Poland’s Laurels On Sept. 12 Poles throughout the world will celebrate the anniversary of the battle of Vienna in which the Cross of Christendom triumphed over the crescent of the Turk. Others might well celebrate with them, for the contest was one of those which historians have chosen to label as decisive in their effect upon sub- sequent world history. The setting of the battle is easily told. Europe was divided into many small nations when up from the south swept the Turks, their war cry an insult to all Christendom. Ap- proaching Vienna they met and de- feated the defending army and cut it off from: the town. Then began @ siege which was to bring starvation and death to many in the Austrian city with its comparative handful of defenders. Into this situation came Jan Sobie- ski, elective king of Poland and self- appointed defender of Christendom. Mustering his own army, he started from Krakow for Vienna. On the way he picked up enough other troops to count between 70,000 and 80,000 and these he launched against the Turks and Tartars besieging the city. Victory was complete and the Turks fled in disorder. Christendom was saved from further menace. Though ‘they ‘ruled the Balkan countries for years thereafter, they never again crossed the Danube on a mission of war. To the Poles went the glory of vic- tory. For them it was a great day, though a relatively short one, for a century later Russia, Prussia and Austria were casting lots for the once great Polish empire. Other wars came and there was no great leader to unite the nation against its foes. It is @ far cry from Jan Sobieski at Vienna to North Dakota in 1933, Yet the connection is clear enough. Had there been no great Polish patriot, or had the result of the battle been reversed, we might have had a Mos- Jem Europe and this country might still have been undiscovered. America can take pride-in Sobieski and in Kosciuszko, who helped win freedom for America, because of the part which the Poles have had in advancing the cause of freedom both here and elsewhere throughout the world. It can take satisfaction in the thought that the debt we owe a great . race was in part repaid when, through America’s influence after the World war, Poland was re-established as a Jeading power in central Europe. Making a Bad Guess Enterprising publicity men, seeking to keep Chicago's Century of Progress in the limelight, gravely assure us that the carrying of canes by Ameri- can men will be one of the results of the great exposition. Hiding behind some convenient hula dancer or the corner of buildings, they have inspected genus homo as he visited the fair. Now they come up with the announcement that five per cent of American males are carrying canes. This, they assert, is but the Difficult to Die If the passing years ‘have borne in upon many the difficulty of making ‘a living, they also have demonstrated clearly enough that it also is becom- ing more difficult to die. Mortality statistics show that the average American is bearing up rather well under his distresses, or at least shows no unusual disposition to shuffle off the mortal coil. The death rate among millions of industrial policyholders of a leading insurance firm in July was.only 7.4 Per 1,000, the second lowest on record. The same thing is true of the cumula- tive death rate for the first seven months of this year. Diphtheria and tuberculosis hit new lows and pneumonia has not been as deadly this year as for many years past. Of considerable interest, also, is the fact that the suicide rate has taken @ sharp drop, being 4.6 per cent less for 1932 than for the corresponding Period of last year. Whether due to the New Deal or some other cause these are the facts, Unfavorable aspects are new high death rates for cancer, diabetes and heart disease, Abusing ‘Model Prisons’ Some time ago New York state spent a good deal of money on model prison—an institution out in the open country, without walls or iron bars, very different from the ordinary penitentiary. It was hoped that it could be a place for the re- habilitation of young criminals, Right now the state is somewhat disturbed because certain convicts who have a good deal of political in- fluence are getting transferred to that Prison from such places as Sing Sing and Dannemora. The most recent transfer is that of a former deputy county treasurer, who was.sent up a couple of months ago for going south with $248,000 of county funds, And right here you have a pretty good explanation of the widespread Public hostility to “model prison” schemes. A model prison that is ac- tually used to reform young criminals 45 a good thing; one that merely serves as a comfortable refuge for crooks who have a drag is something entirely different. Until that sort of thing ends the public will continue to look on prison reform movements with suspicion. Those Nazi Zealots The Nazi zealots who are in power in Germany have found a number of ways to make themselves look ridicu- lous, but in nothing have they auc- ceeded quite as completely as in their current desire to keep “Aryan” girls from having dates with Jewish boy friends, A Nazi daily paper published at Mannheim, Baden, makes a practice of printing each day the names of girls who have dates with Jewish boys. The column is headed: “In the Pillory—Jews’ Sweethearts.” Just how these names are obtained is not quite clear, unless jealous Aryan lads are invited to squeal; but in any case the whole stunt seems to be about as petty and nonsensical as anything the Nazis have yet devised. A national political party which descends to meddling with the dates @ girl can have has got down to a Pretty low level. Editorial Comment Editorials printed below show the trend of thought by other editors, They are published without regard to whether they agree or disagi with The Tribune's policies, An Appeal to Prudence (Minneapolis Tribune) Although appeals to patriotism have been freely used in connection with the recovery campaign, and these have not been entirely wasted, Gen- eral Johnson's assertion that the na- tional drive to stimulate buying will make no use of the patriotic motive Teflects a wise decision. Patriotic duty would hardly seem to be a very ive reason for extending pur- chases; in fact if that were the only reason, such a drive would prove to be of very limited usefulness, In mak- ing the keynote of this frequently de- layed drive an effort to convince peo- ple that free buying is a prudent use of money, General Johnson has at least hit upon an argument that of- fers some opportunity for practical beginning of a trend. Ere long every American will be learning the vanish- ed art of swing and twiddle. reasoning. The campaign which the adminis- tration is planning will probably be delayed until late September, at which There is something to be said for|time canes, of course. They give the awk- ‘ward male something with which to occupy his hands in his moments of idleness. But, countering that, they offer @ problem in themselves. What does one do with s cane when it, in turn, becomes embarrassing. One need not speculate too strong- ly, because it #0 happens thet the boys are wrong. No matter what World fair statisticians say, there is “little danger of American men becom- “ing addicted to canes. An English- ene ey ?

RESISTANCE IS JUST TOO BAD Gratitude, said some one who did not make Bartlett, is a lively antici- pation of favors yet to come. Resistance is something to regret the poor chap did not have. organ of the American Medical as- Sociation—of which I’m a jolly good Fellow, you know, as well as a thorn in the flesh—warned all our dumb cocs last February that “the hazards of exposure, of stuffy indoor living at this time of year make it espe- sistance-built up.” The same week the following warn- ing was broadcast through the daily Papers of the country: “Watch out for drafts, wet feet, raw winds, stuffy rooms, of course, but don’t depend entirely on outer precautions. Build up your inner resources. Increase your general resistance.” In both instances the implication was that all you had to do was take @ cod liver oil concentrate which was provided in convenient form. No harm in that. Nor have I any ‘An announcement in the ofticial|® objection to the exploitation of pop- ular credulity by the manufacturer of the high class nostrum.

Then he can turn to the lay press with all the assurance in the world, for does he not come practically bearing the in- dorsement of the entire medical pro- fession of the country? Here it is proper to assert once more—and I doubt that any officer or member of the American Medical association will attempt to refute the assertion—that there is no scientific foundation for the notion that any one can have “general resistance” which protects against all or against many diseases, respiratory or other- wise. I further assert that any phy- sicilan who undertakes to “build up resistance” is merely marking time with impressive language. Immunity is a well established scientific fact. We have some evidence for the be- lief that cod liver oil may aid in the development of the fullest degree of immunity against the cri, due to the richness of cod liver in Vitamin A— or halibut liver oil or any other fish liver oil. The ultraviolet rays of sun- light or any artificial light that con- tains ultraviolet rays probably aids the normal development of immunity against upper respiratory infections and sinus infections. Besides the fish liver oils, Vitamin A is present in yolk of egg, in raw fresh milk and arrot, parsnips, liver, kidney, breads, most of the green leafy re- Uishes and raw salad vegetables. But it is utterly ridiculous for phy- to even seem to acquiesce in the suggestion that drafts, wet feet, taw winds, stuffy indoor living or other similar “hazards of 4 exposure” have anything to do with disease, even if we do make good money by giving the idea our sanction.

When labor's representatives here agreed to join in a “no strike” appeal, industry conceded support to creation of the National Labor Board with its plan for fair, elections to determine whom workers wanted to represent them in collective bargaining under the recovery act. But as soon as one strike is set- tled a dozen more break out. There is no authority’ here to stop strikes, and often the strikers are able to say that they are only upholding the law in its provisions for recognition H of representatives of their own choos- ing. Secret elections, held under N. L. B. auspices, are fine for the unions. The Reading, Pa. textile workers voted 75 per cent for union represent- atives, placing 95 per cent of the workers in mills involved under un- fon jurisdiction. Gerard Swope, Louis Kerstein and ‘Walter Teagle—the board’s indus- trialist members—now want to go slow on such elections. Swope, head of General Electric, found an especially heavy cross to bear when demands came for an elec- tion in a section of the affiliated ‘Westinghouse company.

Ps ee 4% EDITOR'S PARDON SOUGHT Roosevelt will soon be asked to pardon George Dale, militant editor of Muncie, Ind., who won national fame a few years ago in his fight against the Ku Klux Klan. After years of fighting graft and hard-boiled officials, Dale defeated his political enemies and was elected mayor of Muncie. But last year he was arrested with other members of his administratiou and sentenced in federal court to 18 months in prison on a liquor law violation indictment. He is on bond pending appeal. Dale and his friends charge a frame-up by bootleggers, gamblers and crooks whom the mayor had put out of business. * ee * MRS.

CHAPTER THIRTY-ONE Pam fied up the stairs to her room, and snatching a long cape from the closet, ran down the hall to a back stairway. She had to see, even if she could not hear, what took place on that balcony. Would Arthur make a scene and humiliate hem all? He was desperate enough to do anything. Grateful for the moonless black- ness outside, she dodged through the shrubbery. The veranda was bright as day; but the three she sought were not among the prom- enaders. So great was her relief that her knees gave and she sank down on the turf in the shadow of a spreading oleander. Suddenly she heard Pat’s light voice. Now she made out her white dress and the blur of a man’s shirt front. They stopped not more than a yard from where Pamela huddled among the branches of the oleander. She tried to rise, to come out into the open. But a hideous paralysis held her. “What did you want to see me about, Pat?” came Warren’s voice. “You know we ought not to have come out here. No doubt dozens of people saw us.” “I don’t care who saw us. Oh, Jimmie, I’m so miserable Jimmie, aren’t you going to kiss me?” Her b. voice broke i There was a thought she was going to faint. She opened her mouth to make some sound that would stop them, but her throat was dry, and all at once she knew that even if she could speak, she wouldn’t. That she had to hear what Jimmie had to say. What Pat said was of no im- portance. She was a little fool. A child. But all Pamela’s future hung in the balance of Jimmie’s next few words. Civilized ethics were nothing to her. Ske was primitive woman, loving, hoping, fearing, claiming her man at any cost. After a space, Warren said hoarsely: “Not tonight, darling, I— Oh, Pat, don’t make it so hard for me to be decent. Don’t, Pat. Your father trusted me——” “You have strange ideas of trust, and decency,” she said furiously, “If you are so darned particular now, what about later? You think it'll be any more decent to betray his trust later?” “No.” “Then—then—oh, Jimmie, don’t . you love me any more?” “For God’s sake, Pat, don’t you know that every fibre of my body is aching for you? Don’t you see that. I can’t keep away from you even though I can see you only in pub- lie? Don’t you know what a strain T've been under ever since — that night, recollecting the sweetness of, your lips, yet not daring to touch yout” faint moan escaped Pamel; but they were too absorbed to haan “Then what are you going to do, ea leaven knows,” “Haven't you thought?” “No.” “But you must.
