WALSH AND NYE
WANT EXTRA
SESSION
Country Faces Emergency
Due to Unemployment, Farm
Situation, Senators Assert

The persistent demand for a
special session of Congress was
renewed today when Democratic
and inSurgent leaders declared ex-
iSting Governmental agencies are
inadequate to relieve agricultural
and unemployment distress.
Senator Nye (R.) of North Da-
kOta and Senator Walsh (D.) of
Montana, united in demanding q
special session. Both agreed the
Administration was without an
adequate plan for carrying agri-
culture through another crop year
and had failed in providing relief
for unemployment.
Administration Opposed
They insisted Congress should
be called into extra session to re-
Ieve unemployment and enact a
farm relief measure, designed to
save agriculture from another
disastrous season.
Administration leaders opposed
the suggestion as they did in the
closing days of the last regular
session. Senator Watson, Repub-
lican leader OF the Senate, Joined
with the assistant leader, Senator
McNary (R) of Oregon, in de-
claring the country was benefit
ting by the vacation Of Congress.
Said Senator Watson:
'T am opposed to a special
session as everybody knows.
The adjournment of Congress
brought q favorable psychology
cal reaction among business
men and business interests. It
allayed their alarms as to what
legislation might be enacted.
Now the business people are re-
gaining their confidence and
business is steadily improving.
If Congress returned to session,
all these gains might be lost.
We must let business mend its
own affairs for a while before
we attempt further legislation.
Nye Sees Emergency
Senators Nye and Walsh felt
differently, demanding a special
session. Said Senator Nye:
"There is still an urgent neceS-
Sity for a special session Of
Congress- Congress ought to be
here providing means to enable
the Federal Farm Board to
function during the coming
crop season or we will face the
gravest emergency in the his
tory Of our country next fall.
"And Congress ought to be
devOting itself to the unemplOy-
ment problem, which continues
as serious as it was last winter.
There is opposition, it is true,
to a special session but it
comes from those who oppose
an increase in taxes and who
realize that Congress must ap-
propriate to provide relief and
appropriations would bring in
creased taxes"
Senator Walsh said:
81 believe a special session
is urgent because I feel when
ever there is public business to
do, Congress ought to be as
Sembled to transact that buSi-
ness. No one can pretend that
the grave problems confronting
our nation should not be dealt
with now"
But neither Senator Nye nor
Seator Walsh scarcely expect a
special session. AS Nye put It:
81 don't expect a special ses-
sion, because the President does
not favor one and he alone can

There are electric clocks made for

generally interested in having attrac-

en- things are SO attractive that the old
prejudice has ceased to exist. For the
young couple who are planning to 80

than the fact that Uncle Bill was plan

tonsils are not the only glandulat
structures involved in the upper re-

Hence the combination "tonsils and

Investigators in the University OF
Cincinnati have recently made a
controlled study of the relationship
OF removal Of tonsils and adenoids to

that the removal Of these structures

Being great American did not
prevent David Starr Jordan's being
a great internationalist. Few leaders
in this or any other country contrib
uted more to world peace.
He led the pre-war peace move
ment. He was reviled and his meet
ings were broken up by mobs when
he tried to keep the United States
out of the World war. But, like Ram
say Macdonald, the British pacifist,
he lived to receive even wider ac-
claim later from a war-experienced
and war-weary world.
Now he is dead at 80, in the shad-
ow Of his beloved Stanford Univer-
sity over which he presided so bril-
liantly and so long.
It is given to few men to achieve
international eminence in SO many
fields. He ranked with the great not
only as peace leader but as an edu-
Gator and q scientist. AS a pioneer
in higher education he was twenty
years ahead of his time.
But to remember DR.. Jordan just
as an intellectual leader would miss
somewhat Of the charm of his life.
He was loved by thousands Of stu
dents and followers as a personal
friend. With those riches Of the

Many years have passed since the
medical profession first recognized
the importance Of removal Of infected
tonsils because Of their relationship
to disease. Tonsils are sometimes re-
moved simply because they are SO
greatly enlarged as to interfere with
swallowing and breathing. Between
this simple enlargement and the Sc
we're states OF infection in which the
tonsils are filled with pus, there Is a
wide variety Of possibilities.
Much investigation has been done
to prove that the infection in the
tonsils may be carried by the blood
to other parts Of the body, and there
set up secondary infections which
threaten life. There are well-estab-
lished cases in which infection of the
tonsils was followed by infection Of
the heart, of the kidneys, and even
of the peritoneum, resulting finally
in fatal peritonitis. There Is also
considerable evidence to indicate the
relationship of infected tonsils to
colds, to infected ears, to fatigue, to
nervousness and rheumatic symp-
toms.
If it could be definitely proved that
removal Of the tonsils early in life
would entirely prevent or greatly di-
minish these diseases, routine re-
moval Of the tonsils would be advised
by all physicians. Unfortunately alb
