ANNE FEARS SICK CHILD
WILL SUFFER FROM
LACK Of CARE

HOPEWELL, N. j., March 2 Q.N.S.).
Col. and Mrs. Charles A. Lindbergh,
famous parents of kidnapped "Lindy,
Junior" are willing to pay the $4,000
ransom demanded by those who stole
their son,
The willingness Of the Lindberghs to
pay the sum demanded as well as the
fact that a ransom note was actually
left in the nursery crib of Charles Au-
gustus Lindbergh, jr., by the kidnapers
was disclosed for first time today by a
close friend of the Lindberghs.
Following the statement made by the
friend of the family, Capt. John J.
Lamb, in charge of the New Jersey
State police detail working on the case,
said:
"iarm would inevitably come to
both the police case and to the child
if the conditions laid down in the note
were not followed. And | am advis-
ing Colonel Lindbergh and Mrs. Lind
bergh to carry out the conditions of
the letter"
Suffering From Severe Cold
The reticence of the distraught parents of
Baby Lindbergh concerning the presence Of
the note, which had been reported previously
without confirmation, was attributed to the
anxiety of both the Colonel and Mrs. Lind
bergh to please the kidnapers - pay any
amount-do anything-if they could only get
their child back safe and sound
This anxiety was further heightened by the
condition of the child when he was snatched
from his nursery crib and hustled into the
chill of night, clad only in his sleeping suit.
Charles, jr., was suffering from a severe
cold and had been under doctors care.
Pay Anything to Get Him
Mrs. Lindbergh explained paintivey:
He will suffer because the poor child has had
cold We have been doctoring the baby for several
days"

poetess the fearessness she has displayed in daring

LISTER, THE LIFE-sAvER

To have been the means Of saving even
one human life is q most worthy accom-
plishment How splendid, then, to. have
been the discoverer of method OF saving
the lives of countless thousands, not only of
the past and present but of generations yet
unborn.
Such was the service to mankind rem
dered by Sir Joseph Lister, famed English
surgeon, the Tooth anniversary of whose
birth was celebrated at Westminster Abbey
in London and was noticed by scientific men
and the public in every civilized land.
Our own Public Health Service in
published statement called attention to
Listers service to humanity through his
discovery Of the efficiency of carbolic acid
and in preventing infection after surgical
operations. Before Listers discovery hos
pital gangrene was common, and operations
were frequently followed by erysipelas,
blood poisoning or lockjaw. The highest
surgical skill was set at naught by these ac-
companying causes of suffering and death.
As result of Listers methods it became
possible to extend surgical treatment into
fields formerly inaccessible, including alb
dominal, chest and brain surgery.
Another epoch-making contribution to
surgery by Lister was the employment of
"catgut' insewing up breaks of human It's
sues, instead of silk. "Catgut" stitches are
finally absorbed whereas the silk remained
as a source Of possible future irritation or
of abscess formation.
In recognition of his eminent services,
Lord Lister received many honors. He was
president of leading British scientific socie-
ties, was created baronet in 1883, raised
to peerage in 1897, and was. made. an ORR
ginal member of the Order of Merit in
stituted in 1902. He died in 1912 at the
age of 85. {.

SECURITY VALUES

Based on the lack of profits in Amer
lean business for the past year, stock
security values have no reason for increas-
ing.
Based on the intrinsic values of the
properties owned and businesses organized
covered by these securities, their market
value is below their intrinsic value and a
higher valuation is justified.
Between these two factors lies the
future of the stock market.
II is reasonable to assume that the lack
Of profits and the financial difficulties Of
many corporations will have an adverse in
fluence on stock market figures. But
financial difficulties are overcome if the
businesses are to survive and with the in
creased capital provided by governmental
banking agencies, these financial troubles
viii disappear and business should in
crease.
1t will take little time for financial
conditions to adjust themselves and during
this time q period of low values and profess
sional speculation can be expected.
As soon as business begins to revive,
which should be about the turn of the year,
stock values may be expected to rise.
Patience at the present time and con-
fidence in the future of the country after
the holidays is our advice to our readers

LAME DUCK LOBBYISTS


Most of the lame ducks will slip in-
to the practice of law in Washington, !"
says Paul Mallon, newspaper writer THAT
is disguise used in lobbying for big
clients
The public, intent upon keeping
armies Of unemployed, hunger and bonus
marchers out of Washington this winter,
would do well to concentrate little also
on the lame duck lobbyist. He may not
be such a direct threat to orderly govern
ment as encamped hordes of favor-seekers,
but his harmful potentialities are great.
Efforts have been made to control
lobbying and to keep the activities of lob
byists within rational bounds. Citizens
and groups and organizations have right
to present their causes to congress and to
explain how any particular bin may affect
them. They have no right to use undue IN
fluence to push through or to block legis-
lation in behalf Of special interests and re-
CARELESS OF general public good.
Lame duck lobbyists may be tempted
to go in for the latter sort Of lobbying,
knowing the legislative routine from the
inside as they do. The voters who took
them ont of congress for the time being
should watch their activities almost as
carefully as they do those Of the legislators
put in their places.

by this foolish practice.
1t ought not to be necessary to say
anything against such shortsighted
practice The wild huckleberry is a
delicious berry and provides food and
pleasure to scores. 1t is a foregone con-
clusion that they would soon disap-

fish practice of cutting down the bush
SO as to make picking the fruit lit
tie easier.
