Almost the Limit
The secret is out!

The secret is outl
Delay in the return of prosperity is due to a
deep, dark plot by the political enemies of Mr.
Hoover, who have been making bear raids on the
Stock Exchange and wheat pit to keep down prices
and prolong the depression.
We are indebted to the Republican national COM
mittee for the discovery. which is broadcast in its
weekly news letter.
1T seems to be part of deliberate plan, no
doubt politically motivated says the letter. ito him
der business recovery The regularity with which it
has happened seems to justify the conclusion that
the political interests which are opposed to the re-
election of Mr.. Hoover and the continuation of the
Republican party in power are conducting a DELHI
crate and highly organized campaign to protract the
period of depression hoping to carry it over until
next year when it be made politically effective
The operations in the wheat pit, to which the Presi-
dent calls attention of the country are obviously
part of this plan"
This is of course the sheerest sort of pe. Voters
supposed to be gullibe, but it scarcely con-
cevable that the Republican national committee
should try to persuade them by this sort of mis-
representation.
We expect to hear all sort of claptrap before an
the Republican managers intend to give us. The eco
nomic problems Of this country and of the world
deep rooted and fundamental and their solution re-
quires craftsmanship of the highest order. The Re-
publican party has definite responsibility to evolve
concrete program for submission to the voters. II
can not dodge that responsibility by such manifest
absurdities and expect any voters to retain conf
dence in the party.

Science Reduces Childbirth Mortality

gradual development of hospitals
throughout the country will
eventually provide for the care of
an increasing number Of cases
under improved conditions, but it
hardly seems likely that at a J
time in the next century will the
vast majority of cases Of child
birth be so provided for.
Certain conditions of disease are
intimately associated with economic
conditions. People living in da1 p
cellars, people who are not pro-
vided with sufficient fuel and food,
suffer from conditions which, of
course, do not affect those who are
well provided for.
Until Utopia is reached, women in
childbirth whose children are I n
attended by ignorant or careless
nlidwives, whose children are born
under filthy conditions, are likely
to suffer in a con- 55erable number
OF cases with puerperal infection.
The distribution of pamphlets ex-
planning these facts to the poverty
stricken and to the midwives is help
full from an educational point of
view, but it is hardly likely to do a
great deal in lowering the incidence
o. the condition Or the death rate.

KERENSKY'S APPOINTMENT

hEhENShY'S APPOINTMENT
July 20.
ON July 20, 1917, it was an
~ nounced that the Russian pre-
mier, Prince Lvoff, had resigned
and that Alexander F. Kerensky
had been appointed premier, but
would also temporarily retain his
portfolio as minister of war and
munitions.
Following the announcement a
new government quickly was
formed. Kerensky was made prac-
tical dictator and his government
received the complete Endorsement
Of the Joint Congress of Workmen's
and Soldiers Councils and of the
Au-Russia Council Of Peasant Dele
gates.
The councils decided to confer
supreme and unrestricted power on
the government.
Orders were given to fire on de-
serters at the front, and warrants
were issued for the arrest of
revolutionary agitators wherever
they might be. Rear Admiral YER
dervski, commander of the Baltic
fleet, was seized for communicating
a secret government telegram to
sailors committees. Lieutenant
Dashkevitch was arrested on the
charge Of melting the Peterhof
troops to remove the provisional
government.

corner stone Of foreign policy during the last
three administrations says it understands the con-
ference is to be limited entirely to the present
emergency"
Secretary stinson is supposed to have been told
to avoid political matters. Nevertheless the confer
ence, in seeking ways to meet the crisis in central
Europe, will discuss debts which inevitably are
bound up with the Young plan and reparations and
the treaty Of Versailles, despite our pretense to the
contrary.
And 1t is difficult to see how discussion of the
political concessions France has demanded from Ger
many as the price Of assistance can be avoided Since
the economic difficulties of Europe are due in part
to armament expenditures this topic, too would seem
important IN any scheme Of international co-opera-
ton that is worked out.
Thus while there has been officially acknowledged
modification of foreign policy, we have none the
less been drawn rresistibly into world affairs We
could not, as the worlds mightiest power, remain
aloof could we escape the consequences of
threatening world chaos Participation has been
thrust upon us, whether we want it or not
Much will depend on what we do 1t is not enough
that the present emergency" be met and that Ger
many be tided over to face another inevitable day
OF reckoning. The debt moratorium and the new
credits under consideration are excellent beginnings
but in themselves 6hey are not enough to restore
world prosperity and bring permanent peace
War debts and reparatons must be wiped out or
modified to the point where they cease to breed Ill
WILL Tariffs must be reduced and other trade barriers
removed.
Most important of all, there must be drastic liri-
tation of ornaments Eventually-and the sooner the
better-there should be a REORGANIZATION of the
treaty of Versailles and elimination of some of the
injustices it imposes
II all these essential reforms are to be accom-
pshed there must be full cooperation of the United
States from selfish viewpoint, if from no other.

HEALTH SERVICE -

the Western Reserve university has
analysed the deaths from this cause
in the United States for the period
from 1922 to 1927, inclusive.
The figures show that there GER
tainly has been no tendency for the
rates to decline in the city white,
city Negro, or rural Negro of the
population.
Among white people living in the
country the rates seem to have had
a. slight tendency to decline, but in
view of the shortness of the period
studied this is not believed to have
much significance.
There seems to be no doubt that
when women give birth to children
in hospitals under well controlled
conditions and when the childbirth
is attended by a competent pilysi-
clan who understands thoroughly
the methods of prevention of puer-
peral infection, the rates can be
greatly reduced.
Unfortunately the vast majority
of women do not give birth to chill
dren under such optimum condi-
tons.
There is reason to believe that
extension Of education and the
