JUST ANOTHER TESTIMONIAL ABOUT
 CHRONIC RHEUMATlZ

Moro than ono bright young woman has written to demonstrate with me when I say diet has nothing to do with acne (pmples and blackheads). These bright ones have noticed that they sometimes have a fresh outbreak of the skin trouble after overindulgence in candy or other sweets or pastry Cit seems fats or greasy things are to blame for the trouble tool. A mere doctor with experience knows better than to dare to dispute young woman's intu- ition, but one cant help wondering how or why the two million other girls who like to gorge on sweets now and then manage to es- cape the dire consequences
 Today received this interesting. CT testi- monial from reader.

AN OVERWHELMING CIRCLE

THERE has been much discussion OF how
many people will be given work as con-
sequence of NRAs establishment Of a work
week of thirty-fve hours in factories and
forty hours in the so-called white collar pur-
suits
The National Industrial Conference board
attempts to give partial answer It esti-
mates that $4,000 additional factory workers
would be needed TO maintain the output as
Of May Of this year. and BAL 900 workers in
other pursuits" This is total of 1880 600.
The figure does not, of course. make al
lowanoes for increased activities which would
result in many ways from the return of this
number 70 work. Nor does it include those
who are returning 70 work as a result Of the
general upturn in business
Apparently there is no way TO make
definite calculation. Higher pay rolls bring
increased consumption, and increased con-
sumption brings more Jobs.
The theory is that the recovery process win
operate In an Overwhelming circle.

Control of Typhoid Cases Difficult

tients we're no longer a menace
from the point Of view of distribut-
ing typhoid germs.
1t is not possible to state def
nitely how many typhoid fever car
riers there are in the United
States The health department Of
Massachusetts knows definitely of
between seventy-five and one hun
dred in that state, but estimates
that there are probably LOO Gar
riers in the state who could be
detected by careful investigation.
There is report Of one investi-
cation available which indicates
twenty-one cases Of typhoid fever,
three of which were fatal, traced in
a single year 70 seven previously
recognized carriers. Inasmuch as
the cost Of one case Of typhoid fever
IS bound 70 be at least $500. the bill
for typhoid fever developed from
carriers is far beyond any cost that
might accrue from assembling all
OF the carriers in any community
and taking necessary measures to
free them Of their menace to the
community.

THE control Of the carriers OF
IL typhoid fever represents one of
the most difficult problems con-
fronting physicians and health Of
fcers today The carrier Of typhoid
fever is a person who has within
his body the germs Of the disease,
and who spreads them about in his
excretions and secretions, and
through the soiling of his hands
and later in handling food
If health departments watch
these people too closely, they are
likely to seek cover and shen can
never be reached. In some states
attempts have been made to sup
port such carriers at the expense
of the state in order 70 control
them. but this is an expensive pro-
cedure and really serves no valu-
able purpose, because many car
riers simply take the money and
are careless anyway.
In most instances, the germs are
carried in the gall bladder. Re-

EASTMAN'S ADVICE

ordinator, has one of the more difficult
jobs in the new deal
His task is to promote economies in rail-
way operation. Economies usually mean dis
charging men. But, under the act Co-ordi-
nator Eastman administers, this fortunately
is prevented
Mr.. Eastman, recognizing that he and his
agency constitute part of the Roosevelt re-
covery machine, has asked railway manage
ments to put as many men as possible back
to work. He also has addressed the railway
executives in behalf of reductions of their
own large salaries.
Railroads should heed the requests of the

state commerce commission just has decided
to keep up freight rates. Unless the railroads
employ more men, they will be out of lire
