The Chalk Line

Police test drunkenness by making suspects walk a
chalk line.
chalk line test should be devised for politicians
The latest evidence of devousness is on the ques-
ton Of reform Of national prohibition.
President Hoover and his political advisers,
Messrs. Brown, Burke, Smell, ct al, have been dis
cussing the situation. Hoover is in hole. He knows
from his own reports as well as from members of
congress, the Literary Digest poll, and for dozen
other reasons, that the game of the Anti-Saloon
League is up.
The people in adversely have discovered what a
travesty prohibition is. So the political mountain
labors with this problem, and seems about to bring
forth a weasel
liberal" prohibition plank say the Republican
conferees. "One to which We all can subscribe" in
the language Of Mr.. Brown
Il is ridiculous to expect the Anti-Saloon League
and the W. C. 7. U. to support any plan which would
provide for immediate submission to the people of
the question Of repeal 1t is downright dishonest to
advance plank which will be dry" plank in dry
sections, and wet" plank in most Of the country
At Chicago, the parties either are going to pledge
themselves to prohibition reform, or they aren't.
A fortnight stand for repeal would awaken
confidence in political leadership.
Even legalizaton and taxation Of beer and wines
would provide industrial and psychological
stimulus that would help TO lift us out Of the
depression
Early in the depression the President looked for
new industry" billion-a-year beer industry is
at hand, and public sentiment is prepared.

The WavOrs Speak

Prompt passage of the senate compromise relief
measure has been necessary for several weeks Action
is even urgent now.
On wednesday in Detroit conference Of twenty
eight mayors of American cities called for federal aid
at once Descriptions Of suffering among the unem-
ployed as given by these municipal executives, who
are in a position to know actual conditions, we're
tragic
We do not think that five billion dollar public
works program, as demanded by majority Of the
mayors is the best solution There other methods
by which the relief dollar be carried farther and
spread wider.
Where the public works method IS used we be-
lieve that whenever practicable better results be
achieved by concentrating on self-iqudating or in
come producing types of construction projects.
But the specific plan is not so important as that
some federal plan be put into operation at once to
feed the hungry.
Soon or late, there must be a compromise on the
various plans Why not now?
Such compromise has been drawn in the senate
by Senator Robert Wagner and his committee. This
compromise incorporates virtually all the Hoover pro-
posas It has three parts The first two would allot
S3OOOOOOOO Of Reconstruction Finance Corporation
funds as immediate relief advances TO states and
81 500 900 900 of such funds loans for incoe-pro
ducine construction projects 50 far 1t Is acceptable
to the President.
But he objects to the last plan which provides for
a bond issue for s5OOOOOOOO of federal public works
about one-half Of which carried in the Hoover
budget to be covered by taxation, and all of which
has been authorized by congress and the President
in the past.
This plank makes concessions to the relief school
represented by the Detroit conference of mayors
In general terms, the final compromise hardly can
be very different from this Wagner measure. So
there is little excuse for more delay.

Iapan Blunders Again

Bv threatening to reopen the question Of naval
ratios among the three sea powers Japan has over
played her diplomatic hand.
First aggression in China turned against her pow
erful American and world opinion which up to that
time had grown increasingly favorable to Japan. Then
her apparent provocative and militaristic policy
toward Russia heightened world suspicion.
On TOP Of that she now has embarked upon a
DANGEROUS course at the Geneva disarmament con-
ference There she proposed earlier replacement Of
old vessels than specified in the existing treaties. In
opposing this PLAN the American delegation pointed
out that this would provide overlapping period in
which japan would have both old and new vessels.
When the naval commission at the Geneva con-
ference rejected this proposal, Japan came back
with the warning that comparative ratios among the
powers would have to be reconsdered by the present
conference.
There is nothing sacred and immutable about the
existing naval treaty ratios They were made by
treaty and can be changed by treaty - when the
time comes for authorized revision.
That those ratios Of the Washington and London
treaties will be altered materially improbable. be-
cause most Of the governments concerned and world
opinion generally has come to accept them over
period Of years as fair Up to now even Japan has
accepted them as fair.
But whether those ratios Of limitation are Just
TO Japan or not and whether they to be revised
in the future, questions Of an explosive nature
which Toxic in her own interest can not afford to
raise at this time
she would be wise 10 wait until she has re-
established herself somewhat in the confidence Of
the world, before she makes move which probably
would destroy the little progress achieved toward
naval limitation since the great war.
Certainly II she presses for a reopening Of treaty
ratio discussions at this time she must be prepared
TO have the world put the worst possible interpreted
ton upon her motives.
What motives OF the nlilitarists in Toxic may be,
we DO not pretend TO know. But We believe that the

Just Every Day Sense

A MEXICAN womanhood subject so often to gibes
N of the thoughtess should feel proud Of its latest
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Earhart and her solo Atlantc

MANY enthusiastic paragraphs probably will be
written about this. We have an idea, however, tnat
Miss Earhart herself with her usual admirable sim
plicity will regard it as call in a days work and
60 on demonstrating her ability and courage in many
other ways.
THE thrill for women in this achievement comes
from the knowledge that We actually live in an age
when a lone young woman can climb into a plane
and take OF across the gray and greedy seas 1t can
be regarded as the apex Of feminine emancipation,
and certainly was an undreamed-of feat twenty-five
years ago.
1t probably will make Its mark, too upon the
masculine consciousness And 1t is there that we
would trace deep burrows For whatever may be said,
men hold women's future in the hollow OF their
hands Our destiny depends upon whether enough
of them will cast away prejudice and truly think Of US
as companions and equals.
HERETOFORE men have been preoccupied only
II with women's bodies. They have not, at least
until very recently given consideration TO our courage
or brains. or our desires.
They have Scoffed cruelty at the homely among
us and sneered gently at the ambitious. In thou
sand subtle ways they have assumed superiority pose
that not always is justified by their own deeds.
And we doubt that this attitude, this complete
and overwhelming assumption by men that women are
incapable of high achievements great actions has
crushed unnumbered feminine dreams?
Women have had 10 take their thrills vicariously
through their husbands and their sons. Even this
might not have been hard If those husbands and sons
ever had realized that beside them dwelt spirit filed
with courage. longing and aspiration.
When men finally understand that women actually
can do just about everything they can perhaps they
viii be less unkind and willing at last to take US
into the warm fellowship Of their regard from which
We always have been barred.

Epilepsy Is UnSOlved Medical Riddle

It has been well established that
the manner in which fluid is used
in the body may be associated with
the development Of certain types Of
commissions.
In the Investigations made by
McQuarrie, it was found that an
addition of salt TO the diet in
amounts just sufficient to prevent
the accumulation of water lowered
somewhat the number of convul-
sions.
In the modern treatment Of cpl
lepsy, advantage is taken of all that
has been learned thus far concern
ing the changes that take place in
the body during the disease.
Everything possible is done to
bring the patient into the best pos
sible condition Of physical and
mental hygiene.

Peoples Voice

Editor Times-On May %, you
published a letter written by F. T.
Wicker blaming the Governor for
the punishment of Theodore Luesse.
I must admit that such stuff
makes fine campaign ammunition
against Republicans, but Mr.. Wicker
should aim and shoot straight, or
he might accidentally hit an limo
cent bystander.
Theodore Luesse was arrested sew
eral times and dismissed because
the courts had no evidence that he
violated the law. Having to ap-
pear before judges more than TWEEN
ty times and successfully defend
ing himself on the same charge,
Luesse knew this phase Of the law.
In other words, he knew they had
no case against him and made a
statement to that effect.
Its a boast" shouted labor hat
ing newspapers. And the judge
gave Luesse one year and $500 fine.
Did the Governor order policemen
to strike Luesse and call him vile
names? No, these orders came from
other quarters. Is the Governor in
flicting mental and physical tor
ture on Luesse, day and night? No,
he is not doing it or ordering It
done.
The court decision was autocratic;
tribunal on rampage. It stirred
trade union men to action in self
defense. Inspires laborers TO ques-
ton the sincerity Of those who seek
public Office. Gives intellectuals an
everlasting text and furnishes a plot
that would be a precious gem for
tragedians.

GERMANS CHECKED
June 3

ON June 3, 1918, the German ad-
" vance finally was checked by
American troops in the Veuilly
woods. According to reoprts from
the front, enemy losses were very
severe, due to advantageous posi-
tons held by American troops and
the whitening fire Of machine guns
and "75's."
On the French front, Germans
were making slight gains west OF
Nouvron and Fontenoy, but French
troops started an advance Of their
own and retook Favorelle, north Of
the Gu, %.
German submarine warfare
against United States shipping OF
the eastern coast accounted for
twelve ships up to June 3, it was
announced.
In addition to this activity, the
subs sank mines of the Delaware
capes and accounted for sinking Of

DAILY HEALTH SERVICE

In a recent survey of the subject,
Or. Irvine McQuarrie points out
shat modern science has found GER
tain changes in the blood, certain
changes in the nature of the It's
sues. and certain changes in the
functions of the body peculiarly as
ISOLATED with epilepsy.
These changes have been guide
to scientific treatment, although
they have not led us to the cause
Of the disease or to any form Of
treatment that specifically controls
the disease.
There are some patients in whom
convulsive seizures can be reduced
by placing them on special diet
with low mineral intake and a
relatively high water intake, and
at the same time giving medical
ments which develop what is a posi-
tive water balance.
