BUSINESS? HEADED SLOWLY Hy basic conviction is that inf; slowly toward a normal economic condition iid will reach it some time within the year 1931," says John E. Ednei'ton, president of Hie National Assoeiation of Manufac turers, in the August issue of The Kevicw f Reviews, where ho surveys the national process of recovery from the recent busi ness lump. The upward turn toward recovery already has been reached, Mr. Edncrton believes, and the upon the readiness of pessimists to cease bemoaning their busi ness losses and set themselves to regain lost ground. "Such pessimism as exists is the result, I think, of taking the abnormally prosperous years since the World War as the basis for comparing the conditions of this year," he says. "There; have been ninny of the first HO in all respects more unhappy live. While the pane of our economic progress has undoubtedly slackened for a period, we arc without doubt still moving for ward, even if it is at present by almost imperceptible degrees.'- PICI!1LPS the brightest spot in the American economic out- look at present is the fact that industry generally has had the courage to maintain wages which will insure a continuance of the high standard of living on which recent prosperity was achieved, his Review of Reviews article points out. "The greatest concern that manufacturers in general now have is not over the prospect of no profits or small profits, hut for the keeping of their people employed without the necessity of reducing wages," says Mr. Kdgerton. "There lias been very little evidence- of a disposition on the part of industrial em ployers to recede, except under irresistible pressure, from tho high wage standards which constitute a part of the basis of our economic prosperity." WAR BETWEEN FRANCE AND ITALY CAN COME AT ANY MOMENT' f7All between France and ' inenl, with little or no warning, as suddenly as the onset of tliti world conflict l(i years ago," in the opinion "of Frank J I. Simonds, widely known war correspondent and au thority on international relations. Mr. Himonds, the most widely quoted observer attending the recent London Naval Conference, believes that the London meet ing proved a Climactic point in the relations of Italy anil France and revealed their differences to Writ-ill,' in The Review of predicts it war begun by Italian aggression against France, which1 will involve most of thd nations of continental Europe, unless ("ireat Britain acts to forestall such; a conflict. ho single real guarantee France, not perhaps today or result of some incident which is would seem to be a clear declaration of British policy," be de clares. "Even Fascist Italy would hesitate to risk a war if it were clear that Great Jii'ituiil would act against an aggressor." TPITIS British labor, government, he points out, is committed not to risk another position such as that, it took fit Locarno when it; declared itself ready to act against any aggressor in the Rhinelaiid,' But he predicts an early return of British Tories to power, in which event "some clear and definite British policy is not unlikely, for in the main British and French intercMs co incide. France, like Britain, has no other desire than to main things as they are; and' Britain, equally with France, desires peace and cannot look -with equanimity upon a possible Italian victory which Would insure Italian possession of Tunis and mas tery of the passage between Sicily and Tunis which would per mit Italy tirdoininate the main line of British imperial comnuiiii cations. There is little likelihood ot action by the League of Nations to forestall Franco-Kalian eonl'lict, Mr. Siinonds believes, issues are too vague to permit of judicial adjustment. "The most disheartening aspect of the trouble is flic fact that no important definite question divides Kome aml l'aris," says Ins Review ol Reviews article. If certain nerft'rvitl Ital ians talk of recovering the lost provinces of SaVoV, Corsica anil Nice, all Objective thinkers know that in none of these French territories is there the slightest desire for li change. Even the forcible naturalization of the children of Italian parents in Tunis precisely the same thing that happens in the United States is trivial. What is at otitis is something too vagiU- and too indel'inih to admit of simple adjustment. Italy rising to equality with Franco in population, and now under impulse of a super-nationalist ie system anil a Napoleon-minded dictator, st-s Franco tho barrier to n realization of her dreams, which the Fascist i easily translate into rights. What (ieriuany thought of Britain in 11)14, Italy now thinks of France." Correct this sentence; "I just picked up iiiy"liat and Walked out," saitl he, "and my wife didn't ask where I was going."

All .this immediately nftri injury. And Where may t find deTintlc data or good authority for your statement that diathermy removes lameness? S. R t Answer If you will keep a straight face, I' 119 say; I am a good authority about the questions involo?d. Or, better, ask alrpoet any patient who has been pain fully limping around with a sprain how come ho is so much relieved all of a sudden. He'U "probably Bay diathermy. I advise. GENTL.E massage of ankle and leg with upward strokes with camphor liniment (camphorated oil), or other mild application such as witch hazel or plairi soapy -water or soapy water with a droti of turpentine added, for 15 minutes following- the hour of soaking in water kept as hot as endurable. Following that, dry heat in one form or another. This is for moderately severe sprains. In milder sprain it is often better to bandage, strap or lace fi shoe .tightly on the injured ankle and walk about An it at once. In any case where much lameness persists, diathermy Is a remark ably helpful remedy, and often does remove the lameness for many hours or permanently.
