Poor Potatoes

Who started the idea that potatoes
cause fat, or that a reasonable
amount of fat is incompatible with
health, happiness and personal
charm? Letting that pass, it seems
to have caused the potato growers
a deal of harm.
A good many ideas which look in
nocent at the start react the same
way on one kind Of business, or
another.
Somebody said potatoes produced
fat, and that was more than enough.
Thousands If women, who had
grown up to believe in potatoes,
along with roast beef and the
British empire, staged a revolution.
Last year, we are informed, potato
consumption fell off in this country
by some 100000 bushels, while the
outlook for next year is worse.
Growers Of the lowly spud feel that
more has occurred than an argu-
ment as to what constitutes beauty.
They are up against it's dollar and
cents side. All of which, forebodeS
great advertising campaign to re-
habilitate potatoes in public
opinion.

case.
In the case of an infant that eats
too rapidly, much gas may be taken.
1t has been suggested that after
feeding the infant be held against
the mothers shoulder and patted
gently on the back, to aid eXpul-
sion of the gas.
The gas generated in the bowel
comes either from chemical changes
in food or from the action of
bacteria on the food or on the bowel
lining.

as cooked potatoes and tender meat,

Two Can Play

AS might be expected, in these
days of organized production and
expert publicity, advertising runs to
propaganda.
Contrary to. the common idea,
competition goes much farther than
rivalry between those engaged in the
same line. One business interferes
with another, though no one sus-
pected any connection between the
two. Worse still, advertising can
make one business interfere with
another, even though such a con-
nection does not exist.
The latest illustration is to be
found in that promotion gem when
you feel like a sweet, smoke a Lucky
instead" In other words, quit candy
for cigarets. The candy makers are
shocked and surprised. They find
the competition doubly cruel be-
cause it was unexpected. Their most
logical move would be to tell the
public that when you feel like a
cigaret, eat bonbon."

A Federal Deficit?

Submission of the budget to congress for the fiscal
year which begins next July reveals that prospective
expenditures of the federal government have reached
point where deficit is easily possible. The COM
Portable SURPRISES of recent years have vanished be-
cause of larger appropriations and diminished reve-
nues.
Congress is asked to appropriate for next year
total of $447369 904 for all branches of the govern
ment, which includes a postal appropriation of
$816OOOOOO most OF which is rembursibe. This is
66 more than was appropriated for the current
year, and some $50 100000 than the maximum
set by the President last summer 1t Is estimated That
this outlay will leave a surplus OF $6O576,l82.
The budget also shows that the surplus for the
current fiscal year. originally estimated at $25254O28S
has dwindled to an estimated $3699o192
Thus income and expenditures approaching
the balancing point Any unusual authorizations by
congress may convert the expected surplus into
deficit
The new budget does not allow for the $SOOOOOOOO
or $4OOOOOOO0 farm relief loans to the proposed
sterilization corporations 1t does not provide Tor the
projected cruiser building program, which will cost
$274O 900 over period Of several years.
Nor is allowance made for the possibility OF appro-
nriations for Boulder Dam and Muscle Shoals, in
creasing the shipping boards revolving fund.- pension
increases and numerous other things for which legls-
laton is pending 1t should be remembered also that
supplemental estimates and deficiency bills ordinarily
add materially to phe original budget estimates
Congress must check the tendency of recent years
toward continually larger appropriations seek new
sources of revenue.
'It is clear that we can not assume any great adj
dtional expenditures without eopardzing this favor
able outlook" said President Coolidge, commenting on
the expected surplus. eve committed rrevocably
to balanced budget and that carries the assurance
that the only revision of tax laws which will be
considered is a revision downward.
1--WE have no immediate prospect Of any further
reduction in tax rates; but we have no thought OF
curtaiing in any way the benefits which have gone
to the people by the four reductions already made
in taxes"

Experts Needed

Recognizing the Importance of finding some way
to relieve the farm situation President B. F. Yoakum
of the Empire Mortgage and Bond corporation, says
"The Federal Farm board should be composed Of
those familiar with farm requirements, capable Of
dealing with business and marketing problems and
understanding interstate and foreign commerce-no
lame ducks or political appointees."
That's plain common sense. But political appoint
ments to political hospitals for lame ducks is what
we are accustomed to get from politically minded
Presidents Sometimes the result is an administration
of public affairs by Falls DaughertyS, Denbys, Mllers,
and Forbeses.
While there is no way by which we may measure
accurately all the motives and influences that led
to Hoovers big majority, surely not the least among
them was the belief that he was not politically
minded, but was disposed both by experience and
inclination to go at job like engineer and turn
the work over to experts.
So there is reason to hope that whatever can be
done will be done during the coming four years to
put experts who know their business on farm relief
and other governmental problems.
And so far as the general run Of American people
is concerned it is probable that by tackng govern
ment as an engineering job Hoover will turn out to
be a much better politician than some of the pro-
fessionals think he is.
Anyhow, the future doesn't look so bright for
political parasites.

Nepotism in Congress

Although the salary of a congressman is $4,000
year. some have found way to add few additional
thousands and they do it legally
In addition to his salary member of the house
is allowed $4,000 for office help. Presumably this
goes to secretary and two assistants. Actu-
ally in many goes to relatives of the congress
Many congressman have their brothers, sisters
children other relatives the government payroll
The practice is so general that complaint is sell
dom made and no concerted move has been attempted
to get law prohibiting relatives from serving.
On the senate side the practice is not so general
Senators are allowed than $4,000 for office help
provision being made for four employees at salaries
ranging from $4,000 down to $3.50. Occasionally
senator is found who has a relative working in his
office but this is unusual One is said to be
that senators as rule are wealthy than house
members and not SO dependent upon the government
for their income.
Whether congressman ought to put his relatives
on the government payroll is debatabe question.
If the relative actually works and earns the money,
perhaps no objection can be found.
If the relative collects the salary and doesn't do
anything, the money rghtfully belongs to the tax
payers and not to the individual receiving it,

Food for Thought

Food advertising originated in an
honest effort to improve diet. In
the beginning, cook, doctors and
manufacturers We'd with each other
not only to make something better
but to balance the ration.
AS the thing proceeded, the cooks
and doctors were robbed of the spot
light by the manufacturers and
their publicity agents. Their adj
vice was garbled to suit the needs
of trade. Phrases were ripped out
of sentences, sentences were ripped
out of paragraphs and paragraphs
we're ripped out of papers for the
sake of craftsmanship. Health ceased
to be the object. 1t became a grand
scramble to get business by pre-
senting various products as givers
of life, health and beauty.
Meanwhile, the 17-year-old South
Dakota girl and the 15-year-old
Michigan boy, who just have been

Education, Not Law

Three children in five years are
enough, especially if the husband
earns only $24 a week part of the
time. The problem is, however, to
make young people understand as
much, for they are the only ones
who can exert influence through adj
vice and information.
If young married people want to
go on producing more children than
they can support, who can stop
them? Can you. can I, can their
relatives or friends, can an act en-
titled an act?
You can teach people birth con-
troll, but you cannot make them ex-
ercise it unless they want to.
Setting up an ideal, theorizing
about it, or even teaching it as de-
sirable, is a far different thing than
approaching it from the standpoint
of authoritative decree.

The Gas Utility


City officials and civic bodies will be derelict in
their duties and obligations if they fail to take every
precaution against any possible action that will pre-
vent the city from taking the gas plant in 1880
The local engineering society has published its
opinion that the city has every right to the plant at
the end of the franchise period and that it should
exercise that right.
The president of the gas company assures the
people that the gas company is ready to do every
thing that it is legally compelled to do. That of
course is what every citizen and every business
terprise is compelled to do willingly or unwillingly
The gas company stands in peculiar relation to
the public inasmuch it was found on very def
mite plan of providing cheap gas and ultimate public
ownership.
The men who founded the company, to meet
public urgency, were public spirited They knew that
gas is a necessity They believed that the public
should have all the benefits that could come from
fair partnership.
They provided that those who invested their
money start the company should be generously re-
paid for their use of the money and that the people
should be as generously treated for the their
streets.
Under the contract the investors to receive 10
per cent each year as interest on their money and
when they had received this annual interest and the
full amount of the original investment the city shall
then own Cne company anu Operate IL
Of all citizens.
That was a fair bargain 1t was considered fair
by those who put in their dollars The people accepted
it in good faith.
The company has grown, largely through its own
earnings.
Its physical value is now worth many millions
more than the amount originally invested or borrowed
1t has amassed huge reserve funds.
The exact status is not definitely known, since
the company time ago abandoned publication OF
it's financial statements provision for which was made
in the original partnership agreement The engineers
say that the company should at once resume this
practice in order that the people may know, as they
are in reality partners in the enterprise
There is one disturbing aspect of the situation.
The shares in the company have face value of $25
That is the sum which should be received by holders
at the end of the term of private control. Yet on
the stock markets and in the banks the shares are
given value of more than twice this amount That
suggests that some stockholders may endeavor to set
aside the original intent of the agreement and try to
keep the company in permanent private ownership
The situation is that calls for most careful
ccrutiny, Even if the majority of the stockholders
desire to carry out their contract there may be some
holder who will appeal to courts on technical grounds
to destroy the intent of the contract.
The city should and must .bulwark its own posi-
ton so that negligence on its part will prevent the
taking over of the Giant Had this city or any city OF
it's size kept all it's public utilities, citizens would
draw dividends instead of being compelled to pay
taxes.
