they have and will spread death and de- struction, it would take you a very long time, and your list would make unpleasant reading. An invention, in fact, is an incal- culable thing. It can do things which {its inventor never dreamed of, and infinitely beyond the Biblical third and fourth generations. Carlyle once remarked that a book can do more things to human society than its author ever plans. Much the same is true of an invention. Figure out some cunning little device and put it to work; in a century or two it may have changed the face of the world, and the job of balancing the credits and debts will be too great for any human jurist. Robert Driscoll’s Night in the Woods When a boy gets to be eight years old, he usually feels that the tales which delight younger children are pretty empty and foolish. And if he has to listen to too many of them he's apt to bust loose and do something about it. Recent New York papers had a de- lightfully appealing little “human in- terest” story about what one eight- year-old did in such circumstances. He was Robert Driscoll, an Ohio lad who was staying with his mother at a summer cottage near Madison, Conn. Near the cottage was an ex- tensive forest, and Robert had put THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, SATURDAY, AUGUST 6, 1932 re : Two Minds With But a Single Thought! roy” It’s eating and drinking and sitting around that makes women fat.—Mary Garden, grand opera star. * * * For multitudes of people religion has ceased being a source of confi- dent and joyful life and has become @ matter of debate—Dr. Harry Em- erson Fosdick, pastor, Riverside Bap- tist Church, New York. * * 8 Adult life in the United States has measured almost everything in terms of the dollar.

PERSONAL, HEALTH SERVICE in several days listening to the younger children tell about the bears, wolves, kidnapers, witches and hob- goblins that infested that stretch of woodland. At last Robert couldn’t stand it any longer. So, without saying anything to anyone, he wandered off into the woods to see for himself if all of these marvels really existed. Night came and Robert didn’t come home. So, pretty soon, the state po- lice went out to look for him. A vol- unteer posse of summer residents joined them. Bloodhounds were put on the trail. Boy Scouts were called out to help. All night the search went on without result. Shortly after dawn, however, the state police found Robert. He was sitting peacefully on a bed of moss by the riverside. He had slept there all night, he was not in the least worried or uncomfortable, and he couldnt’ understand what the fuss was all about. “Camping out,” he said, “is fun, and all that stuff about witches and wolves is bunk. There's nothing to be afraid of.” There could hardly be a better il- lustration of the adventurous spirit of young boyhood. A child of eight or thereabouts is in a very strange world which is full of mysteries, and the only way he can be sure about things is to look into them for him- self. Sometimes this leads him deep into the woods, and sometimes it leads him to take the living room clock to Pieces; sometimes it results in serious trouble and sometimes it all ends hap- Pily, as it did in this case. And who can read this little story without feel- ing an honest surge of comradeship for eight-year-old Robert Driscoll? Editorial Comment Editorials printed below s! trend of thought by tien ealtane They are published without regard to whether they agree or disagre: with The Tribune's policies, Those That Take Up the Sword (Duluth Herald) Mussolini, tyrant of Italy, glorifies war in an exposition of Fascism which he contributes to the Encyclopedia Italiana. He condemns democracy as & failure, which is a little premature because democracy, like Christianity, hasn't yet been applied seriously enough so anybody can know whether it is a failure or not. But a tyrant, to justify his own job, must condemn democracy, for of course a despot is the very antithesis and negation of democracy. Stalin condemns democracy, too. But here is what Mussolini says about war: “Only war carries all hu- man energies to the height of tension and gives the seal of nobility to peo- ples that have the courage to con- front it.” Well, that is a viewpoint, and much could be said—and, indeed, has been said—in favor of it. It is true that the psychology of war does rush the spirit of a people to a high pitch. They go out to die and send their sons out to die.

THIRD AND LAST LESSON IN COLONS PHYSIOLOGY In actual practice the so-called nu- trient enema is a gesture of the past. We regular doctors are beginning to] learn physiology. Nowadays we en- tertain and foster no delusions that it is possible to feed a patient in this way when the natural ingestion of food is interrupted. j To be sure, it is still a common practice to administer saline solution (salt dissolved in water) by this method. We know that water is freely absorbed from the colon or large in- testine. Possibly some salt dissolved in water is absorbed. Among sur-! geons—who, as a class, are generally pretty dumb and unskilled in the science and art of therapeutics or treatment other than operative, it is customary to add some dextrose or glucose to the water administered by} enema. This is done on the theory} that some glucose or dextrose is ab- | sorbed from the large bowel into the blood. Recent investigation of the ques-} tion has failed to furnish satisfactory } proof that giucose or dextrose so ad- ministered is absorbed. Accurate sci- entific tests show no appreciable in-; crease in the amount of dextrose in the blood after the careful adminis- tration of enemas containing various amounts of dextrose in solution. Most of the sugar so administered was re- covered from the dejecta after the lapse of 212 hours. But not all of it.| The investigators concluded that a} small quantity of the dextrose in the/ enema may be carried to the upper part of the large bowel by reverse peristalsis, and remain there to un- dergo slow fermentation or later re- turn to the lower part of the colon. The practical conclusion we must draw from these precise studies is that the practice of administering glucose or dextrose in enemas is of questionable value so far as the nour- ishment of the patient is concerned, though it may be as useful as are enemas of salt solution for providing needed water to the body. For our particular purpose the les- son to be drawn from these physio- logical facts is a simple one and aj sound one: We need never worry about the absorption of any harmful waste products, alleged poisons or reai} poisons of any kind from the large’ intestine. Such a thing can happen in the presence of grave pathological lesions or injuries, of course, but not in the circumstances of everyday life. Don't let the charlatans, the hum- bug diet experts and the fancy nos- trum exploiters get your goat. When they get onto the line about the “toxins” or “products of putrefaction” which they would have you think re- sponsible for imaginary “autointoxi- cation,” give ’em a big horse laugh and ask them to cite the scientific authority for their vicious teaching. They'll be stumped there, though of course they can rattle off all kinds of names if you let ‘em give you mere opinions or arbitrary assertions in lieu of scientific facts. ‘This is my last word on the subject for the present. I hope these little lessons in physiology will help some of you glum birds who have taken the old quack line too seriously. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS The Dentist Who Couldn't Eat Eggs T failed to see the logic in your ar- ticle about the Dentist Who Couldn't Eat Eggs.

On his mentioning this it developed that most of the members of the class have @ similar experience. Has it any sig- nificance?—(M. W.) Answer—The pulse rate of a normal person is 20 beats in the minute greater in the erect posture than when he lies down. The blood pressure, too, is increased. If the heart and circulation is inefficient, the sudden standing from the horizontal posture is more likely to distress one. Per- the slight dizziness should devote more attention to getting physical training. However, normal adults may feel momentarily dizzy on such sud- den rising. Sit on edge of bed and ment first.

BRIEF EPITAPH New York, Aug. 6.—Notes on noth- ing in particular and everything in general: Eddie Cantor, called upon recently to indite a future epitaph, turned out this one: “Here in nature's arm I nestle, Safe at last from Georgie Jessel.” ee * Alexander Woollcott still holds the world’s record for becoming an ac- tor on short notice. He took a fea- tured role in “Brief Moment” with- out previous stage experience. SLIMMER CHANCES But this shouldn't be used as am- munition for optimists. The chances of crashing into Broadway, always slim, are now about a thousand to one, what with a minimum of shows running and hundreds of well known performers playing the automat cir- cuits, Casting directors, even in better times, insisted on previous stage ex- perience before giving a newcomer a break. Most of them would not con- sider an actor whose performance they had not previously witnessed. The story of the understudy who made good seems to have no finis, however. The most quoted concerns Margaret Perry, who might have gone ‘on for many months without mention in a program had it not been for an illness which gave her a chance in “Strictly Dishonorable.” * * * COME-BACK A new generation views trick bi-' cycle riding as a gay novelty and an amusing addition to Americana, Joe Jackson, for instance, is staging @ come-back. Joe, if you happen to be of my particular vintage, is one of the oldest and best of them all. I came upon him the other night at George Olsen’s Hollywood Cafe. He had but recently finished a national tour with the Fanchon and Marco of- tices.

AMERICANS ADVANCE On Aug. 6, 1918, the fierce battle over possession of the valley of the Vesle river continued between the American and German troops. After beating off several strong counter-at- tacks, the American forces pushed forward at nightfall and made sev- eral important advances. French units near Montdidier sur- prised the opposing German forces and seized a strong section of the German defenses. Two counter-at- tacks failed to dislodge them after a day of intense fighting. Japan announced that troops had been dispatched to the Russian port of Vladivostok to “protect the lives and property of Japanese citizens.” The port was in the hands of the So- viet government, Only about one American male out of. every 200 attains a height of six feet.
