Makes Many Arrests
For, you see, he has made more
arrests during his service than
all the rest of the Agriculture
cops put together
It isn't that he's tough. It's
9ust because his particular job
brought him into contact with
plenty of lawbreakers.
This was especially true years

known as "The Hook" stretched
along C Street around Twelfth

PAYROLL JUMP
HERE SHOWS
NRA EFFECT
Employers Reports Indicate
They Are Abiding BY
Recovery Pledges

Proof that Washington en-
ployerS who have adopted the
Blue Eagle are carrying out their
pledges on minimum wages is
contained in the latest announce
ment from local NRA officials in
their checkup of unemployment
here.
Confidential reports from 213
business firms show that they
have added 1928 employees. with
a total increase in monthly pay
rolls of $157.433.07. This is a
boost in payrolls of nearly $50
per new employe, which proves
that they are receiving at least
the minimum wage, $3.50 a
week.
Actually, most of the re-
employed persons are earning
much more than the minimum,
it was stated. This is not reflect
ed in the statistics, however, as
the general average in monthly
pay rolls is brought down by the
fact that some of the new work.
ers in some cases, are on part
time basis.
The 213 employers reporting so
far are contemplating hiring 752
more workers. it was said by Ray
mond J. Walter, major" in
charge of the information bureau
of the local Blue Eagle campaign.
On the basis of these figures, it
has been estimated that more
than 10000 people have been put
back to work here since July l.
Total additions to pay rolls
among firms which can come un-
der the Presidents recovery pro.
gram are about $480,000 a month,

bar adoption OF the proposal by many
nations which obtain financing from
London.
This will have no effect on our
program here at home. It is a sepa-
rate affair and Europe's opinion has
nothing to do with it.
Runciman's remark, however, that
Great Britain has had considerable
experience with such schemes and
that they are "the most unremunera-
tive OF all efforts to reduce unem-
ployment," Is worth serious study.
It may be that they brought less
skill to the management of such en-
terprises than will be the case In
America, yet our English cousins
have never been noted for lack of
skill. 1t may be that they lack the
proper social outlook, yet they have
antedated us by many years in sew
eral important social experiments.
A good many Americans evidently
feel the same way as Runciman,
judging by the hesitancy OF some
communities to load themselves with
debts in order to encourage public
works which, In some cases cannot
prove anything but wasteful.

DIET AND APPENDICITIS

The appendix has an abundance OF
lymphoid tissue around its base, It's
sue like the structure Of the ton
sis. This fact has led some ply
sicians to believe that the appendix,
at least in children, may have lynn
phatic function like that of the ton
sils in early life. Especially the
function Of guarding against the en-
trance of infections. The round cells
of lymphoid tissue probably serve to
attack and destroy invading germs,
much as do the famous phagocytes or
white blood corpuscles. The lynn
phoid cells can serve this useful pur-
pose only II they are normal. When
the lymphoid tissue Is damaged by
infection 1t can no longer perform
its protective function. But this does
not mean that we should attempt to
remove the entire tonsil, for instance,
when there is focus of infection,
septic focus, small abscess in it.
More and more thinking physicians
are getting away from the old at
titude Of radical removal Of the ton
sils. The happy results gained from
the simple drainage or disinfection or
sterilizing of the septic focus in the
tonsil, by the modern diather1ny or
INSTRUMENTATION method, has con-
vinoed many good physicians that the
older radical view was unjustified.
Besides radical surgery subjected
many patients to unwarranted risks.
DR.. B. Sperk presents in Wiener
klinische Wochenscrift (Vienna, Mar.
II, '33 conclusions he has drawn
from his studies and researches on
the appendix. He thinks the de-
velopment Of the lymphoid tissue Of
the appendix depends on the contact
with the intestinal contents and the
duration Of the retention of these
contents. He regards the character
Of the diet as important. The char
acter of the diet largely controls the
bacterial flora Of the intestinal canal,
that Is, it determines what types Of
germs shall predominant.
Thus q diet that is largely vege-
tartan tends to promote more rapid
passage Of the residues through the
intestine, whereas a diet that in
cludeS much protein, particularly
| meat, favors slower passage Of the
residue through the canal.
DR.. Sperk says persons who eat a
good deal Of meat require compare
lively more physical activity, for that
favors more rapid passage of the
residues and consequently less pro-
tein putrefaction. He thinks that too
much protein, especially meat, in the
diet, along with insufficient physical
activity, and the constipation that
commonly goes with these conditions,
Is factor Of appendicitis, but not
the only factor. He does not ad-
vocate vegetarianism, but he does
consider a diet with high meat
content inadvisable for persons with
sedentary occupations.
A pretty good rule is to insist on
having not less than three vegetables

Of some kind with every helping OF

Some Folks Are Funny

M. L. Wilson, administrator of the
new wheat laws, estimates that be-
tween IS and 80 per cent of the
farmers of this nation will join in
the allotment plan, marching up to
the government pay window and get
ting that 80 cents bushel bonus for
reducing their acreage.
The remainder, presumably. will
either go out Of business or go it
alone" without benefit of government
tai assistance.
That odd 10 or IS per cent Is q
queer commentary on human nature.
There are always a certain number
who refuse to conform and some who
think they see way to beat the
game" It is of these that this min
ority Of wheat farmers Is made up.
To the ordinary man it seems more
profitable to join the majority and
accept the allotment benefit. There
seems no other way to get as much
for ones wheat, and the wheat farm
er isn't in business for his health any
more than any other worker.
Yet 10 or IS per cent. In Wilson's
estimate, are going to take their
chances Of getting more for their
crop by staying out OF the allotment
plan.
The only other explanations are
that some are too Indifferent to join
in the allotment plan or too prosper
Gus to care about help from the gov
eminent.
There is certain proportion of

would seem, from Wilson's estimate,
that he thinks some Of them live on

A Major Attraction

Baseball has been looking up in
Bismarck this year, increased inter-
est having swelled the attendance at
local games, but the peak will not be
reached until July %, 20 and 30 when
the junior American Legion teams
will come here to decide the state
championship. aes3
These games constitute spectacle
which Bismarck is proud to present
to the people of the Missouri Slope
country and will interest far more
people than the average baseball
game because they have a much
wider appeal.
In addition to presenting q classy
athletic competition, the tournament
will have the atmosphere Of cham
pionship affair about 1t and 1t will
present young America in enthusiast
tic action.
Anyone who loves competition and
real thrills should reserve these
dates to see these games, for they
carry the same kind Of thrill which
mark the state basketball contests
here every spring, and for the very
same reasons.
