two weeks and caused a search to be
instituted throughout both the Caro-

Raleigh for Charleston, where he was
to begin a tour of duty with troops
at Fort Moultrie, travelling by auto
mobile. He had wired to have sum

lumbia- and the first alarm as to his
whereabouts was felt when he failed
to claim the money.
King was arrested July 16, at his
home near Canton, n. c., and upon the
finding of shirt in his possession
that was identified as one of the miss
ing officers. he confessed and impli-
Gated Harrell. The latter was arrest

says:
he province of the doctors profession has been greatly
widened during the last decade Many mental and nervous
troubles have been acknowledged to have physical root
this leads to the barring of mental and spiritual anguish to
the physician in hope of relief"
The real situation, bit deeper than that, is that people

made malades the most and alarming of all
human malades.
Doctors offices crowded with patients who though
are, nevertheless, sick people,
Inconsistencies and neurotics-a mighty crop of them
have been created by the worry of days.
Some doctors attempt to find the roots of these maade
in improper functionng of the thyroid adenas and other
endocrine glands Others trace the maades to and lose
them in the ntricaces Of psychoanayss and psychatr
The majority of these troubles spiritual And the
only cure for them is STANDARDIZATION.

ITALY's BETTER ESTATE
Minneapolis JournaD

Italy is said to be more prosper
Gus today than ever before in mod
ern history. Back four or five CEN
turtles. Italy was very prosperous in
communities and for periods. and
that in time when the rest of
Europe was enjoying that "civiliza-
ton on dung HILL" as one his
torian characterizes the middle ages.
But Italian prosperity today ex
ceeds any prosperity enjoyed be-
tween the "Risorgimento" and that
day in 1915 upon which Italy entered
the World War.
Italy has herself to thank for the
present state of things. And she
has attained it despite a national
debt so great that it looks impossi-
bic even to liquidate. and after an
industrial and social disorganization
that did seem fatal.
She owes her comparatively happy
estate to herself, we say. She owes
it to leadership, yes; but she chose
the leadership and she sticks to her
loyalty. True, not every nation gets
a proper leader when it needs him.
But true also, not every people pre-
fer the right leader. AS Greece did
not Venizelos.
Mussolini inspired, directed and
rode the Fascist revolution. That
performance was feat helped, no
doubt, by good luck. But since he
assumed power, he has evinced mar
velously correct administration, both
positively and negatively. But the
Italians respond to his direction.
They have gone to. work, industri-
ously, faithfully, intelligently. Mus
solini may be the lever, but the Ital-
ian people supply the fulcrum.
Mussolini in Italy does what he
does by dictatorship consented to
by the people. That recourse ar
CUES real political Incompetence in
the people. Such incompetence the
American people have not exhibited,
or anyhow do not acknowledge inI
themselves.
We as a people cannot avoid the
test of our political competence,
however. = Lax administration grows
less and less tolerable. And we
shall require our Mussolini, unless
we can evince renewed power to
rule ourselves.
Good dictatorship supplies admir-
| able government, as long as it stays
good. The fatality inherent in die
tatorship is it's refusal to stay good.
How long will Mussolini last as the
good dictator, the admirable admin
istrator, who works disinterestedly
16 hours day?
A leaf out of Napoleon's life sup
plies the answer. The Bonaparte
who was First Consul, the Napoleon
who was first emperor, was one of
the ablest administrators in all his
tory. The government he gave
France was the best in every sense
of efficiency. But as he grew old
err, he grew more self-indulgent, he
began leaving decisions to his secre-
taries. And his administration de-
Perforated. As will Mussolin's if he
continues dictator for long.
1t is to be said for him that ap-
parently he recognizes as much. He
will strive to restore Italy to self
government gradually. For there is
no real substitute for self-govern-
ment. If people fail in it. they
are ultimately doomed to bad gov
eminent, to oppression.
