A Good IMace to Start Among other charges made by AttorneyGenera! Ogden when tiling the lawyers of the state of deplorable conditions at Laiayette, was that there was “a line of crookedness” running through the prohibition an law enforcement agencies in northern Indiana. That might be a fine place to start an> official action which the attorney-general mav think should lollow. The prohibition anu law enforcement agencies in the northern part of the state are under the political control of the lead r of the party to which Mr. Ogden belongs. It has been an open secret that the jobs in these departments, from the the lowest, have been considered political patronage, to lie used in furthering senatorial ambitions and power. . . . If there is crookedness, it is because the political powers selected crooks to enforce the laws, have given jobs to the politically powerful and the morally weak, have named men who were thinking of partisan victories or personal gain instead of their oaths of officc* Certain it is that conditions in no county could become quite as openly corrupt as the ones described by Ogden without a certain amount of blindness on the part of federa officials. . , The record of the federal courts in northern Indiana in the matter of punishing election frauds is not such as to create any great amount of confidence in its efficiency. It may be remembered that nearly two years ago charges were made that voters were imported from Chicago to change the results of elections in Lake county and the state. One of those named in such charges wa3 a certain Fred Burke. Since that time Burke participated in the St. Valentine’s day massacre in Chicago, shot a policeman m Michigan and is now suspected of killing a Chicago reporter. It may also be remembered that finall> Lake county has convicted several persons for importations of voters for the last primary, but the federal courts caught none of those who used the same practices when federal officials were elected. Mr. Ogden can perform a very notable service if he very promptly exhibits the line of crookedness” in federal circles. There should be some agencies for law and ordei which can command respect. When confidence is lost in the federal government, anything can happen. ____ Liquidating the Age of Empire There is a passage In the play "Disraeli” in which that crafty statesman dramatically portrays the future of England in the 1870 s. She could go on as a little island off the coast of the European continent with a rich native culture. Or she could accept the challenge of the times and become an empire, with far-flung possessions that extended to the uttermost parts of the earth. „ . It was a choice between the -little Englanders and the apostles of imperial romance and adventure. The imperialists won. Disraeli secured control of the Sues canal enterprise, proclaimed Victoria empress of India, and set England firmly on the road to the second great period of imperial expansion. We ordinarily have tended to regard Disraelis achievement as a masterpiece of wisdom and adventure. but today we are facing a situation which raises grave doubts as to whether Cobden and the "little Englanders” were not the wisest after all. England was forced to undertake a bloody and expensive war at the close of the last century to hold the relatively unimportant possessions in South Africa. Imperial rivalry with Germany helped to bring her into the World war. Egypt brought her close to war after the great crusade for human liberty ended in 1919. India has been rumbling since the Armitsar massacre. The challenge to Britain is more ominous in IaJO than ever before. She can not let loose of India without seriously menacing her financial and economic structure. She can not hold India without using force on a scale which would make the Boer war appear like a skirmish. Are the advantages which England enjoys in India today, as a result of her imperial control, equal to the liabilities which she has incurred thereby? Did Disraeli lure Britain into a morass from which she can never extricate herself? These questions are dealt with in a penetrating article on the "Twilight of Empire.” by Nathaniel Peffer in Harpers Magazine. He shows how the example of Britain is India and Egypt and of the United States in the Philippines proves that we now are in a situation where we neither can recede nor go ahead without great cost. Investments are so heavy and vital that independence would jeopardize them and perhaps *he financial fabric of the nation as well. Yet the spir t of nationalism so lias fanned the demand for independence that control and possession can be maintained only at a fearful price—perhaps lar greater than the economic loss which freedom would entail. A Real Opportunity There isn't any reason that wc can see why a woman should not be a member of the President's cabinet. There may be a good many reasons, on the other hand, why a woman should be. We've heard it argued that a woman thus placed among the President's closest official advisers would add something to his understanding of the thoughts and desires of all the people. This view now is taken in campaign times. Both parties have national vice-chairmen who are women. The Republican and Democratic national committees are composed of women as well as men. Surely it won't be said that, in national affairs, women cease tc be useful after they have helped to gather in the votes. The question comes up Jn connection with a vacancy soon to occur in the cabinet. James J. Davis, secretary of labor, is retiring. Os all the persons sug-

gested to succeed him, it happens that the outstanding person is a woman—Miss Grace Abbott. Miss Abbott appears to have every qualification for the office. She has been in the department of labor for many years, being now head of the children's bureau of the department. She knows the department’s work in detail. She is an able, tactful, competent executive. Beyond this, she has a close acquaintance with and a deep understanding of the people the department is supposed to serve—the working people of the United States. She has been a serious student of labor problems all her life. It is hard to conceive that President Hoover will pass this opportunity by. Miss Abbott exemplifies the very type of expert that he was expected to utilize in government service. A let of nonsense is being written to the effect that since the labor organizations can not agree on a candidate for the post, the President perforce must choose someone from outside the labor ranks. On this false assumption—for organized labor has declared Its indorsement of Miss Abbott—it is being said that the President proposes to promote the present assistant secretary. The latter was a purely political appointment of an earlier administration. His only claim to the office apparently is that he represents the votes of a certain number of lodge brothers. We can not believe the President is likely to affront American labor in this manner. Prohibition Arrests The constantly increasing number of federal arrests for violation of the prohibition laws may mean that prohibition is being enforced more rigidly. Or it may mean that violations are becoming more numerous. Whatever the answer, the latest report of the treasury department shows that the enforcement problem is as difficult as ever. During the year ended June 30, 68,186 persons were arrested, which was 1,308 more than the year before. Stills seized numbered 24,373, compared to 17,146 the preceding year. In light of these figures and the Literary Digest and Scripps-Howard polls, statements like these ox Representative Cramton of Michigan and other Jrys that there is no important anti-prohibition sentiment in the country are little short of absurd. It is true, as Cramton said, that wets have made little progress in congress, but this Is because congress is dominated by the well-organized reform groups who have been able to inflict political punishment. Those 24,373 seized stills must have been turning out a lot of liquor, and they would not have been doing it if there was not a demand for it. And if that number were discovered, how many operated unmolested? By the same token, those 68.186 violators must have been handling and selling liquor that a thirsty public wanted to buy—to say nothing of the thousands arrested by state officers and other thousands who escaped apprehension.

Clearing It Up (From the New York World) Now wc seem in a fair wry to have this pivotal testimony of MacDonald's cleared up once for all. He himself has repeated Ws repudiation. In anew affidavit made in Baltimore he charges that a San Francisco police lieutenant carefully coached him in his lying testimony Judge Griffen, who presided at the Mooney trial, for years has been convinced that MacDonald perjured himself. He repeatedly has called attention to the fact that at the very time that MacDonald said he saw Mooney at the point where the bomb exploded, a photograph made by a music-company clerk showed Mooney ar.d his wife on a roof a mile and a quartet away. Governor Young just has said that the testimony of Franx Cxman, who also identified Mooney and Bil'ings. is “quite discredited.” It now remains to be established whether MacDonald lied in his original testimony as he and the defense assert, or lied in repud ating this testimony, as the justices contend. High praise is merited bj the Scripps-Howard publications for their work in finding MacDonald.

REASON By FR LANDIS*

SENATOR HENRY ALLEN declares that senatorial approval of the London pact "will meet with public approval throughout the country,” but the truth is that hardly anybody knows or cares anything about it one way or the other. * * a Had the senate been called to consider the length of skirts, the price of gas or the making of home brew, the country would have stood at attention, but a London naval pact is too remote. Never before has a thing of so little interest been the cause of a special session. b an It's too much to expect people to be interested in anything in hot weather, unless it be to find the coolest spot in the house or to check up on the movements of the relations to determine whether any of them threaten to come. b a u THE greatest forward step we've taken in America next to man's triumph over whiskers, is a woman's victory over "visiting.” They used to call it hospitality, but while it began with "H,” it was something else. BUB In the old days summer was a period of pit less devastation, whole families descending to spend six weeks, filling the front yard w r ith baggage and the hearts of their victims with gloom. BBS They came without warning, otherwise their diabolical purpose would have been thwarted. They would have been told that the family was just leaving for Abyssinia or that the children had the smallpox, so they came unannounced. BBS There was title real sentiment in the old-fash-ioned visiting, for the clans with unerring precision, checking up to keep even or get ahead, and while it was hard enough on the men, the real blow fell upon the women. B B B THOSE were the times of the old wood burner in the kitchen, when it was necessary to overheat the place in order to fry an egg. and visitors meant that the mothers and older sisters of that day had to grind into the sizzling countenance of a stove hour after hour in order to feed the invaders. B And a lot of them turkied on you when you tried to get back at them. We recall one convoy of appetites that despoiled our folks of no less than $50,000 worth of provisions, always working themselves up to righteous wrath because we didn't visit them, jet once when we decided to spend one short day with them, they sent word that they were without help and for us to detour. A lot of things these days could be improved, but you can sit on the front porch without fearing every time some fellow jams on his brakes that a bunch from a neighboring state are coming to be with you during dog days.

SCIENCE -BY DAVID DIETZ

Earth Would Bea Frozen Globe, Wandering in Sea of Darkness, Were It Not for the Sun. MODERN civilization depends upon the sun. That is a fact that we often lose sight of. Every one realizes, of course, that life itself depends upon the sun. For without the sun our earth would have neither heat nor light. It would be a frozen globe wandering in a sea of darkness. Our food supply likewise depends upon the sun, for without the sun plants would not grow. Plants build up the sugars and starches of their tissues out of the carbon dioxide of the air and the water of the soil. The energy for this manufacturing process Is furnished by the sunlight. The process is known as photosynthesis. But in addition, the aspects of present-day life which we group under the heading of modem civilization, are in particular the result of solar activity. Modern civilization is built upon the availability of power. It is sometimes called a machine civilization. But a machine civilization is a power civilization, since it takes power to make the machines go. Back of our electric lights, our electric street cars, our electric locomotives, our electric elevators and our countless electric machines is the "power house,” where the whirring turbines generate the electricity with the aid of coal, oil, or waterpower. u n a Coal COAL, oil, and water-power, the three sources of power today, are all the contribution of the sun. Photosynthesis, the process by which W'e get our food at present, is the process which built up our coal supplies. Someone once said that coal was fossil sunlight mat when we burned coal w r e were releasing the sunbeams that fell upon the earth millions of years ago. Millions of years ago a luxurious vegetation grew in certain areas of the earth’s surface. There were gigantic ferns, tall as trees, and similar plants. These plants grew in swampy areas. Their growth, it must be remembered, was due to the sun. These plants, like the plants of today, built up their tissues out of the carbon dioxide of the air and the water of the soil with the energy of sunlight. In time, the swamps in which these plants grew began to fill up with decaying vegetation. In time, this decaying, chiefly through the action of certain types of bacteria living in it, turned to peat. Incidentally, there are many peat bogs to be found in the world today and also many swamps in which the formation of peat is going on. Then with the passage of more centuries, the peat was buried under layers of sand and clay. Gradually other changes took place in the peat. The percentage of hydrogen and oxygen in the peat was decreased, bringing about a corresponding increase in the percentage of carbon. Thus in time, the peat was changed into coal.

Oil OIL can likewise be traced to its beginning with t'" process of photosynthesis. At one time many scientists believed that mineral oil or petroleum had an inorganic origin. This theory held that during the formation of the earth's surface rocks, hydrogen and carbon w ? ere brought together into various combinations under great pressure and heat and forced into various combinations. Petroleum is essentially hydrogen and carbon, what the chemist calls a hydrocarbon. But today more scientists are inclined to accept what is known as the organic theory of the origin of petroleum. This theory holds that the petroleum in the earth is the result of chemical changes in the remains of plant and animal life which inhabited the earth millions of years ago. According to this theory, petroleum was formed chiefly from minute plants and animals w’hich lived in swamps and the sea-bottom muds. Oils, therefore, started with plant growth which depended on photosynthesis. That water-power depends upon the sun is obvious, for water-power depends upon the weather cycle. The water of rivers comes from creeks which ir turn depend largely on the run-off of rains for their supply. We do not completely understand all the details of the weather. But it is obvious that '<■ has its beginnings in the heating effect of the sun on the earth’s atmosphere. The great air currents which are at the bottom of weather phenomena are started in this way. What is the origin of the name Izzard? It is a British family name and means son of Isolde, who was a well-known character at the court of King Arthur. The name Isolde is Celtic and means fair.

DAILY HEALTH SERVICE Gland Secretions Affect Hair Growth

BY DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor Journal of the American Medical Association and of Hytreia, the Health Magazine. RECENT investigations have revealed the intimate relationship between the functioning of the glands of the body and the hair. It has become apparent in the last twenty years that the skin and hair are influenced particularly by glandular secretions. Disturbances of the growth of the hair have been noted in both oversecretion and undersecretion of the thyroid gland. In cases in which the secretion is less than it should be, the hair is thin, dry and lusterless and may be prematurely gray. If such cases are given proper dosages of thyroid extract, the hair and the skin usually improve. In cases in which the secretion of the thyroid gland is too great, there are, in addition to the usual symptoms, in many instances thinning of the hair over the scalp and sometimes complete baldness.

IT SEEMS TO ME By

THE other day I was arguing in this column that big business does not run the government of the United States. I am not contending that every man has the same chance in the courts. It seems to me that he does not. It hardly would have been possible to convict any financial leader on the testimony which sent Billings and Mooney to jail. Indeed, no compliment is intended in the contention that such a thing as a real "business administration” is unknowm. In the first place, no highly successful man of affairs in my time ever has sat in the White House. One w'ould have to go back a long way to find such a President, probably George Washington would be the nearest approach, for Washington was one of the richest men in the community. But that was long before the development of an industrialized America. Hoover, of course, is a wealthy man and served large interests before he came into public life, but he never rated among the great business executives. His predecessors had no claim to business acumen. Harding w'as a country editor and Coolidgc a small tow-n lawyer. It is true that America prospered exceedingly during the Ccolidge era and there was a disposition upon the part of Republican orators to pretend that he actually had brought these boom times through his shrewd judgment. Coolidge has achieved this through overt acts. They liked him for what he did not do. He was of the non-meddling type. Instead of being elevated to a desk in some inner sanctum of a huge corporation Coolidge has found for himself a job as a newspaper columnist. That is good business and under the ex-President's syndicate arrangement undoubtedly profitable. But if he really were a commercial wizard, some concern easily could

(the President) shail have power, by j and with the advice and consent of j the senate, to make treaties, provided two-thirds of the senators j present concur.” The only thing ; that the house of representatives j can do is to refuse to pass appropriation bills or other laws necessary to carry some treaties into effect. When were the first payments on the government bonus or adjusted service certificates made? The law provided that cash payments should not be made before March 1, 1925. and the adjusted service certificates or bonus should be issued as soon after Jan. 1, 1925, as the application could be handled by the veterans’ bureau. How old is Julia Sanderson? Is she married? She is in her 43d year. She married Frank Crumit, July 1, 1927. What is the salary of Babe Ruth? 80,000 a year. What causes mildew on cloth? Mildew is a growth of some species of molds which frequently appear on fabrics that have been allowed to remain damp for a time.

Within the skull there is a little gland called the hypophysis or pituitary gland, w’hich is related closely to various disorders of growth and development. In case there is too much secretion of this gland, there is not infrequently pigmentation of the skin in various places and a considerable growth of superfluous hair. One investigator noticed particularly in women heavy growths of hair on the chest, and legs, and sometimes also on the face, associated with overaction of this gland. Several investigators have noticed this symptom in at least onefourth of 400 cases and they have added the fact that this additional hair is thick, wiry and oily. On the other hand, should the secretion of this gland be deficient, the skin is likely to be smooth, transparent, and free from moisture, and there is a tendency to lack of hair upon the body.

have bid even higher than any feature syndicate manager. a * tt Future Jobs HOOVER'S reputation forknowing the various ins and outs of trade rests partly on his services as secretary of commerce. He, too, profited in reputation by the coincidence of a bull market. Yet surely no one deeply versed in international economics can believe that a secretary of commerce, shrewd cr otherwise, can do anything of vital importance in helping or impairing a nation’s business. I venture to predict that w’hen Hoover’s term of office has ended there will be no mad scramble for his services upon the part of giant concerns. His opportunities will simmer down to an offer to become president of the national league and a chance to act as vice-president of a bank. In other w’ords, no board of directors would think of accepting the general run of men who become President. Federal government is big business, but it is not run by big business men. Possibly there has been a change of temper in recent years, but for the most part the electorate fights shy of intrusting the nation’s affairs to men w’hose experience has been in the more famous counting rooms.

’ ROMANOFF EXECUTIONS July 16

ON July 16, 1918. the czar of Russia and his family and their attendants officially were murdered in a house at Ekaterinburg, where they were held prisoners following the revolution. The first thought of executing the Romanoffs came when it was rumored that the monarchist groups were plotting to release them. With the growing anger of soldiers and sailers and workers toward the royal family, it was decided to dispose of them at once. The execution is described as follows by W. Duranty: “The Romanoff family were informed that they must move from the upper to the lower floor. All of them, the ex-Czar Nicholas Alexandrovich, his wife Alexandra Fedorovna, his son Alexei, daughters, Family Physician Botkin, the heirs, male nurse and the governess of the princesses went downstairs . . . where they were directed to stand against the wall. “Then the house commandant, Avdeev .. . read the death sentence. adding that their hopes of liberation were futile: all mast die. The unexpected news shocked the doomed ones, and only the ex-czar spoke, asking: “Then we won’t be taken anywhere?” Revolver shots put an end to the doomed ones. Only four persons were present who carried out the execution. About 1 a. m. the bodies were taken out to the forest . . . where they were burned the next day.”

In a recent review of the subject, Dr. Zola K. Cooper points out that in disorders of the suprarenal glands, the small organs above the kidney, which apparently have several different types of secretion, various changes may occur in the distribution of hair over the body, associated also with a tendency toward masculinity or femininity in either males or females, with some extremely surprising results. It long has been known that the glands act as an interlocking chain, the secretion of one gland affecting that of another. Overgrowth of hair is found in overfunction of several different glands, and the lack of hair found in underfunction of the same glands. The subejet just has begun to be studied, and undoubtedly adequate explanations for superfluous hair and for lack of hair will be found in the majority of cases when more evidence has been accumulated.

ble, presidential timber, but it remains to be seen whether the voters of the country ever could under any circumstances accept a man once closely Identified with the house of Morgan. n tt tt Wall Street IT still is easy to disqualify a candidate by shouting from the stump that he is a minion of Wall Street. Much energy is spent by congressmen in denouncing plaguing and making faces at Wall Street. The delusion still persists that the stock market is a sort of gambling den run for the pleasure of rich men and having no connection with the vital commercial life of the United States. This notion should be doomed to extinction. There has been abundant proof to the contrary. By now we ought to know that a sick stock market means a sick America and vice versa. The question of whether stock market slumps follow or create trade crises is as academic as a chicken and an egg discussion. All w’e need to know is that they are coincidental. There may have been a time when the unscrambling process was still possible. It seems to me that w'e have gone far beyond that time. Whether we like it or not, we must live by, and with big business. It is possible, and I think desirable, that big business shall pass increasingly under the control and then the ownership of the federal government. And if Utopia, or anything like it, lies in that direction, its coming only can be hastened and expedited by the encouragement of combinations and mergers. (Copyright. 1930. by The Times)

M. E. Trsr^ SAYS:

If We Americans Bragged. Less About Our Alleged Sense of Humor, We Might Have More Time to See tho Funny Side of Things. TWO good stories come out of Mexico. First, a citizen who has not been interfered with, though he married "ixteen women, is arrested when he '■laims to be a brother of the police chief. „ Second, a citizen granted "forty -icres and a mile.” under the new Agrarian law, plows up a pot of ’old worth $50,000. Who says that the Latin temperament Is without a sense of .mmor? If anv one thinks so. he should -ead the latest communique from General Sandino. the irrepressible savior of Nicaragua. General Sandino says that no lss than 300 American marines and Nicaraguan regulars have been killed by his followers in recent engagements, while 500 have been wounded. He also states that his followers have captured no less than 19,000 cartridges loaded with explosive bullets, and though he regrets to do so because of his humanitarian principles, he has been compelled to return those bullets, butt end first.

Static Stops Reds IF we Americans bragged less about our alleged sense of humor, we might have more time to see the funny side of things. Instead of going in for a heated argument over Mr. Root's proposal to establish a special police force for preventing red propaganda, we might try static, as the Russians have with such gratifying success, and as the Germans are planning to do. When the big station at Moscow begins to broadcast in Rumania, Bucharest clutters up the atmosphere with such a dose of snaps, cracks and burrs that no one can hear. Such method not only spolis the show, but always can be excused as purely accidental. Clever as they are in alibis, Russian propagandists should be first to get the humor of it. tt n Too Much Imagination WE are all taking ourselves too seriously in connection with this red rumpus. That is about the only reason that it may lead to serious results. Millions of people are mad, not because of what has occurred, but because of what they imagine will occur. If they keep on, it will. Meanwhile, Communism has led to little more outside of Russia than a word-slinging match, and we Americans have contributed our full quota. For every red tract or tirade circulated in this country, you can find a whole library of replies. The only disadvantage we suffer is that we can not get our stuff into Russia. tt tt Soviet Uses Muzzle THE Soviet has an effective way of muzzling criticism. We could copy it in this respect, and a good many Americans think w'e ought to. Indeed, the idea of using Soviet tactics to crush political opinion has become surprisingly popular in this country. 'What does Root’s suggestion amount to but a cheka for the United States? Every so often, Communists stage a parade with the idea of starting a fight, and we’re just fools enough to furnish the fight. If we’d let them alone, the strutting, banner-waving and yelling soon would lose its advertising value. There are not many Communists in this country. What there are couldn’t get anywhere if we didn't give them the chance to play at martyrdom so frequently. If we were really clever, we’d not only rope off the streets, but hire a hall, fill it —itr. nice, respectable people and let them talk. Yes, and we might send them flowers and provide drinking water. The breadth and depth of Russian propaganda is to be gauged by the way Moscow made use of last fall’s stock market crash and the present reason of unemployment in this country. From what has been said by Communist leaders and published in Communist newspapers, the average Russian would be justified in believing that we Americans are starving to death. The word depression has a different meaning here than It has in Russia, and no one knows it better than the Kremlin propagandists.
