BUY YOUR CHRISTMAS SEALS.

It is impossible to estimate the value
TO the community at large and to in
dividuals Of the work which the Ma
tional Association for the Prevention
Of tuberculosis has accomplished, and
is still accomplishing, in combating the
dreaded disease which is popularity,
known aA"the great white plague
There is no disease, doctors tell us,
that is quite SO universally prevalent
as tuberculosis. Indeed, DR.. Logan
Clendening, one of the foremost writers
on medical topics, states in one of his
books that probably every human be-
ing has at one time or another been
infected with the tuberculosis bacillus.
Most people recover without help, but
there is a very high percentage who,
unless the course of the disease is
checked, are certain to die at an early
age.
The prevention and stamping out OF
tuberculosis is largely a matter Of
education We know great deal more
about this disease than our parents
did. Curing it is not a matter Of eli
mate SO much as it is, a matter OF
rest quiet rest, ample nourishment
and exposure to the sunshine. The
cure Of the disease, if taken in its
early stages, is said to be reasonably
assured. Its prevention is easy when
everybody who may be exposed to II
understands the elementary principles
OF sanitation
This education is the work Of the
Association for the Prevention of Tu-
berculosis, which is supported by the
pennies paid by millions OF Americans
every year for the Christmas seals

FULL PUBLICITY is VITAL AID TO
GOOD GOVERNMENT.

Complete publicity showing receipts
and expenditures in all county and To-
cal units of government is one of the
most effective means Of keeping pub
lie expenses down, James P. Melon
nell Of Buffalo, vice president Of the
Minnesota Taxpayers association, de-
clared in an address. Published re-
ports in newspapers give every tax
payer chance to check up" on pub
lie transactions and taxpayers can fol-
low up with protests when these ap-
pear necessary.
1T has been demonstrated in Min
nesota that public opinion can def
nitely cut public expenditures, Mr.
Mcdonnell said "But the public must
be kept informed through public state
ments. The knowledge that all trans
actions will appear in print has re-
straining influence on public spenders
There never has been time when
public reports were more thoroughly
scanned by a tax conscious people
than they are today. tits wholesome
condition. 1t brings the taxpayer closer
TO his government, and its general eff
feet will be better government
Personally / believe that it would
be very helpful and enlightening to
taxpayers, if the comments Of the Pub
lie Examiner were also made part of
the legal publication. After this official
examines the books and records show
ing financial transactions Of county of
ficials, he complies a report, and at
taches his personal comment This per-
sonal comment would give an insight
into affairs that might otherwise 60 un-
noticed. II would be another method
Of keeping the public informed and Of
keeping public officials alert"

.LEGALIZING OF BEER NOT so
EASY.

Assuming that the necessary votes
for revision of the prohibition laws are
available, then the drafting of the laws
by congress becomes a subject of ma
jor importance What form of legisla-
ton will meet the demands of the two
parties platforms? 1t is believed that
efforts viii be conferred on an amend
ment. The senate and house judiciary
committees will have the burden of
drafting all changes. No doubt they will
authorize early hearings to have bene-
fit of outside advice One puzzle to be
solved deals with permission to manu-
facture and sell beer and other intoxi-
cants and at the same time guard
against the return Of the old-time
saloon. There is another bothersome
item in the protection of socalled dry"
states or commonwealth which did not
permit the sale Of Intoxicating liquors
prior to the Eighteenth Amendment.
The best legal minds of congress and
the incoming or outgoing administra-
tons will be taxed with multiplicity
Of battling detail The return Of beer
is not along smooth legal road.

UNEMPLOYMENT CAUSING GRAVE
CONCERN.

Members of congress are reading
with grave concern the proceedings of
the American Federation OF Labor con-
vention held in Cincinnati last Thurs
day. Making due allowance for organ
ization bias, the report on unemploy-
ment is disturbing to politicians and
relief workers alike. I'VE estimate"
says the A F. of L. review, count
ing all workers and those dependent
upon them, at least 100000 persons
are now living below minimum STAN
dards-nearly half our entire popula-
ton. Forty millions of them have been
dragged into poverty by the depression;
twenty million more are in industries
where living conditions even in nor
NAL times are below standard"
