But he must know by now, as he contemplates what seems to be the wreckage of his dearly beloved public utility holding company bill, that: His confidential secretary, Marvin McIntyre, was: found by investigators in a hotel room with one of the most active and effective paid lobbyists against that bill —on which he had forced a test of administration strength in congress. eee FRIENDS FAIL TO HELP Weekly by mail outside of North Dakota, per ie 3 2.00 year Weekly by mail in Canada, per year.. o.

Inspiration for Today For from within, out of the heart of men, pro- ceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, mur- ders.—St. Mark 7:21. ‘ ‘There is nothing truly evil, but what is within us; the rest is either natural or accidental—Sir Philip Sidney. Let Them Try It Voters in Alberta, Canada, subjected to a “share the wealth” barrage similar to that loosed in this country, have voted to adopt the policies of William Aberhart, economic evan- pelist. The system which may be tried there, although not explained in detail in the press, provides for an expansion of credit and the crea- tion of credit money or certificates. The method of distribution is not announced in early dis- patches but, presumably, it would be on a per capita basis since this is an outgrowth of mass action. It is clear that, as a result of the Alberta provincial election, the United States gets a break. Our sister nation will try out this un- usual proposal and we shall have the benefit of its experience by the time the same sort of thing becomes, a national issue in the United States—if and when. As is customary with economic dreamers, Mr. Aberhart doubtless has ideas of his own which may not coincide with those of Huey Long, Dr. Townsend, Father Coughlin and oth- ers in this country who are preaching doctrines which appeal most strongly to them. But he also has the benefit of knowing what they think and will not be hampered by constitutional lim- itations in putting his policies into effect—if in fact the constitution ever hampers any really worthwhile proposal, Mr. Aberhart’s new cooperative common- wealth may turn out to be a huge success. In which case America might well take advantage of its experience. Tf, on the other hand, it proves merely an- other case of ineffectual tugging at the eco- nomic bootstraps, it can serve as a horrible ex- ample by which we may be warned. Had Mr. Sinclair won the governorship of California in 1934 we might now have an ex- ample within our own borders by which to judge whether the lions and the lambs can lie down side by side at political dictation or whether, human nature being what it is, such experiments lead only to chaos and a lowering of the general level of prosperity. Many open-minded persons don’t mind ex- perimentation but their natural caution makes them fearful lest it lead to conditions worse than those we already have experienced. Vari- ous schools of thought hammer constantly at the public mind and it has a tendency to become confused. It needs concrete examples upon which to base judgment rather than untried and oft-times vague theories. In this case, Canada seems about to furnish us with one. It is certain to be of compelling {nterest in this country either as a shining or a horrible example—perhaps as both. Not All in Hospitals The tragedy at Valley City in which a shell-shocked war veteran is accused of murder hints at a fact which she public does not always realize. That is the peculiar mental condition which besets more war veterans than the general public imagines. Every so often something occurs to emphasize the con- iition that not all war casualties are in hospitals, This is not surprising. Taken from home and sub- jected to the horrors of a universal cataclysm, a delib- srate effort was made to instill in our soldiers a “devil- may-care” attitude. It is good for soldiers who are called apon to risk their lives in battle but hardly conducive to success in peace-time endeavors. Many men find the terrible scenes of war recurring to them in their dreams but they are banished from their waking thoughts. These men have the strength to put ‘heir war experiences behind them. But other and weaker minds are unable to do s0. The war lives with them every minute. The psychology expressed in that famous song of “where do we go from here” still dominates their activities. Some have be- come roamers. Others have about them more than a faint touch of irresponsibility. Physically normal, their minds Dot as other men. It is this coridition which explains the apparently inexplicable. It is not a pretty thing, but it is as real as the wounds which other veterans bear. Not all of war's casualties are in hospitals. Some of them have never been there. His former law partner, Basil O’Connor—with whom he had had closer business relations than with any other man—had received $25,000 or more from Associated Gas & Electric, which spent at least a millon dollars to beat the bill. His administration’s most vigorous top-rank leader in the house, John J. O’Connor—brother of Basil—is at- tacked by friends of the bill as one of its most effective enemies. Two senators to whose presence here he contributed conspicuously—Burke of Nebraska (whose prestige F. D. enhanced greatly by quoting Burke's “definition of the New Deal” in his Green Bay speech, but who both voted and lobbied against the bill) and Chavez of New Mexico (for whom F. D. stultified himself by supporting his can- j|Gidacy against the late Bronson Cutting) turned him down on the senate vote. At least three of his political generals in the last campaign—Ex-National Committeemen Bob Jackson of New Hampshire, Bruce Kremer of Montana and Arthur Mullen of Nebraska, all friends of McIntyre and all re- cipients of numerous favors from this administration— were paid by holding companies to fight the bill. eee ‘CLEANUP’ DEMANDED All these incidents may make no impression on the president, who is very great optimist. And in consid- ering them it isn’t necessary to accept bitter accusations by New Dealers of “betrayal” or to comment favorably or adversely on the ethics of McIntyre and the others named. (You can believe, if you like, that those fellows are only trying to save F. D. from his own worst in- stincts.) But they do call to mind simultaneously the recent, remark to this writer by a White House insider that if Roosevelt were politically ruined the fault would be that of “friends” to whom he remained Joyal, the fact that they indicate a serious weakness in the administration and the news that they have helped bring on an under- cover campaign by New Deal liberals for an administra- tion “cleanout.” Roosevelt may not have heard of this campaign yet. But he soon will. It is directed most of all against McIntyre, the slen- der, white-haired man of 57 years who guards the presi- dent’s inner door, controlling Roosevelt's visiting lst and the matters which are laid before him. eee McINTYRE’S WEAKNESS The lobbyists have done their worst by this genial, friendiy, happy, fun-loving—and naive—man. Doubtless every presidential secretary ever known has had associ- ates among lobbyists, but usually with discretion. Mc- Intyre is mad about social life—not the formal, stuffy official society of Washington, but the gay, informal, vinous night life which lobbyists often use to such gain- ful purpose. And the lobbyists took advantage of that weakness, entertaining “Mac” publicly and semi-publicly—as if anxious to be seen with him—until purists of the town came to consider the show a major scandal. Shipbuilding, naval supply and “power trust” lobby- ists were especially conspicuous among the secretary's associates. eee IN ‘ENEMY’ CAMP A climax came when senate investigators and news- papermen hunting Associated Gas & Electric’s master mind H. C. Hopson found McIntyre in the hotel room of Bernard Robinson, one of Hopson’s chief lobbyists, with Robinson, Assistant Treasury Secretary “Chip” Robert and Amon Carter, Texas publisher. Alternating threats and pleas to newspapermen did no good. The story was printed. McIntyre had lunch with Robinson the day after the “raid” in the main din- ing room of the Mayflower hotel. Later on the night of the “raid,” I was mentioning to “Mac” the widespread criticism as to his friendships with lobbyists and he said: “You know the answer to that. I'm friendly with x ” But that answer isn’t enough for liberals and pro- gressives in the government who accuse “Mac” of mis- using his job for benefit of special interests and re- actionary politicians. They're grimly determined to “get” him, and may succeed. (Copyright, 1935, NEA Service, Inc.) E With Other DITORS Who Pays for Social Security? - (Minneapolis Tribune) The flourishes which accompanied the signing of the social security bill by President Roosevelt, while they con- formed to established custom, were also a recognition of the importance of this measure in the legislative history of the country. For the first time in the nation’s history, we are to have nation-wide old age pensions and unem- ployment insurance. In one single step, the United States is to be brought up to the standard in social legislation set by some European countries that have been testing systems of this kind for a generation and more. In our haste to catch up with the procession, mis- takes have been made and it is an open question whether the legislation will stand the test of constitutionality. In the statement which accompanied his signature, Presi- dent Roosevelt recognized the incompleteness of the sys- tem which this legislation hopes to create. But he de- clard that “we have tried to frame a law which will give some measure of protection to the average citizen and to his family against the loss of a job aga stricken old age.” With those objectives enlightened | opinion is now in general sympathy. But everyone must recognize that the scheme which it is now panacea for all our ills, and that it can only mitigate “the hazards and vicissitudes of life.” In the last analysis no government can “guarantee” the social security of its citizens. It can, by a system of taxation and enforced saving, reduce those hatards which confront every individual, but in doing so it need not be overlooekd that the costs will be borne by all those who work and save. Ultimately this social security legislation will mean adding 6 per cent to the labor costs of business. No one need be under any entire burden of this increased cost is by the employers. In the long run shared by those who are consumers and those who It does not follow that simply because will cost money, however, they are un the contrary, nothing worth nothing. But too many people seem to pression that the average man is | help pay for this experiment in @ matter of fact, he will have burden. The most important ever enacted in this country also tax bill ever imposed by our federal government, that fact sinks home, and social security is expressed the terms of a tax bill and not in the pleasant of politicians, we will all have a better idea of means to have a government “insure” our future well be- ing.

More and more bills are being passed each year. It is estimated that some 500 pages alone will be required to index new legislation en- acted since January 3. And some 3,000 large pages will be necessary to print the text of the new laws. ‘The task of compiling and index- ing the statutes at large passed by congress rests on the shoulders of the historical adviser of the state department, Hunter Miller. The legal section of Miller’s office does the actual work. The historical adviser also has the responsibility of seeing that the original law—bear- ing the signatures of the speaker of the house, the vice president and president—is preserved carefully. Many Copies Made These original pieces of legislation, printed on parchment of 100 per cent Tag, are sent to the state department immediately after the president af- fixes his signature. ‘The editor of the laws of congress in the legal section of the historical adviser’s office first gets four copies of each law from the government printing office. Each of these copies is certified as a true copy of the original. Then one is sent to the bu- reau of the budget, another to the treasury, the third to the general accounting office and the fourth to with broad mar- A special classified, summarized, annotated and catalogued. < Laws Exceed 500 When the corrected proof is re- turned to the office of the historical adviser the marginal references are checked to previous volumes. This done the copy goes once again to the public printer for plating. The plat- ing is checked with the second revised copy at the state department then it goes back to the printer for binding. The secretary of state must pro- duce a bound volume of laws enacted at each session at the end of that session. The 78rd congress required two volumes. As the 74th congress entered its final week a total of 545 laws had been passed. This number included 275 public laws, 222 private laws and 48 public resolutions. The signed originals are bound and placed in steel cabinets in a fire- proof room at the state department. ay A gentleman cannot support a fam- ily.

For example, the well-to-de have the advantage of their choice of physicians, specialists, hospital or nursing care, and excellent clinics and care are provided by the community for the indigent, but the great independent class of moderate means, sub- stantial people who pay their own way and pay as they go, must suffer from the poor consideration shown for their In some this plea for the white collar class falls flat, for we have the feeling that they asked for it. were not compelled to elect white collar jobs in the first place; way as being something more genteel than he-man jobs. Of course that is not the whole case, but it is a large factor in the white collar problem. Many a man who drifts into the belief that he is fit only for a white job could do a man’s work and earn a man’s pay if the right psychology applied to this business. Trou- ble is that Yankeeland is at heart a trifle snobbish, after all, and the dignity of honest labor has not yet gained the recognition in real life that it receives in poetry. Minister writing from a midwest rural community bemoans the nutri- tional defciencies of people on relief and asks me to work out a diet con- taining sufficient vitamins, as well as iron, protein, etc., and publish it in ths column. It should be a very cheap diet, he says. That is useless. They can’t comprehend it. But it may be worth while to repeat a suggestion or two, whch I have been giving here for years, but only an occasional reader heeds. Instead of using flour, use plain wheat, either entire as it comes from the thresher or ground, cracked or in your own mill to suit your need. This will automatically restore to the deficient diet vitamins A, B, G and E, as well as part of the calcium and phosphorus of which refined foods are robbed. Wheat contains five times as much iron as white flour contains. I have published here several times good recipes for varous things made of plain wheat home ground. Send stamped envelope bearing your address and ask for the leaflet “Wheat to Eat.” Another suggestion which generally falls on deaf ears is that everybody should eat more cheese. Any and every kind of cheese, whatever you like and can get. Cottage chéese, Dutch cheese, American cheese, or any of the various fancy imported cheeses. These are excellent sources of protein, and Se beans or peas, will completely compensate for any lack of meat in the Finally, this is a good time to remind readers that peanuts are still among the most nourishing, healthful, economical staple foods money can buy. Any kind of cheese, with some peanuts and whatever green or fresh vegetable happens to be available, makes a salad fit for a king. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Yellow Spots Several months ago yellow spots appeared on my upper eyelids near the nose. Asked my doctor about it, and he said it is nothing to worry about. But I do worry, as they seem to grow gradually and are very unsightly. Had ew Could that have anything to do... . Answer—Xanthoma—slightly raised yellow nodules of plates in the skin. Aside from cosmetic e:xbarrassment the condition is harmless. Phy- sicians skilled in diathermy can obliterate the spots with dessicating current, which is less likely to leave scar than any other means of removing them. Footwear and Bare Feet How do shoes and stockings interfere with the discharge of waste mat- ter from the soles of the feet? Is it better to dispense with stockings when- jever possible? (O. H. B.) Answer—I think it is always healthful to go barefoot whenever pos- sible, with due care about the hazard of contracting foot itch (ring worm) or dew itch (hook worm). Footwear does not interfere with discharge otf waste matter. If you are troubled with sweating feet, with or without bad odor, send stamped envelope bearing your address and ask for monograph on “Care of the Feet.” (Copyright, 1935, John F. Dille Co.) “1 don’t cnow what Bret chinks of you.” Tubby said “But t know darned well what ¢ think otf this Fragonet. Letting you velleve ne saved your life!
