The Acid Test Is Near 7E CAN'T have our cake and sell more goods abroad. We can't improve domes tio business and also improve foreign business. Small wonder, therefore, that the New York exporters, and Big Business barons are squawking. The former must have foreign business to live; the latter must have export trade to maintain their present plants But with every increase of wages and therefore increase of commodity prices the foreign market for American goods declines. The acid test or one of tbem for President Roosevelt, predicted in this column six or eight weeks ago, is near at hand, if it has not already arrived. He will have to choose between domestie trade and foreign trade; between the interests of Big Business and what he re gards as the welfare of this country. a a TPHERE is no doubt of the President's choice. He will take his stand for .domestic trade and the welfare of his country. But this will mean a fight. No sham battle. A real fight to a finish. In the opinion of this newspaper, foreign trade, at least as it developed following the war, will have to go. After all, it was not as important as many people suppose. Our per capita exports in 1931 for example, were only four per cent of our per capita income and only six per cent of our per capita production. As Dean Donham of the Harvard School of Business, has inquired, "Shall we allow such small percentages to control our future!" We quote: "We have lost less than four per cent ot our volume of pro duction through collapse of foreign trade, but we have lost 4S per cent to 56 per cent of production In the home market. Shall we seek to restore the four per cent In tbe International field and to Increase the volume of manufactured goods several fold, or ehall we try to regain a far larger volume at home. We cannot do both." In his Now Plan, President Roosevelt has decided to con centrate upon larger volume at home. He has adopted the policy that "by American trade is America made." It may sound simple but it cated as any economic problem a complete revolution in the Big Business structure for Big Business alone has depended materially upon export trade. Nevertheless, we believe President Roosevelt will win, for if he sticks to his guns, he will and file of the American people. But before it is over he will be about as popular with captains of big industry, as was his famous predecessor in the White House, of the Bame name. He can't have his cake and eat it. He can't enjoy the campaign contributions he enjoyed in 1932 for example, and continue his present policies. Unless we are entirely mistaken in the man, he will sacri fice his large campaign contributions. It's Up to the Police THERE is a very interesting article in the last Colliers on the making of gangsters, by William Shepherd. Mr. Shepherd shows that in the last analysis, gangsters are made by corrupt police and crooked politicians. Gangs are made up of city boys, who choose crime for two main reasons, for the money, and for the adventure. Practi cally all of them are known to the police. But instead of arresting them the police take tribute from them. One gang sters a mere child admitted he paid the police over $7000 in a few years. The gangsters make easy money from the outset, largely because they have "fences" where stolen goods can quickly and snfely be turned into cash. These "fences" are also known to the police. But instead of closing them the police protect them and get their cut from that source, also. Back of the fences and back of the police of course, arc the shyster lawyers and the crooked politicians. AN honest and efficient police force, however, in any large city could clean out tho gangsters in a month, if they were so disposed. If a go-getter like General (NRA) Johnson, were placed in charge of a selected body of police in Chicago for example, he could undoubtedly rid that sink of vice and iniquity of the professional gunmen, before snow flies. Such a police force would first close the "fences," then round up the gang' leaders, and in all liklihood, little more would need to bo done. With the source of revenue gone, and leadership gone, Natiue could be left to take ita oourse. But until we get an efficient and incorruptible police force, thero is little chance of riding our larger cities, of organized crime. E AS BATTLE (Continued rrom Page One.) fire which late today wae within two miles of the C. O. C. camp near that place. People Flee Hundreds of residents of farms and valley homes fled tor safety today as the great smoke clouds burst Into the sky and the roaring thunder ot the furious flames drew nearer.

THE PHYSICIAN AS STOOL PIGEOX Headline: Dr. Somebody Indicted In Holdup Cases. Tbe story ssys tbst Dr. John J. Somebody felled to notify the police that be had treated f patient for gun' shot wounds and the grand Jury Indicted him. It seems there's a law, a speclsl ststute specifying that a physician attending a per son suffering from gunshot wounds must notify either the local police or the state commissioner ot public safety. How did the grand Jury lesrn about the doctor's dastardly conduct? Oh, another doctor, with whom he con sulted about the case, ran right around and Informed the police. A nasty type, this stool pigeon who would betray the faith patient puts In hla doctor rather than commit a misdemeanor. That's one of tbe rotten things about Medicine today too many of that type In practice. "Dr. stoolplgeon, police aald, gave them Information which was extremely valuable In mak ing the capture (of the alleged bandit). He explained how the alleged bandit had been brought to his office by Dr. Some body. . Too bad we can't indict Dr. Stool- pigeon, for he betrayed the honor of his profession, the confidence of his colleague and the faith or trust of the patient. Another "special" statute or regula tion has been enacted In some states, requiring physicians to report all cases of gonorrhea or syphilis. 'From tne first this bss been a dead let ter, because these diseases occur In all classes and the physicians cant afford to betray the confidence of better class patients, you know. The law requiring physicians to report such cases of disease Is more honored In the breach than the ob servance. It tloesn't require much moral courage to break this law. Such "special" statutes or regula tions, violate the fundamental princi ples ot Justice and common welfare. The common law has alwaya recog nized the Inviolable secrecy of what ever a physician learns In his profes sional capacity, especially knowledge !N YAKIMA AREA YAKIMA, Wash., Aug. 20. 1P) National guardsmen and state, high way patrolmen Joined forces today In a determined effort to wipe out all "jungle camps" in the valley, in the belief they are the gathering places for agitators and I.

ZllL&h, Wapato and other valley cities were visited by a contingent of 30 men under direction of William Ole, head of the state patrol, MaJ. S. W. Hand and Deputy Sheriff H. T. Armstrong. The camps were destroyed and transients who could not explain their presence In the valley satisfac torily was ordered to take the first train out, and further assembling at the spots were forbidden. On their return to Yakima, they reported that 7A transients were seen on the freight train, leaving tha val ley. Meanwhile, a definite system of cov eting the county by patrols of state police and national guardsmen was being worked out. In the main rioting two days ago, 7A men were arrested, and IS men were Injured, one receiving a frac tured skull. Communications Commends County Audit. To the Editor: I have read with very much Inter est your articles regarding the county audit recently completed. I had possibly as much Interest In this during the past year, and In as close touch with It as the average taxpayer, and worked laat fall on the Chamber of Commerce tax com mittee and have talked to seemingly hundreds of taxpayers. It has been the concensus of opin ion by everyone that there would be but little discrepancy found In any records and possibly was a waste ot money as far as actual need was con cerned, but still It would be an In teresting record to have and, above all other arguments for or against the incoming new officials were entitled to an audit. There is one thing that a study of the audit should be able to show and that Is a verification or refuta tion of stories that we hear In re gard to the mishandling of money in the sense that business methods were quite often not used In Individual business deals that should have saved the taxpayers sometimes thousands of dollars If they had been properly handled. (This does not appty to county matters alone, but can be found wherever publle money Is handled.) I do not believe in or would coun tenance the hurling of baseless ac cusations (as has been done) but we aU hear these stories wX possibly I letters received only a lew can be ans queries pot conforming to Instruction. which, If divulged, might Jeopardise the patlent'a .reputation or safety. Why not a special statute to pun ish lawyers who fall to Inform tbe police when they are consulted by a client who Is evidently mixed up In some criminal sftalr? And another to compel the clergyman to Inform the police whenever anyone confesses any crime? And a very special one to make useful stool pigeons of wives, mothers or other relatives who may learn of Implication In crime? QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS I'd Be Pretty Mad Myself I would like your best opinion of sodium sulpbocyanate aa used for treatment of by the medical fraternity. I have refused to fill prescriptions where the patient Is miles from the doctor . . . (P. B. m.) Answer I know nothing about the use of the medicine In the condition you mention. But If I prescribed It and a druggist refused to fill the prescription on such ground I'd be furious, too. It Is scarcely the duty of the pharmacist to question the physlclsn's Judgment. Doctors Disagree Why should one doctor Insist my daughter's tonsils should be removed Immediately, while another assures me her tonsils do not require re moval. She haa chronic running ear. (Mrs. E. 8.) Answer Perhapa one doctor Is an old-timer and the other has more conservative views. The old timers still regard every tonsil that Is vis ible as rather a menace. There la a lot of Bheer hokum practiced by lat ter day throat specialists and by plod ding practitioners who take the brass specialists too seriously. If there la a septic focus In either tonsil It Is a question of fsct, not of opinion. If the doctor .determines that the tonsil Ls the sest of Infection, be should eradicate the Infection aa a first step In the treatment of run ning ear. But this does not necessar ily require removal of the tonsils. I believe It ls preferable In most casea to eradicate auch a focus of Infec tion In the tonsil by means ot dia thermy (electro-coagulation), which la at least aa efficient as radical surgery, and both safer and less pain ful for the pstlent. Ed Note: Readers wishing to communicate with Dr. Brady should send letters direct to Dr. William Brady, M. D., 265 El Ca mlno, Beverly Hills, Calif. hear more of them than 'most folks, and there must be some basis ol truth to them, In fact we all know positively of foolish deals. The fact that an occasional audit will be taken and made public may cause future officials to be more care ful In their business deals. OEO. IVERSON, Secy. Taxpayers' League.

The only other patron was a red faced flftytsh man, who kept Jerking out a biscuit sized watch, and said many silly things to the serving maid, etc., etc. Wed nesday, Thursday and Friday I wrote 7,000 words which I cut to 5,000. Afterward the car still being un fixed we sat on a veranda and lis tened to some amazingly dull talk by four old Jossers. One said his son was afflicted with a cussedness.

We drove to East 63d street for the Lisle Bells and motored toward Larchmont. I fell to talking about a house I would like to build some day, probably in Galllpolls. On a turn of the road I saw a replica of the Identical house. It was like a mirage. But It had been deserted, weeds grown high and windows knocked in by boys.

He made it quite clear that his "neighbor" policy forbids monopolies, particularly In public utilities; -child labor; starvation wages and long hours of work and an unfair distri bution of wealth. But he insisted all of this does not Infringe upon per sonal liberty. "It became unfair," he said, "to our neighbors If we sought to make unreasonable profit from a monopoly In a service such as electricity or gas or railroad tickets which they all had to use. - "Many years ago we went further In saying that the government would place Increasing taxes on Increasing profits because very large profits, ol course, made at the expense of the neighbors and should, to some extent at least, be used for the benefit of the neighbors."

SELECT CITIZENS BY SOVJET UKASE GORKY, TJ. S. 8. R (AP) A se lect portion of the proletariat of the Soviet Union now ls to be permitted to own automobiles. Most of them are expected to buy the machines on the Installment plan for the price of 496S roubles. At gold par this would equal about 92480. Marking the first time that auto mobiles have been sold to private owners In soviet Russia, the govern ment has authorized the local plant, which ls licensed to manufacture small American cars, to sell COO ma chines within the next three years to Its best workers and engineers. To qualify, as a purchaser, a work er must have the title of "shock briga dier," which ls given to only the most energetic. Also he must have been employed continuously at the plant here for not less than a year. Hitherto the on.y privately owned cars In Russia belonged to foreigners. The government found It difficult to acquire enough for official needs without trying to market the output to Its citizens. But now, the authorities say, the country ls well launched on mass production. They predict :hat the sales to Individuals graduaUy will be extended. for Motorists!
