Question of Policy Two widely separated incidents re-| cently indicate the value of paying public servants good wages and for-| bidding them from having other paid ‘occupations, Down in Washington Ernest W./ Smoot, 29-year-old son of Utah's re-|j— cent great senator, admitted to the Senate airmail investigating commit- tee that he received $19,750 in fees during 1929 while serving as clerk of the Senate Finance Committee of which his father was chairman. | The young man may have been which we got ourselves. To work together to improve what j We have, to find some way of work- jing and living together which will be the best thing for the greatest num- ber of people, and at the same time developing all this within the frame- work of our existing institutions— here is a cause worth all our brains and our energy. | If we try it whole-heartedly, and fail, then—and not before then—we can start worrying about the |isms. A Step Toward Peace Passage by the senate of 'the bill which would give the president power jto declare an embargo on the ship- |ment of arms from the United States |to warring nations leads one to won- \aer just what world history might jhave been like if such a law had been in force back in 1914. | It goes without saying that the story of the World war would have been vastly different if no munitions of war had been shipped overseas by ; American manufacturers. One is justified in feeling that the United States even might have been able to keep out of the conflict altogether, And that gives a notion of the po- tential value of this law. The way to stay out of a war, evidently, is to have nothing whatever to do with it. From being involved commercially to being involved with fleets and armies is not a very long step.

Prof. John J. Mahoney of Boston university hit the nail right on the head in an address the other day be- for the National Education Associa- tion in Cleveland. “I want to insist,” he sald, “that the way toward a better social order is @ road toward a better democracy. Democracy is peculiarly the American way of life, and has been ever since the beginning. We don’t need to chase after any new isms. Let’s im- prove what we already have.” What, after all, ts a better social order?

We hope that Mr. Roosevelt will see fit to apologize to the press of the na- tion for this gross insult.

But when the President of the United States—the executive head not of any party or section but of the whole nation—joins in such at- tacks, the situation is far different. It is so different that the whole HYPOPITUITARY OBESITY Woman had a waist measure of 272 inches and hip measure of 45 inches. Above the waist she was not at all fat. Below the waist she was big enough for two women of her size. Piano legs. A great girdle of fat around the loins, hips and hypogastrium. Fat pads above the knees on the inside of the thighs. Aside from fat pads on the upper arms she was not obese north of the equator. All this had overtaken her in the Past two years. She was 38 years old. Other signs or symptoms the doctor noted in her case, but which need not concern us here, confirmed his opinion that her pituitary gland func- tion was deficient. In such circum- largely confined to the southern hem- isphere. In this particular case a month's treatment with the proper ductless gland substance or hormone brought about a remarkable change. The woman lost only 2% pounds weight but she had to have skirts re- duced around the hips three times. The mental sluggishness had passed and she was now bright and alert. The haggard, almost emaciated appear- ance of her face and neck had im- proved. Apparently there had been a redistribution, rather than a reduc- tion, of fat. It is not always necessary for one with this hypopituitary type of obes- ity to receive glandular treatment. A carefully adjusted dietary regimen, to- gether with a moderate course of ex- ercise, has proved entirely adequate in many cases. Address Dr. William Brady, in care of this newspaper. loving them.

In this column recently we suggest- ed that a garage worker take half a) teaspoonful of sodium hyposulphite every alternate evening as a remedy) for the mild carbon monoxide poison- ing to which his work exposes him. French physicians have highly extoll- ed this remedy for the after-effects of monoxide gassing and for the ef- fects of mild chronic monoxide poi- soning. Now a distinguished author-| ity in this country, Prof. Yandell Henderson, of Yale, says that this treatment would be of no avail what- ever. Professor Henderson adds that the proper prophylaxis against such monoxide poisoning is that the gar- age should be supplied with flexible metal hose to be placed over the ex- haust vent and connected with a suc- tion apparatus discharging out of doors. For treatment fresh air, or in extreme cases inhalation of carbon Hypopituitary individuals (men or women) usually have a high sugar tolerance—that is, they can eat @ greater quantity of-starches or sugars. than normal individuals can, without excreting sugar thru the kidneys. Moreover they are not so strong 85) normal individuals, and they usually have a great fondness for starches or sugars in one form or another—any- thing from potatoes to bon-bons— probably because such food is quickly | absorbed and gives energy immediate- ly. So we must be patient with these hypopituitary folk. They are miser- able without their carbohydrates. In many instances they suffer genuine distress and even serious collapse if they go too many hours without some carbohydrate food. Probably due to their faulty ductless gland function they have hypoglycemia (too little sugar in the blood) and they feel “right” only when they partake of some food which will temporarily bring the blood sugar up to the nora mal level. However, @ high protein, high vita- min, high mineral salt diet not only: reduces but, makes these hypopitui- tarians feel satisfied and “right” even without their accustomed gorges.
