Example for Nation

NXTASHINGTON, the nations
w capital, is an example which
every city in the United States
should follow, according to Cheney.
He says that it points the way
to what must be done in all Amer
lean cities to insure reasonable
decency of design.
With only 10 per cent of the
buildings on the average in our
cities designed by architects or
others with any training he adds,
1--WE shall continue to be smothered
and deprecated by ugly off color
structures until we set up in each
city an architectural board with
power to pass on plans before the
structures are erected.
"The public has just as much
right to be protected from the
builder who is careless in design
and color as from the one who
erects a weak or unsafe structure"
More than a hundred new cities,
towns or villages are listed as hav-
ing adopted partial or complete
coming ordinances during the past
year.
Peacemeal coming by counties,
that is establishment of limited
building use zones in the parts of
the county desiring it, is reported
from a number of states, particu-
larly from California, where every
county is now required by law to
have county planning board.
Most of these coming ordinances,
however. are called very loose af-
fairs. Only about Is or 20 per cent
of them have been drawn with the
help of trained city planner.

THE question confronting our
L cities, towns and states, as
we'll as the federal government it
self, is not what might be done if
and when, but what must be done
right off.
Private enterprise has suffered a
continuous decline for more than
two years. The national income
has shriveled by at least Is per
cent if not more.
Taxes represent about the only
item in the cost of living which
has increased.
You can buy food, clothing,
houses and land cheaper than you
could buy in 1929. Only the tax
bill has gone up.
Something is wrong when we can
get quicker and more effective re-
lief out of every institution in this
country than from the various
branches of its government.

Glands Have Relation to Weight

tendency to excessive thinness or to
definite overweight.
When the thyroid gland is over
active, the heart beats faster, and
food taken into the body is burned
up so rapidly that there is re-
duction in weight, even though
more food than the average is eaten.
If on the other hand the thyroid
gland is underactive, the opposite
condition results.
When the pituitary gland is I'M
deractive from birth on, the human
being will tend to be short rather
than tall and to put on weight.
The fat in such cases is distributed
over the body, especially in the up
per arms and thighs and about the
chest and abdomen. The hands and
feet may remain rather small.

ailments.
But Europe relates to our predicament. our
vision still is blurred with haf-truths catch-phrases
and wishes that are substitutes for thoughts
The foreign realities are these:
Germany has declared she can't pay her repara-
tons. Public sentiment in France and England says:

not, the next move

That choice is what Uncle Sam is up against
And the sooner he decides the quicker he will be-
gin to get somewhere out of the maze he now is in.
This nation won't go to war to collect eleven bill
lion dollars That is unthinkable in view of our ma
tional sentiment for peace
Therefore, there is just one alterrative-ioning

In that discussion we should find out how much
we can collect the dollar and we also should see

IT SEEMS TO ME BY HF RYG9%

FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT has
Il issued his opening invitation
to the voters of America in the
form of a message to the legislature
of New York state. And it seems
to me that the banquet to which he
bids us is merely a meal OF pars-
nips and fine words. To be sure,
there is a little chestnut stuflng.
Though it is true that fine words
do not butter parsnips, they may
contrive to make them seem more
succulent. That is, until one gets
his teeth into the roots.
Governor Roosevelt always has
been a felicitous phrase maker. He
gave to national politics 'the
happy warrior" It was not the fault
of Roosevelt's oratory that his
man went down before the low
punches delivered by the partisans
of Herbert of the hair shirt.
Mr.. Hoover is himself phrase
maker. In fact, it has been said that
a phrase from Sir Herbert is a
phrase indeed.

Selfish GrandStanding

TN nine cases out of ten, this
l. grandstanding against wage cuts
for public employees is merely q
smoke screen to save fat salaries.
Mayor Walker says that there
would be little economy in reduc-
ing few big pay checks. Perhaps
not, but it would set a good ex-
ample.
At any rate, something of the
sort will have to be done. Public
administration can not evade the
necessity of getting in line with
private enterprise.
We can not hope to get all the
relief that is needed, or anything
like it, through breadlines and soup
kitchens.

Blind Politicians

PHILADELPHIA, Chicago, New
4 York-in trouble because of the
mismanagement of their fiscal af-
fairs.
The reason is obvious. In none of
them did the administration at
tempt to reduce expenditures in
accordance with the reduced capac-
ity to pay.
Business had slumped, factories
had closed, hotels had gone into the
hands of receivers, mortgages on
homes and apartment houses had
been foreciosed and hundreds of
thousands of people had been
thrown out of work, but the poll
ticians persisted in the notion that
they could carry on as usual.

BIG SUBMARINE LOSSES

weeks previous.
Of this number, sixty-Seven were
ships of over 1000 tons. Twelve were
ships of under 1900 tons, and eight
were fishing vessels.
In the week ended Jan. Is six
vessels over 1000 tons, two under

had been sunk by submarines. In

Cities in Disgrace

FINDER ordinary circumstances,
~ such a situation could be met
by borrowing, but most of our mu-
inequalities have exhausted their
credit.
Last month, the great, city of
Philadelphia had to stand, hat in
hand, and agree to humiliating
terms in order to borrow a measly
100000.
Chicago, second city in this coun-
try, and fifth in the world, can't
borrow anything.
The financial record of the aver
age American city is disgraceful.
Unscientific management through
a reign of cheap, irresponsible poll
tics furnishes a large part of the
explanation.

Members of some families are
naturally thin and those of others
are naturally fat.
Apparently this distribution of
fat in the body and this accumula-
ton of fat is associated with gland
ular activity.
Three groups of glands are espe-
cially important in relationship to
diet-the thyroid gland, the pitui-
tary, and the sex glands.
Overactivity or underactivity of

MiIWaukee'S Example

MILWAUKEE stands forth as a
Iva shining exception to the gen.
eral confusion.
Thanks to a Socialist element
which forced old time politicians
to forget and forego the usual
chatter, Milwaukee has been able
to approach her fiscal problems in
a purposeful way, substituting ex-
pert accountants for spellbinders
and formulating financial plans in
stead of political platforms.

through which the entire document
could be Scrapped.
And if your faith lies in democ-
racy, you should be willing to admit
that our present system of govern
ment inhibits it in many ways. just
to specify single instance, it can
hardly be called democratic to pro-
vide two votes in the senate for tiny
Nevada and the same number for
populous states like New York and
Illinois.
But when Franklin D. Roosevelt
says that the American system of
economies is everlasting his mean
ing is quite clear. He stands, then,
precisely beside President Hoover in
supporting that sort of competitive
industrialism which is best known
to us as rugged individualism.

A ernor Roosevelt has no earthly

Nothing is more characteristic of

The Choice of HobSon


A ND there is another adage
IN which states that it is not a
good thing to swap orators while
crossing a stream. If the choice
next November lies between Herbert
Hoover and Franklin D. Roosevelt,
it will be rather more a Tweed
Iedum and Tweedledee debate than
usual. The major parties of Amer
lea being what they are, that's is
saying a good deal.
Like President Hoover, the New
York Governor is fond of launch
ing a noble sentiment and then
scuttling it with a shot below the
waterline. L cite from the Roose-
welt message:
''Let us not seek merely to restore.
Let us restore and at the same time
remodel. To those millions who now
starve we owe duty as sacred as
to those thousands who died in
France-to see to it that this shall
not come again. This is the duty
of all of us-leaders in business,
finance, agriculture, labor and gov
eminent"
That is a very radical statement.
I could toss my hat into the air a
mile upon hearing that. But before
it came down I would want it back,
for while the hat was soaring up to
the blue sky Franklin Roosevelt
would be back to earth again with:
I'VE should not seek in any way
to destroy or tear down-except to
replace unsound materials with new.
The American system of economics
and government is everlasting"
In other words Franklin D. Roose-
velt wants to keep on doing business
at the old stand and merely put a
little more varnish on the counter
What Is Everlasting?
0F course, when anybody says
~ that the American system of
government is everlasting, I don't
know quite what he means unless he
defines his terms In any case, ever
lasting is a very big word, but if the
speaker means that he has complete
faith in the potentialities of demo-
cratic processes I will testify to
similar adherence.
But sometimes people mean that
it is unpatriotic tc oppose prohibi-
ton. And very often they mean
that any protest against the SUI
preme court and its practices is high
treason. People who talk of the
American system of government
seem to forget that the Constitution
itself has provided the mechanism
