D, Munn, president of the national dairy coun- cil, suggests that the government might try a new wrinkle in dealing with this vexing issue. Pointing out that production and consumption in the nation now is so nearly balanced that an increased use of only one-half a glass of milk daily by every person in the country would create a shortage, he suggests that some attention be given to the Job of increasing consumption, par- ticularly in view of the increased pur- chasing power due to higher wages and more widespread employment. This view is borne out by nutrition experts who contend there is no over- Production of milk in the United States when viewed on the basis of need, that, on the contrary, we could increase production and still be short of enough milk if everyone, particu- larly every child, were to have the amounts indicated by a proper diet. Munn’s idea is that Secretary Wal- lace might well take advantage of a section of the law which permits him to reestablish prices through in- creased consumption as well as by reduced production. His idea is that this could be done by proper adver- tising coupled with a sound merchan- ising policy. Munn estimates there is a poten- tial consumptive market for dairy products in this country 50 per cent Greater than that now being culti- vated, since the average of consump- tion is less than one pint per person. If this is true, his suggestion deserves all the more consideration. A cam- paign to increase the use of milk, if successful, would benefit not only the farmer but the consumer, for it is the finest food in the world. This Will Be a Great Vacation Year Forecasts for the coming spring and summer are usually concerned with business conditions. But there's one field that has been overlooked in most of the prophecies so far, and we might as well get in on it right now. It looks as if it ought to be a And in that connection it’s worth Pointing out that the people of the ‘United States and Canada are ex- ceedingly lucky, when it comes to holidays. They have so many places to go, and the ways of getting are very pleasant.

So far as the average citizen is concerned, hope of disarmament faded long ago. A few super-optimists may cherish a dream of success but men with a practical turn of mind see nothing ahead but continued enmity, a renewed race to arm and, at the end, another war. Germany is demanding equality. France is pleading for security. Eng- land is hopelessly seeking to main- tain the status quo and Japan is try- ing to start a big blaze in Asia. Mus- solini is doing his share of sword rattling and Central Europe is a centuries past. War rages in South guay and Colombia and Chile are hone too friendly. On the whole, the picture is not too encouraging to lovers of peace. America would do well to attend strictly to its own business—and keep its powder dry for future contingen- cles. The ‘Revenooers’ Are Back Appointment of three North Da- kotans as revenue agents in the treasury department calls to mind again the fact that the government still is interested in the liquor traffic. For Uncle Sam it no longer is a moral issue, but the question of taxes continues to be an important one and his sleuths will now set about the job of collecting them on illicit liquor in much the same manner as of old. There was a time when we asso- ciated “the revenocers” with the mountains of Kentucky or Tennessee, slouch-hatted citizens in hickory Jeans and long-barreled rifles, but that time now has passed. Now the Job of the revenue agent is to track down the sleek and fat-jowled boot- legger who grew to affluence and Power during the palmy days of pro- hibition—and we have him in our midst. Evil of ‘Success’ Is it better to have a taste of suc- cess, and lose it, or never to have any of it at all? Carl Dane, the former Hollywood star, killed himself recently because the descent from stardom to poverty and obscurity was too much to bear. Dane rose to stardom after a di- rector spotted him while he was fix- ing an automobile. He had been happy in obscurity; but after he had had & taste of being rich and famous, re- turning to that old obscurity was: something too bitter for him to en- dure. . Would the man have been happier if the director had never seen him— if he had been allowed to live out his life quietly, never getting into the Umelight or knowing the thrill of “big money”? When the director saw him, Dane doubtless thought he had had a lucky break. As it turned out, it seems to have been the worst thing that could have happened. For Health and Happiness City dwellers are bound to take a Good deal of interest in that recent decision of the U. 8. circuit court of appeals in Chicago, in which it was ordered that the top 12 floors of a 20-story apaftment building be re- moved s0 neighboring residents can have a little sunlight and fresh air. “In the fight for better living con- ditions in large cities,” says the court’s decision, “in the contest for more light and air, more health and comfort—the scales are not well bal- anced if dividends to the individual outweigh health and happiness to the community.” Here's a point that often got lost in the shuffle, during the skyscraper Duilding boom of the '20s. The de- cision may have a marked effect on the future course of building in our large cities.

Address QUIET RESTFUL SLEEP Careful scientific observation of the sleep pattern of children has shown that the normal child changes posi- tion many times in a night. Graphic records of 78,624 hours of sleep made by Dr. Glenville Giddings of Atlanta gave as the longest period any per- son slept without any body movement. fone hour and forty-seven minutes. An ingenious machine was used for Tecording movements. At the end of the night's observation the active minutes (every minute in which there has been any body movement record- ed) are counted up and the total number of active minutes constitute the sleep pattern. The children were from 9 to 14 years of age. The most active boy showed an average of 110 active minutes in a night of nine hours sleep. The quiet- est sleeper had an average of only 53 active minutes nightly. Girls proved sounder sleepers than boys; they not only get to sleep more quickly but sleep more quietly all night. After getting a few nights records the sleep pattern of the individual may be accurately rated. A child who is a “quiet sleeper” remains a Dr. William Brady, “quiet sleeper,” and one who is a “testless sleeper” will remain restless from month to month and year to year. Dr, Giddings made some interesting tests of popular aids to sleep. In a series of normal sleepers he gave 6 ounces (moderate glassful) of cold water to the child on retiring; the child went to bed at 8:30 and lights were put out. This was repeated five nights. Then warm water was given in the same way for five nights. Neither appeared to have any influ- ence on the child’s sleep. A similar experiment was done with 6 ounces of warm milk. This seemed to produce quiet sleep. A @ small containing amount of caffeine apparently had no disturbing effect on the sleep of nor- mal children, This last observation prompts me to acknowledge that my former teach- aa RED ¥ gel Bangs pale E I in care of this newspaper. for they are not only very nourishing but economical, Caught in the Pool to know wchindatipesodl try to make Hol- @ chance of catching any commun- icable disease other patrons of the pool may have.
