PRESIDENT IS HELD
WRONG ON FIGURES
Disagrees With Commerce Depart
ment. G. O. P. Committee
States.

BY the Associated Press.
The Republican National Committee
said Yesterday that figures quoted by
President Roosevelt in his Pittsburgh
speech disagreed with statistics OF
"your own Commerce Department"
A committee statement quoted the
President as saying the 1882 national
income was $4,000, 100000, whereas,
the committee said, the Commerce De-
partment showed the income was
$39, 9,545, 10000
Just s1,545 900, 900 more than you
said" the committee said. I'VE know
YOU are used to talking in big figures,
but that sounds like important money
to most Of us.
In the same paragraph Of the
speech you said in 1885 it (the national
income) was 53 billions
THAT was very close indeed. You
only boosted your own Department OF
Commences figures SAL ,000, 900 to get
that
But when you add the two figures
together to get the gain you were
trying to show, you indicated that
gain to be 81 ,586, 600, ,000-more than
1t actually was.
isn't it interesting that the error
In each case stretched the figure you
wanted to make 1t appear large. Mr.
President"

five children, during an argument. over
his landlords efforts to evict him from
his basement home at SO New York
avenue northeast Friday night.
The landlord, Donald K. Stanton, 81,
claims he shot in self-defense after
Childress threatened him with a
board. Childress' widow, Mrs. Ruth
Childress, told police, however, that
her husband only caught up the board
after Stanton drew Q gun.
Among witnesses summoned to the
inquest were Mrs. Childress and Mrs.
Stanton, who was in an adjoining
hallway when the shooting occurred,
police said. Other roomers at the
house also were to testify.
The death of Childress left his
22-year-old wife and five children

insurance or savings. His funeral to-
morrow will be provided by the under

CRIPPLES RESTORED

Among the many humanitarian activi-
ties which engage the support of bene-
VIOLENT societies and individuals, the re-
storing of crippled children to health and
happiness is one of the most commend
able
The work of modern surgeons in this
connection is effective almost beyond be-
lief. At a recent convention of the Inter-
national Society for Crippled Children it
was stated that modern science has healed
all manner of diseases and we are happy
to say today that practically every type of
malformation, if taken in early childhood,
can be cured.
Among the organizations which have
given special attention to crippled chill
dren, the Shriners have been particularly
active, each member of the order contribut-
ing regularly to the maintenance of homes
for these unfortunate little ones, who
would otherwise go through life with de-
formed bodies and limbs. Other societies
are doing similar service for humanity.
The hearty encouragement and sup
port of this labor of love should be extend
ed by every person who is in position
to lend a hand

CONGRATULATIONS, JUDGE!

A former actress gets some publicity
because she went to Jail instead of paying
500 fine imposed by a Judge" before
whom she appeared on a charge of adffv-
ing an automobile while her lieenses Was
under suspensfonyin consequence Of a prior
conviction for driving while under the in
fluence of liquor. =. II; 80
The lady makes light of the matter,
saying she is in Jail for the butcher and
grocer" because she wouldn't be able to
pay them if she paid the fine.
We think the publicity ought to go to
the judge, who sets his judicial conferees
a notable example in this day of fixing"
such charges through pull and influence
1t is not necessarily piece of news when
an actress goes to jail but when she is sent
to prison by a judge for violating traffic
laws is becomes important, even if only as
an example.

PROVING CIVILIZATION

If savage suddenly remarked to his
neighbors that a new comet was in the
sky, they would look upward without see
ing it. When he explained that he saw it
through a tube, fitted with glasses, they
would call the chief priest for the purpose
of preparing fire test If the astronomer
insisted that in three days, he would tell
them its size, where it travelled, when it
would be closest to the earth and that in
thirty days they could see it with o'their
eyes, the savages would probably burn
their companion alive .,-.4... ..;..-
Once we were like the savages. Now
adays, thanks to intelligence and general
appreciation of the sciences, such an
nOuncement causes little general interest
No one doubts the truth of the scientific
astronomers statement. Such discoveries
happen every year without comment or
terror on the part of the people.
Civilization, it would seem, is moving
forward. Progress can be seen when we
compare the attitude of primitive people
towards that of advanced people.
The moral is: Just because the papers
are filled with murder, divorce, scandal
and graft stories, don't forget that the
world and its people have improved and
are improving every day. ;,

RADIO SAVES LIFE

The radio has saved countless lives
by its ability to summon rescuing vessels
to ships in distress. Time and again the
letters IS. o. S." have turned boats aside
from their courses to succor other mariners
and passengers from death at the heads of
the perilS of the sea.
Equally spectacular in the quiet, reg
ular use of the radio to prescribe" for
sick persons on the smaller ships which do
not have doctors aboard A number of
lives have been prolonged by ships cap
tain following medical advice received
over the radio from physicians ashore
Recently a sailor badly gassed by
crude oil fumes was revived as a result of
a radio prescription. Another time a sea-
man suddenly taken with acute appen-
dicitis was transferred to larger vessel
with an operating room, and his life sal
vaged.
Medical advice via radio is only small
service of this wonderful means of COM
munication. 1t is one seldom heard of but
does great good, as it is estimated that
thousands of small vessels make regular
use of it.
