The Right Track

Community clubs in other parts of the
city should join the movement started on the
south side for lower rates for public utilities.
While sincere and insincere groups are
advocating lower wages for public employees
especially teachers and policemen, the south
side citizens have hit at the real source of
private depression"
The cost of utility service in this city is
beyond reason, can be proved to be greater
than that allowed by law, and is extortionate
under the rules of valuation established to
protect utility robberies in prosperous days.
These utilities, given monopoly under
the law, really tax the people, They serve
necessities of life. No one may escape tribute
and live.
Very carefully, during the days after the
close of the war, the utilities established as
a legal principle that they had the right to
charge on a valuation based on the cost OF
reproduction Of their plants, and not upon
the original cost.
The utilities wanted this rule because
they then proceeded to collect on all the in
creased prices of labor and commodities that
came after the war.
They wanted to collect earnings on
money never invested or spent
Now things are different. The price of
labor has dropped to the disappearing point
The price of the materials that go into tele-
phone and electric and water plants have
gone into the cellar.
The south side citizens believe that the
time has come for a new valuation of these
plants for rate purposes and that the rule of
valuation that applied in days of initiation
should be used in days of defation.
Outside of this simple and just demand
it can be shown that some of the utilities
through their holding companies are practic-
ing robberies and extortions from which a
Jesse James would turn away in disgust.
The operation of the plants by holding
companies has been costly. 1t has been po-
litical The robberies and extortions have
been protected. The people have paid.
There should be city-wide instead of
sectional crusade for justice.
Before we cut down the wages of police
men and teachers, needed now more than
ever before, we should cut out the larcenies
of the utility barons who pacify with gifts
of pipe organs.

The Sweating Male

There is no doubt that one of the most convincing
proofs of the stupidity of the human race in the face
of convention is the persistence of the male in wearing
coats during warm days in the summer.
No American male who puffs along the street with
the ennerature at 80 and the humidity at TO- wearing
the same coat which adorns his manly shoulders on
washingtons birthday appropriately can scof at the
Chinese woman who binds her feet.
Despairing of any hope that the perspiring males
will help themselves Mrs Madge Blair Barnwel has
launched a movement to save the American males
before they become extinct intolerable result
of the fatal effects of the coat in hot weather.
She sets forth her convictions in an article in the
Clothing Trade Journal Some of the main points in
her pitying indictment are the following:
Men are fools! Can you deny it? Men take the
wool from the sleeps back, cover their sensitive
bodies, from neck to heels. in wool in hot weather.
Men act as if they religious fealty to the
coat-this uncomfortable armor, designed about 1856
years ago by the grandson of boarding -housekeeper
Beau Brummell Wool merchants and tailors found it

Relief Through Public Works

1t has been heralded widely through state and
nation that we are meeting the unemployment stua-
ton through a greatly extended system of public
works. We imagine that all sorts of public and semi
public structures and improvements being rushed
as at no time since the World war.
rude blow is struck at this benign illusion by
Laurence Todd in Labor's News. Citing the totals
given in the F. W. Dodge Corporations estimates for
the first five months of 1881 compared with the
first five months of $780, he shows that the amount
spent on public works from January to June, 1881, is
some $235 100000 below the figure for the comparable
period in $780, And much less spent for public
works in 1880 than in 1929.
In short all this talk about vast increase of public
works construction in the country is much bunk.
We are doing less building in this field than in times
of prosperity and slight unemployment.
An excellent appraisal of this deception and hypo-
crisy is contained in the August issue of The Con-
structor the trade magazine of the Associated General
Contractors:
THE failure of municipalities to undertake street
and alley paving work under the exceptionally favor
able conditions prevailing this year is nufying the
efforts of the federal government to increase employ
ment through accelerating highway work.
present indications that the totals for concrete
street. alley and highway paving will not exceed those
of last year despite the increase in federal aid appro
priations to $125O00OO and the $0OOOOOoo emergency

Women NIGHT Workers

The Presidents emergency committee for employ
ment finds the action of the cotton textile institute
in dismssirfg women from night jobs decidedly COM
mendabe.
The National Woman's party finds it a selfish at
tempt on the part of the cotton industry to save
itself at the expense of women workers, since the
women are reported being dismissed not only from
night work, but from all work.
A fair judgment probably lies somewhere between
these two opinions.
1t is decidedly regrettabe that women must work
at night, or that any must work at night for
that matter.
Also it is regrettable that mother with home and
family to care for in the day time should have to
work at night, while her children are asleep so all
may eat.
And it even is regrettable that such a mother
should be left without job of any sort day night
and without anything to eat.
Until that happy time arrives when industry SC
is organized that neither woman need sacri.
flee health and life doing night work. it seems to us
the only humane and just way is to retain those
workers, men women, whose earnings are essential
to the support of family.

Alfred Pearce Dennis

One of the ironies of federal government is that
citizens judge it by the Office holders who make the
most noise, but sometimes have the least influence
Dozens OF officials in the Washington spotlight
congressman, senators, cabinet ofcers-were better
known than DR.. Alfred P. Dennis, who died Saturday
AS member of the United States tariff commits
sion for the last seven years. he was one of those
brilliant and devoted experts in government whose
services are so little understood and appreciated bv
the country.
1t is no exaggeration to say that the federal gov
ernment virtually would break down if it were de-
pendent on the politicians chosen by voters or partz
posses to head important commissions, bureaus and
departments. The brain work usually is done bv
the non-political experts who prompt the Office
holders out in front
An economist and historian, Dr. Dennis first
achieved recognition teacher and writer in the
academic world Later he became pioneer govern
mental trade expert abroad-as trade commissioners
to Italy in 1913 and commercial attache to Great
Britain in 1921.
He was one of the first to preach the dependence
OF the United States on foreign trade His selection
as vce-chairman of the tariff commission in 1925
was on merit In the line of Costgan Culbertson
and Lewis he carried the fight against suicidal
high protective rates which helped destroy American
prosperity and helped provoke the world economic war
When President Hoover comes to fill the three
tariff commission vacancies it is to be hoped that

would flush crimson and perspiration stream Their
music would lose its spontaneity and brilliance
Their arms now were bound by the seams in the

would exclaim Why it would not be decent to re-
ceiye the ladies without aur coats ny stepfather

With incredible speed, Post and Gatty flew around
the globe-then put their coats in the hot weather
which greeted them their return Their attractive
wives were dressed tasteuy and appropriately for the
needs of the day, but did the masters of gigantic
herculean, heroic feat have the courage to dress
senslbly? Did they not cringe to a false idea of
propriety? To foolish convention?"
Even without coat Mrs. Barnwell warns up to
her subject She finds that the sufferings of men
from hot coats in lower their resistance and
brings them to premature DEATH This leaves their
children without support and drives them into crime
Even the males who survive get pinples and erup-
lions all over their faces and bodies from the heat and
are horrible to look at. Indeed Mrs BarnweII sees
in the male coat potential cause of nearly every
evil save halitosis
We may doubt whether all the dire results which
she attributes to the becoaed male in summer actually
come about But certainly she has case in the vast
increase OF comfort which would result from sartoriaI
common sense in the male during high temperatures
and with no serious moral or esthetic Jeopardy
Mrs. Barnwell says in conclusion that she does not
know Wnetner to weep or swear over the obdurate
persistence of the male in his Sef-inposed tortures
She should do neither, but rather seek consola-
uon IN history. There is hope for our males.

them. They are considered among
the scum of the earth
During the war we felt the same
way about our spies. And many
women were employed in that ca
pacity. Of course, then there was
patriotic halo about the whole
business that dimmed somewhat the
nastiness of the assignment.
But there should be no necessity
for stool pigeons and spies within
our own gates during times of peace.
And any law that makes them
necessary is bound to undermine
the morale of the nation. Just so
long as we have prohibition, we will
have speakeasies and bootleggers.
Certainly by this time it is evi-
dent that the majority of our >citi-
zens are not in accord with Mr..
Volstead. Tightening the reins of
enforcement will not solve the
problem. Rather it would be bet
ter to drop them entirely.
The corner saloon is a thing of
the past. But crime, graft, hunger
and poverty, are stalking through
the country at an ever-increasing
speed.

'AILY HEALTH SERVICE

The only means of finding out
how much vitamin G, or indeed any
other vitamin, may be present in
food is to test it on an experiment
tai animal.
If the animal is given a diet with
out any vitamin G in it, it will die
OF acute scurvy in twenty-five days.
If such animals are put on scurvy-
producing diets and are then fed
the protective substances, it is
possible to tell by the response of
the animal about how much of the
substance is necessary to save its
life. Thus the scurvy-p preventing
factor can be standardized.
Lemon juice is known to be one
OF the richest substances in con-
tent of vitan1in G. However, most
attempts to pack lemon juice for
sale have resulted in the destruc-
ton of the vitamin quality.
Recently British investigators
named j. Williams and j. w. Cor
ran have attempted to preserve
lemon juice with various added sub
stances.
They find that the reaction of the
bottled lemon juice is of Importance
in maintaining its content of vita
min G.

They found that the addition OF

The Ane-Man

GONE time ago, DR.. Gerrit s. Mil
~ Ter Jr. of the Smithsonian IN
Stitution summarized the arguments
over the Java and Piltdown fossils
and said that the great need of an
thropology was the discovery of adj
ditional fossils.
That need, according to DR.. Smith,
is supplied in part by Peking Man.
Java Man was discovered in 1891
by DR.. Eugene Dubois at Trinil
Java. The find" consisted of q
skull, teeth and a thigh-bone.
Dr. Miller lists fifteen points over
which anthropologists have dis
agreed concerning the Java Ape
Man. These conflicting views may
be summarized in part as follows:
Java Man is 100000 years old. He
is 100000 years old.
All the bones found belonged to
one individual. They belonged to
two individuals, one man, the
other a gibbon. They belonged to
three individuals.
The thigh-bone has human char
acteriSticS. 1t has the character
isticS of a chimpanzee.
The skull cap is human. 1t is in
termediate between man and apes.
It is simian. It has the character
istics Of a gibbon. 1t has the char
acteristicS of a chimpanzee.
The creature was a true transition
form between man and ape. The
creature had structure which re-
moves it from a position of direct
human ancestry. 1t was a gigantic
gibbon. 1t was a dawn man."

1t Has Drawbacks

NUT on the African desert, an
" American scientist, DR.. Darwin
0. Lyon, is conducting rocket ex-
periments by which he hopes to
learn something about the upper
atmosphere.
It doesn't sound half as interest
ing as it would if he were trying to
shoot the moon," but it's vastly
more sensible.
The worst feature of scientific
progress these days is the supersti-
tious gullibility with which ignorant
people swallow the quack side of it.
An equally dangerous feature is
the way criminals take advantage
of it to impose on the weak and
helpless.
