AS l view this matter the acuteness of the present situation does not come so much from the in- sistent demand Of the so-called op pressed ones. as from the activities of that comparatively small group of well meaning, mentally bored, more or less idle rich who are talk ing thls problem as an outlet for their otherwise unoccupied energies.
 Certainly it may be said that the individual fee received by physicians cannot account for the complaints against us and it may be that The true difficulty may lie in the ela- borate and expensive diagnostic pro- cedure which the public has come to demand"

New Orleans, La, July 12 UP)- The street car mems strike which paralyzed New Orleans transporta- ton for two weeks and resulted Tn rioting, bloodshed and death, ap- preached a crisis today with both factions standing pat on their de- mands.
 Open Shop Policy
 The Public Service Company, operator of the tram system, une- ouivocally has rejected demands Of 2,000 men for more pay and shorter hours, and has declared an "open shop" policy under which they plan to resume operations with strike breakers tomorrow or Sunday. Re strained by an injunction granted the company by Federal Judge Wayne G. Borah, the disgruntled men sought temporary employment elsewhere today. while officials of their own organization announced pledge to observe the court order.
 A committee of seven citizens ap- pointed by the city commission council met again today in alter nate efforts to bring the two factions together. Thus far the committee has been unable to get both sides together.
 The company announced that sev- eral undivulged suggestions made to it by the committee, would be given consideration, leading to renewal of hope that a settlement might yet be effected.
 Protection Probable There was every indication today, however that when the next at tempt 10 operate cars is made the federal government will back the gesture to the limit. U. S. Marshal Victor Loisel has augmented his force by 250 men.
 Furthermore, Judge Borah, in sentencing two strikers to jail for contempt of court by lettering near company after issuance of the june ton, threatened drastic measures" if necessary to enforce the ruling.

and women beg even for the
right to buy standing room. The
customers came from the ground
in the tube from all over New
York. They came in taxis and
hundreds on foot and the very
wealthy came in their own large
and beautiful cars with drivers. Fur
coats worth fortunes rubbed elbows
with students with only enough
money to buy a so cent seat. And
the answer to this strange sight is
that Eva LIE Caffeine and her
Civic Repertory theater has made
men and women actually want to go
to the theater, They know that
some of the best known people on
the American stage make up the
acting list, such as LIE Gallienne,
Ala NaZimova, who has been star
in her own right for years. Also
John Eldredge, Alma Kruger and
Robert H. Gordon. And all for
$1.50 for the best seats, none never
higher, and club members of this
organization can get the best for
$1.35. Try and get seats.
The week Of Feb. 4, lie Caffeine
offered the following for the week:
Monday-'The Would Be Gentleman"
Tuesday-"The Cherry Orchard"
Wednesday-"Peter Pan" as matinee and
"On the High Road" at night.
Thursday-'L Invitation au Voyage"
Friday-"Hedda Gabler.'

am told that the only differ
ence in the attendance day in and
Gay out since the season opened last
fall has been in the number of those
standing.
When people will beg for standing
room then they must want to go to
the theater. And bless the in
dividual and those associated with
her who can accomplish this won
der today.
And for the $3.50 price, the Civic
Theater offers stage settings and
intelligent lighting effects just the
same as the leaders on Broadway

Safety and conforms with the funda-
mental rule of the road. The Wash
ington turn does neither and is a
breeder Of congestion and an invitation
to accident when practiced, as 1t is
here, at other than regulated inter-
sections.
In reference to the "speed-mad" New
York pedestrians and the patience
loving" Washington walkers, 1t may as
we'll be admitted here and now that
the alleged pedestrian control" of the
District is nothing but myth. Wash
ington has no pedestrian control save
an inconspicuous and innocuous clause
In the traffic regulations to which no
one pays any attention. Washington
has made valiant efforts to have in
cluded in the regulations reasonable
and enforceable pedestrian regulation
because it is firmly of the opinion that
in these days of teeming traffic all
street users should be subject to con-
troll. but Washington's "patience-lov-
ing pedestrians have succeeded each
time in blocking it.
In conclusion, there would seem to
be no real reason for New Workers to
feel that in his desire to be courteous
guest Mr. Goodrich had been even re-
motely disparaging of his own city's
traffic control. New York, after all,
does use the Hoover turn and will
doubtless continue to use it if the views
of the President-elect and the great
body of experts from all parts Of the
United States continue to be respected.
And New York, while not having Pc
destrian control, need not feel ashamed.
Few other cities have it and while its
desirability is probably admitted even
by New York 1t will be some years be-
fore the public will universally come
around to it. AS matter of fact New
York, 1t would seem, has all the best
of Washington in its progressive ham
ding of great volume of traffic, so
there need be no bleeding hearts up
Manhattan way over the guest remarks
of the member Of the American En-
cheering Council

Issue of Newspaper
Makes 3O7-Page Book

FROM tne 6OauCkc WOTlQ-NeWS.
AS an illustration of the amount of
material that goes into the making of
a daily newspaper the Philadelphia Bull
letin has taken a single issue of It's
paper-that for June 4, 1928-and re-
published it in book form After elimi-
mating all advertising and all large
headlines, 1t makes a bound volume of
BOT pages-the size of the average novel
papers as the New York Times, if
printed in book form, would make a
much larger volume.
The book issued by the Bulletin Is
entitled "One Day" 1t is designed to
show how single copy of the Evening
Bulletin looks when published as a
book. With the exception of brief
introduction and an occasional foot
note, the volume Is strictly limited to
the contents of one edition.
The issue selected for this undertake
ing was slightly below normal in size.
1t contained 102.48 columns of news,
editorials. pictures and reading matter
of all kinds. while the average for June
was 1929 columns.
The demonstration that modern
afternoon newspaper assemblies, sets up
and prints the equivalent of book a
day will no doubt startle those who
have assumed from the price at which a
newspaper Is sold that the cost of its
preparation is small A great newspa-
per now prints, exclusive of advertis-
ing, as much as 100000 words a day
the size of the modern novel.
1t has taken the Bulletin since last
June to prepare and issue this mate
rial in book form. 1t took less than "a
hours to prepare and issue 1t in news
paper form.

Gov. Roosevelt Speaks.

Gov. Roosevelt Of New York has been
hailed in some Democratic quarters as
the leader of the party in national af-
fairs for the future. His victory in the
Empire State in the recent election
made him an outstanding figure. Al
ready the forecast has been made that
he may be presidential timber for 1882.
As a member OF the executive commit
tee of the Democratic national commit
tee the governor has undertaken to as
certain the views of three thousand
county and State leaders outside of his
own State on the future of his party.
This has been interpreted as an indica-
ton he Is already assuming leadership.
The governor the other day issued a
statement, based in part on the replies
he received from his QUESTIONABLE. In
this statement he wisely urged the
Democratic party to organize and keep
organized for the campaigns of 1890
and 1852. He referred to the folly of
laying aside the national organization
lin cotton wool" after each national
election and attempting to resurrect it
when election time rolls round every
four years. In this demand for more
activity the governor shows common
sense. But he did not stop there.
After declaring that the replies he
had received from the county leaders
indicated will to VIM in the future,
Gov Roosevelt said:
This clearly expressed feeling eau
only be compared to that which fol-
lowed the theft of the presidency in the
case of Mr.. Tilden"
Inferentially Gov. Roosevelt has
charged that the presidency was stolen
In the last election that the victory of
MFR. Hoover over former Gov Alfred e.
Smith was the result of theft. 1t is
doubtful that the American people, or
even majority of the Democrats. will
agree with this suggestion of the Gov
ernor of New York. Figured in terms OF
the popular vote or the vote as it will
be cast In the electoral college, Mr.
HooVer'S victory was complete.
Furthermore Gov. Roosevelt insists
that "bigotry, ignorance of Democrat;
principles, the spread by unspeakable
and un-American methods of the most
atrocious falsehocds, unfair and i'm
proper pressure brought to bear upor
workers in specially favored industries
false claims for the prosperity Of TIT
country and kindred propaganda
cheated, so my correspondents feel, on
party out of the presidency"
This sounds very much like the cam
paign of 1928 all over again. These wer
charges made constantly for weeks AM
months against the Republican part

@. What position did William How
ard Taft hold after he was President
and before he became Chief Justice OF
the Supreme Court?--H New.
A. He was professor in Yale Uni
versity.
@. How is salt water made fresh on
shipboard with an evaporator?-D. j.
A. In ship salt water is boiled in
evaporators. The steam rises through
pipe to distiller, which consists of coils
with cold water running over them.
This condenses the steam, forming fresh
water.
@. Please advise what makes my
young goldfish SO dark. A. r.
A. All young goldfish are dark in
color at first and change to bright colors
as they grow older. Some never change.
some change very early and others
change very late.

in the debate during the convention
which framed the Constitution
T. L. G.
A. c. H. Poore writes: washington,
the most influential and one of the
wealthiest men in the country, was
unanimously elected the presiding
officer. Throughout the con-
vention Washington presided with
extreme dignity. + i Occasionally
Washington yielded the chair and took
the floor himself when principle upon
which he had views to express was be-
fore the house and at such times he
voted with the Virginia delegation"
@. Do monkeys and other animals
use their right limbs more than their
left, as humans do?-A. L. r.

general do not use their right limbs
any more than their left. In some
species one limb is used more con-
stantly than the other.
O. When was the first organ built

@. What is the difference in lifting
power between helium and hydrogen
gaS?-W. L. D.
A. The Bureau of Standards says

foot under ordinary conditions. Hydro
gen will lift 0O71 pounds per cubic
foot.
@. If earthworms are not rained
down, how do they get into rain bar
rels?-W. r. w.
A. While tornadoes might occasional
ly account for earthworms and other
creatures coming down with rain, it
is more logical to reach different con-
clusion. Any Of the 40 to so kinds OF
birds which feed on earthworms might
carry them to the roofs or caves of
buildings, where they are washed OF
fall into the cutters and then find their
way into the rain barrels.
