Although one individual in a thou
sand may succeed in amassing
wealth for himself, it is impossible
for everybody to be rich as an en-
ployer, landlords, investor or cap
italist so long as each is trying to
buy cheap and sell dear.
Therefore, any policy which fos-
tiers and encourages greed, sharp
practices and selfishness amongst
the members of group is anti-pa-
triotic because it endangers the ex-
iStence of the entire group. "a
house divided against itself can not
stand" said Abraham Lincoln.
Now. I have the honor to be a
member of a group of about 1885,
100000 called the United States OF
America. Would anybody dare deny
that during the last six year the
people of this country have expert
enced the Severest economic crisis
in history?
Was it the original object and
intent of the founders of this re-
public to transmit to us conditions
which force millions of men and
women into lives CT vagabondage
degradation and misery; deprive
millions of people of employment;
close hundreds of thousands of in
dustrial establishments; destroy
markets for hundreds of millions oil
dollars worth of goods and deprive
millions of people of money? Is il
patriotic to witness such conditions
with sheer apathy and indifference
and to brand a person as a lunatit
or Communist when he dares sug-
gest some remedy?

DESCRIBES QUALITIES THAT
MAKE PATRIOTS

BY David Horn.
Patriotism is nothing more nor
less than loyalty and fidelity to
that group of which one happens to
be a member. Patriotism began
many hundreds of thousands OF
years ago when our ancestors real
lied that each man, woman and
child was safer and was more like
" to get enough to eat by being a
member of a herd than by living i'll
individual isolation. Loyalty to the
entire group and obedience to It's
rules and customs were demanded
from each individual for the protec-
ton he enjoyed.
A real patriot places the interests
of the entire group over his own
interests because he knows that his
own security and future welfare and
that of his own children and poster
ity are far more certain under con-
ditions which equally afford the
largest available measure of happi-
ness and prosperity to all of his
fellow countrymen.
A real patriot does not center his
thoughts and efforts in devising
schemes of enriching himself at
| the expense of his fellow-citizens

Health
By
DIR. MORRIS FIsFBEIN

VOU may recall the Juror that
arose some time age about the
use of aluminium pots fnr cooking,
and their effect on the human sys-
tenn. The claim was made that foods
cooked in such pots would absorb
some of the metal, which would be
dangerous 10 the body.
There is no cause to be concerned
about this. The tiny amount OF met
al that is dissolved in the food has
been found to be harmless, and IN
some instances it actually may be
beneficial. And that is true not only
of aluminium utensils, but those OF
copper, iron and tin.
The point is that these metals
and others are present in the hui
man body in minute amounts, and
that they serve a distinct purpose.
Copper, for instance. is needed with
iron so best results may be had
from the iron.
FOODS that contain fair amounts
L of this metal include oysters,
beef liver, mushrooms, currants,
split peas, pork and lobster.
If your daily diet contains occa-
sional amounts of these substances,
you will get the copper that you Or
dinarily need. Sick persons, of
course, may require extra amounts
of such foods, and these should be
prescribed by the doctor
Manganese is another important
metal. Foods that contain it are
blueberries, whole wheat, split peas,
navy beans, chocolate, beet greens,
bananas, kidney beans and chard.
NTHER metals, found in smaller
" amounts in the body. are chro-
MUM, tin, silver, aluminium, CO.
bait and nickel. Many of these are
to be found in milk and in various
vegetables. Ordinary amounts of
these metals, when taken into the
body, are promptly eliminated
through the inteStines.
One of the most dangerous met
ais is lead. This may be taken into
the body through beans, apples,
cherries, sauSages and other foods.
Meat sometimes contains lead, due
to the fact that cattle may have
licked newly painted surfaces.
Grapejuice, also. may contain
lead, if the grapes have been
sprayed with lead arsenate.
A physician has estimated that
the average person takes in from
one-fifth to one-half Of a thou
sandth of a gram of lead, and gets
rid of the same amount, every day.
In this quantity, lead is not harm

ACTION OBTAINED

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, July II.
-UP).-Halle Cohen, head of
Jacksonville's largest department
store, resigned yesterday as fore
man of a grand jury which has
been investigating election fraud
charges here for three weeks.
Cohen told newsmen last week
that he would resign unless I can
get some action" on evidence of
fraud thus far produced.
He handed his resignation to
Judge Dewitt Gray yesterday af-
ternoon when the jury indicted a
negro for murder and adjourned
without mentioning fraud. The
judge accepted the resignation
with "regret."
In a communication with the
resignation, Cohen said the jury
service was affecting his health
and he expected to be called out
of the city shortly.
The jury had questioned wit
nesses for two wards where a re-
count showed alleged fraudulent
ly marked ballots and where 18
ballots had been found tossed in
sewer.

Piedmont Cotton,
Tobacco Crops
Declared Ruined
Fields Powdery After AL
ternate Drouth and
Drenchings

WILSON, July 17.-CUP)-An
eastern North Carolina farmer
stood in the powdery dust of his
fields, looked out across the un-
even rows of cotton and tobacco,
and said his crops were not worth
five cents.
The farmers who plant cotton
and tobacco in the Piedmont and
coalstal lands Of North Carolina
are facing one of the most seri-
Gus situations in years. Nature,
they say, has been unkind. Their
crops are ruined.
J Too much dry weather g..
they prayed for rain, not too
much rain, but just enough to
make their cotton and tobacco
grow into money. Came rain . &.
too much rain drowned their
tobacco. Then more dry weather
. burned their tobacco and cot
ton to shreds.
Then everything happened.
Pests Cotton lice in droves
spread over the fields in every
cotton-growing county in the
state. Then came grasshoppers.
Blue mold took hand ruined
tobacco some more. Wet weather
grass drowned all the crops.
! Whole fields of tobacco turned
yellow from the heat. Other fields
lay plowed up weeks ago
small tobacco plants grew in them
but hail came and beat them
back into the earth.
Said Farm Agent w. l.. Adams,
of Wilson county:
"Forty families in the county
have no crops at all because of
hail and wind and rain" '..
Farm agents from various coun-
ties said that the entire tobacco
crop in this section will be off As
per cent. Tobacco production will
be around 55 per cent of the usu-
al base for 1886, they said.
Your eyes have to be good and
farseeing to find an even row Of
cotton or tobacco. There are no
cotton or tobacco stands this
year.
The farmers are weary and
worried but not beaten.
They're depending on the Unit
ed States government soil conser-
walton program to pull them thru
despite loss of their tobacco and
cotton.
All they have to do is grow the
feed and food crops the govern
ment says grow to take care OF
their sustenance for another year.
The government payments for re-
duction of their cotton and tobac-
co crops will tide them over.
Tobacconists here say Wilson
icounty's usual 26,000,000 tobac-
co poundage will be cut to SIS per
cent by the heat and rain. Tobac-
co that brought $500 to $500 an
acre last year won't bring more
than $50 an acre this year on the
same land, farm agents say.

AVIATORPLANS'
PARIS-DALLAS.
NONSTOP HOP
Clyde Pangborn Only Liy-
ing Round World Flyer
Is Perfecting Plans
By JAY WELLS
United Press Staff Correspondent

DALLAS, Tex, July II. (UP).
Clyde Pangborn. the only aviator
now living who ever piloted a
plane around the world, is per-
fecting plans for another amDl-
tious flying venture = fhght
from Dallas to New York and
Paris, and then a nonstop return
from Paris to Dallas.
Should the Paris-Dallas flight
be successful, it will mark one of
the few successful westward
transatlantic flights to the Uni
ted States and will set new dis
lance record.
Pangborn will be accompanied
on the trip by Monty Mason, Los
Angeles aircraft manufacturer
and designer of the queer-looking
red plane known as 1.-The Flying
Wing"
Pangborn and Mason, who are
flying under the sponsorship OF
the Texas Centennial Exposition
and with the financial backing OF
Roland w. Richards, Los Angeles
banker, plan to leave Dallas July
|18. After installing radio COM
pass, they planned to take off from
New York for Paris about July
I25.
Their plane was christened
"Texas Sky Ranger" in recent
ceremonies here. Miss Frances
Male, Bluebonnet Girl of the
Texas Centennial, christened the
plane by breaking a bottle OF
Trinity River water on its pro-
pellor, while Mayor George Ser
geant of Dallas and numerous
Texas celebrities looked on.
As representatives Of the Texas
Centennial, Pangborn and Mason
plan to visit several European
capitals, including London, AM
sterdam, Madrid and Brussels.
Giving a commercial aspect to
the flight, they will carry about
1900 pounds of mail for the
benefit of stamp collectors.
Their plane called "The Flying
Wing" from it's unique design,
was designed specifically for dis
lance flying. A single.motored
craft. it has virtually no fuselage,
It is only S2 feet long, but has a
Widespread of 55 feet six inches.
1t carries 1,156 gallons of gaso-
line, has a maximum speed OF 245
miles an hour, and is calculated to
be able to make $500 miles with
out refueling.
Of the three men who have
piloted planes on mountaineering
flights, Pangborn is the only one
living. Wiley Post was killed when
the plane in which he and wan
Rogers were travelling crashed IN
Alaska. Sir Charles Kingsford-
Smith, the Australian round-the-
world fiier, was lost while Tying
over the Indian ocean.
Pangborn flew around the world
with Hugh Herndon as his naVl-
gator in 1881. His trip met added
difficulties when he was arrested
in Japan and charged with being
a spy. He was acquitted on the
so charges at the end of six-day
trial,
