Dr. Marvin Lectures
 On ssHeart Diseases
Declares "Athletic Heart" MisnOmer- -Rheuniatis
 Type Increasing Infantle Mortality Rate

pr. Harold M. Marvin, associate clinical professor of medicine and instructor in cardiology at the Yale Medical School, pricked several popular bubbles about heart dis ease last night in the auditorium of the Medical Association building on Central avenue. A capacity au- dience filled all available seats and overflowed into the aisles and rear of the room.
 PaIpitation
 Dr. Marvin spoke of the four types of heart disease-rheumatic arterio-sclerosis, disease resulting from Apprehension, and syphilitic He said that there is no such thing as an "athletic heart", that a normal heart can endure any human exer- ton without being injured, and that palpitation of the heart means only awareness of heartbeats, and has no relation to heart disease.
 Of the heart diseases Dr. Marvin said that rheumatic heart disease is the most prevalent in this part of the country in children. It causes more deaths in the young than in- fantile paralysis and is on the in- crease, he asserted.

|HEBREW HIS PLAN SINKING FUND
YMHA Anxious to Start Work on Community
 Center Here

The waterbury Young Mems He- brew Association have advanced a plan by which it is hoped to hold a statewide convention in this city early in April.
 President Al Steinman has ap- pointed special committee with Nathan Luchnick as acting chair men to present the plan to the var ious organizations. The local YMHA was organized in 1887 with Nathan Kabot as the first presi- dent. A group of l5 chartered members pledged themselves to aid in every way Jewish youths of the city. .,
 All charitable organizations will be aided by this group whose ann 1t is to establish @ sinking fund with which to start work on 8 conn munity center. The organization now boasts a membership of l50 with several prominent doctors, lawyers and business men taking an active part in activities.
 The local YMHA has been play ing an important role in state af- fairs and lately have sponsored sev- eral socials. They have also main tained a basketball team which rates highly with leading teams of the state.

and at the same time @ balanced budget.
 I recall that at the beginning of the last Congress, when In this column l urged . balanced budget but at the same time warned that any serious reduction In govern" meiit spending would produce . depression, many people very crit- ically asked me to make up my mind where stood. "You want the budget balanced but you want the government to spend and you don't even object to borrowing what are you talking about?"
 It is an amazing thing how long 1t takes to get @ simple problem of public finance understood.
 HOW TO BALANCE
 THE BUDGET
 The key to all this lies in the difference between government investment and government spend- ing. And the key to the present confusion about the federal budget lies in the failure to correctly dis- tinguish between these two things.
 The government can balance its budget now by adopting the rule of paying for relief and recovery efforts which produce no off.set- ting revenues out of tax revenues. Then it may engage in whatever adventures it chooses In the field of investment and raise the money for that purpose by means of bonds.
 If the government spends @ bile lion dollars for housing. raises the billion by issuing bonds, and then rents the houses for 6 sum suffi- ciert to pay the interest and amor tize the principal, there Is no need to Include those expenditures in the budget. If the government finds 1t necessary to subsldize such a housing development, the sub- sidy should be counted as an ex- penditure.
 INVESTMENT" COVERS
 MANY SINS
 It is this perfectly sound princi- pie which is now being misused. The plan now is to use the word investment" to cover Q multitude of expenditures which are not in. -vestment, Money spent on soil conservation, on WPA, on grants to states, on bridge and highway building which are outright ex. penditures and will never come back to the federal government, are not investments no matter how desirable the expenditures may be.
 Hat the discussion serves to out- line, not merely wise bookkeep- ing policy but . wise financial policy. That policy may be stated thus:
 That the government will en- gage in useful low-cost housing construction throughout the United States to be financed by govern- ment bond issues, the housing pro- duction to be operated on a basis to yield interest and amortization charges; that the government will at first subsidize housing develop ments in part but such subsidies to come out of tax moneys; and that all government expenditures not susceptible of recapture shall be paid out of tax money.

one to attend, subjected no one to cross examination; 1t simply in- yited everyone who had had any experience with profit . sharing schemes to come in and talk.
 It studied some 626 profit-shar- ing plans, and now Is preparing report which, when submitted, will lay before the American peo- plc -- not Q call for new lcgisla- ton, but simply set of facts which, Senator Herring hopes, will help point the way toward indus trial peace.
 BENEFITS
 ARE MUTUAL
 "Its been like e breath of fresh air." says Senator Herring. We've listened to all kinds of people--men like Dupont. Ford, Sloan and their kind, smaller business men, and any number of workers. We haven't heard any name-calling; instead we've heard business men telling how good their workers are, and workers telling how fair their boss es are.
 "We've found out that America has hundreds of thousands of sat- isfied workers, and hundreds Of socially minded employers who don't need legislation to make them treat men fairly. Our eW- dence showed industrial relations vastly improved by the profit sharing idea, and in each case the company's profits reflected the
 "The thing isn't 6 cure-all. It can't be applied to all industries, But should say that in 50 per cent of them 1t may be the an- swer to our troubles"
 When the Senator talks about committees here have made you profit-sharing, he does not mean the sort of ndow-dressing that has 50 often drawn the fire Of labor leaders - the plans under which the worker gets Q few ex- tra dollars c year all wrapped Up in c paternalistic company union scheme. To show what he does have in mind he cites at random c case from his files - the case of the Joslyn Company of Chicago. manufacturers of electrical equip- ment.
 RETIREMENT
 SECURITY The Joslyn employe makes . def- mite contribution to the fund. He can put in as little as c dollar c month, or he can put in more, to inaximbum of 4223 c year. The com. pany puts Up three dollars for his one, and the four-dollar total is in- vested.

EPISCOPAL WOMEN
 PLAN FOR FARLEY
Ladies' Aid to Send Dele- gati0n to New Haven
 January 30

Plans to attend the New Haven district midyear meeting of the Ladies' Aid ct the First Methodist church in New Haven, January 30 at 2 D. m. were discussed at the reg ular meeting of st. Paul's Method ist Episcopal Ladies Aid society, Wednesday.
 Members of the local group in- terested in attending the Elm City barley are requested to signify their intentions at their earliest conven- fence to Mrs. Asa Smith or Mrs. Lewis Sage who will be in charge of arrangements.
 Wednesdays meeting was held at the home of Mrs. Frank Meisirger and Mrs. Sage handled the gavel. The next meeting of the group will be held February at the home of Mrs. August Paul on Vermont street.
 Others attending were: Mrs. Hugh Sutherland, Mrs. Clara Plant, Mrs. Lillian Warner, Mrs. William Chick, Mrs. Henry Staples, Mrs. Emma Kippen, Mrs. David Wood, Mrs. John Moshier, Mrs. Henry Kuntz, Mrs. Wilson Miller, ST., and Rev. and Mrs. Samuel Johnson.

side securities; the company's three dollars are put into the company's own preferred stock-which, inci- dentally, is on the state of Illinois list of sound investment securities.
 Interest on the earnings of the fund thus created is compounded, and the whole is saved for the employe when he retires. Senator Herring recalls one specific case - of a worker who quit at the end of 20 years. during which time he had contributed on an average something like sl2 a month for Q total contribution of $2,900. The company had put up about 5000. What the man got when he retired was $20,000 enough to keep him comfortably in retirement to the end of his days.
 Of course, many workers could- n't afford to put Up as much as SIP month. But not many are ready to retire after just 20 years of serv- ice, either. A smaller sum put in over Q longer period, would bring much the same result. And the point, as Senator Herring sees 1t, is that the workers has security while he works. He can look for- ward to an old age of ease and contentment. And while he works he is just as interested as his boss in seeing that his company operates at Q profit.
 IT'S JUST
 GOOD BUSINESS
 "The plan sells itself. It helps both sides; in every case that l know Of, 1t has been good business for the employer. Stop and think about the 42,000,000 days of work that have been lost in the last two years because of strikes. Isn't any thing that makes workers contented instead of resentful, good business Isn't 1t good business to have more efficient labor force2 Isn't 1t gooe business to have 800 men, instead oi just one anxious, to sec a concerr make a proht?"
 "As 6 matter of fact" says thu senator, "it's having that effec already. Many, many business men have already set up profit sharing schemes because of wha they've learned since we started holding hearings"
