It still has $2,000,000,000 to lend. While cau- , is always commendable, but unwar- - ranted caution is fear, and that’s the bete noir President Roosevelt warned against. Huey Long claims that he and his | henchmen reduced the death rate in New | “Orleans: from 4.1 to 2.7 per cent, He says | nothing about increasing the population! as did a certain Florida politician, who | made the boast that since he was in office | the population “had increased more than} 40. per cent., to which his opponent replied | laconically: es a man.” _~ How the old adages are falling by the | wayside. A penny Saved is a penny made. —-No hoarding, please. Competition is the life of trade—A code with fixed prices.’ In the old days when a man labored hard | and jong, he was pointed out as a paragon! to,emulate. Now if you work long honrs, | you are keeping someone from a job. Per-} haps we have been on the wrong track, lo, these thousands of years—a change of! offer a new course in thinking. Probably to |A#™ | train recruits for the brain trust, course may lead us right, A REVIVED INDUSTRY It will be of interest to many to know’ something of the results which have’ fol- lowed the legalization of 3.2 percent beer by Congress on April 7. Official reports have been made public covering figures only to the end of August, but these show a consumption far in excess of what the hrewers themselves expected, according to the secretary of their national association. It was announced that between April 7 and August 31 the Federal heer tax rey- enue collected had reached $71,177,539, or approximately two thirds of what gov- ernment officials had estimated would be received in a whole year. The first official figures respecting | ; the revenue derived by the states, in ad- | dition to the federal tax, showed that $ $5,-| 803,209 had been collected by the 22 states which had legalized beer up-to the end of | June. These figures do not include the millions of dollars received by counties, cities and towns in local sales taxes and licenses from wholesale and retail distri- butors. i It is estimated that the revived brew- ing industry now employs about 80,000 workers directly, with a payroll of at least a million dollars a month, Many other thousands have been employed indirectly by factories supplying barrels, bottles, box- es and other supplies, while vast sums have gone to farmers for grain used in beer man- | ufacture. This revival of the brewing industry | has no doubt caused a corresponding de- crease in the consumption of bootleg liquor, which not only pays no taxes, but is highly | detrimental to those who drink it. CHINESE MEDICINE In a magazine article James W. Ben nett, former American vice-consul in China, tells of some wonderful “medicines” con- cocted and dispensed by native Chinese. He tells of a prosperous pharmacy in Hangchow which keeps a herd of deer, whose carcasses are converted into all-heal- ing pills as needed. Powdered and mould- ed into pellets, various parts of the deer are prescribed for various diseases, \ Fevers are treated by pills made from the hoof; those made from the antlers are said to give strength to the weak; those compounded from parts of the animal, in- eluding the hide, are guaranteed to cure any ailment under the sun. Deer are not the only contributors to Chinese curative agencies. A gout rem- edy is prepared from bear paws; a prevent- ive of leprosy is derived from the baked brains of a human infant; dissicated liz- ards, snakes and centipedes, mixed with honey were highly recommended for inter- | nal disorders; the powdered: heart of a tiger was said to give great courage to thosé¢ who partook of it. Most efticacious of all in this respect, however, were pills made from the heart of a daring bandit, advertised thus: IF “The famous bandit Ah Tsong is no more. Should you not like to eat of the heart of the brigand Ah Tsong and hence- forth fear no man? Come with surpris- ing promptness, for only three of these pills are in existence.” AUTO POWER BY RADIO . Another prediction which may sound fantastic was made some time ago, to the effect that we shall in a few years have au- tomobiles that will run without fuel, the motive power being supplied from a cen- tral station by radio, The idea is advanced, not by a crank or visionary, but no less authority than G. M. Williams, president of the Marion com- pany, who declares that such a plan is re- eeiving serious consideration by leading | automotive engineers, According: to this each plan, car would have a certain receiving wave-length |, and by throwing the switch a generator of | corresponding wave-length in the central station would supply the power. } station would supply the power. Many | ears might have the same wave-length, 80 | long as the total load could be carried by { the corresponding generator. | We do not vouch for the practicability | | of his suggestion, but only pass it on as an | indication of what may happen. In any event it illustrates the daring conceptions ; of the modern engineer, say that the idea may not some day be} made to work?
