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

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

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-.

traveler knows, the number of meals
I and the hours vary widely In dlf-1

"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

a nutritious diet for "an adult, male.

a diet "for a traveling man who is
liable to suffer from gastritis and
