The Philippine Report
New York Times

The recommendations in the clear and compact re-
port of Colonel Carmi A. Thompson as to the
future of the Philippines are, in the main, sound.
He points out that immediate independence is not
only out of the question, but is not desired even by
those Filipino politicians who have been loudest
in advocating it. Although he somewhat exag-
gerates the present deadlock between the Philippine
Executive and the Legislature, and has apparently
failed to realize that this has been caused by the
deliberate scheming Of shrewd Filipino demagogues.
ne recommends various changes in our relations with
the islands which should make it difficult for these
politicians to continue their policy of obstruction
He suggests, for example, that the control of the
islands be taken out of the hands Of the War De-
partment. He advocates assigning to duty with the
Governor General civilian aides and advisers in
place OF those military officers on whom by force

You'll ful Crime Wanes

recent report on juvenile delinquency, issued by
the department Of labor, furnishes evidence thai
wild youth is not so wild after all.
careful survey, covering Ia cities, reveals a
decrease in delinquency in nine of the cities and an
increase in but four. The number of actual com.
mtmcnts is smaller than that reached in former
surveys.
The fact that people read almost daily stories Of
crime by youths, gives the readers an impression
that youth is somewhat rampant.
The truth is, of course, that these crime stories
deal with exceptions rather than rules. Otherwise
they would not he news.

A Woman Ambassador

Madame Alexandra Kollantay, minister plenipO-
tertiary and envoy extraordinary of the soviet union
to Russia, the first diplomat in history, says
that the job of international diplomacy essentially
is a woman's
This diplomacy business is reduced to very simple
needs, according to this first woman in the field.

Editorial Comment
Ships to Our Door
(St. Paul Daily News)


Advocates of the great lakes to the Atlantic wa
terway are greatly encouraged by the report of Sec
rotary Hoover, chairman of the United Statcs-St.
Lawrence commission.
1.-THE ST. Lawrence waterway is literally a reality
now" says Charles P. Craig, executive director of
the st. Lawrence Tidewater association. "An Of
the economic and engineering facilities have been
approved
Before actual construction starts, however, it will
be necessary for the joint beard of American and
Canadian engineers to prepare supplemental re-.
port recommending division of the costs and wa
terpcwer rights. This done, treaty will be nego-
tiated between the United States and Canada and
congressional appropriations authorized. The COM
mission estimated these details will take two years.
Eight years is fixed for actual construction.
The commissions conclusions as reported to Pres
ident Coolidge follow:
First, the construction of the shipway from the
great lakes to the sea is imperative both for the
relief and for the future DEVELOPMENT of vast
interior
Second, the shipway should be constructed on the
st. Lawrence route, provided suitable agreement
can be made with the Dominion Of Canada.
Third the development of the power resources Of
the St. Lawrence should be undertaken by appro-
pirate agencies.
Fourth, negotiations with Canada should arrive
at agreement upon all these subjects. In such me-
gotiations the United States should recognize the
proper relations of New York to power develop
ment in the international section.
The commissions report deprecates the so-called
military necessity for the a-American canal across
New York state. 1t points out that the canal will
not njure terminal business of lake and seaboard
cities. but that it will divert traffic from over
crowded railroads and provide additional shipping
facilities for middle western states
"ln the wider view the increased prosperity of the
mdcontnent, the relief of many of their present
economic difficulties and development of huge wa
terpower for stimulation of industry and commerce
in New York and New England shall add to the pros
perty of the country whole and thereby benefit
every citizen and every city," President Coolidge
was told.
Cost of the waterway is fixed between 1923 ,OOO,-

The Daily News hopes that Mr.. Craig is right in
calling the project reality. But it advises that
there be no let-down in efforts to get the work
started.

by tossing them in the air and catching them and by letting them sleep in posi- tions which easily twist tender, plastic bones out of adjustment.
 The common practice of pulling chil- dren along by one hand and yanking them up steps and into street cars is also the cause of a great many twisted bodies that often can never be put straight again.
 If you let very young child take the position that is natural and instinctive for him, he will invariably get over on his "tummy" This position, the doc tors tell parents, is both right and con- ducive to healthy growth and the child should be kept in this position rather than flat on his back.
 Numerous cases of spinal curvature could be prevented at the beginning if mothers and nursemaids would let youngsters teach them the proper way to lay them in cribs, carriages or on blankets on the floor.
 Dr. Sauchelli condemns high -heeled shoes as one of the most common causes of body twisting that may, and often does, make one something of cripple
 "Nhen you put on shoe that props the heel two or three inches of the floor says the doctor, you are playing the very deuce with your back bone, be- cause if the body were held in line the head would be thrown six inches for ward of it's normal position
 But the body must find it's own cen ter of gravity to stand by itself, and the spine is unduly curved in four places to offset the raising of the heel There is no particular discomfort in adjusting yourself to fashionable shoes. but after a time the muscles about the unnatural curves in the spine become set and curvature is well on its way"
 It has been his experience that oc- cupation has a great deal to do with this matter of self-madc cripples He has found, as an example, that most

couraged or forced to sit in harmful positions
 Perhaps the best thing We could do," he suggests, "woud be to have adjust able chairs that can be fitted to the individual, for there is great difference in the proportions of people. But if this IS too much to hope for, at least seats in our homes, ln theaters, trains and auto mobiles, can be built with the bottoms sloping slightly toward the back and the backs set at an angle that will not make 1t necessary for us to sit unnaturally bent forward, thus pressing our ribs and our hips into the delicate organs in our abdomens and chests"
 Recent investigations show that 70 per cent of the children in the United States and Canada have spinal defects of one kind or another, and that there are at least five million cases of spinal curv- ature among school children and college students in the two countries
 Most of these cases, the investigators say, are the result of bad habits of sit ting and standing, that can make crip- pies as surely as disease that leaves the victim deformed, or accidents that vio- lently knock one out of shape.
 Some of the trouble is laid to school room seats and desks which are not properly adjusted to the children who use them. Injury suffered in play or in athletic games is, in part, responsible for the alarming number of abnormal spines in North Americas younger gen. eration. The common custom of carry ing books on ore hip has brought on and aggravated thousands of cases of spinal curvature.
 The medical men and physical culture experts have gone very thoroughly into the matter and have tried to find out
New Britain herald., 1927-04-20

all the causes of twisted backbones.
 They point out that many cases of curvature begin the moment a child comes into the world, because too much pull IS exerted on one side of the new born infant. Fond parents often un- wittingl ly make cripples of their children
New Britain herald., 1927-04-20

\ you don't have to be born with
 warped, twisted body, or be in
 jured in an accident or damaged hy disease, in order 10 get into the pitt able ranks of hopeless cripples
 Medical science warns us that an in creasingly large number of people are slowly but surely making cripples of themselves through their bad habits of holding their bodies while at work or play.
 Habitually sitting with one leg thrown over the other, standing and walking in the now fashionable slouching attitude, using chairs not suited to your height and size and not shaped to give the body proper support-all these and many other seemingly innocent habits can cas- fly cause curvature of the spine and other serious deformities.
 Such deformities not only destroy the body's graceful symmetry but do great harm to the health by cramping the vital organs and forcing them out of their proper positions.
 Take, for example. the common habit of sitting with one leg thrown over the other. This is an attitude which nearly everybody finds comfortable and which seems to give the body needed rclaxa- tion, But it's all wrong, the posture ex- perts tell us.
 Such an attitude is to be avoided, thev say, because it throws the hips out of plumb, lifts one shoulder high above the other and forces the spine into an un- natural and unhealthful curve to com pensate for this position of the hips and shoulders. There is always danger that this curvature may become permanent and make the owner of the twisted spine a cripple for life.
 Then, too, the blood cannot circulate freely when the legs are pressed tightly together, as they are in this position, and rheumatism, neuritis and weakness of the muscles of the legs and feet may be the result Sometimes the "walk" becomes so abnormal that one is handi- capped in getting about and becomes something of a cripple in the eyes of his fellowmen.
 Quite as "crippling," the medical men point out, is the habit of curling one leg under the other-as so many girls and young women door slumping in chair so that the spine is arched outward and held against the back of the chair at point we'll up toward the shoulders
 Considerable study has been given to the effects of all these supposedly com fortable positions that people take when sitting down, under the general heading, 'Sitter's Diseases"
 An article recently published in a medical journal says that "the greatest enemy of civilized man is the humble and inconspicuous chair"
 "Man is not a sitting animal" the article continued. "Sitting is abnormal to him. Civilized man tries to normalize himself to the posture of sitting by do- ing as much of it as he can, but his structure is not adapted to it.
 "The muscles under the thigh are too short for it. They have to be too short for sitting to be the right length for moving the upright leg. In sitting as
