BY LOGAN CLENDENING, M. D.


FOUR OR five years ago my
friend, DR.. Stuart Pritchard, told
me when we met at medical So
ciety meeting that he was going to
retire from the active practice of
medicine. deprecated this because
he was a brilliant diagnostician in
diseases of the lungs, one of the
foremost authorities on tuberculosis
in the United States.
He replied that he had something
bigger in mind. He had, he felt, in
his work in life that far only been
trying to drain a stagnant lake by
taking an eye-dropper full of scum
my water from it's surface at a
time.
Now he had an opportunity to
show what thoroughly planned en-
cheering scheme would do to a
stagnant human lake of disease and
maladjustment. He said he prob
ably would be criticised by the pow
ers that were for violating certain
principles in medical ethics, but
he then consigned them to a place
graphically described by a Signor
Dante in a highly-praised little eff
fusion published in the thirteenth
century.
Danish Disease
What he was going to do, he said,
was to show that disease and hui
man suffering could be banished
from the earth or, at least, to make
a more reasonable statement, re-
duced to a point where they could
be discerned only by diligent search.

that he was somewhat over-enthu-
siastic, but it appears he has made
good.
What happened was that the w.

Creek, Michigan, donated enough
money = $46,000,000 = to demon

near Battle Greek, with a popula-

hour. She found herself shivering
more and more, and she was hun
gry-so hungry. And the darkness
was so terrifying. The bushes and
trees, so inviting in the heat of the
monday sun, seemed to take on
strange shapes. They seemed to be
moving, closing in on her like
great, hungry animals, nearer,
nearer, until she had to shut her
eyes to keep out the sight of them.
And then she could still hear them
moving, moving.
She sprang up, at last, unable to
stay quiet any longer. And then,
peering through the darkness, she
saw that there really was some
thing moving. A dark shape loomed
suddenly on the path so near that
she could have reached out and
touched it. A mans shape. New
terror gripped her, then, and she
shrank back on her bench again.
Suppose it were a policeman and
he told her to move (on! Where
could she go?
Then she saw the outline Of a
head above the bushes and she
knew it was no policeman. And
in that instant she knew, also, that
she was going to speak to him.
Whoever he was, she'd speak to
him. And whatever followed would
have to follow. She was finished
with struggling. She'd leave things
up to fate. If he was a good man,
all right. And if he wasn't-make
him be a good man, she began
praying crafty. Make him be
a good man.
When he was almost upon her,
he paused, and a match famed sud-
denly. In it's light she saw his face
as he bent to shelter the cigaret he
was trying to light with his cupped
hand. A little sob of relief escaped
her. He was the man of the board
ing house! The man who had taken
her room.
At the sound Of her sob, he
looked up, startled. Then the match
died down and he was on the bench
beside her.
what are you doing here?" he
asked, and at the sharpness in his
tone the tears Iona had kept back

The T. V. A. Decision

The refusal of the Supreme Court
to decide the constitutional ques-
tions involved in the operation, of
the Tennessee Valley Authority is
disappointing. It had been hoped
that this ruling would settle once
and for all the controversy as to
whether the Government, in carry
ing out the Tennessee Valley expert
ment, was violating the Constitution,
but the court in effect has said that
the legality of the undertaking must
remain permanently in doubt.
The five justices who concurred in
the majority opinion took cognizance
of the fact that T. v. A. was in COM
petition with some of the private
utilities and agreed that this COM
petition will result in serious damage
to the private concerns. But, said
the court, the existence of Govern
ment competition invaded no legal
right of the utilities since their char
ters did not give them exclusive
rights in the States in which they
operated. In other words, the &C
ttons Of the T. v. A. may be uncon-

since 1892, four of the lenders acting
for persons or firms involved in
litigation in Judge Manton's court.
Although these loans, for the most
part, have not been repaid, those
advancing the money were victorious
in the court cases, with Judge Man
ton voting in each case in favor OF
his alleged creditor, according to
Mr.. Dewey.
If Mr.. Dewey has correctly stated
the facts, it would be difficult to
conceive Of a situation more con-
ducive to perversion of justice.
Transactions such as those alleged by
Mr.. Dewey are not easily susceptible
of an innocent Interpretation, and 1t
is the clear duty of the Department
Of Justice to ascertain whether, in
fact, they took place. If so, there
should be no hesitation in taking
appropriate action against both
Judge Manton and those responsible
for making the loans.

stitutional and may result in the de-
struction OF the private concerns, but,
even so, the latter cannot appeal to
the courts because the law affords
them no protection from even illegal
Government competition. The court,
of course, did not say that the activi-
ties of T. v. A. are unconstitutional,
but it was made clear that the utili-
ties could not have challenged them
had there been no doubt on that
score.
The implications of the opinion are
somewhat disturbing for, as a prac-
tical proposition, it suggests that,
so far as the courts are concerned,
the Government may, with impunity,
engage in unconstitutional competi-
ton with it's citizens. It is difficult,
at any rate, to see how any one could
challenge such conduct in this case
if the private utilities could not
do so.
So far as the future is concerned,
1t would seem that the utilities in the
areas affected by r. v. A. can only
hope for a moderation of Govern
ment policies, or for an opportunity
to sell their holdings at fair price.
Obviously, any prolongation of the
fight against the Federal agency will
be futile.

Caused fiercest internal distress,
A mothers fond care would compel us

Some treatment whose pain was no

Than the i'll that with mustard she

And when we complained all we could
Shed bring new poultice and tenderly
say,

And now when a man with oer-confl-

Sees himself with hard luck face to

Or when great nation awakens to find
It has started too careless a pace,
Fate seems to be whispering softly and

How life is but half understood,
And to say as complacency's plunged

note the opposition developing to
the new road on the roadbed of the dis
continued w. B. e. A. Railway.
Those persons on the present Washing
ton-Baltimore boulevard who express
opposition should remember their previ-
GUS loud cries for improvement of their
roadway. Persons in small villages and
towns along the old w. B. & A. bought
their land in good faith because trans
portation was available. Since the dis
continuance Of the road many have had
to move in because their access to en-
ployment had been cut of or rendered
very difficult. They are entitled to the
road. It is necessity and no selfish
considerations should develop opposition
to the project.
The road once completed can be very
easily joined to New York avenue by
the building Of connecting road through
Dodge Park, Landover and Tuxedo.
Such action would tend to open up
new areas for building operations, thus
providing additional revenue to the State
of Maryland, as well as giving many

Vicurious Mother

Down under, in Waikato, New
Zealand, Mr. Harold Ryder was bored
stiff. He was obliged to stay in a
hospital for weeks, with a long spell
of Illness. He had worked all the
jig-SaW puzzles, even the ones with
twenty pieces missing, and read all
the tWenty-year-old novels, and was
now reduced to watching new pa
tients come in. Some of these were
maternity cases, and that gave him
an idea. Bribing nurse to get him
a raw egg from the kitchen, he took
it to bed with him and incubated it.
The secret was we'll kept, and tWen-
ty-six days later there was a blessed
event In the form OF a White Leghorn
chick. Both Mr.. Ryder and chick
are reported doing well, but the hos
pital is still annoyed with him for
not having told the doctors in ad-
vance so they could have sent him
to the maternity ward, where all
births are supposed to take place.
To reporters, Mr.. Ryder with true
masculine modesty, stated that his
remarkable feat was really nothing
at all. He recommends maternity
as a career for unemployed men,
and says that all any man needs for
successful motherhood is a little pa
tience and perseverance. The notion
that there is anything painful or
dangerous in it is mere feminine
propaganda, he says, and may be
entirely discounted. At no time did
he feel any i'll effects, and he doubts
if any one in his situation ever did.
He feels great pride in his offspring,
and wants the doctors to quit max
ing so much fuss over him. He wants
to go home right away with the
chick, which is no longer on the bot
tie, and is eating solid food such as
cereal and egg shells. In fact, MIR.
Ryder has only one regret. It would
have been just as easy, he says, to
have hatched out whole dozen, and
transferred the record from Canada
to New Zealand.
