RE EDICINE is entering new era. In the
lvl period just ahead we can hope for final
conquest of diseases that up to now have baf-
fled research - heart disease, cancer, arthri-
tis, many forms of insanity. In the first half
of this century all emphasis was on microbes
and the diseases they caused. Research
finally eliminated in the discovery of the
valuable sulfa drugs.
Then attention shifted. 1t was known that
the soil was microbacterial battle-ground -
one species fighting to the death with another.
Why not employ substances produced by good
microbes to destroy man-killing microbes?
This line of thinking led to the antibi-
otics - penicillin, streptomycin, chlOrO-
mycetin and others.
This work provided springboard for long
leap into an entirely new area. The shift now
so new that many physicians have yet to
read its portents - is toward cure OF disease
with natural body substances, in other words -
body hormones.
Balance II Upset
BY THIS new concept, the human body isn't
an ill-assorted collection of more or less indie
pendent organs. 1t is highly integrated
system in delicate chemical balance. Present
evidence indicates that vast array of dis
eases - from gout to asthma to dementia
praecox - may trace to an upset of this
balance.
The organs that keep us chemically bal
anced are the ductless glands = which empty
their hormones directly into the bloodstream.
Physicians have studied these glands and
their secretions for decades. They learned
that when insulin from the pancreas is lacking,
human being is unable to burn sugar into
energy. Supply the insulin and sickly, half
alive diabetic becomes healthy, robust
human being.
They noted that when thyroid substance

from the neck gland was IN snort supply, the
victim led a sleepy, mentally sluggish exist
ence. Shots or pills of thyroid substance
made these victims come alive But in each
case. physicians were thinking in terms of a
single target - supplying the lack of secretion
from single gland to overcome single
disease.
Cobwebs Bxushed Away
l HEN they began to notice battling "over-
lap" effect. Great walloping shots of insulin
- enough to produce shock and coma -
seemed to brush cobwebs from minds de-
ranged by some types of insanity! Why, no
one knew. Along this same line cancer of the
breast is altered by the influence of female
sex hormones. This fact suggested treat
ment. Massive doses of sex hormone were
administered, and many women in the last
stages of breast cancer got marked felief. The
same technique is used in treating cancer of
the prostate in men. Small quantities of
chemical substances from female glands re-
lieve men of much of the pain associated with
this type of cancer. Mark one point: these
procedures are treatments - not cures
An entirely new concept of the Importance
OF glands began to develop. Indeed, it be-
came clear that glands play a major role
in making us what we are emotion
ally, physically, sexually, mentally. A
faulty gland in the body is much like faulty
spark plug in an automobile engine. The NAL
functioning of Just one throws the entire sys-
TEN out of kilter.
In this new therapy, large doses of hor-
mones are administered with the deliberate
purpose of throwing the patient out of hor-
monal balance Some i'll effects result, but
dramatic good results have shown up in unex-
pected areas. As new hormones are isolated,
results already obtained promise to conquer

for more than 90 years.
DR.. Moore, an aloof professor of
Greek and Oriental literature in
the Episcopal Seminary in New
York, wrote the poem on Christ

seven children.
He had not planned for the poem
to 60 further than his own family,
but a relative who was visiting
the Moores put a copy in her diary.
The next year the relatives father
sent it to newspaper.
Other newspapers printed TIE
jingles and they quickly became
known all over the country. The
dignified DR.. Moore was embar-
rassed and considered it beneath
man of his scholastic standing
to be the author of children S

Twenty-Five years later, how
ever, he finally publicly edmitted
authorship of the jingles and it was
published in book form under his
name for the first time.

PROFITEERING. CURLING LEGISLATION MUST BE
ENACTED, SAYS Clio ECONOMIC OUTLOOK

The September Economic Outlook
estimates that corporation profits
during the second half of 1850 are
piling up at the record rate of near
ly $23 billion year, and commented
that profits "in many of the postwar
years had gotten beyond any bounds
that could be described as legitimate. .
The Outlook, published by the Clio
Department of Research and Educa-
ton, said that the outbreak of fight
ing in Korea had increased the need
''for legislation to curb profiteering
as we'll as to help pay the expenses
of our new military efforts.
"Under the impact of the new de-
Tense effort, they corporation pro-
fits will go even higher" the Out
look said can effective excess pro-
fits tax will help curb speculation and
profiteering, which otherwise will in
evitably seize large sections of Ameri
can business.

corporate tax rate will not suffice"
the CLIO publication said. at can
easily be passed onto consumers in
the form of higher prices.
can excess profits tax which would
capture nearly all of the profits
which are judged to above normal,
leaves less room and less incentive
for price raising and profiteering."
During the postwar years, the
Outlook said, profits were piling up
"at such rate that business was
using profit for purposes which went
far beyond the normal operation of
the enterprise system. They were be-
ing used to foster monopoly and
to pile up huge cash reserves. The
enormous accumulation of undistri-
buted profits by 1949 was already
the very levels of employ
ment production"
The Outlook said that mo one can
quarrel with any businesses making
q legitimate profit the need for
legitimate reward should not be con-
fused, however, with profiteering and

quarter of 1850, profits were running

higher than In the previous record
year of 1913, and that they would
go even higher as a result of mobili-
cation activities.
The 1850 profit figure may be
about A u times higher than in 1889,
the Outlook indicated, and more than
twice as high as the peak wartime year
of 1914, when profits after taxes
amounted to sos billion. In 1916,
profits after taxes amounted to $3.50
billion; in 1947, $18.5 billion, and
5000 billion in 1948. In 1949 they
had slipped back to about SIT billion.
Embarrassing
These profits, the Outlook COM
mented, have '1ent tremendous
strength and power to American cor
porations, and profit figures have
grown so high as to ''embarrass many
businessmen"
"a virtual profession has grown up
in business circles, and indeed, in
some academic halls, devoted to the
preparation of emergency defenses
and rationalizations for these pro-
fits" the Clio publication said.
&C.. These high accumulations of
earnings are kind of Gin
equity capital They are an inequita-
BILE form of capital in that they are
drawn out of the hides of workers
and consumers, who are cast in the
role of underwriting vast new facili-
ties without receiving any share in
running these new operations, with
out any share in deciding when or
where they should be started"
In 1929, the Outlook recalled, bus
mess paid out in dividends about $40
of it's profits after taxes. In 1947,
dividend payments amounted to only
$3.50 of profits, and in 1889 to 1870.

HAS The RACKET BUSTER
TURNED RAcKETEER?

Current reports from New York
would indicate that the Gamblers
and Policemen now being investi-
gated are not the only crooks in
that part of the country.
Lieutenant Governor Hanley of
New York state has just released for
publication a letter he wrote one of
his Republican supporters o'm
months ago, outlining his reasons for
backing away from the Governors
race and filing for the U. S. Sen
ate. Hanley seems to be quite sur
prised that his opponents would in
terpret the statements in the letter
as promise Of "pay-off'-but
here is one of the statements:
''If | will consent to take the NOM
ination to the United States Sen
ate, / am definitely assured of be-
ing able to clean up my financial
obligations, within 80 days" An
other problem was solved, Hanley adj
ded, when Dewey assured him that
if he was was beaten for Senator,
there would be some sort of a good
state job for him.
Of course, this is not bribery, just
a Republi an Promise! Both Dewey
and Hanley insist that there was
nothing transpired at their meetings
that could be looked upon as Brib-
cry or Coercion?
In Rochester, New York-Frank
Cannot, publisher of a group of news
papers land long prominent Repub-
lican, called for a Grand Jury investi-
cation, stating that the letter revealed
corruption in political affairs. He
also stated that he loaned Hanley
$4,000 to help finance his pre-con-
vention campaign.
Was this 10000 a loan or was
it a political contribution to Hanley
from Cannot?
heartily agree with Mr.. Cannot
that there should be Grand Jury in
vestigation of this case, as this could |
be one of the most fragrant cases
of Political corruption that has ever
been brought to the attention of the |
voting public-and even the Cover
nor of the State of New York is not
too big to be brought into court for
corruption.-THE OLD TIMER.

taking about 100000 barrels of oil

The court also is expected to be
asked to decide the question of bound
aries between federal and state con-

Der William Mason, in a radio speech
over KOPR last Sunday evening, APP
pealed to business people in Butte,
Anaconda and Great Falls to hold
the line against further price in
creases, and especially price increases
made on the strength of the ten
cents per hour wage boost won by
Mine-Mill local unions.
After expressing gratitude to the
business people of these points for
their support of Mine-Mill in its
fight against the steelworkers raid
ers, and acknowledging that price
rises were often beyond the con-
troll of local business people, be-
cause of the profiteering practices
of outside wholesalers, Mason adj
ded:
al earnestly request that there
be no further price increases, loc-
ally, made on the basis of the re-
cent wage raise gained by members
of our Union. Let the gain be

500 MEN TO BE NEEDED
In MANGANESE
PRODUCTION

WASHINGTON--The U. S. Blu
reau of Mines and the Munitions
Board have approved a 4-year con-
tract with the Domestic Manganese
Production Company, of Butte, for
production and processing of man
ganese ore for the Nations stock
pile, Sen. Murray's office announced
Tuesday.
Ore depsits are located in the Butte
and Philipsburg mining districts in
Montana.
1t is expected that the company will
employ approximately 100 men at
its Butte mill and that the mining
operations to supply ore for the mill
will employ an additional 200 men.
John H. Cole, President of the Do
nestle Manganese Company would
arrive in Washington, October 10th

NO NEED FOR COMPULSORY
CONSOLIDATION

Although for several years, pro-
ponents of school district consolida-
ton have contended that the only
way such consolidation could be
by legislative ,compulsion, the facts
indicate otherwise.
Whereas, in 1888 Montana had g.
131 districts, today there are only
1921. This represents a decrease of
nearly 40 per cent-and all by volun-
tary action. Further, additional de-
creases can be expected in the next
year or two because many of the dis
tricts still officially IN existence have
not conducted classes for one or more
years, and they too will cease to be
within a short period of time.
