Increasing Caution.
You are compelled to devote great
deal of study to certain questions"
"A great deal" agreed Senator
Sorghum.
you must consider popular senti-
ment as well as the principle involved y
"Of course"
and is that why you are so slow
in making up your mind?"
Partly why. But the main reason
for elaboration is that the longer you
study any subject in which your public
is informing itself. the more cautious
you become about going on record with
vote"
Jud TunkinS gays that only a few
years ago, in the good old times out
home, all a man needed in order to
qualify as a first-rate politician was to
be a good hand-shaker.

committees were at work even then
but they never turned up such embar-
RAISING things about the National
Committee as they have in the last
year or two.
Naturally there Is going to be a lot
of conversation about the future of the
Republican National Committee. 1t had
been expected that Senator Fess, who
merely took over the job of being chair
man as an accommodation at q time
when some one was needed to keep the
boat from rocking, would step out after
the first Of the year and the attacks on
him for declaring that the G.. o. p
ment had died away. But the thing
doesn't look so simple now. One report
was spread recently that Ray Benja-
min of California, the Presidents own
State, was coming hire to take charge.
But this has been denied. 1t doubtless
would be relief to lot of Republic
cans if just sound business man like
the present treasurer, Joseph r. Mutt
OF Cleveland, could be persuaded to
fought shy of the job in the past, how
ever.
Although Congress has put through
the relief bills before going away for
a two weeks Christmas holiday, 1t
hasn't done so well with the regular
appropriation bills and with the pro-
gram which Senator Norris and some
of the other progressives have set
down as sine qua non II there is to
be no special session of the new Con-
gress in the Spring. The first OF these
appropriation bills to pass both houses,
the Treasury and Post Office bill, has
been sent back to conference by the
Senate. The Interior bill ran into op-
position that looked like O fIibuster
when It was called w IN the Senate.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1930-12-22

The President took a wallop at the
Senate when it's criticism of his relief
program was at its height. Mr. Hoover
said that some members of Congress
were playing politics at the expense
of human misery. In Washington the
immediate reaction to this remark was
Senate at fever heat. But out in
the sticks-back beyond the confines of
the National Capital and across the
Ohio, the Mississippi and other rivers
the reaction was decidedly different.
That is one reason that the Presidents
relief program has been disposed of at
last, after so much attack in the last
three weeks.

 Pituitary Gland Described
 "The pituitary gland is located in the head just between the temples and back of the root of the nose. It is really two glands. The front part of it influences the growth and pro per development of the bones, the voluntary muscles and the sexual ap- paratus.
 "The failure of this part 10 func- ton properly during youth leads to a lack of height and to a poorly de- veloped muscular system. If it func- tions overactively, an overgrown person results.
 ''The back part of the pituitary or the posterior lobe, has to do with the handling of starch. sugar and water in the body. If it fails to dc it's work in the right way the person so afflicted takes on fat.
 "The thyroid is located in the neck. Goiter is an enlargement of the thy roid.
 This toxic thyroidism is the adult causes dry skin, dry and brittle hair lac kof pep and endurance, a slow ing down of mental processes and physical performance.
 Parathyroids In Neck
 "The parathyroids, four in num- Der, are about the size of grain Of wheat and are located in the neck just below and behind the thyroid
 The adrenals are two in number and, like the pituitary. each is really two glands. The medulla or inner part is believed to be inactive during ordinary life, but when some emcr- gency arises. the adrena medulla sends an extra amount of it's secre- ton into the blood. This causes a encouragement of our fighting forces so that we are better able to over come our enemies.
 ''The vortex is the part of the gland that is being experimented with in connection with cancer.
 Disturbances of certain other glands leads to a great deal of ab- scnteeism among women employees.
 "The greatest usefulness of this service at first probably will be with these disturbances in women."

 Stockholders voted on the deal last night and according 10 L. A. Manchester, general counsel of Sheet & Tube, they cast S70,o0O votes for the merger, including the disputed 51,03S. Approval of the deal required approximately 7o1,O0O votes.
 Judge Turnbaughs' ruling was on a block of stock owned by Otis S; Co. of Cleveland one of the Cyrus s. Eaton concerns. Proxies on the the former owners, to the pro-mer- ger committee.
 If the 51,03S votes are enough to swing the merger either way, Judge Turnbaugh's decision will result in delaying the merger for several days while litigation is carried through higher courts, it was said. Litigation on other protested shares is also an- ticipated. with delay as a result.
 Final Tally By Friday
 Indications were that the com- plete vote will not be talled until late Thursday or early Friday. Counting of the proxies was discon- finued early today to give tabulators and attorneys an opportunity to rest.
 The deal must be closed by April 30 according to agreement by Sheet 6 Tube directors which was read at the stockholders meeting last nig,rr. Therefore, controversy must be cnd- cd by that time.
