Beer and Motor Accidents A clinical experiment is in order to determine the effect of the cur- rent 3.2 per cent beer upon the con- sciousness of automobile drivers. Persons opposed to the legal sale of beer, apparently taking note of the fact that it is available in every city, village and hamlet now, con- tend that use of this beverage is largely responsible for the rising toll of automobile accidents in this state. If their statement is true it is am- ple cause for making a definite ef- fort to outlaw traffic in any liquid containing more than the Volstead- jan quantity of alcohol. Certainly no satisfaction of the appetite is worth the life of any man. ‘The very seriousness of the charge makes it worthy of careful investiga- tion, for upon the result of honest research will depend the attitude of many persons toward legal sale of alcoholic beverages. It is an obvious fact that alcohol may easily have different effects up- en different individuals. Some per- sons are so constituted that they can carry a heavy load. Others, more delicately balanced, are thrown off their normal course by comparatively little. ‘When the beer bill was before con- gress evidence was adduced as to whether 3.2 per cent beverages really are intoxicating. The consensus of expert opinion was that they are not, so far as the normal person is con- cerned. Tests subject to laboratory analysis showed that the normal man cannot get drunk on this drink. This is particularly true if he imbibes it along with a little food, such as pret- zels or a sandwich. On that score, even for those more susceptible, it would appear that the lowly pretzel constitutes an important item in the fight for national sobriety. In considering the death toll from automobiles, the men who make, sell and repair them should be a better authority than opinions formulated to meet a condition. These men, who may have varying views on the subject of alcoholic drinks, are al- most a unit in asserting that a large percentage of accidents is due to the Poor condition of automobiles in- volved. The average motor car now in use is something like five years old. Most of these vehicles have traveled thou- sands of miles in all sorts of weather. ‘Their brakes are not as good as they once were. Other defects have de- veloped and the stress of the times hhas handicapped adequate repair. ‘The result is a traffic hazard of real importance which would exist if alcohol never had existed. In judging between the opinions of those interested in perpetuating the legal restrictions against beer and the judgment of men in position to know the facts, it would seem that the garagemen are entitled to prefer- ence. Driving Customers Away Anyone interested in prices for farm products, and particularly in Proposals to establish minimum Prices by government fiat, will find the recent complaint of millers to the agricultural department a source of fruitful study. The claim is made by wheat pro- essors that increased prices of flour, due partly to the processing tax, are forcing a change in the buying habits ‘of the public; that consumers are buying corn flour and other items immune from tax, instead of wheat. Their answer, which is-to place a “compensating” tax on corn products for human consumption, may be the correct one. Certainly there is no Justification for permitting bread- stuffs to be penalized for the benefit of corn. This is all the more true because of the government's current ‘effort to improve the situation of the @orn-hog raiser by taking a tremen- ous amount of pork off the market et high prices. ‘The present situation has devel- ped under existing conditions and (prices. There is no question that it would be greatly aggravated by arbi- fWarily ifting the price of bread- stuffs. still further and compelling a further reduction in the demand. Prosperity “in this northwest coun- ‘try depends upon adequate prices for the producer, Everyone recognizes that fact. But the really important individual in any business transac- tion is the consumer, unless he hap- pens to be dealing with a monopol Thus it is that our grain farmers lwill find it good business to keep ‘their customers satisfied. Raising the price of our product too far above that of competing foodstuffs is merely to apply an embargo to our- selves. The result of this condition is rather obvious. We who think of bread as the staff of life cannot permit ourselves to | forget, that a good cook can do a lot of things with corn meal, corn flour, potato flour and other substitutes for wheat. If the economic pinch is strong enough many of them will. 99 | Therein lies a condition which should not be overlooked in any discussion of price-lifting. Our Merchant Marine A spokesman for American mer- 50|chant ship owners suggests that this country, spending vast sums to build up its navy, might profitably consider |putting some more money into its jmerchant marine—pointing out that naval men the world over look on their merchant ships as the second line of defense. “American patronage,” he remarks, “is today supporting the auxiliary navies of France, Germany, Italy and England. We pay 85 per cent of the passage money spent on the north |Atlantic. We constitute 70 per cent of the travelers and we take 95 per cent of all first-class cabin accom- modations. Meanwhile every one of these great foreign liners which we support was built with an eye to quick conversion into a ship of war. . «. Most of them could sail as fully equipped armed cruisers within five or six days of the outbreak of hos- tilities.” One hardly needs to be a jingo to admit that this situation does pro- vide a little food for thought. Editorial Comment Editorials printed below show the trend of thought by other editors, They are published without regard to whether they agree or disagree ‘Go Into That Barn’ And Get Harnessed’ with The Tribune's policies. Stern Realities (New York Times) ‘Thus far the National Recovery Act has been borne along on a sort of wave of popular enthusiasm. Emo- tional appeals to the patriotic spirit of America have been multiplied in a thousand ways, and have met with a response reaching Washington like the sound of many waters. Acceptance of the plan and a determination to make it work have been almost uni- versal. But now the time has come to translate impulsive and high-key- ed conviction into resolute and patient action. We have been summoned as for war. But it is now evident that the issue of the battle will not be de- cided by the first shock of attack. A long period of what may be called trench warfare against depression is before the country. This is plainly felt at Washington to be the case. The authorities there perceive that the first flush of national excitement is fading out. Fears are even expressed that NRA is not moving forward as well or as fast as was hoped and ex- pected. All the more reason, then, for preparing the public for a prolonged campaign. For the steady and dogged work that remains to be done several things are essential. One of them is a full and honest report of the facts. Ex- aggerated claims and buoyant pro- phecies are now wholly out of order. Happily, the government itself seems fully aware of this, and is taking pains to keep the people informed about the actual state of things. The de- partment of labor has given out the findings concerning the actual amount of new employment, as ascertained by its expert investigators. These are highly encouraging, so far as they go, though Secretary Perkins, with her customary restraint and love of the precise, does not undertake to mag- nify the significance of the figures. Along with this inquiry has gone one into the effect of higher prices upon the cost of living. There is no reason why this should be concealed. It was bound to come, and the public is en- titled to know that there is official confirmation of the truth which house- wives and family providers have al- ready come to know in their private experience. All this lends new point to the demands which Professor Og- burn has made for fuller analyzing and reporting of the effects of the Recovery Act upon the great mass of consumers. ‘ It is with these realities, as they de- velop and present themselves in mani- fold form, that the country must grapple in the weeks that lie ahead. There will be ups and downs of senti- ment. Many will be discouraged by absence of the immediate and sweep- ing success which they look for. But we are convinced that the great ma- jority of the people will press firmly head, meeting obstacles as they arise with an undaunted spirit, and constantly devising new methods to overcome unexpected troubles. It is as true of a nation as Matthew Arnold said that it might be of an individual, that “Tasks in hours of insight will- ed, may be in hours of gloom fulfill- ed” For this second stage of the recovery plans, upon which we are now enter- ing, the right kind of leadership is as necessary as it was for the original conception and for its first impact upon the hearts and consciences of the American people. President Roose- velt has never put forth extravagant assertions or predictions about NRA. He has cautiously spoken of it only as @ great and promising experiment. If it partially fails, something else will have to be tried. From this wise at- tityde of the Commander-in-Chief, it should be easy for him to pass into giving orders to carry on through good report or through ill. Nothing is more important, in the days before us, than for the Washington Administration to avoid every appearance of hysteria or sudden changes of front. For the steady job that now confronts the na- tion, a steady leader is requisite. He will do his best for the country if he shows it that he is able to retain his composure even in trying circum- stances, and that he is not disposed to surprise the public and provoke doubts in the business world by ill- considered and hasty devices, or by a rash use of the extraordinary powers lodged in his hands by congress. Approximately 170,000 new passen- ger autos were sold in the United States in July, 1933. as compared to 104,188 in July, 1932, and 174,190 in dune, 1933. self-addressed envelope is enclosed.

IF YOU SLEPT LIKE A TOP YOU TOSSED ALL NIGHT Observations of many normal in- dividuals asleep have shown that healthy persons in a good night’s sleep change their position from 20 to 45 times. Some of the positions a 'sleeper assumes for anywhere from a minute to half an hour are con- tortions rather than relaxtions. Mere changes of position give rest. Physi- cians recognize this fact when they instruct the nurse to turn the pros- trated, perhaps delirious or uncon- scious patient from side to side regu- larly. Valetudinarians often ask whether ene should sleep on the right side or on the left, prone or supine, stretched out or curled up, with pillow or with- out, under many covers or none, in a warm room or a cold one, under a draft from open windows or fan or protected from the breeze. There is only one answer to all these questions. Sleep in whatever posture and sur- roundings you like. For instance if you harbor quaint notions about the effects of drafts or “exposure to cold,” or if you take the half-baked warnings of our self- styled “scientific” health authorities as seriously as they do, it would prob- ably spoil your sleep to leave the fan going or the window open on a sultry night—you’d be so afraid of pneu- monia you couldn't sleep. Far better a restless night of fiftful sweltering than hours of silent vigil—for a mind none too strong. In sleep the breathing becomes slower and deeper—deeper because it is freer, uninhibited by consicousness, free as when one is under the effects of anesthesia. The breathing in sleep is belly breathing. A simple belly breathing exercise at sleepy time sends thousands of invalids and well folk off to happy dreams every night. Send a stamped addressed envelope and ask for the Belly Breathing in- structions. It will not cure anything, but on the other hand it will do no one any harm to practice Belly Breathing a few moments night and and in the skin. The skin is warm and slightly flushed; the arms and legs are slightly enlarged or swollen. Every one knows that warmth, espe- cially in the hands and feet, conduces. to sleepiness. Thousands of our read- ers know that the Belly Breathing exercise conduces to warmth of the feet. In a healthy sleeping person the eyeballs roll upward and outward and the pupils aré contracted as in opium, Jaudanum or morphine poisoning. The skin, too, is warm and dryj as in the early stage of opium poisoning. Physiologists disagree as to the state of the brain in sleep. You see, it is so hard to examine the brain without waking the subject.

In normal sleep the breathing has a tendency to increase and decrease periodically, a type of breathing which in pathological exaggeration is called Cheyen-Stokes breathing, the striking. characteristic being the in- tervals of no breathing between the waning and the waxing phases. In normal sleep, too, the expiration is apt to be shorter and more audible than in waking hours. The pulse rate slows down in sleep —the heart gets rest.

Dille Co.) re NEW YORK By PAUL HARRISON New York, Aug. 23.—Central Park is a good place to drive through cas- ually, or to stroll of an evening, or attend an outdoor concert. On the whole, it’s a transient crowd that finds brief pleasure there, but there are a few isolated spots for more de- termined play by the same people, year after year. There is, for in- stance, the Union Croquet Club, which is soon to celebrate its fiftieth anniversary. It is down at the south end of the sheep meadow, on the west side of the park, and some of the members are there from morning until dusk prac- tically every day of the year. Win- they usually move over a little to an earthen baseball diamond and shovel off the snow. When it teins they merely hoist umbrellas and go ahead with their games. Such hardihood, they say, does a lot to controvert the idea that croquet players are doddering old fogies. A lot of the members are, in truth, |to the second and third generations, Many of the members are, for some Teason, physicians and clergymen. There are 35 men and 6 women. The last of the charter members died only a few years ago. He was John H. Welch, who took up the game in 1884 when his doctor told him he had only & few months to live. But croquet (he said) kept him alive for nearly half a century. The women hold their own with Tale competition, especially a Mrs who started playing from & wheeled chair several years ago and now walks around as well as anybody. She doesn’t think, though, that she would be any match for Neysa Mc- Mein or Kathleen Norris, who are possibly the best women croquet play- ers in the United States... The Union Club’s best players are men—Walter McCabe, a retired business man; Gleb Derujinsky, the sculptor; and Lars Gardell, a retired sea captain. ee % BOWLING ON THE GREEN Then there’s the New York Lawn Bowling Club, which traces its lineage back to New York's earliest days, and | has been at the other end of the Cen- | tral Park sheep meadow for many) jyears, There are some 50 members of this organization too, and they com- cept that most of them are Scotch; and that they bitterly resent the sug- gestion that bowling on the green is; an ancient Dutch pastime. i ‘They have a fenced green, with a speciai permit from the city, and they bowl there four days a week. In some oases memberships have passed and five or six old codgers now sit around at some of the matohes to! watch thelr sons and grandsons up- | hold the family honor. x * * { SAILING YACHT MODELS { You wouldn’t think that Conser-; vatory Lake, a shallow, two-acre pool | in Central Park, would have much; attraction for a lot of he-men. But there are 60 of them who sail model boats there, and as many again who| are on the waiting list for storage space in the little boathouse nearby. No ordinary toys are these, but six elderly and retired from business, Mr. James T. Gregg, the president, is one of these; but no one could call him doddering after seeing -him swat an opponents’ ball out of bounds. HT, 1952 Levely, young Patricia Braith- wait agrees to marry wealthy, middle-aged Harvey Blaine because the father she adores is in financial straits. She hopes, however, that handsome Jack Laurence, a young camper whom she only met ence— and the enly man she ever wanted te kiss her—will rescue her from Blaine. When Jack fails te appear, she turns, in desperation, to Ji: mie Warren, her Aunt Pamela's fascinating husband. They become infatuated and Pat breaks her en- gagement, Aunt Pam i spicious bat blames herself for warning Pat that love fades, inferring that her marriage to Jimmie had failed. Feeling that Pam no longer cares, Jimmie and Pat see no wrong in their “love”. Then Jack appears, bat Pat tells him he is too late— the emotion he awakened, blos- somed to love under anether’s kiss. Jack, claiming he is the ene Pat really cares for, refeses te give up, and the next day moves to the hetel in which she alse is quartered. CHAPTER NINETEEN Jack stepped out of an elevator. “Don’t tell us that’s your date,” whispered Mary Lou, her round face glowing. He crossed to them. Patricia in- troduced him. “Mr. Laurence,” Ida echoed, “does your name happen by any chance to be—it is! You are Jack Laurence! I saw you play Yale three years ago. Girls, you know He Laurence. Ob, tell us about it.’ Mary Lou, seeing his face change, eaught his arm to her; “Don’t an- wer. She's. a rude woman.” “Mary Lou’s. right. It’s your af- fair.” They bustled him away to play ping pong which they had just de- serted in high boredom. He was an expert player and they took turns against him. It was clear to pack your things and Ben can fetch them tonight. Who was the stun- aing sheik you were talking with on the wet verands when we drove ap? “Jack Laurence.” “Not the Jack Ladrence!” “The.” “Where on earth did you meet tim and when? I didn’t see him around yesterday. Hotel pick-up? Uf so, you're swift. Or he is.” A malicious smile lighted Pat’s blue eyes. “Beach pick-up.

Tell me who you want and I'll phone them to.come for dinner tonight. Ben can fetch them.” Patricia did not want a house party. She wanted a chance to talk to Jimmie. She had to know how things stood with him. But she dared not refuse lest Pamela think it strange. ... And Jimmie, the egotistical thing, might think I want to be alone with him, Il show him... . She named several girls and the men they liked. “And who do you want? Savage or Jack Laurence?” “Oh, Jack. You'll adore him, So serious and brilliant, and so gay and boyish, too. I never knew any- body who knew better how to play.” “Quite a paragon, evidently,” commented Warren, dryly. “Oh, quite,” agreed Patricia. She felt jubilant—A cruel and beau- tiful woman setting two strong men at each other's throats... . Ah, life is nice... . Jack Laurence at once became the personage of the house party. No longer chilling as at first when Ida so crudely demanded to hear everything, he was quite frank about his disappearance. The girls thought his adventures thrilling, and even the bored young men en- vied him experiences which, though obviously gruelling at the time, were no end romantic in retrospect. Not that they used the taboo word in their thoughts. Romance was the bunk. But they felt an intangible senge of allure in hard and primi- tive life for which they had not yet found a word. They were strangely excited and would have kept him talking endlessly. But after his first free statement of the facts, while not curt, he responded to their probings with naked brev- ity, They liked naked facts in the- ory; but were disappointed that be made no effort to “dress up” his experiences. “Pretty wild country, I guess.

Did- n't ‘want the reporters to get wind of his return. Most fellows who'd had. such adventures would be shouting them from the housetops —lording it over less fortunate chaps. Arthur Savage, who came over every day in spite of the rain, made up a tale of dark Cuban in- trigue in which he, Arthur, had figured heroicly. Nobody paid\any attention, or even believed him. “Shut up, Arthur. Your technique is rotten. Read a good adventure tale before you try to get off an- other one.” Whereupon Arthur sub- sided, his dark face sullen with defeat. How it rained!

A chill wind blowing. Palm Beach’s disgruntled paymasters, enraged by the dishonesty of a state selling sunshine and giving short measure, returned in train- loads to more equable Northern climates where three days of rain came not in winter, and sweaters were not needed to ward off cold. There was no bathing, no tennis, no joyriding, nor hiking. Even the tea dansants in the Pavilion which always helped fill an hour or so of afternoons had to be discontinued. The hotels were like tombs. The Warren villa, alone, was never dull. Patricia’s house party was a veritable “godsend” to the entire youth of the colony. Pamela was not a novice at entertaining and saw to it that her restless guests were occupied from late breakfast till midnight supper. But expert as she was, she thanked the gods for Jack Laurence. While in no sense an “entertainer,” he had within himself a fathomless well of joy. He did an amazing number of things—out of date things, often, ‘which, nevertheless, were amusing. Like playing the guitar. He said he had picked it up from the Mexicans, which was “keen”. But he decidedly had not’picked up the rich mellow voice that filled the room when he sang. And it was “too killing” the ‘way he always singled out one of the girls, singing to her, eyes de- spairing, impersonating some old- time Italian or gypsy swain. He never chose Patricia for his play- acting. He was too serious about her, one supposed. But they didn’t mind, They were “thrilled” to be singled out by him in any way. He played the piano too. How he played! Anything you put before him. Jazz if you wanted it, But also Beethoven and Schubert when throbbing quality in nis olaying that ached. inside of you.
