Washington, Nov. 2O.-Senor DR..
Don Carlos Davila, ambassador
extraordinary and minister plenipo-
tertiary from the Republic of Chile,
was instrumental if not chiefly re-
sponsible in the matter of arranging
President-elect Hoover's visit to
Latin America. Ambassador Davila
is one of the most progressive and
energetic members of the diplomatic
colony here.
Until he was sent on his mission
to Washington he was a newspaper
man. He hasn't been here long
enough to determine whether he
would rather be that or diplomat.
But he was so long the editor of a
morning newspaper in Santiago that
he still does a great deal of his work
at night from force of habit.
His journalistic reputation in Chile
was so great that it was assumed
that his diplomatic achievements
could never quite create another rep
utation to equal it. But there be-
gins to be some doubt about that.
Few newcomers in the corps during
recent years have made such favor
able impression. Conversation with
Davila reveals that he knows far
more about the United States-its
business. politics and history-than
the average Americana.
a.
We found out just how up-and-
coming Senior Don Davila was last
spring when he flew to the Foreign
Trade Convention at Houston and
back. The ambassador threw a
luncheon in honor of the Latin-Amer-
lean good will flyers which was at
tended by War Secretary Davis and
Navy Secretary Wilbur. They were
telling him Of their attempts to make
the country air-minded. It appeared
that Don Carlos himself was so air
minded that he habitually hoped
into an airplane as unthinkingly as
one might mount bicycle, a buggy
or motor car. So he was offered an
army plane to take him to Houston.
1t was rather surprising that Chile
didn't lose perfectly good ambas-
sador, as things turned out. He flew
first to Fort Bragg and then toward
Montgomery, Ala. Forced down al

FRACTURES AND BROKEN
BONES
(Cnnfinnndl

It is better not to try to remove
the clothing from the injured part
before the arrival Of doctor unless
the patient is bleeding profusely.
Bleeding should be stopped by pres
sure: if from an artery, the pressure
should be close to the wound between
it and the heart; if from a vein,
the pressure should be close to the
wound with the wound between the
point Of pressure and the heart.
Arterial blood comes out in jets
from the direction of the heart, and
venous blood in steady stream
from the direction of the extremities.
A broken back is very serious and
may cause death unless handled by
an expert. No attempt should ever
be made to turn the patient with a
broken back over on his face. The
best position is directly on the back
until doctor can make careful in
spection.
In fractures of the skull there is
nothing that non medical aid can do
except to keep the patient on his
back with the head slightly raised
and apply cold congresses to the in
jury. If the surgeon is greatly de-
layed, it may be advisable to admin
lister castor oil to clean out the
bowels.
Compound fractures should be
splinted as are simple fractures and
in addition, great care must be exer-
cised to keep the wound clean. Plain
boiled water may be used to wash
away dirt. One must be careful to
keep the jagged edges of the broken
bone from doing more damage.
In most fractures it is advisable
to apply cold congresses to assist
in reducing the swelling until the
doctor is able to make his examina-
ton.
Never attempt to transport per-
son with a broken long bone without
the support of a splint.
If you should be injured, yourself,
where no help is to be had, you
should use the same methods of
splinting that you should on another
person before you attempt to travel.
The after treatment of fractures
must be handled by a doctor or hos
pital. The condition is too serious
for amateurs to attempt treatment.
However, should you be out in the
wilderness where no doctor is OBJ
tainable, you should put padded
splints about the injury and stretch
the injured limb in as normal a po-
sition as possible.
The site of the injury may be
treated with cool wet congresses.
The diet should consist for the first
week almost exclusively of raw
fruits and non-starchy vegetables.
In practically every fracture of a
long bone it is necessary for the
surgeon to use stretching process
termed extension" to prevent a
shortening of the limb or overlap
ping of the bones.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Soft Teeth

Question: Reader writes: "My
dentist has told me my teeth are
softening. What is the cause and
cure for this ?"
Answer: The softening Of teeth
is caused either through lack Of or
ganic minerals in your diet or be-
cause Of systematic acidosis which
is destroying these mineral elements
as rapidly as you are putting them
into your body through food. be-
lieve the tendency toward soft teeth
is usually developed in early child
hood or even before the child is born.
If this is recognized early enough in
life it may be possible to bring
about structural changes in the
teeth, but usually the best that can
be done is to prevent the trouble
from becoming worse.
Erythema Nodosum
Question: Mrs. N. R. M. writes:
II am a woman Of "a and had
erythema nodosum about eight weeks
ago and am weak from it yet. Can
you tell me the cause of this disease,
and how long it lasts?"
Answer: This is an inflammatory
skin disease marked by tender red
nodules due to emulation Of blood
and serum, and accompanied by in
tense itching and burning. The
LESSONS appear in successive patches.
and the disease lasts for several
weeks. 1t is considered highly i'm
fictitious but can be quickly cured by
the application of certain remedies
which your doctor or druggist can
furnish you.
Normal Weight
Question: l.. J. writes: "Please
state the normal weight of person
from childhood to manhood"
Answer: The weight would vary
with the height and measurement at
the different ages; also in relation
to glandular activity and temper
ament. No set standard can be used,
but each case must be judged separ-
ately.

On Tuesday evening of this week dinner held
in Valley City, N d.. to celebrate unique event.
The event was nothing less than this Norma town.

Norma township in Barnes county-whch is the
township west Of Fingal n D., was the first town.

This extraordinary result had been brought about
following determined campaign staged by the Greater

happy indeed is the outlook for Norma townships agri

towards stabilized and solvent agriculture. Hence

northwest Norma township is simply in the Of the
movement and Makes therefore, conspicuous symbol
OF what is taking place in economic hinterland.
Since stabilized and solvent agriculture is the
foundation not only of the northwest but Of the
CITY OF Minneapolis we may rejoice in the fact that
TINS foundation is being made strong and solid
several lessons are TO be derived from the record
made by Norma township. They are:
First that the message Of dversifcation may be

Second, that the northwest has no more valuable
than an energetic and competent county agent
heart and-soul on the job.
Third that far-seeing and active development as
ISOLATION like the Greater North Dakota association
can accomplish wonders in leading state into the right
economic path.
These lessons should not be ignored. The Tribune
has constantly preached the benefits city and country
alike OF ctyandcountry cooperation. That is ndis-
pens.be It agriculture and industry are to have bal
anced and mutually profitable development The record
made by Norma township is brilliant vndication Of
this belief; and it also shows what may be expected
more efforts Of similar sort are made. One would

SUNNY TO GET
CAPACITY SEEMS
GOOD FORECAST

Sunny" the sparkling musical
comedy which ran for almost two
years in New York, comes to the
Grand theatre tomorrow night for
one performance only.
1t is said to be one of the largest
companies ever to visit the local
playhouse. With book and lyrics
by Otto Harbach, author of mo,
No, Nanette," and other successes,
aided by Oscar Hammerstein II, and
music by the gifted composer, Je-
rome Kern, Sunny has enjoyed
long runs wherever it has been dis
closed. The story unfolded con-
Germs a circus star, known as Sun
ny, who runs away from the show
to follow her lover to America. The
scenes are laid on the circus lot in
England, aboard ship, and in Amer
lea, and are massive and beaueiful.
Helen Patterson will be seen in the
name part, to which she brings a
lovely personality, and unusual
gifts as a comedienne and dancer

hend the largest and liveliest group
of girls and boys ever seen in a
musical play.
Ticket salelJ are reported to have
been unusuallyN heavy. There still
are two days in which to secure
seats for the show, but from reports
of sales to date, it appears likely
that the standing room sign will be
hung out before the certain risel

JESUIT SCHOL AR.
is STABBED BY
MAN.

ROME, Feb. % tR-Father Tacchi-
Ventura, noted Jesuit scholar, who has
acted as chief negotiator between
the vatican and the government OF
the Roman question" was the OBJ
iect of an attack yesterday, which
has given the authorities much con-
Germ. His assailant was arrested.
The veil shrouding the circunn-
stances of the mysterious St3Soing OF
the learned priest in "the house OF
Jesuits was lifted only slightly by
the police tonight. The authorities
divulged that two days ago a man
quite well dressed and calling himself
''de Angels" and by profession a
bookkeeper, called at the house and
insisted that he had urgent reasons
to speak with Father Tacchi-Ven-
tIlri
The porter replied that the Rev.
Father was extremely busy and could
not receive anybody; the visitor then
retired, promising to return.
When the man returned to the
house of the Jesuits he was uShered
into Father Tacchi- -Venturi'S pres
ence. Almost Immediately he leaped
at him, stabbing him in the neck
with a paper cutter
The porter, from whom the police
gained most Of their information con-
corning the assault, later tonight said
that the assailant had said he wish
ed to confess, and to have insisted on
his second visit that it was the priests
duty to hear him.

JOHN DOE GETS
RIDE FROM CITY
HE is DISTURBER

Police ordered John Doe from
the city yesterday. Apparently be-
cause the man was worthless and
because officer4 have sympathy
for worthless people and do not like
to cause them embarrassment, the
name was written John Doe on the
blotter. This particular John hap
pened to be a "coke head" or user
of cocaine, which he shifted into
his nostrils.
Police got him when, wild with
too much of the drug, or wild for
want of it, he attempted to wreck
rooming house on the south side
of town. That was late Sunday
night. By Monday noon the jailed
man had become frantic for want
Of the drug. He raved and shout
ed and roared and cried. He wept
and cursed and prayed and scream
ed. Finally he was permitted a
small amount of drug. Other ad-
diets suffering just as much, lay
turned the lip in scorn at this
weakling, as they called him. Tues
day he had worn off the effects of
Mondays stuff and rallied and
ranted
So, during the afternoon a car
was gotten ready and John Doe was
taken from his nice, warm cell and
his screaming want of more drugs
and rushed far across the great
open spaces until so diitant from
Douglas that there was little chance
that he would ever return. There
he was deposited beside a freight
train with orders to "keep moving" ;"
The officers ask, what can you
do?" AS long as the man is kepa
in the jail he screama and curses.
He must have drugs, he must be
visited by a physician, he must be
fed at the taxpayers expense. 9th
ers in the same Jail cannot sleep
for the rantings of the addict. He
has committed no crime for which
he might be hung and no Jail wants
him. It would be wrong to turn
him loose upon Douglas. 1t is
wrong to turn him loose anywhere,
but there is the lesser evil of turn
ing him out in the great open
places, where he +can go away and
not scream and rant in the Doug
las jail anymore.
