Folks Are More Hopeful A drop in the suicide rate—the {first since 1925—was one feature of the health record of 1933 among the ‘millions of industrial policyholders of & leading life insurance company, ac- ‘cording to current records. Although the rising mortality from @uicide extended throughout the very height of the country's prosperity, as ‘well as during most of the depres- sion, it is significant that the change ‘came at the very time when definite improvement in economic conditions ‘became evident. At the end of the year it was found that the suicide death rate has declined 6.5 per cent eince 1932, although at the end of the first quarter of 1933 it was still 10 per cent higher than for the like part of the preceding year, The homicide death rate has shown mo major change over a long period of years but deaths from accidents’ foreased from 548 per 100,000 in 1932 to 55.6 in 1933. The whole of the increase arose from two items, namely, automobile accidents, the death rate from which increased from 12.0 to 12.8, and accidental falls, with @n increase from 102 to 104. The rise in automobile fatalities is un- doubtedly related to improving eco- nomic conditions, and the resulting increase in automotive traffic, both commercial and recreational, where- by more opportunities for accidents were reflected in a larger number of automobile fatalities. ' \ | It is gratifying, however, to find that the automobile hazard is dimin- ishing as a menace to child life. While data for 1933 are not yet avail- able, it is significant that in 1932 there was a pronounced decrease in deaths of children due to this type of accident. For five successive years, more and more deaths have been ascribed to} falls, and the 1933 mortality rate for this type of accident was the highest ‘Whether the increase ‘was due to occupational accidents or to those occurring at home, cannot Fatal| accidents in the home have shown a tendency during recent years to de- cline among children and to increase ‘among adults, and this is true, in Particular, of accidental falls.

French Suspicious of Govern- ment An American who observes recent events in France is likely to come to the conclusion that the French Bre a most excitable and efferves- cent race. A political swindle which cost the french some 250,000,000 francs is un-| with, The government falls, prominent states- men devoutly refuse to accept the royalists smash cafe ‘windows and throw chairs at police- men, and Paris indulges in a long fweek-end of the most hectic kind of overed—and what happens? premiership, rioting. In this country, where financial thimble-rigging conducted at the public's expense is a more common phenomenon, it is a little bit hard to see just why the French are 80 excited. ‘What have they got to kick about, fnyway? asks the average American. ‘They lost 250,000,000 francs in al or swindle? Well, that comes to about $12,500,000 at par. Suppose they had had an Insull to’ build up utilities investment com- panies for them; or suppose that] ‘The significance of the new mone- some foreign nation had borrowed sjtary law and the president's latest matter of $4,000,000,000 from them and refused to pay. down Paris and throw the Arc ‘Triomphe into the Seine? All of which is apt to lead de the gverage American to suspect that the are French don’t know when they ‘swell off. The answer, of course, is that the Gtavisky swindle is more than just fin their organization of society. thing that is bothering them. {Frenchman suspects that there something radically wrong with his , He doesn't > mow just what it is, and be doesn't ‘form of government. know just what ought to be done; about it, but he has an uneasy hunch | that things aren’t just right—and an affair like this swindle simply con- firms that hunch, 80 he boots out his government, ‘and starts rioting, and chuckles glee- fully while the royalists assault the gendarmes. And it makes an interesting and instructive contrast with the situa- tion in America. Financial losses suffered by Ameri- can investors make the Stavisky loss look unimportant; yet they have ‘caused no riots, no cabinet resigna- tions, no throwing of restaurant chairs at innocent cops. Why? Because we have a confid- ence in our form of government, our organization of society, which the French lack. Financially, we have lost far more than the French; actually, we have lost far less, We still have an un- shaken faith in ourselves. Regulation Needed Congress is expected to act soon on a report from Secretary of Commerce Daniel Roper discussing the various proposals for regulation of stock exchanges. Observers at Washington predict that some kind of legislation regulating the activities of these money markets will be passed at this session. ' ‘The ordinary citizen probably has only the haziest notion about the form that such legislation should take, operations of the securities| markets being more or less of a) mystery to all but the initiated. But it doubtless is equally true that} the ordinary citizen feels quite} strongly that regulation of one va- riety or another is needed badly. There have been too many revela- tions of the tricks frenzied finance} pulled in the last dozen years to per- mit the man in #he street to feel that the speculators can be expected to regulate themselves. It is not surprising that Congress is preparing to insist on a new deal. Untamed Icefields Admiral Byrd’s recent difficulties with the disintegrating ice shelves at his projected landing spot in Antarc- tica’s famous Bay of Whales em- phasizes one of the peculiar hazards | which that spot presents to explorers. | That hazard arises from the fact} that no ship actually can get very close to the Antarctic continent itself | in that particular region. A ship| jcannot be moored in an actual har-| bor; @ base camp cannot be estab- lished on terra firma. | The mainland must be approached | across this vast ice barrier, and while | the ice ordinarily is as stable as solid rock it nevertheless is subject to all anywhere else might display. rate organization of up-to-date ex- peditions, 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, A Better Dollar (New York World-Telegram) ‘The increased confidence here and abroad which seems to have resulted from dollar devaluation is under- standable. For several months there was com- plete uncertainty as to the fate of the dollar. We had departed from gold, and no one knew where we were go- ing. As a result we were pretty much at the mercy of speculators, foreign and domestic. Indeed, al- most every business transaction par- took of the nature of speculation be- cause of the instability of the medi- um of exchange. Now we have a modernized gold bullion base and have stabilized within a ten-point range, between 50 and 60 cents of the old gold dollar— with the figure of 59.06 cents to start Of course, that does not satisfy those who want absolute and immed- jate stabilization at a fixed point, never to change, world without end. But the realists understand that final stabilization is impossible until we are more certain of the price level at home and the value of foreign money.

After that no cod liver oil is necessary, for the old- er baby should get his vitamins from milk, eggs, butter, etc. Only when the doctor prescribes it for some par- ticular condition should cod liver oil or any substitute for it be given to children over a year of age.’ ‘When it comes to procuring the cod liver oil, I should prefer plain crude cod liver oil of no particular brand, but a grade a reliable druggist sells in bulk. This is available at reason- able cost and I believe it is the best. I do not recommend any substitute for plain cod liver oil. In some in- stances where an older child has great repugnance for the plain oil, the child will readily take a mixture of cod liver oil and malt syrup, so-called ex- tract of malt, about equal parts.

States Get ‘No Favors on Imported Liquor... Kidnap Bill Author Is Ex-Pedagog. By RODNEY DUTCHER (Tribune Washington Correspondent) Washington, Jan. 6—The NRA fan ‘mail is arriving in bulging bags. But recovery officials aren't as Pleased as you might suppose. The Posies are being tosséd, not at NRA, but at the civil works program, to which business men attribute most of the recent improvement. CWA is by all odds the most pop- ular phase of the recovery program and it’s the one Roosevelt proposes to eliminate by May 1. Uncurtailed, it also might be the most dangerous phase, since its cost at the present rate would be $3,000,- 000,000 a year. No one —possibly excepting Roose- velt—expects CWA to be entirely abandoned this spring. But it will operate on a greatly reduced basis rather than the present schedule of employing 4,000,000 persons at an av- erage of $14.30 a week. The extent will depend on the de- gtee to which Roosevelt's hopes of te- employing 4,000,000 persons elsewhere are realized. Money for the extension is in sight. Besides the $350,000,000 asked for finishing off the official program, 9600,000,000 has been asked for gen- eral relief. For the next fiscal year Roosevelt asks $2,000,000,000 of emerg- ency money not yet allocated. ‘Those who have talked with him say he thinks relief requirements from that sum may run anywhere from 300 to 800 millions and that he plans about 600 millions for public works. ‘Thus there will be nearly two bil- Hons from which new CWA funds) might be, obtained.
