What The Magazines
Are Saying

Samuel insult is dead. And the
newspapers, commenting on his
death, have assured us that we will
see no more insults. Their day is
done. The insults will always
be with us as long as the instru-
ments by which they flourish are
with us. The instrument which
insult used vas the modern corpora
ton and its many special parts for
getting control of vast wealth with
small capital. The most important
part of this corporate device is the
holding company. No change has
been made in the laws respecting
corporations or holding companies.
No effort has been made to change
them.-John T. Flynn, in The New
Republic, Aug. 8, 1888.
When the CLIO held its first con-
ference in Atlantic City in October,
1887, it was confronted with a new
depression and swollen figures on
unemployment the big CLIO
unions were beginning to shrink.
Such a development was cheerfully
contemplated by the American Fed
Grafton of Labor. But in spite of all
its prophecies of CLIO collapse, the
hoped-for disintegration has not
taken place a high government
official, returning recently from a
coast-to-coast survey of the labor
situation reports that the unions
everywhere are holding their own
with unexpected firmness.
The reason is that once again, this
time in its approach to unemploy-
ment, the CLIO has shown great
capacity for realistic pioneering.
FleXibly adapting its program to real
need, it has created the first work
able plan for the care of jobless
union members in the history of the
American labor movement. There
are repeated rumors that the Work
ers Alliance may be ultimately alb
sorbed by the CLIO unemployment
committees. No confirmation of this
has been given by the CLIO. Still,
it would seem a logical step, and one
which would strengthen the position
of both the union and the unem-
ployed.-Mary Heaton Worse, in The
New Republic, Aug. 3, 1888.

KITCHEN TEST FOR
T. EGGS

Next time you suspect your eggs
aren't as fresh as they might be, try
this test suggested by the Consumers
Guide, publication of the Consumers
Counsel Division of the A.A.A.:
Open the shell of the egg carefully
and put the egg gently on a plate.
Notice the yolk. If it remains firm,
small, and outstanding, good. But if
it spreads out or breaks for no APP
parent reason, take warning. The
white also should be firm. If it
looks weak and watery, you can be
SUR you haven't bought a fresh egg.
The old-fashioned test of fresh
ness, by putting the egg in a pan of
water without breaking it, is fairly
reliable, though not always a certain
check, A fresh egg should sink to
the bottom of the pan Immediately.
If the heavy end rises above the
small end, the eggs freshness is
doubtful, while if the egg floats on
top of the water, it is probably COM
pletely bad.
Small clots of blood in the white
can be removed without hurting the
egg. If the white is discolored, or
if there is a bad odor to the egg,
don't use it.
Of course, your best protection
always is to ask for U. S. govern
ment graded eggs and note the date
of inspection which you will find on
the grade certificate or grade seal on
the retail package.

COOPERATIVE HEALTH TO
TELL OF PERSECUTION
OF PHYSICIANS

1t was revealed today that begin
ming with its October issue the
monthly magazine Cooperative
Health will publish the facts on the
persecution of physicians associated
with health associations.
The statement was as follows:
"The recent Juror over the charges
of the Department of Justice that
the Medical Society in the District
of Columbia have violated the anti
trust laws in prosecuting physicians
affiliated with Group Health Asso-
citation has brought the a%nti-social
activities of organized medicine to
the public's attention. Investigation
reveals that actions similar to those
Of the medical society in Washing
ton, D. c., have been taken in other
sections Of the country. The condi-
tions found in the nations capitol
are not unique and the facts about
activities or medical societies in
other states should be published"

HIGH COURT BACKS
~p0LI(YH0LDER WHO
SPURNS OPERATION
Rules Benefits Must Be Paid,
Even Though Surgery Would
Cure Disease.

The holder of an insurance policy
that pays benefits when he is per
manently and totally disabled" need
not submit to an operation, even
though such treatment, in the opin-
ion of eminent medical authorities,
gives him a 80 per cent chance for
complete recovery.
Such was the ruling of the state
supreme court in a case brought
against the Pacific Mutual Life In
surance Company by Fred H. Matt
and decided Monday.
Matz was injured, the complaint
said, and suffered from "osteomye-
litis of the tibia of the left leg"
which disabled him. His policy with
the insurance company called for
payment Of SIS a month for life.
The company insisted that he sub
init to a bone operation.
Eminent surgeons, the leading
bone specialists of Denver, held that
such an operation would give him a
80 per cent chance of complete re-
covery," the suit alleged.
Matt refused to submit to the
operation.
The supreme court ruled that Matt
did not have to place himself on the
operating table unless he wanted to.
''The policy reads that SIS a month
shall be paid the insured should the
insured become permanently and
totally disabled" the court said.
There is no clause in the policy
which requires the insured to sub
nit to an operation, even though the
medical authorities hold that such
an operation had a 80 per cent
chance of being successful"
County Judge c. f. Kettering, be-
fore whom the case was first tried,
held the same way, and his rulings
were affirmed.-The Denver Post.

swer, what remains of our school

Personal ties loosen, because there

knowledge of a world that had been
foreign to us, and some sympathy
for it. A long time has passed since

since he loved her, the Arab woman

there are bourgeois war veterans, in
whom the comradeship of arms left

Taking advantage of the WPA program, a number of Montana
cities this summer re conducting extensive street oiling and improve
ment programs. Pictured here is a section of Benton avenue, directly
behind the Federal building in Helena, which is being oiled under a
cny-wide WPA street project AT Butte, close to 5000 WPA workers
are employed on a million and a half dollar paving program under
which $50 blocks of streets within the city limits and some ten miles
of streets outside the limits will be hard-surfaced. AS a result of ex-
tensive preparatory WPA work the city of Anaconda recently was
able to award a private contract job for oling all streets in the city
Most other major cities of the state are either building or maintaining
their thoroughfares through WPA assistance, officials say.
Since its inception, WPA in Montana has paved approximately 100
miles OF city Streets has built 20 miles of sidewalk and has laid more

The New York federal grand jury,
in its recommendations to the Presi-
dent for deportation of all foreign
born persons on relief who after
three years have not taken out
naturalization papers, unfortunately
aligns itself with the alien baiters.
Naturalization of immigrants is high
ly desirable, of course, and is usually
sought eagerly by the aliens them
selves. Indifference, however, is
rarely the reason for failure to do
so; far oftener, it is caused by in
ability to meet educational require
ments, by red tape and high fees. It
would be a virtually impossible de-
mand to require persons on relief
to raise the funds necessary for
naturalization papers. There is an
other aspect as well; the plight of
dependents of aliens who are at
present eking out a bare living
through WPA employment. WPA
Administrator Hopkins recently is
sued figures showing that the dis
charge of all aliens from work relief
would cut off the support of more
than 100000 American citizens, most
ly children of these workers. The
net result would be to place even
more persons on the direct relief
rolls than at present. With immi-
grafton running far below the quotas
for most countries, with 223, $40 more
foreign-born leaving the country
than have entered in the last six
years, the attempt to make aliens a
scapegoat of the depression is trans
parent deception. (From the St.

Catholic dissent from what has
come to be regarded as the Catholic
view of the Spanish war has been
growing steadily. M. Georges Ber-
nanos, in his "Grands Cimetieres
sous la Lune," has recently attacked
the theory Of the Holy War. BLACK
Friars,' the Dominican organ in
England, has done the same, promi-
nent Catholics in France and Eng
land have supported them, and now
Professor MendizabeI in this volume
("The Martyrdom of SPAIN" Serb
ners) adds the weight of his au-
thority. .
But it is N. Maritain's introduction
to which readers will return. Here,
with true Catholic Piety, deep con-
viction and impressive dignity, M.
Maritain argues against the Holy
War pronouncements of certain
Catholic supporters of Franco. .
The rule is, he says, that an insur-
rection, to be justified, must not
cause more damage to the commu-
nifty than the one it proposes to re-
pair. The Spanish instruction was
fated, so he says, Ito bring about in
a few months of fratricidal war more

life than years of civil strife even

HAPPY MARRIAGES

Psychologists, sociologists and other
ologists are continually checking up the
we'll known human race with respect to all
its varied activities nowadays, so it was in
evitable that they should make study of
happy marriages, if any, to determine how
come.
After long and patient research, sew
findings, which purport to show that per-
sons who marry relatively late are more
likely to live happily ever afterward than
those who marry at an early age.
To give few examples from the
statistics compiled by these interchangeable
researchers, the following conclusions are
quoted:
A girl who marries after she is % is
three times as likely to find welded bliss
as one who rushes into matrimony before
she is 90.
Males who marry after the age of Is
have 2.2 times the chance for married
happiness as those who marry at an earlier
age, according to one expert, while another
places the ratio at 25 In either case note
the decimal point.
Where both parties to marriage are
over %. the chances for making go of it
are still greater. How far above the age
of % this rule holds good is not stated: -
Now tell all this to two youngsters
Between 16 and 20 who are that way about
each other, and see what happens.
