Jobs for Youth

Some way must be found to furnish
Jobs for some 100000 young men
and women in the United States, il
they are not to drift into chronic mall
content which would make them bad
citizens.
This IS the warning issued by the
New York committee on mental n.y.
giene, which finds in extended job
lessness a grave menace to the NEIL
tai balance Of young people.
Young people who want to work
and cannot, the committee asserts
tend to discover in themselves "a
growing sense OF guilt, discourage
ment, and even chronic malcontent-
ment';; and once this feeling has
taken root, it is very difficult for
them to adjust themselves to the So
ciety In which they live.
Stating a problem, Of course. il
vastly easier than finding q remedy
That the depression has put a great
strain on young people Is undeniable
Finding jobs for all Of them, however,
Is thing that can't be done over
night.
Nevertheless, the warning Of this
committee is thing well worth keep
Ing In mind.

Ousting the Brothers

Those In position to know the
American Indian are familiar with
his many fine qualities Of mind and
heart. II the Indian has had trouble
IN absorbing tho white mans civil
ization, 1t Is not entirely his own
fault. Our treatment OF the red man
has been such as to make him an
unbeliever.
While Christian miss o n ar les
preached faith, love and constancy.
the white man too often has given
the Indian q practical demonstration
Of untruthfulness. responsibility
and cruelty entirely at variance. with
these professed doctrines. Who can
blame the Indian II he has been slow
to learn the intricacies Of our So
ciety?
All Of which may have little to do
with the action Of New Mexico's
Navajos in expelling from the tribe
scores of celebrities who had previ-
ously been accepted as blood BROTH
ers. The tribal council Of IL reached
the conclusion that It did them no
good to make this friendly gesture
toward their white brethren and
then have the latter 60 around boast
ing about 1t.
Privately. they must have come to
the realization, too, that 1t cheapens
the Indian to go about offering
blood brotherhood to every distin-
guished citizen who happens to come
within his ken. AS practical mat
ter 1t means little and it is very
doubtful II many Of the new MEM
bers thus acquired ever have any
sense Of tribal fealty.
Other Indian tribes, if they don't
follow the Navajo example, would at
least do well to restrict the number
Of "adoptions." Few white men would
miss the honor and the Indian would
lose nothing OF comradeship.

Only Part Way

The Vinson-Trammeu navy bill
authorizing construction Of l02 war
ships and lao airplanes for the
United States navy during the next
five years, is now law, passed by
congress and signed by the president.
But 1t Is worth noticing that the law
does not actually commit the country
to immediate construction Of these
ornaments.
As President Roosevelt pointed out
In signing the bill, what we have here
Is simply = formal statement Of
policy. Congress and the executive
have gone on record as favoring the
building up of the navy to the
strength authorized by the treaties to
which the United States is party.
However, the bill appropriates nc
money for this work. Not one keel
will be laid down as . result Of It
There is vast difference between
ships authorized and ships appropri-
ated for. Until this bill Il supple
mented by an actual appropriation
measure. it is a gesture and nothing
more.
The start OF the next war-and We
have had one for every generation
since 1776-probably will find both
the army and navy Just as woefully
unprepared Is We were when we en-.
tered the World war. Probably more
50. And the penalties for hayins
pursued this course will Be Just q,

Agricultural Dictatorship
New York Herald Tribune)


The notifications in the Bankhead
cotton control bill passed by the Sem
ate throw that measure back into con-
ference. There Is no reason to believe,
however, that the two houses will not
agree upon the main features Of the
bill. These include the restriction Of
cotton production by allotment, and
punishment for production in excess
Of the amount permitted by the gov
eminent.
As q measure for restricting out
put, this promises to be far more ef-
ficient than the principle of reduction
by bribery resorted to In other crops.
But its imposition means a funda-
mental change in the American sys-
tenn. It means that the cotton farm
ers agree to dictation by the federal
government as to how much cotton
they may produce. II they produce
more they are subject to fine and i'm
prisonment.
No wonder some Of the Senators
voted for this measure with fingers
and toes crossed" Here is regimen
tation with vengeance. This is the
first-and drastic-step toward ma
tionwide planned economy. which is
merely another term for economic
paternalism or autocracy. Cotton was
the first crop to be restricted on a
voluntary" principle through the
use of payments for reduced produc-
ton. That system rapidly spread to
other crops and now even includes
peanuts. As the system contains IN
itself the seeds Of It's own notification
and Is already failing. we may short
~ expect TO see move to extend the
principle q the Bankhead bill to 9TH
er crops. This means the ultimate
licensing Of nearly every farm IN the
country.
The best that can be said for the
Bankhead bill Is that it brings into
the open the inevitable but hereto
fore obscured trend Of the New Dea'
economies. For the first time the
country has the opportunity to see

Prices and the NRA

How adoption Of the NRA idea
boosted the price Of all manufactured
articles Is disclosed by Dun's indus
trial indices, published by the Dun
and Bradstreet commercial agency.
It discloses that during the week Of
March % there were 10 price ad-
yances as compared with 81 for the
same week in 1888 and Is for the
week previous. 49,.
At the same time there were %
price declines as compared with 10
for the same week In 1894 and 30 the
week before.
Two explanations as to why the
number OF decreases exceeds the
number Of increases readily offer
themselves.
The first is the current stagnation
IN the markets for farm produce. A
good many Of the items which are
listed as declining arc those which
come from tho farm. The good effects
Of the various governmental activi-
ties seem to have spent themselves,
ut least for the time, and the prices
Of most farm items show no further
tendency to advance.
The second reason il the apparent
dissipation Of hopes for fat profits
under the NRA by manufacturers.
When the codes first were adopted,
most industries seized the opportu-
nifty to jack prices up just as high as
the prospects seemed to justify.
There were dreams. perhaps. Of the
cost plus system used during the
World war, when the more . man
could spend the bigger his profits
were.
But that attitude seems to have
been superseded by more sensible
stand. Despite restrictions Of the
codes and the obviously justified
complaints about price-fixing. COM
petition has not been entirely elimi-
mated and is making itself felt. The
result is scaling down from the OPP
timistic price levels which were In
stalled by some industries as soon
as their codes became effective.

RAIL STRIKE UNLIKELY

Railroad Co-ordinator Joe East
man assured Roosevelt there wouldn't
be any railroad strike. Some broth
erhood leaders have since felt their
demand for restoration Of the 10 pen
cent wage cut-under which they've
worked for the last year-should be
intensified. following the vote Of Con-
gress to restore most Of the federal
salary cut. But q strike continues 70

Strike sentiment Is confined largely
to the younger employees and there
aren't SO many Of them, q unemploy-
ment and seniority rules have re.
quired that older men b kept on the
job during the long period Of railroad
layoffs.
Nevertheless, Roosevelt probably
will have to settle the current dispute
as between railroads which ask q still
further wage cut and unions which
ask . 10 per cent raise, as wen - the
restoration.
The result probably win b. Z con-
tinuation Of the status quo, with q
promise Of subsequent readjustments.

THE INJECTION TREATMENT OF
HERNIA

HENNlA
A reader sent q letter Of thanks tc
me for my recommendation Of the
ambulant treatment Of hernia. He had
received the treatment and was de-
lighted with the results. He mention
ed the name Of the doctor who gave
the treatment. So / asked the doc
tor how come. Here is what the doc
tor says about it.
Dear DR.. Brady:
became interested in this
form Of treatment in 1880, and
strange as it may seem, my interest
developed from reading your articles
in the paper. At that time my broth
er in law, Mr.. -. wrote you and
later my brother, Mr.. --. attorney
Of -, wrote you also. When
found my relatives were finding out
things about hernia that l did not
know I decided to look into the SUBJ
ject.
My brother consulted DR.. Of
and received several treatments
in his office. accompanied him once
or twice, and DR.. invited me to
attend his hernia clinic at the uni
versity where he and his associate,
DR.. -- have had remarkable Sue
cess in the injection treatment Of her
MIA. At the time was attending the
clinic the Clinic sent one Of their
staff to learn the method and it Is my
belief that this man is now using the
method in the Clinic.
The doctor adds one detail seems
worthy Of mention. The solution he
uses, the solution they have found
most satisfactory in the hernia clinic
where he studied the method, is very
simple solution which any doctor can
readily prepare for himself. I warn
both doctors and patients to beware
Of the racket that certain unscrupu-
lous interests are attempting to set up
marketing q semi-secret solution for
the injection of hernia. Any doctor
who knows no better than to be SO ex-
plotted, or rather to permit his pa
tients to be so defrauded. does not
deserve public confidence. / am
ashamed to say that too many OF the
brethren who have written me con-
corning this method Of treatment
have betrayed their incompetence by
mentioning that they have used some
such nostrum. The solution which
competent physicians use for the in
lection Of hernia is as cheap as dirt
and in no way complicated or diff
cult to prepare or obtain. do not
offer to tell anybody the recipe OF
formula for this solution, because ]
believe that it is a minor matter, and
also believe no physician is likely tc
succeed with this method unless he
sits at the feet Of a master, as did
our colleague, and learns the techni<
from him. am certain that most
failures are due to the conceit OF TIN
doctor who thinks he can go aheat
and develop his own technic without
any instruction from anybody. Tina,
same fatal conceit has defeated many
