 Rising cost of government has been the subject of much study, and discussion, the years. We heard much of it t~during the last campaign for obvious reasons and recently heard something organization of the administrative setup to Congress. From the latter it santicipated that adjustments meet the situation will be forthcoming.
 But too often the cry against rising cost of pow ernment is raised without sufficient thought of major factor. That is the simple fact that the nation growing in population and demands of that popula- tion must be met. It may be argued that costs no more to legislae and administer for tn persons than it does for ten million. But 1t isn't fact the cords of the years reveal. The larger and more plex civilization, the greater he of govern ment. It is also obvoius fact that times led to extremes in governmental setup with the result that get off balance in another way. Many believe that such situation prev as the present time. It Is for the purpose of making such adjust ments may be necessary that Ebe present mendations before Congress

Faith Healing Fad
Blamed Upon Too
Much Sympathy

MINNEAPOLIS. UP)-Faith heal
ing. according to DIR. Charles Bird,
professor of psychology at the Uni
yersity of Minnesota, is a form of
treatment in which every doctor
should be trained.
Faith healing" DR.. Bird said
is more than the curing of dis
eases by a gifted healer, 1t is i'm
portant today because it is AN ef-
fective method of removing symp-
toms of illnesses found in large
percentage of people who consult
physicians
Faith healing, the psychologist
continued, flourishes today because
adults have learned in childhood
that illness pays.
Parental love for a child, he said.
ana sympathy for him in sickness
teaches him that personal salts
faction can be derived from illness.
Based on sympathy
Sympathy for the sick child, =
he said, enhances a feeling of
worth Illness often releases him
from irksome or unpleasant work.
And when he is older the individ
ual tries to escape social response
blitieS through formation of dram
attic illnesses. But such an individ-
ual cannot be accused of deliberate
p2rpetuation of his illnesses.
The frequency with which some
people have found in illness their
chief escape from greater troubles
or their chief avenue or satisfac-
ton makes it easy for feigned dis
orders to pass beyond control. These
people now are in reality the vic
Tins of their own illnesses.
The disorders of these neurot-
les are not imaginary.
Faith Removes symptoms
Faith healing includes cures at
holy wells holy steps and pill
grimage shrines. The explanation
of these cures lies in the fact that
time has a healing effect. None of
these people has been really cured.
Only the symptoms have been re-
moved. When confidence is shaken
or when fea" is aroused, such a
person relapses.'
DR.. Bird explained that great
many of the persons who consult
physicians are mentally" i'll, And
doctors who appreciate this fact
prescribe bitter medicines and "su-
gar pills" of no value in them
selves.
Because many patients today are

psychiatry should be required of

During the Civil War lead from
shallow diggings was used by both
Union and Confederate forces.
Real activity in the area began
in 1872 when zinc was discovered.
Lead miners frequently had en-
countered a peculiar dark. un-
known substance in the mines. 1t
was often adhering to the lead ore
and was considered a nuisance.
Finally samples Of this peculiar
ore were sent to a smelter IN Illi-
nois. where it was found 10 be zinc
blende of a high quality The find
ing of zinc and lead ore together
attracted many mining men and
prospectors to this locality. and
mining became an important in
dustry.
About 5000 men are employed
in the mining industry in this
area. many of the workers operat-
ing their own shallow mines.
Individual Pool Funds
Frequently two or more miners
pool their funds to buy powder
and mining tools, lease a small
tract of mining land and start OPP
erations of their own.
The land-perhaps containing an
old mine shaft or drill hole-is
usually leased on a royalty basis,
the miners agreeing to pay 10 or
IS per cent of their findings. They
sell their ore every week for cash.
The small mines do not even
use concentrating mills, hand Jig
ging the dirt from the mine and
sending the ore to custom mill for
crushing and separating.
Since mining has become an i'm
portant industry in this section 1t
has been estimated that nearly
$3.50, 0,0OOO0O worth of lead and zinc
has been recovered. This years
production is expected to total about
S25. 900 900.

the result of intcrmiXture with

The discovery of such a posi-

For many years it had been a
custom to lure the blind fish from
the deeper. recesses of the eaverns
to the surface OF a springfield pond
by tn decoy of Japanese goldfish.
Once the blind fish were at the
surface of the pond, food was
dumped and the fish were attract

WAR SCARE IN
EUROPE BRINGS
MINING BOOM

JOPLIN, Mo. 'U.P) - Lead and
zinc mines of the tri-state mining
area of Missouri, Oklahoma and
Kansas-which were all but closed
during the depression-are being
worked at full capacity as a result
of rearmament in Europe.
The reCently-enacted neutrality
laws passed by Congress are in a
great measure responsible for the
increase in lead and zinc sales
This is true because. once war is
declared, the neutrality laws would
prohibit sales of war supplies to
beligerent nations. Therefore the
countries fearing war are buying
huge supplies now and storing them
for future use.
The advance in the price OF lead
and zinc ore began about four
months ago. A Seven-year high
was recorded recently when lead
ore sold at 500 ton and zinc at
$50. Since then the price has de-
clined slightly because of a break
in the London pig lead market.
Operators believe. however that the
price will advance because the de-
nand is still strong.
All-Time High in World War
During the World War zinc
reached an all-time high price Of
sl39 ton and lead sold at CORE
spondingly high prices. Then came
the end of the war. with the con-
sequent leSsened demand and price
decline During the depression the
price of lead ore dropped below
$50 a ton and the price of zinc ore,
or "blende." below $50 Many mines
were forced to close and finally
were abandoned.
In the last few months, with the
price OF lead and zinc ore increas-
ing. many of these mines, long idle,
have been pumped out and are be-
ing operated again.
New mines, also. are being open
ed AMI prospectors are taking drill
tests in attempts to find new de-
posits. Unlike the lead and zinc
mines OF the Rocky Mountain re-
gion. ore deposits in the tri-state
area are found in runs" or bod
les" and not in fissure or veins.
Average Depth 400 Feet
The location of these runs is
determined by core drilling to vari-
Gus depths-usually 800 or 400 feet
and then assaying the samples
recovered.
The zinc ore found in the tri-
state area is mostly blende, known
locally as Jack" 1t generally as
says from 81 to SO per cent zinc.
The lead ore is mostly galena of
high quality, assaying about 30 per
cent lead.
The tri-state area is one of the
worlds most important zinc fields
and produces about one-fourth OF
The supply in the United States. 1t
covers an area Of about so or 80
square miles in Oklahoma, Kansas
and Missouri. Some deposits also
are found in Arkansas, but not in
paying quantities.
Provided Civil War Lead
The tri-state district first at
tracted attention in 1848 when
lead was mined in small quantities
in Jasper and Newton counties.

quality called glamor.
Richard Kline, whose business
it is to keep the Paramount stars
healthy and streamlined, gives
away the secret-it's exercise!
Says this physical director of the
movies: "You can weigh more and
look simmer with good muscle
tone than with fat" Firm tissue
weighs more than flabby tissue,
but takes up less space. =
He advises natural, progressive
exercise to supple the muscles and
relieve nervous strain. His pro-
gram establishes a rhythmical Sc
quence of exercises for complete
relaxation for the development Of
peise, graceful movements and the
long smooth muscles that make
streamlineS.
When the stars need to reduce
in certain spots, he gives exercises
which stretch the underlying
muscles. The friction of the
stretching type Of movement
breaks down the fat cells without
producing any strain. Stretching
tones the muscles and gives a
smooth, compact appearance. Be-
gin with this stretching exercise
which Mr.. Kline gives his keeping
filters:
Position: Stand in good pos
ture.
Movement: Quickly stretc h
the arms and body upward. Now
move the upstretched arms back
ward, just behind the ears, tip the
chin upward and stretch!
Here is the relaxing counter
part of the first exercise:
Position: Feet slightly apart,
body bent forward at the waist
with the lower abdominal wall
held up and the knees straight.
Head. arms, and upper part OF
the body must be perfectly re-
Taxed.
Movement: Remain in this po
sition and bob up and down, al
lowing the arms, shoulders, and
head to dangle Imply, rag-dol
fashion. Bob IL times.
Try this effective stretch:
Position: Lying on the back
arms straight out at the sides
knees flexed and feet flat on the
floor.
Movement: Keeping the up
per part of the body relaxed anc
flat on the floor, twist at the waist
and, holding the feet together
touch the right thigh to the flool
on the right side and then twist
back and rest the left thigh or
the floor.
Mr.. Kline's beautiful keeping
filters are proof of the value o.
these exercises. When I asked hin
to name the star with the mos
beautiful figure, however, HI
accused me of trying to get hin
into trouble. He sidestepped neatly
