celebrated his birthday Recently by
eating ice-cream, just because he al
ways observes his birthday that way.
He is a unique figure with mutton
chop whiskers and ideas some might
call old-fashioned, but they have
cheered him over a long highway in
happiness and contentment.
He graduated in the same class
with the great historian Fiske and
others who have gone to their reward.
Only three or four of his classmates
are left. Cobb is an ardent prohibi-
zionist and he looks with disfavor up
on organized and highly developed
college sports. He has never wit
messed a football game and in his
school days when students wanted to
play ball they retired to the corner
lot, chose sides and got lot of good
healthy exercise. There was no $l0,-
600 year coach to spur them on o.
a 100000 gate to cheer their efforts.
There is something refreshing in
these 91-year-old alumni who just
cling on and buck the daily currents
Of life with smile and a homely
philosophy which put the cynics to
rout.
It is not such bad world after all!

Get New Facts on
Old Skin Troubles
BY DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN
Editor, Journal Of the American
NfnIH1nol As~nns~ <1nv,N

Some years ago whan NAH jonge
was the most popular form of amuse.
ment cases were reported by ply.
sicians Of eruptions on the skin
which became known finally as lac
quer dermatitis. It was finally de-
telmined that some ingredient of the
lacquer placed on the NAH jonge
boxes, and sometimes on the tiles
IN Japan was the source which
aroused these reactions in people who
were especially sensitive to the
lacquer.
Recently group Of workers in a
cabinet-making plant, employing
ABOUT 100 men, began to break out
with eruptions on their hands, their
forearms, and in some cases also on
the entire face and neck. Indeed, a
lew OF the men developed such
swelling about the face that the eyes
were swollen shut.
! 1t was found that all of the cases
occurred while the men were working
on an order which called for the use
OF Brazilian walnut. Out of 100 men
IN the plant, II developed the symp-
TOMS. These men were those who
came in contact with the sawdust
and those who sandpapered the
wood.
An inquiry revealed the fact that
there were some who did not break
out with eruptions on the skin. but
who did develop sneezing and run
ning noses while working in the room
where the wood was being used. A
lew OF the men recovered while they
continued work, but some men were
unable to continue work.
The importer from which the wood
was purchased furnished a list of
1lrms to whom the wood had been
SOLD According to DR.. Louis Schwar-
tz OF the United States public health
service, letters were written to all of
these firms, and it was found that
workers In nine of the 10 firms who
mad purchased the wood had devel-
oped Similar reactions.
A special study was made in order
to find out the nature of this SEN
sltlvlty. Samples of the wood, of the
Sawdust. and of the veneer, and also
OF the leaves of the tree, were SUBJ
Jected to careful investigation.
In the study a piece of gauze about
a half inch square was moistened
with water and its surface complete.

at her! After weeks Of subtle
persecution this was astonishing.

she returned to her seat she saw
Robert Dunbar smiling at her en-

The prospect of going into the

Good Fellows
New York, April 1.-THE arrival
in New York of Dexter Fellows usual
ly anticipates the first robin. and
invariably anticipates the panorama
Of circus wagons moving across the
nation and white canvas stretching
over acres of barren ground.
Fellows is, perhaps, the worlds
best known press agent; yet he Is
nationally accepted as a personality
rather than q purveyor Of circus ad-
jectives. Rarely does he write a line
himself. At his very approach, news
paper fellows grab for a Thesaurus
and allow themselves the tonic of
humorous exaggeration.

CUSAN felt lonely as she rocked.
1t wasn't that she envied Mil.

He was not the sort of hero about

There was no use thinking about
it. Without some male as a foil
a woman was simply wasted. She
didn't exist. Thus Susan's dismal
thoughts.

so discouraged that a little trickle

Wine for Foreign Athletes

"AuS AOl IVl Cl&u AtuletES
Foreign athletes who are in the
United States during the coming
summer to compete in the Olympic
games are going to have to struggle
along on the same sort Of diet that
the United States get. Prohibition
Administrator Woodcock has made
it clear that the foreigners will not
be permitted to bring beer and wine
along with them, although in their
own countries they are accustomed
to use those beverages while In train
ing.
This, to be sure, doesn't make any
especial difference to anyone-except.
perhaps, to the athletes themselves.
But it does seem as If some way
might have been found whereby the
visitors could have had their custom
airy menus, without undermining the
American prohibition structure. The
ruling will create . minor irritation
that might have been avoided.

Taxation and Wealth

President Glenn Frank OF WlScon-
sin university has just written book
that is very much in the literary
lime light. It's very imposing title
is: Thunder and Dawn: Americas
Appointment with Destiny" Mr..
frank is accepted as the voice Of lib
eralism in the United States and his
views on capitalism while not radical
or extreme are classed as being any,
thing but regular.
He points three ways out of our
present economic predicament:
30 The road along which eco
nolnic leadership may seek to ef-
feet a wider distribution of
wealth by the way it administers
wages. hours, prices, profits and
the other factors of business and
industry; 90 the road along
which political leadership. in the
event economic leadership goes
renegade to it's responsibility,
may seek to effect wider distri-
button Of wealth by taxing in
comes and inheritances more and
more drastically, and CD the
road along which social leader
Ship in the event that both eco
nomic and political leadership
fail or refuse to effect a wider
distribution OF wealth. will seek
to effect a revolutionary over
turn. I hope that America may
travel the first road promptly
and that we shall never have to
take the third road"
He urges wider distribution of
wealth by taxing incomes and inheri-
tanceS. Just how the distribution is
to be effected is not described. OF
course his theory is impractical and
quite nebulous. Placing a heavy tax
on inheritances for instance may
bring millions into the public Golfers
to be misspent by those in political
power, but wealth thus conscripted
by law will hardly ameliorate the
condition of the poor and unfortu-
nate. The decade through which we
are passing levied probably the high
est taxes in the history of the Repub-
lie without affecting the distribution
of wealth at ALL
The theory of conscripting wealth
through taxation may appear sound,
but IN practice it is a fallaciouS and
dangerous policy in government
such as ours. Russia is seeking to
bring about better economic condi-
tons by appropriating all wealth and
abolishing capital and private owner
ship and the plight of her masses is
worse than under the autocratic rule
Of the empire. If this nation seeks
President Franks way out through
taxation as means to equalize the
distribution Of wealth, the cure will
be worse than the present economic
maladies.
There are no set panaceas for
present economic conditions. Radical
nostruns will only fail. Bottom may
have not been reached yet. Recovery
will only come through steady, SEN
sible struggle back to new levels.
The demand IS for a fundamental
readjustment Of taxes, wages and
prices as well as habits of living, not
the adoption Of half-baked theories
Matched in the minds of impractical
academicians.
