Hoosier Vagabond

SHERMAN, N. M., Dec. 11.—-If you were to go about asking people, from the poorest desert rat to the richest banker, who 1s the most wonderful man in southwestern New Mexico, I am sure you would get but one answer. It would be: “Why, Dr. Stovall, of course.” Dr. Richard F. Stovall has been the sage and the savior of Mimbres Valley for more than 40 vears. He is an excellent physician, and a man who has literally given his life to helping people, without giving a hoot about the money. Dr. Stovall was born in Texas, but he went to medical school in Louisville, Kv, After his graduation he served a year at a “lunatic asylum,” as he calls it, in Louisville, And then he came out here. That was in 1384. He set up in Deming, N. M,, two years after that town was founded. “No, I didn’t come for my health,” he says. "My health was fine. I came to make a living.” He was company doctor for the Southern Pacific Railroad. Then he spent 10 vears in Mexico as company doctor for a big American mine. He still likes the Mexican people. And they worship him Dr. Stovall's life in these sparsely settled spaces has been an epic. He has ridden as far as 150 miles on horseback to tend a sick man. He has fixed up broken jaws with the wire from old-fashioned beerbottle tops. = ” »

Working Under Difficulties They were still raiding Indians in those early days. If Dr. Stovall got a message for a long ride across the mountains, he wouldn't go in the daytime. He'd wait till darkness and then ride all night, to escape the Indians. He never carried a gun. In those days practically all his surgery was done right on the spot. The kitchen table of a ranchers home was the operating table. He'd boil all the sheets in the house for swabs. He'd get a cowboy to give the ancsthetic, and a Mexican boy to hold a lantern,

The first marriage ceremony without the word “obey” was the one in 1840 which made John Wood and Margaret Gresham husband and wife. It was performed by the Rev. A. Wiley, who ran the Methodist church at the southwest corner of Meridian St. and the Circle from 1837 to 1841. Item 3. As early as 1894 Indianapolis had four boys’ choirs— those at Holy Innocents’ Church, Crace Cathedral, Christ Church and St. Paul's. The one at Holy Innocents’ was the pioneer not only in the City, but in the State. As a matter of fact, only two choirs antedate it in the West—the Cathedral in Chicago and St. Paul's in Springfield; Ill. Item 4. The first successful Hasenpfeffer in Indianapolis was the work of a Mr. Protzmann who used to make soap on the banks of the Canal in the neighborhood of McCarty St. (cirea 1840), Not having vinegar, Mr. Protzmann pickled his rabbit in a bath of buttermilk.

Several speakers were discussing the general topic, “Business in Government.” The audience seemed conservative enough. It applauded warmly the voung head of the New York Stock BExchange, William M. Martin. It booed the Chairman of SEC, Jerome Frank. It applauded conservative Senator Robert A, Taft—and then booed him. Those boos resounded over the air as a warning which the politically wise will heed From the audience, Senator Taft was asked about the Ohio relief situation. He replied that no one was starving. Whereupon this audience, fresh from applauding the head of the Stock Exchange, burst into derisive boos. Senator Taft extricated himself by a neat compromise, He said no one was starving. It was only that some people were hungry and that politics was at the bottom of it. 5 = =

WASHINGTON, Sunday —Friday afternoon, in New York City, I spent an hour with my son, Elliott, whe was in an automobile accident recently. I must say that the loss of two front teeth does cause rather

a change in his appearance. He and Ruth were so fortunate not to be more seriously hurt, that we can only be devoutly grateful in spite of what they have suffered. In the evening, I went to a dinner given by some people interested in “The Open Road.” This group of young men tried originally to promote education and understanding between this country and Europe by arranging tours at a minimum cost and giving people the opportunity of really knowing people of their own kind in their homes abroad. Now that the war has put a stop to these vacation trips, they are attempting to do something which 1 think of great value to our education as citizens in this country, They propose to take graduate students, people who will be teachers or doctors or nurses or public officials, to study different parts of our own country. This will be of great value to them, because they will see that various parts of this country have to contribute to other parts of it, and they will also see the difficulties which exist in different regions.

Ranchers and Mexicans and miners ana squatters by the thousand owe their lives to Dr. Stovall. Yet he has never kept a book and never sent a bill. He has received checks tor medical services as much as 30 vears after the services were performed. People paid what they could and when they could. Many years ago Dr. Stovall's practice became so extensive that he puilt a sanitarium here in the valley along the Mimbres River. Water comes out of the springs at 130 degrees, and has healing powers for diseases of the nerves and muscles. His cffice is here, and his home. It is far from any main highway, at the end of a dirt road. Yet in summer the place is full to its capacity of 35 patients. He reads everything that happens in the medical world.

Gallup Volers—

Ask More Regulation

Of Labor

By Dr. George Gallup PRINCETON, N. J., Dec. 11.—With the cost of living going up, many business experts, including Isidor Lubin, Commissioner of Labor Statistics, see increased industrial strife during the coming year. The importance of public opinion in industrial warfare is reeognized by both employers and employees, who compete for public sympathy and support. Where does the public stand today? Do

labor unions continue to be popular? How much sentiment is there at this time for greater Federal regulation of unions? What is the public's attitude toward the feud between the C. I. O. and the A. F. of L.? These questions will take on increased importance if, in 1040, improved business conditions bring a growth of strikes. The American Institute of Public Opinion, by means of surveys repeated at intervals, has kept a running chart of public sentiment toward labor unions and labor problems, The latest soundings of public opinion indicate three basic attitudes toward labor todav 1. The great majority of voters (74 per cent), as judged by the survey, continue to be in favor of labor unionism. Labor's right to organize for collective bargaining has received consistent support from the public. Even at the time of the sit-down strikes in 1937, which Institute surveys found to be highly unpopular, the majority attitude was favorable to unionism as a means of expressing labor's will, and the same attitude exists today. 2. There is strong sentiment, however, for greater government regulation of labor unions, More than three voters in every four (79 per cent) interviewed in the survey favor increased regulation. These voters give two main reasons for their belief—first, protec= tion of the public from violence and disorder, and second, protection of labor itself from possible exploitation by its own leaders. 3. An overwhelming majority of voters believe that the C. I. O. and A. F. of L. should settle their differences. A patching up of this feud would, in the opinion of the voters, be beneficial to business and to labor itself, Especially significant is the fact

The farm vote for greater regulation of unions is higher than the vote of any other group. The following few comparisons serve to illustrate the difference in the survey. “Do you think labor unions should be regulated to a greater extent by the Federal Government?”

that labor union members reached in the survey are just as strongly in favor of peace between the rival unions as the general public is. More than 90 per cent of the union members interviewed think settlement of the feud would be good for business and for labor. 4 8 5 HE greatest sentiment for increased government regulation of labor unions comes from the farm population. Since 1935, when the Institute began its con=tinuous surveys of public opinion, farmers have been found the least sympathetic of all groups toward the aims and activities of labor unions, The farmer's attitude probably springs from the fact that, in many cases, he is an employer of labor himself. So long as his attitude persists, any movement toward the formation of a farm-er-labor party—the dream of many a politician—probably faces an uphill climb,

A comment typical of the majority attitude is expressed by one voter in the survey as follows: “An organization as big as a labor union today should be regulated just as business combinations and insurance companies are regulated for the good of the public.” Many other reasons are also cited. Some voters believe in regulation to “keep unions under control,” to “prevent violence and avoid strikes,” to make the unions “more responsible,” to check “radical tendencies.” Others take the position that unions should be regulated for their own good, in order to prevent ‘graft and corruption” and to foster “better organization.” Those who, on the other hand, oppose government regulation hold that the “government has its fingers in too many pies already,” and that the “strength of unions

is their independence.” In the opinion of one voter, typical of this group, greater government control of unions would be “the first step toward fascism.”

HE labor feud between Wile liam Green and John 1. Lewis has continued for nearly four years, despite many attempts by President Roosevelt and other leaders to patch it up. Virtually all the voters polled express a desire to see the rival leaders make peace, and among the union members included in the poll there seems to be little feeling that a continuation of the feud is justified. : Thus, 94 per cent of the union members polled said it would be a good thing for business if the two unions settled their differ= ences, and 93 per cent said they thought, it would also be a good thing for labor,

Chicagoan Roams U. S., Halts Here in Paralysis Virus Hunt

Dr. J. A. McClintock Hopes to Co-ordinate Work Of All Scientists in War On Disease.

FOR THE PAST YEAR and a half a rather small man, whose eyes behind pince-nez are never still in their constant observations, has roamed the United States on the trail of the illusive infantile paralysis

germ.

He is Dr. J. A. McClintock, physician and Chicago scientist.

The doctor, who already has been in all is visiting every |

United States, scientist, laboratory, hospital and medical institution he can find in an attempt to co-ordinate America’s fight on infantile paralysis—a disease caused by a germ no one has ever seen, “Infantile Paralysis is gaused by a virus which contains a germ that we know is there but never have been able to find with the microscope,” said Dr. McClintock, who 1s conferring with medical men here, Dr, McClintock believes that the modern motion picture projector may enable scientists to expand the image of a virus to a size where the germ may be seen by the human eye. This method was used to determine the exact shape of the tuberculosis germ, he explained. 8. 88 “SMALLPOX, WHICH IS caused by a germ in virus, is almost wiped out and we have located the smallpox germ,” Dr, McClintock said. “But infantile paralyisis has not proved as simple as that. “There is only one successful method to combat this disease, which slowly paralyzes its victim until it reaches the heart. Then death comes. The one method is a serum, which can be gotten only from a human being who has had the disease and recovered. “In most diseases which are fought with serum, the material for the serum can be gotten by inoculating animals and then making a blood serum, No one has ever been able to do this in the war against infantile. “I was in Detroit during their last epidemic and I saw children walking along the street and suddenly convulse in a swift attack of the disease. Very few people recover if they are seriously stricken and most are permanently affected. The ordinary symptoms of the disease, Dr. McClintock explained, are a stiff feeling in the neck accompanied by a fever. The more quickly the disease is discovered and serum injected, the better is the chance for recovery. ” ” ” “WHAT I AM TRYING to do,” sald Dr, McClintock, “is to coordinate scientists and physicians so that our research will not overlap. “Our fight against this dread disease must be carried on swift= ly so that we may save more lives. There is no efficiency in several men doing

knowledge and organize our ener= gies. “In this matter many scientists are selfish and wish to complete their experiments alone and then announce what they have done, Also, many of them are stubborn as mules and will keep hammer= ing away at one idea even after it has been disproven, “The infantile paralysis germ enters the human body through the mouth and nasal passages,” Dr. McClintock said. “Since thia is true, it is plausible, I think, to assume that food, especialiy milk, may spread the disease. Also ine sects play a prominent part in tha spreading of a disease, The come mon house fly, the curse of man= . kind, may very well cause many of our serious infantile paralysis epidemics.
