SATURDAY. FEBRUARY 1, 1936. MIDWINTER MADNESS MAYBE it's the weather or sun spots or the moon or the spread of the bacillus politicus or just one of those periodic outbreaks of human cockeyedness, but it does seem we Americans are acting sort of foolish. To common sensible folks the shrill alarms now screeching through the air from Talmadge, Knox, Fish, Hoover et al, sound hysterical. So much so that Alf Landon’s comparatively mild utterances are welcomed as the voice of sweet reasonableness,. Things on Capitol Hill surely are going a bit dizzy. There Congressman Treadway demands impeachment of Secretary Wallace for criticizing the Supreme Court. There Representatives McCormack and Kramer are pushing their crackpot bills to gag critics of the army and navy and the government. There flourish as the bay tree lottery and inflationary tax and security schemes. There California’s aged poet laureate McGroarty puts on motley and rushes through the House a silly motion cutting support from the Indian Bureau, which he said he's waited 40 years to “get a whack at.” Union labor is not immune from the current epidemic of folly. President Green of the A. F. of L. courts an open break with the powerful United Miners over industrial organization, and Miner Lewis hurls defiance, with the possible result that unionism, long united, may divide —and be conquered. All the madness isn't in Washington. A Seattle candidate for mayor jumps into a pool to remind incumbent his promise to duck himself if he broke platform promises. Everybody is playing the new' parlor game Monoploy, whose inventor is discovered to be a southern lady single-taxer, still poor. A Bronx zoo “hippo” gives birth to a baby weighing a pound and a half and a gaboon viper in New York’s zoo produces 27 little vipers at one birth. A clog goes mad, and bites five children in a Virginia school. It's about time to recall the story of the late Dwight Morrow. While Ambassador in Mexico, he was bothered by citizens who came to him almost daily with some new crisis. “Remember rule No. 6,” he would tell them. At first they were impressed, but finally they became curious and asked what this rule might be. “Rule No. 6,” he said, “is: Don’t take things too seriously.”

DECENT HOMES DIRECT attack on the home building and ownership policies of the Administration has been launched by Frank Watson, former New Deal attorney and co-author of the Federal Housing Act, in a research report made for Purdue University. “The housing problem is not yet solved,” he asserts. “The present home building drive of the AdminiSration in Washington can not succeed and no amount of effort in the field of loosened credit for home building and home mortgages can give rise to an era of sound residential construction where it is impossible to build houses which people can not aflord to live in and pay for.” Mr. Watson bases his conclusions on a series of studies of non-farm family incomes. He found that 35 per cent can not afford to build and own a $2500 home; 53 per cent are barred from houses costing $3400; 66 per cent can not build for $4200; 75 per cent for SSIOO, and 80 per cent are out of the S6IOO home class. “These studies not only indicate that mortgage programs and publicity programs for home ownership can not by themselves produce an era of sound residential construction,” he warns, “but through their tendency to induce people to over-buy homes they may bring about an era of unsound construction activity which will react as a positive evil to the home owner and the real estate and construction industry.” There is no great possibility in cost reduction so far, Mr. Watson finds. No one member of the chain of material sellers is regarded as taking too much prollt. Building trades wages are high in terms of hourly rates but low in terms of annual incomes. Experience shows that the present system of home building is apparently essential, he concludes, and “no change short of a complete revolution engineered through the combined efforts of the entire building industry” can accomplish the task of providing decent homes which American families can finance. HOUSEKEEPING COSTS 'HE ordinary housekeeping cost of government is greater today than it has ever been in any time in the history of the republic,” A1 Smith told his Liberty League audience. The accuracy of that statement depends upon what expenditures you choose to include in “ordinary housekeeping costs of government.” It is not accurate if you consider only those items which were included in the budgets of the Hoover Administration before the government started to attack the depression by spending. In the last full year under Mr. Hoover, the fiscal year 1931-32, the government’s housekeeping costs totalled $4,506,590,305. In the first full year under Mr. Roosevelt, the fiscal year 1933-34, items of that type were cut down to $3,239,590,073. Thus did the Roosevelt Administration undertake to make good, on the Democratic party platform pledge to cut expenses 25 per cent. But it didn't make good for long. For not only did Congress have to pour out billions in emergency relief expenditures, but Congress also —over the President’s resistance—restored salary cuts, veterans’ benefit reductions and other economics, until the ordinary items swelled back almost to former proportions. Almost but not quite —ordinary items for the current fiscal year are budgeted at $4,122,737,151, a better showing than the last full Hoover year by 373 millions. Yet, who snows but what a great many items now Included in the emergency expenditures have in reality already become “ordinary housekeeping costs" of the government. B B H T ETus turn back to the early days of the republie. Thomas Jefferson, founder of the party now in power, also was elected on a platform pledging economy. He too made good—at the- startcutting government costs from a total of about •even million dollars to a total of about four mil-

lions. How small those sums sound now as we deal in billions and consider millions as small change in counting government costs. They sounded small even before the rule of the original Jeffersonians ended. Fifty years later the government was operating on a 40 million dollar budget, and 100 years later on a 500 million budget, and so on, by geometric progression, until today the government is spending, for both ordinary and emergency purposes, around 7000 millions. What Al Smith said about ordinary housekeeping costs of government being greater this year than ever before may not seem to be exact, but it may prove to be. That depends upon how many of our costs now listed as emergency become ordinary costs. Certainly it is a statement which could have been made with accuracy almost any year since the beginning of the republic. Bureaucracy is self-perpetuating and self-increas-ing. But the explanation is not that simple. Our Federal household grows ever larger and more complex, and as its problems and needs expand so do its expenses. NO SAFETY AT SEA T TNITED STATES steamboat inspectors have, in substance, formally declared that they can no longer be responsible for the safety of passengers traveling on American-flag ships. They say they haven’t either the necessary money or men to perform adequately their duties. We have had grim testimony that something was wrong with this vital government function in the Morro Castle and Mohawk disasters. Yet the necessary ana radical reforms have not been made by the Department of Commerce. Recommendations have been made to Congress. But even these, for the most part ineffectual, have met little more than indifference at the Capitol. Why? How many lives must be lost to get action? Must we have other Morro Castle and Mohawk tragedies before we can travel on our own ships confident that the fire-fighting and life-saving equipment, at least, has been thoroughly inspected? Must we go on with an inspection service so limited that even lifeboat crews can not be properly trained and instructed? Present conditions suggest that it might even be a good idea to study the possibility of turning administration and enforcement of maritime safety law's over to the Coast Guard. What does Congress intend to do about it? THE FIGHT FOR FUNDS A GROUP of Senate Democrats, headed by Senator Wagner, is seeking an additional $105,000 for the National Labor Relations Board to enable it to keep up with its crowded docket and to fight the 25 injunction suiis which are threatening its work. An Appropriations Subcommittee will decide the fate of the additional fund, which the House rejected last week. The proposal is to add this amount to the deficiency appropriation bill, which carries funds to finance this and other, agencies until July 1. Eleven decisions have been handed dow'n by Federal District Courts so far in injunction suits against the Labor Board, six of them dismissing the suits and five tying the board's hands. This leaves 14 pending, in addition to appeals planned by employers in some of the board’s six victories. Although more than 200 cases filed since the board started operations in November have been settled by decisions or by compliance with the Wagner Act, 287 cases were pending Jan. 1 and they are coming in faster than the present staff can handle them. In the House, Chairman Connery of the Labor Committee sponsored the proposal to increase the $275,000 provided by the House Appropriations Committee. The House rejected the increase, 51-64, without a formal roll call. On the Senate floor, if the Appropriations Committee does not recommend inclusion of the increase, the objection of a single Senator can block such a proposal as “out of order.”

LESE MAJESTE REP. TREADWAY says Secretary Wallace should be impeached for criticising the Supreme Court’s processing tax decision. -If the New Deal were as tyrannical as Mr. Treadway and his Republican colleagues describe it, the Massachusetts congressman probably would be stood up against a wall and shot at sunrise for criticising Secretary Wallace. And if some of the proposed bills to curb freedom of speech and the press were to become law, then we might be thrown into jail for suggesting that Mr. Treadway should take a walk. CHEER UP, EUGENE THE stockholder, said Eugene G. Grace last May in an attack on the New Deal, is “the real forgotten man.” Mr. Grace, who heads the American Iron & Steel Institute, will be heartened to note that remembrance has arrived in the form of a million dollar net income for United States Steel for 1935—first such black-ink showing since ’3l. A WOMAN’S VIEWPOINT BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON A “good marriage” is what most mothers desire for their daughters. Yet how many women are ready to face the question of what a good marriage is? To judge from common talk on the subject, it means a union in which love plays a major role. That is to say, we pretend we are entirely satisfied when a girl has won the heart of a fine though poor young man who is ready to dedicate his life to her support. Our maneuvering?, in matrimonial markets, however, tell a different story. There we find that the women who speak so feelingly of love are doing everything they can to grab additional swag for their children. They would like love, to be sure, but the main item on their shopping list is a good income. There's nothing to be said against that either. But if the income is what we're after, let's say so. I decry the dishonest attitude. It seems to me that attitude is partly responsible for the high divorce rate which now disgraces us. Girls are told over and over, in a hundred subtle ways, that to be loved is the chief aim of woman. They are not told, at least they are not told enough, that to love ensures us the only complete and satisfactory life. A return to the old conception of the good marriage wouldn’t do American homes any harm, and the old conception was not one in which the wife received everything—adulation, social position, ease and a fine family. Instead it was a union upon which she could spend herself for others out the richness of her affection and contribute the force of her being to giving happiness, rather than obtaining it. The true marriage, then, is one in which there is mutual self-esteem and in which husband and wife share equally in the responsibility of making a home and preserving their love. The kept woman, whether married or single, is

Squaring The Circle With THE HOOSIER EDITOR

OINCE the Indians picked off George Pogue back in 1822 in the last life-taking raid in Indiana, the Indians have taken to books on their reservations and are doing right well. DESIGN I don’t know how I make a design, But I do. A line here— A line there— And I’m through. That gives you an idea of how well they have mastered the gentler arts. It’s taken from the regular publication of the office of Indian affairs at Washington which has come to this desk regularly for months but which never before attracted the attention of this column. tt tt tt qpHAT poem was written, if I have my index straight, by Alfred Little Tail, a pupil in elementary schools on an Indian reservation. The young braves and squaws are taught to ramble along with pencils. Here’s the beginning of a story so written about Shaker, a monkey. “We guess Shaker is a boy. He is so mean. He chews everything. He chews buttons. He chews pencils. He chews paper. He chews his spoon, too. He even chews his pants.”That’s pretty good reporting if it isn’t anything else, and it’s better than an outside 8-to-5 chance that it’s going to develop into literature some of these days. a a tt npHE white boys and girls have grown up a bit, too, and have learned to express themselves more forcefully. The other cold night a smartly dressed office girl walked into a street car, sat down by a good-looking boy, and rode in silence for several blocks. Then she turned to the boy, who was obviously a stranger, and said, with a perky smile: “How are you? Not, of course, that I give a darn, but it does help conversation.” It occurred on the Central-av line, in about the 1400 block, at about 4:45 on the afternoon of Jan. 27. The conversation went on all right after that. tt tt tt T JTTLE Hoosier boys are doing all right, too, in repartee. Our brave little office boy, the one with the black, nicely combed hair, was about to leave for a subzero dash for black coffee for one of the older men on the staff the other morning. “Won’t you have one, too?” the older man invited, feeling just a bit guilty at sending him out in the cold. . Busy with his duties, which he unfailingly performs no matter how routine and uninspiring they may be, the office boy flipped back: “No, I guess not. It might keep me awake ”

OTHER OPINION We Give the Big Boys a Fat Present [The American Leader, Milwaukee, Wis.] Asa result of the Supreme Court’s decision on the AAA, $200,000,000 will be refunded by the government to the processors. This money represents the processing taxes collected from all ol us, a penny here and 2 cents there and a nickel somewhere else. Ever since the AAA was passed, we have been paying through the nose to the butcher and the baker and the cotton mill owner. The prices went up in a hurry when the processors saw a chance to take in more cash. They added on to our prices not only, the amount of the tax which they had to pay. but as much more as they could get away with. Now the Supreme Court has refunded the money to them. But are we going to get any of ours back? We should say not! The total result of the whole AAA fiasco has been that we paid a big bonus to the packers as a reward for their skill in robbing the consumers. The AAA w r as designed to fleece the city consumer in the first place. However, it was some slight consolation to know that at least part of the high prices we paid went to help the farmers, so they could buy a little more city goods. But the government caught us coming and going. The farmer has his money and probably won’t toe asked to pay it back, chiefly because he has spent it all. The government is short $200,000,000 which it was counting on to use for general expenses, since it had to advance other money to pay farmers. And where will the government go to make up this $200,000,000? Right back to us, probably! Since the Supreme Court rules out anything that taxes the rich for the benefit of the poor, the only thing to do is to find out some further way to tax the poor—a new salc*s tax scheme or income taxes on lower is ' * '“V- • .>-, s 1 '-s,?.

I don’t believe WPA workers want to be unreasonable, but we can’t understand why we are sent from one end of town to another so we must pay from 20 cents to 50 cents car fare daily when there are projects near our homes. A grade school boy could make better assignments. Surely this isn’t a “pay-back” racket with the car company, is it Mr. Coy? (Contract trucks are all we can stand.)

Dorn', Shelbyville All the taxpayers of the country are getting a raw deal. Just why do we pay our white-collared officials fabulous salaries, and unlimited expense accounts, to make a toy of the real problems of the nation? This is more than any logicalminded American can understand. The real problems facing America are unemployment and charity, and the class that needs charity the most is the aged poor. It is a crime the way Congress has treated the old-age pension bills. This is one of the first things that should have come up last year, instead of being delayed until it was finally filibustered out. At this session, Congress should have begun where it stopped last year, and passed an appropriation bill. Every relief worker knows the conditions in which the aged poor in cities have to live. They may not be actually starving, but they are living in prolonged torture. It is a disgrace that congressmen can be so heartless as to neglpct and push aside legislation for this worthy class, and yet pour out billions to farmers—a class that never could be satisfied. In war times, w r hen farmers were getting better than $2.50 a bushel

If the American business man had been helped in proportion to the farmer, you would see no unemployment now, and the worker would eat the farmer back into real prosperity. I’m glad the soldiers finally succeeded in getting their bonus. Let’s give something to someone besides the farmer. B .B B CHARGES SMITH TRIED TO CONCEAL FACTS By Perry Rule, Bringhurst A1 Smith in another one of his baloney speeches attempted to conceal the true purpose of his organization—the Liberty League—by wrapping the American flag about himself and his group of benefitseeking allies. A1 said that it was hard for him to do it, but perhaps he thought it was worth the money; evidently the contributors thought it a good investment. From his talk, the conclusions are that the organization’s purpose is to function as an auxiliary to the G. O. P. stand-patters, hoping to help them win control of the government. This would make his organization, because of service rendered, eligible to profitable grants, among them a hands-off policy toward big business. A1 stated there were three classes: the rich, poor and middle classes. He said the poor had nothing to pay with and that the middle class will pay. This indicated that he is working for exoneration of the rich. A1 gave his hearers to understand that he did not want the rich soaked. Those who are wise arc wondering if Shouse and A1 are not soaking the rich, judging from the names of the contributors to their organization, and the amounts contributed. At the close of the talk a gentlerr n from the South who introduced A1 said that language “is inadequate to voice appreciation for contributors from all who approve of their plan.” The desire for contdibutors seems to be foremost in the minds of the pretended upliffcars of humanity. B B B THINKS AL HAS FORGOTTEN EARLY DAYS By L. J. Benson “Let Freedom Ring” was the most timely cartoon of the day! The “old brown derby” is antiquated, frayed at the edges and cracked. Only jealously and bitterness over personal defeat could prompt a man to belittle an erstwhile friend, denounce his party and make himself the laughing stock of the nation. The most significant feature about the cartoon was the fact that the

wife has been absent without explanation for many years, usually seven. The term is derived from Alfred Tennyson’s poem, “Enoch Arden.” Q—What kind of light was used in the ancient lighthouse of Pharos? A—lt was lighted by fires, fed with oak logs. These had to be carried up the tower 100 feet, and the light above the water, including the height of the island, was 590 feet. Q —Are there schools which have classes for men in beauty culture? A—Central Beauty College, International Beauty and Barber School, 342 E. Washington-st, Indianapolis. Q—Can the word nickel, meaning the name of a metal or the 5-cent piece, be spelled nickle? A—Nickle is the name of a woodpecker, especially the European green woodpecker. The name of the metal and of the coin is always spelled nickel. Q —Hot; many qualified voters are there in the United States? A—The total number of natives and naturalized citizens over 21 years of age is approximately 65,000,000. The total number who qualified by registration in 1932 was 48,962,530, and the number ihus qualified in 1934 was 47,959,928. Q —what does the name Itchtucknee mean? , A—lt is a Seminole-Creek Indian name meaning “blistered tobacco.”

old, battered, cracked Liberty League bell was being rung by the G. O. P., who, for want of leadership, are willing to accept a man whose own party turned “thumbs down” in ’32 and on whom the nation registered its veto four years earlier. The “disgruntled warrior” may find that the way back to esteem and confidence is a long, long road and that the Democratic Party is willing for the G. O. P. to pick up the “hitch-hikers” who desire to “take a walk.” During the years when the brown derby was traveling from the lower East Side to Uptown it professed to be the laboring man’s friend. However, en route, it amassed a few millions of its own and lost its interest in “the forgotten man.” It also lost its sense of direction, and fairness and party loyalty. The President of the United States faced an emergency that no other American leader has ever faced. He met it courageously and with the approval of a majority of his fellow citizens. It is only by tearing down the President’s program that the G. O. P. can even hope to win in November. If you would know the strength of that program ask the man with a WPA job; the young man in a CCC camp; the farmer who benefited through the “Triple A”; the home owner whose mortgage indebtedness has been scaled down; the miner whose living conditions has been improved and all other classes except the privileged few representing selflst interests and much wealth. ADVENTURE BY POLLY LOIS NORTON Beyond the hill lies that I seek, Over the tip of the mountain peak, Or where the languorous river flows Down to the sea, there it goes! Across the blistering sand it lies, Deep in the swamp where the bittern cries, Down in the depths of the salty sea I hear its voice tempting me. The wind comes coaxing at my ear, From far, far place. While I hear, The hearth fire glows with welcome light— I’ll go tomorrow —I’ll stay tonight!

Your... Health Bu dr. morris fisiibein

WHEN the baby has reached the age of 8 to 10 months, it should be weaned. In the weaning process, the bottle gradually should supplant breast feeding. If weaned abruptly, without having had time to get used to a bottle, a baby may refuse to eat for a time and, in this way, harm its health. If the nursing infant has been accustomed from birth to taking one bottle feeding a day, the weaning process, of course, is not so difficult. A strong-minded or stubborn child may refuse to take artificial feeding for even 24 or 36 hours; but it will eat, if it gets hungry enough. It should, of course, be given water, since it is dangerous for an infant to do without water. Before a child is weaned it may be necessary to give it extra food of various kinds. Surplus vitamin D is not needed in its diet if the baby can be given sunshine baths or ultra-violet rays in some other form. But this is not readily available to all infants, the doctor usually advising the mother to give cod liver oil or viosterol after the first month. Nursing babies seldom develop scurvy. However, it is wise to include citrus fruit juices, particularly orange juice, as a part of the baby's diet. Incidentally, most physicians delay prescribing orange juice until the sixth or seventh month. tt tt a Addition of other foods to the diet depends somewhat on the amount of milk the baby gets from its mother. It is well, however, to include additional foods by the seventh or eighth month. Among foods first added are cereals, vegetable purees, scraped meats, beef, liver and egg. Give these foods one at a time, just to make certain the baby can handle them satisfactorily. As artificial feeding begins, be certain that the cow’s milk is fresh, clean, free from preservatives. See that it is whole milk, and not skimmed milk; that it contains no dangerous germs or poisonous substances, that it has been pasteurized or certified, and that it has passed the standards of a suitable health department. Milk should usually be given the baby within 24 hours after it is delivered. If kept more than 43 hours, there may be changes detriment to the baby's health. Many physicians prefer that all milk given to babies be boiled. If this is done, be sure to see that the child gets extra vitamin D and orange juice, since the anti-scurvy vitamin is destroyed in boiled milk. Do not feed the child frozen milk. Delicate infants may become sick from taking milk that has been frozen, because of concentration of fat on the surface. The superstition that weaning in the summer is dangerous does not hold true today. In an earlier day, summer weaning was rather risky, because milk available in the hot weather was not usually safe.

TODAY’S SCIENCE BY DAVID DIETZ

ONE of the brightest pages in Twentieth Century progress is the advance in psychiatry. So rapid have been the strides in the treatment and care of the mentally ill that it is doubtful if many people realize how much has been accomplished in a few decades. The triumphant and spectacular development of this medical specialty is told in language which the layman can understand in “Twentieth Century Psychiatry.” Author of the book is Dr. William A. White, superintendent of St. Elizabeth’s Hospital in Washington, D. C., and one of the world’s most distinguished psychiatrists. The first great advance in the treatment of the insane was the abolition of the use of restraint, Dr. White says. The old Idea was to use physical restraint or drugs. One. was as bad as the other, he says, and both prevented the recovery of the patient. When restraint was abandoned, something had to take its place. “And that something was intelligence,” Dr. White says. Two great movements at the turn of the century gave psychiatry its great impetus. These were Dr. Freud’s psychoanalysis and the mental hygiene movement, Dr. White says.
