Man of Action ‘The renovation of the St. Paul po- lice department, for which the Daily | News campaigned so long and lustily,| produced its first “front page” results last week in the successful trapping | of one of the last of the Dillinger mobsters. Citizens of that gangster-infested | city read of how its new chief of po-| lice, Frank Cullen, with the aid of two trusted subordinates, sprung the| trap that caught Homer Van Meter. Of the Dillinger mob now only George “Baby Face” Nelson is left.! He is sought in St. Paul also. Whether | there or elsewhere, justice eventually | will catch up with him, too, and write “finis’ to the greatest man- hunt in history. If Nelson is in St. Paul, or returns there at some future date, it is al-| most certain that Cullen and his) aides will run him down. A veteran! of the old school, Cullen is a man| of action and few words. “Flat feet” | who rise from the ranks usually be-/| come “broad bottoms,” content to sit in swivel chairs and chew cigars mightily, when promotion such as Cullen's comés their way. But, unlike so many of his contem- | Poraries in the larger cities of the} 1.20 6.00 wl major objects of our program.” up, not an uncommon occurence, the | government's aim in discouraging | hitch-hiking is obvious. Contagious diseases may be spread, social unrest is encouraged, the economic structure is upset, and, Mr. Smith adds, “the | Person who stays put is more likely to get a job than the migrant whom | no one knows or trusts.” Exports Picking Up In spite of tariff barriers and other | obstacles, America’s export trade | seems to be slowly regaining its | health. Or, if that is too optimistic | a statement, it is at least feeling | better than it was a little while ago. | Official figures compiled in Wash- ~| ington show that during the first six months of 1934 the United States ex- ported just a little more than a bil- lion dollars’ worth of goods—a higher rate than that shown by either 1933 or 1932. If things keep on at this rate, ex- ports for the year will run above the $2,000,000.000 mark, which they haven't touched since 1931. Lest we grow too jubilant, it might be well to point out that we are still far below the 1929 high-water mark, when we exported goods worth more than $5,000,000,000. But we at least seem to be on the way up. Consumer as Picket It is interesting to note that a New York supreme court judge has up- held the right of the citizen to picket a business house in his capacity as consumer. A Bronx neighborhood organization felt that prices charged for bread were too high. So they began to picket stores and bakeries, demand- ing price reductions. The bakers ask- ed a restraining order to make them stop, and the court refused to grant it. The right to picket is usually as- sociated with labor disputes. Here it enters a new ficld, and the field is one in which it might prove use- ful. If a man can picket because he feels that he is underpaid, he can also do it if he fecls that he is being over- charged.

Though he rose| from the ranks, he has none of the! characteristics of the typical “flat foot.” St. Paul, after being the head- quarters for the most dangerous crim- inals in the nation for years, must feel relieved, as would many another city, to have a man of action rathei than a figurehead for its chief of police, torists by painting white crosses on the highways at spots where acci- dents have occurred. This is similar to the stunt Ohio once tried—puiting up a wooden cross by the roadside at the scene of every | traffic fatality. It was a sound and | logical scheme, although for some reason Ohio has since given it up.

Papke as beer com-| missioner. | For the approximately nine months | from October 23, 1933, to July 21,| 1934, collections of the beer depart- ment were $318,405.48 and expendi- | tures $85,914.90, or approximately 27 per cent—this in face of the fact that the business of the beer department 4s principally routine bookkeeping. ‘The state can charge the differ- ence between the operating costs of these two organizations to heavy mark-up on political machinery. One of Papke's first moves upon his tak- ing office as beer commissioner was to slash $4,449.16 from the monthly Payroll of the department. Salaries which totalled $5,131.66 per month now have been reduced to $682.50 and if the new commissioner makes no other savings in operating costs he will have cut the overhead fn half, Finley and the communities sur- rounding have a new lake of which they may be justly proud. It is Lynch lake, situated a few miles south of town, Constructed under the direction of the national CWA, Lynch lake has reached proportions greater than those anticipated. It has reached a depth of more than 20 feet at the head of the dam, and it stretches over a sizeable area. Bathing at Lynch lake is the finest that can be found in this territory. Fed by numerous cool, sparkling springs, the water is always fresh and there is never the customary odor that is common where a body of wa- ter is found. Several varieties of fish have been planted in the water, and experts contend that fish will excel in that favorable environment. A drive is underway, sponsored by the local Legionnaires to provide the needed facilities that will add to the comfort of bathers. A new bafh house was acquired last week, as well as light posts and the necessary wire. An electric light plant will be in- stalled on the grounds in the near fu- ture, Liberal layers of gravel have been spread on the east shores of the lake, near the head of the dam, and when water reaches the height it will re- main at under natural conditions, there will be as a consequence, excep- tional beaches. ity or to reduce the surplus fat it is necessary to reverse the process. In most cases this is not only pos- sible but, by the application of re-| cent knowledge of nutrition, easy. We now know the secret of the physiol- ogical prevention and cure of obesity. I say it is easy to reduce over-/ weight. By thet I mean that the reduction, regeneration, rejuvena- | tion, recovery of youthful resiliency | and more vigorous health—for it is all one—may be achieved without us- | ing any drug, glandular product, purgative, hot bath, sweat bath, mas- Sage, exercise or other measure aside from ordinary normal daily living. Why are overweight individuals overweight? Obviously because they consume more nutriment than their metabolism can handle. But why do they eat more’ than they need to maintain correct weight and provide the energy for their daily activities? Because they crave food, of course. Often they consume astonishing quan- tities of carbohydrate food particular- ly (starches, sweets) yet do not feel entirely satisfied and could pitch right in soon after the gorge and eat a lot more of the same highly nour- ishing potato, bread. cake, candy, Sweetened beverage. etc. Now why doesn’t this good food satisfy the craving or hunger of these overweight individuals? The answer is so simple that I’m ashamed it has taken us so long to discover it. It is this: Most of the food we eat is deficient in mineral elements and in vitamins. Modern methods of puri- fying, refining, preserving, storing, preparing or cooking food for the table remove or destroy most of the minerals and vitamins that are pres- ent in natural foods. For instance the refining of sugar, the milling of wheat, the pasteurizing of milk, the home canning of fruit, the boiling of meats and vegetables and throwing away the water which has dissolved out the natural mineral salts. These are only a few of the scores of proc- esses which devitalize food. The normal desire for food, ap- petite, hunger, craving or demand has been attributed heretofore to the need of the body cells for fuel with which to produce the energy required to maintain the bodily functions and do the work of the muscles, From that point of view a so-called bal- anced ration has been assumed to consist of certain daily quantities of the three fuel food materials, name- ly, protein, fat and carbohydrate. Theoretically, according to that con- ception, a “maintenance diet” for an adult lying abed consisted of two to three ounces of protein, two to three PERSONAL HEALTH SERVICE By William Brady, M. D.

Most of the com- mittee members will be here, includ- ing that grim liberal, Senator Homer T. Bone of Washington. who is on his way from the west coast. A certain elderly Greek “mystery man of Europe,” who has made mil- lions in munitions by fomenting va- rious wars and wears the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honor, will enter the picture. It turns out that he owns a large part of an American firm which sup- Plies this government and others with one of the most important in- struments of war. The committee's investigators, un- der Stephen T. Raushenbush, have been finding out how our armament makers keep busy between wars. And some of our admirals and gen- erals are going to be seriously em- barrassed. ADMIRALS LEND A HAND It seems the munitions boys con- centrate intensively on selling their wares to foreign governments and that they’ve had plenty of active help from inside the Navy, War, and State departments.

It was deficient in the equally essen- tial, if less ponderable or palpable vitamins and mineral elements. Add these vital factors to the classical maintenance ration and it becomes a maintenance ration in fact. Of course it is essential that the proper pro- portions of the accessory factors be added—the proportions or quantities that meet the physiological require- ments of the body.

CHISELING IRKS LAWYERS Legitimate local lewyers are fed up with the horde of lobbyists who open “law offices” for the purpose of us- ing political influence in practicing lore government departments. Al- though a lobbyist can’t represent a client in court if he isn’t a member of the bar, there’s nothing to pre- vent him from masquerading as a lawyer elsewhere. The District of Columbia Bar Association thinks its members are getting = bad name, espe- cially as many of the lobbyists represent themselves as qualified to give legal advice and draw up legal documents. It seeks a law be) ncn ad apenas Noel wyers. Nothing has been heard of the ad- ministration’s anti-lobbyist campaign for a long time, though it did lead to resignations of several national committeemen who are still doing business, both in politics and political favors. AN ELECTRIC RATE LESSON Spokesmen in the administration's campaign for cheaper electricity are using as an object lesson the history of rates right here in town. ‘The Potomac Electric Power com- pany has been thriving under a con- tract with the city to reduce rates each year by an amount equal to half its surplus earnings over 7% per cent of an agreed valuation. In eight years rates have been cut from an initial base of 10 cents a kilowatt hour to 3.9 cents, the com- pany’s earnings have increased from Bs means that no one could make it right but Howard himself. And he’s gone.’ Her mother had listened quietly. “I understand,” she said gently. “I was wrong to attempt it. I should have well. I feel very sorry for you, dear, but finding him out like this will help you to forget him. And that is what you must do.” The smile that touched her daugh- ter’s lips hurt Alva Rutledge more than anything t! had yet ie ed to her. It was so unmistak- ably the smile of one who faces a sorrow from which there is no es- cape. She closed her lips upon the remonstrance that rose to them. Nothing but time could change the girl's heart. Caroline said: “What are we to do about the packing, Mother?” “There are certain family heir- looms you must have,” Alva told her. “I dare say your father will have some one in to pack them for you. “But the thi: we will need in the new hous are you going to! look at it?” Alva winced. “My dear, couldn’t u do that ?” she appealed to Caro- “Your judgment is quite as as mine.” “Of course.
