The Shoeless South ‘Tremendous hullabaloo has been taised below the Mason-Dixon line by Secretary Perkins’ recent refer- enoe to the shoeless south, The dec- leration was made by the lady labor chief during a discussion of oppor- tunities for the expansion of mar- kets and the phrase was ‘coined merely to indicate that a tremendous opportunity for expansion of the shoe industry exists in that section. Despite the bitter denunciation which came from southern news- papers, it is only fair to say that Miss Perkins was quite correct. The sale of shoes as well as of most other commodities is smaller per capita in the south than in most other sec- tions because the purchasing power there is less. A large Negro popula- tion with a certain proportion of “po’ white trash” has held back both industrial and commercial develop- ment. It is equally true that the same thing might easily be said of many other sections of the country. Any area where the purchasing power is, abnormally low may easily be shoe- Jess, or badly in need of shoes. Thus the, term “shoeless west” might arouse resentment but it would, in a sense, be true. There are not enough shoes in this or any other state unless every in- habitant has all the comfortable shoes he can reasonably need. Right now, children are going barefoot in North Dakota so they may have shoes for winter wear. If purchasing power of the farmer is restored, there will be a tremendous market here for shoes as well as clothing and other: necessities. The situation is well illustrated by the story of a local physician. He was talking with a farmer friend and the conversation turned to “conditions.” It was agreed that things could be much better and the question of health and physical condition came up. The doctor asked if the people in his friend’s district were suffering from malnutrition and the answer was illuminating. “Oh, no. We farmers will have Plenty to eat even if you city folks starve. The only trouble is that we must get some money soon or we'll have a lot of fat farmers running ground naked.” ‘The remark puts a humorous touch to the thing which has been said in @ thousand different ways in recent years. Under our modern organiza- tion people must have purchasing power else they soon will become shoeless, hatless and even pantsless, The south need not feel resentful. Here in the west we have admitted for some time that things could be much better than they are. And we are thankful now that they ere improving. Reorganization Needed An argument which may rage in congress next year as the result of the Akron tragedy is whether the navy should continue its present pol- icy of sending its officers to sea every three years, no matter what their training or special skill in other lines. Officers on naval airships, for ex- This idea is supported, so the pub- licity men say, by a test on 10 girls from the Radio City chorus in New York city, who were given three bot- tles of beer daily as a part of their regular diet, for a period of 18 days. One of the 10 girls gained a quar- ter pound in weight but this girl, so the physician employed for the test asserted, was underweight at the be- ginning of the test and was still un- derweight at its close, Another girl, overweight at the be- ginning, lost eight and a half pounds, having discontinued a habit of lunch- ing between meals during the course of the experiment. Seven girls lost slightly in weight and one remained unchanged. ‘Thus we have an old theory ex- ploded, at least by allegation, in an effort to induce the ladies to have no fear of getting “plump” from drinking the new brew. If, as the statement of this alleged test contends, beer proves to have a reducing effect, there never again will be any kind of law barring it from the market. “Drink beer and grow thin” would be too popular a slogan among the female element. Editorial Comment Editorials printed below show the trend of thought by other editors. ‘They are published without regard to whether they agree or disagree with The Tribune's policies, Uniting Against Rackets (Minneapolis Tribune) If it were not a typical American expedient to rush into the formation of another organization, once we, as @ people, become aroused about some- thing, the recently formed group that is to conduct a nation-wide drive against rackets might be a little more impressive. In so far as it centers our attention, however, on an evil that has too long been permitted to go unchallenged, this drive may be made to contribute something toward stamping out.a form of crime that is said to have had its greatest growth under prohibition. This organization has set as its first purpose that of cleaning up “the aftermath of pro- hibition” in the form of liquor racke- teers, gangsters and corruption in public office. Whatever its origin there can be no denying that dealing squarely with criminal racketeering is by no means one of the least of the problems which organized government is fac- ing. It is a problem that has not been solved by the legalization of beer, and, unless some greater atten- tion is paid to it, the growth of the repeal movement will not automatic- ally write an end to it. Just how the problem can best be dealt with is made no simpler through the mul- tiple ramifications of this type of crime. Rackets are declared to have gained such a foothold that some 5,000,000 persons are involved in sev- eral hundred branches of this flour- ishing illegal business. While. sta- tistics of this kind are of doubtful value, they probably do not exagger- ate the business that is being done in kidnaping, throwing of smoke bombs, smashing windows, beating up drivers and small merchants, acid throwing, poisoning and levying “pro- tection” taxes through an organized gangdom. Choosing the most vulnerable spot, in the anatomy of this modern dragon has furnished the new or- ganization known as the Crusaders with something to think about. In order to be able to concentrate their fire, the Crusaders have come to the conclusion that they had best strike &t the political racketeers, to whose doorstep they believe they are able to trace “95 per cent” of the trouble.

But it is very likely that they will be reorganized, with new talent, to carry on next fall and winter. Also there is a chance that Mr. Blumenthal’s or- ganization will move into the enor- mous Music Hall at Rockefeller Cen- ter. Such a possibility recalls the fact that the entire $250,000,000 Rocke- feller Center development was begun on the strength of the Met's promise subsequently broken, to move into a new home there. And it recalls the grim threat attributed to one of the Rockefeller associates: “If the Met- ropolitan won't move in here with us, we'll find or organize an opera com- Pany that will.” ‘The current successes at the Hippo- employers or employes of neurotics, nervous wrecks, individuals with “nerv- ous disposition” or “nervous tempera- ment,” “exhausted” nerves, or nerv- ous system “run down from . over- work,” business strains, domestic cares, and all that familiar old ho- kum, let us epitomize the essential facts: 1. Phystology, science, recognizes no such force as nerve energy, apart from muscular, organic, physical en- ergy. 2. Therefore there can be no “nerv- ous exhaustion” apart from ordinary physical exhaustion. 3. Some persons who purport to have “weak nerves” are themselves deceived—a proper medical examina- tion or study would probably reveal what really is wrong. These are Class A neurotics. 4. Others merely use “nervous weakness” or “nervous breakdown” as an alibi which enables them to im- pose on the sympathy, kindness and forbearance of the rest of the world.
