As a result forces supporting prohibition are again point- ing to the menace of the drunken driver as reason for again out- lawing the legal sale of liquor and the public consciousness is slowly rising to the boiling point. In many courts the drunken driver gets short shrift and the number of judges who are willing to make examples of such offenders is increasing. Now the automotive industry, through Alfred Reeves, vice president and general manager of the Automobile Manufac- turers association, emphasizes the necessity of curbing the mix- ture of alcohol and motor cars by asserting that the man who drinks at all when he drives is a major menace on the highways. Statistics show only a moderate increase in convictions for drunken driving since repeal of prohibition, but Reeves feels that the number of cases in which drink was a factor has in- creased tremendously. The reason they are not listed as such on the books, he said, is that traffic policemen find it easier to obtain convictions by charging reckless driving and showing what the defendant did rather than by attempting to prove the condition in which they found him at the time of his arrest, }Pre-convention running mate of Sen- It all boils down to the question of how much a man may drink and at the same time retain normal control of his senses. Some “human tanks” can drink a lot and still act normally. Others, when they know they have had more than they can stand, experience an excess of caution and drive with extreme care. The really dangerous man is the one who has had just enough to make him feel exhilirated, according to Reeves. He is the fellow who is likely to step hardest on the accelerator and take undue chances at a time when his faculties are not in the best condition to meet an emergency. ‘No one could say that| he was drunk and yet the drink or two which he has taken may play a leading part in the creation of conditions leading to accident. In the observation of one Bismarck man who, in his time, has been something of an authority on the effects of strong drink, even the most two-fisted of drinking men can get his scuppers awash and experience the need of a lee shore. On this basis the only way of rating drinking and driving is to say that any man who has taken a drink is one drink drunk, If motorists would keep that in mind it might do much to reduce the accident toll. Not a Bad Idea John W. Studebaker, U. S. commissioner of education, has introduced a new type of commencement address to the Ameri- can scene. Speaking at the graduation exercises of the University of North Carolina, he declined to make the usual speech or to indulge in the usual platitudes (“You now are going forth to fight the battle of life, etc.”) and instead participated in a Public discussion with five of the university's leading graduates. The reason, the good doctor says, is “What I think is not half so important as what these young people think. They are the leading characters in today’s scene. We should know what | they think and how they feel about their next role in the human drama of living.” The subject of the discussion “Where Do We Commence” is illuminating. If this system were universally adopted old- sters might learn a great deal about the thoughts of those who are leaving school today and who tomorrow will be playing an important part in the political, economic, social and cultural de- velopment of this country. Pillar of Society It is significant that the juvenile court judges of the coun- try are seriously considering the organization of a national association of members of their profession, in an effort to im- prove the work of this particular judicial branch. The juvenile court was created to meet a special need in our social structure. Unfortunately, however, says Judge Harry L. Eastman of Cleveland, it has continued to concern itself only with its immediate needs and problems, and has neglected to develop “a clear-sighted philosophy of its place in the social welfare pattern.” It has been said repeatedly by social workers and crim- inologists, judges and attorneys that the work of the juvenile court is of first importance in crime prevention. Any move to improve this vital unit of government is heartily welcome. Tree Planter No. 1 Seeking to rectify the ruthless destruction of its forests in past years, Uncle Sam is rapidly becoming the foremost tree planter in the world. That is exceptionally good news when one considers that this country is practically new at the game. In 1935, for instance, the Forest Service’s own planting in national ‘forests approximated 225,000,000 acres—more than were planted in 1934 by all agencies, federal, state and private. This year’s plantings will increase the total more than 10 per cent. There are more than 162,000,000 acres of national for- ests alone in the United States, and the estimated total forest acreage is more than 500,000,000 acres. -. The countries with the biggest forest reserves now include Russia, Brazil, Canada and the United States. Europe has long practiced replanting. It. is gratifying to note that at last America is becoming conservation conscious. 1 4 . | publishers and editors of Kansas and rae Behind ne SCENES At The Convention moe cc coos csoocs) By RODNEY DUTCHER (Tribune Washington Correspondent) Cleveland, June 11.—The Repub- lican national convention resembles a joint session of the American News- Paper Publishers’ association, the American Society of Newspaper Edi- tors, and the White House Correspon- dents’ association. The journalistic flavor of the show is so strong that you'd hardly notice the difference if all the non-news- papermen went home. Many of the hundreds of Fourth Estaters on the scene are in politics up to the neck. The others are ob- serving or reporting. It is the activ- ity of the former group, astonishingly large, which is as striking as any other phase of the convention and Possibly indicative of a new trend in American politics. To give you the picture briefly: The Landon boom was begun by Kansas City, Mo., who have now come to Cleveland in swarms. The editorial pre-convention board of strategy has been helping run the Landon end of the convention, aided by that cele- brated elderly trio of Kansas journal- ists, William Allen White, Henry J, Allen, and Senator Arthur Capper. Even the Landon floor leader, Con- gressman Joseph W. Martin, Jr., turns out to be the publisher of the Eve- ning Chronicle in North Attleboro, Mass. * oe Knox in Vigorous Fight Col. Frank Knox, the most vigorous of all the contenders for nomination, | is, as everybody knows, the successful publisher of the big Chicago Daily News. His manager is former Sena- tor George Higgins Moses, still a newspaperman and former publisher of a newspaper in Concord, N. H. Senator Arthur Vandenberg, dark- est and biggest of all the 1936 dark horses, is publisher of the Grand Rapids (Mich.) Herald which he edited until he went to the senate. Active at Cleveland in his behalf was Publisher A. L. Miller of the Battle Creek Enquirer-News and the Lansing State Journal in Michigan. And finally there is Frank E. Gan- nett, one of America’s outstanding newspaper publishers, who served as ator William E. Borah. He publishes 20 newspapers in 14 cities in New York, New Jersey, Ilinois and Con- necticut. ** * Knight Is Active Also active in the Borah campaign was Publisher John 8. Knight of the Akron Beacon-Journal, who lost in his race for delegate to the conven- tion. But it’s the Kansas boys who stand out as the most numerous, most ef- fective members of the big journal- istic army on the firing line in Cleve- | land. Those most widely known to the nation who figure importantly in the convention are the wise and beloved William Allen White of the Emporia Gazette, a strong progressive influ- ence as Kansas member of the plat- form committee; former Governor- Senator Henry J. Allen of the Topeka State Journal, head of the Kansas delegation, who did important work on the Landon platform; and Sena- tor Arthur Capper of the Topeka) Capital and other Capper publica-! tions. x oe x Other Kansans on Job Charles H. Sessions, editor of the Topeka Capital, first “broke” the It was obviously no trivial matter that Senator Vandenberg of Michi- gan, presidential possibility, was whispering to Senator Gerald P. Nye when caught by the candid cameraman on the floor of the Republican national convention at Cleveland. CLERKS OF COURT —'\yups = pyews MEET HERE TODAY a Elect B. F.

SELFRIDGE FARMER DIES Dr. I. 8.

M. Hamil- | ton in the Landon campaign. The newspapermen who made the country “Landon-conscious” are still another set. Last October a small group met in Kansas City to organize a Landon movement. Present were Oscar 8. Stauffer, head of the Stauffer news- papers; John P. Harris, co-publisher with his brother Sidney of the Ottawa Herald, the Hutchinson Herald and News, and the Chanute Tribune; Fred Harris, his lawyer-uncle; Editor Fred W. Brinkerhoff of Stauffer's Pitts- burgh Headlight and Sun; and Roy Roberts and Lacey Haines of the big Kansas City Star. Stauffer became head of the Lan- don for President committee. As publisher of the Grand Island Daily Independent in Nebraska, the Mary- ville Daily Forum in Missouri, and the Shawnee Morning and Evening Star in Oklahoma, as well as three newspapers in Kansas—the Arkansas Daily Traveler at Arkansas City, the Pittsburgh Headlight and Sun, and the Daily Reporter of Independence— his influence spread well outside the State at the outset. ee © Ballyhoo Floods Country Among devices of the strategy board for promoting Landon was creation of the Kansas Daily Newspaper associa- tion, to serve as a clearing house for Landon information and propaganda. do Times became president of the as- sociation and he, Stauffer, and John Harris became a triumvirate of news- papermen who devoted most time and activity to the business of putting over Landon. Fred Brinkenhoff made many speeches. R. J. Laubengayer and Roy F. Bailey, publisher and editor of the Salina Journal, were especially valu- able through contacts with leaders of national farm organizations. Fred Seaton, son of Fay N. Seaton of the Manhattan Chronicle, served importantly as head of the Kansas Young Republicans. And among the great horde of edi- tors and publishers who thronged in to whoop for Landon at the conven- tion, giving one the impression that all the papers in Kansas were tem- Porarily being turned out by police reporters and office boys, were Man- aging Editor Arch W.

WHAT DOES JOHN Q.

Jamestown Ready to Fete American Legion Jamestown, N. D., June 11—(@)— Jamestown, its coat off and its sleeves rolled up, is prepared to entertain the largest group of veterans of the World War, together with the former service men’s relatives and friends, ever to gather at one point in the state when themselves, through the industry of the American College of Surgeons and lately the aid of the Pooh-Bah of the A.M. A. The Pooh-Bah did not name ‘names in his pot-boilers on the subject, but merely censured and deplored. the teachings of “a popular writer on medical subjects” who has “consti- tuted Nimself champion of the so-called injection method of treating rup- tures.” and I flatter myself that my aggressive competitor in the newspaper health column business means me. Once again Morris has led with his chin. I am quite content to leave the question to the judgment of the public and the judgment of those phy- sicians who are capable of thinking for themselves. The very fact that it seemed necessary to the great Pooh-Bah to attempt to combat the effects of my teachings on this matter is a good indication of the way the wind is blowing. He came at me in precisely the same manner when I beat him to it om the question of the modern treatment of infected tonsils not so many years ago—and today competent physicians everywhere provide diathermy extirpation of tonsils at least for patients who are not good risks for the old Spanish method. Closing his series of newspaper spiels on the ambulant treatment of hernia—a subject about which it is obvious he and his anonymous advisers know nothing—the busy boss of the American Meddlesome Association, with a comical air of wisdom, observes that “the writer for the public on mat- ters of bealth does best when he reflects established medical opinion, and when he avoids urging the adoption of new procedures that await confirma- tion of merits.” Whose confirmation? Why, the omniscient Pooh-Bah’s, of course. Being the highest court, the Pooh-Bah is not hampered by such restraint. If he imagines a new method is not better than the old, he jumps into the newspapers to say so, with all the weight of the Meddle- some Association and the One-Man health magazine behind him—and if any considerable portion of the profession doesn’t agree with the Pooh-Bah, he should wipe off that grin, for what can the poor old rank and file do about it? QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Blood Pressure Wish, to learn whether the blood pressure is higher on a warm than a cold day . (Mrs. M. C. K.) Answer—Normally the blood pressure is automatically adjusted by the vasomotor system so that it remains constant, just as the body temperature is regulated to remain constant irrespective of atmospheric or weather variations. Fear Twice I have failed to pass an examination because of a fear of the stethoscope. As soon as the doctor comes at me with the stethoscope my heart begins galloping, and he can’t pass me. Yet in a little while after- ward the heart is normal. How can I overcome this fear? It is all that keeps me out of a good position. (F. J. W.) Answer—I suggest you take the treatment which has overcome stage fright in many instances—a grain of quinine bisulphate three times a day | for a week or 10 days before the ordeal. Or ask your physician to give you |@ suitable sedative an hour before the examination. Hay Fever « Please repeat the advice you gave last year for hay fever and asthma sufferers... . (Mrs, R. H.) Answer—Send (3c) stamped envelope bearing your address and ask for monograph on hay fever or one on asthma. (Copyright, 1936, John F. Dille Co.)

The taxi stopped in front of one of Park avenue’s most imposing apartment houses, Gail's first impression when she entered the apartment was that she was stepping into a garden. Wherever she looked there were huge vases and baskets of flowers. Entering a large room where indirect lighting was unmarred by any visible fixtures, they found Mrs. Morton. “Oh,” she exclaimed as they approached, “I’m so glad you’ve come! Yes, Derek, this is the girl I want to know.” Fix- ing Gail with her sharp, dark eyes, she went on. “I don’t sup- Pose you went to the Ferrara Gal- “Well, that would be easy,|lery? wouldn't it?” she countered light- ly. “Think so?” Blue eyes held hers while he caught her hand in his. said. the big town?” “And so I will.
