A Scandal in New York
(JameStOWn Sun)

0uUJ *
The attorney general OF the state Of New York. look
ing into political affairs in New York City, seems to
be on the verge Of unc0vering enough facts to provide
the countrys newspapers with some highly sensationally
reading. Already witnesses have told him that five New
York judges bought" their appointments. by paying
money to political leaders. A Tammany district chief
tain Is under indictment and there seems generally to
be blood on the moon.
All Of this Is rather shocking. but there is no rea-
son why 1t should be particularly surprising. When any
large city hands its government over to one political
organization, and lets that organization have control, for
an extended period Of time, things like this are bound
to happen. Political organizations are not in business for
their health" Every member Is actuated by self interest.
In New York Tannnany Hall has been supreme for q
long time. Tammany has, Of course. an evil reputation,
but in point Of fact it Is little worse than the average
big, city political ring. It has simply had undisputed
power too long.
The same sort Of thing has happened elsewhere. Phila-
delphia politics has some lark corners that equal any
thing Tammany can show. Chicago has had an ILL
smelling political mess for years. Detroit right now is
engaged in all attempt to recall its mayor. New York
has no monopoly on civic graft and misrule.
Indeed. that is the point Of the whole business. The
New York situation Is simply an object lesson for all Of
US. an illustration of what happens when the tendencies
which are present in every city are allowed to proceed
to their logical conclusion.
When voters become Indifferent and permit one polt-
ical group to run their city without any effective check,
they need not be surprised If an ugly situation develops.
Eternal vigilance-on the part Of the individual voter
Is the price. not only Of liberty. but of decent govern
ment. When the voter Indicates his right to run his
own government trouble is bound to come.

Baseball Is Still Flourishine

Every year or so some calamity bowler arises to re-
mark that big league baseball is dead, or at least dying.
And every year, regular as %ockwork something comes
up to prove that there is a great. deal of life in the old
game yet. * r.
The latest bit of evidence in rehuttal Of the calamity
bowler is contained in the recent attendance figures at
Wrigley Field, Chicago. When the Cubs finished their
series with the Dodgers and the Giants they had set a
new attendance record for baseball. The good old days
at their liveliest could not match the enormous outpour-
ing of fans that visited Wrigley Field this summer. =
Baseball, obviously, is a long way from death or the
danger of death. AS long as it can continue to produce
thrills and hot competition it will remain what IT has
been called-the great American game.

Homely Virtues Best

Messrs. Dieudonne Coste and Maurice Bellonte fly
nonchalantly from Paris to New York in the first air
plane ever to succeed in the attempt, and now plan to
complete a trip to Dallas, Texas, to collect a $4,000 prize
offered by Col. william Easterwood, Dallas millionaire,
for the first one-stop flight from Paris to the Texas
city.
The records show nearly a score of persons have per-
ished in an effort to fly westward across, the Atlantic.
They have disappeared, for the most part, without trace.
In one case a radio distress call was heard and would
be rescuers hurried to the scene. All they found was
the eternally restless roll of the oceans water and a
deep which gave up no secrets.
In view of this fact, therefore, the achievement Of the
French airmen was noteworthy. It required courage and
careful preparation. The reward which they will receive
is none too large in view of the risks taken.
And yet, one wonders about the value Of it all. En-
durance flights and tests of various kinds have proved
the reliability of the airplane under certain conditions.
The Atlantic ocean has been crossed before in each d-
rection.
Costa and Bellonte will find the trip profitable.
Twenty-Five thousand dollars is a lot of money in North
Dakota or anywhere else in the United States. It is
more than a lot in France to which Messrs. Coste and
Bellonte will return to receive the honorA which that
mercuric nation heaps upon its heroes. +
But what about the rank and file of common folk who
work hard for a living? Aren't they about fed up on
these quick and easy ways of gaining fame and fortune?
We respect the French airmen, of course, and they
are welcome, but our respect is greater and our welcome
is warmer for the ordinary citizen who plugs along, in
good times and bad, looking out for his family and per-
forming his duties as an honest citizen. Such folks can
not be singled out ard named because there are so many
of them, but any one Of them is worth fully as much to
the world and fully as deserving of distinction as those
who seek by one bold stroke to gain affluence and fame.
The flight of Coste and Bellonte may have some value
from a scientific standpoint, just as other flights of a
similar nature are said to have had. But we have more
than q faint bunch that the public, both here and
abroad, rapidly is firing of them.
Gingerbread is no substitute for meat and potatoes
and, after all, it is the homely virtues rather than the
spectacular ones which are most worthwhile. We can
not help but think of that every time someone makes
a spectacular leap into the spotlight.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Appendicitis Operation

Question: Mrs. K. writes: II re-
Gently had an operation for appen-
dicitis and prolapsus Of the internal
organs, but don't seem to gain
strength as I should. Also, have q
constant fear that some one Is going
to harm me, although I really don't
believe I have a real enemy. For
hours at night I lie awake, almost
afraid to turn in bed, and sometimes I
walk all night from room to room,
looking out first one door and then
another, watching for something, I
mt know what. I am miserable.
N you help me?"
Answer: Your organs are probably
prolapsed as badly as before and you
have all the neurotic symptoms which
go with q pressure Of the prolapsed
organs upon the uterus and ovaries.
You certainly could be helped with
the right treatment, but such treat
ment cannot be given through the
columns OF q newspaper. You need
manipulative treatment Of the abdo-
men, and exercising Of the abdominal
muscles to make these muscles strong
so that they will hold the abdominal
organs in place.
Are ,Proteins Necessary
Question: H. g. asks: Can one
build q strong, healthy body on an
exclusive diet Of fruit ana vegetables?
Whtch fruits and vegetables, II any,
are fattening?" : 81
Answer: It is necessary to use
some protein in the diet besides the
fruits and vegetables. The only fruits
which are considered fattening are
bananas. olives and avocados. Vege-
tables which are often called fatten-
ing are potatoes and Hubbard squash,
but the cereals are the most "fatten-
ing" foods.
Twitching Of Face
Question: Miss A. B. asks: would
nervousness cause q twitching Of the
face? At times I cannot control the
muscles of my face. I am 20 years
old"
Answer: You need q diagnosis
to determine the cause Of your nerv-

any case which could not be cured by
the methods used in the ordinary
form of headache.
For permanent relief, it Is a good
plan for the patient to go on q fasting
regimen, using one eight-ounce glass
Of grapefruit Juice, tomato juice, or
orange juice every two hours. During
the fast one enema should be taken
daily. These measures will assist in
eliminating the toxins which are
largely responsible for the headaches.
After the fast the patient should use
q diet which assures plenty Of both
cooked and raw vegetables. No alco-
holic stimulants should be used, as
beverages containing them only in
tensify the nervous, high strung tenn
permanent already present with most
migraine patients.
The patient should cultivate q calm,
quiet and peaceful frame Of mind:
plenty of sleep is essential.
For temporary relief at the begin
ming Of an attack, give copious warm
enema3. putting the feet in q tub of
hot water, with hot congresses to the
forehead and cold congresses to the
back of the neck, will usually make
the patient feel better.

The migraine headache, which oc-
ours at regular intervals, is probably
the most common of all headaches.
Some Of the popular names for it are:
Sick headache, blind headache, bilious
headache and migraine headache.
The patient can usually tell when a
sick headache is coming on. The
face is pale, the patient chilly, de-
pressed, and there is some disturb
ance of the vision so that it is blurred,
or else flashes of light race over the
field of vision. Dizziness and nausea
are common. AS the headache begins,
the face flushes on the side OF the
head that is affected, and perspira-
ton may break out, either general in
nature, or on one side only.
The most distressing feature OF the
headache is q painful ache which Is
usually one-sided. It begins in a
small spot often over one eye, the
pain at first being dull and later OF
sharp boring character. 1t spreads
over the forehead, and on the side OF
the head. The pain Is so acute that
the patient feels that he can hardly
stand it. Any sudden light or noise
makes the pain more intense. The
pain usually reaches its height about
noon, and has subsidized by night.
The patient commonly feels quite
well between the attacks. ANY ex-
element, tense nervous condition,
constipation, indigestion, loss of sleep,
or continued mental concentration,
will make the attacks worse.
Migraine commonly occurs with
women nor often than with men, al
though it frequently occurs among
men who do much mental work or
study.
Inasmuch as migraine IS a form OF
headache which makes habitual visits
on certain definite times, there is
much reason to believe that it may
be brought on by certain expectant
states of mind.
Migraine headaches are often con-

Deadly Just the Same

In q recent news bulletin the Bureau Of Industrial Re,
search, with headquarters in New York City, sent out a
notice which answers, in part, the old question Of whats
in . nane?"
II one is looking for . cryptic answer to the stock
question, the answer Is "quite q bit" especially II one is
speaking Of wood alcohol.
Wood alcohol has been outlawed from industrial use
since 1906 because Of the danger to workers handling and
breathing 1t. It Is q poison and is almost as injurious
when drawn into the lungs in sufficient quantity as
when drunk as . liquid. +
But recently, under the name Of "methanol," which is
scientifically correct but sounds innocuous, some 15yOO0,-
600 gallons Of the product have been marketed and it
now is being used in some of the same industries which
caused its Punishment a. years ago. Chief among these
are the hat and paint industries.
The law which relegated wood alcohol to the indus
trial limbo from which 1t has now emerged was one per-
mitting the use Of tax-free denatured alcohol. When
the new alcohol became available. manufacturers dis
continued use Of the old.
And not all Of the wood alcohol is finding its way into
t. channels Of industry. New York recently had. an
epidemic Of deaths from alcohol poisoning among those
whose appetites proved stronger than their common
sense. The result was 81 persons in the morgue.
The answer to why wood alcohol should reappear now

Civic leaders Of the Twin Cities have started an Eat

sumption Ct bread and wheat flour will materially help
to remove the wheat surplus of the United States and
thus be Of direct benefit to farmers. It was pointed out
in this bulletin q few weeks ago that the increase Of our
wheat consumption back to the pre-war basis would take
care Of the wheat production Of the present. Wheat
flour consumption in the United States has fallen off
about 25% since the war and our wheat exports now are
