Tragedy in the North Two well-loved Americans went to their Weaths in the plane which crashed with Will Rogers and Wiley Post in Alaska. They were two men cruising alone in a tiny aircraft, yet when it fell there was more of real nation-wide mourning than occurred a quarter century ago when the Titantic, giant ocean liner, was ripped open and sank in the North Atlantic. The Titantic carried the high-born, power- ful and wealthy of two continents. Yet not one of the men aboard it had endeared himself to the mass of American people as had both Rogers and Post. The reason is that each was a man of Bchievement and each had done the sort of thing which endeared him to large masses of people, Post’s record, if it is shorter, was the more Bpectacular. People knew less about him than they did about Rogers. This is always true of Post’s kind of man. An Argonaut whose gaze reached beyond known frontiers, he first flashed across the consciousness of the world when he and Harold Gatty circled the globe in record time. America gasped at their endurance and daring. It was an epoch for aviation. Close upon this exploit came Post’s single- handed flight around the world, again in his beloved Winnie Mae, in which he established a mew time record and set a high mark for human endeavor which may last far into the future despite the mechanical advances of aviation. A young industry, aviation has relatively few traditions, but it is certain that Post will be one of them. His world-girdling exploits are reminiscent of the older seafaring days when tradition had it that ships of wood were sailed by men of iron. More recently—and perhaps more impor- ftant—Post had given much attention to pio- neering flights in the stratosphere. His an- mounced intention was to set a new coast-to- coast speed mark. In this he failed, yet he did prove that flights through the upper air are practical. He pointed the way toward the next advance in a science which he greatly loved fand which eventually claimed his life. Rogers’ history is more placid. He was the hhumorist who came closest to the heart of ‘America. Occasionally one heard it suggested, mot entirely in jest, that he would make a good president. His homely philosophy was such that everyone understood and appreciated it. {His humor was such that anyone might have priginated it. Yet only Will Rogers did. Friend to the great and the near great, he {yet prized the friendship of the common man. ‘And less distinguished folk took keen delight in his habit of deflating the egotistic, of gently ns out the foibles of great men in public ife. He had come to fame and fortune by a hard toute. The circus, the stage, the movies were his training school. He was not so much a great actor as a great character. But the peo- ple loved him and respected him. A few words from Will Rogers often were as effective in moulding the thoughts of the nation as a long speech from anyone else. The most quoted man in the nation, he met ~ responsibility lightly but withal honor- ly. It is only a few years since Will Rogers stood on a Bismarck stage and asked an ‘ap- plauding audience if it didn’t know when to go home. He had regaled it with stories, quips and anecdotes but the people still wanted more. Only a few hours before that he had lounged (nto The Tribune office to meet the local scribes, get a little atmosphere for his stage appear- nce. Famous as few men ever get to be, he getained a modesty which was one of his main haracteristics, The comment then was that this peculiar genius was as “common as an old hoe.” He was always that way, which ex- ai why he stood out in groups where many fwere struggling to prove their brilliance and The size of the G.

Ickes Hands Out a Hot One... Jefferson Still Has Say So in House. eee » Washington, Aug. 17—The six New England states of Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhole Island and Connecticut would go Repulbican if the presidential election were held tomorrow or the day after. That, at least, is the private opinion of the strate- gists of the Democratic political machine. They suspected as much, even before the Republican congressional victory in Rhode Island. Now they're vir- tually convinced. Rhode Island Democrats occupying administration posts, including some smart politicians, were predicting weeks ago that Judge Risk, the Republican candidate, would defeat Mr. Prince, the Democlatic candidate. But they didn’t expect quite such a hard wallop. Although the effect will be to pep up Republican morale everywhere, one needn’t accept the minority party's ballyhoo that this isolated election means “the beginning of the end” for the New Deal. ee ‘EMOTION’ BIG FACTOR Politicians of both parties feel that New England is an isolated area temporarily emotional—and perhaps through 1936—over the processing tax. Its textile indus- try is in a bad way and whether that’s due to the AAA program as a whole, the processing tax in particular, the inexorable effect of southern low wage competition, or something else again is an academic matter in so far as New England voters are concerned. The fact that New England has gone sour on the administration is more important in political calcula- tions than the somewhat faint-hearted alibis that Re- publicans in the Rhode Islan] district picked a more Popular, outstanding candidate than did the Democrats and that, after all, the Democrats had won that district only twice in the last 20 years. Thus far the Democrats whose job it is to keep track of such things won’t concede much of anything outside of New England. They're dead certain of the south and west, they claim—though some confess vague worries as to the Mountain states—if you press them—and can’t see much reason to worry in the important tier of states running from New York to Illinois. Just between you and me, things are happening so rapidly these days—politically and otherwise—that no one should draw any strong conclusions about 1936 from anything that happens this month or next or the one after. eee JEFFERSON STILL HAS SAY SO Democrats—and sometimes even Republicans—who invoke the shade of Thomas Jefferson as they orate in the house seldom realize that their movements are gov- erned by that same man Jefferson. Chairman John J. O'Connor of the rules committee reminded them of that the other day when he pointed had been incorporated into the rules of the house. He was by way of saying that for a long time he had been tempted to make a point of order against the “con- tinuous fulminations” of @ certain congressman toah Pennsylvania—“every time he has stood on this floo1 and whenever the house has evidenced that they no longer desire to hear him.” He read from the Manual: “No one is to disturb another in his speech by hiss- ing, coughing, spitting, speaking or whispering to an- other, nor stand up to interrupt him, nor to pass between the speaker and the speaking member, nor to go across the house, nor to walk up and down it, or to take books or papers from the table or to write there.” Panery SO PIPE DOWN, PLEASE But more important, continued O'Connor, was para- graph 365, entitled “Parliamentary method of silencing @ tedious member”: “Nevertheless, if a member finds that it is not the inclination of the house to hear him, and that by con- versation or any other noise they endeavor to drown his voice, it is his prudent way to submit to the pleasure of the house, and sit down; for it scarcely ever happens that they are guilty of this piece of ill manners without sufficient reason, or inattention to a member who says anything worth their hearing.” Fact is, of course, admonitions of Jefferson's para- graph 365 have been violated as often as any other rule with the possible exception of the late lamented 18th amendment. (Copyright, 1935, NEA Service, Inc.) With Other DITORS Your Own Back Yard (Adams County Record) Although the affairs of the smaller towns and cities appear to run in a smooth and unhindered channel, nevertheless the problems of these rural communities are many. Chief among them is the inability of our aens to cooperate effectively in building for the ‘uture. - There are any number of people in Hettinger and other small cities who are deeply concerned over the vice situation in Chicago and New York and over the traffic problems in other metropolitan areas. They even worry about the poor children without playgrounds in large cities and bemoan the political dominance of these centers by unfavorable interests. They are stir- ring themselves up about matters which they cannot Solve but, at the same time, they overlook the existence of the same problems, on a smaller scale, in their own home town. One of the troubles that besets the proper develop- ment of Hettinger is this failure on the part of its citi- zens to devote their thoughts to the solution of its own affairs. Because problems here are not intensely ag- gravated at the present time, few citizens realize that the future excellence of Hettinger depends upon the solution of these problems before they become enormous. Careful planning today means a better city tomorrow. Local citizens should think of Hettinger in terms of 50 years from now. Only by so doing can they care- fully, correctly and intelligently eliminate future dif- Peultles that will inevitably block our desired develop- ment, Reprinted to show what thoy say. We may. or may not agree with them. obtain acclaim similar to that which came to him—and which he accepted—so easily. The nation mourns these men because it needed them, Post pointed the way toward daring ex- ploits and far horizons. He was a type to in- spire the pioneering spirit. Death, to such a man, is merely another adventure—the great- est which life holds, Rogers illumined the thoughts of our own minds, brought smiles to our faces, glorified the little things which every person knows.

Perhaps the question asked most frequently among Washington poli- ticlans is “What man is closest to President Roosevelt?” The answer has varied many times during the past three years. Insiders, however, are pretty gen- erally agreed at the present that Mr. Roosevelt's closest adviser on prob- lems of broad policy is the handsome, bespectacled Prof. Felix Frankfurter, Harvard law professor. A frequent visitor to the White House and a Prolific correspondent, he is credited with advocating the move of using tax powers to limit bigness in business. The professor moves silently and mys- teriously in his contacts with the White House. eee Professor's Proteges ‘The proteges of the Harvard law Professor also figure largely in the personalities now glittering in the inner Washington limelight. The two most prominent are Tom Corcoran, youthful RFC attorney, and Ben ‘Cohen, PWA attorney. Corcoran, a co-author of the pub- Ue utility bill, enjoys not only an official but a social standing with the president. Gossip has it he is in line for a place on the White House secretariat when a vacancy occurs. He was the center of the fight on the utility holding company bill. Cohen {s credited with being the ‘author of much of the bill to regulate and destroy utility holding companies, The cause of the deadlock in con- ference on the measure, due to the fact that proponents of the “death sentence” section insisted he be per- mitted to sit in as an adviser, Cohen lis disliked heartily by some members ‘of congress, but stands high at the White House. if Wallace Still High Those formerly considered as hav- ing access to the presence of the presi- dent on matters of policy—Rex Tug- well, Donald Richberg, Ray Moley, et al, are in the background at least for the moment. Secretary Wallace of the depart- ment of agriculture, known as the “philosopher” of the “new deal,” still stands high in the graces of the presi- dent. The claimed success of AAA ahs brought him the admiration and confidence of the White House. Another man — Joseph Kennedy, chairman of the securities and ex- change commission, has earned the gratitude of the president. Kennedy's success in turning what financiers thought was an unworkable law into one that works has won the applause of business men by helping to engi- neer a revival of nearly lifeless in- vestment markets. The youthful, hard-working, for- mer college professor—Charles West, new undersecretary of the interior— is rated as a “comer” in the “new deal” family. He has been principal liason between the White House and ‘congress and is among the closest to the “throne room.” The New Deal is full of mistakes, but the Old Deal is no substitute— Senator Peter Norbeck, 8. D. Those who would live for nobler ends than the multitude pursues are sure to find themselves in opposition to that multitude and, more often New Senator than not, hated and persecuted by it.—Dr. B. I. Bell of Providence, R. I. I doubt if even the most sanguine among our assailants think that Re- publican success is possible in 1936.— Postmaster General Farley.

THE SCAR LEFT BY OPERATION Blindly following the lead of the Journal of the American Medical Association which is used to promote the editor and his friends, many unsophisticated doctors have taken it as true that electrocoagulation (di thermy) of the tonsils leaves too much scar which is likely to cover up in- fection and cause trouble in future. a Some such thing may have happened in certain cases. Unfortunately many throat specialists have attempted to employ this method without hav- ing received proper clinical instruction by a master of the method, and in- evitably their work has been bungled. It is hardly fair to condemn a method because amateurs have done harm with it. The Journal of the American Medical Association was and is clearly prejudiced upon this question. The brilliant editor, himself without knowledge or experience to speak of, un- dertook to decide the policy and view of the organized profession in the early days of diathermy. I was advocating it to my readers, and that was the A. M. A. loud speaker’s cue to condemn it. Now he can’t change his attitude too suddenly, you see, so the dumb doctors in the sticks, inarticulate in the oligarchy, still think the newfangled method is “dangerous” or “doesn’t get all the tonsil” or “causes dense scar which covers over the wel of ieee Soe can assure readers ie method of tonsils and adenoids is not more likely to leave excessive or tdublascene see ‘ae ie than is the old Spanish custom, the guillotine and snare, or dissection. I challenge any physician, surgeon or specialist to controvert this statement.

For that matter, I'll undertake to produce official reports of fatalities following or in the course of the standard surgical tonsillectomy for every case of even un- perciiend results from diathermy—all from the practice of good reputable spec! . I ask no pardon for dwelling on the scandalously high mortality of surgical tonsillectomy in the hands of the best physicians, surgeons or specialists in the country. We are yet to hear of a fatality from diathermy extirpation of the tonsils. Remember, I warn you against the amateurs and the bunglers who purport to use the modern method. Most of them are more or less shady, near-doctors, or without standing, on the fringes of the profession, but some of them are nose and throat specialists of the best standing. Here I approve and commend the method, not the man who uses it. If I know of ® physician in your vicinity who is competent I am always glad to name him, by private letter. But so many good doctors now use diathermy for extirpation of tonsils and adenoids that I have given up trying to keep a list of them all. I feel that diathermy or electro-coagulation is now firmly Serie oy American practice, and satisfied patients themselves are its voce QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Headaches and Underweight I wish to thank you for your monographs on headache and underweight which you sent me at my request.

X-ray Diagnosis of Tuberculosis Can lung tuberculosis be detected by X-ray when an ordinary doctor fails to diagnose it? (C. J.) Answer—X-ray picture gives only corroborative evidence. X-ray evi- dence alone may be misleading, for other conditions may cast shadows simi- lar to those of tuberculosis. This is one of many questions answered in “1000 Questions and Answers on T.

If you'll pardon my excessively snoopy, you got back that night about 11. Of course that's all right—but you've been mighty quiet sbout it ever since.” Jo laughed. “Well, there wasn't much to report, except that I didn’t lose my job.” “I noticed that,” said Tubby meaningly. “And I've also noticed that Marsh hasn't been nearly so attentive to Babs Montgomery since that time.” “You ought to be a detective Tubby.
