Your Health
BY DR.. MORRIS FIsHBEIN =

CIT straight, stand erect eat bulky foods be regu-
- lar in your habits. and avoid worry
Here you have the formula for a normal dipes-
ton and prevention of constipation. There is no
need for laxatives cathartics If you stick to this
regimen
Constipation is a symptom not disease It is,
therefore, necessary, in handling any case in which
this symptom is the subject Of complaint, deter
mine the direct and predisposing causes
There are advocates of various types of bowel
action. Some insist that the bowel should empty
itself at least three times in tWenyfour hours How
ever, the vast majority Of physicians believe that
once in twenyfour hours is a satisfactory rate for
most persons.
Failure Of the colon or large bowel to empty itself
at least in tWenty-four hours may be
sidered a symptom Of constipation.
T0HOSE who advocate excessive activity Of the
Il bowel do so because they believe that consti-
patton a symptom is associated with number
of other symptoms. They point to the fact that
chronic constipation is usually accompanied by the
appearance Of hemorrhods or piles.
These are varicose veins in the rectum. Pressure
of the mass Of material that is not empted causes
a blocking of the circulation and in that way may
be associated with development Of piles.
The presence of discomfort, pain, nervousness and
seeplessness is in some instances because Of failure
of the bowel to act. Among the common causes Of
constipation are such factors as improper diet with
insufficient amount Of bulk bulky material being
in itself stimulus to bowel action.
NNE Of the most common causes oi constipation
~ is failure to recognize the call and, as a result
failure to create habtual action. Once a definite
time is developed and regularly observed constpa-
ton is exceedingly infrequent
Authorities who study the posture OF the human
being are convinced that standing in a saggng pos
tue or surlpng in your seat may be associated with
constipation through failure to develop properly the
abdominal muscles.
When you stand with the abdomen well in or SIT
erect with the chin and abdomen well in the ao-
dominal muscles are firm and their hrnlness Is re-
Aected in the activity OF muscles Of the bowels.

but not to the government. Much
of the IVA work is like that.
Other parts of the IVA pro-
gram can be measured still less
in dollars and cents. For instance,
the training and recreation pro-
gram for the workers of Norris
dam is given free, with no thought
of a direct return.
But it is making leaders and
trained workers of a large group
of men in the valley. The train
ing and recreation program is the
Twas substitute for the gambling
and drinking joints and red light
districts usually found at or near
construction camps.
The expenditures of the IVA
represent a nations investment in
a section of the country to find
out how certain ideas work out
so that, if successful, they can be
applied to the rest of the coun-
try. 1t is national planning on an
experimental scale.
The experiment is far enough
along to indicate that the money
it is costing is we'll spent and that
the whole country will benefit
from what the IVA is doing.

But there it is unsigned, and the
codes-pertaining to hotels, res
taurants, cleaning and dying
we're laid on the shelf months ago.
Organized labor, over whose Wig
orous objections Johnson junked
the codes, has seized this unex-
pected opening to demand rein
statement.
johnson revoked the codes on
the ground that violations were
SC easy and widespread as to make
the task of enforcement impos-
Sible.
The unionites do not deny this
argument. But they counter with
the contention that to strip these
trades of codes is to deprive over
100000 of poorly-paid workers
of even paper" protection.
They hold it is preferable to
have. the codes violated wholesale,
than to have no codes at all.
Through the NRA Labor Advisory
Board they are demanding that
the board revive the codes. If that
demand is rejected they threaten
to take the issue directly to the
President.
INNER administration master
minds are pushing secretly a
plan by which the White House
will get the Speaker and floor
leader whom Roosevelt privately
wants in command of the new
house.
These preferences are:
For Speaker, Texas decisive
veteran. Sam Rayburn; for floor
leader. Massachusetts, level-head-
ed John w. Mccormack.
Roosevelt believes that with
them in command, he can keep
his unruly majority in check.
Taking a leading part in lining
up support for this ticket are Vice.
President Jack Garner; Edward J.
Flynn, Bronx Tammany leader
and co-boSs-with Jim Farley-of
New York democracy, and Sem
ator Joe Guffey, Democratic po-
tentate of Pennsylvania.
These chieftains control a bloc
of seventy-two house members.
With the New England support that
McCormack's candidacy is expect
ed to rally, the number comes
close to 100, little less than one
third of the Democratic strength
in the chamber
During the next six weeks this
potently backed slate will have to
dc some vigorous behind-the'

1t has two dams under way, a
third about ready to start.
If the river is fully developed, it
will yield about a million-horse
power of prime or year-round
power and about similar amount
of dump or secondary power.
A T present there is no market
n for such vast amount of
power, but the potential market is
unlimited. For instance, heating
the homes of the people of the
valley by electricity would con-
sumo an enormous amount OF
power.
One of the reasons for build
ing the town of Norris was to
experiment in this very thing; to
see if houses could be heated by
electricity at a cost low enough
for the average income of a skilled
worker.
What this might do to the al
ready groggy coal industry is an
other matter.
Nor is there any way of know
ing now how the project will pay
out. Revenue from power is fairly
tangible, but how can you figure
the return from reforestation and
soil erosion?
Land reclamation is part of a
national program of planned econ
omy and can not be put on a
cash-and-carry basis. The same is
true of other phases Of the IVA
program.

Today the wealthy young chair
man of the board of the Union
Pacific railroad occupies, to all
intents and purposes, the position
once held by General Hugh S.
johnson.
When MIRA was reOrganized, 1t
was announced that nine-man
board would take ever General
Johnson's work. Colonel George
A. Lynch was continued as admin
istrative officer, a post which, I'M
der General Johnson, had car
ried with it little authority or
prestige
But after a short period of serv-
ice Colonel Lynch resigned. Mr..
Hartman was just as quietly
named to succeed him. Shortly
after that the position began to
take on new Importance. The
administrative officer began to
discuss policy matters at NRA
code hearings. The recovery
board, deliberately secretive about
its activities, began to fade into
the background just as the board
which originally ruled over Gen
eraI johnson had done a year be-
fore.
Mr.. Hartman was no more COM
rrunicative than the board. But
signs of his increasing importance
have appeared, one after another.
The latest was announcement that
DR.. Gustave Peck would serve as
labor advisor to Mr.. Hartman,
and that an industrial advisor
would be appointed shortly. In

What q Carpenter!

THAT is all there is to the affair of the $4,000
of the identical ransom money which was dis
covered in Hauptmann's garage unless you wish
to bubble about the separate cache of $500 found
in ransom bills which were rolled up and inserted
into augur holes on the blind side of a beam
If you should take this cynical attitude that
popularity too. can be explained in a manner which
will allay suspicion and convert any fair person to
Hauptmanns side of the problem. Hauptmann was
a carpenter and he was out of work But once a
carpenter, always carpenter So he bored these
holes for something to do in his idleness and it
only malicious chance which caused him to
select the blind side of a beam up the roof of
his garage the site of his boring. 1t would have
been more convenient to work a length of beam
in a vice on his bench but Hauptmann was no lazy
carpenter He liked to do things the hard way.
AS your correspondent gets Hauptmann's reas-
oning, he inserted the $500 merely as filler Some
carpenters wishing to plug unnecessary holes in a
wooden beam would hammer round pegs into the
holes and plane the ends off flush But Hauptmann
had just one eccentricity. He always filled augur
holes with $780, preferably of money
trusted to his care by a destitute
That is practically all there is to the case. 1t
all explains away simply that your correspondent
feels of guilt for having thought that Haupt-
might have had hand in the kidnapping and
murder.

because he was making important
decisions affecting both groups.
The repetition of the pattern is
interpreted here as meaning that
Mr.. Hartman, too, is going to
exercise considerable power.
THE post he now holds is Mr..
Il .Harrimans fifth with NRA.
Early in its career he served as
compliance director in New York
state. Before long he was called
to Washington as member of the
industrial advisory board. He
stepped from an advisory to an
administrative capacity in charge
of the division of heavy goods in
dustries. Early this year it was
announced that he would be Spe-
cial assistant to General Johnson,
in charge of guiding the transition
of NRA from code making to code
administering.
But that lasted only two
months. Mr.. Hartman wished to
return to his private affairs, it
was announced. General john
son appointed another assistant.
The new administrative officer
is an important figure in the IN
dustrial world. In addition to his
office at the head of the Union
Pacific, he is chairman of the ex-
ecutive committee Of the Illinois
Central railroad, a director of the
Guaranty Trust Company Of New
York. the Bank of Manhattan
Company, and Western Union. He
is a partner in Brown Brothers,
Hartman & Co. His fortune, in
herited from E. H. Hartman Of
railroads early aristocracy. has
been estimated at 100000, 900.
He lists himself in who's Who"
as a "Well-known polo player"
He is vice-president Of Raymond
Moley's magazine To-day" Be
fore his connection with NRA he
was chairman Of the board Of the
Aviation Corporation of Delaware,
one of the holding companies in
vestigated in connection with can
collation. of air mail contracts last
winter.
Mr.. Hartman is 40, but appears
to be younger. He is tall and slim,
a shade stoop-shOuldered.
