TEA FOR BURNS

TEA FOR BURNS
 The tea-leaves poultice as a good first aid dressing for scalds or burns was described here sometime ago. Perhaps I had better quote the di- rections from that article:
 Way back in 1871, Dr. w. H. Searles, Warsaw, Wisconsin, pub lished in the Chicago Medical Ex- aminer (April issue) his homely remedy for burns, reporting it's suc-

Not sentimental gesture real determination that the number Of mothers who die needlessly each year in childbirth will be cut down. The rate hasn't fallen much in the last ten years-"ptifully little" in the opinion of Dr. H. M Haggard of Yale
 Perhaps you are thinking That is problem for the doctors There's nothing that ordinary peo- pie can do"
 Dr. Haggard thinks there is lot i've ordinary" people can do. In fact he planes us for the slow progress that has been made in lowering the mater ny death rate in the United States. He thinks that public indifference due to general ignorance is to blame-and that we parents and teachers and "cranks" are to blame for the ignorance.

been taken in bank robberies, in kid
napings and in other forms of depreda-
ton. 1t saved money on suits institut-
ed against the Government and thwarted
by investigation on the part of Special
Agents. Many fines we're imposed as a
result of the prosecution of cases in
vestigated by the FBI. The result was
that while S5,80O,OOO was being spent,
the gross income from the items have
listed amounted to S41,438,37O-a
profit of S35,638,37O, in the form of re-
covered stolen goods, savings in litiga-
ton and returns to the Treasurer of the
United States through the levying of
fines.
This balance sheet is incidental to our
main objective l cite these facts merely
to show that effective law enforcement
is profitable investment. These achieve
ments represent no magic; they are the
result of no secret formula or legerde-

~RIME does not pay certainly 1t
does not pay the actual vloiator
~ in the long run.
This fact is repeated almost
every day; but here is another fact -
just as true, and every bit as important
which we seldom hear: Good law en-
forcement does pay. 1t is one of the best
investments community can have. 1t
not only prevents crime; it pays good
cash dividends.
Too many of our citizens take it for
granted that law enforcement is never
ending drain upon our taxpayers with
out hope of monetary return. Such is
not the case.
We hold.to different theory in the
Federal Bureau of Investigation. We
know that law enforcement can be
placed on an efficient, businesslike
basis and that at the end of the year its
achievements can be measured, not only
in terms of protection of society - by
the removal of predatory parasites and
in the reduction of crime i but in the
number of dollars returned to taxpayers
in savings and in the value of recovered
property.
Our experience has shown that this
can be done. By returning dividend OF
more than six hundred per cent in 1886,
the Federal Bureau of Investigation
demonstrated that it was one of the best
investments possessed by Americas tax
payers. The balance sheet is not COM
plex; the figures are easy to understand.
During the last fiscal year the tax
payers invested S5,SOO,0OO in the Fed

States, were identified by the Bureau
by comparing incoming hngerprint cards.
The Bureau received the fingerprints Of
more than 100000 individuals arrested
throughout the nation, and found that
nearly zoo, 900 of these persons possessed
prior arrest or criminal records. Their
complete criminal histories were thus
made available without cost to the po-
lice, prosecutors, courts and parole and
probation bodies.
Meanwhile, in the Technical Crime
Laboratory, thousands of scientific ex-
aminations we're conducted in criminal
cases for law-enforcement bodies from
one end of the country to the other. In
many instances, government experts
testified in court as to the results OF
these examinations, without cost to the
local authorities. Crime statistics were
gathered and distributed, schools were
operated for new Special Agents and
for the re-training of others. The FBl
National Police Academy continued to

mated for this advanced study in police
science by law-enforcement agencies IN

ONWARD.
BY REV. ]. EVERETTE NEESE.

ONWARD.
The shirker never wins in the battle
of life. If one is to be successful, one
must ever have his eye on the goal
before him. He must move steadily on
and on and on. This onward move is
very beautifully expressed in the fol-
lowing poem:
Onward, Onward, we must go
Ever pressing to and fro,
Needing not the social kinds
That our journey always finds.
Look for good and good We'll get,
And reach our goal with lust such
grit,
BY first just knowing we're right,
Then pressing onward with our
might.
