Gerard, former ambassador to Ger-| many, outlined the situation accur- ately as follows: “American investors are the cornerstone, the foundation and the bedrock on which the indus- trial and economic life of the United States is built. Their se- curity holdings in most instances represent thrift, savings, hard work and full faith in the destiny of the United States. Yet they are the target for every political experiment in every state in the Union and in congress. They are not given the slightest consider- ation at any time. They are treated contemptuously. “Driving downtown I passed a ‘wagonload of live chickens, peer- ing out at the world from their coops and boxes. They reminded me of the members of the great middle class of our country, who have as much to do with their own economic and political for- tunes as those chickens on their way to execution.” Mr. Gerard estimates that the security holders of the country would control probably 25,000,000 or 30,000,000 votes if they were to take an interest in their own protection, and he asserts that the time has come when they must forever be branded as fools and weaklings if they do not or- ganize to consolidate their strength. Steps are being taken among the Aolders of utility stocks for just such an organization. Thousands of such stockholders have been asked to do- nate a dollar to support an organiza- tion which will see that the interests of security holders are not ignored) at Washington. Such a movement has been too long delayed. Then and Now! Of course when the Chamber of Commerce met at Washington re- cently, its hands were rather tied in the way of vigorous criticism of the New Deal. Not so many months ago| the Chamber issued a Macedonian cry for governmental help which is too fresh on the record. President Harriman of the Chamber publicly announced that he favored turning over the control of all business to President Roosevelt for a period of | two years. Of course Harriman re- flected only his own viewpoint, but when Hoover left the White House all business had the jitters and was willing to try anything. Of course, in the final analysis, much of the New Deal must be dis- carded 1s mere emergency measures in the near future, most of them are but feebly effective. Under the American scheme of things, business must be left to work out its own salvation. No brain trust or political party can reconstruct business, Bu- Teaucracy and autocracy cannot re- Place intelligent business manage- ment with a background of experi- ence and achievement. Mere formula cannot supplant the skill of private management. Government can aid business most by ‘a minimum of con- trol. Then, too, business, before it rises te former grades, must know that there will be no inflation or drastic tinkering with the gold standard. Un- certainties of federal administrative monetary policies are holding back general recovery.

The Lowly Horse Collar mating the extent of recovery in our northern neighbor, finds significance in statistics covering the sale of har- ness and horse collars. In 1931 a in the Dominion, whereas 1932 showed sales of 93,278. Sweatpad sales jumped from 70,000 to 152,000 and the production of double harness almost | trebled. The significance is seen in the fact |that, in order to work, horses must have collars, and when collar sales jump it follows that more horse work is being done. American statisticians are not 80 facile when dealing with so homely @ subject, but the apparent fact is that a similar trend is apparent in this country. Horses have been at & premium in this country for several is on the increase. Tractors doubtless are more effi- cient and enhance the value of hu- man labor, but they do not reproduce themselves and it requires cash to keep them in operation. With many idle men both on the farms and in the cities, human labor has become much cheaper and the result has been to return Old Dobbin to a field which he once dominated exclusively. Adding to this development has been the devising of hitches for teams of as many as 12 horses, thus enabling a farmer to get as much done with horsepower as with machine power. The manufacture of horse collars and harness again bids fair to be- come an important industry.

Now comes the Literary Digest with a new secret ballot. More than fifteen mil- lion voters will be asked what they think of Roosevelt's New Deal. Clearly the intent is to ascertain whether sentiment for Roosevelt is changing, for the Digest confines its popular referendum to two ques- tions: Do you approve on the whole the acts and policies of Roosevelt's first year? For whom did you vote in 1932? Of course many voters will not just mark their convictions on the dotted line. Many will write letters accom- Panying their ballots. Public senti- ment reflected in this manner will give a good insight into the popular view of the New Deal. Doubtless the Digest is embarking upon another mighty interesting Journalistic venture.

Scott (New York Times) When General Hugh L. Scott was appointed Superintendent of the Mil- itary Academy there was a single objection: his graduating number had been well down toward the bottom of the class of 1876. Judzing from his services to the army and the country in @ career of forty-three years, his standing should have been near the top. In his case, as in that of Grant, his rank as a student had no signifi- cance. But there was never a manlier cadet at West Pcint than young Scott, or one more devoted to duty or more faithful to the standards of an insti- tution that makes men as well as sol- diers. His physical courage was shown or. many occasions, The saving of his classmate King from drowning in the Hudson was so remarkable that it was recorded in the Adjutant General's office as “an act of heroism.” Lord Kitchener came to West Point during General Scott's superintendence and they were photographed side by side, two soldierly figures born to com- mand. There have been politicians in the United States Army, but Hugh L. Scott wag never of that type. He was always outspoken, fearless in his opin- ions and generous in his estimates of brother officers. Favoritism was for- eign to his nature. When chief of staff, he was asked by the secretary of war whom he would recommend to command an army to invade Mex- ico, “General Wood,” he replied, “is the ranking major general and the best we have.” General Scott was the greatest authority on the Indians of the plains, not only becouse he was an adept in their sign language but because his relations with them had been intimate and they trusted him. There is no doubt that he averted war with Mexico more than once by his influence over Obregon, Villa and other chiefs, with whom he dealt as man to man, gaining their confidence. The great disappointment of his life came when he was too old to take a field command in the World War. He was, nevertheless, an example of what # soldier should be when he cheerfully trained troops at Camp Dix. He gave the last years of his life to the State of New Jersey, working with vigor and enthusiasm as chairman of the High- way Commission.

Address Dr, William Brady, THE CRI COMPLETE IN ! TWENTY-FOUR VARIETIES You never know nor does your doc- tor what your putative “cold” is go- ing to be tomorrow. Just run your furtive eye over the following list of respiratory infections or definite ill- nesses which commonly begin with symptoms quite like the symptoms of ordinary coryza: Acute coryza (distemper, head “cold,” acute catarrh, acute rhinitis) Acute pharyngitis (sore throat) Follicular tonsilitis. Acute peritonsilitis (quinsy) Vincent's angina (trench mouth) Diphtheria Acute sinusitis. Scarlet fever (or scarletina) Measles (rubeola, morbilli) Acute laryngitis (hoarseness, loss of voice) Pleurisy Acute bronchitis (chest “cold”) Pneumonia (lung fever) Influenza (grip) (flu) Lethargic encephalitis (American “sleeping sickness”) Acute anterior poliomyelitis (infan- tile paralysis) Acute epidemic cerebro-spinal menin- gitis (spotted fever, brain fever) Croup Pertusis (whooping cough) German measles (rotheln) Chicken pox (varicella) Smallpox (variola) Pneumonic plague Tuberculosis (consumption, phthisis) ‘These are all recognized at present as respiratory infections, the germ or virus of the disease entering the body through the lining of nose or throat, and the infection spreading from one person to another in the secretions from nose and throat. In some of the illnesses named there is usually no marked coryza at onset—say in small- pox, though even chickenpox and smallpox are known to be respiratory infections and to spread just as does diphtheria or tuberculosis or ordinary coryza, and not from the skin rash, as a rule. From the list of possibilities in the putative “cold” you may judge for yourself how great @ risk you take when you chat with a careless per- son who purports to have a slight “cold.” On the other hand, if you're fair you may judge how great @ menace you are to your friends, fam- ily or associates or the innocent per- sons near you if you insist on keep- ing about as usual when you have the cri. You don’t know, nor does any one else, what the putative “cold” will prove to be. And unfortunately in most of the respiratory infections listed the period when the disease is most virulent, most likely to spread, is the stage of invasion—the very time when the average scoundrel or damn fool is trying to “break it up” with some nostrum or other, or try- ing to “fight it off” and keeping up and about, so that everyone who hap- pens to come within range has an ex- cellent chance to contract the illness, whatever it may be. ° Measles, for example, is most likely to spread among children in school or elsewhere in close contact in the three or four days of the stage of in- vasion, before any rash appears, when the child has only the symptoms of ® “feverish cold.” This is one, and & sufficient, reason why no child with @ putative “cold” should ever be al- lowed to remain in school.

Dille Co.) Cyanide I worked for six years as a nickel plater, and used a cyanide dip daily. If any of us had a cut or sore we would dip it into the cyanide jar (a strong solution of cyanide) to cleanse the wound. Never heard of any one being poisoned by the cyanide. I often read of cases of alleged cyanide Poisoning through a cut or from in- halation of the cyanide. (W. M.) Answer—I have no plausible ex- planation for the rarity of cyanide Poisoning among jewelers, platers and other workers who use cyanide for cleaning. Certainly a small quantity of potassium cyanide, or hydrocyanic (prussic) acid is extremely poisonous if absorbed into the system in any way, A Glandiose T have a wild theory that the duct- less glands have something to do with an individual’s immunity to cri.

THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE THURSDAY, MAY 10, 1934 (Tribune it) fashington, May 10—“Thank God,” State Department men were telling each other when the recent Japanese jitters were worse, “we've got Joe Grew over there, or we might be having a war.’ ‘What they meant was that the sort of dumb, preventable incident. which sometimes leads to conflict wouldn't happen as long as Joseph C. Grew was ambassador to Tokio, That's the one big world capital Roosevelt and Farley didn’t dare staff with politics or campaign contributions in mind. Welles didn’t do so well in Cuba, Grew hag been the prize apple in our di- plomatic barrel. He is a famous tiger hunter and a deaf man who learned how to read Ups. He raised a family of athletes and, while he was ambassador to Turkey, one of his daughters sur- prised everybody by swimming the length of the Bosphorus. Aristocratic son of @ Boston bank- ing family, Grew was graduated from Groton and Harvard and went big- game hunting through the Orient and East Indies. He came down of fever in India and the care a consul gave him then interested him in the| @ consular clerk at Cairo in 1904. Friends in Washington used their in- fluence to get him promoted and Theodore Roosevelt consented when he heard how Grew had crawled into & black cave to kill a tiger which lived there. So Grew became & “career man.” He is more than six feet tall, dark, with coal-black hair, mustached, slightly , & baseball fan, friendly, very efficient, pro-American, ‘eep |@nd impressive in his sincerity. Of course he couldn’t have become an ambassador if he had not been wealthy, BONUS CAMP STILL VACANT The Commi tention to John T. Flynn. Flynn is an investigator and writer who exposed the Wall Strect invest- pment trusts and other instances of skullduggery in high finance. Long before the Senate got around to Tea- pot Dome, he was the first to partially expose that scandal. JAPAN WILL PUSH ON Net result of that Japanese out- burst and Secretary Hull's firm reply is that this government knows just what it knew before: Japan will continue her penetration of China in a program of expansion which began when she went after Korea 30 years ago. Officials who have lived in the Orient many years explain Tokio's recent gesture simply. The Japanese are working on world opinion, just as on Chinese territory, by a process of attrition. ‘They realize this country has its own problems, that it won't go to war to protect China and that if they don’t work too fast we may get tired FLYNN RANKS HIGH AS PROBER The Senate committee appointed to investigate the munitions industry had a hard time picking a chief investiga- tor adequate for the job. One rea- son was that certain members didn’t want “another Pecora” who would overshadow their own efforts and crowd them from the limelight. That reason also explains why the ‘State Department's proposal of a brother of one of its officials—an academic gent who teaches at Prince- ton—at first found favor and had to be beaten down. Morris Ernst, New York lawyer, was consulted after that. Ernst could give consular service. Over family objections, he became; Then the committee turned its at-| (Copyright, 1934, NEA Service, Inc.) | all his time to the munitions job. of protesting.
