The congressman in question is

because of his appropriations for

Ross was sitting at home the

helpful comfort of knowing that they wouldn't have
to strap in their formal kit and endure another hour
with so many of their kind again for many
years, if ever.
Nevertheless, the suffering must have been pretty
severe as they sat around the big room, done up
with rosettes and sartorial parsley like so many
planked steaks, trying to make conversation and
hoping it was midnight when they knew it couldn't
be later than haf-past ten. In gathering of sixty

forum, measure that has in
spired alarm beyond the borders
of Louisiana. Those who want
such a debt holiday may apply to
the state banking commissioner,
Jasper S. Brack, who is one OF
Huey's henchmen.
The power this gives the King
fish IS tremendous.
GONE lawyers who have studied
- this statute, which Senator
Long said was modelled after the
Minnesota law, believe it will be
unable to weather a United States
supreme court test. While the
court upheld the Minnesota law
it disapproved an insurance mora
forum law in Arkansas on the
ground that conditions in the two
states were different. Lawyers
forecast that the same thing will
happen to the new Long law by
the same general reasoning.
There is real anxiety about other
laws which further abridge the
rights of citizens by vesting still
more power in Longs governor.
The supreme court of Louisiana
is packed with Long men, five out
of seven. Now he is extending his
domain over the lawyers. He has
long had a feud with prominent
members of the New Orleans bar,
some on account of their corpo-
rate connections, some because Of
their challenge of his election
tactics.
So a board of eight men was
created, a state bar corporation,
empowered to pass upon the quail
fications of lawyers, with the add
ed power to prefer charges of dis
barment before another body
which may hereafter be created.
This supersedeS the present state
bar association. Senator Long
can influence the appointment of
these men, since it is provided
that the Governor may appoint

Your Health
by DIR. MORRIS FIsHBEIN-

D HEUMAI1C infections make up large percent
IN age of mans disabilities because of their rela-
tonship to heart disease.
Out of 100000 persons in Massachusetts, who SUI
fered from chronic disorders, $4,000 had rheurna-
tsm and $500 of these were totally disabled.
There is no single of the various forms of
rheumatic disorders but various disturbances of the
body may result in affections Of the joints. Some
times disorder of the glands sometimes disturb
ances of diet and occasionally constitutional dis
eases may be at the background Of an inflammation
of muscles and of joints.
In many cases, infection which is localized in
the tonsils or at the roots of the teeth in the
galbladder may send infectious materials into the
joints.
WHEREFORE any of several causes may be
ammation of this kind but later other disturbances
follow and complicate the condition.
1t is of utmost importance for person who has
an Inflammation of the Joints or any other type Of
rheumatic disorder to learn the primary cause and
to attack the disease from this point Of view.
However, since numerous changes will already
have occurred in the tissues of the joints or in
other parts of the body it becomes necessary to
treat each patient as an individual and to control
each of the abnormal conditions as it is found.
0NCE arthritis has oeen definitely recognized and
~ everything possible done to remove the cause,
there are some simple, but important, directions as
to the general hygiene of the body.
The diet should be appetizing and should include
plenty of fresh fruits and fresh vegetables to supply
the necessary amounts of proteins and fats.
IF there are any foods which the patient Is in
clined to believe disagree with him. he should avoid
them.

appetite For this such persons are likely TO

unable to take exercise and are therefore, inclined

Furthermore. it has been found by some inyes-
tgators that reduction of the total amount OF sugar
and supply of sufficient proteins and fats seem TO
favor reduction Of infection and swelling.
At the same time this type OF diet will supply
the necessary vitamins and also enough roughage
