AUGUST 28, 1922 SAFETY FIRST Three thousand men and women will gather in I Stroit today to devlie means of cutting down the Aaste of human life through accident. 0 La.t year In this country 75,583 persons met unrimely iMth through various kinds of mishap a,out 400 Ire. than th toll In the year 1313. There wai a flight falling off In the number of auto accidents, an increa in drownln. In street ar accidents and In min?. "vVhrn It Is considered that the fatal accidents omprl but a nmal part of the heavy tell due to -arelrne.s or preventAbl accident, the total loss to the country from thto source becomes enormous. For every person who Is killed, there are perhaps ten who go through life crippled to fome degree and Just to that decree, less efficient and more likely to become a charpe upon the public. The trar4y of it Is that most of these accidents ould be prevented by pome thought and the us of devices that protect Life. In one factory alone, the use of gloven to protect hand of workers from crime and dirt was found to have been responlb'e for seventy-five percent of accidents for which compensatory damages were awarded and paid. That there are 3,000 men and women connected More or lefs directly with Industry who are trying to solve this problem prophesies that the solution fcr many of the tragedies will be found. This city 1ä rltally interested In this problem and will bs more interested as the Industrie grow and. .t larger proportion of the population becomes engaged In the use of machinery. What can be done m the matter of elimination of accidenti throufh education and safeguards is shown by a comparison with England and Wales. A-hich are even more largrely industrial in population han this country. The number of deaths from accidents of all kinds in those countries is les than half that c! this country In proportion to the total population. In this country auto accidents stand second on the list, exceeded only by falls. There were 3,536 dath in auto accidents in the year 1920. All of these could hare been prevented by safe driving and proper light. It is probable that half of these deaths were due to defective lights or ioo strong 'ights. Human life i the one aet of the nation which it is difficult to replace. "Every person killed takes away a ml value from the forces for the common velfare. Let It bs hoped that the Safety Congress will de vis reasonable regulations which can be adopted r. every state in order to cut down the tragedy from

thi. source.

THE CON INDUSTRY Out In Denver thirty-three men axe tn Jail on a chrg of having fleeced various victims of a total tar above a million dollars. The ehlef of this can is an old man who never .orked a day in hi life, who has been known for years as a parasite, who has been standing beyond tho little group that was attracted by the lavish spending of other people's money. The million and more which this crew took away from those they Imposed upon came through deview and trips as old as the present commercial vystem. Thoee who refused to bet upon "fixed" horse raff, rulllbly Invested In stocks which they believed this crowd knew rrould rapidly rise In value because . f secret information as to etrlkes of oil or gold. In every case, the victim who parted with his noney did o under the belief that he was grettin something for nothing anl that he was obtaining an unfair advantage of ome other person. Every one of thee victims had the hope of taking away dollars from some one else, the savings perhaps of a life time and were In their hearts brothers of this rang of rwlndlers who will now ray the penalty for their crime. No honest man wa ever cheated by a confidence man. It takes a potential crook or a twisted mind to fail for the schemes they present, for they ueeeed my appeallnlg to the entiment of theft and the appetite for the unearned. Not that this excuses In any way the profesion of the con man nor should It lighten tho sentences which they richly deserve. They hav refused to work. They have fattened on Idleness. They have 'cren encumbrances upon the eirth. rating food vhich should b turned to blood and bone and v.ucle of those who contribute something to the ommon store. But it is rather a shame that when they march to :he prfson cells, they are not locketeppej with their victims who have also something to learn about honesty and morality and might complete their Gucation behind bars. Thirty-three crooks are caught. Ten times that -.umber are exposed In the true light by their con;i'butIon of the million. Men who are content with '.or.est dollars never fall for such lures or schemes.

FORD'S BOMB

It is rather unfortunate that at the very moment ho president assured the country that there 1 no . rii- in tho railway and coal strikes and that he 'r.f. ler.tiy expected that these matters would be rettted. Henry Ford was Issuing an order to close '.: plant. The result of that order demonstrates the big ;!u which the fliwer occupies in our scheme of h;r.,-. By that order a vast army of men will be thrown ut cf work. The estimate runs up to two :r.llLicr.. when those affected, by the manufacture of i" r.iw materials for flivvers are Included. Fords vn employ s will number much more than a ia.ir.er of a million. Ford charges that the country Is at the mercy of ft conspiracy tw regards steel and coal, and he names th- owners of coal mines and the steel trust nd labor !edei-e as the conspirator. He will ruike no more cars, he says until he can

buy ths r?pntial at reasonable price. and hiaction at once indict the department of commerce vnder Mr. Hoover of fiking when It proclaim that there Is no profiteering in cal. By this dramatic act. Ford challenges the government nd the administration to show that It policy or lack of policy has not permittel selfish proup to prey upon society. By his bold ttrokr, he questions thoe platitudes of the president that every man ha. a right to work when he wish' and to quit when h pleases. For If that be true, what becomes of the right of these two million men who will be Idle wher, the maklnr of flivvers stop? These men have no voice in either toal or steel prices. They have no quarrel with Ford over wages end conditions. They are suddenly and violently jerked from their Jobs and added to ihe army of the unemployed. If,what Ford says is true and his charge that the country is gripped by a group of coal 'lind steel profiteers, - th'e two million workers who will be Jobless can Justly trace their condition to that euorce. If it be not true, then the Jobs of two million men become dependent upon the vagaries or whims of a man with a mad idea. That hardly fit with t"he theories advanced in the last presidential message t;at the rights of labor and of workers include the tifht to work. Thre can b no suggestion that Ford in closing his factories is pre&sed by any motive except the one he gives. He quits at a time whe.i there is a bigger demand for flivvers than he can fill. He quits t a time when he La making more money than his plant has ever earned before. The result of this act can be plainly foreseen. There will be slackening in other industries. There will be discontent and unrest beyond that which already exists-. It is quite likely that the example he fets will be followed by others. The president jliou!d revamp his complacent message to the people. There is a crli;, when conditions are such that two million men are thrown cut of work at the edict of one man. Maybe concress has the answer.

WATCH THIS BABY There is trouble, turmoil and torment in a Jersey City hcspital over a baby, or rather two babies. A wealthy woman and her husband, who i a itatistlcian for a nationally known concern, insists that their baby was a boy, while the nurses brought in a little girl for them to welcome. They insist that the nurses made a stupid mistake t nd that somewhere in the hospital two babies were switched and the wrong one was delivered to them. It so happens that the hospital did have one other new baby, a boy, whose parents are from a eomewhat different social station than this family and differ greatly in education, customs and traditions. Those who believe firmly in heredity would do well to watch these babies when they leave the hospital and twenty-five years from now check up on the facts and see how they fit their theory. For it is about settled that the little girl will have to go to the luxurious home and the halfconvinced couple will accept it as their own child. She will be petted, cared for, ent to a girls' college, and be fitted for a social career. Twenty ears from now he will be a belle, highly cultured and used to the ways cf wealth. Just suppose that the nurses did make a mistake. Under the theory of heredity, this girl should exhibit ome far different tendencies than those to which she will becrme accustomed In her home. Instead of grastinc a college education, she ought to prefer cabarets. The boy, when he leaves the hospital, will probably have to care for himself quite early in life. It will not be strange if he is found at the age of five upon a street corner, shooting craps for the pennies ho makes selling papers. If he gets college education he will have to earn it. Will that boy. raised in the streets, show a marked aptitude for mathematics and inherit that trait of mind which mikes abstruse problems very cimple? Just as a guess, it is quite likely that both these babies will become exactly what the conditions and training they get makes them. That is one reason why huge taxes for schools are not burdens and vhy the day is coming wh?n college training will he Siven as a matter of social Investment to every boy and girl. In the meantime pity that mother who is sure ehe pave birth to a boy and now holds a girl baby to her lreast. Her thoughts through the years to come vill be a study for psychologists and a matter of pity to all mothers.

WAITS L THE JUNGLE In Malay Jungles, Explorer Carveth Wells found a native who had trained a monkey to climb trees and pick cocoanuts. Are we not overlooking a great bet ir the labor possibilities of the monkey tribe? Of all animals that have been domesticated to do man's work, the monkey has the greatest possibilities both in strength and intelligence. The horse, for Instance is a weakling alongside a .rcrilla. As for intelligence, the monkey's possibilities will be recognized by any one who remembers for.Ful. ne famous chimpanzee in vaudeville. A good foreman could keep a crew of monkeys working quite efficiently at such tasks as piling cordwood, moving pip Iron or unloading coal. It's all a matter of training. The monkey, with his super-instinet of imitation, is notorious for mimicking anything he -sees a man do. No doubt, monkeys could be trained to write editorials, fit in Congress and help direct the movies. Naturally, the sugg-stin sounds a trifle ridiculous. Tut the monkey as a worker seems no mors impossible than the wild hore must have seemed to primitive man when he began training It to become a beast of burden. The probability also exists, that the monkey's intelligence could be highly increased by stimulating their 'endocrine glands; An idiotic cretin by judiciously administered thyroid extract, can be converted into a being of normal Intelligence. Why Isn't it possible to do the same with monkeys? Training them to tasks would be slow. So. for 'hat matter, is training even a naturally Intelligent dog to do tricks. Or a human. Wild and bizarre as the suggestion may seem, it is entirely rousible that glandular research in the next ten years will open the way to tripling or quadrupling monkey intelligence. By breeding and training a few million apes or gorillas, man might shift from his shoulders part of his heavy labor burden. One of these days, at any rate, the gland doctors instead of. concerting on trying to rejuvenate broken-down old men are going to eee what they can do toward humanizing the monkey. The result may be startling. o New Yellowstone geyser spouted mud 300 feet. This will make "Norrie politicians Jealous.

in which nri; pot calxä the KI7TTLK, BLACK. f"outh Bend. Ind.. Aug. 2 4. 1922. TO WURMAN: How-do you get away with it? Saw your pathetic iter.i in Wednesday's eidtion of the the Hoosier Scandal Sheet (front page) and I wmdered ct first whether cr not it was a funeral notice; howtver. after going over It a second time

I sot It. I finally got wise that you wished your readers to know that you have a humorist on your staff, aud took such means as you thought best to enlighten the fickle public, hence your front Pge "add." IFave been reading -the Tower for quite some time, not because I want to laugh that's impossible but Just to see, day by day, Iwm much closer you are drawing toward the Booby-ILntch in your effort at trying to bt funny. Your comedy would make Al Jolson blush with .'hame, and Charlie Chaplin would be in your way. If tlie Tower is considered funny, belie o mo the World War uns only a comedy sketch in three aits, and a scream, to My the least. Why not subscribe for "Judg " Tuck." "Whiz-Bang." "Life and a few more side-minting publications, take them for about twenty years, perhaps you may gain a few pointers, and, Incidentally, get wise to what humor really Is. Tour Item of Wednesday begins: "Ever get up In the morning with a grouch, or go home In the evening 'all out of humor.' " etc. Now there is a good one, a real Joke, because ever since I have been plodding through your lines, vainly seeking a "kick." I have been under the imprecision that you much go home in the evening "all out of humor," and go to the office the samo way, for I'm sure I fall to see any humor in your articles, therefore, how come? likewise, -,ow d? ou get that way? What do 'ou me in humor? Vom, Ju are funny, like a crutch ; )ur feeble attempts at rlb.Uckllns remind me of a tick woman's cry for help. Have a few more in my bag of tricks, and if you don't mind, will fl3sh some of them on you in the nr future. Meanwhile, pull off some more about Jake Heckaman; Joe Grand Leader; the fish you never i'et. your closed job; nnd your flying trip to Pain Beach (Ind.) Your "audience" has been accustomed to that stuff for a long time an ' expects it, but if. by any chant;-, you should run acros somethir funny don't be backward about putting It in, it will surprise your customers and frive my face a ehnnce to crack. I'm sure a real

Joke would be more than welcome. Yours for fun. HOCH ALA VITCH. P. S. Why not change your title to "The Dally Moan." That sounds more appropriate. Hochalavitch. whoever you are, we want to fiy that yoa are a brick. Just the ctme. If you could Just sit down once every week and put us on th pan and permit us to use your panning each Monday morning in this column, we would b; truly grateful, as you have no idea how we hate to work Sundays. An 1 by the way. Hoch, old girl, why not use your right name In the future? It would gio class to your writings, nr.d the reader's Interest would ho :r.creaced 100 percent. We may be peculiar, but some how or other we have never cared for anonymous communications or anonymous acts of any kind. It always kind a looks to us liko the -perpetrator was scared of the cors. A long time ago when we were a kid in s.:hool some playful fellow hit us behind the ear with a Yale lock, knocking u out of our seat. He threw the lock annonymously. but a wf learned later, purely in a spirit of fun. Ever since that memorable diy we've alwajs been sort of prejudiced against people who conceal their identity, but persist in heaving bricks, kniv, beehives, old bottles and other little knicknacUs. It's been a long time since we've been compared to either Al Jolson or Charley Chaplin. Ye Gods! Al

and Charley will be hear about it.

sore if they

And Hock, old kid. say something bout

we note you your looking

forward to cracking your face over a joke in The Tower some day. If you are who we think you are, your face ha been cracked for a good many years. But seriously, Hock, ch er up. You undoubtedly have dyspepsia, but you may outgrow. Anyhow, try ti look on the bright side of things and as Anna Eva Fay would say, everything may come out all right. Don't let The Tower worry youl If you are a regular subscriber to The News-Times, we think we cculd arrange to have the circulation department deliver you e paper with The Tower clipped out, if y;u desire it. And, anyway, we will refund your money cheerfully if thus other plan doesn't suit. You could ave up this money and buy a nice big bottle of T.inlac or Swamp Boot, and we would be willing to bet you would bo yourself again, maybe, by Spring.

Above all things. Hoch, keep cheerful. Remember smiles will win the war.

YOUR HEALTH

By Dr. R. S Copeland

Where is there a woman in the world who does not at some time or another suffer from backache. While this symptom is not monopolised" by women, it la almost universal among the gentler Eex, and is comparatively infrequent in men.' In many cases it is due to eome trouble with th pelvic organs. In

these, attention to the primary con-J

dition will bring relief. Women's muscles are not no hard and tireless as those of men. Consequently, the gentler sex is more liable to suffer from fatigue. One of the first places a woman feete fatigue is th back. Perhaps one of the most frequent factors in producing bnekacho is the faulty footwear .some women wear. It is amazing what relief frora backache und neckache follows proper adjustment of the shoes. The height of the heels has a decided effect on the alignment of the spine and the carriage of tho trunk Muscle strain is produced by thi--abnormal position. When the ten million men wore examined in selective draft, it was a surprise to discover how many had flat feet. This weakness of the foot may h responsible for pains in the legs and In the back. When the

backache is due to flat-foot. It maybe overcome sometimes by the following exercL-e: Kise on the toes, roll the weight to the outer sid, of the fret, and then drop tho feet flat on the. floor. Repeat these exercises for five minutes twice a day. Continued for some time, thi.s method will help to overcome tho fiat-foot, and may relieve the backache. Chronic constipation is another cause for backache. Until the inttstine i.s emptied the symptoms may continue. The absorption of pus from t"eth tonsils or other organs may produce muscular pains here and there. Including backache. Eyestrain may have nci'k'irlip and shoulderache among other symptoms. Kidney discj.se. lumbago, floating kidney, diabetes and various other conditions may produce backache. Trouble with the backbone, such as inflammation, fracture, displacement an l curvature of tho spine, is another cause for backache. I'ktr and cancer of the stomach hämorrhoid.-', and other deep-ratcd inflammations may result in backa che. Don't endure backache forever. Find out what Is wrong and have the trouble corrected.

SHIPS Today, if I were free. I think. I'd wander to the river's brink And watch the great ships teaming by The stream below, above the sky And eee those vessels bearing then The countless hopes of mortal men. And I could lie upon the shore And glimpse the mother at the door Watching and waiting, every trip. To see the coming of the ship. For that great ship that carries grain Also brings" home her boy again. I wonder if the wheelsman knows. As he the guiding rudder throws. How many hopes and dreams and fears Are burdened In the ship he teers?

Depending on his watchful eyes The laughter of a lifetime lies. Men write his cargo down as. ore,' Or grain or coal, but it is more It's woman's smiles and women's tears And little children's happy years, For human destinies await The safe arrival of his freight. We are but smaller packet ships Set out upon our various trips. Chartered for gold, or skill or fame. Listed and registered by name. Yet burdened with the smiles and tearsr Our own must know throughout the years. The women and the children wait For us ach evening at the gate. Glad when we safely come from town And desolate if we go down. Bitter their years if we shall fail

To hold the course and breast the gale. (Copyright. 1922. by Edgar A. Guest)

Perfect Control

At the head of all great American business institutions it is customary to find a man with perfect control of the pulsating market for his product or service. The progress of each depends upon timely adjustments which are vitally important for smooth operation. Has it occurred to you that you hc.dth depends upon an uninterrupted flow of nerve energy which is manufactured in your brain and carried by your nerve? to all parts of yovr body through the Spinal Column? When the nerves become impinged through falls, jolts, jars and improper habits of life, this impingement restricts the normal amount of nerve energy that is required for the normal function of tho human system. Disease is the result in that part of ihc body in which this impinged nerve or nerves serve. CHIROPRACTIC SPINAL ADJUSTMENTS eliminate this nerve impingement by adjusting the bonc3 of the Spinal Column to their normal positions, thereby removing; the cause of disease HEALTH resulting.
