The last of them limped from the national scene with the adjournment of congress at noon Saturday. The entire session passed from the scene without much public re- @ret. Conditions over whith they had no control may have made it impossible for the nation’s lawmak- ers to do much, but that excuse will bring no joy to the hard-pressed citizen, Not all of us agree on what con- Gress might have done, to be sure, but everyone will join in attacking it for ® relatively small record of accom- plishment. Senator Frazier, speaking in the senate Friday, made vigorous protest against adjournment without taking steps to straighten out the agricul- tural situation, but the protest fell on deaf ears. The same forces which blocked action early in the session were in control at the close. Lame ducks, expressing the will of the People by whom they had been re- Pudiated, could not well be expected to carry out the dictates of the elec- torate. But it will be different in the fu- ture. Congress, as a result of the Norris amendment to the constitu- tion, probably will be more respon- sive to the will of the people. The task and duty of the people will be to make that will clear and unmis- takable. Scrip vs. Sales Tax Indications are that the governor will be called upon to consider both a scrip and a sales tax bill as the result of actions by the legislature. One provides for a straight-out tax on nearly every commercial trans- action or piece of business involving the transfer of money. The other provides for an indirect tax by re- quiring the purchase of stamps to validate the peculiar form of money to be used. Both measures have gone to the governor but only one of them is necessary to meet the situation which the state is facing. They are not identical in their effects, of course, but nearly enough so that one off- sets the other. In effect, each meas- ure is a sales tax and should be re- cognized as such. One or the other should be vetoed. Of the two, the sales tax seems to be the most workable and the most desirable. With scrip there always will remain the question of popular acceptance. And if the public turns its thumbs down on a scrip proposi- tion the efforts of the legislature to solve @ bad situation by this method will have gone for nothing.

No reply can be made to tions, Address Dr. William REFORM IN AMERICAN SURGERY In this column Aug. 3, 1926, I said: Readers frequently inauire about “electric” treatment in leu of surgical removal of diseased ton- sils. All I can say about that is that if my tonsils were concerned there should be no “electric” treatment. On May 16, 1929, I said: Even if it (diathermy) were of no other service than the desicca- tion or coagulation treatment of diseased and enlarged tonsils, I should still classify it among the isa advances of modern medi- cine, Obviously my opinion six years ago was based on ignorance. No doubt the inquires about “electric” treat- ment referred to diathermy, but as I then knew nothing about diathermy I assumed that the inquiries referred to an old discarded practice of des- troying tonsil issue with the electro- cautery, which was equivalent to burning with a red hot iron, The modern method of extirpating tonsils with diathermy is not cau iwation. The instrument, the applica- tor used by the physician never be- comes hot at all. This simple fact distinguishes the diathermy method from the electro-cautery. I mention it now because there are still too many physicians who, like myself four or five years ago, are ignorant of the character of the diathermy method and condemn it under the misappre- hension that it is a revival of the crude electro-cautery which achieved oblivion after a brief vogue thirty or forty years ago. Altho the instrument, applicator or electrode used in diathermy treat- ment of the tonsils does not become hot it is true that heat is produced in the tissue thru which the high fre- quency or Oudin type of current besses. This heat, however, is due to the resistance of the tissues to the Passage of the current. The current being ‘absolutely under the control of the operator, if the physician has the necessary technical knowledge and training for this work he can pro- duce precisely the degree of heat he Gesires and moreover he can confine its influence precisely within the lim- itations he wishes to treat. The tis- ‘@: may be heated only a few de- srees above normal; it may be prace tically’ pasteurized; it may be desic- cated; or finally it may be coagu- lated. But NEVER charred or burned. The chief objection that has de- terred physicians from the diathermy method as the method of choice for removal of tonsils has been the fear that it would leave too much scar tissue, which is commonly called “adhesions,” But this fear, as I have explained, was on misappre- hension. Burning would cause con- siderable scar. Diathermy causes ac- tually less scar than does the stand- As New York state industrial com- ard surgical tonsillectomy. missioner and in the fourteen years | dispelled she has held similar offices under dif- ferent titles Miss Perkins’ record in behalf of workers has been s dis- tinguished one.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Peanuts Are Real Food T am very fond of peanuts and eat a nickel or a dime’s worth two or three times a week. Mother objects, as I have been sick from them once cr twice, Please tell me what is the food value of peanuts, and whether they are good for a person. (J. A. K.) Answer—Yes, peanuts are good for anybody. A pound of the edible por- tion yields over 2,500 calories, or about three times the nutritive or energy value of beef steak. People should use peanuts more freely in the fam- ily dietary, as an economical food, which enters into many appetizing dishes.
