FEDERAL VERSUS LOCAL TAXES Since the early days of the republic, it has always been the national political campaign that has drawn most of the average American's attention. Load campaigns come and go almost unnoticed, some times. Time after time, an American city will elect a mayor and a city council, or city commissioners with more than half of the qualified voters failing to go to the polls. It is hard to get the voters out except in national campaigns. Yet the simple fact is that the average voter has a far greater financial stake in' his city and state elections than he does in the presidential and senatorial contests. ' I An example illustrating this poinUis given herein: In a midwest city an average American householder made his annual federal income tax payment recently. After he had made all of his authorized deductions, he found that he owed the federal treasury slightly less than one dollar. He paid it and went his way rejoicing. ;. Now this same man owns a house on which he is com pelled to pay taxes twice a year for the support of his city, county and state governments. These taxes average close to ?250 a year, and he pays them without audible complaint. Compare the two tax burdens that this man carries. Yet this man seldom bothers to vote except in a national election. He follows national politics keenly. He can tell you all about Herbert Hoover's record as a president; he can tell you fairly accurately what the senators from his state and the con gressmen from his district have lxen doing in Washington I in the past two years. But this nrin can hardly tell who are running his state and .hard time remembering the names of the members of his ': city council. While he knows the name of the governor of his state, he has no idea whether or not this official is pro viding an economical and honest administration. He cannot ! tell the names of the state representatives and senators from his district, nor what sort of public servants they are. He pays 250 times as much to support the local govern i j a. , . i -illt-IlliO t0 IIC UIA.O KKJ 0IJ'j-"V't V he knows next to nothing- about " It is quite certain that there i i , . . f . , . . . class, and this fact no doubt has 111,11 O .11.

Health Talks BIRNS A burn Is a dangerous injury and, though it may cover a relatively small area of skin, the outcome Is not infrequently fatal. For that reason an apparently su perficial burn often taxes the phys ician's skill, our latest studies hav ing shown that the body as a whole is affected by burns. The treatment of burns Is too fre quently thought of In terms only of the affected part or place. "What shall I put on the bum?" is the first question. While this is Important, systematic care and treatment having in mind the whole body are as vital, if not mere so. than the attention given the burned area. Local treatment in bums aims to allay pain, preserve the skin and burned areas, prevent infection and promote healing. The specific treat ment depends upon the type of burn, whether, for example, it is wet or dry. and upon the reaction -of -the. bedy' to the Injury:' In general, bums should fce dis- Married Woman Fear Gas Eats Only Baby Food "For 3 years I a:e only baby food. everything else formed gas.

Dubois i pointed out In a recent discussion of "Diet in Disease" our food habits , are largely a matter of local custom, j "We are accustomed." he said, "to three meals a day at certain i hours. The number of the meals i and the hours are largely deter-. mined by chance, and. as every wun uj uuwvi, - i , traveler knows, the number of meals I and the hours vary widely In dlf-1 1 ferent countries. "Primitive man probably got! along very well with wide variations ( in his meal hours. Different races : get along very well with enormous differences In food materials." In recent year the diet situation 1 has been highly complicated by the j : advent of high pressure salesman- f : ship. Scores of claims are made on . ' behalf of goods, some of which are ; ; only partially warranted and others , of which are without any basis in J fact. I Paralled with this agitation, ana i the general " Increased Interest In diet, there has developed the Idea thatd lets may be used as specific remedies, ' Dr. DuBois Quoted a book, "not a bad one." as he puts it, which gives a nutritious diet for "an adult, male. stock broker, under nerve strain"; a diet "for a traveling man who is liable to suffer from gastritis and chronic alcoholism."
