that 1t will be necessary to take
some action that will clarity the
radio situation.
The super-power problem which
created something of storm IN the
1924 conference, Is expected to be
considered again this year, although
II was understood that most Of the
opposition has faded out.
Official reports of the broadrast
on $4,000 watts through station
WGY of Schenectady, will be sub
n1itted to the conference. Although
the studies are not complete 1t
was learned that the expectations
were not realized.
Fading Eliminated
The high power broadcast did not
entirely eliminate fading. Excel
lent distance was obtained. but ex-
perts said that high kilocycle fire.
quency, or low wave length would
be more effective in eliminating
fading and getting distance than
high power.
It was pointed out that the Nc.
MILAN expedition radio station has
been heard more than 10000 miles
and low wave length and low power
were employed.
A statement by Secretary Hoov-
err gives in a nutshell the aims Of
the next conferences:
There can be but one point OF
view in the consideration of radio
regulation and development; that
is, to assure increasing service to
the listener. The radio is enriching
our homes. The road to progress
is to stimulate the development Of
the art: to prevent interference
with and between broadcasting sta.
tions through maintained competi-
ton; to secure greater perfection
of reception and to increase the
number of alternative and better
programs"

Figures Of Speech
"The Dunmow Fitch"

They'll never win the Dunmow
fitch Of bacon" says a writer OF
a short magazine story; from the
first day of their married life until
they agreed to disagree their cx-
istence was one continual quarrel
"By Dunmow fitch Of bacon
the writer meant the famous side
Of bacon that was awarded, CEN
turtles ago, in the village of Dun
NOV, England, as a prize TO any
married couple who will go TO
the priory and, kneeling on two
sharp-pointed stones, will swear
that they have not quarreled nor
repented Of their marriage within
a year and a day after its celebra-
ton" Although the prize or award
was instituted in the year 1914 by
Robert de FitzwalteT, it was not
until two centuries later, in 1445,
that it was claimed for the first
time. II is recorded that up to the
year 1872 eight claimants appeared
for the "Dunmow flitch.7 but in
later years the attempt TO revive
the custom was said 10 be a mere

income tax without profit to their state of mind.
Returning to France they could make good propa-
ganda amongst those whom they will have to ask to
support the bargain they make in Washington France
should realize not only that America is rich country,
but that its rich men PAY an income tax.
1t is quite true that rich men in France pay taxes.
But they are indirect taxes Indirect taxes, however
heavy are but trifle to the rich 1t is burden for
poor man to pay extra cent for box of matches or
pound of salt In the bulk such taxes bring much money
to the French government But rich man can't use
any more matches or salt alcohol as rule than
poor man. France might well learn great lesson IN
democracy form our income tax returns and then pay
her just debts to America.
Our rich men, France may be sure use all of their
vast advantages in legal financial and accounting skill
to pay no income tax than they must But all the
way from John D. Rockefeller, Jr, to Charlie Chaplin
they pay more than the tax on few boxes of matches
or few bottles of wine.

as has many another.
He was twenty-seven years old
when he was admitted to the bar

Gradually, through connections he
made in the practice Of his profess

found time to serve for two terms
in the New York State Senate.
Today he is the treasurer of the

As the earth spins on its way

diurnal rotation, turning the winds
blowing over its surface into cyclon'

with the stupendous velocity OF
more than G6,OO0 miles an hour, and
swaying under the contending and
varying attractions Of the sun and
the moon, whose forces are, on the
average, respectively equal to 1850
quadrillion and 10000 trillion tons

prised to find it trembling with
leaping energies like a fast.driyen
ocean liner bucking a gale.
But, in fact, it swings smoothly
on, enveloped in the quiet blue of

Work of Old Masters

VYTHY is the violin bought by Mscha Elman in
wv Paris worth $4,000 to anyone? Dealers III
musical instruments emphasize that it was the
handiwork of Stradvarius which gives it historic and
artistic value in addition to its intrinsic worth Musicians
assert that the old instruments Of the great craftsmen
contain tonal qualities superior to any modern product
Manufacturers of violins admit themselves baffIed
by the perfection Of the old masters works Even when
the design is copied with microscopic exactness the
wood selected and seasoned by the most skful artisan
and the whole put together by artist the result falls
far short of the old violin in performance.
A violin is instrument uncanny in its power
From other instrument be drawn strains so close

rebels at the touch of other than masters bow No
other instrument deeply stir the hearts of humans
SO il may be that Stradivarius and other masters

HOW TO FIGHT BRONCHITIS
By ROYAL s. COPELAND, M D.
United States Senator From New York.
Former Commissioner OF Health, New York City.

Each age group has its peculiar
susceptibilities. Babies are most
seriously affected by colds and their
results. In middle life, pneumonia
is a terrible harvester of deaths.
In advanced life, bronchitis is a
common affliction and very difficult
to control. In babies, too, bronchi-
It's is a serious ailment.
The windpipe divides into two
tubes when it reaches the lungs.
These divisions are called the bron-
chi. Each bronchus divides and
redivides, branching out like the
limbs and twigs of a tree. The
smallest of the bronchi are very
small indeed, almost like the tiny
blood vessels, the capillaries.
inflammation Of the lining me-
brane of the bronchi is called
bronchitis" When it reaches
down into the tiny branches, it is
called capillary bronchitis" This
latter trouble is really "a form of
pneumonia, called by the doctors
"broncho-pneumonia."
Some persons are peculiarly
liable to attacks Of bronchitis. This
is true Of indoor workers. Indeed
it is rare to find attacks Of bronchi-
tbs in persons who love and live in
the out-of-doOrs.
1t is rare for the first symptoms
to appear in the throat or chest.
San Antonio light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1911-1993, 1925-09-08

Nervousness is a blanket term
loosely used-that covers a variety
Of conditions. People employ it to
designate any disorder referable to
nerves. A much better term--just
because nervousness" is so all en-
bracing-is the one that medical
men and psychologists use. 1t is
called a neurosis.
A neurosis is very definite
thing-it is a functional nerve con-
ditiOn that has no organic basis.
In a neurosis the nerve cells and fl
bres are all intact and able to per-
form the work intended for them to
do. The reason they do not sue
coed is because usually they are de-
plctcd. They no longer are able to
manufacture a sufficient amount Of
nerve energy. Nerve energy is also
wasted. 1t is distributed to wrong
places. The sum total result is
malfunctioning Of one kind or an.
other,
Now this malfunctioning Of nerves
is perceived by the sufferer as symp-
toms. One person is keyed up, ex-
citable, and everything gets "on
his nerves. Another complains Of
excessive fatigue. Anxiety, fears,
Obsessions, doubts, suspiciousness,
a feeling Of impending danger, rest.
lessness, sclf-depreciation, loss of in
terest, chronic worry-all these and
many more besides are also symp-
toms.
II a person only occasionally
shows a malfunctioning of nerves we
do not say he has n ncurosis. We
say simply that he is neurotic-that
is, he has n tendency TO deyclop a
neurosis. II the term nervousness
is TO be used at all it should be
confined 10 those mildcr manifcs-
tations-these neurotic symptoms.
This distinction marks a real differ.

lively ascribe life TO it. l felt a
slight earthquake once, and the abb
surd, yet startlingly realistic, i'm
preston flashed through me that The
globe was twitching its cuticle like
q horse shaking off flies. Undoubt-
cdly it was from such passing fan
tastes that all the old legends Of
pantheistic mythology arose.
But science shows the earth to be
truly almost as restless as a fly
prosecuted horse. The real myth is
that Of the stability of its rock
ribbed frame. To say nothing Of the
enormous movements recorded IN
geological history, involving the al
tcrnate uplifting and sinking Of
whole continents, parts Of the
earth's crust are quiyering one may
say continually. But as the mill
utcst forms Of life can only be seen
with the microscope, 70 thousands
Of small earthquakes 90 undetected
except by the sensitive scismOmeter.
One Of the causes OF earthquakes
seldom mentioned is the wearing
down Of hills and mountains by the
rains. and the transportation Of roll,
sand, pebbles, and even rocks, by
innumerablc streams and rivers, to
the plains and the seas. The wear
ing action is called erosion and
the piling up at the final places Of
deposit 'scdimcntation."
The immensely Of the work
steadily accomplished by these oper-
atoms. which gradually plane down
the irregular surfaces Of the con
tinents and transfer the material
10 the oceanic dcpressiOns, has long
been recognized by biologists and
geoprsphcrs, but the resulting cf-
feet upon the stcadincss Of the
earth's crust has escaped general
attention.
Recently. however, william
Bowie. Of the United States Coast
and Gcodctic Survey, has been
quoted as affirming that erosion
and sedimeaMion are the real
