QUAINT Econony"

" HE New York Tribune offered what ap-
pears, perhaps, to be the most desperate
of all arguments for the ship subsidy
BILL by declaring that it is an economic
measure.
The present Government ownership opera
ton, says the Tribune, in effect, means a
deficit of $5O,000,O00 yearly and "the cost
of the shipping bill subventions to private
owners would be between $15,OOO,OOO and
$SO,O0O,OOO year"
Luckily. it is pointed out that there are two
rather glazing defects in this statement.
The first defect is that the implication that
we are compelled to incur deficit of $50,
100000 year on Government ownership and
operation. There is. of course. no such ne
cessity. We can sell such ships as we can
market and tie UP the rest as England-wfth
better ght-did long ago, and wipe
out the deficit.
The world is overstocked with vessels and
rates are ruinously low. And there is no rea-
son why we should maintain a merchant ma
rine. operated by the Government. except as
a luxury.
II we were confronted with the alternatives
of Government ownership and operation at a
loss and subsidies, obviously there would be
no argument against subsidies. But we are
not so confronted.
The second defect and the New York Eve
ming Post finds, is in the second statement
of the Tribune.
Nobody can say what the cost of subsidies
will be. Even the Tribune presents two sums,
one of which is double the other The only
thing that can be definitely said from expert
ence is that subsidies are never held as low as
their advocates hope, and subsidies have a
seemingly irresistible tendency to increase. If
some one could give bond against this latter
contingency subsidies would not took so for
bidding, but to give bond against an in
crease in any kind of subsidies would be to
display a peculiarly virulent form of madness.

THOSE NERVOUS ILLS
BY H. Addingtoni Bruce

TT is sound principle which that emil
nent English neurologist, DR.. e. F.
Buzzard, lays down when he declares,
as he did in an address to a body of ply
sicians:
Among the weeds that have choked the
plant of mental hygiene, the strongest and
most obnoxious is one that was sown in
ignorance and that has been nourished on
fear.
Il refer to the fallacious belief, deeply
implanted in the public mind, that so-called
functional nervous disorders, or nerves.
are not mental disorders. Surely the time
has come to discard verbal bubble that
is unworthy of a scientific profession
Of course, the reason this verbal quib-
ble' has not been discarded long since is
popular Naturalization of mental disor-
ders in general with insanity in particular.
Doctors have hesitated to tell psychoneu-
rotic patients that their aches and palms,
their insomnias and dyspepsias are at bot
tom symptoms of mental trouble, because
they are we'll aware that the patient might
jump to the conclusion that the doctors
thought them insane or on the highway
to insanity. This would only make a bad
matter worse-would, in fact, make the pa
tients more psyehoneurotic than ever,
Yet it might readily be made clear to
them that by mental trouble" was meant
in their case merely faulty mental habit
the correction of which was within their
own power and was prerequisite to OBJ
tanning relief from the symptoms of which
they complained. Once they were satisfied
that their sanity was not in question, the
way would be open for the corrective
mental treatment they most of all need.
Take, for example, the case of person
afflicted with a psychoneurotic inability to
sleep.
Here the underlying cause usually is a
conscious or subconscious fixed idea that
sleep is impossible. So long as this fixed
idea persists treatment of the insomnia by
any means is pretty sure to be unsatisfac-
tory.
Certainly it will not do simply to tell
the patient that he is nervous" and to
prescribe sedatives for him. There is need
ed a. frank. if tactful explanation of the
mental factor involved-an explanation
the chronic seeplesness.
So with other mentally caused conditions
which may of itself suffice to overcome
enormously labelled nervous disorders"
Once patients and the public generally are
educated to recognize their real origin, and
to recognize it without falling into need
less panic, not only will treatment be more
successful, but there will be less and less
necessity for treatment.
Physicians are of all people in the best
position to undertake such education. In
the interest both of curative and Of pre-
yentive medicine they should undertake it.
