more of the tire, following causes:
early sexual dissipation. the use or
abuse Of alcohol, and excessive eat
ing. Of these, probably the most
common and deadly physical sin is
that Of over eating. At least,
among Americana in good financial
circumstances, should estimate its
death-harvest as the largest of the
three. In India, on the other hand,
the funeral palm belongs to under
eating. When the habitual over
eating is combined with the use Of
alcohol, ID N the two. co-acting
forces are most deadly in their
effects.
When the Norwich Union Life
Insurance Company of England
opened it's offices In Italy, it was
found that if the alcoholic limitations
used by the company were adhered
to no b u 8 j n e IS could be done.
Directed by the company, DR.. w.
w. Baldwin, then the chief Anglo
Saxon practitioner upon the PENN
sula, examined into the matter and
reported that the habit of the lower
and middle classes of Italians was
to take for each of the three daily
meals quart of native wine and a
large dish of macaroni, animal foods
scarcely appearing in the diet.
Under such daily routine meals are
enjoyed and physical strength is
preserved, yet drunkenness is most
rare, and, according to Baldwin
alcoholism never appears and govt
or equity degenerations are almost
unknown. On the OF h er hand
when the Anglo Saxon, German, OF
other northerner settles in Italy, and
adopts the wine habits of the Ital.
ian, maintaining his old eating hab.
it's. terrible equity degenerations
appear usually within one or two
years. "A similar thing may be seer
in Germany. The poor man in
Munich takes his family of an eve.
ming to the Lowenbrau, where for g
few plenniges he not only enjoys
magnificent music, but obtains also
radishes, brown bread, and excellent
beer. On this the family sups will
the enjoyment that a prince might
envy. Later. perhaps, the indust
rious husband accumulates riches
and Schinken and Wurst and othel
delicotessen grace the family table
whereupon gout drags Hans up t.
the earth.
In Europe the lower classes arr

that he who would deprive the poo

SURFMEN'S ASSOCIATION
WILL REAOJUST RATES
Plans for Reorganization of Benefit
Association to Be Submitted
to Members.

Plans for the reorganization of the
Surfmens Mutual Benefit Association
and the readjustment Of insurance rates
in the organization have been completed
by an executive committee, composed of
the officers elected at the session held
here last week. and shortly will be sub
mitted to the membership.
The reimbursement plans contemplate the
substitution of an assessment rate OF
81 so per month on all old members, and
rate of 81 month on all new MEM
bers, as well as on members who have
not attained the age Of forty years. The
age limit has not been definitely decided
upon. this point being left to referen-
dunn Of the members.
The old plan. which was an assessment
of 81 on each member, on the death of
member of the association, and semi
annual assessments Of 81 per member is
to be abandoned. The association has a
fund of more than $13 0JO in it's treas
ury, and the semi-annual assessments
it was decided, are not necessary. The
organization. according to reports made
at last weeks meeting, has about 1,3N
members.
The newly elected officers, who COM
pose the committee arranging the read
justment and reorganization, are: P. H.
Morgan superintendent of the seventh
district president; w. Bowley, sixth dis
trict, first vice president n. n. Holmes.

REPAIRS TO BE PAID FOR.
Portraits of Medical Men Are to Be
Kept Up as Specimens.

Portraits of medical men. hanging on
the walls of the Army Medical Museum,
may not be specimens-the museum au-
thorities hold that they are, and the
auditor for the War Department takes
issue with them-but repairs to those por-
traits can be paid out of the appropria-
alton for the purchase and upkeep of
specimens in the museum. The controller
Of the Treasury. George DoWney. so finds.
reversing the auditor for the War De-
partment.
The portraits, which have hung in the
library of the museum for many years,
received much needed fixing up, al cost
of 1924 The auditor for the War De-
partment declined to authorize payment.
In the appeal of the authorities of the
museum they made the contention that
the portraits are numbered and carded
specimens and that they are mpor-
tant examples in the department of his
tory of medicine.
Controller Downey cited an old decision
which found that prior appropriation
similarly vOrded. was available for the
purchase of portraits. AS the later ap-
preparation act was even more literally
worded, he found no reason to doubt that
it was even more available for the ex-
penses Of repair work. whether the por-
traits were or were not to be regarded
as specimens.

resentatives Of the leading brotherhoods
Of railroad employees today urged amend
ment and broadening Of the Erdman 'arbi-

Unless this revised law Is enacted in
the near future. said Mr.. Low. this
country in all probability is facing the
its history"
under which Judge knapp and DIR.
Charles P. .Neill, former commissioner Of
labor, have acted as mediators in many
railroad labor disputes. 1t would allow
the government to attempt mediation
among the employees of different roads
who might be acting Jointly; would create
a federal commissioner Of concilia ton
and mediation and a federal board OF
the same character.
Justice Knapp's Views.
Justice Knapp said two things had led
him to urge the early adoption Of amend
ments to the law. One of these was the
unanimous agreement upon and earnest
support of the changes by all directly in
terested.
II regard it as very significant and en-
cOuraging that representatives Of 1--WE of
the great railway labor organizations and
the great railway systems Of the United
States have come to an agreement as to
the amendments that shall be passed for
the purpose of preventing strikes. and in
cases of necessity OF bringing all con-
troversies that may arise to a peaceful
settlement" said Judge Knapp.
The second reason was that the amend
ments were composite Judgment Of those
who had studied the subject.
