OF Detroit to come to the jail and listen to u sermon
by one Of his prisoners. This prisoner, he said, had
seen the error Of his ways and had ~repented. and was
reading the Bible daily; he could give a very up
lifting little talk on the advisabiity Of stunning the
ways OF crime.
All OF this might have been all right, If 1t hadn't
turned out that the r~epentant sinner was William
Lee Ferris, q confessed panderer and slayer, who Is
awaiting trial on charges Of having slain the nephew
Of Charles Evans Hughes.
Somehow. the stunt didn't appeal to Detroit.

Omit from your daily diet any one Of a number OF
substances that you may think are inconsequential.
and your Life may be profoundly disordered as a result.
Add certain appropriate foods, even though the
diet otherwise may seem to be entirely satisfactory,
and your life may be greatly improved.
This important fact was brought out recently when
DR.. James S. McLester. in his presidential address
before the American Medical Association. prophesied
that mans place in future history wiz depend in no
small degree on the food he eats.
improvement OF man and OF animals has already
been established as possible by improvement Of the
diet.
For instance the children Of immigrants to the
United States are Of a finer stock physically than are
their ancestors. Chinese living under improved food
conditions in Hawaii grow larger than people Of the
same racial strain in China.
From Japan comes the report that, when groups Of
children in Tokyo we're given milk as a supplement to
their diets, there was observed not only an increase
In their weight and height but the children were more
cheerful and happy and turned in better records
than those who did not receive the additional milk.
DR.. Lester emphasized particularly the Importance
Of educating people properly in the subject OF diet,
Much Of our malnutrition comes from unenlightened
selection OF foods made by mothers who have TO re-
strict the budget for food TO greatly.
1T is unfortunate" says Doctor Lester. that many
OF the cheaper foods such as tie potato, which carry
the greatest number Of Galleries and have the great
est safety value. fall far short Of providing In SUI
ficient quantities such essential food factors rs vi
tamins, minerals and good proteins.
Vitamins and minerals can be obtained in album
dance in fruits and vegetables. while proteins Of high
biologic value are found In meats, eggs and milk; but
these are all among the more costly foods"
It Is important, therefore. In selecting foods to be
certain that you do not pay more for foods Of lesser
food value.
Most Of our diets are still determined by the habits
Of our ancestors. II the food habits Of any group Of
people are faulty because OF preJudices, a gradual de-
terioration Of that group Of people will occur.
It Is not possible. however, to select a suitable diet
on the basis Of p~rejudices. II must be selected on an
exact knowledge Of the constituents in foods concern
ed and their values In the human diet.

Attempt Citrus Price Sterilization

Citrus shippers Of the Valley, including the CO.
operatives and the independents. are making a
serious effort TO stabilize the industry at least to the
extent that uniform quotations on Valley shipments
win prevail during the coming season.
The effort is most certainly deserving OF all the
support that can be mustered. One Of the most
damning practices OF past seasons has been the GUS
tom Of price cutting just when the market seemed
to be stabilized at a decent price.
II. through the formation OF some sort Of a clear
ing house association, this Ill can be cured, we will
at least be on our way out OF the wilderness.
1t should be emphasized, however. that the mere
formation OF such an association with It's uniform
price quotations, win not do the trick. A majority
OF Valley shippers may Join the association and
conscientiously abide by its rules and regulations, but
their efforts viii go for naught II Just four or five
stay on the outside and persist In practices which
have ruined the market In past years.
Again, Just one or two dissatisfied shipper members
OF the association. who kick over the traces at the
first opportunity, viii wreck the entire deal.
All this is written assuming that subcommittee in
charge will be able to outline the framework Of an
organization that will be able to pass the scrutiny
Of hose in charge Of enforcing the antitrust laws Of
the nation.
The Brownsville Herald would not appear pessi-
mistic regarding the chances for success Of this or
any other proposed program designed to help the
citrus industry.
But we do feel that until the citrus and vegetable
ahipping industry OF the Valley is placed on q high
or plane than now prevails, all efforts at stabiliza-
ton OF price and grade are going to prove f~ruitless.
Records OF the past year show that upwards Of 500
firms and individuals engaged in shipping citrus
last season. At least 500 Of these firms should be
eliminated from the business and would be elimin-
ated If a shippers bonding and licensing bill were
passed by the Texas legislature.
The reasons for such a bin are multiple and need
not be gone into here. It is sufficient to say that
the forcing OF any shipper OF citrus fruit to post q
bond OF 5000 to insure fair dealings with the pro-
ducers Of the fruit will eliminate four or five hun
bred shippers now in the business because they can
not make the bond. Certainly a firm that cannot
make a bond Of that amount has no business deal
ing in any part Of q three million or more dollar
crop.
So, we wish all success and promise all backing TO
any clearing house association that may be formed.
but-we still insist that this bonding and licensing
bill must be passed before there is any chance Of
success for such an organization.

To Pay For Accidents

Insurance commissioners OF America, converting In
Seattle, are told by Insurance Superintendent r. l.
Foster Of Ontario that every motorist In America
should be required to indemnify possible victims be-
fore being granted a drivers license.
Every m~otorist. says the Canadian authority, should
be absolutely financially responsible to innocent VIC
Tins Of his negligence. Traffic hazards are 50 great.
ne adds, that some such step as this Is necessary for
public protection.
Ones first reaction to the idea is that It would be
a swell thing for the insurance companies. Never
theless, it has much to recommend It. The least the
innocent bystander has a right TO expect Is that. II
