NEW YORK, Dec. Ex-senator
La Toilette OF Wisconsin has pre-
pared and introduced a bill author
izing a federal bond issue of S.
500,000000 or such part thereof as
may be necessary to bring about a
reasonable degree of economic re-
covery.
The bonds would run for ten
years and be retired through an
additional 2 per cent surtax on in
comes.
The money obtained through
their sale would be used to finance
public works. About II per cent
Of it would be expended directly by
the federal government, while 10
per cent would be set aside for loans
to states and the remainder as
loans to municipalities.

Plan Is Practical.

CENATOR LA FOLLETTE'S bill
~ represents no fantastic scheme
of recovery by miracle. It is a
hard-boiled business proposition in
every particular.
Such money as states and
municipalities might borrow not
only would have to be paid back, but
with interest. The work for which
it might be expended would be sub
ject to the approval of a specially
created organization.
The bulk of it would go for such
improvements as are needed and as
would be made within the next dec
ade or so under any circumstances.

Major ReadiuStment

A FTER two years of futile en-
N deavor, it must be clear to
every one that our industrial setup
is in no condition to relieve unem-
ployment.
The problem is not only to find
work for millions of idle men and
women, but, in most cases, new
work.
In other words, we are up against
a major readjustment in our indus
trial life and must find temporary
work for vast numbers of people
until it partially is completed.

EPIDEMIC sore throat usually oc-
IL ours in explosive outbreaks and
is spread chiefly by milk.
It must be differentiated from Ger
tain other types of infection of the
throat by streptococci, which may
occur almost any time because of
the widespread distribution of the
various forms of Strepococci among
people generally.
There is, for instance, in scarla-
tina a sore throat which is due to
invasion of the throat by the strep-
tococci associated with scarlet fever
in cases in which the rash of scarlet
fever does not develop.
There is also type Of sore throat
and tonsillitis which can be shown
to be due to the strepococci, but
which is not epidemic in form.
Any time that the throat is in
vaded by these virulent germs and
the body is unable to throw them
off, there occurs inflammation of
the throat, the tonsils and the neck

SCIENCE
BY DAVID DIETZ

Dr.. Henry Fairfield Osborn
Puts Forth Nea0 Concept
of Evolution, Calling It
"Creationap' and Biome-
chanicdl.
DURING the last few years DR..
II Henry Fairfield Osborn, presi-
dent of the American Museum of
Natural History, has raised a Sc
ries of storms in the biological world.
DR.. Osborn caused the first storm
when he insisted that evolutionists
had not assigned a sufficiently old
age to mankind.
He expressed the opinion that
preSent-day man was preceded by
dawn man." who was several mil
lion years old.
Next, DR.. Osborn came forward
with the claim that the Piltdown
man was older than the Java ape
man.
The Piltdown man, as scientists
have named the fragments of skull
and other bones found at Piltdown,
England. has been considered
very early type of man, and the Java
relics, found at Thrill, Java, have
been considered a sort Of missing
link" very much older than the
Piltdown man.
But DR.. Osborn, basing his be-
lief on the evidence of elephant
teeth found in association with these
other fossils, says that the order
must be reversed.
Now, DR.. Osborn comes forward
with what he calls "a new concept
of evolution" This is based very
largely on studies of the elephant
and his ancestors, the so-cslled
proboScideanS.

Safe for DEMOCRACY

In celebrating the birthday anniversary of Wood
row Wilson, orators again recall the spiritual en-
thusiasm which gave answering echo that a
great war was being fought TO make the world

Out at the Columbia Conserve Company there is not
war; but great peaceful, earnest effort to make
democracy safe by making industry democratic in
its operation.
The workers run the plant They own it. There are
no BOSSES Their jobs are safe. They get pay

fears of doctors bills layofs The ideal of equal
ity is put into action.

Daily Thought

NO servant can serve two mas
tiers; for either he will hate the
one, and love the other; or else he
will hold to the one, and despise
the other. Ye can not serve God
and mammOn.-Luke 1913.
Ever keep thy promise, cost what
it may; this is to be true as steel.

not consider this skill qualification for tariff COM
missioner.
Bringing back Of banished beer also is a praise
worthy project. But Hoover objects to such
assaults the noble experiment, and therefore can
not consider this qualification for tariff commits
sioner.
So Mr.. Ornburn's devotion to Grundyism must be
in the Presidents eyes, his qualification for tariff
commissioner. Of course Senators Bingham and Wal
cott Representative Tson and other high protection
lists of Connecticut agree.
But perhaps the senate when it comes to pass upon
Mr.. Ornburns nomination, will measure him by other
standards.
The tariff commission was created as a scientific
and judicial body. It's decisions affect consumers to
the tune Of millions Of dollars year 1t has power
to aid or retard foreign trade enrich or impoverish
the people.
Doubtless Mr. Ornburn is an estimable citizen, but
nothing in his public record fits him to serve as SCI
entifc expert on the tariff commission
