SAFETY

Bad weather, more hours OF
darkness and the Christmas holt
day rush are factors cited by the
National Safety Council as being
responsible for what Is termed
"the Yuletlde massacre" in ad-
dition the "geniality OF the sea
son" results in a natural tendency
on the part OF officials 10 be lenl.
ent toward traffic offenders.
The analysis Is put forth in an
effort 70 curb seasonal accidents
and, IL possible, 10 make this De-
cember's record OF death and IN
jury somewhat better than those
OF recent years.
One thing is certain: There must
be cooperation between motorists
and pedestrians II the unavoidable
natural conditions that cause &C.
cidents are TO be successfully over
come.
This. obviously. is a meritorious
objective toward which every
citizen, II only as a matter OF self
interest. should energetically
strive.

IT'S SPIRIT THAT colINrs

DO people spend too much money
on Christmas gifts? Some people
think so, and say that in many
cases these gifts represent a trade
which givers and receivers would
gladly terminate were it not for
the fear OF giving offense.
In former ages, gifts were offer
ed largely TO buy favor and friend
ly relations. In early colonial days
gifts played large part in winning
the favor OF the Indians. II some
colony was niggardly in these
gifts the red warriors went on
the warpath TO seek some CORY
palefsce sea ps.
II the colony changed its policy
and handed over rich stores Of
traps and tools and guns which
. the Indians wanted, the red men
became very brotherly, and peace
was apt to eign. SO It usually
was, in the more primitive life OF
nations. II war threatened, peace
might often be purchased by an en-
bassy which brought rich presents.
Some people offer gifts In that
spirit today, but favor brought with
gifts Usually withers with memory
OF the giver II Is one OF the
signs OF world progress that now
as usual thing gifts represent
real friendship and love.
A principal regret at the Christ
mas season is that there are still
very many for whom Christmas
brings little good cheer and happ'.
ness. Christmas giving will not
be all II should be until such
are remembered and given their
share Of happiness.

A BIG ARMY

There are indications that the
War Departments munitions pro-
gram and the CONSUMPTION system
envisages eventual creation OF al
army OF 100000 men.
A report of the Foreign Policy
Association traces the revision Of
War Department plans for an in
tial protective force from Dec.
1889, when former Secretary OF
War Harry II. Woodring told a
congressional committee of plans
for an initial force of 100000, $780,
600 or 100000. BY July, 1910 the
army program was based on a pro-
tective mobilization plan providing
for about 100000 men, while crit
zeal items OF equipment were be-
ing sought 10 maintain an army. OF
100000 men.
In August the plan for 100000
10 100000 men was said TO pro-
vide only initial cover for defense
OF the Northern Hemisphere, and
the Caribbean.
To protect the integrity OF the
entire Western Hemisphere, the
general stan believes we may re-
quire 100000 OF more, because
our obligations are scattered in so
many directions.
The report finds grounds for
concern" in the gap which sepa-
rates proposal and performance
by the army. declaring that the
army as it exists today is but
nucleus for the great force OF the
future. In two respects-Inateriel
and personnel-it is and must re-
main deficient for many months to
come. For this, responsibility
must be divided between Congress.
the Bureau OF the Budget, and the
nation on the one hand, and the
War Department on the other.
In the 16 years, 1925-40. $s54.-
$4,000 was devoted TO augmenta-
ton, modernization and replace
ment OF arms and equipment. The
War Department has been censured
for lack OF vision and imagination
in planning for the future. IL has
been accused OF delaying the adop-
ton OF new weapons: ordering
constant changes in design and
unduly complicated specifications
instead OF rushing production: and
retarding progress by excessively
bureaucratic n-Ocadure
This may be partly true and
good corrective measure ight be
the appointmeh. OF a national de
Tense commission composed OF both
civilians and representatives Of the
armed services to formulate the
military program in relation to our
foreign policy.

take in some tuberculosis germs
in the early years of their lives,
but in most cases the body brushes
them out, engulfs or overcomes
them.
1t is like the story of the father
who met a member of the faculty
at a school dinner. 81 think" he
said, my son took algebra from
you" "Not exactly" replied the
professor. "he was exposed to it,
but he didn't take it."
William Osler, in one Of the
most brilliant passages Of his
textbook on the practice Of medi-
cine, compared the process to the
New Testament parable of the
sower.
The sower, you remember, went
forth to sow, and some seeds fell
by the wayside and the fowls Of
the air came and devoured them
up" These are the tuberculosis
germs that enter the body, but are
engulfed by the phagocytes of the
blood. "Some fell upon stony
places" These are the germs that
enter the kind of body which has
the kind Of chemistry that is I'M
favorable to their growth: just as
elms do not grow in the desert,
nor cacti by the river valley.
"Some fell among thorns and the
thorns sprang up and choked
them" This represents the cases
of tuberculosis in which the germs
get Judgment and little start.
but the connective tissue and
phagocytic cells Of the body sur
round them and prevent them
from spreading. "But others fell
upon good ground and sprung up
and brought forth fruit an hun
dred fold" Those are the cases
that develop active { tuberculosis
and which are costing our coun-
try millions Of dollars and for
which the sale of Christmas seals
is helping to pay.
Adults Can Catch tuberculosis
A change, in fact a double
change, has come over the opinion
Of the world of science in regard
TO the kind of people who become
infected with tuberculosis. Forty
years ago, or thereabouts, we
were taught that young people of
10 to % were most liable to 1t.
Then the idea arose that tubercu-
losis always began in childhood:
that usually under the age Of 5
years child brought into contact
. with a person with tuberculosis
will develop a. form Of tubercu-
losis that remains latent until
about the age Of II and then be-
comes manifest in the adult form.
According to this idea, adults do
not catch it as a primary conta-
gion. But studies on young doc
tors, nurses and attendants at
tuberculosis sanitariums indicate
that adults can catch it. And it is
now believed that there is very
large population of those brought
up on farms who never had tuber-
culosis, have never been exposed
to it, and have no immunity to it.
If they were to be exposed now in
adult life, it rs feared the disease
would be very virulent. In the
face of the draft, this is a serious
situation and must be vigorously
guarded against.
