Rule Of Fat
May Lead to
Giant Race
BY &. b. LAL

International News service science Editor
DISCOVERY of a new yard
~ stick of human obesity" may
aid future scientists in develop
ing a race of "streamlined' hui
man giants.
Scientific Investigations con-
corning the relationship between
the breadth" and height OF
extraordinarily fat men and
women have been made at the
California Institute of Technol-
ogy. Pasadena, by Or. David p.
Willoughby.
Their results provide new clues
for the understanding of the
cause of extreme obesity, and
thus indirectly point towards a
scientific control Of heredity and
nutrition and the body'S glandu-
lar conditions so that well pro-
portioned human giants might
be developed.
THE possibility of human be-
l. ings of 8 10 10 feet statures
and of enormous weights. and
still quite normal. is revealed in
Doctor Willoughby's discussion
Of obesity in Human Biology"
a scientific publication OF Johns
Hopkins University.
Doctor Willoughby has devel-
oped a scientific yardstick. I'm
deX of body build" in terms of
the relationship between weight
and height. His rule is this:
Divide body weight in pounds
by height in inches, and divide
this again by height in inches:
then multiply by al for man, and
as for women. This gives the
relative obesity Of a person.
II this number is about unity,
the body is perfectly proper
toned. If the number is between
2.35 and 246 the former for
man and the latter for woman,
then the person has the greatest
possible obesity relative TO
height.
A PPLICATION of this method
"A of measurement showed
that Mrs. Ruth G. Pontico of
Tampa. Fla, was the worlds
--latest person"
In the annals of science. the
heaviest known person was a
man. Miles Darden of North
Carolina. who weighed over
1000 pounds. But his relative
obesity or overweight index was
less than Mrs. Pontico'S. because
his height was z feet s inches.

Private Enterprise

THE most heartenng news that has come to the
American people in long while is President Roose-
velts announcement that production factories
at all-time high record.
In his recent statement he told the nation that IN
May produced nearly 1000 arplanes than 800
tanks nearly 1000 artillery and antair.tank guns and
100000 machine guns and submachine guns
And that is only beginning, for by the end of the
year shall have 10000 airpanes, including $4,000
combat craft, and $4,000 tanks
This war, it is evident will be won in the ma
chine shops.
Our own rising production thus points to ultimate
victory for in machine production and inventive skill
rank first among all peoples.
And let not forget that what reaping today
in colossal victory production the result of the brains
Drawn stamina and resourcefulness of the 150yearold
American way-PRIvATE ENTERPRISE.
THIS work that we are doing is the most powerful
i argument that be used today against the plans
already ermentng in heads change the American
way after the to the colectivisor ensaving
way.
George L. Berry said truly and pointedy the other
day in address in Minneapolis
1T Is quite apparent to me at least that the
whelmng majority Of the people of the United States
will not embrace communism will they embrace
nazsm. because they know something about American
ISM its FREE ENTERPRISE and its LIBERTIES"
Nevertheless, Mr.. Berry also points out, there
will be struggle ahead ito preserve this economic order
that has made America great for the subverter and the
crackpot never die or resign.
OF COURSE mistakes have been made in the past
~ No system is 100 per cent perfect
But it is the American way-the system Of private
enterprise, with profts-that has WORKED and worked
better than any other system devised in the long
of history.
1t must be preserved at all hazards for is to that
system of private enterprise and its incentives and
wards that will in the future, do today
very life.
g, The greatness of our past wisdom in economies is
implied in every line of President Roosevets egitimatey
boasfu statement of what free industry and labor
doing.
The system that BUILT the nation is now
SAVING IT.

On Rubber
Condemned
Major Weakness in War.
CoIumnist Says
Monday. July 6, 1912
BY GEO. ROTHwELL BROWN

WASHINGTON, July 6.-FaiI-
ure to get into synthetic
rubber production on a huge
scale six months after the Pearl
Harbor attack constitutes one OF
our major weaknesses in the war.
The time has come for Con-
gress to 60 over the head OF
government authorities and deal
directly with the business OF
making rubber. from grain al
cohol, from petroleum, from
natural gas-any substance from
which it has been proved rubber
can be manufactured.
The leaders in Congress are
talking about 30-day vacation.
after the House enacts the new
taxation bill, and while the Sem
ate finance committee is consid-
ering II.
If Congress should take this
,ecess, W bout first having
passed the Gillette bill. or some
similar measure. establishing a
governmental agency to take
full control of the synthetic rub
Der problem. IL would be an act
of defeatism.
MOREOVER, / am OF the opin-
1VA ion that il members of the
Congress should return to their
homes without taking this action.
they will be confronted by an
enraged constituency. which, in
November, may decide to keep
them home for long time TO
come.
The administration has shown
that il possesses no grasp of the
seriousness of the rubber situa-
ton in this country.
In 1871 total of 1850, 900
tons of crude rubber were i'm
ported as against only 4S6. 900
tons in 1899. But in 1941 OPM
permitted consumption OF 1885,
900 tons despite the restrictions
placed on automobile produce
ton - that year.
Our civilian officials seemed
absolutely unaware Of the dan
ger of the possible cutting of
OF our rubber supply from the
Far East. As Senator Truman
said recently:
Garages OF non-strategic COM
modities were being brought
into the country I'm great guam
titles. utilizing bottoms that
might otherwise have been de-
voted To shipments OF rubber"
TO-DAY. more than six months
Il after the declarations OF
war, the administration seems
oblivious 10 the full implications
/ of the conquest OF the Dutch
East Indies and Singapore by
the japanese
If the war should end tomor-
row in American victory we
would still need synthetic rubber.
We shall probably need II for
many years 10 come
1t Is scarcely 10 be imagined
that. in the event Of Japan being
driven out Of the rIbber-produc-

and leave the rubber plantations
intact.
We have no exact information

tions. Undoubtedly Japan would
complete the destruction. in the
event she was obliged 10 retreat.
America must learn 10 Ice self

CREDO for Americans in 1912:

What the men of Valley Forge,

1 will suffer for liberty.
Communism is as destructive
of my American heritage as
Nazism and fascism.
Only one kind of ism shall be

Americanism.
No boondoggling! No stacking!
May 1 never forget our boys who

THE "idealists" are beginning
- to learn that in this world
there can be no liberty without
force.
Prof. Albert Einstein once
said:
Militant pacifism Is refusal
TO engage in war service OF any
kind, under any circumstances.
I advise recruiting for this ideal
all over the world"
Came Hitler-and the dawn in
Herr Einstein's mind. Now, as an
American, he says:
This war will come out well
for the democracies. We must
strike hard"
There is no more weakening
doctrine than pacifism. Nor is
there anything more weakening
than squashy idealism.
Everything in this world must
be fought for, and, above all.
that applies to liberty.
II is in danger every moment
in peace and war. If you want to
retain property rights in your
self you must go through life

u. s. Lottery
Urged to Help
Service Relief
Would Give $50 Million
Ann uoIIy, Boq kers Say
BY DAMON RUNYON

NOW, ladies and gentlemen.
there Is campaign afoet
to raise money for the Navy Re-
lief Society 10 take care of the
families of the men in tn t
branch of the service and even
very small contributions are re-
quested and welcomed.
The society needs $4,000 900
TO carry on its work. a sum
which sounds large but is a mere
pittance compared to some of
the government appropriations
for far less important purposes.
The regrettable feature IS
that the government does not
include moneys for the society
in these appropriations thus max
ing il unnecessary to pass the
cup among the general public
for one of the most laudable OF
all war efforts.
But the situation being what
il is. the society has no other
resource unless we can prevail
upon Congress to adopt my idea
of a federal lottery TO provide
for both army and navy relief.
AS 1 have told my readers
time and again, the lottery
would produce at least S250,000,-
600 a year and on that basis the
drawings in one year would
cover the relief requirements OF
the two branches OF the service
for considerable period and
leave something over.
With the government pro-
w posing 10 60 into business
with the operators OF another
form of lottery, the pari-mutuels
betting on horse racing, by inn
posing a 5 per cent tax on
Wagers, / see no reason why II
should not have its own exclu-
sive game and at the same time
relieve the public of At least a
small part of it's burden.
Every one willingly contrib
utes what they can 10 army and
navy relief, but the sum total OF
money that can be raised by
collections in theaters and else
where will be wholly inadequate
TO the needs OF the organizations
concerned.
II therefore strikes me as
foolish that the government does
not take advantage OF the easy
solution that presents itself,
especially il is practically waiv-
ing any of the moral phases that
might be involved in a gambling
enterprise by moving into a
business that is essentially gam
bling. There is no difference
between taking a cut out OF a
gambling joint and running the
joint yourself.
OF course | have realized all
along that the idea of the lottery
would meet with considerable
hostility among many members
of Congress who are afraid OF
adverse reaction 10 any support
they might give the lottery in
church circles in their homo dis
tricts, though som Of these
circles may foster the form OF
lottery known as bingo or en-
courage drawings for SUI h
prizes as defense bonds.
Congressman are always very
scary about church circles. and
are particularly so right now
