Better than Famine If this summer hasn't given you enough things to worry about, you can always work up a fever over the wholesale way in which Uncle Sam has been adding his nephews and nieces to the federal payroll lately. Some sort of all-time high was reached this month when it was dis- closed that more than 7,000,000 adult Americans are getting federal checks) nize more fully its responsibilities to regularly. This includes practically everybody —tegular government employes, mem- bers of the army and navy, people getting pensions and veterans’ com- pensation funds, those hired for pub-| lic works projects and recipients of direct relief. It breaks down about like this, ac- cording to a recent tabulation: Some 3,600,000 people are getting emergency relief in the shape of food, money, and so on. Road work and other emergency jobs account for 970,000 more. Some 600,000 are em- ployed on other public works projects. There are 18,000 people drawing pensions of one kind or another. There are 911,000 federal employes, 280,000 in the CCC camps and just less than 260,000 in army, navy, and marine corps. Add them all together and you get 8 lot of people—so many that it is no wonder some people are getting pret- ty worried about it all. But the important thing in this situation is not the number of peo- ple who are on the government pay- roll so much as it is the question,) What would happen to them if they were off of it? It isn't pleasant to picture the plight of the 3,600,000 on direct re- lief, if all government funds should be cut off suddenly. The government is caring for them only because no| other agency can do so. It may be a bad thing to have the government Supporting that many people; it would be a good deal worse to have them all starving. ‘You can say much the same thing of the people who are at work on public works jobs, of those who are getting emergency employment relief, and of the lads in the CCC. The growth of the federal payroll may be a dismaying phenomenon, but it has meant the difference between hope and disaster to them. It is, after all, pretty silly to com- plain abotu the way in which Uncle Sam is supporting his citizens, unless you can also show some other way in which those whom he is supporting sould be cared for. Money Well Invested Federal funds are being spent so lavishly these days that an allotment of $25,000 hardly seems worth no- ticing. Nevertheless, the expenditure of that sum at the Michigan College of Mines, at Houghton, Mich., may eventually be worth untold millions to middle western industry. The college is using the money to undertake research in methods of us- ing low-grade iron ores. The rich Michigan iron mines, according to college experts, will be practically depleted within 20 years, But even then they will contain billions upon billions of tons of low- grade ore, which, under present methods of exploitation, cannot be mined profitably. ‘The Michigan experts hope to find @ way in which this enormous store vf ore will become commercially avail- able. If they do, that $25,000 re- search fund will mean incalculable dle west. A Much-Needed Purge One of the next steps in the fed- eral government’s war against gang- sters, according to dispatches from Washington, will be a drive on crook- ed lawyers. Department of Justice officials sre about to start a sharp 00| Position that Japan will insist on full infringe on that right. But the law- yer who becomes a regular ally of the gangster is a menace to the public, and a campaign that will put him out of business is very badly needed. Linked Hands in Pacific? European diplomats are hinting these days that if the 1935 naval conference fails there will develop a new, far-reaching “understanding” between the United States and Great Britain in the Pacific. It is reported that the two nations would discuss a joint naval defense plan, reaching from Alaska to Aus- tralia. Plans for conducting joint operations against a common foe would be devised; new British naval bases would be constructed in Aus- tralia, and would be available to American ships in case of need. All this, of course, is on the sup- naval equality and will thereby preci- Pitate a naval construction race. It goes without saying that there is not the slightest confirmation of the gos- sip at either Washington or London. The development might be a logical one, at that. The nations do have common interests in the Pacific. It would hardly be surprising if they sought to find a common means of defending them. Every Day Brains Dr. Karl G. Miller, University of Pennsylvania psychologist, recently gave public utterance to a thought that is not new but surprisingly novel in expression. Many have thought it without daring to express it. AS expressed by Doctor Miller it is: “The American college must recog- the students whose interests are not Primarily intellectual as well as to the prospective scholar. From my contact with the parents of boys seeking admission to the university I feel that the proud father wants his son to go through a ripening process, to make many contacts, to become interested in many things, to have a good deal of fun and to do reason- ably well in his studies. “Unless I am mistaken, the incul- cation of true scholarship, the love of learning, the inspiration for re- search—these do not appear in the definition of college education as it exists in the minds of prospective students and their parents.” Had the professor's candor gone a little bit farther he might have said By William Signed letters pertaining self-addressed envelope is enclosed.

Wisconsin Politics (Fargo Forum) Whether the president so intended it or not, the fact that he took occa- sion in his Green Bay speech to thank both Senators La Follette and Duffy, “old friends of mine,” for the excel- lent cooperation they had helped to maintain between the executive and about it—that’s my opinion. The doctor is quite right about the ridiculous pathological report. That racket is @ favorite one of the old school of health administration. Tt can do no harm to mention a few facts—and to invite any one who can to refute them. First, no one knows the cause of rabies in animals. legislative branches of the govern-| Second, no one knows whether ra- ment, and the further fact that he|bies ever occurs in man. remarked also that he was “glad to be in a state from which I have drawn in setting up the permanent and temporary agencies of govern- ment,” is being interpreted to mean that Mr. Roosevelt wants Mr. La Fol- lette to win out in the fall election. And more color is added to this when it is recalled that Mr. Farley @ short while ago said that he was Jeaving the Wisconsin situation to the big boss. True, Mr. Roosevelt included Mr. Duffy, a Democrat, in his ree marks, but the political dopesters point | tain out that only one of them, Mr. La Fol- lette, is a candidate this year. Mr. Duffy, being elected in 1932, is not in the running now. But there are five Democrats contending for the nomi- nation in the Democratic primary campaign. So it is said by some that Mr. Roosevelt's statement was clearly directed as a boost for La Follette Stock alone. It is being remembered that his ref- erence at Green Bay relative to hav- ing drawn much of his inspiration from Wisconsin “for the permanent and temporary agencies of the gov- ernment” sounds very similar to the one made in Wisconsin in the cam- Paign of 1932 when he said that no other state in the Union had so clearly demonstrated “the practical utility of liberal principles.” This was held to be great praise for the family who had dominated Wisconsin politics for some thirty years—and it was accepted as such by the La Follette brothers. Shortly thereafter, Senator Bob came out with an endorsement of Mr. Roo- sevelt’s candidacy.

Or if only one pathologist squints through the he or she may be honestly unable to decide whether the cells of tissue under ex- amination are the McCoy or whether they are just red corpuscles gone bad. People are so careless about packing the head in ice or.other preserva- tive while it is on its way to the laboratory. I now offer the only advice my con- science will permit. The safe course whenever the fear or suspicion of rabies arises in any circumstance is this. Have the scratch or bite im- mediately treated by physician. If no physician available, then immed- fately apply tincture of iodin, until you can have the proper surgical treatment. Capture and confine the animal under the daily observation of as veterinary physician for two weeks. If in that time the vet. ob- serves no symptoms, forget and for- give. If the vet is in doubt, or if he fears the animal has rabies, then your family physician can begin the Pasteur treatment, which requires at least 14, and better, so they NOW think, 28 daily injections of virus. No need to go away from home or make a great to-do about it. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Disinfectant for Cesspool What chemical is best to destroy matter in cesspools or outdoor toilets? (QM. McK.) lime comes in heavy paper sacks. Convenient and effective way to use it is by, preparing milk of lime— that is, dissolve or mix a pound or two of the fresh lime with a gallon of water.
