GERS eyesight and ruined his nerves. There were years
Of it, too; for Ross Investigations came to nothing for a
long time. At last, however. he found a new species of
mosquito, got some specimens Of it-and found his
malaria germs in his specimens stonachs.
Within a short time he had proved his theory to a
~skeptical medical world and had enabled health organ
izations to cope with malaria for the first time in his
tory.
Nor was that all. It was his work that put the Amer
lean medical officers on the track Of the yellow fever
mosquito. The magnificent cleanup on that dreadful
disease in Cuba, Panama and the southern states of
America grew directly out of Ross work.
So that's Sir Ronald Ross. He was ~knighted for his
work-and then largely forgotten. Today England's
highest honors rest on the shoulders of her war leaders

kill and to be killed. The man who saved uncounted
thousands of lives, and whose work will go on saving lives
long after he himself is dead, is ignored.

are.

Not Martyrs: Just Silly

Three communists, arrested at Martins Ferry, O., last
summer, were held up to their red contemporaries all
over the nation as martyrs" after a Judge sentenced
them to five years in prison and fined them $4,000 apiece.
Their sentences helped other communis agitators very
materially. They gave them something to talk about:
enabled them to declare that the communists in this
country are being prosecuted"
Now, however, these communistic props have been
knocked out. The Ohio court of appeals has reversed the
conviction of the Martins Ferry trio. The judge who
wrote the opinion did not pass on the constitutionality
of the law under which the communists were sentenced;
he simply remarked that the ~inflammatory handbills
they distributed were just plain silly and inconsequential.
This action will do more to slow up the communists
work than the stiffest prison sentences that could have
been pronounced.

The University of Crime

If you happen to be one of those citizens to whom e-
pensive, up-to-date and humane prisons are simply a
waste Of money. you might consider the remarks made
recently by a bomber on whom the Chicago police man
aged to lay their hands.
This man told the police how he learned his trade"
He learned it, it appears, at the states exp~ense-learned
it while he was doing time in the notorious Ohio peni-
Tertiary for carrying concealed weapons.
I'm prison." he says, II met a bunch of safe blowers.
They told me all about cooking dynamite to get the nitro
out of it. I Thought it would be great to be a safe blower
and I also heard there were plenty of chances for bomb
ers in Chicago"
And there you are. Because ohios prison was too an
tiquated and inadequate to ~segregate its prisoners and
keep them busy, but left them to loaf day after day in
the idle house" it became a sort of university Of crime.
This Chicago bomber was simply one of its graduates. s

Anniversary of
JEFFERSON DAVIS BIRTH

On June 3, 1903, jefferson Davis, a
soldier, statesman and the president
of the Confederate States of Amer
lea, was born at Todd county. Ken
lucky.
His family moved during his in
fancy to Mississippi, with which
state his fame has always been con-
nected. Following his graduation
from West Point in 1928, Davis served
in the army for seven years, resigning
on account of illness.
Davis first came into prominence
as a member of the house of repre-
sentativeS and later as a United
States senator. He left congress at
the outbreak of the Mexican. war to
enlist, and gained considerable fame
as a soldier. When Pierce was elected
president Davis was appointed secre-
tary of war but left the cabinet when
Buchanan became president. i.
At the time Mississippi seeded
from the Union. Davis was serving
in the senate. Shortly after his res
ignation he was elected president of
the Confederate States. After the
fall of Richmond in 1855 he was cap
tured when e~ndeavoring to escape
and was imprisoned in Fort Monroe
for two years. He was released on
bail in 1867 and finally set at liberty
by the general amnesty of 1865.

Answer: The marking of children
during pregnancy by a mothers fear
is not considered scientifically pos
sible. There are a certain per cent
OF birthmarks on children and If
these happen to resemble any par
ticular objects in shape the mother
tries to remember something of whiah
she was afraid during the period she
was carrying the child. But mothers
are no doubt frightened many times
without the child having any marks,
though if the child is marked she. OF
course, recalls these instances.
Health Articles for Distribution
Question: K. w. writes: KINDLY
send me your pamphlet on diabetes
also the orange Juice diet for cleans
ing the system. Will you please send
me a full list of the pamphlets you
have printed for distribution?"
Answer: I have sent you my
articles on diabetes, also the fasting
regimen, as you request. I have pre-
pared articles on most Of the common
disorders and the important diet
problems. If you wish information
on any of these subjects. you may
write and ask for the material on the
disease or diet problem in which you
are interested. Please be sure to
send q two-cent stamp for each
article desired, and enclose a large
self addressed envelope. I cannot
give you a complete list in this
column, and I have several thousand
different articles printed.
Tuberculosis and Smoking
Question: H. B. writes: "A man
48, who has had tuberculosis, and who
is making q nice recovery, has been
told by his doctor that four or five
cigarettes a day are not harmful. I
would like your opinion about it."
Answer: Although I do not advise
smoking for one who has had tuber-
culosis, 1t is possible that four or five
cigarettes a day would not be very
harmful if not inhaled.

Banking and Fire Insurance

One of the most important contributions to the bank
ing structure Of the United States is made by tho stock
fire insurance companies,
At the close Of 1928. these companies held bank stocks
valued at $2l9. o8s,es5, a sum which is Of material value
in financing other industries.
Loans and discounts represent ~. 542 067, 900 Of bank
resources. Much Of this is secured by physical property.
Without the protection offered by fire insurance it would
be impossible to make such loans.
A large percentage Of the banking power Of the ma
ton is represented in the total deposits Of SIS "a, Cos 900.
In this. also. insurance companies play . leading part.
At the end Of 1928 the ~industry's cash deposits in banks
totaled more than $l6oy00oy000.
And finally, 1t is estimated the savings deposits Of en-
ployes Of the insurance companies aggregate $3.50, 10000
all Of which Is functioning as part Of Americas vast
banking power.
Thus it Is found that fire insurance companies are d.
rectly responsible for 49,. 674y 800 of banking resources, In
addition to sums paid out in losses which are often de-
posted in banks until used for rebuilding. Fire insur-
ance is an indispensable factor in the existence, as well as
the progress, Of almost all industries and actually stands
as the basis for industrial and individual credit.

A Good ~Treaty-Ratify It

Great Britain. Japan and the United States, with the
high purpose Of heading off races in naval construction
and OF working toward a lighter burden of armament.
which Is always costly and always a menace because of
the temptation to put fighting material to the use for
which it was designed. agreed at London on a naval con-
struction treaty.
This treaty IS now before the three nations for ratifica-
ton.
holly declaring that this country got the worst of this
deal,
The admirals in Great Britain are hotly declaring that
Great Britain got the worst Of it.
And the admirals in Japan are holly declaring that
Japan got the worst Of 1t.
The picture created when these three varying view
points are assembled Is q picture of a pretty good treaty,
and proves that 1t must be about what it ought to be.
Certainly q great majority Of Americans believe that
1t is. and therefore they expect the United States senate
to ratify it without undue delay.

PEOPLES FORUM :

Editor of The Bismarck Tribune:
Different statements credited to
DR.. John Crawford Of New Rockford,
president of the North Dakota Medi-
cal association, printed in The Trib-
une this week. provoked me to write
this letter with the hope you will sec
fit to give it space in your paper.
DR.. Crawford said that the prohibi-
ton act degrades u young people. I
am of the opinion that liquor has al
ways and always will degrade the
morals of both young and old, hence
the fight for prohibition.
DR.. Crawford said that two.thirds
of the cost Of all crime in the United
States is caused by the violation of
Volstead law. My answer is that the
U. S. has a tremendous crime bill to
pay for the simple reason that So
ciety has fallen down on the job Of
teaching virtue to our youth. The
teaching of temperance Is teachNg
virtue and should have the backing
of all right thinking people and not
be hampered by anybody making IN
warranted statements regarding the
failure of prohibition.
I challenge DR.. Crawford to trot
cut his bootleggers who cast their
votes with the w. G. T. u. and folks
who are church members. He makes
the statement that he knows this is
true from a personal standpoint, so
he must be well acquainted with the
bootlegging element.
II folks are using o liquor to-
day than before prohibition, then
why the fight on prohibition by the
wet element Of our country?
DR.. Crawford said that young peo-
pie didn't drink before prohibition.
That question I am safe In Leaving
with you older e who happen to
read this letter.
He said that today It Is the COM
mon thing and generally accepted
that our high school and college
of fine, clean young people in North
Dakota today give the lie to such a
statement. I have had the privilege
of travelling up and down our state
for the last eight years and I am in
the habit of keeping my eyes and
ears open q good share Of the time.
And I am glad end proud to be able
to say that. with q very few excep-
tons, I hardly see evidence Of Liquor
among our young people.
Give the folks who are trying to
keep liquor away from our young
folks your best help, DR.. Crawford,
and stop to think deep before you
again criticize the prohibition cause.
Yours for q drier America.

ACID FRUITS DO NOT CAUSE
ACInnCHS


The belief of many people tha,
acid fruits aus acidosis is readily
disproven by testing the blood of pa.
tients who are on an exclusive acid
fruit diet. Patients using nothing
but orange juice will show an in
creased alkalinity of blood as long as
they remain on the orange Juice and
IN fact, the more orange Juice they
use at n time the more alkalinity
seems to increase.
Countless experiments have con-
vinced me that there is not the
slightest excuse for believing that
acid fruits have any effect. what
ever, in creating acidosis. The fruit
acids, such as citric acid. malic acid
and tartaric acid are quite different
IN chemical composition from the
acids in the body which produce aci-
dosis. ,
The fruit acids may be considered
natural acids and they are combined
with alkaline forming elements.
When these acids r digested they
are oxidized and nothing remains but
carbon dioxide and water. This re-
leases the mineral elements which
were combined with the acids, and
produces a greater alkalinity of the
blood.
The normal state of the bodily
tissues Is alkaline, and whenever this
protective alkalinity becomes lessened
the body becomes very susceptible to
a variety Of diseases. The body is
never really acid until after death.
but bad eating habits will reduce the
normal alkalinity. I have never
found a superior method for increas-
ing the a~lkalinity. I have never found
a superior method for increasing the
alkalinity Of the blood than to use an
exclusive citrus fruit acid for a time.
When no other food is used. the elm
nation of toxic acids and material
proceeds with great rapidity and, at
the same time, alkaline substances
are added so that the blood regains
its normal alkaline balance.
IT the rash appears on the skin
when using citrus fruits, it is because
Of the poisons coming out through
the skin in such large quantities that
temporarily some of the pores are
blocked. and rash and irritation re-
suit. This will disappear in a short
time and even such skin diseases as
eczema and psoriasis will quickly
vanish. # the fruit diet is persisted
In and nothing is given to retard the
skin elimination by the use of ONT
ments which repress the poisons in
the body. I do not know of any food
which has such a definite. beneficial
result on the body as the citrus fruits,
and in no case can it be said that
they produce acidosis.
The safe rule is to always use the
fruits by themselves, and If you do
this there is no disease where acid
fruits r contraindicated. The aka
Unity Of the blood will always in
crease; the hemoglobin or color of
the blood will increase day by day
toward normal. Thousands of lab
oratory experiments have confirmed
this opinion. Remember, orange juice
every day chases acidosis away.

Real Service Ignored

There's nothing especially new in the fact that the
human race seldom goes out Of its way to reward the
people who have done the most for it.
Now and then, though, something happens to remind
you OF it ~again-something that makes you wonder II we
really know what's good for US.
In London a man named Sir Ronald Ross recently GEL
ebrated his 73d birthday; celebrated it in Ill health, with
out any too much money to make his old age comfort
able and without any great public celebration to mark
the anniversary.
Sir Ronald Ross? No, you very likely never heard of
hin. He isn't widely known. But when future historians
go to write down the names Of the men who, in the last
three or four decades, have served humanity the best
they will put his name somewhere near the head Of the
list.
A number of years ago Sir Ronald was a young officer
IN the medical corps Of the British army in India, stuck
away in a God-forsaken outpost simmering in the trop.
ical heat. Malaria was a curse there; . curse, and ar
unsolved riddle. The young medical officer turned his
attention to it. He had the audacity to doubt that it was
caused by the climate, by the food and drink or by the
weather. Instead. he suspected that it was carried from
the sick to the well by some insect.
He outlined his idea to his superiors and was scoffed
At. Undaunted. he got a cheap microscope and began to
investigate. He put the mosquito down as his chief sus-
pect. and went to work making microscopic examinations
OF the contents Of thousands of mosquitoes stomachs.
This painstakins work in the tropic heat with poor
instruments was terribly hard. It undermined the off,
