 jingle urges that we all enjoy the problematical happiness of royalty because 'the world is full Iof number of things" The United States in truth, sends great many of these things into the world. With the bumper grain crop of 1873, this country achieved the first of consistently favorable trade balances. From initial preponderance of wheat and corn, our export list relies now on raw cotton, machinery, petroluem and iron and steel products. Yet these the obvious articles of foreign trade.
 The Department of Commerce offers lately an intimate glimpse backstage. Its figures reveal the instance the world favored in 1929 United States windmills to the sum of $l 78660i A modern Don Quixote must wait for his foe to cross the water. We sent to foreign shores ,854 false teeth with value of $1,022,575. Shoe for alien horses amounted to $68 726
 From bays and gulfs 42 749 tons of oyster shells went to other lands. These cost the pur chasers $443789. American wheelbarrows had an appeal worth 78368 Ironically, damper climates demanded American soda fountain equipment valued at S618,749. And for cultural gesture we shipped native paintings and statuary which brought $2,- 917 461.
 These commodities in bewldering array offer special attraction the schedule of American exports Add to the list miscellany of fly swat ters, bee keeping equipment toy balloons and bath ing caps! This procession of manufactured articles moves to other lands in 1929 aggregating $3,745,- 4190Oo against $2,302 946,o0O in 1928 In 1929 lchandise exports from the United States exceeded imports by $8478490 900. This excess dipped below the $1 O37 6S9O00 in 1928, but surpassed comfortably the $608 423000 surplus in 1927.
 In the final reckoning, of course, the comple- lmentary items of the balance of trade have their innings Most important in recent years has been increasing foreign investment in American securities Tourist remttances have helped provide balance for our export surplus Our use of foreign freight ton mage is another always prominent factor in bal ance of payments But the shipments of mer- chandise provide the meat of international com merce The scontinued export in the face of increased domestic prices after 1921 and cheap foreign labor is tribute to American industry ir supplying the world what it wants at prices it car pay.

Dr. Frederick H. Baetier of the Johns Hopkins University has been for twenty-five years of the leading Roentgenoogsts ofthe world. He has not however attained this eminence without paying a price for it. For working with Roentgen rays is exceedingly dangerous; they cause all sorts of skin disorders and frequently necessitate the ampu- tation of whole members from the who is exposed to them. So it has been with Dr. Baetjer. He has lost several fingers and an eye, and has had to have numerous skin gratis various parts of his body Now at the age of fifty-fve he is fac ing his fiftieth operation; yet although he has frequently been urged to retire he refuses to do Somehow his devotion to the work to which he has dedicated his life though it threatens to make him a physical wreck, strikes magnificent. Yet it cannot be said that it is unique in the medical profession. Other physicians have forfeited even their lives to do work that they felt be done, and it is one of the chief glores of the medical profession that it attracts of such mette.

Leaders After Scalp
Republican leaders have been
trying for weeks to displace Huston.
Disclosures of the senate lobby COM
mittee concerning HuSton'S activi-
ties in connection with the Tennes-
see River Improvement Association,
which was interested in Muscle
Shoals legislation, created an I'M
favorable reaction among ~party
leaders. ssa
They reported it was difficult to
raise party funds for the congress
sional campaign so long as Huston
retained control and Democrats
were prepared to make what poll
teal capital they could out of the
situation.
However, Huston rejected all hints
from party leaders and insisted he
would retain his post until Presi-
dent Hoover himself requested his
resignation.
FeSS Is Doomed
The President had several party
leaders, including Majority Leader
Watson, Assistant Leader McNary
and Senator Fess at his weekend
Rapidan camp. Fess had been men
toned as possible successor to
Huston.
He denied the Huston affair was
discussed with e President over
the weekend, but Mr.. Hoover, after
arriving back at the White House
Sunday night, summoned Huston
for a long conference.
When the meeting here this week
first was called, there were rumors
Huston intended to announce his
resignation at that time, but when
it was indicated later, he had no
such intention, President Hoover
was represented as deciding to take
a personal hand in the matter.
The conference Sunday night was
regarded as the outgrowth of this
decision.

oNDoN July Doyle creator of Sherlock
Holmes died at his country today the
merely starting his greatest
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1930-07-07


WHEN he created Sherlock
w Holmes in "a Study in Scar
let" he had no idea he was building
a figure destined to go down IN MS
tory. He took as his model one OF
the hospital preceptors, DR.. James
Bell. who often amused his classes
by displaying remarkable powers OF
observation and deduction in rou-
tine cases that came into the hos
pital.
He would point out the charac-
teristics of the patients much in the
manner of a detective and the
young author exaggerated this idea
in his fiction.
Sir Arthur, however, was not as
much interested in detective stories
as in more serious works and prob
ably his finest writings have been
overshadowed by Sherlock Holmes
adventures. His second book was an
historical novel, Micah Clarke"
but he was forced to turn back to
detective adventures to please his
rapidly growing public.
But later he wrote the interesting
novel, 1.-THE White Company" and
another rather melodramatic work,
eThe Firm of Girdlestone."
He also created such characters as
Brigadier Gerard, who was hated
almost as much as the famous de-
tective was loved by readers, and
another character, Sir Nigel Loring,
in THE White Company, who
gained wide approval and showed
the versatility of the author.
Sir Arthur was knighted in 1902.
His first wife was Louise Hawkins
whom he married in 1885. They
had one daughter.
In 1907 he married Jean Leckie
and two sons and a daughter we're
born to them.
