Labor day the object Of controversy, the re-

open although the majority would have been

The same question comes up several
times each year, frequently ending in the
same manner, sometimes with hard feelings
on the part of merchants or of organizations
particularly interested in the observance of
certain holidays.

Wanted: Action


~ so bold that they dared snatch the chill
dren of American families and bargain
with their frantic parents while threats Of
violence to their victims kept police at bay,
the public suddenly dropped it's complacence
and backed authorities in their shoot-to-kill
campaign against crime. Almost overnight
the crime wave was quashed.
Today the public is again dropping it's
SNUG attitude toward the slaughter on our
highways. The drunken, the fast and the
otherwise reckless drivers are the object of
public wrath and the feeling rises with each
report of another days toll of killed and
manned.
In the past there has been a tendency to
gloss over accidents. Witnesses seldom
could be found to testify in criminal actions
against guilty drivers. Officials hesitated to
bring suit when evidence was lacking and
without public support. Potent industries
affected by accidents discouraged efforts,
directly or Indirectly, to bring the condition
before the public. Feelings of friends and
relatives were considered in false respect
for the victims.
Today that era is passing. Witnesses
in certain fragrant cases are found ready and
willing to talk on the stand. The public not
only supports officialdom in it's efforts, but
demands action. Industries are recognizing
that cleaning up the condition is essential.
Minnesotans applaud the announcement
that the state highway patrol is now author
lied to arrest and bring into court drivers
who exceed reasonable speed limits, whether
an accident results or not. This always
should have been it's job as much as seeing
that safety equipment is in order and that
rules as to passing on corners, stopping at
arterial streets and similar regulations are
enforced The claw" is definitely after the
fellow who speeds to "save" few moments,
only to waste them later.
The country has always known the
menace of drunken driving yet every city OF
any size allowed itself to become surrounded
with taverns of many kinds and descrip-
tions where men and women can and do be-
come half wild with liquor and then go tear
ing off to another "joint" in death dealing
cars Some cities are realizing their folly, are
clamping down tight on drunken drivers and
the places that produce the majority of
them.
Conferences have been called, including
one in Minnesota, which can accomplish
something if facts are faced and the blame
placed where it belongs. Mere talking will
not do it. The public must back the author
tiles and where they are latent, press them
to make examples of forewarned auto-kill-
erS.
Persons who say it can't be done are re-
ferred to an article in the September Ladies
Home Journal on Milwaukee, the city which
today is two and one-half times safer than
the average for all the rest of America,
where the traffic death rate has gone down
in four years from 102 to sc to 73 and last
year, to 66-while most cities had tremen-
dous increase.
It's system is scientific planning of traf
fic handling, strict training of motorists and
pedestrians and heavy, certain and repeated
fines and Jail sentences for those who fail to
learn and obey the laws.

Here's q Box Office Flash

NTR. JACOBS is recognized a box office wizard
1V1 and better proof of his wZardry could be
asked than his feat of scattering the Negro
toners about the premises instead of Jumping them
in blocks at the Louis Camera fight in the Yankee
Stadium. This was done to minimize trouble in the
event that the fight had wound up in a bad
decision like those between Schmeling and Jack
Sharkey the Dempsey Sharkey Paulino-De-
laney fights to mention a few Mr.. Jacobs is
master of all the arts and wileS of ticket distribu
ton and it delicate tribute to his genius which
appeared page of Mr.. Hearsts American the
morning after.
1t was stated there that some of the ringsde
tickets bearing the nominal price of $3.50, the price
on which the government tax paid. had sold for
much 500 away from the box office. Even
dividing this price by two and assuming that 10000
would indicate yield of $685. 500, which was not in
cluded in the figures which the baly-hoo babies
received their dividend. The babies who carried the
sandwich board for the prize fight, received 10 per
cent of the gross receipts after the tax had been de-
Quoted and so per cent of the net profits to the
called club. All showmen of any experience have
instructive suspicion of net figures but the babies,
being inexperienced and not very good bookkeepers,
take what they are given without demanding
vouchers They and other babies before them have
been doing this for years
So it will be seen that Mr.. Schmeng, though he
may be asking than he is worth and thus de-
feating his interests, is not reasonably to be
accused of ingratitude to the nation which made
him rich denounced for 6 lack of charity toward
those most pitiful victims of poverty, the hungry
babies of the slumS. If he invited to give his
services free, for nominal sum to promotion
intended entirely for charity he might do so. He
might but, his record, probably would not Mr..
Schmeling is not sentimental and his money flows
like granite.

Your Health
BY DR.. MORRIS FISHBEIN-

ONLY about 80 years have passed since accurate
Oand convenient methods were developed for
measuring boot pressure. Actually 1t was British
preacher interested in experiments who first meas
Ired blood pressure BY hitchng long glass tube to
a blood vessel in the neck of horse
Most persons with high blood pressure do not
realize it for a long time. because the condition
comes on so gradually and there are no serious
SYMPTOMS to call 1t to their attention
Sometimes indeed. the extra blood pressure
actually seems to be associated with lot more drive
and spirit than most persons have. This is par
ticuIaIiy the case when the pressure is associated
with extra activity of the thyroid gland. For this
reason most cases are discovered when the person
concerned happens to be applying for more life in
surance or for his first life insurance policy.
EUST because persons are likely to neglect meas
J. urements of the Flood pressure until some occa-
sion demands it, the medical profession has been
irving for long time to get them to go to their
doctors at least each year for complete physi-
cal examination which should always include this
measurement
Because persons incline to be sentimental in asso
citation with birthdays it has been suggested that
the examination take place each year on the birth
day.
Moreover the tissues should be examined. If
there is any sign of the necessity for it. X-Ray
studies should be made. The blood should be studied
and the cells counted with microscope.
Then. too the excretionS from the kidneys and
the bowels should be studied by all methods COM
monty used find out if there is sugar albumen
or pus in the urine or if there is mucus blood
the bowel eXcretlonS.
A examination of the blood pressure must be
n made every time a person goes to a doctor for
any condition affecting the body as a whole. This
means not only men and women past 40, but young
men and women entering college as well.
II means particularly the young woman about to
be married. For a young woman with H A. D."
hypertensIye arterial disease. to have a baby is
most serious matter. It may mean life or death
or course a competent doctor always will meas
sure her blood pressure if he finds she going to
have a baby. but Ec ought TO know about the blood
pressure long before that.

things can not answer the march
of the advancing machine.
I'VE must develop rural-urban
type of life for millions of our
people who are today crowded in
cities and suffering from unem-
ployment. Other millions must
find contentment and plenty in
purely rural communities.
1 believe all this to be true.
Our rural ancestors-the roman
tic pioneers we love to read and
hear about-were not true farmers
and lovers of the soil. They were
primarily land spectators.
New lands were new fortunes
for them. The perils and endless
hard work of frontier life made
them dream of the safety and
comforts of small town and city
life.
Tomorrow's pioneers will be
frontiermen on hard roads, with
electric lights and bathrooms and
power machinery and motor cars
and radios.
So it is that the beautiful land
of America gets a new chance to
win the hearts of men and women,
and make them truly love its
life-giving soil. 1t must become
the good earth-not the relent-
less, cruel toil-master.

American life. l had said that /
could not keep pessimism from
creeping into my view of America.
My host answered.:
Il have only great hope for this
country of ours. Since the earliest
age of man, scarcity has forced
the development of the acquisitive
sense. Necessity has developed
fear and greed. But there is no
longer scarcity.
"At last we know how to create
plenty for all-of food and houS-
ing and clothing and leisure and
enjoyment. We can not change
the nature of man, but we can
change the goal of life and the
symbols and measures of success.
There will be no need for piling
up fortunes. There will be plenty
for all.
And in hamlets and on farms,
in cities and ranches, stretching
all the way for washington, D. c.,

Northwest. have heard bits OF
this new American creed.

Waldman went to police to re-
new his complaint, met Cooper
there. They and police talked it
over. The police attempted to
rationalize and succeeded in calm
ing Waldman. He and Cooper left
together, parted in the street out
side. Cooper went on to his
delicatessen just as police arrived
to arrest Mrs. Waldman, who was
standing over the body of her
victim, declaiming her satisfaction
to the gathering curious.
A FTER her husband went to
"a police, Mrs. Waldman said
she had decided to take the mat
ter into her own hands. She
couldn't stand being witched any
longer. She wrote out, in semi
literate scrawl, the following
pledge:
It, Ida Rose, or Ida Cooper.
agree to release Mr.. and Mrs.
Waldman and his children and
family from the witchcraft I
have done till now and I'll never
do witchcraft to Waldman fam
lily any more all my life"
This she carried to Mrs. Cooper
and commanded her to sign. Mrs.
Cooper laughed. Mrs. Waldman
thought her laughter meant she
intended to redouble her bewitch-
ing. She took a pistol out of her
handbag and killed her.
Police looked into the past of
the CooperS, seeking some cause
for the Waldman's Authorizations.
Cooper. they found, was grazing
small business man of a widely
diffused type-poorly educated. but
sober. honest, and hard working.
His delicatessen, being in a poor
neighborhood. proved only a bare
livelihood But in Mrs. Cooper
they found some explanation.
n
MRS. COOPER, though neither
1V1 a mystical nor psychic type.
dabbled in the occult sciences.
She told fortunes to neighborhood
women with playing cards and
had crystal ball within whose
reflections, she claimed (police
could not learn if she believed she
saw images or knew she was a
charlatan), she could see into the
future.
The Waldmans had their for
tunes told, had Mrs. Cooper look
into her crystal for them. In 1912
Waldman had been impressed by
her Vaccinations and convinced
himself she was witch. Police
believed he succeeded in con-
vincing his wife. Mrs. Waldman
said they had covered all the win
dows and every glass surface in
their home because they feared
reflections from Mrs. Cooper's
crystal ball would creep in and
enable Mrs. Cooper to see them.
Mrs. Waldman said that at
times Mrs. Cooper became infuri-
ated and intensified her bewitch-
ments until they were unbearable.
