of war. This provision could have
been enacted as a separate meas
ure. Certainly, 1t was not neces-
sary to lift the embargo on arms
and ammunition to get this desir-
able legislation.
Court Test of Trade Treaties
Governor William H. Vanderbilt
of Rhode Island questions the con-
stitutionality of the Roosevelt-Hull
reciprocal trade program and an
nounces that he will initiate court
proceedings to test its legality If
he can find the proper method of
getting the matter before the
courts. There is little doubt that
the reciprocal trade law is uncon-
stitutional because it permits the
Administration to enter into trade
agreements, that are in effect treat
les, without approval by the SEN
ate, as provided by the Constitution
of the United States.
I can well understand the diff
ficulty that Governor Vanderbilt
will have in getting into court be-
cause to do so he must prove that
he has personally been injured by
such treaties. Every northern farm
er could qualify but know of none
who have the money to fight the
case through to the Supreme Court.
Thousands of manufacturers could
also qualify in bringing action but
apparently no one dares to do so
because this Administration has a
habit of cracking down" through
the Internal Revenue Bureau and
the Department of Justice on those
who oppose it. 1t is to be hoped
that Governor Vanderbilt will find
the way for getting into the court
because these trade agreements are
costing the American people mil
lions and millions of dollars year
through loss of the home market.
Uncle Sam Gets Cheap Money
Several days ago the Treasury
Department offered 91-day Treas
ury bills to the amount of $50 mil
lion dollars. The average price
paid was 99.993, equivalent to a
rate of 0.028%o. 1t is significant
that the government was offered
457 million dollars at this ridicul-
ously low rate. To me 1t is not a
good sign. 1t means that there
is no other outlet in which capital
cares to invest. What an indict-
ment on our whole fiscal policy.
How long can it continue.

RETURNED FROM
WESTERN JOURNEY
Splendid SOO0Mile Motor
Tour Enjoyed BY Mr.. and
Mrs. John MOndlOch

Mr.. and Mrs. John Mondloch re-
turned Saturday forenoon from an
extended trip through the Western
States and along the West Coast
They left Sank Centre on Septem-
Der 25th and covered 5000 miles by
automobile, without trouble.
Leaving this city they headed for
North Dakota and on the outward
trip made stops in Montana, Idaho
Washington and California. A short
trip to Tijuana. Mexico, added div
ersion. On the return journey they
went through Nevada, Utah, Ari-
IONA, Wyoming, Kansas, Nebraska
and Iowa.
In North Dakota, Montana and
California they visited with rela-
tives and friends, with their first
stop at Ignite, N. D., where they
spent some time with Mrs. Mary
Busch, sister of Mrs. Mondloch. At
Malta, Montana, they visited with
Johns brother-in-law, F a k
Schwartz; at Billings, Montana,
they stopped with Frank Sauer and
family, brother of Mrs. Mondloch ;
at Missoula, Montana, they called
on George Mann and family. They
were guests of cousins in California.
Sites of interest in the West were
trips to Peck's, Coulie, Bonneville
and Bowlder dams. The drive down
the Columbia River was beautiful
part of the journey. While at San
Francisco they attended the
Worlds Fair, which they said was
not very we'll attended during the
time they were there, although they
were informed that better crowds
attended later. They also made a
visit to the Catalina Islands and
they enjoyed a splendid time dur
ing their entire visit in the West.

Doctors Are Assured
OF Greater Victories
In Great War
Many Drugs Discovered;
Expect Blood Bonks' -.
To Reduce Losses III .ali

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Sept. 9.-In the new
war some of the greatest victories
would be won off the battlef1elds-
by doctors.
New drugs and treatments discov-
cred since the World War would
give physicians greater success than
ever before, medical authorities be-
lieve, in efforts to minimize the de-
struction of life and limb.
Besides saving larger propor-
ton of the victims Of gun and bay
onet, medical men expect to reduce
deaths and disability from infec-
tious diseases, from which more SOL
diers died during the World War
than were killed in action.
The American Medical Associa-
tion's officials have given the fol-
lowing picture of the role modern
medicine may play in another con-
f1ict:
The chief developments that prob
ably would result in more effective
medical treatment are:
Cd Blood banks" for quick trans
fusions.
ca Better treatments for gas
gangrene.
60 New immunity protection
before injury-against tetanus.
CO Greater control of communi-
cable diseases.
60 Portable X-ray machines.
60 Advances in surgery and
anesthesia.
Cd Improved treatments for burns.
90 More knowledge of nutrition.
Storage Depots for Blood.
England's preparations for war
include numerous cold storage de-
pots-for blood 1t has been clearly
demonstrated by physicians that
the immediate TRANSMISSION of whole
blood after a war wound saves the
lives of a high percentage of those
seriously injured.
In Spain's civil war physicians
at Jorda's Institute in Barcelona
found that blood transfusions saved
at lease 10 per cent.
DR.. Janet Vaughan of England's S
Medical Research Council told a
London meeting he did not think
it an exaggeration to say that in
the next war blood transfusions
would be "as important as ban
dages."
At 10 centers throughout Eng
land blood donors are being regis
tered. For Greater London and
Evening star., 1939-09-10

communities it was estimated $50 900
donors would be needed.
"Depots for the cold storage of
blood, each equipped with at least
10000 bottles and apparatus for its
collection and distribution, have
been arranged" an A. M. A. corre-
spondent related.
In the event Of food becoming
scarce, donors will be given extra
rations to maintain the quality Of
their blood"
And, when wars first victims fall
dead, another source of blood will
be available, for doctors have found
that mans usefulness does not cease
with death.
Blood for transfusions can be
taken from cadavers.
This blood can be taken as long
as six to eight hours after death.
Gas Gangrene Treatments.
Another medical advance has
been made in treating gas gangrene,
which has a death rate, even in
civil life, that the A. M. A. Journal
regards as "appallingly high
The dreaded infection is caused by
bacteria which goes deep into in

Four bosom companions arrived
here Friday in pursuit of a vision
of wealth flowing from the White
House, having made their way
from Placerville, Calf, on a budget
of just $l85.
But the money mirage disap-
peared-and yesterday District au-
thorities had forcibly separated the
four companions. They were a 49,
year-old World War veteran, Emile
Palamy: his six-year-old daughter,
Mabel Jennie; their small fox ter
rier, "Cappy.' and their rattletrap
sedan, of 1929 vintage.
They all came into town about
3 o'clock Friday afternoon. Cap
py and the car halted in the
1900 block of c street NV. while
the other two went to present them
selves at the White House

Roosevelt" police quoted them as
saying. Mr.. Palamy revealed that
he wished the President to give
him a pension.

case in the last war for one form Of
the diseases.
New portable X-ray machines
could be brought up behind the lines
to field hospitals, which had no
such equipment in 1918.
They probably would reduce or
simplify surgery otherwise necessary
to probe for bullets and foreign
matter.
Medical literature abounds with
reports of improved technique and
anesthetics for surgery, especially
neuro-surgery. Tremendous advances
have been made in surgery of the
brain, spinal cord and tumors Of
the nervous systems.
Improved equipment has been in
vented for administering general
anesthetics, and doctors now are
using new or improved spinal and
rectal anesthetics for many pur-
poses.
Psychiatrists report a better un-
derstanding of shell shock" and
functional nervous disabilities in
which no organic change can be
found to explain the symptoms.
This, doctors believe, would de-
crease the number of soldiers and
civilians disabled because of mental
disturbances rather than because of
any obvious physical injury.
New Treatments for Burns.
For burns, two new treatments
have been developed. Tannic acid,
introduced in 1925, has been &C
cepted as the best method, if given
within 48 or 72 hours after injury.
1t relieves pain, forms crust which
prevents loss of body fluid and acts
as an impervious membrane pre-
venting contamination of the wound.
A later treatment, employing a
dye that is antiseptic and protective,
has been proposed.
Better treatment has been found
also for trench mouth" or Vincents
infection, which disabled many SOL
diers in the last war.
Little can be said with certainty
about medical defenses against
poison gases, since many of the
remedies and some treatments are
closely guarded military secrets.
New discoveries regarding def
cheney diseases and optimum nutri-
ton make possible feeding soldiers
better balanced diet, possibly at
less cost. Doctors now have an in
creased knowledge also of vitamins
and their functions in resisting
disease.
Medicines advances offer the
hope. not that fewer will be killed,
but that more will be saved, so that
there will be, comparatively speak,
ing, few less crosses IN some otner
Flanders field.

Joyce Ki|mer Forest Spared
Blows of Woodsmun's Ak

ROBBINSVILLE, N. c., Sept. o.
Far back in the mountains of Gra-
ham County is a stand of timber,
much of it aboriginal, which will
never feel the woodsman's ak. Con-
trary to usual Forest Service prac-
tice (Which manages and harveSts
and replants forest land, the Joyce
Kilmer Memorial Forest will be pre-
served in perpetuity as tribute to
the man who wrote perhaps the most
widely known poem about trees.
The 3,800-acre tract might easily
have inspired Kilmer S verse. The
visitor entering it plunges into a
vast virgin forest. Giant poplars,
as much as 20 feet in circumfer-
ence, soar toward the sky, accom-
panied by hemlocks, huge red oaks
and many other varieties. This
unusual forest will be preserved as
a natural refuge for the trees the
poet revered.

Grace Line Reduces
Fares to West Coast

NEW YORK, Sept. 9.-Grace Line
today announced seasonal reductions
in passenger fares in its service be-
tween New York and ports of the
west coast of South America. This
service is maintained by the Santa
Lucia, Santa Barbara, Santa Maria
and Santa Clara.
Reductions in fares range up to
$50, depending on the length of the
voyage and the type of ship and
accommodations selected. The new
rates will be in effect southbound
from August IS to January 10 and
from March / to May 81; north
bound from September Is to jan
uary 81 and from June l to July Is.
In commenting upon the change.
D. Stewart Iglehart, president of
Grace Line, said that these reduc-
tions have been made in the hope
of increasing not only commercial
but social intercourse between the
United States and South American
countries and thereby encouraging
greater travel movement in both
directions throughout the year.

First Diner Served
Nine Meals on Trip

LONDON, Sept. 9.-Diners on
wheels are this year celebrating
their jubilee. The first English rail-
road dining car was attached to the
London-Leeds express in 1889. Only
nine meals were served on that trip,
whereas the four major English
lines now operate nearly 800 diners
and buffet cars and serve about
9,0000O meals a year.
In a single year British railroads
use 1,5O0 tons of meat, IS tons of
tea, 250000 gallons of milk. 1000
tons of potatoes, 120 tons of butter
and 900 tons of bread and rolls.
Sole, turbot and good roast beef are
the great favorites of diners.
