Weekly by mail in state, three his home city and that answer rings with sincerity and truth. In recent weeks we have had « large number of persons demanding that President Roosevelt dismiss Wal- lace from the cabinet. He has been charged with any number of things, but always in general terms. The in- Gictments of the secretary by self- seeking politicians and self-styled farm leaders have never been specific. ‘Usually they have been based on his refusal to adopt one of the various “quick and easy” ways to farm pros- perity which have been suggested by those who would accept no responsi- bility if the ideas were espoused. Of necessity, therefore, the secre- tary'’s answer consisted of a general survey of the farm situation and his reactions to it. Naturally, he took cognizance of the so-called “farm strike”, and his statement regarding it docs credit to him as # true American. He made it plain that he has refused to use the Power of the government “in various Subterranean ways” to disrupt the farm strike and the entire holiday movement on the theory that the best ‘way to end such disturbances is to “get more money into the farmers’ hands.” That is what he is trying to do and it appears that he is in a fair way to succeed, but he stressed the fact that success is possible only if farm- ets stand united and fight the battle shoulder to shoulder. He made it quite clear that the farmers can do more to wreck the effort to help them than any other class and that the farm strike is, essentially, a wrecking movement. An excerpt from his speech, as re- Ported by the Associated Preas, bears careful study. Everyone interested in the farming situation should read and re-read it. Here it is: “I have been neither surprised field with the municipally owned plant or will it be forced out of busi- ness?

It means that poles of two different utilities will clutter up its streets and alleys and that neither utility will prosper. If the second course is followed, what is to become of the property Ld owned by the utility company? It is all very well to say that such firms are rich and can stand the loss or that they are bloodsuckers and should be driven out of business any- 50 | way, but analysis of these statements Proves they are untrue. ‘Utility stocks and bonds are held by the people generally. Wrecking the —| private plant at Jamestown would wreck, or at least seriously injure, the fortunes of many persons, most of them of small means, who have in- vested their savings in these securi- ties.

It is the people generally, In the situation at Jamestown, as well as in other cities where munici- pal ownership is being suggested, it is sincerely to be hoped that a fair and equitable solution of this prob- lem will be worked out. ——_—___________-+ | Brothers Reunited By Salvation Army | —_—_——__—_——"“* Raleigh, N.

THE CAUSES OF CVD Cardiovascular degeneration or dis- ease (CVD) includes hardening of the arteries, myocarditis or slow heart muscle failure, angina pectoris, many cases of apopelxy (cerebral hemor- rhage, stroke or paralysis) and many cages of apoplexy (cerebral hemor- disease). Besides this general condi- tion embraces a good many cases of “general breakdown” where the brunt of the degeneration is not felt chiefly in one of these more familiar mani- festations. CVD now tops the list in the causes of death. Nearly all of us will die of it if we live long and wrong enough. What we doctors don’t know about the causes of CVD fills many tomes. When we don't know much we always lean heavily on theory. Before we consider the nature and cause of the condition we had better dispose of one or two false conceptions based on exploded theories. First, the old saying that @ man is as old as his arteries served to fix attention unduly upon the arteries. se, A Man or a woman or & child is as old as his arteries or his muscles or his lungs or his teeth. If @ man has gray hair you wouldn't conclude he is old because his hair is y; his hair is gray because the man is old. Second, the theory that too much meat is hard on the arteries, the kid- neys, the blood pressure or something. This theory was based on another theory, that animal protein or nitro- genous matter (albumen, lean meat) more readily undergoes putrefaction in the intestine and that the products of putrefaction are more or less pol- sonous and are absorbed into the blood and produce a kind of poisoning ot the system called “autointoxica- tion.” TI assure you this is all a mis- take. Scientifically no such systemic polsoning has been demonstrated. Practically, experimentally, the exces- sive consumption of meat by man has been proved quite harmless. So I assert without fear of competent con- tradiction that there is no reason why CVD patients or persons train- ing for cardiovascular degeneration a small army wandering restless- jy as winter approaches.

D., Nov. 13.—(®)— Applications for federal public works loans and grants totaling about $400,- 000 were made to the North Dakota committee here Monday by the city of Grand Forks. The applications included a request for a $70000 grant and 20-year loan on a $316,000 sewage disposal plant and an $82,000 paving project. Two other projects discussed were paving proposals and applications will be made about December 15. 8. J.

Montana Man Shoots Three; Kills Himself Columbus, Mont., Nov. 13.—(#)—Re- turning from a neighborhood dance with his wife, Frank Eves, about 45, shot and wounded her and their two children and then committed suicide Sunday.

Third, the overeating idea—mind I don't call overeating a theory. There 1s, I believe, good reason to think that one who regularly eats more than he can metabolize to advantage (and this includes victuals and beverages), does put a load, a strain, a burden on his heart and arteries and courts a “PERSONAL HEALTH SERVICE Brady, M.

As a rule, per- sons who overeat perform their out- standing feats in the domain of the delectable carbohydrates, starches, sugars, breads, cakes, pistries, sweets -—because these are the easiest to eat and most available. Frankly I don’t know whether overeating has any- thing to do with CVD or not, but most, good physicians still feel that it may be a factor. Perhaps the real factor concerned where overeating is avow- edly a habit is neglect of exercise. The older medical authors all men- tion alcohol as one of the causes of arteriosclerosis or CVD, but recently some good medical authorities have doubted whether alcoholism is a fac- tor. Personally, I incline to the be- lief that it is not alcohol itself, but evils which alcoholism or intemper- ance favors, that are the real causes —notably venery and syphilis. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Sinus Infection Many thanks for your fine health service. By the regular use of cod liver oil from October to May each year I have enjoyed comparative fyee- dom from aggravated attacks now for veveral years—a suggestion I found in your column. (B. A. J.) Answer—Because of its Vitamin A, cod liver oil, or perhaps better halibut liver oil, is helpful to persons subject to sinusitis or other upper respiratory tract infections.

Street lights were turned on in the daytime because it was as dark {48 night at noon, Traffic was hampered seriously the vicinity of Thief River Falls, Minn., where a blizzard was raging. A north wind was blowing with the mercury hovering around zero. ‘Windom reported a “terrific dust storm” while at Vermilion, 8. D., traffic was at a standstill and streets were deserted as residents sought shelter in their homes. Though the official maximum wind velocity for Sunday was placed at only 50 miles an hour, Meteorologist Rot erts explained that the four-cup ane- mometer recorded a velocity of 64 miles per hour. How Wind Is Measured “For nearly 60 years the weather bureau here has kept a record of wind velocities,” he said. “These records show the hourly, daily, monthly and annual movement of the wind and. also the maximum velocity (the high- est velocity for any five consecutive minutes) and the extreme velocity (the fastest mile recorded). From the beginning of the record in 1874 to) the close of 1927, records were obtain- ed by the use of a four-cup anemo- meter. From Jan. 1, 1928, to Decem- ber 31, 1931, @ three-cup anemo- meter was used, which instrument re- corded lesser movement and lower resumed, but the values were reduced to what we term ‘true velocities’. For necessary to quote the actual velocit- ties recorded. For instance, Sunday forenoon our anemometer recorded a wind velocity at the rate of 64 miles per hour for a period of five minutes, which is the highest of record for November at Bismarck, the ne approach being 60 miles per he on Noy. 27, 1877. According to our re- vised tables, however, we publish the maximum velocity on Sunday as 50 miles per hour. 40 Is Damaging Point “As a rule not much wind damage occurs unless velocities of 40 miles per hour or more are reached, and during the nearly 28 years in which I have had charge of the Bismarck station, practically all inquiries re- garding wind damage have been for losses incurred by winds above 40 miles Brady Baby Book.” Wart's This, Wart's This?

The gale also tore down the “lead” jong distance telephone cable leading east of the city, ripping two poles out of the ground, near the state highway department shop in the eastern part of the city, according to Frank H. Waldo, manager of the Northwestern Bell Telephone company here. The “lead” cable included 48 wires, which were crippled all forenoon and part of the afternoon, Waldo said. Three Airplanes Damaged Three airplanes were ripped loose from their moorings and damaged at Bismarck and Mandan airports, ac- cording to weather officials. One damaged at the local airport belonged to Frank Irvine of Bismarck. Two planes damaged at the Ben Eielson (Mandan) airport belonged to John Osterhouse of Stanton and a Carson man, More than half a dozen plate glass windows on local ss houses were blown in, police reported, and damage to windows in the residential sections was great. Northwest Airways’ plane service was interrupted by the gale which, 1,500 feet above the ground, reached a maximum of 118 miles per hour, ac- cording to O. W. Roberts, federal meteorologist here. Plane service was resumed Monday morning, however, when Pilot William Straight left shortly before 7 o'clock for Miles City, Mont. Most of the billboards between Menoken and Mandan were reported ripped out by the storm. A 46-mile and hour gale swept the kota, where the wind was reported to have ranged from 40 to 60 miles an hour, In that state, huge clouds of dust swirled about and made day ap- pear like night. Trees and signboards were blown down at Mitchell, Watertown, Yank- ton, Sioux Falls and other points in South Dakota, but no serious damage had been reported late Sunday. Telephone communications between Sioux Falls and Pierre, Huron and Hayti were disrupted. Motorists were forced to use automobile headlights at midday and residences had to be illuminated throughout the day. Late in the afternoon, the wind died down somewhat and the air became clearer. At Pipestone, Minn., the worst dust storm in its history was reported, whipping dirt from fields and making driving difficult. In central Minnesota snow fell late jn the day. St. Paul and Minneap- vlis reported trees, signs and windows broken, Steel Hangar Wrecked At Tracy, a steel hangar equipped to house three airplanes was blown over, wrecking two ships. Numerous other smaller structures were reported wrecked by the wind. Fairmont, Minn., reported a 50-mile an hour wind which broke up all the ice in lakes in that vicinity. Dust also filled the air there. At Huron, 8. D. per hour.” ‘The gale caused no damage to the new capitol building, situated on the top of the hill, contrary to reports, Captain Wanner said. The wind, however, ripped out the large can- vass which had covered the window and door openings at the front of the structure, but the covering was re- Placed immediately after the wind subsided Sunday afternoon. As the Northwest and Middlewest were pelted with a series of blind- ing hard-driven wind and dust storms Sunday, death, property damage and discomfort were dealt by a heavy snow storm in Eastern sections. Dozen Die in East A dozen or more deaths were attri- buted to the snow and winds. Seven of the deaths occurred in the Roches- ter, N. Y., region, blanked by snow over the week-end. Driven by high winds, originating over Saskatchewan, the Midwest del- uge of dust early Monday apparently ‘was sweeping toward the East, where it was expected to spend itself in rain. Property damage was reported at many Northwest points, including 8t. Paul, Omaha, Minneapolis and Des Moines, and airplanes were held to the’ ground in Kansas City and St. Louis. * A scaffold toppled at Clinton, Ia,, killing Raymond L. Ross, 29, of Los Angeles. Laurence Linn, 27, of near Whitehall, Ill, lost his life when he walked in front of an automobile while blinded by dust. The swirling dust caught the crowds at the closing night at Chicago's Cen- tury of Progress, sending scores of men, women and children to the fair’s hospital for eye treatment. .
