Green of Chicago believes that habitual criminals ought to be electrocuted, and that moving pictures of the executions should be taken and exhibited for the education of first offenders. The habitual criminal, he said the other day, has forfeited the right to live in society and should be done away with; and if beginners in crime could see, on a moving picture screen, all the details of executions they would be so filled with horror and fear that they promptly would give up the life of crime and return to honorable ways. The only trouble with all this is that it has been tried before, and it hasn't worked. A century or so ago England tried hanging as many of its criminals as it could lead to the gal. lows; and it made the hangings pub- lic, as a lesson to youth. Instead of providing a useful les- son, these public hangings became popular spectacles; indeed, unper- turbed young criminals used to attend them to pick the pockets of other spectators—although that crime itself was a Capital offense. Our crime problem needs a more ‘up-to-date solution than this one. Perfect Americanization ‘There is something intensely inter- esting about the recent revelation of the names of the Moy family, in San Francisco's Chinatown. Maybe you didn't read about it, in the papers? Well, there are seven sons in this family of California's Chinese, and their names are as fol- lows: William Howard Taft Moy. Thomas Jefferson Moy, Theodore Roosevelt Moy, Abraham Lincoln Moy, William McKinley Moy, Ulysses 8. Grant Moy, and George Washing- ton Moy. The roll call speaks for itself. It indicates not only a pretty thorough bit of Americanization, but a staunch and lusty pride in the land of this family’s adoption. Here, apparently, !s one Chinese family that has done everything hu- manly possible to become 100 per cent American. Glancing at those names, one can do no less than wish the San Fran- cisco Moys lots of luck and all the prosperity they can stand. Relief from Worry ‘The announcement from Washing- ton that the United States fleet is to be concentrated in the Atlantic next spring—for the first time in about four years—is, when you stop to}! think about it, good news. Both the battle and scouting fleets have been in Pacific waters of late, and it was impossible to avoid the impression that the government, in keeping them there, was devoting at least a part of its attention to the possibility of trouble with Japan: Furthermore, the Japanese them- selves got this impression. Our con- cause it was more comfortable than after an outburst of violence in connection with a cotton mill strike at Mobile— were offered their freedom on bond and turned it down. “We have running hot water in jail for baths, which beats heating water in » tin pail and washing in a laun- dry tub all hollow,” one of them ex- }00 | plained. ‘When you reflect on what a dis- mal place the ordinary county jail is, and then reflect further on the fact that even such accommodations seemed to these women preferable to their own homes, you get an appall- ing glimpse at the living conditions with which some American citizens must put up. Back to Bourgeoisie! If you ever wonder just what the Russian experiment is going to look like 20 years from now, you might be interested to learn that a golf course is being built in Moscow. To begin with, Moscow never before has had a golf course. And in the second place, Communist writers have united in calling golf “a hope- lessly bourgeois game”—a criticism which seems entirely justified. Somehow, it is a little hard to im- agine earnest Communists getting a kick out of golf. It just naturally isn't a game that promotes class con- sciousness. It doesn’t belong in the Russian picture at all. The aura of rugged individualism hangs over it. If Soviet Russia goes in for golf, it is offering the capitalistic world a pretty fair-sized opening. A golf- playing Communist is half converted. Another Big Push ‘The public works administration's $135,000,000 loan to the railroads for new construction and new equipment well may turn out to be one of the biggest factors in bringing about in- dustrial recovery. To begin with, $51,009,000 goes di. rectly to the steel industry. An order of that size cannot fail to bring that industry a strong revival; and it is axiomatic that a flourishing steel in- dustry means good business in many other lines as well. Furthermore, the new construction which the loan makes possible will affect a number of industries. It means the re-employment of a great many idle men—20,000 within a month, according to one estimate. All in all, the loan ought to have an exceedingly good effect on gen- eral industrial recovery. The Thread We Live By The fearful and wonderful way in which human life exists in a universe which is forever hostile to it is shown graphically in the annual report of the Smithsonian Institution. Dr. Charles G. Abbot points out that the only thing that keeps the ultra- violet rays of the sun from killing all mankind is a thin layer of ozone in the upper reaches of the stratosphere. This belt of vapor is so nebulous that, if concentrated, it would be less than an eighth of an inch thick. Thin as it is, however, it keeps the sun's rays from blistering us to death in short order. And Dr. Abbot adds that if the lay- er were thicker, the ultra-violet rays would be cut off altogether—and in |tion. that case, too, life would be impos. sible. | Only the most delicate of hair-line adjustments make the existence of the human race possible.

D DIATHERMY OF TONSILS FOR CHILDREN In a contribution to the medical press a throat specialist who has had ‘considerable experience with tonsil diathermy (electro-coagulation) says: “In children the surgical method is the operation of choice.” The doctor states arbitrarily what is a debatable question. Not every physician who attempts to employ diathermy (electro-coagulation) for the extirpation of tonsils or for other operations is capable of using the method successfully in young children. But certainly some physicians succeed with the method in the case of chil- dren from five to twelve years of age. Tt is mainly a question of the child's training—some children will sit in the dentist’s chair and permit the dentist to treat their teeth, put in fillings, ete. Others have been brought up differently and it is difficult or im- possible to manage them. A child who will submit to ordinary dental treatment may make just as good a patient for diathermy extirpation of the tonsils, provided the physician is skilful, patient and blessed with the knack of handling children and gain- ing their confidence. ‘The specialist means removal of the tonsil by dissection or by the guillotine and snare, in short the old Spanish custom, when he speaks of the “sur- gical” method. But in fact the dia- thermy or electro-coagulation method is a “surgical” method, and indeed the physician who uses it successfully requires rather more skill than is needed to do the old fashioned opera- But this throat specialist Who re- ported his experience to the medical profession was apparently not too well informed about the effects of dia- thermy or its particular value. He describes one case, the only serious case of hemorrhage following one of his treatments. He used hemostats (artery clamps) in @ futile effort to stop the bleeding. Had he been more familiar with the uses of diathermy he would not have wasted time that way. Finally, he says, he lightly co- agulated the bleeding point and the bleeding ceased. Incidentally, there is rarely any bleeding at all when dia- thermy is skilfully used. One of the most impressive func- tions of diathermy—Iimpressive, at least, to the brass throat surgeons who still lay back their long ears and bray that the “electric” method is no good, doesn’t “get” all the tonsil, etc.—is that it has proved the best bet for stopping such bleeding after the PERSONAL HEALTH SERVICE By William Brady, M.
