an encouraging one.
Actual Figures
The actual figures are-deaths in
New York City-for two compare
tive years:
Whooping Diph- Scarlet
Cough liberia Fever
1882 ....... 145 210 1874
1885 ....... 148 So 76
Prevention of whooping cough
may be possible. There is a serum
which was introduced several
years ago by DR.. Louis w. Sauer
It has been used quite extensively
by DR.. Park in New York school
children. Because it was too weak
at first it was not conspicuously
successful. But by increasing the
strength it was found that in 613
children who took the vaccine, only
IA per cent developed whooping
cough. In a control group of 1877
children who were not vaccinated,
2.S per cent developed the disease.
This record is far from good
enough to justify compulsory vac
cination. In fact, there is consid-
cradle doubt as to whether the real
organism for whooping cough has
been found. IF this is not the real
organism, there is no use giving
the vaccine at all. Since it does
no harm, however, and in view of
the real seriousness of the disease.
parents are justified in considering
it's use. With the experiments and
observations being conducted in
New York, it is probable that a
more potent vaccine will soon be
found.
At any rate the news is worth
emphasizing in order to call at
tention to the necessity Of regard
ing whooping cough with respect.
Too often it is regarded as HARM
less and minor ailment, even a sort
of a joke. The child should be care
fully guarded and watched. Per-
haps the most helpful thing that
can be done is to fit tight abdom-
inal binder. IF nothing else is
done this will minimize the dam
ger Of many complications.

ANDERSON GETTING
POWERFUL BACKING

Wv j. g. BASkER WILL
Raleigh, Nov. 9-Football fans who
say they know vouchsafe the infor-
nation that Coach Hunk Anderson is
sure to get another years trial at
State College and that he may get
three more.
With the tip comes another that so
well do Dick Reynolds of Winston
Salem, and Dave Clark, of Charlotte,
like the coaching of States head
trainer that Mr.. Reynolds may feel
moved to splice the stadium and
make a horseshoe that will seat "a
900 footballists. The certain over-sell-
out at Carolina for Saturdays game
with Duke renews the story that Will
liam Rand Kenan is again offering to
put an acre in his beautiful gift and
make it as big as Dukes playing field
which has some 10000 on the Tar
Heels present capacity.
News bearers do not pretend to
know that the authorities have acted
on the Anderson case. The disfavored
coach who lost a hard one to Carolina
has convinced the leaders that dis
sensions on the team have lost games
to their lesser rivals. Having Mr..
Reynolds about on a short season is
quite a break. State has had hard
competing attractions and the home
season closed before cool weather be-
gan.
AS for the Tar Heel constituency
it does not seem to wish for that
other 10000 seating, fearful that any
touches put upon that stadium will
mar its natural beauty. 1t was not
built for horseshoe shape and Dukes
was. But nobody living at the time
it was erected ever expected to see
either playing field filled, a spectacle
already beheld BY infants.

PLAN TO SPEND
S2OO,0OO,0OO

The steel industry will spend
approximately 5000, 100000 for
undermining equipment and for
new finishing capacity in 1885,
Walter s. Tower, executive secre-
tary of American Iron and Steel
Institute, said today in an address
before the California State Cham
ber of Commerce at Del Monte,
Cal. Mr.. Tower said:
"The expected outlay this year
compares with S140,OOO,00O in
1885. These expenditures will
add little or nothing to the
capacity of industry to produce
raw steel. Practically every dol.
lar is being spent to improve
methods of manufacture and to
make a better product for the
customer"
According to Mr.. Tower, employ
ment in the steel industry has
reached a figure approximating
the total number of employees in
the years of peak activity in 1928
and 1929. He said:
Under these circumstances 1t
seems clear that in its respOnsi.
bility for giving employment to
workers normally attached to it,
the industry has made a genuine
contribution to recovery.
The problem Of restoring the
industry to a profitable basis is
one Of great importance because
only when that has been solved
can there be any assurance Of
steady employment for the work.
ers, security for fair wages, or a
return to the induStry's half
million stockholders"
In order for there to be any
real recovery in the steel industry
there must be first a better volume
of business and second a reason
able degree of price stability at a
fair level Of prices, Mr.. Tower said.
