By RODNEY DUTCHER (Tribune Washington Currespondent) Washington, Jan. 27.—Though the theme of the inaugural was Jackson- jan, the second administration of Franklin D. Roosevelt is likely to see 2, distinct bow made toward Jefferson, too. That will be made if not in legisla- tion and principles, at least in the be- ginning of the first real memorial to Jefferson the capital has ever had.

Blacklist Fargo bartenders are worrying these days lest they serve intoxicating liquor to someone on the Gate City blacklist and Fargo grocers are wondering whether it paid them to join in an effort to “gyp” the Cass county relief administration. Numerous names are on the Fargo blacklist because their owners cannot control their appetites and their failure to do so throws an unjustified burden upon the public. The result isa public effort to keep them in line. It is an adventure in eco- nomics as well as in social science. The reasons for it are obvious enough. When Fargo gro- cers joined with relief clients in attempting to circumvent the rules, they were attempting a fraud upon the people of Cass county just as surely as though they were trying to pass bogus checks. When liquor dealers sell intoxicants to habitual drunk- ards they are deliberately helping to impose hardships upon the drunkard’s family. In the early days of the relief effort, Bismack had a scandal somewhat similar to that involving the 27 Fargo grocers. The background for it and the system used were identical, but it was nipped in the bud and without publicity. The surprising thing is that the Fargo situation went as far as it did before corrective measures were applied. The situation inyolving drunkards is, perhaps, best illus- trated by an incident which occurred during the Open Your - Heart campaign conducted by the American Legion here during the Christmas season. One of the requests received was for a baby’s bed. Inves- tigation showed that the bed was badly needed, but it also dis- closed the fact that a suitable bed had been given the family less than a month before. What had happened to it? The answer is pitifully simple. The father of the house- hold had come home drunk and in an ugly temper. He was as good as any man but the world was against him. And:so he kicked the new crib across the room, breaking it beyond repair. The fact that his father was responsible for his NOT hav- ing a crib didn’t make that baby’s need for one less imperative. Yet if another were donated, might it not go the same way? The answer, of course, is to establish and promote sobriety by whatever means are at hand, for therein lies a way to a more responsible citizenry and lowered relief costs. Every social worker is familiar with the phenomenon of money needed for shoes going for drink—and the public has to buy the shoes, : anyway. Every Man a Hero seen the marble figure atop a tall pedestal. Some time during 1937, Congress ex- pects to begin spending up to $3,000,- 000 for a memorial to Jefferson which will be comparable to those which im- mortalize Washington and Lincoln. It will probably take the form of a Ro- man hall, with a great statue of Jef- ferson looking across to his native Vir- ginia. The location most favored is ad- joining the Tidal Basin, which is roughly between the White House and the Washington Monument. The hall might be built to include Jefferson relics and perhaps the library of 6,500 books which he sold to the Library of Congress after its collection was burned by the British in 1612. Rep. John J. Boylan, from New York City, is the moving spirit who has been pushing the Jefferson memorial project for the last 14 years. If it seems a long time, it might be remembered that it took Congress more than 100 years to get around to doing anything about a George Wash- ington memorial. And maybe the sec- ond administration of Franklin D, Roosevelt will prove as appropriate a time as any for setting up the first memorial to Jefferson.

This chronic in- fiammation is accompanied with more or less suppuration or pus formation the of the teeth. Not all & nutritional condition, that is to say it is Nutrition, as we docs use the term, means much more than proper food. It means the assimilatign (metabolism) of material whereby body tissue is built up or repaired and energy liberated. So you seé it includes digestion, absorp- tion, utilization or assimilation, excretion, in fact the works, After all, when @ physician finds that a child or adult is “poorly nourished” he doesn’t mean the patient doesn’t get enough to eat. Most victims of malnutrition get enough to eat, many eat too much. a. If it is true that pyorrhes is a nutritional disorder it does not follow that correction of the nutritional fault will cure pyorrhea. After the con- dition has progressed for any length of time there is inevitably more or less atrophy, wasting, shrinkage, degeneration or shrivelling of tissues, of course, with impairment or loss of function. Degeneration may be stopped, but re. generation is another matter. One can as reasonably expect to restore characteristics of youth to an individual whose hair has grown gray whose skin has become wrinkled as to restore normal teeth and gums pyorrhea has been allowed to exist for months or years. of doctor and dentor to insure Only in this way can the progress of pyorrhes be checked. The general health invariably suffers when pyorrhea exists. The prin- cipal reason for the of health is the nutritional deficiency soreness, tenderness, sponginess of the gums as well as looseness or perhaps loss of teeth tends to prevent. proper mastication of natural foods “}or to make the patient avoid healthful foods which ‘require much chewing in favor of less healthful ones which require little or no mastication, and this leads to digestive difficulties of various kinds and often to further nu- tritional deficiencies, as will be explained in another article. TO HAVE IS TO HOLD (Chicago Tribune) Sheppard: had considerately given warning several days in-advance, The dry senator boasts that he has been in Congress longer continuously than anyone else, having been elected in 1902, and succeeding his father, at that. 8o his annual prohibition speech has become a classic. The author of the 18th Amendment warned that the s0- cial ill effects of repeal are being ig- nored in the mad scramble for tax revenue, Senators might well have paid more attention to the veteran Sheppard than they did. For the prohibition move- ment is stirring very uneasily in the grave dug for it four years ago. ing for their theme that pro- hibition didn’t work last time because people hadn't been educated up to it, prohibitioners are launching a wide- spread campaign, bearing down on the social results of drink—drunken driv- ers, industrial inefficiency, ill health, and the like. And next month the Prohibition party will begin a definite political camp. looking toward 1940. Na- tional Chairman Edward E. Blake says the goal is to create a strong or- ganization in every state by entering pee in every state and local elec- in. The fact that D. Leigh Colvin got only a little more than 37,000 votes in the 1936 presidential election isn’t discouraging the drys a little bit. ing number of communities going dry Almost every man is a potential hero. For proof one needs only to match the stories which now are coming out of the flood-ravaged Ohio valley with the atti- tude which our own people have displayed under the effects of the drouth, a diametrically opposite sort of tragedy. Men have lost their lives in the Ohio valley trying to rescue others from the flood. Others have labored on under the most udverse circumstances, risking their lives to give service. Not one of them craved the opportunity to display the forti- tude which was in him, but when the test came he measured up to it. That, after all,'is the true measure of heroism. When a man ‘who is mortally afraid of the consequences walks ‘into the jaws of death because it is his duty, it is the highest kind of courage. . Such men exist everywhere in America, for great crises always bring them to the fore. The telephone girl sticks to her switchboard in the’ face of peril. The policeman remains steadfast before the guns of gangsters. The doctor imperils his health fighting the ravages of an epidemic. The newspaper- man risks his neck that the world may know what goes on. These and a thousand other things go on daily, adequate proof that every man has the elements of heroism within him- gelf, even though he shudders at the thought of being called upon to prove it. Good Neighbor Policy One of the current problems of American industry is how to remain on friendly terms with employes and at the same time retain control of their property. . The object is to get a day’s work for a day’s pay, retain the interest and loyalty of em- ployes and at the same time make sure that the appointed man- - agers rather than the employes are operating the business. In the light of the General Motors experience it isn’t as easy as it sounds. os ‘As intelligent an approach as any is that of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad company which has broadened its “good neighbor policy” to include employes as well as the public. The object of the new development is to “guide personnel relations in such a way as to inspire and maintain sympathetic -under- standing between the management and the body of employes.” If this leading railroad succeeds in this effort it will have @eveloped a formula useful in settling all kinds of trouble.’ “If we have a “sympathetic understanding” of the other fellow we usually find that he isn’t much different from our-, ~ gelves. Certainly he doesn’t have horns, hoofs and a tail. i “The Japanese dragon has three toes, the Chinese dr: .” Which is strange, as it is the latter's which always are stepped Sa Pe see Simile: ‘Ignored as completely as a university bacteriologist’ ips ; versity logist’s warning by local option.

Klein “Beemoven % Bonema" A HOPEFUL mother was serid- ing her boy of 4 to a piano teacher in Bohemia, while her angae8 ege8 British Board of Trade, is here on what he says is a holiday trip. He will be the White House guest of Presi- dent Roosevelt for the week-end, Just how much and what kind of business is to be included in the holiday has not been made known. Mr. Runciman has said that he is chiefly interested in improving Anglo-American trade. He told reporters in Boston, where he landed, that world security was the greatest need of the time, a statement of much truth. He was asked if Great Britain would make concessions to in- sure peace and would it consider Ger- many’s demand for return of colonies. Mr, Runciman replied that one couldn’t undertake to buy off trouble, that it was unsafe to bribe anybody to leave other people alone, and that pay- ing tribute meant paying more and more tribute. As to the colonies, he said: “Before the war these consti- tuted a smail part of Germany's for- eign trade and the return of all of them would not create a revolution in ‘German prosperity.” Germany's colonies are made to ap- pear in much international discussion as the one deprivation which rankles in the German mind and in that of the Nazi government. If the return of all of them will not create a revolution in German prosperity, it is probable that the return of all of them would not do an ihjury to any of the coun- tries which took possession according to the terms of a bad trouble-making They have their eyes on the increas- | peace. The matter would seem to be open to a very smooth and easy adjustment if nothing more than sentiment is in- volved. The present possessors, if pressed for other reasons, might say that it would be unfair to the natives to transfer them from a rule which is self-admittedly kind to one which would be reproached as at least aus- tere. The point of view has been ex- pressed before when moral grounds for self-interest have been sought. There is little proof that native good ever had much effect upon imperial- istic colonizing. The rule of self-in- terest, whether enlightened or other- wise, has prevailed. With the con- quest of Ethiopia nearly all of Africa has into the hands of the Euro- pean real estator. If redistribution of some of the holdings giving Germany back what was seized would ease the strain on Europe it woul seem a cheap price. The return might not do Ger- many any great economic good. That doesn’t seem to be the point in ques- tion. Hitler wants the colonies if only for the prestige of getting them back, and ‘after what he’s done to the treaty of Versailles in Europe, the return of Af- rican territory would seem to be @ small matter and it would be a volun- I SO THEY SAY f There is such strong feeling for peace everywhere that there is not a possibility of war.
