Inspiration for Today | T will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, | that have set themselves against me round about.— | Psalms 3:6, eee Courage from hearts and not from numbers grows.—Dryden, Sanctions Not the least remarkable thing about the SLeague of Nations.is its unusual choice of words. The ordinary dictionary definition of “sanc- tion” means approval or support, but in the turgid atmosphere of Geneva it comes to mean “penalties.” What it means in other than a con- versational way—if it means anything—will ap- pear shortly, for the League is in the position of the man who had the bear by the tail. Appar- ently, despite the unanimity of its stand on the Italo-Ethiopian question, it is having trouble hanging on and it very muoh dislikes to let go. Meanwhile, strife continues in Africa and advocates of white civilization continue to bomb defenseless populations. Granted that powerful forces will rally to Italy in the event of hostilities; that Germany sill give at least secret support and other na- tions in Central Europe will honor an anti-Italian ‘agreement more in the breach than in the ob- servance, it cannot be overlooked that the real test is not of the League’s POWER to halt the war but of its DESIRE to do so. Anyone looking at a map of the war zone will note the length of Italy’s line of communications and the fact that it is controlled by England— arch enemy of Italy at Geneva. The British fleet is massed at Malta and Suez. Her air forces have been greatly enhanced. If England really wants to stop hostilities in Africa she can do so by barring the further pass- age of ships carrying men and supplies to the base of operations in Italian Somaliland and Eritrea. It would be a relatively simple matter but the trouble is that it might lead to REAL WAR ‘with two of the most important nations in Eu- ope involved and the rest getting in eventually. The fact that Italy apparently would be no match for England is beside the point. The Italians are hard pressed and they might try on the theory that they had everything to gain and nothing to lose. At a disadvantage because of geographical fposition, Mussolini is in the position of the gambler who has run a shoestring up to a con- siderable sum. As an international poker player he has made deuces do the work of aces. The question now is whether the nations of the League have the nerve to back what appears to ‘be acold hand as grimly as Il Duce is backing his. Indians and the Land ‘The current situation of North Dakota Indians, as dis- closed in charges and counter charges of conditions on the Standing Rock reservation, calls attention to the gov- ernment’s program for permanent aid to its redskinned wards. Historically, of course, everyone knows what happened to the Indian. Natural nomads, the plains tribes made their horhes wherever conditions were good for the mo- ment. The Mandans had permanent abodes but they seem to have been alone in this respect. Partially because they failed -to possess the land in the sense that the white man utilizes it, they were pushed swéstward and when their resistance finally was broken Whey were settled on reservations. The least productive flands available usually were selected for this use. Even there the Indian was not secure from white in- vasion. Fee-patent Indians, who held title to their lands, sold or leased them to white ranchers and today the res- ervation maps are dotted with plots owned by persons other than Indians. : In the lush -days of the world-war the white settlers found these properties profitable, but the recent hard years have changed that. Present owners are more than will- ing to sell and the government’s plan is to restore to the Indian the tand on reservations which has passed out of “In Kansas, Nebraska and the Dakotas, arrangements Shave been made to purchase 134,492 acres at a cost of 9610,996 or sbout $4.50 an acre. ; | ‘The aim is to return the Indian to stock raising, the Only phase of agriculture at which he has proved adept. there he has not been a good manager.

Gl iand or France, ehind the Scenes in Washington | | Fall... Reds Center Efforts on Germany and Ja- pan ... Labor Board Feels Cabinet Claws, eee Washington, Oct. 11—Gen. Hugh 8S. Johnson, ac- cording to a tip which has mildly perturbed certain in- siders here, has written an article for an anti-adminis- tration national magazine in which he excoriates liberal brain-trusters in the New Deal. Grapevine reports say the Johnson blast is to be pub- ished with considerable ballyhoo and that the general will undertake to prove that Roosevelt, though a fine fellow himself, has been deluded by reformers of the Tug- well and Frankfurter types, who are mentioned by name. Thus far no one has followed the example of the once powerful Donald Richberg, who wrote to the Sat- urday Evening Post warning of consequences if it pub- lished a Johnson article as derogatory to himself as he But more than one brain-truster who has befriended Johnson in the past admits considerable interest. eee EXPERTS GUESS ON WAR War in Ethiopia found most diplomats here admit- ting they were having an unusually difficult time fore- casting the fast moves on the European chessboard. They figure Mussolini himself has experienced some surprises, as they're sure he felt he had reason to believe he could proceed without interference from either Eng- Anglo-German and Franco-Italian understandings of early summer seem to have been unscrambled into an Anglo-French front against Mussolini and, potentially, against Hitler. But the belief among some well-informed close ob- servers—which may be blown sky-high overnight—ts, briefly: England, France, and Italy have agreed that there is to be no European war at this time. League of Nations sanctions will be applied grad- ually against Italy, allowing Mussolini to mop up | Ethiopia to a point where he can claim victory | and save hts face. | The league will then engineer @ peace agreement, terms yet to be arranged, but will make enough conces- sions to enable Mussolini to elec) of them at home. oe FALL OF DUCE FORESEEN { Such a theory is, at least, no more fantastic than the idea of a general European war. It includes the be- ef that Mussolini dares not court war with England. It proceeds to the conclusion that neither Britain nor many other league members will concede peace terms to Italy which would be much more advantageous than the league offer which Mussolini already has turned down. You can even hear predictions here that eventually this outcome will mean, as the Italian people come to realize they were handed a lem- on, the downfall of Mussolini. (The prophets are willing to bet as much as a dollar on it.) Some diplomats profess to see an informal alignment of the world’s democracies shaping against the two great) dictators, Mussolini and Hitler, and deduce that Fascism rather than democracy is headed toward the twilight. ‘The Russian dictatorship doesn’t figure in these cal- culations, as Stalin hasn’t become bellicose. cee | | REDS “BORING IN” | Russian Communist agents are nowhere near as busy in this country as some viewers-with-alarm would have you believe. Chief centers of secret Communist prepara- tions for revolutionary effort are Germany and Japan. Russians believe those two nations are likely to at- tack her in concert and hope to be able to ent up- jrisings at home which will weaken their military effort at the front. . . THE “TIGRESS” CLAWS A certain woman cabinet member, who shall be nameless, has been nicknamed “the wounded tigress” among the more facetious officials of the national lavor | relations board. The big fight over the Wagner labor disputes bill |was as to whether the new national labor relations board ! should be under supervision of the labor department. Hardly had the act passed—completely divorc- | ing the board from the department—than NLRB was advised that the space it occupied in the big | new Labor building would be needed for the social security board. Since the latter board had no money and needed little space for quite awhile, NLRB took its time. But recently it crammed into a small uptown office building. (Copyright, 1935, NEA Service, Inc.) LO With Other || Ao-DITORS | | Tiger, Tiger, Burning Bright | (Chicago Tribune) Probably no city ever liked the world championship so much ‘as Detroit and ever had so little of it. Next to De- troit in this respect we would place Chicago. These are the two teams which have completed the six game series crowning Detroit's major ambition at last. No one could possibly begrudge the people of the winning city the extra- ‘ordinary joy they have been having ever since the great moment Monday afternoon when Gordon Cochrane, if anybody recognizes Mickey by that name, crossed the plate in the ninth inning with the run winning the cham- pionship for his team. Detroit may dig itself out from the debris of victory some time in the course of the week. The citizenship may return to normal some time during the month. It is the first world’s championship brought to town. Chicago has made eight tries at the prize and won two, ‘way back in 1907 and 1908, when Detroit was the victim. Detroit has made five tries and this win over the Cubs is the first to give the Detroiters the final whoop. As contenders for the unattainable it is impossible to choose between the two teams, although Chicago has gone to the ordeal oftener. Some one had to break a string of bad luck when the finals brought the two orphans of the storm together and the dispensing fate chose to smile.on Mr. Cochrane's team rather than Mr. Grimm's. Detroit |had been waiting for this moment for thirty-two years. The real depression is over in that city and the loser ex- tends congratulations to the winner. As was befittingesuch a desperate occasion, the affair was very tight. A dispensation of two hits in two games taken from the team which got them and given to the team which didn’t would have settled the matter the other way. When the Cubs needed a hit or even a long outfield putout in the tenth inning Friday to win the game they couldn't get it. In the eleventh when Detroit needed a hit it was delivered. In the ninth Monday when Chicago needed the same long outfield putout or a hit it wasn’f'in the bats of Mr. Grimm’s young men and it was in Mr. Goslin’s a few minutes later, In a tight series the team which has the hits when they're needed will be the one hugged to death by frenzied admirers after the game. That is why Detroit is more or less loco at the present minute and why Chicago is begin- they say. | We may or may not agree with . them, Reprinted to | show what | | | indifferent state of the world, and affairs at home.

Presumably also the pres- operations and its unbalanced budg-| ent tax rates, which “Mr. Roosevelt | ‘The financial pojicies of the Roose- | government's ning to find a renewed interest in the Ethiopian war, the | ets, are becoming the center of a po- litical attention claimed today by few other issues. The trend gives increasing weight to the predictions of many politicians that, in the end, the dollars-and- cents aspects of the situation in Washington will influence far more votes in 1936 than all of the talk about economic theory and the con- stitution. When the ordinary voter grapples with the constitutional issue, or tries to dissect and: examine “the new economy” or “the more abundant life,” he usually fetches up at last in a fog of argument and bewildering contradiction. With money matters it is differ- ent. Many obscurities linger in the financial statements, but by and large anyone who can add and subtract is able to see whether the income is balancing or failing to balance the outgo, and draw his own conclusions. Possibly it was in recognition of this fact, that, within a single week, Mr. Roosevelt issued his prediction that no heavier taxes would be nec- essary to liquidate the depression) debts, and Mr. Hoover selected this same theme as the subject of a Speech regarded everywhere as the most important he has delivered since he left the White House. * oe The Figures The latest official figures forecast the following situation as of June 30, next: Russian HORIZONTAL 1 Daughter of the last Russian czar. 9 All her family were —. 14 Pheater atall. 15 Values. 17 Wind instrument. 18 Entrance. 19Cubie meter 20To carry 21To soak flax. 22 Peeping. 24 Father. 25 Class of birds. 27 Container weight. 29 Glossy silk. 31 Devoured. 33 Tasting good. 36 Rubber trees. 37 Broad smile. 38 Hawaiian bird. 89 Amber © 41 Fish. 42 43 Twitching 45 God of war [JIOTHIN] iC [AMIE |0} AINMEGIE (DIS) DIE INET iA] NIU] aU te 48 Flying mammal fl King of Bashan 52 A salute 54 5280 feet. 46 Southeast. 57 Sheaf. 58 To choose. 60 Cereal grass. 62She was a victim of the Bolshevist —— (pl Lt RYT Answer to Previous Puzzle MARSIMIALILY: 7 Writing AIRIEMMAIVIOIL ID) EIVIENMEF LIE |S Hie /RINIE!

Presumably, likewise, interest rates will go up with | prosperity, so that the carrying charge on the debt will be appreciably more | than the $745,000,000 of this year. | Making allowances for a favorable turn in all three of these undeter- minable factors, and assuming that expenditures can be reduced to the pre-depression level of about $3,500,- | 000,000 a year, it still seems certain jthat Mr. Roosevelt must have in mind spreading the payment of the accumulated debt over a very consid- erable period of years. t xk Ox : Other Points Raised Although he did not allude di- rectly to Mr. Roosevelt's proposal to pay out under present tax rates, it is obvious that Mr. Hoover's speech was based on a premise that this would not be possible. Even beyond this, the former Pres- ident raises points of which much more undoubtedly will be heard dur- ing the campaigh. He declares that much of the money dispensed by this administratfon-has been spent un- wisefully, wastefully and in violation of the Democratic campaign promises of 1932, So it appears that the spending is- | sue, as it now shapes up for 1936, will embrace something more than a charge of unsound financing.

The regular or normal activity of the intestine cann be permanently affected by such a cause—but if the medicine, emotion or food which is capable of disturbing the function is repeatedly taken, Eng after day, the same effects may be repeatedly produced. ‘That is all the constipation habit amounts to. ssninsad isa Gi Many individuals who have been educated by nostrum vendors and qi tiagtne the evil of constipation lies in the poisoning of the system by re- tained waste matter. That is sheer quack hokum, without even plausible sclentific basis. The best evidence of the absurdity of the morbid notion of “gutointoxication” is the fact that so many of us who know better and never use any sort of laxative or physic become quite constipated at times, pay no attention, do nothing about it, and suffer no inconvenience or un- pleasant symptoms whatever. The intestine is autonomous. Don’t interfere 4nd it will regulate itself. Constipation is a predicament rather than an ailment; the consequence of bad habit rather than the habit. You can’t permanently alter the functioning of the lungs by holding your breath or by deep breathing or faster breathing for a few moments every day or every hour.” Nor can you permanently alter the function of the intestine by any tem- porary interference. Even tho you take one physic or another every day for years, the bowel function remains unchanged, and will continue quite nor- mally if you suddenly quit taking the physic. The natural autonomic regu- lation will require from three to five days to readjust itself, but it invariably does 80, if only you have enough brains to wait and leave the machinery alone. This is not theory, but the practical experience of thousands of read- ers who have regained freedom from the physic habit. The harmful poisoning associated with constipation is not the imaginary “gutointoxication” but the poisoning of the entire organism by drugs taken as physic. ‘ QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Saleratus Is baking soda harmful if taken every day to ward off colds?
