Carl f. Gore, little son of Mr.. and
Mrs. c. +. Gore, who reside at $50
Ohio street, was taken on another
trip to the State University hospital
at Iowa City yesterday to undergo an
examination of his lame leg, for
which he has been taking treatment
for year. Carl was attacked by
that terrible disease, infantile paral-
ysis, three years ago. For some time
after the attack the lad was COM
PEELED to crawl. After while he
became stronger, however, and par
TALLY regained the use of the af-
fected limb. A year ago his parents
heard of the work being done at Iowa
City and decided to send their son
there with the hope of his being
cured, or at least benefited. He has
gone to the hospital at intervals
during the year, and this time hopes
to come back cured. He walks with
out his crutches now, although the
brace is on his foot. DR.. Arthur
Steindler, one of the surgeons at the
Methodist hospital in Des Moines, is
the leading surgeon at the univer-
sity hospital and spends portion of

LABOR SHORTAGE IS
SH|PYARD PROBLEM
Federal Building Program Feels the
Shortage Of Workmen.

Washington, D. c., July TO-
Wooden and steel builders of the At
lantic and gulf coasts conferred to-
day with Major General Goethals,
manager general of the emergency
fleet, on labor conditions in the ship
building industry. Other districts
will be represented at later meet
ings.
1t was brought out at the confer
ences that there is general labor
shortage in ship yards throughout
the country. Measures probably will
be taken, it was said. to prevent
ship yards from enticing workmen
from other yards by paying higher
wages. A committee named to study
the question may draw up universal
wage scale for use in all yards.
Efforts will be made to obtain la
Dor from the interior for ship yards.
Skilled workers in other lines prob
ably will be brought to the coasts
and trained in the ship building in
dustry.

IOWA NOT BORROWING
FROM GOVERNMENT

Davenport, July 1O.-The federal
loan board down in Washington is
very much excited. When it was de-
cided by our national congress to lend
national money to the poor. strug-
Cling farmers of the United States,
of course Iowa was expected to bor-
row her full share.
But these gentlemen were des-
tined to be greatly surprised.
The first report of the federal
farm loan board UP to and including
July / shows that every state in the
Union has borrowed some money
from the federal loan board-that is,
every state except Iowa.
The farmers of Illinois have Dor
rowcd $205,53O within the past few
months, or since the federal farm
loan board has been in operation.
Indiana has borrowed practically a
half million dollars, and Wisconsin.
Michigan and all of the other agri-
cultural states have borrowed on up
to as much as $1.3O0,000, which was
loaned to the farmers of Texas. CAL
ifornia borrowed a million dollars
and Oklahoma $1,20O,OO0.
And Iowa borrowed nothing at ALL
When the federal farm loan board
held its first meeting in Iowa about
six months ago, its members were
entertained by the Greater Iowa as
sociation. During the course Of the
meeting Colonel French, president OF
the association, told the distinguish
ed visitors that while we would en-
tend every courtesy to them in Iowa.
at the same time he was quite sure
that if the national government had
sent a commission out here to Iowa
to borrow money from the Iowa farm
er for the national government they
would make much better progress
than III they came out here offering
to loan to the Iowa farmer money
from the federal treasury. This re-
mark was greeted quite generally by
a laugh from those present, but it
begins to appear that Colonel French

]. S. AIR FIGHTERS
MUST Be PERFECT

Washington, July 1O.-The reason
there are many vacancies in the avn
alton section is that only small
percentage of those who apply can
pass the physical test. Here's what
one must do after filling out series
of application forms:
''Have you ever been seasick?" is
the first question popped. Aviators
must be immune to NAL de mer.
Tests for near-sightedness and far
|sightedness, color perception graded
to finest tones and vision follow. vi
sion must be normal.
Heart, lungs and blood pressure
must be perfect.
Feet must be we'll shaped and the
nervous system normal. Chest ex-
pansion must be three or more inches
inflated.
Equilibry tests are next. The ap-
plicant must shut his eyes and bal
ance himself on his toes with heels
and toes together. 1t sounds simple
but try it. Then with eyes still
shut he balances on each foot, bring
ing the other up until the heel
touches the kneecap.
Eyes are then examined more mi
nutely by the use of belladonna and
the iris is ''X-rayed" to make doubly
sure there is no infection. Large
tonsils and adenoids must be re-
moved. Teeth must be good and
sound. Nasal passages must be clear.
Hearing must be perfect. The tick
of watch must be heard at five
feet. Across a 25-foot space the ap-
lplicant must differentiate between
"glass" and ''gas" and brass, y
spoken in a barely audible whisper.
Equilibrium, the seventh sense,
must be perfectly developed. The
other senses must be perfect, for one
impaired sense Injuries the balance
sense
The applicant is seated in a re-
volving chair, must the same as a
BARRIERS or dentists. He is whirled
ten times in each direction as fast
as the chair will revolve with eyes
shut. Suddenly stopped, he is to
look in the opposite direction from
which he has been whirled. The reg
ular jumping of the eyeball as the
brain seeks to regain it's equilibrium
shows how quickly the applicant is
| finding his balance. ;t5. 3!
