Fertile Manchuria

To comprehend the background OF
the current trouble in Manchuria, i.
is necessary first OF all to realize that
agriculture in the Orient is by no
means the depressed and discouraged
industry that 1t is In the United
States.
China and Japan suffer from over
population. Their people often go
hungry, not because of a business de-
preston but because it is hard TO
raise enough food for them on the
land available. And Manchuria is,
potentially, one Of the worlds gar
den spots. Its soil and climate are
much like those of the American mid
die west. It represents fertile gran
ary for hungry millions.
Recognizing that fact, one can more
easily understand why both China
and Japan are trying to get possess
sion of the country. China is always
hungry; Japan is aways looking for
room for her surplus millions. Their
collision was inevitable-and, by the
same token. it will not easily be set
tied.

Stamping Out Arson

Arson, as Fire Marshal 8. l.. LIE.
greid of Illinois recently pointed ou.
is crime whose successful prosecu-
ton requires the support Of strong
and united public sentiment. 1t is
one of the most despicable of all
crimes-and one which affects the
security and pocket-book of every
citizen.
Illinois has made a good record in
combating it through the creation Of
local arson squads. These are head
ed by the fire chiefs, in association
with the heads of the police and pub
lie spirited property owners. The du-
ties of each squad are: Prompt and
thorough investigation of every fire;
securing all possible evidence in sus.
picious fires; cooperating with the
state fire marshal in cases warrant
ing further investigation; building up
a state of public opinion which will
not tolerate arson.
During the last fiscal year 66 con.
Nctions for arson were secured in IL
linois-a record for IL months Pc
riod Two notorious arson rings
which had been profitably operating
for several years. were broken up
Depredations of gang of boys who
had terrorized farms by burning
barns, homes, sheds and stacks c1
hay, were stopped. 1t is said that
the authorities were greatly aided by
Illinois model arson law which DO
vides sliding penalties to fit the in.
dividual case. whereas the old Law
requires the same penalty in every In
stance.
Other states would do well to fol.
low this example. The crime Of arson
must be stamped out.

New York, Oct. 23.-Having heare
for several months that no one has
any money, I'm beginning to wonde,
what sort Of wampum they use in
this mans town.
For the observations of very few
days convince me that, whatever II
Is they are spending, q considerable
number Of people are using it as a
means Of exchange. Perhaps the
checks are now on the rubber stand
ard, but 1t has seemed that most Of
the persons I've encountered weTe

Well, just for instance: have at

night resorts within the past few
weeks. Admitting that, upon an
opening night, the managers give
away certain percentage Of space,
still something like 60 or 70 per cent

And in each instance the crowd
packed the places.

At the Central Park Casino, where
you trade your payroll for an eve

gents yawn slightly when checks that
ranged from 500 up came into their
hands.

The Bible Barred

Out in Washington, where they
seem to have a penchant for stirring
up trouble about educational mat
tiers, battle is raging now about
whether the Bible should be read and
instruction on religious matters CIV
en- in the public schools.
The question was taken to the su-
preme court of the United States
after the state board OF education
had declined to act on petition
asking that instruction in the Bible
be given to Washington school chill
dren. The supreme court of the
state previously had upheld the edu-
cational authorities. The highest
court in the land refused to pass on
the question, ruling that it was not
a federal matter.
The decisions in the case are In
teresting, since they show the diff
ferences in arguments which may be
made by the same side about the
same question on a legal matter.
In the supreme court Of the state
of Washington, the state contended
that the state constitution affirma-
lively forbids religious worship. exer-
else or instruction in the public schoo..
system. The tribunal agreed with
this contention and so ruled.
Before the federal supreme court,
however, the state contended that
the federal constitution makes no
provision to protect citizens in their
religious liberties; that this matter
is left to the state constitution and
laws and that there is no guarantee
in the Declaration of Independence
"of the right of these appellants to
have the Bible read and studied lii
the public schools"
The federal supreme court evi-
IDENTIFY agreed with that, for the de-
cision was in favor Of the state.

And, to all intents and appearances,
they have money to spend. This
spending is done on all the frills and
frivols that big city offers. Not a
dime Of the squandered fortunes
goes to necessity. The spending
figures, believe, are quoted at $780,
600 a week on play and cavorting.
And this Is avery conservative esti-
mate. since the theaters alone are

What the speakeasies get, no one

Where do they get It? Don't ask

Sensitivity to Certain Food Is Likely
to Cause Ailments
Reaction of Individual Is Disclosed by Series Of
SYMPTOMS Now Traceable by Doctors

Whether the skin tests are posi-
! tive or negative, the present technic
involves q careful study Of the diet.
The patient Is asked to keep a food
diary. He carefully records every
thing that he eats, regardless Of the
amount or the time at which it is
eaten, and keeps record Of the symp.
toms and the time when they ap-
pear. He is also asked to keep very
careful record on the back Of his food
diary of the general trend of events
during each day.
A case Is cited in which patient
was a rairoad man whose run would
carry him at intervals to a certain
large city. It developed from the
study of the attacks that they invar-
iably occurred either on the day OF
his visit to the city or on the follow
ing day. It then appeared that he
was fond Of certain brand of cheese
which he invariably bought when he
went to the city in question. This
cheese was the substance to which
he was sensitive and which brought
on his attacks. Other brands of
cheese did not arouse sensitivity.
The next step Is to put the patient
on certain trial diets which are >n-
tied in character, gradually adding
one meat or one cereal at time un-
til the patient develops an attack.
The response Is then checked BY
eliminating this substance and lead
ing up to it again, and not infre-
quently such q system results In re-
vealing the specific substance which
produces sensitivity.
Unquestionably modern knowledge
Of sensitization to proteins is one of
the greatest advances that has been
made in medical science. It has
opened the way to understanding of
numerous conditions which were for
merly not at all understood.

the popular imagination; the national

smith Of the world. He might have
wrought all these marvels and re-
mained apart, solitary in his labora-
tory. His companionable and social

women he has set to work in the in
dustries sprung from his brain is be-

Of our grandfathers and our own he
has transformed the world. He has
added immeasurably to the comfort t.
