HOOVER UPON NATIONAL PROBLEMS

In the last issue of the Saturday Evening Post, Herbert Hoover
discusses national problems, their cause and their cure, in a
comprehensive manner. Scientifically stating his premises, he
suggests solutions as an engineer rather than a politician, show
ing that he has a comprehensive knowledge of the vital problems
of reconstruction enjoyed by few candidates.
Mr.. Hoover makes clear that America must so order its life
and industries that agricultural and industrial growth and de-
velopment go forward together in order to create stable pros
perty. The high cost of living, he declares, is "a temporary
economic problem surrounded by high emotions while the agri
cultural industry is "a permanent economic problem surrounded
by many dangers and he adds that I'VE are now entering our
regular four year period of large promises to sufferers of all
kinds"
Mn. Hoover declares that the high cost of living is due largely
to initiation and shortage in the world supply, with speculation
as an incident but not the cause.
Concerning agriculture Hoover declares that the farmers
prices are fixed by worlds wholesale prices which have small
to his cost of production and rises or falls with the de-
crease or increase of the cost of marketing; that the two margins
between the farmer and the wholesaler on the one hand and the
wholesaler and consumer on the other, are far greater in America
in any country of the world, and have grown abnormany
during and since the wal, except during the period of food con-
that the decreases in price between the farmer and whole
saler, Immediately affect the farmer, while increases are absorb
ed by the trader between, and the farmer gets but a tagging in
terest-and that an analysis of the margins show they can be
constructiyely diminished, but the prosecution of profiteers will
not accomplish it; that the problem must be solved if agriculture is
to be maintained, and the balance between agriculture and general
industry preserved to prevent dependence upon imported food.
THE development of our national life" states Hoover, rests
IN the spirit OF our farms and surrounds our villages. Industries
real market is with the farmer by the constant increase of his
standard of living"

AN ORGY OF

Extravaganza and wastefulness in the United States are ap-
pafently not curbed in the least by the high cost of living, for
imports and luxuries are breaking all records, while the home
made non-essentas are enjoying the best possible market.
During the month of February, diamond importations at
rev York alone, totalled $9,044,350 fur imports totalled $751;
996. Laces, feathers, yelvets, pushes and other rich fabrics
mounted into the millions, while over $30,000,0 900 worth of silk
ana SILK garments were received. Art works passed the $4,000
0oo mark, while manufactured jewery and ornaments reached
fabulous amounts.
Every quarter of the globe contributed its quota to crafty
the vanlties and folies of the newly rich in America. and the flo
ures show an orgy of spending without parallel since the de-
cadent days of the dying Roman Empire. To this unlimited
marker, the ruined palaces of European nobility, as well as the
straw huts of the Congo savages are contributing their quota. in
the futile effort to satisfy the profteer's appetite for luxuries.
IL seldom tails to the lot of a young man to be the unanimous
choice OF the people of his district for public office, but such seems
to be the fortunate fate of John H. Carson, who will probably he
me next astflct attorney OF Marion county, as he is without op-
position either at the primaries or the election. Mr.. Carson one
the brightest and ablest of Saems attorneys has the endorse
ment OF ms brother lawyers, the loyal support of the ex-seryice
men and the confidence Of the general public, and will make a can
able prosecutor.

Pneumonia attacks the air cells
of the lungs. An Inflammation
IS set up and matter is thrown
off which causes the air cells to
solidify, thus preventing the
natural flow of blood thru the
lungs. This backing up of
the blood causes the heart to
pump harder, just as stepping on
a hose increases the water pres
sure, which is the reason why,
during this disease, the physician
watches the overburdened heart
so carefully.
After recovery the lungs are
filled with a mass of wreckage-
the debris of the b~attle-which
must be gotten rid of by a process
known as resolution. frequently,
infamed spots remain, congestion
persists, cough hangs on, and the
least exposure brings on a cold
that is hard to get rid of. If
neglected, such damaged air pas
sages may easily develop serious
disease of the lungs.
Such cases should always con-
tinue under a physicians care
and frequent examinations should
be made to see that nature is

Major Monkey asked him what he
meant. And it surprised him to learn
that all winter long deep snow lay
upon the ground. and cold winds
blew, and fierce storms often ragged.
Though it was a hot summers day,
Major Monkey shivered at the mere
mention of such things. And he
pulled his red cap further down upon
his head.

Now, Major Monkey looked wor-
ried when he heard about the bitter
winters in Pleasant Valley. His queer
face had screwed itself into even more
wrinkles than it usually wore. But
as soon as jolly Robin spoke of GO
ing to a warmer place, the Major
frightened at once.
I'm going South tool" he cried.
And if you've no objection wen

jolly Robin said that nothing would
please him more.
Il shall be glad to go with you-if
my wife doesn't object" he assured
the Major.
oh! She won't mind" said Major
Monkey. 'She can go with us. Wen
make up "a party. She'll be
lucky TO go anywhere with such a
famous traveller as l am"
Jolly Robin said somewhat Doubt
fully that he hoped Mrs. Robin would
accept their plan. And then he
dashed Major Monkeys high homes
by %remarking, "of course, we always
fly when we go South"
The Majors face fell. He looked
careworn and unhappy again.
