It Seems to Me HEYWOOD BROUN IWENT out Sunday night with my first love. The Baseball Writers* Association held its annual dinner and churned up my somewhat ancient memr.e of the men who wrote and played the game when I was very young and a sports reporter. But It wasn't melancholy. Nobody got particularly reminiscent or sentimental and some of the old birds haven't aged a particle. They tell me Connie Mack is 70. but he stood up straight and stalwart to make a speech saying that ball players were paid Just as much

as they deserved. And so nothing seemed to have changed greatly in the quarter of a century. And two chairs to the left was Maranville, the electric rabbi of the Boston Braves. He was the to state that nobody is going to be him out for second base this sr *ng. The Rabbit has been around hat infield so long now that he has squatters’ sovereignty.

Mack said. “Baseball is better played today than ewer oefore. Ary Class D leaguer can catch better thtn I did when I was in the big leagues." Os course, it was impossible for anybody to deny that this la an up and coming age. for along about d*ep right renter of the speake’s’ table sat Dizzy Dean himself. It was my first nvet ; ne with the new kind of baseball. Dizzy was democratic, modest and a little itchy. "You know,” he explained to me, "This is the flrst time I ever wore a Tux**dc in my life. They said Id have to wear one and to I borrowed it off one of the boys.” b a a End of a Dinner Coat Unfortunately Mr. Dean and and not pick the right boy as the donor. The prince of pitchers te lank, but he has an awesome spread of shoulders. The owner of the dinner coat will be able to use it as a mackintosh when it comes back to him from Dizzy Dean. A chorus of writers sang a ditty during the course of the evening in which they asserted that Dizzy might not be a Matty or a Johnson, but that they would string along with him until the day that one came along. It seems to me that both Dizzy and his critics are far too modest m discussing the young man's prowess. I saw Matty work many times, but on the mere question of technical proficiency nobody's opinion except that of a player is worth much. In the field of showmanship Matty was by no means comparable to Dean. This is even more true in the ca.se of Walter Johnson. Walter was a pitching machine with the loveliest fast ball that ever the human eye was too slow to gaze upon. But he never had an atom of color. We always used to describe him as “one of the finest characters in baseball.” What else could you say? The man had no personality. There is a small intellectual group of baseball experts which contends that of all the pitchers of all time Carl Hubbell stands out as the supreme artist. But these are people who read Proust and subscribe to the New Republic. It is too small a faction to stand up against the proletarian mass pressure which has been assembled behind Dizzy Dean. Any effort upon my part to argue that Dean Isn't really dizzy at all would probably be resented by the same readers who get mad when a columnist takes pot shots at Santa Claus. I don't mean that the pitcher, himself, would get angry. The fact that there isn't any Santa Claus would not be news to Dizzy Dean. He works for Sam Breadon. MB* That Wan 24 Yearn Ago I ALWAYS am startled by the low pay which the baseball stars receive. Os course, some of the top salaries sound big but they are for short periods and depend upon soundness of limb in a sport where accidents are numerous. And lam irritated when some magnate or other announces blandly that he is through with some old favorite. For instance, organized baseball seems to be through with Babe Ruth. I wonder who these magnates think they are. They strut around their stadia as if the owned the game. Just let them try some afternoon and see how many fans will turn out to watch a pitching duel between Stoneham and Jake Ruppert. But here I am. at my age. going back into arguments with which I was done in the summer of 1915. And indeed I didn't get away from the baseball writers' dinner without being very sharply reminded that time is a sprinter. A friend who had taken the dinner to the full, collared me at the door and said. “Let's go down to Sweeney's and watch Florence dance.” He was sincere but slightly muddled and I had to say, “Pull yourself together Bill and think. We used to go there in the summer of 1908 when I was starting off on the Morning Telegraph. Pull yourself together and remember. They tore that place down just 24 years ago. You remember, it was the year that Home Run Baker kmcked Matty for that drive over the fight field wall.” Cop-ri(tht. IMS>

Your Health BY DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN

WILHELM KONRAD VON ROENTGEN announced his discovery of the X-ray in December. 1895. In the 40 years since that time, the X-ray has become one of the greatest aids to the medical profession, not only for diagnosis of disease, but also for treatment. The X-ray is a potent force. Doctors in the early days did not know how to protect themselves against its dangers, and so, many nave become martyrs to their investigations with this apparatus. Meantime, many different improvement* hava been made, so that the X-ray of today is as greatly advanced beyond the devices used before 1900 as is the motor car of today compared with the automobile of that period. mm m IT is possible, by studies of the skull, to determine presence of disease of the bone, of brain tumors, and of changes in the blood vessels of the skoll and brain. Injections of air may be made into the hollow spaces inside the brain, and these may be carefully studied as to outline and any changes which have occurred. There was a time when the X-ray was used only to study hard tissue, like bones, but nowadays it is possible to visualize other structures of the body. Dye substances have been discovered which may be taken into the body and which localize in certain organs and tissues: then, by the use of the X-ray, these organs and tissues are made visible m m m ALL sorts of diseases today are being treated with the X-ray, from simple conditions of the skin to deeply seated tumors in the abdomen. To shorten the time of application of the X-ray for these deep tumors, apparatus has been developed which will deliver up to 800.000 volts, the normal tissue of the body being protected by filtering these rays through copper filters. Naturally, such apparatus is exceedingly expensive. it has become customary, therefore, to provide auch service through hospitals and through special X-ray laboratories, so that cost of the apparatus and its use may be distributed over a considerable number of persons and thus made generally available. Os the 7000 hospitals iiy the United States, more than two-thirds are already fully equipped with excellent X-ray apparatus. Q—What interest do United States Postal Savings bond* pay? A—Two and one-half per cent. Q —What kind of lights do coal miners use? A—Electric battery lamps worn on the cap 6. Flame safety lamps, used primarily to detect gases, provide some Ulununation. 4

TyfARIE LOUISE has been called by some historians the nemesis of Napoleon. He was at his height when she delivered to him his son. But from the birth of the king of Rome in 1811 there was nothing but defeat and decline for Napoleon. Napoleon never had lost a campaign until after his marriage to Marie Louise. The four years after his son was bom were to find him losing a million men in the two decisive wars that led to his abdication, one of the wars presenting the enigma of Marie Louise serving as empress-regent of France while her husband’s armies fought those of her father. It is during this period of decline. this rapid crumbling of his empire, that Napoleon wrote most of the 318 letters which now are to be published for the flrst time. He wrote from the far-off Russian front, where he took such appalling losses. He wrote from the French-Austrian front w'hen the armies of the coalition that included Marie Louise's father's troops were descending on Paris. And one of these 318 letters to Marie Louise was his undoing. Intercepted by his foes, it revealed to them his plans to save Paris, to make a final thrust. Intercepted. it brought his downfall and abdication. Marie Louise, the nemesis of Napoleon? Surely there is much to support it. And surely Napoleon must have felt it. But did he express his thoughts to Marie Louise, who had, at least, his respectful love. These letters wull tell. They will add new' pages to one of the great periods of history—the crumbling of Napoleon's vast empire, the decline of this strongest personality the modern world has known. Napoleon was covering his anxiety at the approaches of this decline with festivals over the birth of his son. But even while the Eaglet was being feted, the empire was beginning to fall apart. Wellington w r as harassing in Spain. Bernadotte, the Frenchman Napoleon has placed on Sweden’s throne, had gone over to the Russian influence. Even Murat, the Emperor’s brother-in-law. was showing signs in Italy ot defection from the imperial policy. England was getting goods into the Continent through Sweden and Russia and the low countries. B B B AND Napoleon was neglecting business. One of the prices of his warmap empire was ceaseless vigilance. He had been a glutton for work. Now he spent much time with Marie Louise and his infant. And Paris, anxious over the certain approach of new wars, found time to smile over stories of Napoleon romping on the floor with his king of Rome. Never before had Napoleon's followers known their great general to be indecisive. Now he tarried, hesitated at points where the old would have rushed in and v °lmed. as indispensable to his ah.. this alliance that had at its root the blockade of England. And Czar Alexander, perhaps still smarting under the snub Napoleon gave his sister when he married Marie Louise, broke the alliance. Napoleon, against the counsel of his ambassadors and generals, marched on Russia, into a land of wastes that could not feed the half million army he led. But first Napoleon and Marie Louise went to Prague to meet her father and Mettemich. to win their support in his war against the czar and nature. Enigma again. The dear papa and the

WASHINGTON. Feb. 6.—Pittsburgh will be the scene and Feb. 11 the opening date in the great battle—People of the United States vs. Andrew W. Mellon. The issue is whether the one-time Secretary of the Treasury shall collect $139,045.17 for what he claims is overpaid taxes that the government owes him on his 1931 income return, or whether the Internal Revenue Bureau shall take $3,075,103.22 from

The hearings, expected to last a number of weeks, will be conducted by a “court” consisting of three members of the Board of Tax Appeals. Presiding officer will be Ernest H. Van Fossan. an Ohio Republican, originally appointed with the indorsement of Mellon, reappointed last year by President Roosevelt. m m m VAN FOSSAN sat in the famous Couzens-Mellon tax duel in which the Michigan Senator defeated the attempt of Mellon as Secretary of the Treasury to collect $10,000,000 additional taxes on Couzens’ sale of his Ford stock.

Metternich for whom Marie Louise had married the emperor she once hated made pronv.ses of cooperation. But subsequent events proved that they promised the czar at the same time they would not pit Austrians against Russians. It was a typical Metternich double-gesture. And now Napoleon left Marie Louise and his king of Rome for the agonies of the Russian campaign. There was little resistance from Vilna until the murderous battle of Borodino, the battle that took a third of his army. He was not the same Napoleon. He had received that day from Mary Louise the first portrait of his son. And news that Spain probably was lost. Undoubtedly he was ill. His generals saw the opportunity that Napoleon always saw first ir. battle. Let the enemy show a weak spot. Then strike. Strike with everything at that weak spot. That strategy had won an empire. But Napoleon did not strike. His picked guard—lß,ooo strong—was waiting to strike. But Napoleon did what he never before had done in battle —he hesitated. * * tt NAPOLEON had left his thousands of dead at Borodino on the cold ground and called it a victory. Why hadn’t the guard been sent in to end the awful carnage? It was his last resource, he said, and he was 700 leagues from Paris. He sent Russian regiment flags back to Marie Louise. And letters.

His son Frank. 32-year-old Mayor of Detroit, wired Secretary Ickes for an appointment to discuss a grant of PWA funds. Without waiting for a reply, young Couzens jumped on a train and rushed to the Capitol. Meanwhile. Ickes. with characteristic terseness, had wired him: “Time to see me about PWA money is after Congress has ac ced.” The telegram was relayed to the impatient Mayor when he reached Washington. He sought to see Ickes but the latter, every minute of his day already engaged, could not see him. Father Couzens in the Senate said nothing publicly. But privately—his ideas had something to do with the attempt to bar Ickes as administrator of the $4,800,000,000 work relief fund. (OopjTiKh*. l**S. bv TTnited Feature

land, only to find it in flames. The Russians would not fight openly. Nor would they make peace. Napoleon was stopped by impasse. The tragic retreat began. Back over the fields from hich his army in the advance I,d stripped everything that nadn’t been burned. Starvation. Bitter cold. His men and their camp followers fell by the hundreds. Back over that hell of Borodino, where the bodies were frozen and where men went mad. Another mistake of Napoleon. He had forgotten two of his maxims: “An army travels on its belly,” and "Make no war against a desert.” Napoleon had wrought the worst military disaster Europe had seen in generations. Historians have searched every scrap of memoirs for explanations. Now there is a new source by which to search the mind of tnis defeated conqueror. For during this Russian debacle Napoleon wrote 112 letters to Marie Louise in 191 days. These are a part of the 318 now to be revealed. Napoleon left his shattered army—3oo,ooo at least had been lost—and hurried back to Paris and Marie Louise. There had been an almost successful attempt to restore the republic. Paris this time did not acclaim the emperor. Now days of reconstructing armies and political alliances. Austria was wavering. Metternich

was delivering Marie Louise's father to Napoleon’s foes Napoleon was off to the front again, to win decisive victories at Lutzen and Bautzen. Then an armistice. Marie Louise wrote to her dear papa that Napoleon did not want to make war on him, did not want to grind Austria under his heel a fourth time. But Metternich joined Russia and Prussia when Napoleon rejected the armistice terms. n tt tt NAPOLEON saw Marie Louise and his son for the last time on Jan. 24, 1814, in Paris. Marie Louise clung r j him and wept. Napoleon was off to war again. And Marie Louise, whose love for her father was her outstanding characteristic, was left as empressregent of the France she once despised so bitterly. And now Marie Louise did the thing that had put her great-aunt on the guillotine. At Napoleon’s written directions she continued -communications with the enemy, her father and Metternich, arranging terms that Napoleon continued to reject. And then the weird thrust of destiny that brought Napoleon to his knees. He wrote to Marie Louise his plans to save Paris from the advancing coalition troops. He would get behind Blucher’s army, threaten its lines of communication and thus turn it away from Paris. But Napoleon’s courier fell into Blucher’s hands, Napoleon was defeated. The coalition advanced on Paris. Marie Louise heeded previous instructions of Napoleon and fled to Blois. With her went Napoleon’s son and as much of his crown jewels and other treasure as could be carried. Marie Louise in flight again. Not from Napoleon this time, but from her dear papa’s troops. Just four years and two

days after Napoleon greeted his proxy bride at Compeigne. Now Marie Louise again became the pawn in the diplomatic chess game. Napoleon was at Fontainebleau, soon to abdicate and be virtually exiled to Elba. Marie Louise was called to Rambouillet by her father. Metternich was there, as was Czar Alexander and it is told that the czar held Napoleon’s son on his knee. Metternich had determined Napoleon and Marie Louise must be separated. And so, while Napoleon traveled to Elba (in the uniform of an Austrian to escape death from mobs that once adored him) his empress and her court were transplanted to Vienna. tt tt tt THE rest of the story bears out the role of Nemesis that Marie Louise has played in history. Soon she went to Aix, under the protection of Count Neipperg, a dashing general who had lost his right eye fighting Austria’s battles against Napoleon. Count Neipperg was Metternich’s agent and was as boastful over his Don Juan conquests as once Napoleon had been. He told his friends, when he was assigned to Aix to be Marie Louise's protector: “In six weeks I will be her best friend, in six months her lover.” He made good his boast. Back to Vienna, eventually, went Marie Louise and Neipperg. The coalition was dividing Napoleon’s empire. Metternich and her father came to Marie Louise. They knew, of course, about Neipperg. Marie Louise made her choice. In return for the Duchy of Parshe would renounce Napoleon and she would turn over his son to be brought up as an Austrian. The son would have no succession to her duchy. He simply would be the Duke of Reichstadt and never allowed to leave Vienna. She might visit him now and then. She would turn over unopened any letters she received from Napoleon. And she would turn over the packet of 318 letters Napoleon had wiitten to her. (These are the letters, a family secret of the Hapsburgs for 120 years, that now are to be published in The Indianapolis Times.) The end of this never completely told story is: Marie Louise never again saw’ or wrote to Napoleon. Shortly after she had renounced him he escaped from Elba and again met disaster at Waterloo. And she became the mother of Neipperg's son. The King of Rome, Napoleon's tragic little Eaglet, grew’ up virtually a prisoner in Vienna and died at 21. And when Napoleon died in exile at St. Helena his last words were of Josephine, not of Marie Louise.

fair Enough nUMPECIffi THE last time your correspondent visited the Department of Interior in Washington, Stew Godwin. the public relations counsel to Secretary Harold L. Ickes, was still teething but was bravely holding down his chair until quitting time. “ *Ook ’ere,” Mr. Godwin said, inserting the forefinger of his two hands in the left comer of his mouth and peeling his countenance back as you might attempt to turn a football cover inside out. “ ’Ook ’ere,” Mr. Godwin said, his speech some-

what embarrassed by this inconvenience. “ 'Oo ’fee’ ’at?” Your correspondent bent close, peering into Mr. Godwin's interior as far back as that which A1 Smith, in his presidential campaign orations used to call the larnyx. On the lower left jaw there reposed a considerable block of poured cone:’''; suggesting some work by the P 1 “That is marvelous,” your respondent exclaimed. “Did it hurt?” Mr. Godwin released his face, permitting his handsome features to snap back into shape and rubbed a moment. “Hurt like hell,” he said

presently, “but nothing compared to the headacha when I got back to the office.” tt n The Unkindcst Cracks of All IT was during Mr. Godwin’s absence at the dentist's that someone in the Department of the Interior released to the newspapers as an official handout a reprint of an article published in the Nation which passed many unkind cracks at two members of Mr. Roosevelt's cabinet and one of his best Senators. The Nation is a little magazine very much in love with humanity which expresses that affection by uttering unkind cracks about many leading statesmen. This article severely criticised Mr. Farley, Mr. Cummings and Senator Pat Harrison of Mississippi. Without going into the truth or falsity of the criticism, it was felt that Mr. Ickes, as a member of the cabinet, himself, should not have given circulation to an article of this type. After all, even though Mr. Ickes is the house dick of the Administration and, as such, frequently has to chase Mr. Farley away, he should always do this in a quiet manner. The greater the truth of the article, the worse the scandal in the happy household of the Administration. The Messrs. Farley, Cummings and Harrison had sent a deserving Democrat named T. Webber Wilson down to the Virgin Islands to act as Federal judge. That was something that couldn't very well be helped. Mr. Wilson is a Mississippi statesn.an who found himself unconnected with a public pay roll for the first time It was a wise move to make him a judge in the Virgin Islands and thus put him back on the pay roll and thus, also, rid his mind of any notion of running for the Senate in opposition to Senator Harrison. A Mississippi statesman who finds himself unconnected with a public pay roll is always a source of danger. n tt Vote Getters Came First MR. FARLEY also wished to replace Mr. Paul M. Pearson, a Republican, as Governor of the Virgin Is’ands. Mr. Ickes is neither a Republican nor a Democrat and lie just felt that if there had to be anew Governor the selection should not be left to Mr. Farley. If you don’t know, then Mr. Ickes certainiy does, what sort of statesman Mr. Farley would be likely to select for Governor of the unfortunate Virgin islanders if it were left to him. Mr. Farley would merely scan the list of deserving Democrats and pick the next man in line whether he happened to be a tailor, a trap-drummer or just one of the boys from around the corner, but a reliable man at turning out the vote. It was while Mr. Godwin was away from the office, teething, that persons unknown turned out the mimeographed reproduction of the article discussing this situation with the utmost candor. Mr. Ickes, the house dick, apologized to all hands around, Mr. Godwin resolved to do the rest of his teething on his own time, and the mimeograph, which is more dangerous than the machine gun, will be kept under lock and key henceforth. “What about a few refreshing saucers of whisky when you get through work?” your correspondent suggested to Mil Godwin. “I can’t,” Mr. Godwin said, “I am spending my nights with the dentist. No kidding,” he added, again inserting his forefingers in his mouth and rolling back the portals of his frank, earnest countenance, “mah sees been awfu’ bad tape. Can you fee in dere?” (Copyright, 1935, by United Feature Syndicate, Inc.)

Today's Science BY DAVID DIETZ

A LITTLE 16-page booklet published by the University Hospitals of Cleveland is attracting international attention in hospital circles. Requests for copies of it are coming from hospitals in all parts of the United States and from Europe. The latest request is from the director general of the Paris hospitals. The booklet represents anew departure in hospital procedure. Its title is “A Journey of Discovery While Lying Abed.” A copy is put into the hands of each patient when he has reached the stage of convalescence. Prepared under the direction of Dr. Robert H. Bishop Jr., director of the University Hospitals, its function is to acquaint the patient with the complete story of the hospital in which he finds himself. For many patients a hospital is naturally a bewildering place. He enters it at the moment of a great personal crisis—after an accident or in need of an operation, or when infection has entered his system He may be suffering severe pain. He may find himself almost immediately the central character in a drama whic moves with great swiftness. What impression does the patient take away from the hospital? Dr. Bishop decided that in this day when the air is fuli of talk about the future of medical science, the patient ought to have a chance to know all the facts. a tt a THE booklet, at the start, emphasizes the relationship of hospital to community. “Although the services given within its walls must of necessity be highly personalized, so that each patient in turn receives lull benefit of its multitudinous facilities, ths University Hospitals represent the whole community. From the time that the idea of a great medical center was first conceived the project has developed step by step as a communitv service. “Day after day, as individual sufferers are restored to health and happiness, the vast facilities of the University Hospitals make possible special studies of these cases, all looking forward to the progress of the science of preventive medicine, and, therefore, to the gradual but scientifically certain improvement of the public health of the community and the greater welfare and happiness of its citizens, in all walks of life.” mm m THE booklet also gives some statistics about “yotnr hospital dollar.” It divides it up as follows: General room service. 34,8 per cent; professional services, 186 per cent: nursing care, 19 per cent; dietary, 21.3 per cent, and laundry and linen, 6.3 per cent. It points out that only two-flfths of your dollar cover what might be termed “hotel service.” Th# other three-fifths goes to special food service, nursing care and professional service.
