For Sniffles and Sneezes — Hot Lemonade
By BETTY BARCLAY
CANADA FACES BRIEF, INTENSE
Campaign Issues Await Clarification For Vote March 26 Ottawa, Out., Feb. 16. — In six weeks the election campaign, now scarcely underway, will be over and the electorate will decide one of the most complicated political pictures in Canadian history. The stunning effect of Prime Minister MacKenzie King’s action in dissolving Parliament only four hours and seven minutes after it had convened, so that he might call an immediate election, is only now beginning to wear off. The issues at stake, however, still need clarification, and, while waiting for this clarification the majority of the electors, a survey shows, have reserved judgment. Their final decision will only be known when the ballots are counted on March 26. The chief issue is the war. It will not be a question of whether Canada should, or should not, be in the war. That was decided by the unanimous vote of Parliament last Sept. 6. The moot point is whether the efforts of the MacKenzie King administration in its prosecution of the Avar, have satisfied the people or whether they want a speeding up of the w r ar effort and the responsibility of its prosecution placed in other hands. Ontario Voted Censure It was on Jan. 18 when Premier Mitchel F. Hepburn ended tw r o days of bitter- criticism in the Ontario legislature by moving a vote of censure (which was passed 4410) against Prime Minister King’s “so little’ war effort, that plans for an immediate appeal to the people first were discussed in the East Block. Premier King, in his brief explanation to a hostile opposition in Parliament, said that had the criticism remained the “personal” opinion of the leaders of the Ontario legislature he would have ignored it. But once that criticism became the “official” opinion of the largest province in Canada, he was forced to place the issue before the entire Dominion. Had the Oct. 25 election in Quebec showed that public opinion in that province was behind Maurice Duplessis and his stand against Canada's participation in the war, there is little doubt that King Avould have gone to the country then. o Md For Tomato Growers Will Be Given By State (Special to the Post-Democrat) Indianapolis, Ind., Feb. 16—Governor 'M. Clifford Townsend, today announced that he had found a way to advance $17,000 from a contingent fund to aid the tomato growers of the state in eradicating tomato blight. The Governor and the budget committee saved this $17,000 from contracts on state buildings, that is, bids were $17,000 under the Appropriations of the committee, and the money was placed in a public improvement contingent fund. Purdue University has appropriated $5,000 for construction of a greenhouse at the Agricultural Experiment station, and the money will be used in research and laboratory experiments to learn the cause of the tomato blight which has caused millions of dollars loss on Indiana crops The tomato industry in producing and canning in Indiana is regarded as an $83,000,000 industry, one of the largest in the state. It will be remembered that the liepublican members of the House cut out the appropriation asked for this purpose at the last session of the General Assembly. Tomato growers had asked for an appropriation of $10,000 annually for the bienniel period, but the Republican members turned thumbs down on the request. o Postoffice Job Under McKinley Still Retained Salina, Pa.—James Fennell still holds the job given him by President McKinley 43 years ago. It was in April, 1896, that Fennell, then a young man of 22, was named postmaster of Salina, after serving for a time as assistant postmaster. Since then, despite frequent changes in administration, he has been re-appointed every four years. Fennell has served under eight presidents— McKinley, Theodore Roosevelt, Taft, Wilson, Harding, Coolidge, Hoover and Franklin D |Roosev'elt. When Fennell first took up his duties as postmaster, there wefe only about 300 persons in the community, Today, he and an assistant, Miss Dorothy Stewart, have to look after mail for 1,200 citi. zens.
Honey In Millions Of Pounds
San Francisco—A sweet story is told in the state’s statistics for honey production in 1939. The total production for the year of tk£ 3,000 bee cplonieg in Jb® state was 10,255,000 pounds.
When Grandma prescribed hot lemonade for Grandpa’s sniffles and sneezes, it was even then an old fashioned remedy. Nobody knew the “reason why.” Today lemons are just as effective as ever in treating the common cold, and their prescription continues with the approval of modern medicine. At this time of year when colds and “flu” are prevalent, hot lemonade is “tops” on the drink list in many a home. Ever since Wu Lai wrote his "Lemon Hot Water Song” away back in the 13th century when the Yuan dynasty ruled China, folks have been drinking hot lemonade. But whereas the ancient Chinese boiled their lemon juice with sugar or honey to make what they called “She-li-pie,” up-and-coming lemonade mixers today use fresh lemon juice, just as it is expressed from the lemons. For the vitamins which are potent elements in lemon juice lose some of their health value when cooked. Today people know — thanks to research workers — that it is better to pour boiling water on fresh lemon juice to make hot lemonade. The wise housewife chooses clean-skinned fruit of fair size.
Pueblo, Colo.—You can take it for what it’s worth as a commentary on American humor, but a patient at the Colorado State insan asylum contends that “to be a good gag writer, you should be in a mental hospital.” He proves it by selling ideas for cartoons and jokes to national magazines. So, some of those laughs you’ve been getting lately might have been inspired by a former newspaperman who hospital authorities said was suffering from acute alcoholism. Physicians at the state hospital for the insane said the man, whose name w as withheld, is an example of rehabilitation and successful treatment possible in American asylums. They said the 35-yeav-old writer “cracked up” mentally when he began the excessive use of alcohol in what he said he thought was necessary to “make the great American effort.” The patient has written one

since this is the greater economy in the end. Larger fruit gives more juice and clean skin assures good quality. For one glass of hot lemonade, take one lemon — two is better.

Arter receiving treatment here for a time, he resumed his writing, using a postoffice bo'x address so that persons throughout the United States with whom he made contact would 'not know him to be a patient in a mental institution. 'Doctors said he regularly writes 1,000 words a day on his novels. His gag-writing business so far has been the most profitable, they said, selling his ideas to magazines and cartoonists. Attendants said be often prepares 20 gags a day which may net two or three sales of $3 to $10 each. “To be a good gag writer, you should be in a mental hospital,” the patient was quoted as saying. “It might be a derogatory remark about this nation’s humor—but the editors don’t know I’m here. They probably wouldn’t understand and might not accept my stuff.”

TEXAS TO BUILD 7 MILLION PARK
“Do Not Open” For 6,000 Years
'Aliueral Wells, Tex. — Designed to be one ot Texas’ greatest vacation spots, a $7,KUO,Out) park along tne Brazos river above Rossum Kingdom uam is to be built during tne next five years. The Brazos River Conservation and Reclamation District, charged with improving the river for flood control and power development, has deeded 3,3ou acres of land to the state park ooaru. The park board lias agreed to spend $7,000,000 in developing tiie property within the next live years. The property deeded to the park board is situated northwest ot Possum Kingdom dam, which is under construction in Palo Pinto county on a bend in the Brazos river. The park will be located on both sides of the river, above the Jake created by the dam The site is about 30 miies from here and a similar distance from Breckenridge and Graham. Russell Whatley of Mineral Wells, a director of the Brazos River District, said that plans already submitted for the park include construction of recreational centers, clubhouses, boathouses, swimming pools, tourist cottages, sceliic roads and picnic sites. Two camps oi CCC workers will be established to help construct the park, and the National Park Service and Department of Interior is aiding in plans for the pro-
ject.
Some local officials have estimated that the park will attract 750,000 local visitors and tourists each year when it is completed. Work on Possum Kingdom dam probably will be completed this year. Several towns have voted bonds for building auxiliary dams, to increase municipal water supplies. Throckmorton will build a $55,000 dam this spring and Anson, Tex., has approved a $115,000 bond issue for similar work. Gambling Goes Before Arizona Voters in 1940
Phoenix, Ariz.—Arizona voters, with an eye to lucrative returns in the neighboring state of Nevada, will be afforded h chance to legalize gambling in tho iziO general
election.
The bill to permit gambling has been introduced in initiative form by Rep Dr. Nelson D. Bray ton of the state legislature and specifies that all revenue from the games must go to the State Social Security Board and to county and municipal governments. Dr. Brayton charged that despite thousands of dollars spent annually in an effort to prohibit gambling, “it stlil flourishes and always will.” Revenue from legalized gambling, he said, would have a favorable effect on the state tax rate, which is now the highest in history at $1.25 per $100 assessed evaluation. In the stale of Nevada, where gambling is controlled by law, there are no excise taxes such as those we have in Arizona. Neither are there sales and luxury taxes, and the property tax is low,” Dr. Brayton said. A similar proposal which Brayton introduced in the 1937 state legislature passed the lower house o

Gives Delaware County’s Commercial Field Rating
Secretary of Commerce Harry L. Hopkins made public today two reports analyzing economic trends in Delaware County, Ind , as compared ivith those in other manufacturing localities throughout the country These studies deal with the manufactures and the expenditure for raw materials, fuel, and power used in the production of these rnairufactures in the county during the period from 1929 to 1937. In 1937, the county ranked 128th in the value of manufactures produced, amounting to $82,300,005 and 137th in money spent for manufacturing necessities, totalling $40,494,851 as compared withl the rest of the nation’s 3070 counties, Secretary Hopkins said, were the second in a series to assist distributors and manufacturers in marketing their products more effectively and efficiently by giving them a key to consumer and industrial purchasing power and tracing trends in the various coun-
ties.
Based on an analysis made by the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce of the biennial census of manufactures, the reports show comparative figures for 1929, the peak prosperity year; 1933, the turning point of the depression; and 1937, the latest year for which figures are available and whose tabulation was recently completed. The census of manufactures for the calendar year 1939 began January 2, and is still in progress. Delaware County’s position in the value of manufactured articles produced in 1929 was ' unranked out of the 3,070 counties of the nation, with manufactures valued at $70,581,563. In the same year, the county stood unranked in the amount spent for materials, fuel, and power, which aggregated $34,388,724. In 1933, the county's total value of manufactures was $31,485,495, or 55.4 percent less than in 1929. Money spent for materials, fuel, and power during 1933 totaled $14,116,688 or 58.9 percent less than in 1929. The reports show that the value of products manufactured in the county during 1937 rose 16.6 per cent as compared with 1929 and that money spent for raw materials, fuel, and power rose 17.8 per cent as compared with 1929. From 1933 to 1937, the value of manufactured products rose 161.4 per cent to place the county 128th in the nation with its above-mention-ed 1937 total, while the amount of money expended for manufacturing necessities rose 186.9 per cent to give the county 137th position. Regarding the country as a whole, the reports show: 1 That 25 per cent of the total value of manufactures in the United States, or $15,350,767,000, was concentrated in 8 counties—in the order of their ranking, Cook County, 111 (Chicago); Wayne County, Mich., (Detroit); New York County, N. Y.; Philadelphia County, Pa.; Los Angeles County, Calif.; Allegheny County, Pa., (Pittsburgh); Cuyahoga County, Ohio, (Cleveland)t and Erie County, N. Y. (Buffalo). A second group of 34 counties produced manufactures valued at another $15,000,000,000 for a second 25 per cent of the national total; a third 25 per cent ■Avas conjf::enhraj,ed in 125' Uther counties, and the remainder was scattered through 2,777 counties. There were 126 counties having no manufacturing establishments in 1937. 2. That 8 counties in the United States spent almost $9,000,000,000, or 25 per cent of the national total for raw materials, fuel and power for manufactures in 1937. These counties were Wayne, .Mich.; Cook, 111.; New York, N. Y ; Philadelphia, Pa ; Los Angeles, Calif.; Allegheny, Pa.; Cuyahoga, Ghio, and Lake, Indiana. Another 25 per cent was spent in 34 other counties, a third in another 130 comities, and the remainder was spent in 2,772 counties scattered throughout the country. 3. That while 7 of the 8 counties in Group One in 1937 were still below their 1929 levels in the value of products—the exception being Wayne, Mich.,—all 8 counties showed impressive progress as compared with 1933. Six of the 8 counties more than doubled the value of their produces in this period, and Wayne County showed the extraordinary increase of 170.5 per cent. 4. That while the amount spent for raw materials, fuel and power by the 8 counties in Group One decreased in every case by 50 per cent or more between 1929 and
1-933, six of the eight more than doubled their purchases of manufacturing necessities between 1933 and 1937. Wayne County, 'Mich., increased its purchases 193.9 per cent between 1933 and 1937 Moreover, Wayne, Los Angeles, and Lake Counties spent more for nece'ssities in 1937 than in 1929. 5. Thirty-three of the 34 counties in Group Two reduced spending for supplies from IS to 69 per cent between 1929 and 1933, but all 34 increased spending from 53 to 196 per cent between 1933 and 1937. Sixteen of the 34 more than doubled their 1933 expenditures for materials, and 9 of the 34 were above their 1929 level of expenditures Two more studies are being prepared. One covers the number of manufacturing establishm e n t s maintained in the principal manufacturing counties. The other shows the concentration of wage earners by counties. EMOTIONAL LINK TO ILLS TRACED Cleveland, O. — Emotional disturbances such as jealousy, inferiority oi 1 general mal-adjustment are ofte 1 responsible for serious cases of heart palpitation, headache, stomach trouble or fainting spells, the St. Luke’s hospital neuro-psychiatric clinic here has found from studies of case histories. The discovery that persons with bodies in perfect order could suffer serious physical disturbances from mental causes alone, was made by clinic psychiatrists after doctors had been confounded by patients with sincere complaints who exhibited no physical disor-
ders.
One woman, for instance, lost consciousness frequently. Investigations showed that her fainting spells invariably followed sharp verbal attacks'by her husband in which he satirized her intelligence. The fainting, which was becoming cause for alarm, ended promptly when the husband was advised of its cause. Cases of stomach ailment in the clinic have been traced to frustration, unhappy marriage, debt worries and unemployinent. Heart palpitation has been linked to jealousy in a number of
cases.
o CO-OP GROCERY OUTS MELON San Francisco—Hunter’s Point Cooperative, which has been operating a grocery for six months, is doing ail right. At its first annual meeting, the cooperative declared a dividend of 72 per cent on paid-in capital. After setting aside reserves of 25 per cent, and a 5 per cent advertising fund, the remainder wiU he distributed to all customers of record.
