If HONOR WENT
WHERE HONOR IS DUE

DR.. Walter B. Coffey, head OF the
hospital department of one of the ma
tion's greatest railroads, has retired to
go into private practice, said brief news
dispatch the other day.
If Clark Gable of the films retired
to spend his time fishing, the story would
have been longer and more people
would have read it. Yet, if honor was
given where honor is due, more people
would know DR.. Coffey's name than
know that of the film star. A hundred
years from now, more people will know
it.
The doctor has spent his lifetime in
research on malignancy, which means
that he has contributed much to the
scientific hunt for a cure for cancer
Hundreds have been saved from anguish
already because of his findings Millions
may be saved from ling ering death in
the years to come because of his work.
DR.. Coffey's private practice" will
be devoted largely to continuation of
his research. Before it is through, he
may have found the thing doctors have
sought for years, a cure for cancer. Z.

under-privileged, but she raised the
money for doing it.
At one point a crisis arose. The
organization out-greW its quarters.
and it had no money.
So Mrs. Norton started out to
raise funds from business men in
the community.
Since she was known for the
splendid, unselfish work she was
doing, interviews were easily OBJ
tanned. At her first interview. she
stated her case, outlining her needs
and saying all she could to arouse
sympathy for the needy children.
But with all her pleading, she
made no impression. Things had
probably gone wrong with the pres

way, he was always being called
upon for help" There was a
limit to what man could do "He
couldn't take upon himself the cares
of the entire world"
There being nothing else she
could do, Mrs. Norton let him sput-
ter away. But while he sputtered
she thought. Finally, during an
intermission, she presented another
angle.
Mr.. Blank, your company is a
big company. You don't expect it
to go out of business do your

You may even expect it to keep
on growing?"
"Humph, we've made a gain every
year since we started"
That's what thought" said Mrs.
Norton quietly. "As you grow you
take on more help, don't your

"Where do you expect 10 recruit
your employes?" she then asked.
"Oh, anywhere Most of our men
come from right here in town. Lot

"It's your future employees I'm
looking after, Mr.. Blank" said Mrs.
Norton. "We are trying to care
for them and train them to be good
citizens-honest, reliaple-the kind
of men you will want to employ"
DO you think Mrs. Norton got a
contribution? Well, she walked out
of that office with $500 in cash IN
her pocketbook. When the matter
was presented from the presidents
point of vantage, Mrs. Norton got
what she wanted.

situation in his home state of New
York promises to leave President
Roosevelt with at least a partial
neutrality-suspicious. worse.
The Cne bright ray of sunshine
for the White House there is the
fact that the mix-up resulting from
the death of Senator Royal S. Cope
land has brought Jim Farley back
to a more cordial relationship with
Roosevelt and that the two men
are working together to exert New
Deal control over New York's Dem
ocratic party.
Although no one yet knows all
the answers to the furious trading
efforts now progressing in New
York, Gov Herbert Lehman is gen.
orally expected to achieve his am
bition for the Democratic nomina-
ton to succeed Copeland.
Roosevelt would rather not have
Lehman in the Senate, considering
him hostile and somewhat conServa-
tive of late. But efforts are being
made to force Lehman to support a
New Deal choice for the guber-
material nomination who would run
on the Democratic ticket with Leh-
man and Senator Robert F. Wagner
Congressman James M. Mead oi
Buffalo looks like an increasingly
good bet for that nomination, al
though some New Dealers are still
working for Solicitor General Rob
ert H. Jackson, believing he would
be a stronger candidate against Dis
trict Attorney Tom Dewey, the
racket buster, in case Dewey be-
came the Republican nominee
Mead is a Catholic-most politicians
agree the ticket needs One"-and
on friendly terms with labor.
Roosevelt and Farley hold the
theory that Dewey will be drafted
and Dewey is alleged to have Whis-
pered weeks ago that he would
accept the G.. o. P. nomination to
run against anyone but Wagner or
Lehman. (Wagner refuses to run
for governor, but Roosevelt might
conceivably be able to draft him
in an emergency
Yet Dewey would be handicapped
by Mayor F. H. LaGuardia's refusal
to run for senator on the elaborately
emphasized ground that he had
been recently reelected and owed
it to voters to stay on the job.
Dewey was elected to office last
November for the first time.
A Democratic governor hostile to
Roosevelt would put bad crimp
in r. d. RS hopes of liberalizing
the party and dominating its 1910
national convention.

s."OST OF CRIME
land Tribune)

3and Irbune)
e While the departing session of the 18th
congress was setting a mark with the eX-
penditure of S12,000,O0O, 900, the people
of the country were spending $4,000
100000 in another field. 1t is the sum
which is chargeable directly to crime in
a single year.
While "crime does not pay" we pay
for it every day in many ways. Speaking
on the subject at the Dads club few
evenings ago, Ralph Hoyt, chief assistant
district attorney, said:
"Eighty-five per cent of adult GRIMM
ais began their crime careers as juvenile
delinquents, and records show that so per
cent of all juvenile delinquents become
the adult criminals of tomorrow
While crime costs US $4,000, 100000 a
year, there are some who begrudge the
comparatively insignificant sums which
are spent in the efforts to reduce delin-
quency. One day we may discover that
expenditures of millions to provide better
opportunities for youth will bring large
returns upon the investment.

Probably the greatest danger
facing the American people today
is not so much the danger that
they will do something wrong as
the danger that they will fail to
do something right.
In some ways we are a peculiar
people. We have our emotional ups
and downs, and they often carry
us a long way; but underneath
everything we still have that old
fashioned trust in our own star
the feeling that somehow, some
time, we shall come out all right
because it is so written IN the
skies. And while that is a good
feeling to have, it could lead to
disaster.
Arthur T. Vanderbilt, president
of the American Bar Association,
touched on this point the other
day in an address before Yale Law
School alumni at New Haven.
THE most deadly problem fac
ing America is not fascism nor
collectivism," he said. ut is the
widespread feeling that we have
a destiny and that we shall reach
it without individual thought, in
dividual initiative or active pubic
service"

the Commodity Credit Corpor-

The following points are
stressed as ones that should be
emphasized and checked by the
producer:
l. For farm storage the pro-
Queer should be sure that his
bin or granary will meet the
Specifications and must provide
for the following:
a. Holding the grain without
loss of quantity or quality.
b. Protect the grain from
rain, snow, and ground water.
c. Provide reasonable protec-
ton from damage by birds,
mice, rats, and other animals.
d. Be adapted to fumigation
for destruction of insects.
e. Provide reasonable protec-
ton against loss by fire or theft.
Bins which do not meet these
requirements can often be made
acceptable by repairing or re-
building at a reasonable cost.
2. For elevator-stored wheat
the producer should be certain
that the elevator is approved
by the Commodity Credit Cor
poration; otherwise a loan can
not be made on it.
