sometimes severe with him. He was too good to be

complain

to be war.
He was a gambler. 1t was the

Your He aIth
by DIR. MORRIS FIsHBEIN-

WHEN you have feeling you're falling, what
w do you think about? You may be acquainted
with the saying that a whole life passes before
person during his drop from height. Well, how
would you reconcile that with the other belief that
a person who is falling from a height loses conSci
BUSINESS after he has dropped about 100 feet, or
the idea that death occurs before the ground is
reached?
Recently it occurred to Harry G. Armstrong of
the United States Army Medical Corps to make an
actual test and get frst-hand the sensations that
pass before the mind of a person who falls from
height.
TIE went up in airplane to a height of 2200
feet and jumped. He made careful note of his
mental and physical reactions and sensations until
he reached a height of about 1000 feet, before he
pulled the rip cord of his parachute,
In his report, Capt. Armstrong points out that
his two main mental factors were fear and excite
ment. The fear was not only the instructive fear
of falling, but also the fear that the parachute
might catch on the arpane or that the parachute
might be defective
The excitement natural AS he stood on the
arpane ready to jump he impressed with the
of the motor the sight of the ground below,
the of the wind past his head.
4 FTER he jumped he quite conscious of
4 everything that going on. He did not hear
anything after the jump, probably due to the rush
of air past his ears. He was not dizzy and had no
feeling of fanting. His breathing not disturbed
The only abnormal sensation he felt was the
pressure on the body from the air as he fell He
was quite able recognize his position in space and
to realize that his body turning over he fell

Ten million acres were removed
from production by the first ad-
justment program in 1888, when
blowing under prevented a record
crop that might have added 4,O0O,-
600 bales to the burdansome
American surplus.
The 1884 program restricted
cooperating planters to 38 per
cent of their base acreage. Con-
tinuance of the adjustment pro-
gram is expected to reduce the
carry-over to 100000 bales by
next Aug. I.
But since in addition to the
carry-oVer the Federal govern
ment is holding 4,500000 bales on
which the Commodity Credit Corp.
made 12-cent loans, and a new
policy of 10-cent loans plus a
maximum 2-cent cash bounty is
in operation, the surplus picture
is not so bright as the figures
might indicate
The loan policy, which turned
out to be form Of price fixing, is
credited with causing further loss
of exports and has brought much
criticism to the Administration
1t was forced through the White
House by Southern Senators and
Congressman over the opposition
of AAA officials and Secretary of
Agriculture Wallace.
Another source of constant crit
icism of the governmental policy
is, of course, the cotton textile
manufacturers, who pay the
processing tax that makes the crop
curtailment subsidy possible. Ship
pers and other handlers, who pros
per when large crops are moving,
likewise complain.
DUT the planters generally like
- the idea of AAA adjustments,
of the Bankhead Law, which puts
a penalty tax on all production
over quotas, and particularly the
cash loans.
The whole purpose of curtail-
ment was to increase prices and
here is how the cotton farmers
have Jared:
The average farm price of cot
ton was 81 cents pound in 1881
80, 6.5 cents for the 1928 crop,
81 cents in 1884, and was esti-
mated at 1875 cents for the 1934-35
crop. However, since the 12-cent
loan was replaced with the 10
cent loan plus 2-cent bounty, spot
cotton has been selling at 10.5
cents and under0
Farm value Of the 1933-34 crop
was s717000,000, compared with
S403, $4,000 for the preceding year.
For the 193435 crop it was esti-
mated at S756, 100000.
These increased prices are only
part Of the reason why the plant
ers feel more prosperous.
When rental and benefit pay
ments and SO on are added, the
gross return from the 1893 ia crop
was approximately s880,097, 600
up about 81 per cent from the val
ue of the 1928 cotton crop.
For the l934-35 crop the gross
return was estimated at S371 ,420,-
600 on Dec. l. 1884, but AAA Ad-
ministrator Davis has since pre-
dicted it will reach a billion dol

Il The old American spirit of
adventurous, independent pioneer
ing is on picturesque display in
the southern anthracite regions Of
eastern Pennsylvania, where up
wards of 10000 men are support
ing their families by bootlegging
coal.
Bootlegging, the ill-odored term
of prohibition days, has come to
be almost respectable word
when applied to Woodworking
men digging in dark holes for an
average of 81 day to keep them
selves off relief rolls, or to supple
ment the meager public dole.
They are stealing corporation
coal. In the eyes of the law, they
are thieves. But nothing is done
about it. Public opinion sup
ports them. Business men, pro-
feSsional men, merchants-even
manifestations the theft. Pub
lie officials, local and state, avert
their eyes.
= =
These men are not anarchists.
i The most violent radicalism
among them is a mild Socialism.
Communism has struggled vainly
for a foothold. But these men
are convinced that something is
wrong with an economic system
that has thrown them out of jobs.
They are looking for some off,
cial source of power that will
place them again within the law.
For a period their gaze was on
Washington. 1t is beginning to
shift their again.
Compc5ent witnesses agree. and
a government commission of in
quiry has so reported. that these
problems are only in part de-
preSsion-made End remedial
measures must LOOK beyond the
recovery of general business con-
ditions."
The men. the $4,000 to $4,000

cure. Give them jobs, they say,

to 100000 in 1929. With the
depression, production dropped
still more sharply and in 1888 was
less than 100000 tons.
"The depression decline was
due to the inroads of competitive
tuels-oil, gas, coke, etc.
The production decline meant
a roughly similar decline in work
opportunities. However, it was
by no means spread evenly over
the whole region.
In the effort to secure the
greatest efficiency of operation,
operating companies with several
collieries were naturally tempted
to close their high-cost operations
and secure their diminished out
put from the low-cost ones"
EVERYBODY up here-even the
II bootleggers-seems to agree
with the government report that
the temptation was natural. ANY,
way, the companies yielded.
They built huge centralized COL
lieries in places where their en-
gineers said the cream of the
coal was to be found. They
equipped them with modern labor
saving devices. For every labor
saving device that was installed,
a dozen or hundred men were
told they need not report the
next morning.
That is why, on a thousand
hills, queer toy tipples rear Graz
lily over rabbit holes, with men
misunderstanding 40 or so feet
below, prying from the coal seams
the black diamonds that will bring
them maybe 81 day.
THAT is why the papers in the
Il region print as routine such
items as this:
