It Seems to Me Htwid BROUN IT hxa seemed to me that Frank F. Me mam's threat to American democracy as we have known it does not lie wholly in his personality nor in the campaign method which he has pursued in the state of California. I fear the effect which victory would have upon his followers if Sinclair is defeated. Already California has manifested a willingness to indulge in vigilante tyranny. The mere fact that Mernam is a 5 or 6 to 1 favorite already has emboldened that portion of his following which is frankly Fascist into very sweeping and

swaggering statements. It is difficult to see Just what group will be powerful enough to prevent the excesses which are already indicated. If Mcmam wins 111 lay a good deal more than 5 to 1 that liberals as well as radicals will feel the last of oppression. It is true that a number of prominent citizens who insist that they are convinced liberals supported somewhat belatedly the Republican candidate. I even have heard some of them argue that economic reform ran be achieved only by electing a man who is pledged to reaction.

This is a little difficult to follow. You can get ahead, these gentleman say, only by running rapidly in the wrong direction. I suppose that the liberals are trying to say that Mcmam is such a duffer that he is incapable of doing anything either good or bad. B it I fear that these well-meaning gentlemen have ht of the powers which control Frank F. Mernam forces are in no wav feeble. It is no accident that the Republican candidate is a puppet. a a a The Dissenter Drive Is On Richard washburn child of the Hearst papers is calling for a drive on all dissenters. In an article yesterday he wrote: "The red may pin on any label—Communist, Socialist or any other label. He is still a red. Distinctions be hanged ” Earlier in the same article Mr. Child condemned with equal severity, "The pinks and cerises and magentas and rose tints.” To be sure he adds as a sort of cynical afterthought. 'lf there is anything in the world Americans stand for, it is liberty and freedom of speech.” California, swept by the Fascist fervor which has been built up through every’ avenue of publicity, is likely to follow Mr. Child’s advice to hang, among other things, all distinctions. Under this there is no patriot except the out and out black shirt. Mr. Child is in favor of a general policy of fingerprinting and identification cards "To give service and protection to honest men.” But who are these men? An editorial in the same edition of the New York American holds that the anti-Fascist I group in the College of the City of New York is guilty of sedition. "Obviously,” says the editorial writer, "these young persons are old enough to know exactly nhat they are doing. And they are not looking for an education. They are looking for trouble and they should get it. Not only should they be thrown out of the institutions they disgrace—they should be thrown out of the country.” a a a It May lie an Invitation IN this instance the usual vigilante profession of fidelity to the Constitution is forgotten. Undergraduates who do not care for Dr. Robinson’s devotion to the system of Mussolini are to be expelled from the country bv no warrant which is mentioned. Indeed even criticism of this militaristic educator Is con. trued as treason to the United States. I know of nothing in the Constitution which places any college president in such a sanctified position. But the same attitude is taken in the case of recent student demonstrations in the University of California at Los Angeles. Here the issue is compulsory military training. Now there are certainly millions of American men and women who always have felt that it was perfectly passible to be both patriotic and at the same time utterly opposed to compulsory military training in the colleges. Mrs. Caroline O’Day. for instance, who has won the support of Mrs. Roosevelt is openly and earnestly against the system. But Dr. Ernest Carroll Moore, provost of the university, does not see it in this light. Anybody who > criticises the R. O. T. C. is a red. "There is no choice.” says Mr. Moore. "The student must support j the university or he must support the radicals, who are bent on bringing revolution and chaos to America.” Another charge against the -'reds” of U. C. L. A. is that they mvited Dr. Albert Einstein to address a student meeting. I believe the liberals who intend to support Merriam as "the lesser of two evils” should open their eyes a little wider. In my opinion any such decision is—decision to say farewell to democracy and to raise a hand high in the air in invitation to ourMussohnis and our Hitlers. iCopvrißht. 1934. bv The Timrsl

\riNCH of salt, ordinary table salt, spells the . difference between life and death. One of the startling facts brought to light by recent medical research is the importance of sodium chloride, as the chemist ca'ls it. in the human system. “It is maintained in the body at a very constant level and is the most essential factor in controlling the water and chemical balance.” Dr. Thomas G. Orr. professor of surgery in the University of Kansas school of medicine, says. "The average adult body contains about three hundred grams of sodium chloi ide.'* Three hundred grams is approximately ten ounces. ! •It is found in all tissues.” he continues, "but ; more abundantly in the skin, where it seems to be | stored for ready use. Osmotic tension and acid-base i equilibrium depend upon the salt balance. ‘The average intake of salt with the food is seven to ten grams, but the adult requirement is only two or three grams. Normally the kidneys excrete the excess of salt, but in certain diseases of these organs excess of salt tends to increase." . . . IT may be some deep-seated instinct, an instinct half a billion years old. older than the human race itself, which makes us crave salt in our food. For. as Dr. Orr points out, life as we know it, is impossible without salt. Slowly through the early ages of earth history, the ram dissolved salt out of the rocks. Rivers carried it down to the ocean. Life arose, perhaps in some tidal pool, only when the concentration of salt was sufficient. For ages, life existed only in the ocean—the saline sea. Often, as In China, salt became a government monopoly. Wars were fought for the possession of ' salt deposits and salt was given a religious sigmfi- t cance. a m a \MONG the first roads built in the world were ! those for the transportation of salt. Italy’s oid-st road is known as the Via Salaria. that is, "the salt road." There are salt mines in India which have been in use since the time of Alexander the Great. The modem word, “salary.” is derived from the Latin “salartum.” This was an allowance given to soldiers • for purchase of salt. Since salt is so necessary for life, the question of its abundance is important. Apparently there is no need to worry about the supply giving out. Mathematicians have calculated that the oceans contain about 4.500 000 cubic miles of salt. This Dr. Orr points out. is about fourteen and a half times the bulk of the entire continent of Europe above high-water mark.

CRIME, POLITICS—HAND IN HAND Gangland Signs Own Death Warrant by Murdering U. S. Agent

Tht* It lh wrond of throe article* outlining the real torv of the Kanaas City niHitre and trannr evidence of a Uaiaon between politician* and ranritera aa ferreted oat by federal agent*. a a a Bv VBA Bertie* KANSAS CITY, Mo., Nov. 6.—Frank Nash was a professional thief and murderer. His crime career dated back to the A1 Spencer gang, which ranged Oklahoma fifteen or more years ago—in unbroken descent from the Jesse James and A1 Jennings gangs. After a series of train robberies and murders, Nash got life in Oklahoma state penitentiary for murder. But he was pardoned, sentenced again for bank robbery, and again released. Eight months later, he robbed a mail train, and then, in 1930, after serving some six years of a twenty-five-year sentence, Nash escaped from the federal penitentiary at Leavenworth, Kan. Nash not only was an evil and desperate character, but he had plenty of connections and friends of his own kind. He was in hiding m and around Chicago. His fingerprints were found in a house in St. Paul occupied by Verne Miller. When seven convicts kidnaped Warden T. B. White and escaped from Leavenworth on Dec. 11, 1931, police were quick to connect the hiding Nash with the break. He was a known friend of Harold Fontaine, gun smuggler, and of Harvey Bailey and Wilbur Underhill,

gunmen. Then, on Memorial day, 1933, eleven more convicts engineered a desperate break from the Kansas state penitentiary at Lansing, kidnaping Warden Kirk Prather and two guards. They again were supplied plentifully with smuggled arms, and again police redoubled their search for Nash, for among the eleven who escaped in this break were his friends, Underhill and Bailey. Police strongly suspected the hand of Nash in the smuggling of weapons to the plotting Underhill and Bailey in barrels of shoedressing. But Nash continued to be elusive. His associates. Francis L. Keating and Thomas Holden, w’ere arrested on a Kansas City golf links, but Nash himself was slippery, though believed to be in Chicago with a finger in the beer and slot machine rackets. a a a BUT the break came and the relentless pursuit of Frank ' ‘h, federal agent of Oklahoma . bore fruit. A tip came that ,h was in Hot Springs, Ark., the resort town in which few crimes are committed, but many planned. Agent Smith took with him Agent F. J. Lackey and Police Chief Otto Reed of McAlester, Okla., and went to Hot Springs. Nash had been "big-shotting” about the town under the name of Doc Williams. They "pegged” Nash in front of the White Front pool hall and race-betting joint, and leaped from their car. Before he could raise his hands, they had him covered, whisked him into their car and were off. Knowing that Nash had connections in Hot Springs, the officers practically kidnaped him. He had a toupee on his bald head and had otherwise disguised his appearance. The capture was at 2:24 p. m. on June 16. At 2:50 there was a telephone call to the city police of Hot Springs, tipping them off

DAILY WASHINGTON MERRY-GO-ROUND

By Drew Pearson and Robert S. Allen

WASHINGTON, Nov. 6.—The fact was wholly overlooked, but at a recent hearing of the postoffice department’s ocean mail contract investigation a sensational accusation was made against certain members of the field staff of the United States bureau of steamboat inspection. It was charged that postoffice agents going over the books of a big steamship company had found entries of sums paid government steam boat inspectors for making lax examinations of boilers and life-saving equipment on the corporation’s vessels. Dickerson N. Hoover,

head of the inspection service, was summoned hastily, followed the testimony closely, promised to investigate the matter at once Professor Molev. who once got into difficulties with American delegates to the London economic conference, still is sensitive about the incident. While in London, Moley sent a telegram to the President giving his private views of the delegates and Secretary Hull discovered it. The other day, Moley, conferring with Delegate Morrison in Texas, pulled out a copy of the cable and explained how he had not meant to be derogatory. a a a MOLEY is reported to be boosting Sam Rayburn of Texas for Speaker of the house. Marvin Jones, chairman of the house agricultural committee and a broth-er-in-law of Rayburn, also is a candidate. Their wives are hoping there will be no row. .. . When Joe Robinson. Senate Democratic floor leader, is headed for a destination, he doesn’t let anything like an automatic door delay him. On his latest visit to Washington Joe started to drive into the congressional parking garage under the Capitol plaza. To gain entrance the driver must make a brief stop until the automaticallyoperated doors can slide back. Joe didn't wait, with the result that both his car and the doors were considerably banged up. . . . Big Jim Farley will learn that he can't make quips about new stamp issues.

that "a man had been kidnaped on the street.” This was the first of a series of telephone calls which the government now believes it can show were all aimed at the release of Nash. The first was placed, the government believes, in the hope that local police might hinder the government agents in their escape with Nash. And they were stopped, about twenty miles out, and had to identify themselves to local police. Doubling off the Joplin road on which they started, they made for Ft. Smith with their prisoner. There they got aboard a night Missouri Pacific train, arriving in Kansas City in the morning. They felt that Nash was as good as back in Leavenworth, where he belonged. ana BUT meanwhile the telephone wires w’ere busy behind them. The government has traced all those calls. There was one arranging the charter of a ( special plane to fly from Hot Springs to Joplin. Mo. There was one to Joplin asking certain people to be ready for guests. There were several from Chicago to Kansas City, establishing contact with Verne Miller, machine gunner and murderer. And there was another from Joplin later, informing Miller as to when and how Nash would arrive in Kansas City. The persons believed to have made and received these calls are the ones named in recent indictments of the present grand jury here, all charged w’ith conspiracy to obstruct justice. But government agents knew nothing of these calls as they descended from the train early the next morning, the handcuffed Nash in their midst. It was a beautiful Saturday morning, with hundreds of people walking across the broad plaza and under the massive arches that front the station, traffic bustling before it. One of the most beautiful war

against the incumbent, Democratic John Lesinski, who was swept into office by the Roosevelt landslide of ’32. . . . The desperate fight against Upton Sinclair was no penny-pinching affair. The other day every member of the Washington press corps, over 500 in number, received a large, heavy envelope, sent air mail from Los Angeles, each bearing 21 cents postage, filled with leaflets and other printed matter attacking the EPIC candidate. ana 'T'O all his other election hazards, Indiana’s grimly antiNew Deal Senator Arthur (Li’i Arthur) Robinson in the final days of the campaign had a serious defection in his ranks. John Scott, leader among the young republicans of the state, bolted to Sherman Minton, Democratic senatorial nominee. ... A carefully conducted state-wide poll made by the Des Moines (la.) Register indicated that every congressional district in this rockribbed Republican stronghold is going Democratic today. The Des Moines district, the largest and most strongly Republican, returned the highest percentage of Democratic ballots. . . . The next time Emil Hurja.

Ever since last June the guns of the murderers which rang across Kansas City’s Union Station plaza have kept echoing in department of justice minds. For in the massacre Raymond J. Caffrey, ace department operative (upper left), died with three policemen, whose bodies are shown beside their shattered automobile (lower left). It was all an effort to free convict Frank Nash, lower right, thief and murderer.

memorials in the country looked down from its high hill across from the station; it was a scene of peace and security. Only a few people turned in idle curiosity as the peace officers ushered Nash out of the station and toward their parked car across the broad street. They had Nash in the front seat of the little Chevrolet coach and were climbing in after him when there came a sharp cry of "Put ’em up! Up!” a a a NASH raised his manacled hands, either as a signal or in supplication, and there was a blast of machine-gun fire.

$150,000 GOAL SET FOR SEAL CAMPAIGN County Associations Ready for Drive. County tuberculosis associations throughout Indiana today began the annual organization for the sale of Christmas seals and health bonds. A goal of $150,000 for the sale of seals has been set by Murray A. Auerbach, Indiana Tuberculosis Association executive secretary. The Indiana tuberculosis death rate has been cut approximately 60 per cent since organized volunteer work against the disease began twenty years ago, Mr. Auerbach said in a letter to county association secretaries. Only 1,863 persons died in Indiana from tuberculosis in 1933, he pointed out, while before the sale of Christmas seals was inaugurated more than twice that number were victims of the disease each year. The seals must be purchased in everincreasing amounts if anti-tubercu-losis work is to be strengthened in the state, Mr. Auerbach declared.

Nash relaxed in death. The bodies of Frank Hermanson and W. J. Grooms, fearless Kansas City detectives, lay in the street amid the glass fragments of the shattered windshield. Raymond J.

THE NATIONAL ROUNDUP a a a a a a By Ruth Finney

WASHINGTON, Nov. 6.-New Deal economists are waiting today’s election aftermath as eagerly as New Deal politicians are waiting the returns. They have their fingers on the pulse of industry looking for the long delayed fall upturn. They hope it will make itself felt as soon as the campaign is over. If it doesn’t, new recovery prescriptions may be necessary.

It is usual for business to improve in August, September, October and November. In election years, the administration in power is particularly anxious for industrial prosperity, and no pains are spared to bring it about. Throughout this fall the Roosevelt administration has been courting industry and finance and turning its face away from anything that savored of radicalism. In spite of these efforts, the weeks just before election found industrial indices still droppinglower in many cases than in the preceding week or month, and even lower than at the same time last year.

the murderers’ car as it gathered speed and left the plaza. They seemed to have gotten away clean.

was off one-third from the preceding week and was less than half the volume of a year ago. Bond transactions declined* also but to a less degree. Brokerage loans declined and so did the amount of member banks security and commercial loans. New York Dank clearings were larger than the week before, but smaller than a year ago. Steel ingot production amounted to 1,251,630 tons in September, a decline from 1,363,359 tons in August, and from 2,283,079 in September, 1933. a a a PIG IRON production fell to 898,043 tons from a total of 1,054,382 in August and 1,522,257 a year ago. In September 174,451 automobiles were produced as compared with 244,713 in August, but in this industry the seasonal decline is normal. In September, 1933, however, 197,608 cars were produced. Private construction slumped last month also. Building permits in 215 cities totaled $26,520,686. In August the total was $34,452,738 and in September a year ago, $32,243,704. Petroleum production was off the week of Oct. 28, but only slightly, and the oil administration definitely is attempting to curb production. Declines in cotton consumption and number of spindle hours operated can be attributed to September’s cotton textile strike. Carloadings were down to 624,252 in the week of Oct. 28, a drop from 640.280 the week before and from 636,074 in the same week last year. Business failures increased from 225 to 235 that week, but were less than the 1933 figure of 294 in a corresponding period. The other side of the picture shows electric production increasing from 1.656.864.000 killowatt hours to 1,667.050,000 kilowatt hours, both figures higher than they were a year ago. a a a RAILROAD earnings went up from $35,220,839 in July to $39,677,337 in August, but this compares with a 1933 figure of $61,401,986. In September, merchandise exports totaled $191,690,000, a gain of $20,000,000 over the preceding month and $30,000,000 over September, 1933. Bituminous and anthracite coal made small seasonal gains in line with last year's figures. Employment in retail trade showed an increase of 7 per cent in September according to figures of the bureau of labor statistics.

t OS ANGELES. Nov. 6.—The beautiful people of Hollywood seem to find life a very busy and complex business. Your correspondent has received a circular issued to the moving picture trade by a professional headache bureau offering to bother, worry, run errands, make and break engagements, wake up clients in the morning, remind them to be kind to other mothers and wives, invite guests to parties, buy liquor, and tr lk to bill collectors—it seems to be a very comprehensive service.

"We phone you at an appointed hour daily for assignments,” the prospectus says. "We take and deliver messages for you twenty-four hours a day. When you decide to give an impromptu party, give us a list of your guests. We invite them for you with grace and form. With equal tact we break or postpone appointments which you do not want to keep. We wake you in the morning and keep calling you if we suspect that you have dozed off again. We telephone you on any pretext which you may specify to get you away from a dull evening. We hire, fire servants. We find the apart-

ment or house you want and move and settle you.” It must be pleasant to be so successful, particularly against the background of an early career behind the counter of a department store or a childhood spent on a farm. The only objection is that the importance of being so important must wear a person down in time. ’Success is sweet, to be sure, But it likely is to become a burden when it becomes necessary to hire a professional reminder to remember that it is time to wake up. a a a Need Jitter Service 'T'HE service undertakes to assume all headaches on the client's behalf and it even may be possible in this magic land to phone the bureau on a particularly bad morning and say "Please feel rotten for me until you get a stop order.” This might not be as satisfactory to the subject as it would appear on first inspection. The headache is half the experience of a large evening and a life in which all the little vexations are attended by a professional sufferer could be too empty for fun. It is doubtful that any other group of people on earth are so delicate, temperamental and so occupied with their art as to provide employment in payloads for a central headache bureau your correspondent has known. Quite a few rich and busy men whose affairs demand more attention, day and night, than the duties of an actor in the movies. Yet most of them can wake up in the morning on their owm initiative, remember when flowers ought to be sent and escape from sticky parties through their own ingenuity. It is doubtful, too, that any other group on earth, except prize fighters, have so little appreciation of their actual importance, most of the prize fighters of the boom time, who made from SIOO,OOO to $200,000 net, wound up broke and in most cases the panic, or crash, rather than extravagance, brought them back to their beginning. Even .iack Dempsey explains that he must keep hustling as a referee or master of ceremonies to earn the money to maintain himself and protect the investments in which he planted the fortune he earned in the ring. a a a The End of the Trail A FEW, such as Jack Kearns, Dempsey’s old manager, who also collected about $2,000,000 in his time, have no regrets. Mr. Kearns spent his or gave or gambled it away, but he is dependent neither on his beauty, which is negligible, nor his left hook, which never did amount to much in formal competition. Mr. Kearns can go back into action as soon as he finds another prizefighter who can stand up for him. Lou Tellegen, a pretty man of some years back, knew days at the top of his career when his beauty still was fresh, when he could have used the services of a headache bureau. He was well paid and very famous and there were times when the chaps from the newspapers—the reporters, y’know—gave him great annoyance. The reporters y’know were always at him for a word on love-making which was his trade, or anything else which he might care to discuss. They had not bothered him for some years, however, when he found himself washed up and without prospects and killed himself a few days ago. There are some pretty horrible examples of the washed up beauty, male and female, around Hollywood at this time. One of the richest males that the business ever produced is around the place, forlorn, worn and growing bald, explaining that he is about through with the movies because the movies themselves, are washed up, now. They go in for tiled swimming pools and yachts and mansions and seem to think they are not just pretty, but good. It doesn’t take many years to use up a pretty actor’s professional assets and in the meantime the money has been used up, too. They get through suddenly and are startled and hurt, in a childish way, to find themselves broke. Phocian Howard, the old horse journalist and faro gambler, used to crowd it all into one phrase, he said, “A man never knows he is broke until he runs out of money.” (Copyright, 1934, by United Feature Syndicate.

Your Health BY DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN

ONE of the commonest conditions resulting in destruction of the teeth is pyorrhea. Yet a simple routine of cleansing and care should enable you to prevent such pus formation, irritation, and loosening of the teeth. Mummies found in Egypt showed signs of having had this disease. Mummies dug up in northern Italy had gold bands which held their teeth in place, because pyorrhea had loosened them. The disease persists among a great many of us, and yet a review of the causes can show you how easy it is to prevent it. First, there may be a mild infection around the gums. Then, deposits of tartar around the teeth and under the edges of the gums may cause trouble. Third, wedging of food between the teeth, where they do not touch properly, and similar factors, may be responsible for pyorrhea. 000 WHENEVER tissues become inflamed or irritated, it is easy for the germs to attack them and break them down. Pyorrhea slowly destroys the tissue by which the roots of the teeth are attached to the bone. Little pockets of pus form between the gums and the roots. These are called pyorrhea pockets. The way to prevent pyorrhea should be obvious from this description of its nature. Since the condition usually begins at the margins of the gums, it is important that you keep these margins clean. The teeth must be brushed regularly and properly. Dentists should see the teeth for cleansing purposes at least twice a year, preferably four times a year. 0 0 0 IF th/re is a tendency for particles of food to catch between the teeth, some dental care may be necessary to realign the teeth. The dentist can also instruct you as to proper methods of mouth hygiene to keep these particles of food from collecting. Many persons with pyorrhea require special Information as to their* diets, so that they may have the food substances associated with sound gums and sound teeth. Once pyorrhea is well established, it is hopeless for the average person to attempt to control the condition by mouth washes and tooth pastes c various kinds. Unless the pus pockets are emptied and the teeth given the right kind of dental care, the condition if likely to get worse and result in loss of the teeth.
