"HAD CONSTIPATION
SINCE BIRTH OF
MY FIRST CHILD"
Then Mrs. King Discovered
1 All-Bran" " '
Wo quote from her voluntary
letter:
. "I have suffered from terrible
constipation since the birth of my
first child 9 years ago! I have
tried everything and nothing had
any lasting results. Very reluc
tantly I tried your 'All-Bran' with
no faith in it at all. Much to my
surprise, I have not had to take
any medicine since starting to use
All-Bran, 4 months ago." Mrs.
Doris Eyre King, 16 Abbey Road,
Oxford, England.
Laboratory tests show All-Bran
contains two things which over
come constipation: "Bulk" to ex
ercise the intestines; vitamin B to
help tone the intestinal tract.
The "bulk" in All-Bran Is much
like that of leafy vegetables. In
side the body, it forms a soft mass,
which gently clears the intestines
of wastes.
Certainly this is more natural
than taking patent medicines
often harmful. Two tablespoonfuls
daily are usually sufficient. If not
relieved this way, see your doctor.
1 All-Bran also supplies iron for
the blood. At all grocers. In the
red-and-green package. Made by
Kellogg In Battle Creek.
"I've been good and you call
me bad now look out!"

WATCHMAN INJURED

ously wounded, Fish flagged the pilot
train, that ran as a safeguard ahead
of the president's special, when It
came along and railroad police and
secret service men searched the road
bed and vicinity.
Twenty additional sticks of dyna
mite in a sack were found along the
Western Paclflo right-of-way, above
and 400 feet from the rails upon
which the Bpeclal train was running.
Lowe said there was no Indication
that any attempt had been made to
tamper with the rails or to dynamite
the roadbed or the president's train,
but was unable to explain the pres
ence of the explosive.
Tho special train was delayed 40
minutes while railroad police and
special agents aboard the pilot train
Bcarched the right-of-way and coun
try nearby for. trace of the two men
described by Fish. Lowe said.
John F. Chester, -Associated Press
staff correspondent accompanying the
president, said none aboard the spe
cial knew of the attack on the watch
man and that secret service agents
aboard said they knew nothing of the
dynamite being found.
Fish, Southern Pacific officials said,
was taken to Carlln, Nev., on a gaso
line speeder after the train continued
on toward California. His condition
was not serious, they said.
Sheriff Harris said he had sent a
deputy from Elko to learn . details
of the attack but had heard nothing
from him.
When the train arrived here It was
still 20 minutes behind schedule and
stopped only long enough to change
engines for the run up the Truckee
river to cross the Sierra Nevada
mountains through Dormer Pass and
into California.
Railroad officials said the presi
dent and all his party were asleep
when it passed through here.

Too Rapid Production of Energy
i Blamed For Economic Disruption
(Editor's Note: This Is the first,
' of two articles disclosing major
I results of an exhaustive research
into the meaning of the machine
j age. The research, now going
on at Columbia university, New
: York, deals especially with the
i effect of the machine on employ
j.ment and the nation's resources,
' and reveals some startling facts.)
; By J. It, Braekett
(Copyright, 1032, By Tho Associated
: Press) ,
NEW YORK WV-For 7000 years, up
to the beginning of the last century,
the consumption of the earth's re
source per person every day did not
change appreciably.
Then, suddenly, man found the
machine, nnd today in the United
States, only 100 years later, consump
tion per person Is 75 times greater,
nnd two-thirds of this Increase has
come since 1000.
These aro major findings of a 10
yoar research by Technocracy, the
tltlo given a research group of tech
nicians and engineers working at
Columbia university under direction
of Howard Scott.
In these findings, Scott says, lies
the basic cause of the present dis
tress, and they foreshadow even
greater distress in the future.
' In ancient Israel, Egypt, Greece,
Rome, during the founding of Eng
land, the power of Napoleon, the be
ginnings of tho United States, man
a to food, woro clothes nnd burned
fuel to warm his home. These were
tho principal Items consumed, and
their consumption represented energy
consumption. Exclusive of food, man
man consumed 2000 calories a day
a calory being a measure of energy.
At the-beginning of the last cen
tury man began to use the steam
engine. The engine required coal,
oil and water power. Their produc
tion was for man, bo man, In effect,
consumed the energy necessary for
the machines.
' ; Thus, besides tho Items necessary
for his physical exlstenco man now
uses other of tho earth's resources
and at the rate of 150.000 calories
per capita a day, exclusive of food.
This represents a gain of 76 times
In a little more than a century after
7000 static years, most of the gain
coming in the last 30 years calory
.consumption being 46,000 calories per
capita per day in 10 00.
i .This extremely rapid gain In a so
ciety entirely unprepared for it has
produced similarly rapid economic
gains and also violent fluctuations
In the economic cycle, Scott says.
Energy production remained at the
rato of 2000 calorics a day for 7000
years. Suddenly It expanded.
( 'The expansion was quite smooth
although rapid up to 1000, then It
became moro. rapid and began to
fluctuate violently because the social
'mechanism could not adapt Itself to
tho Increasingly quick change.
M. Fluctuation In energy produced re
sulted In fluctuation In production
,of goods, thus fluctuation in employ
ment and economlo distress.
' - Tho fluctuations are the basic
causes of tho present depression, and
they tend to gain in violence as me
chanical efficiency Increases, Scott
says, producing even more disastrous
mellowing, are then given the
benefit of that Lucky Strike puri
fying process, described by the
words "It's toasted". That's
why folks in every city, town and
hamlet say that Luckies are such
mild cigarettes.
It's toasted"
That package of mild LuckU
economlo changes, unless the method
of operating the machine Is changed.
In 1840 . the United States had
slightly more than 12,000,000 popu
lation and was witnessing the crude
beginnings of the new means of
energy transverslon, that Is, finding
new machines, fuels and ways to use
them to do work the steam locomo
tive, for example.
At that time the nation was pro
during from coal and timber less
than 75 trillion B. T. U. (a measure
of energy) in order to drive Its sim
ple machines, its factories, ships and
to carry on other activities.
In 1020 the United States had a
population of 120.000.000, an Increase
of 10 times over 1840, but energy
produced had risen to almost 27,000
trillion B. T. U., or 363 times as
much as in 1840. Most of this In
crease occurred after 1900, for In that
year production was 2840 trillion
B. T. U.
The, United States has produced
energy (and with It the amounts of
goods, since energy is necessary for
all forma of production) much faster
than the growth of the population
and much faster In the last few years
than It was possible for the people
to consume the production.
These facts point out with a new
vividness, Scott says, that society has
passed from the time only a cen
tury ago when it moved at the speed
of an ox-cart in a society equipped
tb move at that rate and has entered
on era. in which It Is moving at the
i speed of an airplane In a society
zunaamenrauy uncnangea , in eco
nomlo and social metiiods.
And, Scott says, unless the nation
can Improve its methods of control
ling the Boaial vehicle society Is
likely to collapse Into wreckage the
like of which man has never seen
before.
Only by adopting the technic now
used for administering some of the
more efficient Industries and then
with Improvements In the whole sys
tem can society function successfully
In the face of the new advances.
Scott says. ' ' , '
