ting is good. 1t takes practically all
of the workers average income to
pay the grocer, butcher, baker and
clothing man for keeping body and
soul together. The insurance COM
panies get what savings, if any, this
group has. and they put it out on
mortgages to finance higher priced
homes.
People live in these blighted areas
because of necessity, not from
choice. We can either raise their
pay to the required amount to buy
new modern homes. or we must
bring the price down to their, in
come. Lending them money to pay
for something they can not pay for

SEES INDICATIONS OF
SOMETHING WRONG"

BY Norris 1. Swift
There are several different kinds
of greed and selfishness, all of
which blind the victims mind to
the condition of others. Every one
wants to get ahead of the other
person in the race of life. AS a
result, only the strong and wiser
ones are at the front These wise
ones are nearly all so blinded with
greed that they can not see the
fate that lies ahead for them in
the future
There are only 100000 people
unemployed, but there are many
more millions who are working for
nearly nothing and most of these
people can afford newspaper and
radio. These statesmen, small bust
ness men, doctors, and others, not
to mention the unemployed, come
home at night to get rest from
their days labor.
They try to get their worried

I IFE, says DR.. George w. Grille,
~ world-famous surgeon of Cleve-
land, is radio-electrlc process. He
sets forth his theory in detail in
his newest book, THE Phenomena
OF Life" published today.
Since the time of Aristotle biolo-
gistS have attempted to answer the
question, what is life? Few def1ni-
tons have done anything but Juggle
with words. For example, life is
the process Of living"
The question interested DR.. Grille
from the day he became an inferno
in Cleveland hospital in 1887.
That very day, young medical
student was brought into the hos
pital, his legs crushed in a street
car accident. The young inferno
watched him through the night as
he slowly died from shock.
Then and there DR.. Grille deter
mined to study what had brought
death to the young student. And so,
during the ensuing years, while
worldwide fame was coming to him
aS DrllIlant surgeon, Or. Grille con-
tinued his laboratory investigations
into the nature of life.

Grille made many important contri-
buttons. He performed the first di-

Something has been said about
forcing private property owners to
remove snow from sidewalks.
If you will take a walk down to
fire headquarters, you will see snow
and ice on New York and Alabama
SITS that has been there since the
first snow. I went past there the
other morning when there was
nothing but ice from the corner
down past the garage.
I came past there quite recently
and every bit of it was still there,
with beautiful coat of snow on
the ice. I would suggest that a po-
liceman be sent down there to tell
the boys about it.

any private property owner until
the city takes care of her own, is

IMMUN|zAT|0N
FROM POLIO
DISPUTED

Contrary to popular opinion
infantile paralysis can attack it,
victims q second time.
This revelation, which hi
claimed fatty contradictS the be
lief Of many physicians, came to
day from DR.. Simon Flexner
world-famous pathologist of the
Rockefeller Institute, in a speech
before the National Academy OF
Science.
The $50 members, gathered in
the academy's building at Twenty
first Street and Constitution Ave
nue. Northwest, heard the noted
scientist explain that at least a
dozen authentic cases Of sec.
ondary attacks of infantile paraly'
sis are known to him, and that
probably many victims mourning
such second attacks do not realize
it, because they are usually milder
than first attacks.
N4tCS Experiments
DR.. Flexner intimated that proof
of his contention can be found in
experiments conducted with mon
keys by the Rockefeller Institute
during the past three years.
Monkeys 1nnoculated with the
virus of polio-myelitiS Gnfantile
paralysis who contracted the dis
ease, the famous Savant declared,
could be reinnoculated and given
a second serious case of the dis
ease afterwards.
The reason why polio-myelitis,
unlike many other infectious ma1a-
dies which provide immunization
after a first attack. can be con-
tracted again, DR.. Flexner as
serted, is that the virus, in enter
ing the body, utilities q route in
which no anti-toxins are found.
The virus, he said, always enters
through the nose, and then travels
into the cerebro-spinal fluid by
means Of the nasal nerve. Bodies

Many of the monkeys used in
the Rockefeller Institute research
are not given a first case Of the
disease in testing them for a Sec
ond case, he declared. "Immuni-
zation," ordinarily built up by a
first case, is artificially created in
the laboratories by giving the
monkeys small doses Of the virus
in increasing quantities.
Although he did not make such
o statement, many in the audience
at the National Academy of Sci
ence, inferred from DR.. Flexner's
revelations that innoculations of

vanced by some physicians as a

 Economic Future.
 A congressional committee headed by Senator Willard F. Tydings of Maryland, co author of the bill, has just returned from the islands with recommendations which will probably provide material for study of their economic future. The bill calls for a conference on that subject one year before the commonwealth period ex- pires, but it is probable that this will take place at an earlier date.
 The final outcome, it is thought, will result in one of the following possi- bilities:
 (D Complete independence, exactly as proposed, which will involve (ac- cordng to most authorities) economic ruin and probable absorption of the Philippines by "an Oriental power"
 @ Independence. exchanging tariff preference to the islands for free en- try of American goods.
 (3) Dominion government of the is- lands, allowing them trade preference, cty ott to hnH to them.
 The islands are determined to have independence, complete and at any cost, according to Quezon, who has fought for it in diplomatic circles in this country for many years, served as president of the island senate since 1916, and will in all likelihood be it's first president.
 The dapper little diplomat, some- where about sixty years of age, ad. mitted that his nation was setting out on a great adventure and would prob- ably make mistakes.
 What nation does nOt?" he asked. "But we have been prepared for our adventure by great republic. We have trusted you in the past and have been rev arted for our trust. We have depended upon you and we have not been disappointed. We know that we can count upon you in the future."
