parallels the Missouri for miles
above this point, far from the riv-
er banks. They converge on the
river and here the Missouri flows
through a bottle-neck between
them.
All the engineers have to do is
close that neck with dirt, and the
natural basin behind it will fill
with water. The basin will be ir-

Your Health
by DIR. MORRIS FIsHBEIN-

MOST of the trouble with babies in hot weather
1Nk you'll find caused by lack Of care in handling
their food And since their food is mostly milk you
should pay particular attention to your babys milk
supply.
1t is not surprising that thousands of babies died
from diarrhea disease in hot weather, in the old
days, because their milk came in open vessels and
was ladled out into an open bucket 1t
taminated by flies and dust.
Nowadays, the milkman leaves bottle of cold,
pure milk your doorstep, but with this sani
tAry delivery you should take the milk in as soon
possible, for the sun can heat 1t and multiply
greatly the number of bacteria it contains
Milk in places simply will not keep salts
factorily In a refrigerator it will keep for long
time
If refrigerator is not available, the milk should
be boiled Immediately and then placed in the bottle
in shallow pan Of water with cloth wrapped
around it that the cloth dips into the water This
cloth acts as a wick to take up water from the pan
and the evaporation of the water from the cloth
will keep the milk cool.
TT is important not only that the original contaner
i be clean but also that every other container used
handling the milk De sterilized by boiling There
is no use in taking clean milk from sterilized milk
bottle and then putting it into an insanitary nursing
bottle cup.
Number of cases of infantile intestinal disturb
anceS during the summer and Of deaths from this
cause, has been tremendously reduced, but many
cases still are brought about by careessness in the
processes that have been mentioned.
If your child is able to eat vegetables, you should
include them frequently in the diet during the sum-
mer. They need be given only in small quantities
The vegetables also should be thoroughly cleaned,
because they are contaminated easily in handling.
If they are properly handled, they most useful
adjunct to the summer diet
FRUITS are good too, but they must be ripe.
L Green fruits can cause serious disturbances.
For very small children, the best drinks in sum-
mer besides plenty Of good water, orange juice,
tomato Juice and other fresh fruit juices For older
children lemonade orangeade, limeade and similar
drinks also are refreshing.
Complicated. oversweetened. sticky, and overstim-
ulating drinks will upset the stomach not only Of the
child but even OF many adults
About three-fourths Of the diet should be fruits,
vegetables milk and milk dishes. If these are prop
erly prepared out of materials that are clean and
wholesome you need have fear of intestinal dis
turbance among your children even in the warmest
weather.

F'ERA is starting on the first
task. 1t has announced survey
of persons on relief rolls to deter
mine their color. their sex, occu-
patton and capacity to earn a liv-
ing at the present time. While in
SuranCe was not mentioned in its
announcement the study is re-
garded as a necessary prelim-
mary.
The second task was suggested
BY Industrial Relations CounSelorS
Inc. of New York in making pub
lie a survey of the employment
exchange system of Great Britain
contrasted with this country's
employment service.
Great Britain's employment ex-
changes administer the test by
which workmen qualify for insur-
ance benefit payments. If man
is unemployed he must register
at the employment exchange. 1t
tries to find him another Job.
Only when it certifies that he is
idle through no lack of willing
ness to work is he eligible for
payments.
4 THIRD problem concerns the
L n necessity for establishing
wage standards in each industry
as a measure of willingness to
work. British workers. without
losing the right to benefit pay
ments, may reject work in plants
where wages are lower than the
prevailing level for that occupa-
ton and where labor disputes are
in progress.
Establishment Of such stand
ards here may require general re-
vision of NRA codes.
FERA particularly wants to
know how many of the persons
on relief rolls are able to support
themselves at commercial Jobs if
these become available. how many
will depend permanently on
made work" provided by the
government. and how many VIII
be dependent permanently and
completely
1t will study the question of oc-
cupa ton shifts in industry. an
important factor in adminiStra-
ton of any unemployment inSur-
snce system. Great Britain found
that to keep its insurance fund
from bankruptcy it had to save
large numbers from permanent
unemployment by training them
for different work.
Possible improvement of the
employment service has been
under consideration since its
treatment of workers was criti-
cised sharply by one Of the Dis
trict Of Columbia commissioners
who spent his vacation making
incognito tests of it.

All on the Up and Up

THE conduct of the administration has been
4 strictly ethical throughout the New Deal. AL
though Mr. Farley has found thousands of jobs for
deserving Democrats who may be regarded po-
ltical workers. it is not to be thought that there
is anything questionable about that. In a remote
way destructive critic might these workers and
other cash benefciaries of the administration as adj
herents bought with public money.
But persons who think on a high plane Will think
only of the good which is being done and of Mr..
Farley's duty to maintain in power the party which
is going to the country. The way to achieve
power and to keep it is to keep the organization
firm and vigorous The way to do that is to keep
the Democrats in jobs for which they will be eager
to campaign again.
Mr. LANCER not only was organizing party OPP
posed to the patriots whom Mr.. Farley has placed
on the public pay rolls, but soliciting money which
had been appropriated by the Democrats. The man
had his nerve.
There is misunderstanding of the uses to which
public money may be put. 1t is mistake to believe
that it is wrong to appropriate money out of the
treasury for political purposes. On the contrary this
is of the favorte for public funds and one
which has been approved by both parties as to
themselves, although heartily condemned to each
other.

to him on sporting basis he might have been
