A Mexican Caballero.

CTRAIGHT Graustark is the
~ life story of Gen. Jose Gonzalo
Escobar, who may be repatriated
by the Mexican decree of amnesty
for political exiles. He found his
wife at beauty contest-a Texas
contest, too. She was the famously
beautiful Conception Goeldner of Ell
Paso and Mexico City.
The handsome, hard-boiled and
bucko General Escobar, staged in
long and glamorous plot of amour
and fighting, was one of General
Gales best officers. He was the
hero of the "shelf of death battle
in 1925, suppressing the De La
Huerta revolt. He suppressed the
1927 uprising and rode into Mex
leo on handsomely caparisoned
white horse, with the bands playing
and the crowds cheering.
Two years later, he hid in clurnp
of soap weed, shed his gaudy uni
form, medals and all, put on q
peon's soiled dungarees and strolled
across the national boundary line
under the eyes of his enemies. He
had started revolution of his own.
1t didn't jell.
His beautiful wife traced him to
a house in Prince Arthur street in
Montreal. With a lawyer, she ar
rived to tell him she had started
divorce proceedings. He could turn
on charm by just pushing button.
Sonora Escobar wilted into his
arms, and it has been a Ruth and
Boaz story ever since. The divorce
proceedings were withdrawn. His
enemies charged that he had TAX
en- a half million gold pesos with
him when he fed.

NEW YORK.-Simultane-

Kinley announced the isola-
ton of the leprosy germ and
Emil Ludwig published his
biography of the Nile, where
the germ first was mentioned
in craven headlines 1000

Starting from scratch, DR.. Nc
Kinley, one of the c1everest of the
Omen who patrol the subnicro-
scopic world, caught up with the
outlaw in 20 years. He is the forty
three-year-old dean of medicine of
George Washington university. His
announcement was made as he ar
rived in Manila, where he was with
the Rockefeller foundation in 1927
and 1928. He will conduct further
research among the 5000 lepers of
the Culion island leper colony. This
work will be in behalf of the Cen
eral Leonard Wood Memorial fund.
DIR. Mckinley is a native of EN-
poria, Kan, educated in liberal arts
and medicine at the University of
Michigan. He continued his stud
les in bacteriology as the holder of
a research fellowship the Pasteur
institute of the University of Brus-
sells. He gained eminence in his
profession in teaching and research
work at the University of Michigan,
Baylor university and the college
Of physicians and surgeons of Co.
lumbia university.
After his work in the Philippines,
he was dean Of the school of tropi-

member of the International Lep-
rosy association and the American
Leprosy foundation. He is an au-
thority on the 'filterable virus" the
author of several books in his field,
including 1.-THE Geography of Dis

News from the Philippines is that
chaulmoogra oil, the ancient Indian
remedy, is proving increasingly eff
fective at the Culion island settle

to the bonus army" of 1882; but
there never was one with quite
that heart-in- the-throat quality
that goes with the present descent
of the Boys Scouts of America,
Twenty-Five thousand of these
lads have taken possession of the
city. They are not there to seek any
favors or exert any pressure; they
are simply a bunch of healthy,
wholly admirable American boys
out to have a good time, to see their
country's capital and, just incident
ally, to show what a fine set Of
boys this country can produce. And
it does one good to see them down
there.
There is something about Scout

In the Scout troops there are all
sorts of boys; boys from city slumS
and boys from small towns; boys
whose fathers are wealthy and boys
whose fathers are distressingly poor
Twenty years from now these boys
will be more or less what their
fathers are now-and the free,
wholesome comradeship that now
holds them together will be gone
forever.
Instead, they will share the divi-
sions that curse our grownup world
The poor ones. as likely as not,
will be denouncing the rich ones
As economic royalists, and the rich

BUDGET BALANCE, ECONOMY
AND SENATE INVESTIGATIONS

Secretary of the Treasury Henry
Morgenthau declared at Los Angeles
this week that the federal budget will
be balanced this year News dispatches
on the same day told of a request by
Sen. Robert NJ La Toilette, jr., for an
appropriation of $4,000 to continue a
so-called civil liberties investigation by
himself and another senator. and of the
passage by the. senate of bill authorz.
ing establishment of a S750,000 federal
cancer research center, with an annual
appropriation of 100000 to fight the
disease.
Every year for the last six years. it
seems, we've heard that the budget is
going to be balanced ''this year." The
assurance has become so common that
it is scarcely news any more.
But it would be news if the budget
were balanced.
The two other news items mentioned
here aptly demonstrate how congress
can be, at one time, both foolish and
wise.
The entire accomplishment of the La
Toilette committee to date has been
report that Chicago police could have
prevented the death of 10 rioting strike
pickets on Memorial Day. Now the COM
mlttee, admittedly pro-labor and anti
Capitalist wants $4,000 more out of
an already dry treasury to continue its
investigations" Like most senate COM
mittee Investigations, those conducted by
this committee leave things no better
than they found them, do not lead to
any constructive legislation, and are
soon forgotten. Most of such investiga-
tions are wilful waste of money
On the other hand, the cancer research
center is so worthwhile that one is al
most surprised to see it approved by
congress- There is room in any budget
for project like this-one which has
as its goal the eventual conquest of a
disease heretofore unconquered a dis
ease which has brought suffering, misery
and death to millions in every part of
the world
The federal budget CAN be balanced
and there is room in it for worth
while items-but until congress and the
administration learn the folly of worth
less expenditure, it is exceedingly doubt
full that the budget WILL be balanced.

Los ANGELES GUSTS
ALIENS FROM RELIEF ROLLS

If every local government in the Unit
ed States followed the example set by
Los Angeles county in refusing relief to
aliens, there would be less of relief
problem and less of a labor shortage in
the United States.
The policy should be adopted by the
federal government, not only in work
relief-where it is already in effect
but in direct relief, too. There are lot
of relief clients who do not want to work
anyway, and who consequently greatly
prefer direct relief as an easier method
of living.
Imperial county, where relief has nev-
er been very gladly extended to aliens,
will have to be even more watchful now
that the coast metropolis has barred the
door to them. Many of those cut off of
relief in Los Angeles county may be
expected to take up residence elsewhere
in southern California, with the hope
of finding a more sympathetic communi-
ty. The kind of sympathy they look for
costs money.

that he has attempted to be an uncle
to destitute people from every part of
the globe-and now uncle is finding him.

of relief for himself
