World war men who did tre-
mendous job well, died at his home
in Cleveland, Ohio, Of coronary
thrombosis at the age of sixtythree
years. Called to Washington in 1916
to be secretary of war in President
Wilson'S cabinet, Mr.. Baker accom-
plished the great feat Of mobilizing
the huge American army and get
ting it across the Atlantic in time to
be the decisive factor in winning the
conflict 1t was he who selected
General Pershing to command the
A E. F., and counseled him to keep
the American army intact.
Mr.. Baker was eminent as law
yer and a close student of interna-
tional affairs. Though always a
Democrat, he turned against the
present administration mainly be-
cause of the Tennessee Valley au-
thority projects and the usurpation
of state rights.

A CCORDING to the Works Prog
L \ ress administration, 1000, 900
persons have lost their jobs since
September / and 100000 more
may be out of work by the end of
February.
The estimate was made by Leon
Henderson, consulting economist,
while staff of federal employees
was speeding compilation of the
mailman census of the unemployed
made more than a month ago. II
was conceded that if the unemployed
are increasing at the rate indicated
in the Henderson estimate the post
card census will be worthless as q
basis for attacking the unemploy-
ment problem.

Use of Histidine.

Now just as an overweight individ-
ual will grasp for a quick" method
of reducing weight-a drug or gland
eXtract-so are many ulcer patients
now taking injections of histidine
which in addition to relieving the
pain of ulcer also allows them to
eat almost anything they wish. And
reports from physicians using these
injections certainly prove that this
method is much more pleasant than
the diet and alkai'' treatment and
much to be preferred to operation.
However, what about the results
obtained from the histidine injec-
tons?
The reports continue to show that
while relief from pain and other
symptoms are obtained by this
method, nevertheless the ulcer often
remains and would give trouble
were the histidine injections discon-
tinued.

 Fiske picked up the conversa- ton.
 Suppose, he said, that we hear what happened to Bancroft now. It's business with me, you know"
 Nikki and Steve told them of of the landslide and of their getting lost and spending the night in the hills, of hearing the shot the next morning, seeing Sarto and of finding Bancroft's body.
 T suppose Sarto must have seen us from the top of the hill," fin- ished Steve. "He didn't know we had found Bancroft but he did know we were following him. So he was waiting for us when we got home"
 Rance, Woody, and Nikki were left at the cabin with Sarto while Steve led Uncle Jim and Fiske to the ravine where Bancroft lay. Uncle Jim carried spade from the cabin. Fiske examined the scene carefully, made many notes in a small book and asked Steve several questions. He extracted the bullet which had killed Bancroft and then they buried the New York racketeer in a grave in the ravine, and piled stones for rude marker.
 "He was genuinely concerned over you being lost" said Fiske.

 Actually Chiang and his bril- liant wife, Mme. Chiang, are the Chinese government. No official would dare 10 raise his voice against them. They have aroused China to new consciousness of the necessity of scrapping the old ways for the new and of forging a new place in the world.
 Tireless, living very simply, Chiang is up at dawn, works until a late hour every night. In ap- pearance he is not a commanding figure. Illness has emaciated him. But he carries himself erect, IS in- tent, staccato in his actions. Lead- CT of the Kuomintang party. the government and the army, fre- quently acting drastically without explanation, Chiang has been called China's dictator. He does not, however, consider himself such. He does consider himself pledged to guide China's destiny He is shown above on a 1929 Chinese stamp.
