La Toilette Stands Judged by
The Record He Has Forced

N front-page, terma gant-type editorial
quite characteristic of the school of jour
nalism to which it belongs, the Washing
ton Herald rails at the principles of Wood
row Wilson, scolds at John w. Davis for
reaffirming them, and then splutters out,
MANY Democrats. under such conditions,
would consider La Toilette a better Jeffer-
sonian Democrat than is offered them by
their own party.
That the Washington Herald and it's like
are well fitted to interpret La Toilette is not
to BIZ gainsafd; he and they were of one
: chime in the years, and doubtless still
retain their mutual sympathies ifsnot their
mutual woes. But for the true Democrats
OF America, that organ has neither warrant
true Democrats is far removed from the
Shadows of La Toilette as is the constitution
OF the United States from the bubbles of
Bolshevst Russia; and the political con-
science of true Democrats would ,no" more
suffer them to follow La Toilette now than
when he strove to tie their Presidents hands
and to hobble their country's energies in the
thick of the Hohenzollern challenge to
American honor
Let one of La Follette's warm supporters
recall the record. The New Republic, with
gesture remarkably like that of drowning
man grasping at straw, has espoused his
candidacy, and now addresses to its readers
an appeal beginning in this wise: six short
years ago Senator Robert NJ. La Toilette was
the most unpopular and villified man in the
United States. AS the leader of a handful
of 'wilful mem who opposed the entry of the
United States into the World war, he was de-
nounced from thousand Platforms piIloried
by the press, and subjected to the most VIC
lent abuse that popular passion is capable OF.
committee of colleagues appointed to in
vestgate him nearly drove htA from the
Senate" Naturally a nation which had
looked upon the sinking of the Lusitania and
upon the repeated slaughter of its unoffend-
ing citizens by U-boats, and which had
weighed well the issue of Prussianism
against humanity, resented the La Toilette
attitude. Even the Legislature of his own
Wisconsin, with but three dissenting votes.
denounced his course, as betokenng that "he
was for Germany and against the United
States" and because of utterances tending
to excite sedition among the people Of the
country Six short years ago! But the
admiring New Republic goes on to avow:
To-day Senator La Toilette heads the most
formidable political revolt in half a century
i the only genuine movement expressing the
aspiration OF the masses He is the idol of
millions. Such is the amazing fortune Of
the who refused to bow to political en-
pediency."
BY political eNpediency." We take it, the
New Republic means that hsp tide of nat
ural patriotism in which men and women of
all parties turned SCIENTIFICALLY to the support
of their government in its defense of Amer
lean ideals Senator La Follettes conduct
was not expedient, nor was that of the
BerSdoll slackers eNpedient. The senator. by
his own opposition to measures without which

THE COSMETIC PERIL
By n. Addington Bruce

N. Cole at the recent annual meeting Of
the American Medical Association. Its SUBJ
ject was the perils run\ by women who make

- EmphatcalIy, and with abundance OF
illustrative from clinical experience,
DR.. Cole denounced this practice as po-
tential health menace Of real seriousness.
His Indictment Of cosmetics ranged from
face paints and creams to hair dyes.
WITHOUT going far as to declare that
every cosmetic is dangerous to health, he
called attention to the fact that many
tain poisonous ingredients. Lead mercury,
pismuth, arsenic, resorcinol, phenol bodies,
pyrogallic acid, nitric acid, and wood alcohol
were some of the poisons listed by him as
being found in preparations applied by
women to their face, their hands, their hair

len shut. On close questioning she admitted
that she had recently had her hair dyed in
a reputable beauty parlor Analysis of the
nostrum used showed that it contained %
per cent of lead acetate.
Lead is sometimes a constituent of face
enamels and creams, to give them a soften
ing feel. Lead also enters into the compo-
sition of certain face powders, a good ex-
ample being lead carbonate, often called
flake white This preparation had been
guilty of numerous cases of LEI poisoning.
Mercury in the form of calomeI also
enters into the manufacture of certain toilet
creams. We have recently seen patient
who consulted us for a peculiar blush dis
celebration of the skin of the face. We had
the patients toilet cream analysed, and it
was found to contain calomel constituent.
''Most of the so-called rice powders rec

specialists contain little or no rice La
Wall, in sixteen examinations of so-called
rice powders, found only two to be pure.
Six contained some rice, and the rest tale,
corn starch, zinc oxid, chalk and bismuth

"A short time ago we had a patient con-
fined to the hospital with generalzed

patient gave a straight history of the use

revealed that the preparation contained sal
icylic acid, menthol, and phenol bodies

Senators Who Stood True Are
BEING Renon1inated

Vt the whirlgig of time brings in its re-
| venges, it also bestows its rewards.
United States Senator Pat Harrison has
been renominated by the Democrats of Mis-
sissippi in acknowledgment Of his loyal sery-
ice and as tribute to his sterling worth.
The large majorities by which he carried
every county, even that of his opponent,
former Governor Earl Brewer, are crafty
ing far beyond the bounds of his own COM
monwealth; for they show that the people,
after all, do not forget. 1t Senator
Harrison who defeated Vardaman, one of
the wartime foes of President Wilson, in
the memorable year of 1918. Certain Demo-
Gratis Of the Senate, including few from the
South, chose tos stand with obstructive Re-
pubicans, headed by Henry Cabot Lodge,
rather than with the President and their
own party. With that little group Of
wilful men, Pat Harrison would have moth
ing to do. He supported the Wilson prin-
ciples consistently and heartily, and did his
faithful best to prevent betrayal of the ideals
for which America went to war. Moreover,
in the ensuing administration, when the
rights of agriculture became pressing issue,
he promptly aligned himself with the group
Of Southern and Western Senators who in
sisted that the farmer have fair deaW True
to Wilson, true to his party, true to the
people, Senator Harrison has well earned the
confidence which Mississippi so unreservedly
has voted him.
His case is the more notable because it is
l,
Democrats who stood by their great leader
in the time of storm and stress have been
rewarded, while those who deserted him
have been rebuked. In Tennessee, to cite
recent examples, Senator Mcclellan has been
renominated by a large majority, whereas
Senator, Shields, who was opposed to Wilson,
has been defeated by that distinguished
World war veteran, the Honorable Lawrence
D. Tyson. SO, too, Senator Swanson, of Vir2
ginia; Senator Trammell, of-Forida; Senator
Sheppard, of Texas, have won renewed ex-
pressions of the confidence of their constit-
uents in primary election contests; while
Senator Simmons, of North Carolina, ~and
Senator Hefflin, of Alabama, have been re
nominated without opposition. These, it
should be added, have freely co-operated
with Western Senators in behalf of agricul-
tural rights. In the West, as in the South,
Senators who have been thus watchful of
the farmers interests have received or are
considered certain to receive, primary in
dorsements. Among the Progressiyes so far
renominated are McNary, of Oregon; Brook
hart, of Iowa; Norris, of Nebraska and Cap
per- of Kansas
The South naturally honors a Senator who
adds to vigilance for agriculture's advance
ment and to all-round serviceableness, a
record of loyalty to that greatest Democrat
of his time, Woodrow Wilson. SO it was
that Pat Harrison was overwhelmingly re-
nominated in Mississippi, and that men of
this type have been chosen in Tennessee,
Virginia, Florida Texas, North Carolina, and
Alabama. To that same type belongs Sena-
tor Harris, of Georgia, who seeks renomina-
ton in the forthcoming State Democratic
primary.

BY the Associated Press
CHICAGO. December 31.-Prof. r. G.
Journey, member of the faculty of the
North Carolina State Agricultural Col
lege at Raleigh, appeared In court
yesterday to contest the divorce suit
filed by his wife. Mrs. Helen Journey,
and charged that student who
had boarded with them had been a
rival for Mrs. Journeys affections.
Mrs. Journey charged cruelty and
says her husband forced her to leave
him in 1929.
She charged he cloaked his cruelty
in the presence of others, by pinching
her under the pretense of lavishing
endearments upon her. Prof. Jour
ney, who asks a divorce on grounds of
desertion, testified that Oscar Har-
mon, student at the University of
Missouri when Journey was profess
sor there, had been too friendly with
Mrs. Journey.
Late in the day, Harmon, at present
a law student here, took the stand
and said Prof. Journey had asked him

cause he said he wanted woman who
did not think she was her husbands
equal and wanted to get something
on her" He will be on the witness
