Than Revival of Religion"

undertake this kind Of project In
neighborliness. I should like to see
associations of good neighbors in every
town and city and in every rural COM
munity of our land. Such associations
of sincere citizens hke-minded as to
the underlying principles and ideals
would reach across the lines of creed
or of economic status. 1t would bring
together men and women of all sta
tions to share their problems and
their hopes and to discover ways of
mutual and neighborly helpfulness.
Here, perhaps. is a way to pool our
spiritual resources: to find common
ground on which all of us of all faiths
can stand; and thence to move for
ward as men and women concerned
for the things of the spirit"

80, the total volume of private capital

S5,593 mortgages. Modernization and re-
pair notes, insured by FILA and distin-

in June to $13,O98,3 1872 and the total of

Less Crime ip Chicago
Police Reports Reveal

Crimes committed in Chicago during
the first three months this year show a
80 per cent decrease from the number
committed during the same period last
year. Captain William Killeen, in
charge of police information reported 10,
761 crimes committed in the first quar-
ter of 1896, as compared with 14,026
recorded in the first three months of
1885.
The decrease in crime was attributed
by the Chicago Association of Com
merce to the efficiency of police and to
less lenient court treatment of youthful
criminals.

Gen. johnson SAYS

"ASHINGTON, March 27.-Most causes of our
W wholly malleviated curse of unemployment
are SO conjectural that no cure is certain But there
is one cause about which there not the slightest
ooubt-that money refuses to invest itself in en-
ployment- producing enterprise.
New corporate securities sold TO the public in
1929 totaled nearly nine billions of dollars Last wear
they were 404 millions. The issue of new common
STOCK which is the real index of expanding industry
has been practically nil throughout this whole Ad-
ministration.
In the meantime, the backed-up flood of timid
idle money is unprecedented Banks are so full of it
that they dc Mt want any more. Billions have accu-
mulated to nearly record high" Available credit
is far above any record Nobody will use it, Fifteen
billions, which might have gone to activate industry
has been invested in "governments"-and be-
come curb rather than a spur, to industrial en-
ployment. The total of idle but available money and
credit is ample to finance the greatest surge of
prosperity and employment in our history.
THESE facts too conspicuous to be disregarded
Il so startling as to trumpet a principal if not
the single cause of continued unemployment II
that is SO, most vital question is: why won't
money go to work." The answer of those who have
it-whether much little-ts absolutely invariable:
II am afraid of what the government is going to do
to anybody who has makes money"
You can't get away from it. That fear is the
answer to the bulk of the unemployment question.
This government knows what it intends to do.
orty-four million Americans are destitute If the
fear that keeps them is groundless then If ever
government had duty it is to remove that fear
Thus far it has continuously sustained it.

This happens TO be of the best novels OF the

1916 in Dublin when the Irish patriots against

somehow, managed to touch off the spark that

Then, when the days of short
bathing suits came along, this be-
came something of problem.
Now it has ceased to be, for, as
I have said, the modern method
leaves little or no mark.
Each of the children recently
had a light head-cold. I'm not
complaining on that score. An
odd cold now and then develops
certain immunities.
We know, for instance, that
Eskimos brought south for the
first time suffer continually from
colds. That is because they have
never been given a chance to
develop the immunities which
people in our country must de-
velop. The same thing has been
noted in northern Indians.
Now that the quintuplets have
had several of these light colds
without suffering any very bad
results, I am less worried about
their condition as ''hothouse ba-
bies' than l was before.
That is the way I referred to
them in the days before they had
any such disease at all, and there
fore before they had developed
any immunity to them.

the child down, l don't accept the
theory that the childhood dis

The Dionne babies won't catch

If I believed there was the

these children you may be sure
I wouldn't risk it. 1t would be
very foolish to jeopardize all that
has been won by doing anything
in the least experimental.
But as regards this years vac

not the case, We will all feel

known of case where it was
harmful.
The situation is similar to the
toxoid protection recently given
the children against diphtheria.
Without the toxoid immunity
recently given, I would be far less
easy in my mind than I am. Even
With all the precautions we take
at the hospital against infection,
we could not be certain that the
disease would not penetrate our
defenses.
You may be sure I breathed
easier when the diphtheria toxoid
had been administered to all five
babies and its effectiveness made
certain.
Some incidents from my early
practice I have never forgotten.
A young child had so-called black
diphtheria and 1 was called. When
L entered the door of the home
the child was frantically running
from father to mother and back
again, gasping for help which
neither of them could give.
l repeat that a man who has
seen this sort of thing for 80
years would be criminal if he did
not insist on every known protec-
ton against it. Other victims, of
course, died suddenly in their
BEDS from paralysis of the heart.

Now, regardless of what West

HOWEVER, I don't carry this
Il Il position too far. The belief of
many old-fashioned parents that
the sooner their children have
scarlet fever, whooping cough and
