Better Buy Now While the nation was slipping down into the business doldrums, numerous “Buy Now” campaigns were inau- gurated in an effort to improve the situation, This was followed, later, by a “Buy American” effort which ‘was an expresison of economic na- tionalism. All of these efforts failed and for very obvious reasons. The purchaser with the dollar attempted to serve hig own best interests. He was not so much interested in the welfare of the man who wanted to sell as in his own welfare. He bought where, as, and when he pleased and was un- moved by propaganda. At present, however, the nation is experiencing the biggest “buy now” campaign it has known in many will be farm relief and bank re- Hef. In my judgment this amend- ment solves every problem we have so far as a money policy can solve them.” This statement is probably true enough—provided that its final words are always remembered. The new scheme will solve our problems “so far as a money policy can solve them”; but it must not be forgotten that some of them cannot be solved by @ money policy, and that the re- form and recovery program previously outlined by the administration still needs to be pushed ahead. The problem of direct relief for un- 00}employment is still with us, for ex- ample. The measures designed to rectify the glaring faults in our bank- ing system are just as much needed as ever. The federal Proposition is as vital as ever. A start has been made, and there is plenty of reason to believe that it is going to do us a lot of good. So long as we don't get so optimistic that we assume there is nothing more to be done we ought to make out splendidly. Wasted Education A delegation of college graduates in cap and gown recently visited ‘Washington to call attention to the Plight of the student who gets a diploma and then finds that there isn't the shadow of a job for him emphasizes one of the most tragic as- pects of the whole depression, All through these difficult years our colleges have been industriously train- ing young men and women for leader- ship; and whatever the colleges’ short- comings, they have in the main done @ good job and they have had fine material to work with, But these trained and ambitious youngsters have, for the most part, found no chance to exercise their talents. Equipped for leadership, they can't even be followers. Editorial Comment Editorials printed below show the trend of thought by other editors. They are published without regard to whether they agree or disagree years. And the reason is just as obvi- ous. The purchaser is seeking to pro- tect himself. He is conserving his own interests. On all markets prices are rising ‘and this fact soon will be reflected in the cost of finished goods. Despite low manufacturing costs no industry has built up its inventory during the depression. On the con- trary, everyone cut to rock bottom. Now, with business moving again, goods are becoming hard to get for immediate delivery, according to a leading Bismarck merchant. Sales- ten are refusing to accept re-orders Mt former prices, listing them instead at the current figure. ‘These are the influences which' make “buy now” campaigns success- ful. Beginning of a Trend Announcement by the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey that it is retiring all officers and employes over 0 years of age on pensions or “lay- off” allowances may mark the begin- ning of a new trend in American industry. The only exceptions are employes up to years of age en- gaged on special work which might be disturbed by their leaving. Under no circumstances will any employe be kept on the regular payroll after he reaches the age of 65. Among those slated to go under the new arrangement are two vice presidents, a secretary and a comp- troller, according to the New York World-Telegram. They, like the others retired, will receive a pension consist- ing of two per cent of their salaries for each year they have been em- ployed. ‘The reason given for the change is that the company finds itself “still over-staffed despite the adoption of the five-day week.” ‘What is a man’s condition for ac- tive service at 60 is a question open to debate but the general assumption ig that a man is at his mental peak t that period in life. Nevertheless, this great company will have its brain work as well as its physical labor done by younger employes. If other firms adopt the same rule it will mark a major social trend in connection with our industrial de- velopment. ‘We may yet see the day when no ‘one will work before he is 20 and after he is 60, persons in these classifica- tions being cared for by a working Population between these age limits. Inflation Isn’t A Cure-all ‘We Americans seem to be an in- curably hopeful people. And there ate times when our excessive op- timism is apt to flp around between our ankles and trip us up. For some reason the nation’s de- parture from the gold standard has raised @ new crop of hopes. To a certain extent these hopes are jus- tified. We are getting bold and de- ctsive action, at least; for better or for worse we are on the move, and there is every indication that the rise in price of commodities and basic securities will have a deeply benefi- “cial effect on the life of the country. But we shall simply nullify these gains if we take it for granted that the controlled inflation plan is going to solve all of our troubles. Senator Thomas, commenting on the proposed issuance of United Btates notes to retire government bonds, remarked: “If this amendment goes into the farm bill it becomes the chief element. The rest of the bill will with The Tribune's policies. Trade With Argentina (New York Times) Since Argentina is our leading cus- tomer in South America, interest has naturally been stirred by the new trade agreement between that country and Great Britain. On one side, it assures a market in England for goods of great importance to the Argentine export trade. On the other, it provides that whenever a system of exchange control is in Operation, the full amount of ster- ling exchange arising from the sale of Argentine products in the United Kingdom shall be used to meet cur- rent remittances due in that coun- try, after deducting a reasonable amount for payment on Argentina’s Public debts. In other words, Argen- tina agrees not to use balances ac- cruing to her account in England for the purpose of making purchases from other countries, and to this ex- tent gives British goods a distinct Preference in her home markets. Necessarily, such preference will be partly at our expense. But there is little point in accusing either Britain or Argentina of deliberately seeking to injure our trade. They are merely profiting from a situation which can be turned to their mutual advan- tage. It has been England's prac- tice to buy approximately three dol- lars’ worth of goods in Argentina for every dollar's worth she sold there. This has created the ample balances in London which are henceforth to be used to increase Argentina's pur- chases in the United Kingdom. If we wished to follow England’s exam- ple and to create large balances in this country by buying heavily in Argentina, we could doubtless per- suade that nation to make an agree- ment, similar to that with England, to use these balances for the pur- chase of American goods. Actually, we have followed a very. “blue sky” Go ” CONSTITUTIONAL GOVERNMENT 7 RULE OF THE PEOPLE: NICE Kitty, Dangerous ia] ° On Back Se ee | Fascist party in America.

Signed letters pertaining to personal health and hygiene, not to disease diagnosis, or treatment, will be answered by Dr. Brady if a stamped, self-addressed envelope is enclosed. SO CALCIUM IS GOOD FOR RHEUMATIZ? A great many persons suffering with recurring hives, hay fever, bron- chial asthma, or periodic sick head® aches (migraine) have obtained con- siderable benefit from taking calcium. I have recommended particularly to migraine victims the taking of, say, ten grains of calcium lactate three times a day for a period of ten weeks. Calcium lactate is best dissolved in a little hot water, and this mixed with nearly a glassful of cold water, the dose to be taken soon after the meal. It has a taste, not very bad, but the taste may be covered by putting a few drops of lemon juice in the water, or some syrup of orange, or one may take the nearly tasteless gluconate of cal- cium instead of the lactate, tho the gluconate is too expensive, I think. Occasionally calcium lactate irritates or upsets #, sensitive stomach. If that happens, it is too bad, but fortunately this is still a free country and you needn't take any more of the stuff, you know. In any case, please re- member I do not guarantee it to do anything; I merely assure you it is a harmless experiment to try. Every little while some reader writes in to tell me of the remarkable benefit he or she has experienced from this course of calcium lactate. Now in my playroom I have two por- traits—I’d have three if there were authentic pictures of Father Hippo- krates. The two likenesses I keep be- fore me are the beloved T. R. and the philosophical John J. Coincidence. I lock to T. R. for inspiration when I get an exceptionally hard jolt or kick in the pants; and to J. J. for forbear- ance when I get a testimonial. Al- ways until now old J. J. has helped different course. Our tariff laws have deliberately discouraged pur- chases from Argentina on the ground that he chief exports are competi- tive with our domestic products. Rates which already seemed exor- bitant to Argentina were boosted in 1930 by the Hawley-Smoot pact. It was predicted then that this would injure our trade, and subsequent events have fulfilled the prediction. Our exports to Argentina have shown @ larger proportionate decline than those of our chief competitors. Meas- ured in terms of dollars, we have lost since 1930 three-quarters of our sales in the best market in South America. As Argentina sees it, not only are our tariffs high, but we also use the administrative provisions of existing law, granting power to impose quar- antines, further to discourage her exports to this country. It is signi- ficant that this was the first ques- tion raised by the Argentine del- egates who have come to the United States as guests of the American government. They were discussing American quarantines in Washing- ton while London was merrily pub- lishing the new treaty. 1667-English make First American settlement lestows1. ‘ish try to make ican Settle ment at Washington, be forgotten. Inflation in itself me to laugh off the solemn assevera- tions of many of these readers that ‘a dose or two of coelum daciate gives immediate relief to headache. Now comes @ physician, Dr. God- frey Tavares, who reports in Mun- chener medizinische Wochenschrift that he has been given calcium lac- tate with uniform satisfaction for pre- cisely that purpose these many years —that is, he has found it serves well as an analgesic (painkiller) not only in neuralgia and headache but in neuritis, rheumatism or what have you, This physician says it has) brought about complete cures in not ‘a few cases of these afflictions when \the ordinary remedies have failed. He pelieves calcium lactate is most ef- fective when given as above directed and in doses of from ten to twenty grains. There it is. And that’s all there is, Don't ask me for any more. You take it or leave it. Sometimes you take it and leave it, too. I have but one last word to add. Just now as I looked up at old John J. I saw him wink slowly. That re- minds me—I quoted Dr. Tavares’s re- port from a German medical journal. The Germans are great ones for cracking new remedies or treatments to the skies when they first an- nounce them, and then after the long- suffering druggists everywhere are in ink. No reply can be made to queries not conforming to instructions. Address Dr. William Brady, Letters should be brief and written in care of this newspaper. derful new medicine, discarding it in favor of still a newer one. However, calcium lactate is an old, standard chemical and the market on it is not likely to be affected by the mere recognition of one of its toward effects. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Soda ‘What effect has soda on vegetables? I cook green beans with a teaspoon- ful of soda in the water three min- utes, then drain and cook 10 minutes and they are done. They retain their color and flavor, but I am told they lose their vitamins. Does soda form ball in the stomach? (Mrs. L. F.) Answer—That is the only objection I know. The soda destroys Vitamin C. If the daily diet or ration includes some raw vegetables, relishes or fruits, no cause to worry about Vitamin C. Soda does not form “ball in the stomach.” Scarlet Fever You classify scarlet fever as a res- piratory infection and imply the in- fection occurs thru conversational spray. If that is so, why does the health board quarantine all cases for 30 days or more? Is there scientific proof that peeled skin can cause scar- let fever if carried by a parent, nurse or doctor? (H, Y.) Answer—It is just an old maritime custom. There is no good evidence that scarlet fever is spread thru the desquamation or pealing of skin. (Copyright, John F.

SS LON BN SE‘ PNET I By PAUL HARRISON New York, May 13—It's a sad soiree. @ dull dansant, or even an unusual evening at a fashionable night club that doesn’t turn out enough titled Personages to stock a medium-sized royal court. Counts and countesses, marquises and marchionesses, princes and princessses are all over the place. Their names are on the very choicest invitation lists, and are set off impressively in the society col- umns. Some, of course, are in the so- cial register by native right. The Princess Miguel de Braganza, for in- stance, was Anita Stewart in 1909, and related to the Rhinelanders and Witherbees and other blue-blooded American families. She married the late Prince Miguel, who renounced his claim to the now non-existent throne of Portugal. Russian titles predoininate, partly because they are handed down gener- ously to all the children of a noble Russian line. Thus, Arthur and Ni- kolai von Keller are both counts be- cause their father was one. Any night at the Central’ Park Casino, or at the Waldorf, are likely to be seen such titled folk as the Grand Duchess Marie, Prince George Matchabelli, Prince Serge Obolensky, Prince Paul Chavchavdze and Prin- cess Nina, Count Mario di Zoppola, Prince George of Russia, the Countess Martini-Crotti and her hostess in New York, the Princess Henry XXXIII of Reuss, Thuringia.
