INSULIN FOR PROGRESSIVE
CHRONIC ARTHRITIS


Arthritis is medical Greek for joint
Inflammation.
Acute arthritis Is well understood.
Ordinary chronic arthritis, COM
monty dubbed rheumatism" Is like
wise we'll known to be a focal infec-
ton. that is, germs Of one strain or
another (such as Streptococcus he
molyticus) which are cultivated in
some septic bed in the tonsils, about
the root Of a tooth, in the pelvic Or
CANS of men or women, lodge in the
tissues of the joint and set up low
grade inflammation there. which
eventually seriously cripples the az
fected joint.
But there are a minority of cases
Of chronic progressive arthritis, vari-
ously known as rheumatoid arthritis,
atrophic arthritis, arthritis deform-
ans, which we do not understand, and
when say that I mean no one knows
the cause of this type of arthritis.
Some students of arthritis have re-
garded this atrophic form (atrophy
means wasting and gradual loss OF
use) as of metabolic nature. That
Is, they assume 1t depends on some
fault in the assimilation or utiliza-
ton of food or the oxidation or COM
bustion of body tissue. But this the
DRY is exceedingly unsatisfactory and
treatment based on it has given in
different results. OF course that does
not prove anything one way or an
other.
It is pretty we'll agreed, among
physicians of experience, that infec-
ton Is not a factor, at least not the
main factor in this form of arthritis
Last year we told here of meth
Cd of treatment which had been used
in France with considerable success
not a cure, just helpful treat
ment. This is a course of hypodermic
injections Of parathyroid hormone
Only a physician can safely admin
lister such treatment. It brings tc
the patient a definite metabolie
boost, increased activity, increased
well being. Physicians who have
given such treatment compare the
results with the results of insulir
treatment in diabetes.
Some English physicians now re.
port marked benefit in cases Of
chronic progressive or rheumatoie
arthritis from a series of injections
Of normal blood and then a course
of inSulin treatment. They give two
blood transfusions of about a pint
each, at intervals of eight days, ane
get the patient up on the ninth o,
tenth day, if the patient has beer
bedridden or nearly SO. The insulir
is kept up until the patients weight
shows a steady gain-the patient
weighs himself or herself daily anC

is no place for poetry in the world to-
day."
This is a complaint that nearly
every poet has felt like making, at
one time or another; and the pecu-
liar part about it is that it was just
as true 20 years ago, or so years ago,
or 200 years ago, as it is now. The
world Is never overland to poets, or
over eager to get their songs. 1t pre-
fers to go its own way in peace-for
poets disturb it, and make it discon-
tented, and question the values by
which it lives.
But the poet sooner or later comes
to realize that there is a place for
poetry, in spite of the worlds indif-
ference. There is place, that is to
say, for songs and dreams, and there
always will be; and it is a pitiful
tragedy that gifted Hart Crane could
not have lived to realize it.

Painting the Lily

w. Irving Glover, second assistant
ostmaster general, is getting a lot Of
eat these days for the speech which
made recently to the Missouri
ostmasters.
Glover was quoted as urging every
ne Of these federal officeholders to
AXE off his coat and go to work for
re reelection of President Hoover
nd the accuracy Of the quotation has
OF been denied.
Publication Of the remarks brought
minor cyclone in Washington. Sena-
Or Norris demanded that Glover be
fired" forthwith and Representative
faas Of Minnesota came to the front
18th the more definite suggestion, in
he form OF bill, to eliminate all
ostmasterships. He contended they
re merely the spells of political war
nd that tremendous savings could be
1ade In the postoffice department by
Eliminating these positions.
Whether Glover should be turned
ut into the cold streets of political
Washington is question, for that is
lltra-severe treatment, but there can
,e no doubt that he should be taken
cross the administration knee and
hastised aplenty.
It is not that he let the cat out of
he bag, for all Of us have known that
me of the primary jobs of postmas-
ers, as with other public officials, is
o perpetuate themselves in office.
Few of us are so naive as to assume
hat the injunction against political
activities by postmasters is anything
~ a gaudy gesture.
Neither was his faux pas a political
,lunder to worry about, for neither
he politicians nor the people will
.egard the matter as of real i'm
ortance.
No, Glover's blunder was of diff
:erent sort, when you stop to analyze
t. It was a crime against political
art as it has been known and prac-
Iced these many moons. With a
group of Republican postmasters be-
fore him-and all postmasters are Re-
oublicans-he was painting the po-
litical lily when he enjoined them to
go forth to the G.. o. P. wars in full
and with flags flying.

A Good Example

One OF the most interesting govern
mental and economic experiments that
has come out Of the depression Is re-
ported from Canada, where the local
governments of six small towns that
have gone bankrupt are being taken
over by the province of Ontario, I'M
der a new law.
In effect, these six local govern
ments are going into the hands of re-
ceivers appointed by the province. A
board Of control composed of two rep
resentatives of the municipality, two
representatives of the banks, two rep
resentatives of the bondholders and
creditors and one representative of
the province will attempt to straight
en- out the tangled financial affairs
Of each municipality.
Each board will have full power to
hire and fire municipal employees,
treat with bondholders and creditors
and sign all checks. The town coun-
cilmen must obey the orders of the
board or face heavy fines: if council
men dare spend money without the
approval of the board they will be
personally liable to suits for the re.
covery Of such moneys.
BY dint Of close supervision and ef-
ficiency In administration, the boards
are expected to pull the cities out of
their financial plights.
Such a plan seems well worth
while. Insolvent business firms go
into the hands Of receivers for the
protection Of their stockholders and
there seems to be no good reason why
insolvent cities should not 60 into the

STATE LOANS

Organization of the board of
directors of the Reconstruction
Finance Corporation with the
naming of the president and the
chairman is anticipated next
week.
State relief will get first atten-
ton of the board. Relief funds
of some States already have be-
come exhausted.
If 80 States apply for loans, as
has been anticipated, there can
be an average of but $10,O00,000
each. Some of the States, how
ever, will not require any such
large fund. The maximum for
any State is $45,000,000.
Doubt was expressed by legal
authorities whether advances
could be made to municipalities
in States not permitted by their
constitution to borrow or those
like New York which cannot bor-
row except on approval of the
voters. This question has been
submitted to the board by New
York State, which desires a sub
stantial advance.

NEW YORK, July % Q.N.S0.
The news that Florenz Ziegfeld
had died came to Broadway boys
today as they slipped their coffee
in Reuben's, Dawes Blue Room,
Lindy's and the Tavern. They
we're shocked at the news. for
Ziegfeld was almost omnipotent
on Broadway.
They talked of "Mr. ziegfeld"-
girls who had appeared in his
shows, men who had written acts
for him, men who had written
about him.
The First "FOlIies"
Ziegfeld brought out his first
"Follies" in 1907 at a cost OF
$4,000 with a weekly payroll OF
$4,000. His latest "FollieS" cost
ten times that to produce, and
his weekly payroll was well over
$4,000.
ziegfeld had a summer camp
in Canada and he Travelled to
and from the camp in a private
car. He wore 5000 suits and he
carried his private chef with him
wherever he went. He sent dozens
of kilograms every day. He was
a mark for law suits and he lost
more than he won.
He was proud of the fact that
he paid enormous salaries to his
stars. George White, with his
annual Scandals" and Earl Car
roll, with his "VanitieS," were his
only rivals in the field of lavish
musical productions, but as the
boys in Lindy's said:
"Ziegfeld was in a league by
himself. George and Earl are
just a couple of nice fellows
trying to get along compared
with the big guy"
His personal life was lived far
from Broadway. After his early
marriage to Anna Held, which
was followed by a divorce, he
met, wooed and won Billie Burke.
This was in 1913, and when
