TWO PROFESSIONS
CLAIM R.F. c. HEAD
Miller, as LaWyer-Banker,
Holds Title as "MoSt
Useful Citizen"
By the Associated Press.

by Cne ASSOCIATED fTeSS.
UTICA, N. Y, August 3.-Charles A.
Miller's business associates must have
gazed in a crystal last year when they
selected him as "Utica's most useful
citizen" They couldn't have known he
was to be named president of the Recon-
struction Finance Corporation.
For many of his IS years Miller has
been a man of two professions. He
started his career as lawyer, found
that his fathers banking business was
always present for attention and there
upon became a banker-attorney.
Sold Liberty Bonls.
He was president of the Utica Saw
ings Bank when the United States en-
tered the World War and promptly
found urgent need for energetic sales
men to sell its Liberty bonds. He put
the sale across" and became the local
man Of the hour"
When the business slump began lull-
ing the industries of his city to sleep,
the community turned to him for aid
in handling unemployment problems
and to help guide the city away from
financial shoals.
He MADE himself known to the bank
ing world through the sponsoring Of
several pieces OF leglSlaLl0n ultimately
incorporated into New York banking
law. Early this year, when the per-
Sonnel Of the Reconstruction Corpora
ton was being selected, Miller was
called to New York to act as regional
director from which post he was chosen
by President Hoover to become chief
Of the three -billion-dol corporation.
Writes Only for Self.
Miller reads omnivorously. He writes
fiction for his own amusement, refus-
ing to offer 1t for publication.

at Barneveld, north of this city, supply

cut by more than 4,000,0o0,0o0 feet,
but that consumption also has declined

CIVILIZATION MAKES
ESKIMO TEETH ACHE
Smithsonian Investigation Reveals
Effect Of Food in Contrast
to Native Diet.

Investigation by the Smithsonian In
stitution reveal that toothaches are in
creasing among Eskimos Of Alaska in
proportion to the amount of white
mans food they eat.
It was said that among IS Eskimos
who still live on fish, seal, walrus, birds
and whale meat, not single case of
tooth decay was found by Henry B.
Collins, Smithsonian scientist At Nome,
largest white settlement in Alaska, on
the other hand, he found seven out of
nine natives had decayed teeth.
Change OF diet from native to
civilized" foods Is undoubtedly the
predisposing factor in the increased
tooth decay, according to the Smith
sonian announcement. Before the ad-
vent Of the whites, EskimoS had the
least amount of tooth decay of any
racial group in the world.

The great problem facing the public
schools today Is the pupil who falls to
take sufficient interest in himself or
his school life to select n proper course
or to seek to fit himself for a useful
life after leaving school, Allan Davis,
principal of Business High School,
who next September will become pr!n-
cIpal of the new Roosevelt High School,
told members of the Piney Branch Cit
liens Association at a meeting last
night in Hanlline Methodist Episcopal
Church, Sixteenth and Allison streets.
1t is from the ranks of such pupils
that sangsters and racketeers are
made, Mr. Davis said. The solution is
direct personal guidance during school
days-a goal which cannot be attained
where teachers and school officials are
too greatly outnumbered by pupils.
