Editorial Correspondence
ROCKFORD, 111, July 31.
Plenty of green fields outside
of Rockford, but few green
lawns within. Reason : plenty
of water but not plenty of
money. Everyone, generally
speaking, is broke. And water
is on a meter basis. Good busi
ness is good times. Not so good
in bnd. With green grass
around everything would look
better, and everyone feel that
way.
"I shouldn't have shot poor
Joe. It was a dirty trick and
I am sorry."
Thus spake Mrs. Dorothy
Pollak, pretty brunette, 26
years old, in Chicago yesterday
morning according to the
"greatest newspaper in the
world."
This must be consoling to
Joe. How much better he
must feel than if she had said,
"I am glad I killed him, the
dirty rat." '
"When I get out of this
mess" adds pretty Mrs. Pollak,
"I will probably go into the
beauty, culture business."
That will Je nice. Joe who
loft her $100,000 as a result of
his profitable alcohol racket,
will be pleased to learn his wife
intends to be self supporting.
Chicago appears to be run
ning true to form.
Coming back to the old home
town is something like visiting
a museum, where you select
and classify your own exhibits.

Lancaster Planned Suicide

Trial of Flying Partner,
Accused of Writer's Death
MIAMI, Fla., Aug. S. (T Mrs. J.
M. Kelth-Ml'iler, Australian filer and
former aviation partner of Captain
W. N. Lancaster, testified at the for
mer British army viator'-, murder
trial today that Lancaster had con
templated suicide in order that she
and Haden Clarke, her fiance, might
receive 91.000 from his Insurance pol

writer. In a love triangle, the avla

affections at dinner tn night before
Clarke was shot at her home. They
settled their differences, however, she
said, after Olarke admitted Lancas

faithful to the former army filer In
making love to her.

Her voice broke aa ahe spoke of
locking the door ot her room upon
returning that night. -
"Why did you lock the door!" Stat
Attorney H. Vernon Hawthorne asked.
" Muse Haden told me he did not
want that (Lancaster) to come
to my room and talk me out of our
marriage plans," ah responded.
Mrs. Kelth-MUler said Lancaster
hurried home from a business trip to

Clarke had become betrothed, as the
youth wrote her memoir which she

proved over the gay ninety
period is the Rock river, that
still flows gently to the Missis
sippi, still looks beautiful with

distance, but not so beautiful
close to, In the old days it had
something more than an an
cient and a fishy smell the
odor during the summer dog
days, was enough to drive a
dog mad. But today there is
a large and expensive sewage
disposal plant in Rockford, put
in by the way by Samuel Gree
ly, the Chicago engineer who
surveyed the Medford situation
and Bear Creek. As a result
the flower gardens along the
river have a chance, so have
the kids who want to swim, so
have the noses of the inhabi
tants. The city fathers never
made a better investment, in
health, civio self respect and
beauty.
The sporting editor of a
Rockford newspaper boosts the
Western golf amateur tourna
ment to be held in Rockford
during August as follows:
"Word comes from the Pa
cific coast that two of the put
standing golfers in the Far
West, Don Moe and H. Chand
ler Egan of Oregon will com
pete for the title. Chandler
Egan who lives in Medford,
recently won the northwest
title at the age of 50 (sic I) he
is an ex western and national,
title holder and is headed for
high honors this year. He will
play with bis brother, Brad
shaw and his nephew Bill of
Chicago. It also has been
learned Charles Sever, Stan
ford university football player
will be on hand, with his father
Charles, Sr., a sterling perfor
mer, and director of the West
ern golf association."
Chan has apparently been
keeping something from his
Medford admirers. It was
known he had a golfing cousin,
Walter Egan of Chicago and
Carmel, but Brother Bradshaw
and nephew Bill, as stars of the
golf world are something new.
Walter should come to Rock
ford also and put on an Egan
family foursome.

We read each others' letters before
they were mailed."
She said Lancaster was sad upon
his return from St. Louis because of
her engagement to Clark and told
her he planned to kill himself in an
airplane so she would benefit from
his Insurance.
Later, he learned the insurance
company had failed and he aban
doned she plan, ahe added.

There is a Borah mystery and
it is about politics. The able
senator from Idaho has made
his choice for president and will
not tell the name of his choice.
It is not Hoover, hot Roosevelt
and not Upshaw, the prohibi
tion candidate. Of course it is
not Thomas, socialist candi

be a clergyman, is extremely

Senator Borah is hard on

its prohibition plank."

Mr. Knudsen, of Detroit, head of
the Chevrolet company, and -Aylea-worth,
boas of National Broadcasting,
eating TET7 LE VEAU A LA VINAI
GRETTE at New York's Rita Carlton
Hotel yesterday, decided that better
times are coming back. NOT around
the corner, but marching up the
street.
W. R. Hearst, who publishes news
papers, agrees with them. He says
1933 will be a good year.
Tht writer aharea the reticence of
Brer Tarbaby, but hopes for the best.
It la a fact the news la more hopeful
than It has been In two yeara past. ,
One thing la sure and there la
comfort In It. The depression hss
not depressed American athletes, for
they are smashing records and allow
ing competing visiting foreigner to
see what they have not seen in war,
the back of many Americans.
If you can arrange It, attend those
Olymplo gamea at Los Angelea. This
I written on the way there, via Chi
cago, Oakland and San Francisco.
All in one trip, this aununer, you may
see six thousand miles of your coun
try, going and coming, site the games,
the Paclfio ocean, and, as Mr. West-
brook Pegler Justly observes, Investi
gate many marvellous opportunities
for real estate Investment.
On such a trip you may learn much
about politics and form opinions as
to what will happen in November.
This column deals with facts, not
opinions, so you will be spared any
reading of the future.
John H. Ferry, who la on this
Twentieth Century train, says "It
all dependa a good deal on foolish
things that the candidates do NOT
say. In three months, a candidate
can talk himself out of a 100-to-t
shot." So says Mr. Perry, Vho owns
newspapera In many place, Includ
ing Jacksonville, Florida, and other
cities.
Ha adds, by the way, that Jackson
ville hopes to make enough out ot Its
publicly owned light and power plant
and other natural monopolies, to free
Jacksonville of taxation, as has been
don In various cities ot Kansas and
some other states.
President Hoover Is preparing plans
for promotion of the five-day work
ing week, the "flexible week," It la
called. It la believed that the five
day plan would provide Jobs for three
million men now Idle.
At the beginning, of course, the
five-day man would get a five-day
salary. But one the five-day week
la established. It will b a week a
well paid as the six-day weak used to
be, Just a the eight-hour day Is aa
well and better paid In good times
now than the old ten-hour day.
If you are ahort of money, occa
sionally, your Unci Sam can sympa
thize with you. In July he took In
383.390,830 leas than the amount he
needed and his deficit for the month
was 183,000,000 greater than In July
last year.
We are running an expensive coun
try, expensive state, city and village
governments. Eventually, Americana
will be compelled to take a real In
terest In their government. Germany,

THIRD AND .LAST LESSON IS COLON'S PHYSIOLOGY.
In actual practice the so-called
nutrient enema la a gesture of the
past. We regular doctors are be
ginning to learn
physiology. Now
adays we enter
tain and foster
no delusions that
It Is possible to
fed a patient In
this way when
the natural In
gestion of food
la Interrupted.
To be eure. It
la still ft com
" mon practice to
administer saline solution (salt dis
solved in water) by this method.
We know that water la freely ab
sorbed from the colon or large In
testine. Possibly some salt dissolved
In water la absorbed. Among eur
geoiu wbo, aa a class, are generally
pretty dumb and unskilled In the
science and art of therapeutics or
treatment other than operative, It Is
customary to add some dextrose or
glucose to the water administered by
enema. This la done on the theory
that some glucose or dextrose Is ab
sorbed from the large bowel Into the
blood. Recent Investigation of the
question has failed to furnish satis
factory proof that glucose or dex
trose so administered Is absorbed.
Accurate scientific tests show no ap
preciable Increase In the amount
of dextrose in the blood after the
careful administration of enemas
containing various amounts of dex
trose In solution. Most of the sugar
so administered was recovered from
the dejecta after the lapse of 3'
hours. But not all of It. The In
vestigators concluded that a small
quantity of the dextrose in the
enema may be carried to the upper
part of the large bowel by reverse
peristalsis, and remain there to
undergo slow fermentation or later
return to the lower part of the
colon. The practical conclusion we
must draw from these precise studies
Is that the practice of administering
glucose or dextrose In enemas Is of
questionable value so far as the
nourishment of the patient Is con
cerned, though It may be as useful
as are enemas of salt solution tor
providing needed water to the body.
. For our particular purpose the
lesson to be drawn from these physi
ological facts la a simple one and
a sound one: We need never worry
about the absorption of any harm
ful waste products, alleged poisons or
real poisons of any kind from the
large Intestine. Such a thing can
happen In the presence of grave
pathological lesions or Injuries, of
course, but not In the circumstances
of every-day life.
Don't lt the charlatans, the hum
bug diet experts and the fancy nos
trum exploiters get your goat. When
they get onto the line about the
"toxins' or "products of putrefaca-
tlon" which they would have you
think responsible for Imaginary "au.
The time is not far away when
surface passenger travel will be
moved In cars of duralumlnum,
weighing less than their load of pas
sengers, utilizing the railroads' price

hour and faster, AND THE RAIL
ROADS WILL PAT.
-
Calvin Cooltdp.e say he favors a
general sales tax, also that relying n
heavy taxation on large incomes will
either make depression chronic, or
put the government Into the hands
of the "wealthy." ,
It was In their hands pretty thor
oughly while our boom and our
"wealthy" were still with us. At
present they remind you of the "De
struction of Sennaoherlb."
"The might ot the gentile, unsmote
by the sword,
"Hath melted, tike snow In the
glance of the lord."
Our "wealthy" ' have melted like
snow in the glance of the depression.
Labor may as well know that until
we raise a new crop of rich men to
start labor - employing enterprises,
times will be bad under our system,
and we are not prepared for th Rus
slsn system yet.
Also, the "wealthy," If we ever get
them back, will not put their money
Into enterprise that employ labor as

Confronted with one ot the most
puzzling cases of persistent Intrusion

lice today set about In earnest to

a month has molested the family of
Veryl Humphreys In an East Side ree

Several nights a week for "the past i
month the Intruder haa stalked !
about the grounds av night, peered
through windows, knocked on the ;
side of the house, pried screens or :
windows loose, and otherwise alarmed '
the occupants,
A climax was reached Monday right
when he tossed a burning paper torch .

tific authority for their vicious
teaching. They'll be stumped there.
tho of course they can rattle off
all kinds of names If you let 'em
give you mere opinions of arbitrary
assertions In lieu of scientific facta.
This is my last word on the sub
ject for the present. I hope these
little lessons in physiology will help
some of you glum birds who have
taken the old quack line too seri
ously.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
The Dentist Who Couldn't Eat Eggs.
I failed to see the logic In your
article about the Dentist Who
Couldn't Eat Eggs. If there Is albu
men In the urine doesn't that ahow
the patient can't metabolize such
food, Just as sugar in the urine
shows the diabetic can't metabolize
carbohydrates? Who has proved it
absurd to cut down the Intake of
albuminous food In such a case?
M. h.
Answer The point is that no one
has shown that there is any such
relation as you surmise between the
Intake of albuminous or nitrogenous
food and the presence of albumen
In the urine. On the contrary we
know that patients whose urine con
tains albumen can and do metabolize
or utilize eggs, meats and milk and
cheese without particular difficulty
and as a rule should not try to
avoid such food. The absurdity In
the case of the dentist lies In his
ready assumption that his little
knowledge is sufficient. I printed
the article because I fancied many
laymen have similar misconceptions.
There Is a csrtaln class of laymen,
wiseacres, a I call them, who will
not and can not learn that the old
theory thrt meat eating or the
use of nitrogenous food in the diet
Is hard on the kidneys , has been
discarded because It haa proved
false.
Students Need Physical Training.
One' fellow In our class says that
every morning on rising he notices
a sudden wave of dizziness. On his
mentioning this It developed that
most of the members of the class
have a similar experience. Has it
any significance? M. W.
Answer The pulse rate of a nor
mal person Is 20 beats lnxthe min
ute greater In the erect posture than
when he lies down. The blood pres.
sure, too. Is Increased. If the heart
and circulation Is .Inefficient, the
sudden standing from the horizontal
posture is more likely to distress
one. Perhaps the young persons
who notice the slight dizziness should
devote more attention to getting
physical training. However, normal
adults may feel momentarily dizzy
on such sudden rising. Sit on edge
of bed and lean down as to lace
your shoe a moment first.
