Safeguard From Tyranny Among the more wild-eyed news- Paper editors, it would appear, the constitution of the United States it- ‘pelf is at stake as a result of current @conomic conditions. ‘This is fair enough. If the United States has outgrown ‘Mhis famous document, mere senti- tment should not keep us from dis- warding it. If it is useless to the people it is useless to the government which is supposed to serve the peo- ple. The constitution, itself, pro- vides methods whereby it may be ghanged. Illustration of the issue is provided by the declaration of a North Da- kota newspaper, one of the few still e@upporting Governor William Langer and one of the few to cry out against the ruling of the federal courts on the governor's embargo. Just listen to this: “Pretty soon common sense and justice are going to take the place of moss-covered constitu- tional provisions. “The federal court held against the embargo on the premises that the North Dakota legisla- ture had no right to ‘interfere with commerce. They were of the opinion that the constitution te oe United States prohibited at. “How does that square with common sense? Certainly, even a United States circuit court of appeals will not hold that a farmer is prohibited from hold- ing his wheat back if the market is unfavorable, or if he for other reasons does not wish to sell. Nor will any federal court hold that a rancher has no right to refuse to ship cattle under the same cir- cumstances. “If the individual has optional rights to declare embargo at all tines, would it not, then, be log- ical to assume that the people, collectively, had the same right in an emergency? And if the People had the right, as they should have, it is for their chosen spokesmen in the legislature to exercise that right.” As often is the case, this argument €arries its own answer. If one assumes that individuals are barred by the constitution from exer- cising their own judgment with re- gard to their own property, as the editor complains, it is sound enough. But such is clearly not the case. ‘The only interference with individual freedom of action has been that of the governor in declaring the em- Dargo. The constitution is established to Protect the citizen from his own gov- ernment and prevent it from becom- ing a tyranny. It was intended to i t not be sold. It appears very much as though the real reason behind the protests is fear that the system for manufac- be wrecked. No one but the stock brokers will ery about that. The public has had 00 enough of manufactured stocks to last it for a long time. To Prison for Life George Hoffman was sentenced to a life term in prison Tuesday in the district court at Jamestown for the murder of his father at Bordulac. No one had any idea that his sen- tence would be less severe and there apparently is no reason why it should be, yet there seems something funda- mentally wrong with a society in which boys of such immature years commit crimes of such magnitude. That society at large must share some of the blame for offenses of this kind is apparent, for they are too common for this to be treated as ‘an isolated incident. That murder at Bordulac was a part of the warp and woof of the same pattern which sends young Chicago gangsters, not old enough to vote, out to rob and mur- der and, perhaps, end their brief careers in the electric chair. We cannot blame the late war, as so many criminologists have been fond of doing, because youths of this age were still young boys when the war closed. In the case of George Hoffman we cannot blame the environment and bad associations so frequent in large Prevent such acts as that represented by the embargo; would be useless if it did not. It also was intended to operate for the preservation of the Union; to @utline the methods by which the various states might exist in peace @nd amity with each other. It makes the welfare of the parts subservient to the welfare of the whole because only in this manner can dissolution be prevented. * On every count the constitution is ® safeguard, not a hindrance. Only fools or those whose lust for power it furbs have much argument with it. Looks Like a Good Law Much has been heard, pro and con, @ince the present session of congress pened, about changes in the securi- ties act passed at the special session dast spring. ‘This law, it will be remembered, makes all directors of a corporation engaged in selling stock liable for misrepresentations made in the sale of such securities. It also requires the submission to the federal trade cities, because he never lived in one. We can blame some indefinite thing which operates in the minds of such lads as George Hoffman to make them think of murder as an escape from a situation which to them is intolerable. This young man had trouble with his father and it may be that the parent was some- what to blame. Hard and unsympa- thetic fathers very often are at fault in the treatment of their sons. But the peculiar quirk of mentality which! caused the boy to think of cold-| blooded murder as a way out of his troubles is beyond comprehension. Can it be that the pressure of our so-called advances has upset weaker natures and developed in our young a definite strain of moral irresponsi- bility and inability to face hard- ships? Labor Offers a Hand One of the strangest experiments yet proposed in the relations between capital and labor seems to be the one recently suggested by officials of the | Cigarmakers’ International Union. | ‘These men have proposed to cigar| manufacturers an agreement ody! which the union would provide a fund of $50,000 a year to advertise and promote the sale of cigars. In| return, they ask the manufacturers to promise not to oppose complete unionization of the manufacturing) establishments. Whether this suggestion ever will} emerge from the field of theory and| get an actual test in every-day life, of course, is not yet clear, And there| is room for a vast difference of opin- fon as to its advisability. But it does point to the possibility of a new kind of cooperation between capital and labor—a kind which, if handled wisely, might produce con- siderable benefits for both sides. Editorial Comment Editorials printed below show the trend of thought by other editors. They are published without regard to whether they agree or disagree with The Tribune's policies, The Nazi in Austria (Duluth Herald) Nazi riots no longer disturb Ger- many because Nazism is in full control for the present in that country, and all opposition has been suppressed and driven into dark corners. It is not like that in Austria. Recently a Prominent Italian official visited Vienna. It happens that Italy, that is Mussolini, is opposed to a union of the present Austria and the German. republic. It was surmised that a plan was on foot to strengthen Austria’s independence of Germany, and give her an outlet to the sea on the south, through the Mediterranean. ‘There is, however, in Austria, a strong Nazi party. It is apparently short of a majority because the Doll- fuss government, now in power, is anti- Nazi. Hitler, master of Germany, is himself an Austrian and no doubt is in full sympathy with the Nazi mobs that rioted in Vienna and elsewhere in Austria. But the Austrian Nazi must be a very powerful minority when it is able to create serious riots in Vienna, the capital of Austria. The police and troops mastered the rioters, however, and 940 of them were dragged to pris- ons before noon of the day of the trouble.

COUGH AND PNEUMONIA The medical profession today is pretty much at sea as to the cause and cure of pneumonia. In recent years we have generally accepted the belief that pneumonia is! caused by a specific germ, the Pneu- | mococcus, which comes in several strains or types, and for a while we had high hopes of settling on onc particular type of pneumococcus as the arch offender, but lately it ap-j! pears that there is a whole gang of; pneumocci capable of doing this thing to the susceptible victim and by the time you have obtained finger prints or other clues to hang the crime on any member of the gang, the illness jhas got such a start that the@anti- Pneumococcic serum doesn’t seem to take hold. In the early days of pneu- mococcus typing, when we held two or three out of four types responsible, the outlook for cure for pneumonia was bright. But since the gangs have recruited so many new members I have lost interest in the search for an effective serum. My pessimism, how- ever, does not seriously dampen the ardor of the physicians, bacteriologists and laboratory research workers who are trying to develop a satisfactory serum treatment. Some day they may find the way to conquer pneumonia. It will be pleasar@er practicing medi- cine then. The doctor can answer the ‘phone, hear the complaint, send a package of antitoxin around with in- structions to the nurse, tell them to be sure and call with the money the theater in time for the feature. There is one new thought or sug- gestion which I get from the experi- mental work being done on pneu- monia. This may be just one of my queer notions. You may take it or leave it. No charge in any case. Pol. N. Coryllos and George L. Birn- baum—neither long from the old sod, I should imagine—reported on their experimental work in Archives of In- induced pneumonia in dogs by instill- ing or blowing into the bronchi some human pneumonia sputum. Some of the dogs died, and some recovered. The fatal cases were quite compar- able with lobar pneumonia. The lung conditions in the dogs that recovered were more like atelectasis. Atelectasis is simply collapse of a lung or a lobe or @ lobule—the ate- lectatic lung is comparable with the lung of @ newborn infant that has not yet breathed. No air in it. Atelectasis happens in cases of drowning, or when a foreign body “goes down the wrong way” and plugs or obstructs a bronchus. Coryllos and Birnbaum remark that “the most fre- quent agent in bronchial occlusion and the resulting varieties of atelectasis is a viscid sputum or exudate.” Now, then, Ol’ Doc Brady again Suggests that instead of monkeying with sedatives or dope that suppress, dry up or kill a cough, it is wiser-to brew yourself a pint of Fool Proof Cough Medicine, which rather tends to loosen, liquefy and help cough and expectoration, if that is what nature wishes. Here are complete instructions: Steep a tablespoonful of entire flax- @ pint of boiling water—do water for half an hour. dd one ounce of glycerin, one ounce citrate, the juice of s lem- ® drop or two of peppermint r other flavor some sugar if you wish to sweeten it’ . Dose, for an adult a tablespoonful every hour, For a child a teaspoonful every two hours. For an infant as half every 2 hours. Never mind just now the other vir- tues of this medicine. Suffice that it does act as‘a demulcent, gently occlusion of the bronchus by viscid sputum and all that.

It’s Always Open Sea- son on Robinson of Indiana . Call Halt on Postoffice Graft . Steve Won’t “Poosh.” By RODNEY DUTCHER (Tribune Washington Correspondent) Washington, Jan. 24—The consum- er who expects to benefit from NRA’s price hearmgs here is an incurable optimist. Some concerns which try to get! away with murder may be called to| task by NRA or its code authorities, but the official program calls for price-raising. Rising prices are to be; centrolled—if at all—almost entirely by competition. And competition is limited by NRA codes. That's why the Consumers’ Advis- ory Board was limited simply to pre- senting complaints as received from consumers, The consumers were business firms which buy from other business firms, The CAB’s hopes of sitting in a jndicial capacity on prices showed little likelihood of being realized. Nevertheless, there were some at the hearings who indicated a certain disquiet. Privateyl, several types of citizens questioned whether the out- stripping of purchasing power mightn’t have had a far more obvious effect on the business situations if Unele Sam hadn't started pouring out his emergency billions, Complaints from merchants in Broken Bow, Okla., and St. Edward, Neb., were first at the sessions in the ornately magnificent U. 8. Chamber ot Commerce auditorium. And you learned—at least partially—why what was a 10-cent pair of socks now costs 20 or 25 cents retail. Higher cotton prices, yarn sur- charge, processing tax, manufacturing surcharge, manufacturers’ agent sur- charge, wholesalers’ surcharge and retail surcharge all went into the in- lerease. All were attributed to in- creased cost under the recovery pro- gram. And there was no one there to de- cide who might have added a per- centage for good measure, RETORT DISCOURTEOUS Taking Arthur Robinson's hide off is what Democratic senators like to do better than anything else. Theirs is an utter lack of compunction. Tra- ditions of senatorial courtesy are sus- rended when the young Indiana Re- publican unleashes one of his frequent anti-administration attacks. Thus it was almost a matter of course when, after Robinson had an- swered Senator Pat Harrison’s heck- ling with the assertion that if Pat would listen he would learn something trom the Robinson views, Harrison cracked back: “It would be the first time I ever learned anything from the senator.” GRAFT IN POSTOFFICES Perhaps you can’t imagine writing letters to your family on pieces of board and mailing them. But you might if you were a fourth- class postmaster. The 33,000 fourth- class postmasters are paid partly on the basis of the number of stamps they cancel. Compensation begins at 160 per cent of the first $75 worth of stamps canceled. One mailed boards. Others have sent bricks, gravel, and oyster shells Dy parcel post, postal have discovered. Usually the packages were mailed to relatives. Some postmasters who operate stores make grocery deliveries by mail. Many of them ship eggs to the city. Postmaster General Farley’s inves- tigation was inspired by Chairman John J. Cochran of the house com- mittee on expenditures in executive departments.

Revv it ‘up for me!” For once Smash came through. ‘While Curt was reaching the cove, Smash cut the mooring ropes, clam- bered into the cabin, cranked the engine and pushed up the throttle, and had the motor settled into a ateady powerful rhythm. “Jump out!” Curt ordered him, splashing to a pontoon and clamber- ing up. “I've got to go after him alone.” Smash jumped into the hip-deep water, but turned, looked up. “Curt! What're you going to do, man? What the devil—?” He was suddenly bowled over, deluged and half drowned in a blind- ing smother of spume and chopped- up water, as Curt opened the motor to its thundering roar and plowed out of the cove to the open lake. For several minutes after Curt had left the cave mouth, Paul stayed there to watch. But he saw noth- ing, and decided that he was needed elsewhere. Before leaving, he called in Sikan- ni to the men inside the cave: “Things of infamy, you will come out when we say come out! If you are peaceful, you will see ‘the eun- shine again. If not, you can iy there till this mountain wears away!” He started down the slope to the cabin. On bis way past the gully, he stopped at a pool of water and washed the blood from his face. From the door of the cabin he saw Sonya lying bound and gagged on the bunk. She turned her head, saw him and tried to rise, but Kara- khan had bound her too securely. Paul ran across to her. As he bent over her and she looked up at him, the expression in her eyes was a thing he could never afterward for- get. When he cut her Idose she sprang up and hugged him, sobbing: “Pav! Paul! Oh, I knew—I heard the shoot- ing—I knew you had come! Where's Curt? Is he—is he safe?” In few words Paul explained. “Tenn-Og brought us north, we flew in last night, we've just whipped the Klosohees. Those planes, hear them—” the two ships out on the lake were jarring the cabin with their full-gunned roar—“that’s Curt going after Karakhan.” Let's go!” ‘They ran out of the cabin to the open landwash. Heavy with gas, Karakhan's plane had got off the water and climbed to a thousand feet, and was circling for altitude to clear the ranges. Curt was just jumping his ship into the air as they came out, Lighter and switter than the other plane, it climbed in a steep thunder- ing spiral, cutting down Karakhan’ lead so rapidly that in four minutes it was up level with the Speedair, In bewildered awe Paul and Sonya i EEst Tae ERE 3 alt out behind it, and within a thousand feet the whole mass was wrapped in flerce flames. But Paul and Sonya scarcely saw it. Their horrified eyes were on Curt’s broken plane as it twirled downward at a ter-itic speed, its Propeller gone, its engine roar changed to a high-pitched scream, At two thousand feet a small manikin object detached itself from the falling wreckage. For five or six: seconds it came down and down, turning slowly, head over feet, till! the demolished plane was a hundred! yards below it and wel one eide. Against the blue of the sky a tiny: bit of white flashed. A moment later; a long streamer of white shot out, While the two wrecked craft were; plummeting on down, to hit the lake: with a tremendous splash and sink) out of sight, the streamer caught! the air, flared out and burst into a! white sky-flower. “Oh-00!” broke from both of them| —a cry of unwordable thankfulness, releasing all their spellbound fears of those last terrible minutes, Even then they could not fully realize that! Curl had saved himself. It’ came| home to them only by degrees, as they watched the packchute stop) swinging and drift i their direction, i It was Sonya who first saw Curt tugging at the guide lines and under, stood the danger he was fighting) against. “Paul! Get a canoe! He'll come! down in the lake!’ We've got to get! out to him!” Paul sprang back the path to a! canoe near the cabin. By the time: he got it to water, he saw that the! craft would not be needed; the wind! was carrying the ‘chute south! against the mountain slope. Four, hundred feet high it passed ov their heads, and Curt looked down; and waved assurance to them. Fall-| ing slowly, he brushed low over a) clump of spruces and lodged in a: tall pine just above th: little knoll.! Paul hurried up to help his part-| ner, but Sonya coulé not move,' When she saw that Curt had landed) afe, she sank down on the) int trembling. A wingi of Karakhan’s plane was bobbing in, toward shore, but the ship itself had: disappeared, and Karakhan with if —down in the icy depths of the lake.) As her eyes followed that piece of} bobbing wreckage, she strove to} tea.ite that he was dead, dead—the| man who had cruell: sent her father! and Carl to their innocent deaths. Her long hunt was ended. : sees T RUSSIAN LAKE old John, came walking into the fireglow: of Curt’s camp, where Curt sat talk-; ing with Superintendent Marlin who! had flown up from Vancouver that afternoon. “I'm havin’ a leetle git-together, over at my tent dreckly, like we had. that time afore, Curt; an’ I figgered’ you men ‘ud like to j’in us.
