Relief as relief" stops throughout Texas on Thurs

the practical difference between paying relief clients
outright relief money and paying them wages to work

that's the way In which the care OF our employable
relief population win be carried out In the future.
As the county relief units are disbanded and their
offices closed, It In not amlss to express to the county
relief administration committees OF the Valley and
to the county relief administrators. the sincere ap-
probation felt by the citizens Of their respective

realize that these committees have labored faithfully

campaign OF July, 1884. a candidate for sheriff. later
defeated. took occasion to severely criticize the then
sheriff, q candidate for reelection, for having placed

Hot - One feature Of the opposi-

mediately ordered Senator Tom
Connally OF Texas to eliminate the

incident shows how the anti-Roose-
veltians stepped on presidential and
vice-presidential toes.
It seems that eight states permit
owners Of community property, like
husband and wife, to file separate
returns. Thus they reduce the pay
ment on their Joint holdings. In
the past Uncle Sam has acquiesced
In this system. But In an effort to
obtain greater revenue the senate
finance committee required q joint
return They didn't realize - or

taxpayers In Texas, Louisiana, Ariz-
ona, New Mexico, Idaho, Nevada,
California and washington.

without consulting the White House.
But 1t Is known that the president

Since their inception, many years ago, the progress
OF the Port Isabel-San Benito and Brownsville
Navigation districts has been steady and sure. At
times 1t has seemed that the forward movement was
practically imperceptible, but the progress has been
there all Of the time. and now Port Isabel has a port
and the Brownsville port is in the making.
The one thing that has enabled these two dis
tricts to proceed with the work for which they wee
formed has been the ability Of the voters Of the two
districts to disassociate partisan politics from the
operations Of the districts.
No opposition to the board OF commissioners Of the
Port Isabel-San Benito district has ever been shown
nc any election Only once has the Brownsville board
been faced with opposition, and in that election the
voters decided by an overwhelming majority that
they wanted the Brownsville port built, which was the
question at issue.
It VIII be for the decided best interests OF both
ports and Of the Valley generally II this fine atti-
tude can be continued throughout the years. operat-
ing n deep water port is a business proposition and
should be kept strictly within the realms Of business
and out Of the realms Of politics.
History OF Gulf ports In Texas is fun OF tragic mis-
takes that have wrecked many Of them TO the ad-
vantage Of competing harbors.
We are told. for example. that Beaumont's port.
delivered by the politicians into a political row every
10 often. has lost and Is losing business every day TO
Port Arthur. Beaumont is but one shining example Of
what happens when ports get mixed with politics.
Other examples are at hand Of falling and sickly
ports. and In almost every instance the cause OF
their failure may be placed ut the door Of partisan
politics.
The Port Of Houston has been kept out Of politics
and every one knows to what extent that port has
become one OF the greatest In the nation.
IL An well 10 consider these things. Not that there
are any signs OF either Of the Valleys ports being
thrown into q political turmoil, but that It Is wise to
ponder over the matter 80 that II such q spirit should
become manifest, It may be promptly s~quelched.

Physicians Practice
What They Prescribe

By DIR. III FIsHBEIN

and Of Hygeia. the Health Magazine
Right now your hygienic adviser is enjoying q cruise
to Nassau, in the Bahamas; Kingston, Jamaica; Trim
idad, Caracas, and Brazil. There are some hundreds
Of doctors ON the boat representing q great many Of
the different s~pecialties Of medicine.
1t Is interesting to see how they conduct themselves
under the circumstances. The weather has been
clear and warm and the old Atlantic well nigh as
smooth ms glass; there is no seasickness OF importance.
If the old ocean does kick up and any one gets sea-
sick there are q lot Of remedies for 1t. The trouble
Is that there are too many remedies.
This means that not one OF them Is certain in the
same way that q good cathartic Is sure to get re-
suits. Some Of the seasickness remedies are plan
ned to dry I'D the s~ecretions. Some or just seda-
tives Of the nervous system. Some are planned to
stimulate the s~ecretions.
Others are Just means Of enhancing the power Of
suggestion. Some are mechanical, such as wearing
a tight belt or putting cotton In the ears. These. too.
probably do nothing more than make the person
who is going to get seasick think he Is suffering less
than he really Il.
All the doctors have become worshippers Of the
great sun. They spend lots Of time on the sun deck
and sports deck and they choose their sports &C
cording to their ages.
A great heart specialist and O great lung special
LIST try their hands at shufneboard and studiously
avoid deck tennis. A doctor with some muscular
rheumatism smuses himself on m outdoor deck
putting green.
The young fellows from 40 to Is years Of age are
to be found in the winning pool; they toss the med
icine ball and they play table tennis. which have turns
ed out to be mighty fast indeed.
Then the oldsters who look back on some 81 TO 70
years 60 round and round the deck. walking about o
mile daily in the open air.
At the table on ~shipboard the doctors are unusu-
ally sparing. The dining-room steward figures he
Is going to show @ fine balance sheet ct the end Of
the voyage.
No doubt the doctors eat less because it Is hot. and
In hot weather the body does not require as many
carbohydrate calories for warmth. They do eat plenty
Of fresh fruit juices.
The physicians seem to have cut down on meat
and the potatoes, which are rich In starch, and
might about as well be left off the menu.
