No Cause for Excitement ‘The report hasn’t spread out to North Dakota yet but in case it does it is only fair to state that there still is parking space for automobiles in Chicago. More specifically, the man- agement of the world’s fair expected some of their millions of customers to come by motor and made provision for them. Out here, it seems, there is little cause for excitement about it but down in Chicago it is a matter of im- portance for some dastard is being accused of spreading the report that Chicago is not permitting any park- ing this year despite the inconven- fence such action would cause its own residents, not to mention the vis- itors. Another rumor, and one out of the same factory, is that automobile tour- oo| its fair share of this 50) of the projects proposed, the manner 50 |1n which the public accepts them and which are good financial risks are go- ing to receive much consideration. A letter sent out by the state commit- tee makes this clear when it says: “There are three things that the government will take into con- sideration. They are: The neces- sity and value to the community of the project itself; the ability of the community to take care of its maintenance and the ability of the community to care for the amortization of and the interest on the loan.” There is the whole thing in a nut- shell. North Dakota undoubtedly will get Public work money. How much it will get de- pends, in the long run, on the value the ability of the local districts to hold up their end of the load. Right now it seems popular to “ask for plenty.” Before this thing really gets into action we shall either use common sense voluntarily or be forced to do so. A Million Dollar Rain If ever North Dakota had a million dollar rain it was that of Monday, It easily will add that much to the fi- nancial resources of this section be- cause it was the salvation of the grain crop and pastures in this district. A few more days of blistering sun and drying winds and all would have been brown and sere where only a Short time before everything was green. The new moisture will revive the crop, make the meadows lush again and, above all, restore confidence to our people, We can admit, now, that things looked pretty black after the failure of Sunday's clouds to produce anything but lightning and the hot- test winds on record, Watching those big raindrops come splashing down everyone breathed a Prayer of thanks and renewed in his heart the avowal that “God’s in his heaven and all's right with the world.” Se Work faithfully for eight hours a BUT, SIR ~ THE VANS SWERINGENS STARTED ON A SHOE STRING By William Brady, M. D. 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. Letters should be brief and written in ink. No reply can be made to queries not conforming to instructions. PERSONAL HEALTH SERVICE || ists are not wanted in Chicago. ‘The big city by the lake is excited about that, too. Loudly and vehe- mently it declares it does want them. It longs for them. It welcomes them with open arms. At the entrance to the exposition grounds, we are told, there is parking space for 7,000 cars. Within a mile of ‘the entrance there is room for 21,000 more in addition to those usually found there. ‘The funny thing about it all is that Chicagoans should have so discounted the native common sense of the American people. Everyone has a pretty good idea of what conditions are in the Windy City. Of hundreds of thousands of visitors, many come by motor. Some of them have encountered difficulty in finding parking space as close to the fair entrance as they do to their stores or homes in Keokuk or Ypsilanti, Fort Worth or Bismarck. Some of them, Perhaps, have “crabbed” about it a little. This is only natural. It is nat- ural, too, that it would be a little more difficult to find parking space near the fair grounds than in most other Places in view of the fact that the ex- Position is “playing” to approximate- Jy 150,000 persons daily. Most persons are sensible enough to understand that fact and not get excited about it. As for Chicago discouraging tourist traffic it couldn't do that if it wanted to, any more than it could make the sun stand still. Not a Gift Numerous inquiries have been re- ceived by The Tribune as to the method of financing improvement Projects under the new public works bill, the reason being the doubt in many minds that the government is going to strew money about to all and sundry without expectation of getting it back. In this they are quite correct, A substantial part of any money obtain- ed fom the government will have to be paid back, at a low rate of interest, exactly as though it were financed through private sources. Take the proposed high school building for Bismarck as an example, Not more than 30 per cent of the cost would be borne directly by the gov- ernment. The remaining 70 per cent would be borne by the school district and, in order to legalize the required financial arrangements, it will be necessary for the people of the dis. trict to vote a bond issue for that Portion of the expenditure. Details have not been announced, but the state committee in charge of the work estimates amortization at two and a half per cent and interest at three and one half per cent, mak- ing a total of six per cent. In the case of Bismarck, 70 per cent of a $350,000 building would be $245,000, Six per cent on that amount would be $14,700 | ® @ year for which provision must be made in the tax levy. In part, the school district would get something for nothing, but only in part. If the people want to bulld a new school they can get no better deal, but there is no point to the con- tention that it will cost them nothing. ‘Thus requests for tremendous sums, made by several North Dakota muni- Cipalities are silly. Jamestown, for example, has asked for $1,750,000. One wonders if any study was given to ca- pacity to pay before putting in that day, don’t worry and in time you may become the Boss. Then you can work twelve hours a day and have all the worry, —_—_— “Father, I cannot tell a lie!” said little George Washington, whereupon his father changed his mind about taking him on a fishing trip. a It ain't no. use putting up your um- brella till it rains.

It is hardly reasonabie to assume that the cause of this is orig- inal sin or that American bankers are Jess intelligent or less honest than the bankers of other countries. . On the contrary, there is every rea- son for believing that our dual bank- ing system itself is at fault, and that it would have produced the same kind of failures and chaos in any other country and operated by any other set of bankers, no matter how wise. The new law makes several vital re- forms in our system. It separates banks and security affiliates. It for- ces private banks to give up either the deposit business or the security busi- ness. It breaks up interlocking direc- torates between the large private banking house and commercial banks. It clothes the Federal Reserve with Power to restrict the speculative use of its funds, The deposit insurance provisions of the law were a necessary compromise, They are dangerous to the extent that they lull the public and officials into the belief that any absolute guarantee Of deposits is possible or that so-called insurance is a substitute for a sound banking system. Fortunately, however, the insurance provisions indirectly are expected to contribute to sounder banking. The public probably will support only banks which are strong enough to qualify for deposit insurance benefits. The new law is accurately described as the most important banking legis- lation since the original Federal Re- serve Act. Even so, it is only a half- ‘way measure. It still limits branch banking to a few States. It still leaves many loopholes for unscrupul- lous bankers—loopholes which will not be fully understood until the Senate has completed its Pecora investiga- tion. On the basis of the completed in- vestigation, Congress will be in a po- sition next winter to finish the bank reform legislation begun in the Glass- Steagall law. f Barbs | ——_— London Economic Conference is go- ing to have a bar 70 feet long, serv- ing drinks of 66 nations to thirty dele- gates.

I ex- plained that the itch, scabies, whether you call it Cuban, seven year or old fashioned itch or ascribe its manifes- tations to “uric acid” or “impure blood” or buckwheat pancakes, is con- veyed by clothing, towels, bedding, personal toilet articles and direct con- tact. One case is enough to keep any family busy. Prevention consists in baking or boiling every possible article which has been in contact with the affected individual. And of course avoiding actual bodily contact with the affected individual. Then, being in an expansive mood, I offered some practical advice on treatment of the itch. I said: “Plain sulphur ointment is one of the most effective remedies, provided it is thoroly rubbed into every bit of involved skin after a complete and vigorous hot soap and water scrubbing. The scrub- bing is essential to soften hard- ened cuticle over the burrows. The parasiticide should be rubbed in at night and the patient should re- tire well greased. Repeat the op- eration, bath and all, for three nights. Then a final bath, com- plete change of clothes and bed clothing, and a rest fora few days. If the treatment has been thoro the seven year itch ceases right there in three days time.” This was not half bad—for those days. But we live and learn, and I’ve just caught up with the advancing knowledge of the itch and how to treat it. The scientific treatment of itch makes me feel pretty cheap, I can tell you. I am indebted to “Practical Medicine Yearbook” edited by Dr. Bernard Fantus for this—and possibly some one will remember the vulgar pun I made on this good -teacher’s Address Dr. William Brady, in care of this newspaper. ment—it gets the parasites as well as sulphur ointment does, and is*rather less irritating to the skin, QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Do Have Something To Eat ‘When one’s heart is weak one must eat to keep it beating. When one gets enough to keep up one’s strength, ar- thritis is encouraged. Isn’t that a fine situation? (B. R.) Answer—No, it is just a silly notion. ‘Who says food has anything to do with arthritis? That is a quack’s game you are playing. Perhaps in some cases of arthritis the patient would suffer less if he took more varied vic- tuals and quit his fool avoiding of this and that at the behest of some char- jatan. Pure fresh raw milk or even. any old pasteurized milk, and plenty of cheese, are the best foods, or rath- er the foods the arthritis patient should consume most liberally. Chatter, Spatter, What's the Matter I wish some slogan might be given publicity regarding the results of pro- miscuous spray or droplet infection. Our whole family was disabled for a month, an expense we could not af- ford . . . (T. H,, Pastor). Answer—How about “Never mind wet feet, drafts or breezes. See that you cover your coughs and sneezes. If you have the cri you must also cover conversation, for the spray from that is mainly what peppers this na- tion.” The health authorities are willing to permit the education of the Public about cough and sneeze spray, but try to tell people about conversa- tion spray and see how lonely you will be. Probably the moisture spray giv- en off when one talks (which carries not more than five feet) is the main means of infection with eri, flu, grip or what have you, and cough and sneeze spray get in their deadly work. only among the very ignorant class. (Copyright 1933, John F. Dille Co. name when I challenged his teaching about skin absorption. Well, old timers, I’m glad that I can now assure you it is not necessary to scrub within an inch of your life in order to treat itch successfully, and it is't even necessary to use sulphur ointment if you dislike the color or odor of it. In fact any excessively vigorous or irritating treatment does harm. It seems that the acarus or mite is accessible only at night when it comes up to feed and breed on the surface. A thin film of a weak para- siticide (parasite-killing) ointment or oil applied to all parts except the head for three nights successively is sufficient. No scrubbing is necessary, because no such remedy penetrates the skin anyhow. No baths are neces- sary in the course of the three nights treatment. Each batch of parasites will hatch out in 48 hours. So it fol- lows that if all the adult mites on the surface are killed by the first applica- tion of medicine, only two generations remain unhatched in the borrows, and jthese will perish in the second and third anointings.

Lights glaring down, adding to the pitiless heat... Oddly mixed strata in that cascade of humanity from the high edges of the giant stadium; in the upper stands, youngsters and low-wage workers, stenographers and clerks, parties of giggling girls, and here and there a grumbling man of funds who couldn’t get a better seat... And so on down to the teeming lower level; here the out-of-towners and in the boxes elderly folk who wish to keep from underfoot of the throng. Farther out, close packed about the bright focal center—the spot-lighted ring—are the highest and the lowest; officials of state, and men and molls of the underworld; celebri- ties of stage and screen, and peo- ple of society; mighty governors, two mayors, senators, congressmen, a cab- inet member, two former heavyweight champions and the present one. . .

It seems Bartley used to be an amateur boxer, and one night got smacked right into the water bucket in his corner. Brooding about that, and being a mechanical engineer by Profession, he decided rings should be better constructed. First he made the water bucket and the stool which are clamped to the ring post and are quickly swung out of the way. Then he worked out @ steel framework for the ring itself. It was his idea to have the lower ropes set back a few inches from the upper ones so a fight- er forced to the ropes can put a foot farther back to brace himself. Bart- ley built the ring for the Dempsey- Carpenter fight, then went into the business on a factory scale. He died @ few years ago and his son now carries on the business. ‘You can now hire a first-class pro- fessor for what you once paid a truck driver—Dr. J. W.
