War Refugees Vaccinated
By Strong-Arm Methods

SHANGHAI, China Rj.-1n this war;
shocked, disease-ridden city any resistance
on the part of a Chinese war refugee
against vaccination is efficiently countered
by health workers with strong arm
methods.
While sock on the jaw or the applica-
ton of helf-Nelson may seem a bit
drastic, such measures are often the only
means of overcoming the Oriental fear of
bit of arm-scraping and dose of vac
cine.
In normal times more gentle means of
handling the problem are used such as
verbal persuasion. But conditions in
Shanghai at the moment are far from
normal and health workers have but little

When an Imperial
Election Was Bought.

10 tne CullUT u 1Hc otdI.
Thurns and Fuggers have been arrested
in Austria, illustriouS names dating back
to the days of the Holy Roman Empire. 1t
was Matthias Won Thurn who led the Bo-
hemian rebellion against Emperor Ferdi-
nand II U618) and thereby started the
Thirty Years War. turbulent meeting
of the mobiles was held at Prague, two
imperial commissioners were chucked out
of the window and their private secretary
along with them. Frederick of the Pala-
innate, husband Of Elizabeth. daughter of
James of England, was elected king.
After the latter's defeat Count Won
Thurn took service with the Saxons and
Swedes. Once, taken prisoner, the famous
Wallenstein, Duke of Friedland, released
him, to the emperors disgust. It was Fer
dinand's pious wish to hang the arch
traitor" as high as Haman. Wallenstein,
by the way, was q Czech, one of the very
few great commanders produced by the
Slavic race.
AS to the Won Fuggers they are descend"
ants of John F. Fugger (about 137o)

nobled, they became Europe's foremost
traders and fnanciers. Jacob QD Fugger
put $4,000 gold guilders into the slush
fund that bought the imperial dignity for
the great Charles v Q517 ADJ. The
Fuggers also financed wars for the en-

~ ANGKOK, Siam.-"Siam is not play

dist, Slams young, serious and
hard-working foreign minister in
an exclusive interview Slams relations
with Japan differ in no way from Slams
relations with dozen other countries.
Siam does not, and will not. favor any
nation or country in particular" the min
lister went on emphatically when asked con-
cerning the rumors of increased friendship
with Japan Siam has not granted any
special industrial or commercial privileges
to Japan. Nor does Siam contemplate, al
lotting any such special rights in the future.
Within the past year We have concluded
about a dozen treaties with various of the
foreign powers. Among these treaties was
one with Japan. But our treaty with Japan
contains no secret clauses. 1t does not diff
fer materially from the treaties we have
made with all other countries. We have
not allowed any commercial or industrial
concessions to Japan that we have not al
lowed to other countries.
Land Ownership Banned.
Actually. in some respects, our new
treaty with Japan is more restrictive than,
for instance, our treaty with Great Britain.
BY this new treaty, Japanese subjects are
not allowed to own land in Siam. This is
because foreign nationals are not allowed
to own land in Japan.
The new and revised treaties have be-
come necessary because Siam has suddenly
grown up. We have become a modern ma
ton with dependable law courts. judges and
a gendarmerie capable of providing internal
order and insuring the salty of foreign
nationals in our land. These changes IN
Siam made extraterritoriality unnecessary
and relic of ancient times.

Asks That Reason
Prevail in Air Conditioning.

To the Editor Of The Star:
WAS much interested in the letter from
M, Baron regarding air conditioning OF
buildings, which appeared in The Star
under date of May 16, 1888.
AS far as expense to the Government Is
concerned. if they did not spend 1t that
way, they would squander it in some other
manner. It would not be used to increase
the pay of low salaried employees.

state of the weather during May. fail TO
see anything lovely or balmy about It, IL Is

not want any windows open to let the colo'
damp air blow on me and make my SINUS

the furnace. Any one who Will operate an
air-cooling system when the temperature
outside is between so and so degrees should
be sent to an institution for mental de-
fectives. Temperature should be determined
by the thermometer, not the calenoar.
There are only about two months. July ana
August, during which air conditioning Is
needed. There is some warm weather be-
fore that, but only spasmodically, and it
does not hurt any one to be little warm
for couple of days at time. Even dur
ing July and August there Is no reason for
keeping the temperature OF building AT
10 or Y degrees. If that is too cold IN the
winter why is it not too cold in the sum-
mer? A temperature of 78 is plenty cool
enough and there isn't such a shock when
going from indoors to outdoors.
Why, in the name Of common sense,
cannot something be done to impress upon
the custodians of buildings that people
do not want to be kept in a refrigerator?
Many persons have trouble enough trying

Squandering Program
Seen as Total Failure.

TO the EQltOr OF Inc otdr.
A COUNTRY that once functioned
smoothly and exposed few citizens
to the mercies OF bureaucratic salvation
has experienced an excess of certain
creed of government A creed which in
the working out reverses its own sound,
publicly expressed precepts of conduct.
1t has witnessed that Governments failure
yet is compelled to tolerate efforts by the
sponsors to foist that type of government
upon constructive forces that reject it.
Out of this the seeds of revolt are sure to
spread and create demand for an exactly
opposite type of stewardship" or manage
ment.
Ham Fish conveyed the idea when he
said: If President Roosevelt resigned to-
day and Mr.. Garner became President,
business confidence would be restored with
in 30 days"
1ndustrialists, forgotten men" who use
their skulls and check performance against
broken promises: business men and hirers
of labor responsible for whatever full en-
ployment and prosperity this country has
known, concur in this.
Upon what is their expressed confidence
based? Simply that in such case the New
Deal would cease to be the New Deal. Up
turn would coincide with its liquidation
and return of the normal functioning OF
business-to the benefit Of national initia-
tive, unemployment and recovery. without
mortgaging the future. A blight would be
dropped off en- route to destination.
It is safe to predict that under the sug-
gested auspices, it would not be necessary
for Senator Byrd to declare (and excite
official enmity for his attitude of insistence
upon national solvency) that "squandering
ourselves back to prosperity has been .
colossal failure" WALTER BAHNSEN.

of the words and music known as The

because they think there are not enough

any one has suggested the removal OF a
very large contributing cause of the acci-

Wallis school of medicine there can be no
doubt when all the agenda is studied.
In recent outbreaks compulsory vaccina-
ton of school children was suspended by
State health officers Why? Because in
fantile paralysis is acknowledged often to
follow vaccination for smallpox, varicella,
pertussis, common colds, etc. We refer
your columnist to the accounts OF this
suspension in the New York Sun, Septem-
ber II, 1881, and September Is. 1881; the
Long Island Star, September ~, 1881; the
New York American September 23 1881,
and the Brooklyn Daily Eagle, September
%, 1881. And if others are interested in this
question of public health. added proof OF
these facts is to be found in the appeal
circulated among New York physicians. by
the hospital of the Rockefeller Institute
for Medical Research dated l93l-l932. ask
ing that cases of encephalitis following
vaccination be sent to the hospital for
study purposes.
In view of the wide investigation We have
made since DR.. Walls startling disclosure
of the use to which the money contributed
by the public supposedly for the treatment
and alienation of infantile paralysis suf-

that We disagree with the wisdom OF the

Reply to Letter
On Capital and Labor.
To the Editor OF The Star
IN THE Sunday Star of May Is / no.
ticed a letter entitled Capital Pre-
ceded Labor in the World Economy by
Ernest Haviland Hobbs was amazed
at what l read.
The letter opens with the introduction
of a statement attributed to Abraham
Lincoln to the effect that labor came be-
fore capital. followed by two definitions
of capital The statement by Lincoln that
labor came before capital is correct. and
the two definitions of capital are correct.
though not stated in the most concise
possible language. From this point the
writer of the letter assumes, without
any justification in fact, that land con-
stitutes capital, and on this totally un-
warranted and erroneous assumption pro-
ceeds to discredit the statement attributed
to Lincoln as well as the two definitions Of
capital which he himself has just quoted.
When definitions of certain terms have
once been decided upon. then these def
nitions should be adhered to in all dis
cussion where these terms are used. There
are four terms that are used in discussions
of political economy, namely: Land, labor,
wealth and capital. Land is nature; labor
is physical or mental exertion; wealth is
the product of labor applied to land, and
capital is that portion of wealth which is
set aside to assist labor in the production
of more wealth.
Since capital is produced by labor it
could not have preceded labor in the world
of economy and the claim made by the
writer of the letter referred to that such
is the case falls to the ground as palpable
absurdity.
