Menace to Civilization The airplane bombings of Madrid ought to make it per- fectly clear, by now, that that kind of warfare is an ugly, in- human, and unrelieved throwback to absolute savagery. No plea of military necessity can excuse this long-con- tinued bombardment of a populous city. The military mind which demands such measures is the sort of mind that sees in every bed-ridden cripple, every baby in arms, every housewife, and every school child an enemy as important as the soldier at the front. For it is obvious that when an army showers flame and explosives on a city, as the rebel army has been showering them on Madrid, it is out to break, by any means, the populace’s will to resistance. MILLIONS WILL BE EXPENDED BY GN. - ON IMPROVEMENTS President Forecasts Profit and Expectation of Increas- ing Business St. Paul, Nov. 27.—(7)—W. P. Ken- ney, president of the Great Northern railway, Friday announced details of & $30,000,000 improvement and main- tenance program for 1937, based on expectations of a continued rise in general business. Rebuilding, in the company’s shops, of 11,000 freight cars, air conditioning of passenger equipment and purchase of new equipment are included in the program. . Kenney predicted the railroad will finish this year with a net profit above interest payments, and fore- cast a business increase in the road’s . | territory for 1937. New car purchases, he said, will in- clude 500 ore cars, 500 steel gondola cars for coal and like commodities, 1,000 boxcars and 12 coaches of the newest and most modern type. The company’s shops’ will be too busy re- building boxcars to build any of this equipment, he said. The freight cars will be rebuilt at @ cost of $2,750,000, half of which will go for labor, to conform to a recent ruling requiring “side frame” trucks instead of the “arch bar” trucks now in_ wide use. Kenney also said he considered prospects “bright” for relief under the section of the interstate commerce act which makes it illegal for rail- roads to quote through rates to the Pacific coast lower than the sum of corresponding rates to intermediate points. . “This entire inland territory 1s be-, ing penalized because we have not To that end it can count the murder of an infant, the burn- Ing of a hospital full of expectant mothers, or the destruction of a school building and its pupils as an achievement equal to the capture of a trench or the destruction of an airdrome. ses © 8 8 It may be that this frightful philosophy can exist only in a bitter civil war, where to the ordinary brutality of war there igs added a fierce personal hatred, a bias which makes the op- position look like fiends against whom any form of frightful- ness is permissible. But even there the excuse is a poor one. For warfare of this kind is the fruit of a mental attitude which can have no place in a world calling itself civilized. The mere existence of armies and governments which can fight in this way is a threat to the well-being of the entire world. There has been a good deal of talk about the “‘collapse of civilization” which another war would bring. That collapse would not come through the physical destruction of towns, fac- tories, and transportation systems, or through the mere total of violent deaths. It would come through this resort to bar- barism, of which the assault on Madrid is so glaring an example. For a world which fights like this is not civilized. It is on a level with the. ancient world in which Assyrian armies put the inhabitants to the sword after capturing a city. The only difference would be that the modern world put them to the sword before capturing the city, not afterward. sess ts # And beyond al! that—how insane this rebel procedure is, anyway! The rebels hope to govern Spain, some day. Madrid is Spain’s greatest city. How can they hope to get anything remotely resembling loyalty, or even tolerance, from a city they have repeatedly bombed? Human memories are not so short as all that. The war in Spain may end in rebel victory, and it may not. ‘That, at the moment, is not the point. The point is that a savagery has been loosed which, if not disavowed and discarded by the conscience of mankind, means the beginning of the end of European civilization. ¢ League Shame ‘A year from the day on which sanctions against it were imposed, Italy observed a day of “ignominy and iniquity.” In the Italian viewpoint, the ignominy and iniquity were ghared by the rest of the world when 52 members of the League of Nations’ assembly attempted to punish Italy for aggression against Ethiopia. When sanctions went into effect, Mussolini, angered, nee the action as “a shame against the mother of civiliza- on. But many other people throughout the world hold the league guilty of a sin against civilization itself, and for a reason entirely the opposite of Mussolini’s. For by rescinding sanc- tions, the league abandoned an opportunity to learn whether ‘war could be disccuraged through the co-operation of pacific nations, a lesson that might at last have led the world toward the ways of peace, ; A Bow to Britain Some very weird tales used to emanate from Winsted, Conn., but it appears that these things are done better in the British Isles, Frequently we hear that a camel-humped sea serpent has reared its ugly head in some Scottish loch or other. Now comes the story of the “talking mongoose of the Isle of Man,” which caused such a stir that it was discussed even in Parliament. The remarkable Manx creature in question, which never seems to be around when reporters call, is said to speak English, Russian, Hebrew, and other tongues, and to sing Spanish songs. Those who had thought “kidding the public” was an ex- clusive Yankee trait will bow in admiration of this British effort —unlegs, to be sure, there is such a linguistic animal. Tugwell no longer is directing RA. Dora wonders if they've named a new cheerleader. “A young Italian has learned how to increase his blood pressure by a mental effort.” Others have to listen to an Il Duce balcony speech. “A general tightening will stop chatter in the back of a car.” Another method is to leave the wife home.

It was the sec- ond stop of the Vargas ident’s voyage to the inter-Amer- peace conference at Buenos Cruiser Salutes Vargas The cruiser Indianapolis, carrying the presidential party, boomed a 21- gun salute in honor of President Var- gas of Brazil. Brazilian guns on the Cobras island naval base responded with a salute for the chief executive of the United States. Twelve of Brazil's 16 warships were lined up in the harbor with their crews standing at attention as the United States vessel glided between Sugar Loaf mountain and Santa Cruz fortress. As the Indianapolis approached Maus pier, 6,000 school children sang the “Star Spangled Banner.” The two presidents entered an of- fielal automobile and started for the tesidence several miles away which Mr. Roosevelt was invited to occupy during his 12-hour stay here. Soldiers Line Streets They drove through a double-line of helmeted soldiers, who saluted them with rifles at “present arms.” Twelve military bands, stationed at various points along the route, played the national anthems of the United States and Brazil. : Crowds of the city’s residents were massed the military lines, cheering the two chief executives.

Har- old G. Hoffman of New Jersey, eight months after the electrocution of Bruno Richard Hauptmann for the killing of the kidnaped Lindbergh baby, said Friday: “I still wish there had been some way to keep Hauptmann alive.” He declined to discuss further in- vestigation of the Lindbergh kidnap- ing or possible developments since Hauptmann’s death, but in an inter- view said, “by no means am I con- vinced that the Lindbergh crime bas been completely solved.” “I have never had any illusions, however,” he sald, “about the difficul- ties of clearing up the case. ... There 4s no doubt in my mind that it will be hard to get to the bottom of the Lindbergh case. “I never had any desire to shield Hauptmann, but I believe that the ends of justice were hampered by let- ting him die.” For perhaps the first time since early last April when Hauptmann died, the governor discussed his rea- sons for failing to intervene. He had granted one reprieve but refused a second. . “I was and am convinced,” the gov- ernor said, “that I did not have the constitutional authority to grant a second reprieve.” EXHIBITING STARK WHEAT AT CHICAGO Only three specimens of grain from the Missouri Slope area are included Dakota exhibits being shown this week at the International Livestock, Hay and Grain Exposition at Chicago.

Like epileysy and asthma, angina pectoris is a functional malady the seizures or attacks of which are characteristic enough to enable the physt- cian to diagnose the trouble, but in the intervals presents no definite or- ganic change by which the pathologist may recognize the disease. Partial occlusion or restriction of the cornoary arteries (which blood to the heart muscle or wall itself) from arteriosclerosis is ly the primary factor of angina pectoris. The immediate cause of the attack, however, is undoubtedly asphyxia, anoxemia, insufficient oxygen supply to the heart muscle; insufficient, that is, to meet an emergency demand under emotional strain or some slight overexertion, The first remedy for the emergency attack or threat or fear of impend- ing attack of angina pectoris is immediate cessation of strain, effort or exer- tion. Come to a complete standstill wherever the seizure ay Dootrey and sit aq Nitroglycerin (trinitrin, glonoin, glyceryl nitrate) is the best emergency remedy for the attack of angina pectoris, The patient may carry always in pocket a small vial of nitroglycerin tablets and take a tablet whenever he be- lieves an attack impends, Nitroglycerin is volatile and loses strength if exe posed to the air, but a dozen tablets in a stoppered vial will retain their potency for several weeks. The tablet dissolved in the mouth produces its characteristic effect on the circulation within two or three minutes, Nitro- glycerin is not a heart stimulant at all; it merely relaxes spasm of the ar- terioles or smallest arteries, and frees the circulation from restriction. When the patient takes sufficient nitroglycerin to have this effect he usually no- tices some throbbing in the head and flushing of the face for a few moments, The effect of nitroglycerin is prompt and of short duration—it lasts only an hour or two, Consequently the dose is usually repeated every few hours, where more lasting effect is required. A moderate dose is 1/200th (one-two- hundreth) of a grain; though many patients take tablets containing one one-hundredth of a grain of nitroglycerin.

Sh. 0; N Copyright by Mabel Osgood Wright SYNOPSIS Christmas of 1913 is only elght days away. Ira Vance and his wife are wait- ing wistfully for a reply to their letter inviting their son, Emery, his wife, Elea- nor, and their children, Tommy, eight, and Bess, five, to the House in the Glen for Christmas. Emery, a self-made ex- ecutive in a big city, has not been home in'five years. The elder Vance, made in- firm by business dent, works o reverses ard an acci- 1 hunger bred of loneliness on her face, The maid returns without a special delivery letters, one ry hinting that at last he has in- xd something successful, one to Elea- nor urging “her to come, afd ote to little Tommy and Bess. Mrs. Vance's first letter has lain unopened on Emery’s desk, but Kitty Mack, his secretary, brings it to-his attention along with another personal letter. He opens the latter, finding it is from a, boyhood friend, Philip Knox, who says he is sending a friend, Dr. Amunde, to visit the Vances’ home at Christmas. Emery is annoyed. At lunch, he sees a news item about the meeting of his company’s directors, indieating there is dissatistac- tion with his management. Then he over- hears two of the directors, lunching nearby, discussing his one-man dicta- torial management disparagingly. Back the office he reads his mother's sec- ond letter. Absorbed in work he looks up and sees a man standing opposite him ‘I am The Stranger sent to your gate.” Vance is surprised to find he is friendly to The Stranger. CHAPTER 1l—Continued. io “Does not for what they stand appeal to you? Stop a moment now ‘and look.” “T’ve never had the time to waste in dreaming,’ said Vance, with an eccent of irritation. “Stopping is often the only way to win,” said The Stranger, turn- ing slowly from the window and speaking earnestly. “Once we were traveling through the Mojave des- ert; it had been an exhausting day in which a sudden windstorm had halted us, Evening, sullen and star- less, drew on and the exhausted train had not found the water hole that would make camping and rest possible. A halfbreed who had gone on in search of water, mounted on @ pony as mobile himself, re- turned swiftly, a dusky winged shape, like a low-flying cwl. Drop- ping from his horse to where we ‘were grouped, he squatted, motion- less. Too dumb even to,think we waited in a silent circle. “A tew minutes later the Indian pony whinnied, and with dilated nostrils sniffed the air and then the baked ground, while the rider, again upon his feet, strode to some bushes. close at hand, by which the pony was pawing at the ground. There before him was the spring-hole, the one thing needful, which, had he not stopped, we should have passed to our destruction.”” As The Stranger paused, he read the impatience at the interruption word. “As I have your rightful day’s work is done,” ly. I do not wish or ask for enter- tainment; I have not come here to look for the spirit of Christmas and then forget me!”” The Stranger at the Gate By MABEL OSGOOD WRIGHT (Copyright 1936, John F.

The answer is the same as ever, Miss Mack. Hess left, because, having tried to knock me down and merely missing it by an accident, there was nothing else left for him to do. Technically, he was not discharged, because he did not wait for that formality. As a matter of’ course I do not know his addres: Again becoming absorbed in his letters, Vance wrote on steadily and rapidly until finally halted by a question that was twice repeated before he heard and comprehended. Looking up he saw The Stranger leaning forfvard, as he stood with his palms upon the desk top. “Why did Hess wish to knock you down?”” ‘The words were spoken in a tone sonal, that it seemed to Vance as 5 ra in Vance’s face that he might not]if they came not from sound but|followed a few before | thought, consequently he was equal- motion that he demanded.” d he been promisec. this’ “Did he understand this?” sorbed in his papers.

I do not know where he i Vance gave a sigh that was half a groan of protest, raising his hand as if to ward off a mental blow, as he spoke. He was angry at the intrusion .of The Stranger, anxious to be rid of him, and yet, when he tried to find words to bring the situation to an end, speech failed him, Then he asked bluntly: “How is it that you criticize me so calmly, who am a stranger to you? What is your nationality, your standard? Where were you born?” “Does it matter where I first sew countries and the Truth is the same in all languages?” “Special delivery,” said Kitty, and the formality of being an- nounced.
