Doctor Explains

"Wait a minute, pal" l as
serted, you're making me a
trifle dizzy. I don't quite get
you. How can people become
drug addicts without knowing
it? And if they're weak
enough to contract the habit,
where else can you place the
blame?"
He smiled.
IF you're interested" he
went on, I'll be glad to tell
you about it. Your writings
show that you are very broad
in your beliefs and your under
standings. But we are never so
tolerant that we could not be
more so. Listen"
And he told me a story. A
sample case, as it were.
An actor, we'll known in the
business. was rehearsing day
and night in preparation for
the opening of new show.
He was unable to get much
sleep and he began to complain
to his friends that he was Suf-
fering from severe headaches
for the first time in his life.
He didn't realize, of course,
that his condition was due en-
tirely to nervousness and the
lack of sleep.

mended a doctor. A DR.. x,

"One of the incest guys you'll
ever want to meet. Drop in to
see him after the rehearsal
today and just tell him about
yourself. He's done wonders
for plenty of people"
So over went the actor. DR..

DR.. K was very sympathetic.

I know what the trouble is.
I have a great admiration for
your art. and it really pains
me to see you suffer. If you
will put yourself in my hands,
I think we can make a new
man out of you. Now let me

He examined the actor in
the customary manner. And
as he worked he kept nod
ding. Finally he talked.

easily. "A little sinus trouble.

BY JOHN p. BOUGHAN,

CHICAGO, March 12.-Reports Of

well as in the Southwest and West gave
firmness to wheat prices today during
the late dealings.
Several millions of acres of hard
Winter wheat In Nebraska, Kansas,
Oklahoma, Colorado and Texas were
reported as requiring auspicious weather

caps. Ohio advices said examination
of fields indicated damage that would
be increased when wheat thawed out.
Wheat closed steadfast, 1a-15 above

provisions unchanged to q rise Of 5

was also pointed out that Argentine
wheat shipments were heavy and that
stocks Of wheat on ocean passage to
importing countries were likely to be
large despite falling OF in shipments
from North America. On the other
hand, current advices indicated that
German milling regulations would be

CURB SHARES WIN
SUPPORT AT CLOSE
Selling Checked, With Recov-
cries Noted in Public UtiIi-
ties Group.
BY JOHN l. COOLEY,
Associated Press Financial Writer.

NEW YORK, March 12-The curb
market took on a somewhat brighter
complexion in a quiet week end ses-
sion today.
Price changes were largely limited to
minor fractions, but the selling which
came into the Electric Bond & Share
group and other sections of the list
yesterday was checked, and small re-
coveries appeared here and there. The
closing tone was steady to firm.
Electric Bond & Share finished a
fraction higher, apparently rejecting
short covering. It was pointed out IN
brokerage circles that there has ap-
perently been some selling based on
the erroneous belief that the company
has omitted its preferred dividends
Ordering of these payments has merely
been deferred pending approval OF the
recapitaliZation plan.
American Gas & Electric was also up
a fraction, and Commonwealth Edison
was firm. Such issues as Middle West
Utilities, United Light "A" and Utli-
ties Power g. Light were barely
changed.
Oils were somewhat inclined to firm
ness. The new Consolidated Oil stock
was fairly active, rising a fraction, as
did Gulf Indiana and Cities Service
were about steady.
There was little activity in the in
dustrials. The Ford issues were traded
at steady prices.

COTTON VALUES RISE
AFTER EARLY LOSSES
Trade Buying and Covering Move

ging Market.
BY the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, March 12.-An early
decline in cotton under some Southern
selling and liquidation inspired by rela-
lively easy Liverpool cables was followed
by rallies on trade buying and covering
May contracts, after selling off to 6.96,
rallied to 6s9 and closed at 6.98, with
the general market closing steady at net
declines of to 2 points.
The opening was steady at decline
Of to points, with the active months
selling about to S points net lower
during the early trading The decline
to 6.96 for May and 1888 for October
appeared to meet some trade buying
limits, however, and after the early Of
ferings had been absorbed prices became
steadier.
There was further Southern selling
and some commission house liquidation,
but it was readily absorbed. Closing
quotations were within a point or two
Of the best.
Reports of continued cold weather in
the South appeared to have little effect
on the market.
Liverpool cables attributed the de-
cline in that market to local and for
eign liquidation influence by the steadier
sterling, and reported freer buying of
cotton yarns by British home trade and
India.
The amount of cotton reported on
shipboard at the end of the week was
estimated at $1,000 bales, against
$4,000 last year and $4,000 two years
ago. The weekly weather forecast was
for generally fair weather, with rising
temperatures during the first part of
the week, with prospects for probable
showers and colder toward the end OF

Italy Disturbed by Arms Conference
Tendency to Ban Bombing From Air

ROME.-Much is being heard in Italy
today of the "Douhet Doctrine" in re-
lation to aerial warfare, particularly
since the Disarmament Conference in
Geneva has indicated its desire to con-
slider cir forces as co-operators with
the army and navy rather than as a
special arm. The "Douhet Doctrine" "
very generally accepted in Italy, takes
exactly the opposite view.
The doctrine was first given to the
world in 1921. when Gen. Douhet. a
distinguished Italian officer. published
in Rome his Mastery of the Air" in
which book he emphasized the neces-
would be entirely independent of other
arms, as opposed to the view that air
planes should be the auxiliaries of land
and sea forces.
The fundamental idea of the doctrine
is that the first duty of aerial forces,
Of whatever category, Is to get COM
plete mastery of the air. Six years
later the doctrine was expanded to
embrace the whole problem of war,
and today it may be summarized thus:
Warfare should be defensive on land
and sea, but offensive in the air." This
argument runs as follows:
"As it is virtually impossible for anv
nation to seek mastery simultaneously
on land, at sea and in the air, it is
essential to have the strong force in the
field where a decisive result can be
obtained. That field Is the air. There
fore an air army must be one of Of
fense and must be brought to the high
est possible degree of strength"
To illustrate his thesis Gen. Douhet
has written what he styles IAN antici-
patton" known as War in 19-.'
Therein he imagines hostilities between
Germany and Franco-Belgian coali-
ton. He supposes that the Germans
have adopted his theories and have

Homer Was a Turk

ISTANBUL, Turkey.-Turkish chau-

going in heavily for culture, Is respon-
sible for serious debate held recently
in Ankara purporting to prove that
Homer was not Greek but Turk.
His real name, say the Turks, was
Omour. and he was probably a Turk
captured by the Greeks during the
Trojan War and brought back to At
tica, where he founded the Homer
legend.
Greek words like Bosporus are SINH

Ankara scholars, following researches Of
a Turk professor which attempted to
prove" that the whole Greek language
Is of Turkish origin.
Culture-in its Turkish aspect-has
become extremely important in the
new Turkey. The educational system
has been recreated, and illiteracy in
the country is steadily going down.
The Latinization of the alphabet was
a step in this direction. Thousands of
new schools are full.

any other German city, is the cradle

Munich also has the reputation of be-

repudiated Hitlerism away back in
1923, when Ludendorf and his Beer
