Offering Real Help Announcement by the federal land bank that 136 North Dakota farmers have filed applications for loans to ‘buy back their homes, lost on mort- gage foreclosure, aptly illustrates the difference between positive and nega- tive action. ‘This assistance which the federal government is giving to farmers is definite and constructive. It offers mew hope and new energy to a hard- ‘Pressed people. Contrasted with the benefits which the people have received from the moratorium proclamation of Gover- nor, William Langer, it emphasizes the difference between constructive faction and empty gestures. The moratorium merely preserves the farmers’ woes. The government, land policy offers a way of relieving them. ‘The contrast should be plain enough even for political purposes. How unnecessary the moratorium is, 1s proved by the records of the Jand bank with regard to foreclosures and evictions. Last year the president pledged his aid to farmers who were threatened with the tragedy of losing their prop- erties and the land banks were made the agencies for carrying out this promise. Since that time foreclosures have been halted in 2,400 cases, not by calling out the troops, of which the president has more than the governor, but by stepping in to ad- just the differences between mort- gagor and mortgagee. The records reveal only four fore- closures since that time in the sev- enth land bank district which com- prises the Dakotas, Minnesota, Wis- consin and part of Michigan. ‘Those four cases were what might be called “agreement” foreclosures, the mortgagees agreeing to a liberal extension of the period of redemption and otherwise expressing a desire to help the original owner get his prop- erty back. In one case, a Wisconsin farmer ‘wired the president on a Friday, ask- ing that court proceedings confirm- ing the foreclosure sale of his farm be stopped. The message was relayed to the St. Paul office and investiga- tion disclosed that the legal proceed- ings were scheduled for the following Monday. ‘The preliminary work was speeded ‘up and on Monday the land bank’ called the judge, in whose court the case was pending, by telephone, The Judge was on the bench but he ad- dJourned court long enough to answer his phone and when he returned to the bench he announced the case was off. He had been informed on the phone that a loan had been granted. ‘Thus the farmer walked out of the courtroom still in possession of his farm. ‘When the merits of the moratorium Bre discussed, as they will be exten- sively in the coming political cam- paign, it does no harm to consider a. few facts, Faith and Vision ‘The nearly 5,000 persons who vis- ited the Kelly-How-Thomson com- te REE & : i 2 Hy | ie He le Ff ef E : 22 8 F FI 4 natural desires of many would-be parents. If the trend disclosed by the last census is continued for only a few more years, one of the major worries of the nation will be its declining birth rate. From a personal problem, the matter will become one of na- tional concern, for more things de- of the population than appears at first glance. It looks very much as though the popular opinion will have to return to old-time standards or that means must be found to guarantee sufficient security to fathers and mothers so they will be willing to take the risk jof parenthood. Barring this we are due for @ national crisis such as old- fashioned parents could not even imagine. Sign of Recovery It is worth remembering that not all the vast amount of money spent by the federal government in the last. year is going to prove a complete loss, Some of it is coming back; lately, indeed, it has been coming back at a pretty lively rate. ‘Thus Harvey Couch, of the board of directors of the Reconstruction Finance Corporation, reveals that the RFC now is collecting fully $1,000,000 a day from its borrowers. The corpo- ration has lent something more than three billions in its career; more than 8 third of that already has been paid back. Not only does this indicate that a severe strain on the treasury is being lessened; it is an excellent sign of reviving business. And when Mr. Couch adds that applications for| loans totaling $333,000,000 recently have been canceled, it becomes ap- Parent that prosperity, in truth, is on the way back at a fairly rapid gait.

Spearing the Kingfish (New York Times) For some years Mayor Walmsley of ‘New Orleans and Huey Long were Political partners. The mayor's or- ganization of patriots, the Choctaw club, stood by Huey in the city. Last December the two statesmen had a falling out. The senator said he wouldn't support the mayor for re- election if he ran on the same ticket with District Attorney Stanley. The thought of such an association “al- most turned” Mr. Long’s delicate stomach, The mayor, who had fought Long as governor till a treaty was arranged between the two powers, tore up the treaty. In the city elec- tion on Tuesday Walmsley beat Long's man by some 15,000 votes, but didn’t get a majority. The Independent nominee got 26,000 votes. Huey’s man heroically refused the “run off” pri- mary to which he was legally entitled. Every nominee on Long's ticket was defeated. Huey says that the Power Trust spent a million to crush the people's champion. He is well crushed. The country have been howl- parishes ing for the scalp of the sometime ally of the Choctaws. Now New Orleans, which has the honor of being his home town, hits him with that feroc- ity which he has so strange a genius pend upon the steady replenishment | (itn self-addressed envelope is enclosed. BRONCHO-PNEUMONIA AND PLEURO-PNEUMONIA Formerly doctors made quite a point of distinguishing broncho-pneumonia from pleuro-pneumonia. Just why, I have never learned. Today we are not 80 concerned about such refinement of diagnosis. Too, I fancy, the two forms of pneumonia have lost their characteristics and we do not now see the typical cases the medical fore- fathers described. Broncho-pneumonia, so-called, was otherwise known as capillary bronchi- tis, and still farther back it was “suf- tocative catarr! Sometimes now it is called lobular pneumonia to in- dicate that it consists of inflamma- tion of many scattered lobules throughout both lungs, instead of massive inflammation of one or more lobes of a lung, as in pleuro-pneu- monia. Pleuro-pneumonia was “lung fever” away back when “suffocative catarrh” carried off aged feeble folk and children who were getting over Bbooping-comets measles and the like, All pneumonia, so far as we know, is directly due to one or another strain of Pneumococcus, Bacteriologists say that a non-virulent or harmless strain of Pneumococcus is found in most mouths, where it seems to be @ nat- ural inhabitant. Some hali-baked health authorities and dilettant doctors air their com- Placency by seizing on this fact to bolster up the anile theory that when one gets one’s feet wet or sits in a draft or something, one's “resistance” —whatever that may be—is lowered, ard then the pneumococci “lurking” in the mouth, jump in and lay the host low with pneumonia. It is just as simple as you are if you swallow the hackneyed line. Scientifically, however, no one has ever found any reason to infer that any such change in the character of the Pneumococci in the saliva occurs. For that matter—and I challenge any one to cite scientific evidence to refute this assertion—nobody has shown experimentally that moderate everyday exposure to cold, drafts, wet fect, sudden changes of temperature and the like has any appreciable in- fluence on an individual’s susceptibil- ity to or his immunity from any known illness, Regardless of the type of pneumonia —indeed, it is difficult in most cases today to classify—there is a growing interest on the part of physicians in the functional or physiological aspect of the disease, the role played by atelectasis, that is, collapse of por- tions of lung. This is certainly an im- pertant factor if not the cause of the Pneumonia that often occurs after anesthesia. There is at least some Teason to conjecture about this.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS No Cures 1 am curious to know what your cure for constipation is. (W. 8.) Answer—I have no cure for con- stipation—or anything else. If you have the constipation habit say 80, inclose 10 cents (coin only) and a stamped envelope bearing your ad- dress. Instructions for breaking the habit will be sent you. Carbolic Acid What effect would three or four tablespoonfuls of the 5 per cent solu- tion of carbolic acid have if taken in- ternally? What would counteract it? (E. B.) Answer—Epsom salts, Glauber's salts (sodium sulphate), lime water, are all good antidotes. The salts should be given in small doses three times a day for several days to help eliminate the poison from thé system. The quantity of pure phenol (car- bolic) in three or four tablespoonfuls of the 5 per cent (1 to 20) solution, which druggists are permitted to sell without prescription, might prove fatal, but diluted with water its effect is less destructive. The gravest ef- tect would be the damage to the kid- neys, The victim of such poisoning needs close medical care for several weeks. (Copyright, 1934, John F. Dille Co.)
