Cities and Duluth, which commission
members said was torn down after q

now propose generally to 60 back to
the rates prior to that date, accord

A Doctor Discovers That He Has a Soul

A. I. Cronin, that scottish doc- tor. who suddenly, discovered that he had been born to be a story teller. has written another novel. "Grand Canary"; and, like his pre- yious books, 1t Is an interesting story, told with warmth and sym pathetic understanding.
 It's central character Is a Lon don doctor---an intense, earnest chap is disgraced when something roes wrong with his efforts to de- visit a new serum to cure menin- ritis. He gets blamed. unjustly, for the deaths of three patients, nd his career tumbles down about his ears. Trying to get his feet back on the ground again. he takes a dejected vacation trap to the Canary Islands.
 There two things happen to him; he falls In love, for the first time in his life, and he runs smack into an epidemic of yellow fever. And the upshot of 1t all is that at last he is able to go back to London, triumph over his disgrace and resume his career once more.
 There is more to all of this than the conventional happy end- ing. For this doctor gets back on the right path not merely because external circumstances suddenly become favorable: he undergoes an inner change which Is vastly more important. He learns to drop his coldly scientific attitude, to develop a genuine sympathy for human suffering. He discovers. in short and hope you don't object to the expression-that he has a soul.
 Considered coldly. Grand Ca- nary" isn't as good book as "Hatter's Castle" was; but some how 1t is better reading. Little Brown and company Is publishing it at S2,50,

 Super Sleuth Again on Job, Already Busy

which he represented some of the coal claimants, had meanwhile been appointed secretary of the interior bN President Taft. He supported the validity oi the claims despite the protests of Glavis-and Giavis was fired af. ter he had obtained the support of Clifford .Pinchot, who was then in charge of the national forests, in part of which the coal claims were located. Glavis published his charges.
 Claims Cancelled
 A storm of controversy broke out over the country-which helped wreck the Taft admiriis- tration. Louis D. Brandeis, now supreme court justice, and Joe Cotton, afterward assistant sec retary of X state, were attorneys for Glavis at the investigation and Glavis, who stood successfully against the assaults of Senator Elihu Root.
 Pinchot was fired, but Ballinger resigned and Taft appointed a suc- cessor who cancelled all the claims.
 Glavis practiced law and then went investigating for magazines. Before Teapot Dome and Sinclair mad Doheny became famous he has raised the oil case issue.
 He obtained all the secret doc uments of the klan from its i'm perial palace at Atlanta and ex- posed them to the world.
 Then came the spurious Mex ican documents, accusing Sena- tors LaFollette, Norris and others of accepting hundreds of thousands of dollars of "bolshevik money" Glavis was employed by the Mexi- can consul general in New York to prove them fraudulent. He did. Next he made private investiga- tion of the power trust"

Another Expose

There have been various stories afoat ot recent weeks that give the impression that all has not been as well at Muscle Shoals as might have been expected There have been rumors of various natures. Is it time Z for an expose of governmental short t-sight- edness or laxity' Are we to be introduced to another Teapot Dome expose? Louis K. Glavs is doing some investigating down at Muscle Shoals and if anything is amiss he is the man to discover it. And we think that : #, an able prosecutor is needed Senator George w. Norris will fit the role.
 One of the first stories that appeared in the public print was to the effect that pri- vate companies now securing electric power at Muscle Shoals had been receiving more Z than what they were paying for. Whether this was intentional or merely an accident remains to be seen. Now we learn that a dam was started below the power dam which would have aided navigation eonsid- erably but hampered the operation of the great power dam. That it was intended to hamper the development of Muscle Shoals seems to be the coneensus at Washington, since this unproposed dam that the war de- partment actually started work on was 20 feet lower than the power dam.
 Former Secretary of War Hurley is to be interviewed to secure valuable information. Other officials of the Hoover administration may also be asked to return to Washington to give their versions. It is even proposed to ask former President Hoover about the pro- feet. We should think Mir Hurley and his former aides should be able to supply the missing information. And it ought to be we'll worth reading. Muscle Shoals IS riding high in national publicity. Anything the public should know must be revealed.
