Tugwell, who succeeded Prof. Moley as President Roosevelt's chief brain twister, and Frederick Sullens, edi- tor of the Jackson (Miss.) Daily News, The cause of the dispute is Prof. ‘Tugwell’s espousal of a change in the food and drug act which would, among other things, require that the formulae of all proprietary or pa- tent medicines be printed on the la- .20/ ity, which are nearly 5,000 pounds 50| considering the use of light-weight in the columns of this newspaper. Tribune|* votes against the sales tax, and most observers predict that it will, the fact will be notice that Propaganda and high-pressure meth- ods are not, in themselves, enough to swing an election. It will be proof that the mere reiteration of argu- ments does not lend weight to them. Hope They Succeed i Tests now are being made by the American Railway association with five box cars, each of 50 tons capac- lighter than those now in use. They were designed by a commit- tee on car construction and the re- duction in weight was brought about by a better arrangement of the steel framework. Now the committee is alloys which may still further reduce the dead weight of freight-carrying vehicles, The average shipper will hope these experiments prove successful, for in them, as well as in other parts of the field of refinement and im- provement, lies a major hope for re- duced freight rates, It is clear that certain costs of railroad operation cannot be reduced much, if any. Other items of cost appear to be out of the hands of rail- road management. The public is paying and will continue to pay a tremendous freight bill unless ways can be found of making railroad operations more economical. The new car undoubtedly is a fal- tering step in the right direction. Every time a pound of dead weight 4s taken from a box car it means ® pound less for the engine to draw and a corresponding cut in the cost of transporting the freight within the car. Eventually, these savings will find dels, It also would seriously handi- cap the general sale of many reme- dies which have come to be regarded by the American public as standard preparations. In 8 telegram to Editor Sullens Tugwell asks if he is “willing to sacri- fice public health to advertising prof- it” What the southern gentleman said to the professor could not be encom- passed by a telegram of reasonable Jength, so he indicted a letter. The first sentence is: “The inclina- tion is strong to tell you to go to hell, but I won't.” The last sentence is: “As viewed from this distance you look like a ttle man wobbling around in a pair of large boots.” In between there were other state- ments which prove that southern edi- tors still can drink their liquor straight, whether they do or not. By way of addendum, Editor Sul- Jens declares that proprietary reme- dies have been veritable godsends to the people of Mississippi, especially those in remote rural communities; that they have saved the lives of mil- lions and that neither such reme- dies or doctors may be regarded as curealls. He is opposed to restricting their sale. Turning his bludgeon on the me- dical profession, which presumably is backing Tugwell, Sullens avers that, “if the fakes were eliminated from’ the list of proprietary medicines and the unqualified and incompetents were removed from the medical pro- fession, the score at the end of the ninth inning would be about 10 to 1 in favor of the proprietary remedies.” ‘Without knowing too much about. so technical a subject, the average man will feel it wise for the govern- ment to go slowly before it imposes handicaps upon the sale and distri- bution of general remedies, Most of them are prepared from doctors’ pre- seriptions and it is not unknown for druggists to wash off the labels, af- fix the doctor’s prescription, and charge prescription prices for them. Restrictions against unwarranted claims for such remedies are, of course, fully justified, but for such firms as tell an honest story about their preparations there should be no undue restriction unless it clearly is in the public interest. Even national lawmakers should bear in mind that many who seek restrictive laws do so because their enactment will be of personal bene- tit. their way back to the shipper of freight and new possibilities will be Opened for commerce which now finds high freight rates a severe handicap. Machado Must Chuckle Gerardo Machado must chuckle, from his retreat in Montreal, Can- ada, at the current situation in Cuba. Machado, it will be remembered, Preserved peace in the island for sev- eral years only by an iron rule. He was ousted because of pressure brought to bear by the United States government when the excesses and brutalities of the Cuban government became an outrage to civilized per- sons. It is impossible to defend the reign) of terror which Machado and his henchmen inflicted on Cuba. No one elt and the atrocities which were com- mitted in his name.

But they were at one of those impasses that married folks seem to reach at one time or another; resentful toward each other, proud, avoiding explanation that might have brought understanding, and generally discontented.” “But he told me,” gasped Mrs. Brownley, “that there was nothing between you and him.” “There wasn’t. And because there wasn’t he probably imagines he still wants me. It’s an awful muddle.” Mrs. Brownley made pictures on the tablecloth with a fork. “You! really are rather bitter.
