REMEMBER

Disease germs have three aven-
ues of entrance into the human sys-
tenn. They may be inhaled, swal-
lowed, or may get in through in
cised or scratched wounds of the
skin.
In warm weather, when most of
our houses are wide open, the dam
ger of inhaled germs is practically
nil. Pure air is a wonderful disin-
fectant, capable, except against
the tubercular germ, which should
be guarded against at all seasons
Most acquired infections in sum
mer. are of the digestive tract; the
bacteria are swallowed with fooC
or water. We should therefore bt
discriminative at this season. di

President Green In Farley
On Welfare of Children

Washington -(FP)- President
Green of the American Federation
OF Labor was one of the partici-
pants in the preliminary meeting
at the White House on july 20. al
which committees were named ia
prepare studies for the National
Conference on Child Health and
Child Protection. This conference
will be called next year by Presi-
dent Hoover. A private person
whose name is kept secret, has Civ
en- 100000 to finance these studies
and the conference.
Green's immediate interest in the
work is the defense of the Fedora
TONS position that child health
and protection can be most surely
promoted by ratification of the
Child Labor amendment to the fed.
eral constitution. After that, he is
interested in all practicable meas
ures for keeping children out of a
position of need to compete with
adults in gainful occupations.
Secretary Wilbur of the interior
Department is chairman of the
conference organization. Grace Alb
bott, chief of the u. S. Children's
Bureau, is one of the most active
members in the preliminary stages
of the project. There will be 20 OF
more committees. The value of the
work will largely depend upon the
extent to which reactionary bust
ness elements get control of the
chairmanships of these commit
tees.

Dr. Frank Crane SAYS

In fact if anything, women are the
shrewder of the two.
Don't go to your grocer or to a
successful business friend, but to a
financial expert for your advice.
This is but common sense. You
wouldn't go to your minister for
medicine if you were sick. You
wouldn't go to your doctor to talk
about your spul. And when you
want to talk about your money go
to an expert.
The investment business is con-
stantly growing more and more
complex. 1t is impossible for any
person of the ordinary type TO
make intelligent selections himself.
Any modern bank will supply
you with an investemnt expert and
it is a good plan to listen to his adj
vice. He may not offer you securi
ties bringing great returns, but
his counsel will be safe.
Even the wisest managers of
their own business dare not trust
their Judgment in the matter of in
vestments. There are so many Sc
curities on the market, some of
them extremely hazardous and by
badly managed concerns, that only
one familiar with investments can
weed these out and tell you what
is safe.
Above all you do not want to i'm
peril your principal and the more
money you have the more neces-
sary it is to consult those who
know, and not follow your own
judgment.

AUTO BOSS BUYS
BRAINS CHEAP
By Robert L. Cruden

By Robert l.. Cruden, Fed. Press
Pontiac, Mich.-Automoblie en-
ployees have a good reserve stock
show in their day-to-day work, but
of technical ability that they don't
show in theid da-to-day work, but
in financial matters the bosses are
easily their superiors. This is the
conclusion suggested by a two
weeks anti-waste campaign re-
Gently carried out by the Oakland
Motor Car Co., at its Pontiac plant
Suggestions made by employees
during these two weeks will save
the company over half million
dollars during the coming year, ac-
cording to estimates made by off
Gals of the company. That the
campaign was good business is
shown by the fact that the COM
pany spent only $4,000 on it.
Of this the workers received
81 PAT in prizes. 1245 suggestions
proved of value to the company but
only 100 prizes were awarded. Sug.

prize got nothing. The average
amount received by a prize winner
was $12.47. The average amount
saved by the company in a year
on each suggestion it adopted was
$435.34.
The suggestion that won the first
prize was a plan to use Phil-fue
for the block test of motors In
place of gasoline or city gas. This
suggestion contained full details
as to the cost of Installing the e.
quipment necessary for the use Of
this gaseous fuel.
Chester J. Flynn, who made this
suggestion had the joy of seeing
his phiz on the front page of Re
flector, the daily which the man
agement put out during the two
weeks of the campaign. According
to the estimate submitted, the e.
quipment proposed by Flynn would
pay for itself in little over &
year, and thereafter the company
operating expenses would be dimin
ished by $2,597 per month. Flynn'I
prize amount to 500.

One of the two is believed to be

Belief that the two men might

an investigation.
One of the men was middleaged,

Due to the fact that neither of

ical intent, July 80, that he still
stood by President Hoover's pledge
of naval reduction rather than
mere naval limitation. Further, he
was willing that the army posts in
Idaho be abandoned and the land
used for public parks. Borah point
ed out that Hoover's idea of ask
ing the army to recommend its
own reduction was in conflict with
all the instincts of military body
and that naval reduction seemed
likewise to be fading out.
