TEN. 1t is in reality a sheep in
struction train. Experts in sheep
hunbandry will be aboard the
train to present all phases of the
sheep4raising industry, with spe-
cial attention to flock manage
ment under actual farming condi-
tons. A special lecture coach will
be known as the ''sheep school,.
A special demonstration car will
show right and wrong methods of
sheep handling, as well as cor
rect types of buildings, equip
ment, racks, troughs. etc. Here is
a chance for the young Canadian
farm goods to receive a free
Eve course this winter. We
would suggest that they pick an
experienced Wall Street man to
instruct in the art of shearing.
Most of us nowadays are hope

The greatest a%ssemblage of jew
els in the world Is housed in a
huge steel Golfer in the State
Bank of Russia, under Soviet
guard. The gems date from tho
time of Catherine the Great to
Car Nicholas. They represent a
value of 1854, 000. 900 and consti-
tute a part of the Russion gold
reserve. Upon proper credentials
visitors are allowed, under guard,
to gaze at the magnificent dis
play of diamonds, rubies, pearls
and emeralds. And in the Red
Square, where all may see, lies
the embalmed body of Lenin in
open casket. Thus does the
past enchain the present in Red
Russia-with the present grievous
and the future nebulous.
The brightest star among sta
of 1929 is the record of
but ten lynchings in the United
States. There have been many
years when there were seven or
eight times that many and there
have been years when a single
southern state furnished a total
as great as that of the U. s. for
he past year. Out Of thirty-three
attempts where mobs tried to
AXE prisoners from officers with
Temp : stretching determination,
.wenty-seven failed. Evidently
,heriffs are more mindful of their
iuties in this regard than they
lave been in past years. Anyway,
he lynching record is c~reditable.

AS a result of widespread famine
most the revolving practices of

Dapper Jimmy Walker, Beau
Brummel of the world, and Incl
dentally Mayor of New York with
a $500 salary, has cleverly an
nexed to his organization 10000
new recruits in the persons of
that number of taxi-cab drivers
who will come under police con
troll on the 18th of February.
They are to rel a prescribed
cap and uniform subject to daily
inspection for neatness.
Kinds of cabs and their equip
ment are especially prescribed in
the new city law. Mayor Walker
suggests that the paved streets
and thorofares should bring a rev.
enue of ten million dollars to the
city from taxi-business, but he
doesn't suggest any method to
prevent the taxicab barons from
passing that tax on to the bedev-
led patrons already pretty thor

New York's City Comptroller

Woman has taken another
stride forward In the legal arena.
Madame Gamma Walska, wife Of
Harold Mccormick, Chicago multi
millionaire, maintains a separate
and distinct residence in Paris.
Once or twice in a while she cas-
ually pays a visit to her husband
in Chicago. On a recent commut-
er's trip across the Atlantic to
visit her husband, the fair Gamma
brought along some $2,0O0,000
worth of doodads and buds sched-
uled as personal effects. Uncle
Sam demanded customs duties.
Payment of a large sum was
made-under protest, and litiga-
ton ensued. The United States
Customs Court at New York has
lust held that Madame Walska
McCormick's legal residence is in
Paris and that the legal status
of a married woman has changed
so greatly in recent years that
she stands on an equality with
her husband, and can while still
married, maintain her own separ-
ate domicile. Being a legal resi-
dent of Paris, her two million
dollars worth Of personal baggage
was not dutiable on a simple lit
tie visit to her husband. Such Is
the advantage of living a la carte.
Mammoth modern merchandise
ing methods are under the spot
light in recent revelations regard
ing the profits-or losses rather
of the gigantic United Cigar
Stores company of America. A
change in control of this leviathaa
of the tobacco world and a revis-
ion of it's accountancy produced
these startling results. The claim
ed profit and loss surplus as OF
December 31st, 1928, OF S21,219,-
523 dwindled to a profit and loss
deficit of S776,286 as of June 80,
1928 shrinkage of over s21,-
900, 900. The most astounding rev.
elatfon came with the report of
sales of over $40, 1000, 900 resulting
in a loss in store operations of
81, 14S, 1927 And the most recent
audit indicates a loss from store
operations of s590,437 for four
months ending October 81, 1929,
or at the rate of over S1,7O0, 900
a year. Dividends on preferred
stock have been discontinued. Ev-
identity there were some weak
links in this mighty tobacco
"chain" and one Of the weakest
proved the reduced prices Of CT
garettes.

He Must Be Clever

MUCH as I admire Mr.. Diamonds
1V1 nerve and originality, find it
impossible to give him all the credit
for the news value which attaches
to his comingS and goings. Weigh
ing the situation from the stand
point of an absolutely impartial OBJ
server, it occurs to me that he has
enjoyed deal of advertising at the
hands of our law enforcement Of
ficials.
They have arrested him some
twenty times in the last fifteen
years, without securing one con-
viction; have accused him of every
thing from petty theft to murder,
without being able to get more than
stories and headlines which
ultimately redounded to his glory.
Considering the numerous and
colorful crimes with which he has
been charged and his invariable
ability to Squirm out of them, Mr..
Diamond must be an exceptionally
clever man, or our law enforcement
officials have been exceptionally
dumb.
Since pride, tradition, and loyalty
preclude the idea of rating our lazy
enforcement officials SO low, it fol-
lows quite naturally that Mr..
Diamond gets the benefit Of the
doubt, and not only Mr.. Diamond,
but all his kind.

vessel and the application of
pressure causes discontinuance of
the bleeding.
Such henorrhages as result from
nose bleed, hemorrhoids, cuts of the
skin, the generative organs OF
women, and obstetrical conditions
usually are easily comfortable.
There are on the other hand
hemorrhages resulting from changes
in the blood, from infestation with
intestinal worms, from rupture of
dilated blood vessels, and similar
conditions which may be uncon-
trollable by any easy method.
HemorrhageS from the nose may
be stopped by packing the nose with
gauze, which exerts pressure at the
spot of homorrhage. There are
certain steps which should in
variably be taken in the case Of
difficult hemorrhages.
This includes absolute rest in bed,
elevation of the foot of the bed,
and keeping the patient warm by
the use of hot water bottles, electric
pad, or plenty of blankets.
A severe hemorrhage usually is
associated with symptoms of fear,
and this must be controlled by
quieting the patient through psy-
cho logic measure or by the giving
OF SedatiVe drugs.

Plain Stupidity

TXTE are, it appears, producing a
w new breed of heroes to take
the place of that once represented
by the James boys, the Renos, Dali
tons, Forrels and Lafittes, and, as
generally had happened in the past,
stupid laws and stupid officials are
contributing their full share to the
program.
If this same Jack Oegs) Diamond
had been living in New York 235
years ago, he probably would have
been one of those pirates whom
Captain Kidd was sent out to catch,
but who enjoyed a lot of favor and
some protection because of the silks,
jewels and spices they made avail
able for the richer folks in spite of
English law.
If he had been living in Boston
100 years ago, he might have rivaled
such a redoubtahle forefather as old
John Hancock in the smuggling
business.
If he had been raised in any of
our great seaports 100 years ago, he
undoubtedly would have found
ample vent for his daredevil spirit
in the slave trade.
Whether fortunately or not, Mr.
Diamond was born to grapple with
not the first, but the latest noble
experiment" humanity has made
in its quest of purity through law,
but he has reacted to the challenge
no differently from men of his
stripe on previous occasions and
plain people are reacting no differ
emily to his performance.

DAILY HEALTH SERVICE

There is evidence that the bone
marrow is concerned in the forma-
ton of cells and there also is evi-
dence that the spleen, the liver and
the wall of the stomach are con-
cerned in giving proper stimulus in
the entire biologic process.
Since the mechanism of cell for
nation is so complicated it is not
properly understood. More has been
learned in the last ten years than in
the previous ten centuries, but even
now thousands Of research workers
in laboratories all over the world are
concerning themselves with the de-
tails of this intricate process.
The details are vitality important,
since a proper number of red blood
cells and a proper amount of red
coloring matter is absolutely essen
tial to health and indeed to life it

If a person has severe hemor-
rhage or extensive beeding at any
point in the body, the first step to
be taken is to control the hemor-

It might be impossible to reach
the blood vessel because of its de-
post in the tissue; in such a case,
ligature or tourniquet is placed

Politics and Arithmetic

The administration is putting out misleading fig
ures on the condition of federal finances in an effort
to show surplus and influence voters in the Noye-
Der elections, according to Representative Byrns of
Tennessee, ranking Democrat on the house appro-
priatons committee.
This is no new charge from the Democrats It is
made after every session of congress and before every
national election And of course, Byrns is actuated
by the same political motives that he attributed to
Mellon.
Mellon digniied Byrns attack with denial ex-
planning that retirement of the public debt during
the first quarter of the fiscal year was dictated by
the price of government securities on the market
Nevertheless, the fact remains, as Byrns pointed
out, that last year $237000O0O was put into the sink
ing fund, while during the corresponding period of
this year only $65,OOoOOO of the public debt was re-
tired. Had debt retirement proceeded at the same
rate. there would have been deficit
1t is true as well that government expenses during
the first quarter were above those of last year.
Byrns doubted the Presidents ability to reduce ex-
penditureS during the year by $68OOoO0O below orig
inal estimates. He called this paper saving" and
predicted its absorption during the year. With ap-
preparations admittedly much greater than last year.
this seems reasonable forecast.
If Byrns' charges of figure Juggling are correct
his criticisms well justified Naturally the treas
ury wishes to make things look as rosy as possible
But nothing is to be gained from blinking at facts
and concealing the true situation from taxpayers.

Circnmstantial Evidence

The cero-Gallo murder trial in Boston has given
further evidence of the great fallibty Of our GRIM
inal court system.
Ciangi Zero was arrested June H. 1927, for the
murder of Joseph Fantasia Indicted four days later
he was tried in the fall and convicted of rst-degree
murder The jury found against him on the strength
of one witness who testified he was seen running
awav from the scene of the shooting. No motive
developed at the trial.
Sentenced to death year later, after denial OF
motion for a new trial. Cero from his deathhouse
cell on Nov. 8. 1925 preparations completed IN
the death chamber for his electrocution. Late that
afternoon young Italian woman, Philomena Romano.
appeared before Governor Fuller, and said she was
walking with Fantasia when he was shot.
She testified that Samuel Gallo. and not Cero,
shot Fantasia. 1t developed that Gallo and Fan
tasia had argued over the Romano woman, also that
Zero was walking with Gallo when the shooting
occurred.
Cero was given a respite and Gallo was tried the
following February and found guilty of the same muir
der for which Cero had been Sentenced to death Only
one shot was fired in the murder. The same judge
sat on both cases and the same assistant district
attorney prosecuted The judge later granted motions
for new trials to both men.
Three weeks ago Cero and Gallo were placed on
trial Jointly before different judge and with a
different assistant district attorney prosecuting IL
was argued that Cero fired the fatal shot at the NJ
stgation of Gallo. Though the Romano woman could
not be located to take the stand, her testimony at
the Gallo trial was admitted. The jury found Galio
guilty and Cero not guilty.
Cero was freed and Gallo's counsel Will appeal 10
the supreme court on constitutional grounds
There is little wonder that the officials of the
Boston Bar Association sat in at the joint trial in
a profoundly disturbed state of mind Nor is there
wonder that Bostonians concerned with the Sacco-
vanzetti and Mooney Billings cases took an active
interest. While no question OF radicalism was in
voyed the issue of crcumstantial evidence was pres
ent in all its patent uncertainty.

BATTLE OF HASTINGS

ON Oct. IA, 1866, the conquest of

gun when the Normans, under VIII
liam, duke of Normandy, defeated
the English, under King Harold, at
the Battle of Hastings.
Duke William claimed thaU Har-
old had agreed to support his claim
to the English crown on the death
of Edward the Confessor, and, when
this was not done, William began
preparations to wreSt the crown
from Harold by force.
Harold just had conquered his
brother and rival, Tostig, at STAN
ford Bridge, and when he heard
that the Normans were ravaging the
south, he Immediately fastened in
that direction.
The Norman army was divided
into three parts, the center being
led by Duke William in person.
Shortly after the battle began, the
invaders fled and the English, fall
ing into trap. foolishly pursued.
The Norman center repulSed the
English and easily won the battle.
William met little vigorous oppo-
sition thereafter in his conquest Of
England. He ultimately was crowned
king Of England in Westminster
Abbey.
Possessed Of remarkable ability,
william ruled strictly, kept excellent
order. and won success by his own
initiative.
