Irony, on Stage and Off
New York, May 14.-Something of
the irony and travesty that went into
Morrie Ryskind's dialogue in "Of

presence on the Pulitzer award list.
Morrie, aided by the ubiquitous
George Kaufman, was studying the
more ridiculous aspects of censorship
in preparation for his next satiric
rib-tickler when half a dozen Snoop-
and-peeps tipped him off. some days
in advance, that he was "a prize

No wonder Morrie smiled! He had
sneezed at censorship at the Pulitzer
School of Journalism at Columbia
He had been expelled for writing an
editorial that met with official disap-

barbs at war and at political follies
Years later he wrote Strike Up the

razzing of censorship -.

the trend Of the figures during the
last 10 years that the great group Of
mid-western cities with nearly TO-
100000 population Is headed for q
complete elimination Of typhoid fever.
When 1t is considered that there
would have been 10000 cases Of the
disease with 5000 deaths In Chicago
alone during 1881 II the rates Of 1890
still prevailed, the world will have
some idea Of what tremendous ac-
complishment this has been for sci.
ence and for public health.
All the rest Of the country COM
pares favorably with the cities that
have been mentioned, except that New
Orleans suffers with a high non-resi-
dent death rate. There were IS
deaths from typhoid in 1891 In New
Orleans, but 48 Of these cases were
brought into the city from surround
ing territory.
In Texas, Houston, San Antonio and
Fort Worth had excellent rates, and
are superior in this field to Dallas
and Ell Paso.

The Right Answer

The particular brand of Republican
ism which Senator Peter Norbeck of
South Dakota espouses may be lit
tie obscure, but whatever it may be-
the statesman from our neighboring
state appears to be sound when he
reduces the agricultural question to
choice of two courses. He said:
Farmers must reduce their
production costs and standard OF
living and continue to sell in
world markets at world prices or
we must create an American price
to maintain our higher level OF
living standards"
1t is as simple as that. The ques-
ton is which policy will the nation
pursue and, If it chooses the latter
how can it go about the job to obtain
real results?

Mr.. TOwnlev and His CipherS
Minneapolis Tribune)

It must be confessed that Mr..
Townley's idea of running $l5,000,-
900 900 in five dollar bills off the gov
eminent printing presses is exceed
ingly attractive, so much, in fact, that
it seems a pity he couldn't have per-
mitted his imagination to run in that
direction in really worth while way.
So far as we know, there is no law
against adding an indefinite number
of ciphers to hypothetical sum OF
money, and the fact that Mr.. Town
ley didn't simply goes to show that
he has no adequate conception what
soever of the tremendous potentiali-
ties Of the scheme that he has seized
upon.
The country. of course, is never 60
ing to get anywhere in the depres-
sion if the tight-fisted and parsimo-
MUS Mr.. Townley persists in boarding
his ciphers in tbs manner AS mat
tiers stand, that gentleman's mental
printing presses are only running off
about s125 for every man. woman and
child in the United States and II he
expects to return prosperity by such
niggardly experiment, We fear that
he Is doomed to disappointment. The
fiat money idea, quite plainly, de-
serves a boldness, vision and breadth
of mind that Mr.. Townley apparently
lacks. II $4,000. 900 900 In printing
press money is a good thing for the
country. it Is quite obviously Mr..
Townley's solemn duty to take an
other dip into his cipher reserve and
do thoroughly good Job of rescuing
the nation from all its economic Ills.
There is no valid reason, granting the
presses, paper and printers ink hold
out. why the ante can't be raised to
SIS ,000, 000, 900 900, sum which would
at least put $l25O00 in everybody's
pocket and q couple Of chickens in
almost every pot.
There was time when Mr.. Town
ley would have let few more ciphers
trickle through his fingers, but the
years have apparently set the blight
Of ultra conservatism upon him. Only
fifteen billions in fiat money? For
shame, Mr.. Townley! That wouldn't

These messages are intended for the
man In the street, 1t Is true, but they
should be given special attention by
the so-called men at the top. Our
industrial, financial and political
leaders should heed them, for 1t is
they, rather than the average citizen,
who needs to absorb the lesson.
Bankers who cry out against hoard
ing when their own vaults are damned
with money; manufacturers who
dream Of the halcyon days when
profits rolled in and who have been

they are afraid Of it.

patches, he saved the lives of his
wife and three children by leading
them from their burning home. With
the aid of his wife he carried little
daughter to safety, then returned to

old. Cut off from retreat by the
door, he led them to the roof where
one slid to safety on a sheet while
