circles we're the repeated rumors
of the Princes engagement to
English girls of noble blood.
Lady Rachel Cavendish, Lady
May Cambridge, Lady Ann We'll
lesley, Lady Eileen Butler, Lady
Furness and the Countess Carrick
were among those mentioned in
recurrent rumors.
While the Prince was On hunt
ing trip to Africa, Lady Ann fell
i'll, and daily reports from her
bedside were radioed to him.
That lent strength to this re-
port, but as usual nothing came
of it. Lady Ann has since mar
ried.
THERE have been other Lon
Il don society women, of high
position but not of noble blood,
with whom the Prince has been
friendly for many years, but none
of these friendships has given rise
to any serious talk of royal mar
riage.
The Princes -and-easy
manner of dancing with whom
ever seized his fancy when on
parties has again and again
blossomed out in reams of news
paper stories, especially in Amer
lea.
At one time during 1926 he
danced frequently with Adele As
taire in London, and his dancing
with Irma Cherry in Biarritz in
1881, with Carolyn Cranberry at
Panama City in 1921, Eileen STAN
ley in New York the same year,
and Joyce Lindsey in New York in
1924 all brought their share of
open-mouthed comment from the
press.
To few commentators did it &C.
cur that the Prince was Just like
any other young mamie liked to
dance with pretty girls, and did so
on every convenient occasion. And
that was really all there was to
: that.
THE Prince has been especially
Il fortunate, too, in his FAM
lily associations, and his devotion
to his sister Mary, the only girl
in the royal family, and to little
Princess Elizabeth, daughter of
his favorite brother, Prince
George, is noteworthy.
The answer, among those who
know the Prince we'll, is simply
that he has been too busy to be-
come interested in and court
bride.
Having missed this experience
due to preoccupation with the war
during the years when he was
most likely to be drawn to it, he
launched into the period of post
war gaiety and latter day serious
ness without ever having had time
LOT marriage.
What seldom occurs to the senti-
mental is this-Edward may SIM
ply prefer the bachelor life, and
the competence and completeness
with which he has set up his
bachelor quarters and regime at
st. James Palace and Fort Belve-
deere suggest that this may be
true.
Whatever the inner reason, the
mere fact that the Prince has been
able to resist for so many years
the family and political pressure
put upon him to marry speaks VOL
un1es for his strength of will.
In this, as we'll as in other mat
tiers, he has been increasingly Ibis

Maverick of Texas the word can
be uttered with a straight
face.
Maverick is ruggedly individual
istic to the extent of actually be-
lieving in free speech for every
body. He stands in the direct line
of succession from Voltaire
through Thomas Jefferson. But he
is by no means quit of sectional
point of view and prejudice, and

Who's Noisy NOW?

"TNHESE Communist minded individuals, each
with certain more or less extensive follow
Ing who are blindly led because of lack of individual
intelligence and intellect and devoid of the very
necessary quality of being able to think and de-
termine things for themselves, form an ever-groW-
ing, highly organized, vociferous minority that is
wholly misrepresentation of public opinion but
carries weight because of its blatant noisiness"
If this means anything at all it is endeavoring
to say that there is no right of minority opinion
and that free speech should be suppressed by those
in power In day when the district attorney in
New York City is endeavoring to suppress free press
and vigilantes throughout the country waiting
the world to go, the doctrine of the Nays neo-
blackshirts is indeed subversive.

A WOMAN'S VIEWPOINT
BY Mrs. Walter Ferguson

Usually dislike fisticuffs. But the other night
~ had the time OF my life watching man
sock another. It happened like this:
A group of six, three men and three women were
coming out of hotel Their car was drawn up to
the curb and the owner, who was pie-eyed went
staggering toward it, evidently with the intention of
getting behind the wheel.
Gentle protests, mere polite murmurs came from
the women. I'll drive, Bill" said one of the men
who appeared to be sober but would Bill hear to
driver and going to prove it. Neither arguments
pleas threats could move him. So just as he was
climbing in, pal reached over and gave him blow
on the head Bill was out The last saw of him. he
was bundled into the back seat, sleeping or uncon-
scious.
Now even if such procedure isn't polite, it ought
to become habit with sober individuals OF course
the etquet books do not advocate knocking cut the
host after he has bought you dinner, but common
sense does when he's drunk and refuses to listen to
reason
1t isn't intelligent for bunch of sane people to
get obediently into automobile while some half
drunken man woman takes the wheel Yet it's done
every day We're afraid weT be thought rude if we
make scene. The bunch may feel we're not good
sports, or are afraid to take a chance
We take guns away from men who point them
at US; we snatch poison from the hands of suicide
maniacs; and if some one rushes toward us with an
open knife. we as fast as possible in the opno
site direction. But when it comes to the automobile
slayer we step right up for slaughter In this
the sober passenger is as big a criminel as the
drunken driver AS the lawyers say he's an accessory
before the fact.

Health
By
DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN

.VTITAAIIN D is called the SUM
v shine vitamin,' and very apt
name it is. Supplying health-giv-
ing benefits of solar rays, it has
frightened the lives Of thousands
of youngsters, helping them to
build straight, sturdy bodies.
Long before anything was known
about vitamins, it was found that
cod liver oil was good for children
with the weakening ailment,
ricketts,. In 1923, scientists learned
that one substance in cod liver oil
was responsible.
At one time-before there was
such a thing as window glass, and
before people began herding to-
gether in sunless slumS-ricketS
was not a common disease. But
overcrowding and industrialization
began and, in Great Britain, rick
cts became so prevalent it was
dubbed the English disease"
Failure of growing bones to abb
serb calcium and phosphorus as
calcium phosphate brings about the
disease. The bones bend and bow
legs appear. The ribs puff out and
become beaded at the ends. A
pot belly" is not an unusual symp-
tom.
BECAUSE the mucous membranes
ID and other tissues of the body
are affected, the afflicted child de-
velops snuffles.
Today We know that vitanlin D
is most important in the treatment
of ricketts,. And it may be absorbed
into the body in any one of several
ways.
Irradiation by the short or in
visible rays of the sun, causing the
body to develop its own vitamin D.
is one way. Ultraviolet rays, de-
veloped artificially from carbon
arc or mercury vapor quartz lamp,
has similar effect.
These same rays may be permits
ted to act on a chemical substances
called ergosterol, producing con-
centrate of vitamin D, which, in
turn, may be added to milk. Food
may be irradiated and develop vi
tamin D out of its own chemical
content, or COWS may be fed IRA
dated yeast and give milk con-
tanning vitamin D. And, of course,
cod liver or other fish oils rich in
vitamin D may be taken.
Remember, however, that in addi-
ton to this valuable vitamin, the
growing body should have enough
calcium and phosphorus in the diet
to aid in formation of bones and
teeth, process which, incidentally,
needs proper action of the parathy-
roid glands.

EXPLAINS BEECH GROVE

BY Homesteader
AS a member of the National
Homestead Society of America, Inc,
would like to explain a few details
of our Beech Grove movement.
Some people believe this is a
clearing project, which it is not.
The applicants for these homes
come from most every industry in
the city. They are the class of peo-
pie which want to buy homes and
enjoy the better things in life, but
due to financial difficulties have
found it impossible to save the
needed 20 per cent down payment
and to meet the $35 or $45 monthly
payment.
We are not asking the government
to give us anything. We are simply
asking the necessary loan to finance
the building Of these homes at the
established government rate of 3k
per cent interest.
The interest is to be included in
the monthly payment of $12.55 to
Sl5 depending on the size of house
required.

the--2 homes is put on probation for
one year. If at the end of that

On the Bonus
F., Franklin Star.I

The action of Congress in voting
to pay the two billion dollar soldiar
bonus without making any provision
for raising the money is comparable
to the action of a church board with
a bare treasury voting to pay new
minister a salary of $4,000 year
without knowing where the salary is
coming from.
This two billions viii eventually
come from the taxpayers just as the
pastors salary eventually would
como from the church members. In
both cases note may be given as
q temporary measure but the note
only postpones the eyil day.

ASKS HOW CONSUMER
is TO GET REFUND

BY Benjamin A. Osborne
Now that the United States Su-
preme Court has declared the AAA
unconstitutional, several manufac-
turers, are filing suits to recover
taxes.
What I want to know is, by what
procedure of economic thought does
the manufacturer figure that he is
entitled to a refund when he has
passed this tax on to the consumer?
If the manufacturers win (and
hope they don't) must the consum-
err sue the manufacture for a re-
fund?
Knowing that the consumer does
not get receipt for the bread, but
ter, eggs, meat, ETC., that he buys,
what can the consumer do to stop
these manufacturers from trying to
collect what rightfully belongs to
the consumer?
The manufacturer certainly has
no intention of giving back to the
consumer any of this tax.
Will appreciate an opinion.

in addition to checking and report

The possibilities for raising the

Many old persons who may
qualify under the plan will require
assistance from some disinterested

TODAY'S SCIENCE
BY DAVID DIETZ

MYTH the aid of a cosmic ray
wv meter, DR.. Arthur H. Comp
ton hopes to prove whether or not
we are all riding upon a cosnnic car
rousel.
Astronomers have concluded in
recent years that our galaxy of
Milky Way of some 100000, 900 900
stars is gigantic merry-go-round,
revolving around a center which is
located in the dense star clouds Of
the constellation of Sagitarius.
Our own sun, situated in the So
called local cloud" is about $4,000
light years from this center. "a
light year is six trillion miles.) Tt
has been calculated by Linblad and
Oort that our sun is swinging
around this center at a speed of 100
miles a second. AS inhabitants of
the earth, we share in this terrific
speed of the sun, carried along with
the sun because of its gravitational
hold upon the earth.
To test this theory, DR.. Compton
will take his cosmic ray machine
upon journey from Vancouver.
Canada, to Sidney, Australia.
DR. COMPTON, who is profess
IL sor of physics at the Umver-
sity of Chicago, Nobel prize VIM
ner, and one of the worlds chief
authorities upon cosmic rays, ex-
poets an affirmative answer to the
test.
The journey, incidentally, serves
to signalize that cosmic rays have
now entered upon the second phase
of their history. The question Of
their nature is now settled and the
rays can be used as tools to investl-
gate other questions concerning the
universe.
The reasons for DR.. Comptons
journey are as follows: If the cos
mic rays come from beyond the
Milky Way, and if the Milky Way
is in rotation, then two things
should occur.
First, there should be variation
in cosnic ray intensities around the
"a hours, based on sidereal time or
"Star time"
Secondly, there should be
greater intensity of cosmic rays in
the Northern Hemisphere.
