No booklet it you omit either the coin or the addressed stamped envelope. The old practice of blowing the breath into the victim's mouth and lungs by mouth to mouth insufflation is still a valuable aid. When doing this, place a piece of muslin or several folds of cheesecloth or gauze over 7 the mouth and blow through this. Remember, you are merely supplying a natural carbon dioxide oxygen mixture. You are not trying to inflate the lungs, So use no force at all. The lungs are inflated and can be inflated only by the compression-of the thorax by the prone-pressure operator.

Just as the custom of leaving calling cards tends to fall into disuse, the modern tendency among nations is to dispense with formal declarations of war. Consequently, according to rules of international law, Italians might kill any number of Ethiopians on) Ethiopian soil and still not be at war. S.

The international law of it was that there hadn’t been any violation of the Kellogg treaty until both nations declared war or a state of war. Perhaps the point isn’t important. But it offers a chance for a lot of diplomatic sidestepping and phenag- ling. 3 | Inspiration for Today But Jesus turning unto them said, Daughters | of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for your- | selves and for your children—St. Luke 23:28. ore i ‘Time is the great comforter of grief, but the agency by which it works is exhaustion.—L. E. Landon. eee THIS IS TOO GOOD TO SHUSH One Element Missing With a state supreme court decision on the basic factors of truck and rail competition for pay loads still in the offing, it is interesting to note that in none of the numerous cases in- volving railroad freight rates which have been heard by the state railroad board, has the cost of rendering service been ascertained or even suggested. A veteran state official who long has been familiar with these matters, commented recent- ly that this factor seems to be universally ignored in the effort to establish fair charges. Such things as capitalization and competition i are examined in detail, but never is there any H evidence as to how much it costs to haul a ton of freight from one point to another. This state has had many battles over freight rates and the end is not yet. We will have many more. In view of the record it would seem that both the railroads and truckers and the agencies supervising their operations are over- looking the one factor which will come closest to pointing the way toward a fair determina- tion. The railroads have plenty of statisticians to compile other data and the task of determin- ing legitimate costs should not prove too dif- ficult for them. Cost of service is one of the basic factors in Your correspondent finds himself unable to suppress this story: A man in New York who makes frequent business trips to Washington bears a closer facial resemblance to Herbert Hoover than any other known human being. Not long ago he and a friend were celebrating at the Cotton Club, center of the capital’s “little Harlem.” About midnight they had conducted themselves with sut- ficient exuberance to cause them to be bounced out. ‘The New York man found a wooden box and mount- ed it at the corner of 15th and’ U streets. He announced his candidacy for president of the United States on a platform calling for the closing of the Cotton Club, Two colored policemen came to the scene as he thundered on. But his friend restrained them, saying: “Don’t you recognize Herbert Hoover when you see him? Give him a chance. After all, this doesn’t happen very often.” The cops promptly devoted themselves to keeping back the crowd, which soon amounted to nearly 200 people. No one knows how long this might have gone on if a couple of girls hadn’t come along in a car and invited the speaker for a ride down town. He said good night to his audience and accepted at once. oe. AAA LOOKS ITSELF OVER Taking precautions against publicity, about 50 of the highest officials in AAA recently had a secret three- day week-end at the old Weather Bureau station at Mount Weather, Va., to discuss various AAA headaches. Secretary Wallace and Administrator Chester Davis led this retreat to the hills. Foremost on the agenda was the problem of AAA and the consumer. Wallace rammed home the point to a largely farmer-minded group that insistence on scarcity and high prices would eventually wreck the AAA. He said the program must be’ made a flex- ible one, not just a check-writing process, and that farmers mustn’t be encouraged to demand programs which would cause consumers to turn against them.

(2) It was good politics, The Re- publicans from Henry P, Fletcher, chairman of the Republican national committee, on down the line have been crying incessantly that we must ‘Balance the budget.” G.
