Protecting the Public

There was an implied promise, IN Une UNFAIR ana
vicious criticism of Frank c. Daley that he was a
utility lawyer and he untitled to protect the public
against the greeds of the electric, gas water and
transportation companies, that the incoming adj
rninistration will act only for the public welfare.
The sincerity of such promise will be found
in the warmth Of welcome which is given to the
anipulators of legislation who every two years
to guide the activities Of the legislature.
These lobbyists two years ago were more numer-
Gus than the members themselves, apparently had
unlimited funds and expense accounts stumbled over
each other in the corridors of the Statehouse and
hotel Hobbies and altogether were more or less OF
scandal.
Just why it should be necessary for any enter
prise which only asks for honest and fair treatment
TO send such ambassadors to the sessions is not eX
actly apparent on the surface.
The man with job or the farmer with crop
does not find it necessary to stand guard during the
Iawakng processes to see that his job is saved or
the crop protected
But the utility lobby in this state, which is coming
more and more under the domination of the insult
group, is always on the job ahead of the members
themselves always knowing exactly what it wants and
always-in the past-getting it.
EVERY "party" which these lobbyists throw for the
members, every meal they buy, their own salaries
which are not small is paid for in the finish by some
householder.
Their keep is found in the monthly bills OF consum-
ers, in telephone rates, in car fares.
The communities of this state which own their own
electric light plants should their members before
they leave home to beware of these genial gentlemen
of the utility lobby for there will unquestionaby be an
effort to destroy the publicly owned plants.
Those enterprises for the most part successful and
usually giving the people cheaper and better service
than the private utilities are subject to attack.
Each one of them is to the monopoly
which insult seeks in this state. They teach the peo-
ole that it is possible to their own affairs and to
attain freedom from extortion
These publicly owned utilities should be taken out
OF the jurisdiction of any state board and each COM
rnunity permitted to its plant as it desires.
That would protect public interest fear that this
will happen is one of the the lobby will be on
hand even earlier this session.

BaIdWin'S Naval Stand

Premier Baldwin wants closer
contact between England and the
United States. Finel So say we
all. The need of closer contact not
only between these two nations, but
among all nations is too obvious
for comment.
The benefit of closer contact,
however, depends in large measure
on the way it is established.
No doubt, the wish for a closer
contact was what led Premier
Baldwin to negotiate the naval
pact with France. No doubt, a
closer contact would have resulted
if circumstances had permitted him
to carry it out.
The mess in which he finds him
self is not due to the end he sought,
but to the means he employed. A
close contact established secretly
with France is not the way to pro-
mote closer contact with America.

The RothStein Case

New York authorities are dunn
founded. They simply cannot I'M
derstand why the murderer of Arm
old Rothstein, as we'll as several
witnesses of the crime, does not
come forward and surrender, espe-
cially since it has been intimated
that the charge may be no more
serious than that of manslaughter
Such lack of civic consciousness is
unthinkable. No wonder the au-
thorities feel they have gone about
as far as they can. No wonder they
balk at promising more. No WON
der they are chagrined at the I'M
grateful attitude by those whom
they have invited to come and gos-
sip with them so politely.
Still, something may have been
overlooked. Perhaps the invitation
was not properly worded, or deliv-
cred in accordance with the latest
convention. Perhaps something was
wrong with the style of type en-
ployed Perhaps the R. S. v. P. was
omitted.

No Swan Song by All

Governor Smith sings no swan
song. There is not a trace of bit
terness or encouragement in his
farewell address. Few men could
go through what he has during the
last few months, meet the great,
and to some extent unexpected de-
feat and bounce back with such
buoyancy within a week.
His gameness, craftsmanship and
good sense stand out in striking con-
trast to the whine and gloom of
some other Democrats.
Within seven days after losing one
of the most spectacular battles ever
waged in American politics, he finds
it possible to face the situation not
only with calmness, but a clarity of
mind which is amazing. His intelli-
gent summing up of the situation,
especially as it affects The future of
the Democratic party, comes as a
refreshing bit of sanity in the midst
OF an idiotically blue chorus.

claimed to have invented. 1t was a ridiculous pro-
cedure in which the poor animal covered over
with sort of plaster one ingredient of which was
hot vinegar.
So Pasteur suggested experiment Four animals
would be noculated with the germs of anthrax, but
only two would be given the horse doctors treatment
The experiment was tried Of the two given the
treatment died and one got well. OF the two not
given the treatment, one died and one got well.
In other words, the treatment had nothing to do
with the recovery.
So that matter was quickly settled.
But Pasteur had on his hands two animals
which had recovered from anthrax. He began to
think of something to do with them.
One day it occurred to him to inoculate them with
anthrax germs again and what happened.
He and his assistants noculated them Nothing
happened.
One attack of anthrax rendered an animal i'm
mune 1t could not get second attack.
Pasteur reasoned that if animal could be given
slight attack of disease, attack slight that
1t would do him HARM it would then render him
immune against any soious attacks.
But the problem how to do it. He and his
assistants finally solved the problem very largely by
accident while experimenting with the germs of
chicken cholera
They found that when they left a culture of germs
stand it grew weak well as old. When the chicken
inocuated with this weakened culture it was
then rendered immune against an attack of this
disease.
Important results were to grow from this dis
covery.

South leads the ace of diamonds
South then leads the jack of spades,
West winning the trick and North
discarding a club. On the next lead
of spades by West, North discards
another club and South discards
his remaining diamond.
West again leads a spade, North
discarding his last club, and East
must either trump or discard club
or diamond.
Should East trump, South then
overtrumps, and North and South
ruff the last three tricks. Should
East discard a club. South trumps

trump, South winning the trick and
taking the last trick with his club.
Should East discard a diamond.
South trumps and leads trump.
South then leads a club, North

If, at the second trick, West re-
fuses to top the jack of spades,
North discards his remaining dia-

THE human body is a compli-
l. Gated collection of muscles,
bones, nerves, blood vessels and
organs composed of living cells.
These tissues act upon fuel taken
into the body and through the
circulating medium, known as the
blood, develop secretions from glands
and activities of individual struc-
lures.
Hence it is impossible to consider
an individual from the standpoint
of any single organ, tissue, or system
alone. He must be considered in
stead as the sum of all of these
parts constantly acting and reacting
upon each other and to their
environment.
This state of affairs for any in
dividual constitutes what is known
as his constitution. Because of his
makeup he will tend to react to-
ward certain situations in definite
way. This tendency is known as
the individual disposition
The character of the person is
also largely determined not only by
