Acute Infectious Ills Affect Heart

some too severe strain brought a
prompt fatality.
Modern study attempts to estab-
fish the exact capacity of the heart
and to find for the individual an
occupation suited to his condition.
With the heart, as with other
portions of the body, it is extreme
ly difficult to separate the effects
that are purely mental from those
that are physical.
Associated with the shock of the
World war there were many cases
of neurocirculatory asthenia, or
weakness of the heart and nervous
system, in which patients suffer
from palpitation and pains and
weakness without any physical
change actually being present.
1t is an extremely difficult dag
nostic task to separate such cases
from actual cases of heart disease.
In all this work the newer de-
vices developed and the research
that has come from the laboratories
Of physiology, pathology and bac-
teriology throughout the world have
been of inestimable value.
The endowments that continue to
grow for furthering such investiga-
ton are going to make a much
safer and happier world for men,
women and children of the future.

TT is known to the specialist in
Il heart disease that this organ
may become inefficient and degen-
crate for many reasons.
For instance, the acute infectious
diseases may leave a weakened
heart in their wake, infections of
the throat and of the teeth may be
transferred to the valves of the
heart and to the lining of the heart
with disastrous results. Venereal
disorders sometimes produce strange
changes in tissues Of the heart.
AS man grows older, the strain
upon this muscle becomes greater
and greater. It attempts to COM
pensate for the strain by charging
and by stretching, and its function
is modified.
There are many unSolved riddles
yet to be answered before diseases
of the heart will be brought fully
under medical control.
No one knows exactly why the
germs from the throat or teeth To-
calize in the heart in certain cases
and produce their changes. This
has to do perhaps with the con-
stitution or hereditary stock of the
individual.

They Must Be Punished

Grant county, Indiana, stands fortn To-
day as bloody blot on the long scroll that
is the history of civilization.
A twelve-hour reign of bestiaity ended
this morning with men gone mad gazing with
fear-filrned eyes at the bodies of two Negroes
swaying from tree on the courthouse lawn

The disgrace that is Grant countys is
Indianas disgrace in the eyes of the world.
Indiana must act now to wipe out this stain.
No cursory investigation, no whitewashlng
of influential citizens, no endless court de-
lays will be tolerated.
The dead can not breathe again, the

THE ARNIADA'S DEFEAT

ON Aug. 8, 1888, the Spanish
~ Armada, a powerful feet
equipped by Philip II Of Spain for
the conquest Of England, was
destroyed of Gravelines, England,
by the British fleet.
Philips purpose in sending the
Armada was three-fold: To sup
press English Professionalism, to stop
English piracy in South America,
and to prevent English aid from
reaching the rebellious Netherland-
ers.
The fleet itself, which consisted
of 131 vessels, was considerably
weakened by storms on its trip from
Lisbon to England. Only seventy
actually could be used in an en-
gagement. The main English feet,
consisting of eighty much smaller
vessels, was all fit for action.
AS the Spanish galleons numbered
up the English channel, they were
unable to return the rapid shot Of
the English because Of their slow
delivery. Driven of Gravelines, the
helpless Armada was riddled by
English shot.
The wind rose to a storm and
drove both fleets to the north. The
Spanish admiral saw his only
chance Of escape around the north
of Scotland. Storm and wreck fol-
lowed him and only ABOUT fifty
vessels returned home.
The destruction of the Armada
proved the collapse Of SPANS naval
power.

1T simply isn't true, according to

spent few weeks in Europe and
ought to know.
The much talked about antagon-
ism created by the Smoot- Hawley
bill is just another pipe dream, in
his opinion.
He failed to discover even slight
irritation over the way we have
boosted duties.
Instead, he found not only an
intelligent, but favorable concep-
ton of the doctrine of protection.
"They (Europeans)) recognize the
right of each country to do what it
finds best to promote its individual
prosperity" he says, land they
think, as we do, that protection is
a necessity.
so, there is, as far as can OBJ
serve, not only such good feeling as
had existed since the World war, but
an increase of good feeling"

That Drought Blessing

MYTH corn over a dollar, and
wv wheat or 10 cents higher, it
only remains for optimists to tell
lis what a blessing this drought
really is.
They may get rise out Of some
farmers who we're fortunate enough
to park where it rained, but they
will find it harder to convince
those who have nothing to sell that
higher prices mean very much.
Also, they will find it harder to
make consumers see the bright
side of the picture, once the tin
can and cold-storage crowd gets
into action.
II the optimists want convincing
arguments, they should wait until
spectators have gained control of
the market. Then, and not till
then, shall we know what the
drought amounted to as price
booster.
Railroads are going to be good
and ship lean cattle to luxuriant
forage, or luxuriant forage TO lean
cattle, at reduced rates.
So, too, the farm board will make
loans where 1t can find co-opera-

the same time you still have the de-
mand. And the prices are higher
than ever.
The formula is so simple it is in
credible that none of the country's
great statesmen ever though Of
trying it out before. Consider the
ballyhoo possibilities. Stick with
Tess. Bigger and better droughts.
Or, down with rain and up with

Now Keep That Pledge

A great wrong will be righted and the
stain of shame wiped from lndiana's name
if members of the state highway commission
keep the pledge they made Thursday, in III
terviews with The Times.
The chairman and all but one commits
sioner stated emphaticaly that they would
move at once to end the system of virtual
slavery that exists on many Hoosler high
way projects.
Contractors who have beaten down their
EMPLOYEES to a starvation wage schedule will
be made to pay the penalty of their misdeeds
if this promise is adhered to. They will feel
the weight of official wrath and public indig-
nation if they persist in their vicious course.
They will be blacklisted on future contracts
if the commission stands by its guns and
does not weaken.
No credit goes to Governor Leslie if this
shocking situation is relieved. He appar-
emily gave no heed to the fact that hundreds
of laborers were forced to live like Serfs, be-
cause grasping contractors on state jobs took
advantage of the unemployment situation to
grind them down to 20 cents an hour.
A word from the Governor to the high
way commission and there would have been
action long before this. But the Governor
has been too busy making his term in office
one continual vacation to be bothered with
the woes of the citizens he is paid to serve.
It would be interesting information if
some statistician should come forward with
a chart showing exactly how many days the
Governor has been at his desk, giving atten-
ton to affairs of state. 1t is certain that
little or none of this time has been devoted
to study of the highway wage situation.
One commissioner declares that he is
ready to visit the highways where peonage
has been the rule and see to it that decent
wage is restored. This is an excellent idea.
In no other way could the shocking injustice
be brought home more emphatically to the
commission.
An hours inspection of the conditions
under which men wo1'Z in the blistering sun
should be enough to convince the most skep-
teal of commissioners that wage slashing is
a crime. 1t should prove to them that
profteering in peace time is as criminal as
profteering in war time.
The state expects the commission to 1--we
up to its pledge and strike the shackles from
hundreds of toilers who have accepted con-
ditions imposed by contractors rather than
see their wives and children starve.
The state expects to see the guilty con-
tractors punished in the way they best I'M
derstand-the way that will be the most
-.s-f,,f y. 41,an, tho xyav Of their n0cket-
books, swollen with profits ground out of the
workmen who have stumbled along at their
toll, bowed beneath the contractors yoke.

It's All the Same
WE are little better of if all
wv CONGRESSMAN Dempsev saw,

WE are little better off if all
w Congressman Dempsey says
is true.
When you get right down to brass
tackS, the doctrine of protection
leads to exactly the same result,
whether adopted as a means Of
retaliation, or because people be-
lieve in it.
If the Europeans really "think as
we do" and translate their think
ing into Smooth awley bills, what
is the difference?
OF course, we rather would have
them do it with SMILE" just as
we rather would have a surgeon
look pleasant when he begins to
