 In the camp and the hospital they call him the "hypnotist." Pcrhaps he is.

He laughs when you try to get him to explain them. "Oh, don't know" he will say. But he grows serious over his shell-shock cases.
 'It isn't that l hypnotic them, at lll," he will tell you. "l just tell them that they are bigger than their nerves, and that they can control them if they really want to. And l show them how. They believe it because I tell them it is so, and then, you see they are well"
 But the doctors continue to won der and to s2y that Van has dis covered the first really successful treatment for shell-shock.

 "I do like ordered the captain.
 So Van showed him. Though the doctor couldn't quite make it out, at that just what Van did. He stroked their heads little, and massaped their threats a bit, and all the time he talked" to them in the quietest, most harmless sounding voice in the world. But ten minutes after he began the boys were asleep, naturally, without 2 tremor in the bodies that had been nerve wrecked for weeks. The doc tor looked at Sergeant Van help lessly and left shaking his head.
 Two weeks later Sergeant Van held a clinic before a Major Gen eral of the Medical Corps and sev- eral ma jors and still more captains and 'lieutenants-all men of repu- tation in America as doctors. Two of his subjects were the two men over whom he worked that frst morning. They came into the clin- ic, clear-eyed and straight and rud- dy as athletes from the field. They passed tests that the doctors could not pass, themselves One of them. supporting himself by his should CTS and his ankles between two ta- bles, held the weight of four of the huskiest of the doctors, standing upon him at the same time. An other subject was huge negro who sad been brought to the hos pital the day before and whom Ser geant Van had never seen. Four hypodermics had not been able to quiet him, and they brought him in in straight-ja jacket. It took Van just seven minutes to have him asleep.

PROTEST IS FILED
 BY RADIO COMPANY

NEW YORK, Jan. 8.-The Tropi- cal Telegraph Co. owned by hte United Fruit and formed by latter to maintain communication with Central and South American inter- ests and ships at sea has protested against the bill giving the Navy Department control over all Ameri- can. shore radio stations. The com pany has numerous stations in Cen tral America and a high powered plant at New Orleans. George &. Davis, general manager who has left for Washington says: Next to the Marconi Co. United Fruit is more heavily interested financially in radio than any other American corporation. If we lose control of our American terminal it might re- tire system which was built after suit in the destruction of the en- years of effort and the expenditure of great sums in the furtherance of American commerce."

SAVE AND PRODUCE.

- ESPITE warnings of a Sc
rious sugar shortage,
consumption of sugar has
recently increased. The ma
ton has been told of shortage
of labor in all kinds of facto-
ries, yet purchases of all save
ordinary necessities are the
greatest in history. Wages are
high, prices high and demand
for goods far beyond normal.
and meanwhile production is
dwindling, with unrest, strike
after strike. impaired efficien-
cy and shorter hours.
Corrective measures to off
set the present condition in
clude production and thrift.
Supply and demand are like
the pans of a balance. When
one goes up, the other must di-
minish and, because of our eco
nonlic system, price is in the
same pan as demand. High de-
mand. high price, is the rule.
50 long as we must buy expen-
sive automobiles, furnish homes
lavishly, wear silk when less
expensive materials would suf-
flee, demand new cuts of meat
when hash and stews once suit
ed very well. prices will remain
high.
The lesson of thrift was
quickly learned and quickly
forgotten by the American peo-
pie. The end of the war saw
them demand goods far more
than they could be
produced. Demand has kept in
the lead ever since. If prices
are to go down to the point
where supply and demand bal
ance, we must half-sole our
shoes, darn our stockings, eat
warmed-over food once in a
while, keep this years auto an
other year and produce some
thing ourselves.

GERMANY''S BUSINESS.

- HEN the treaty is signed
III: and peaceful relations
~ with Germany are re-
sum ID, who will benefit more,
the United States or Germany?
Opponents of the treaty have
advocated the argument that
this country's foreign trade
with Germany was already as
suming normal proportions,
and have also stated that Ger
many would flood this country
with surplus goods. English
reports indicate that Ameri-
cans need be in no fear of keen
German competition.
The president of the Board
of Trade of England, says,
Beyond a comparatively small
quantity there does not seem
to be any accumulation of
goods in Germany ready for
export. Their costs are enor-
nous. In addition there is a |
great fall in productivity. There
is no great manufacturing ac-
tivity in Germany. Industry is
not moving but is very stag
nant. They are short of raw
material. and their state is pitt
full with regard to coal. Great /
as our difficulties are here,
theirs are infinitely greater"
