The esteemed Eugene Reltr Ouard, editorially observes u follow on th superfluity of authora, good, bad, and Indifferent: Probably there never we a time when bo many people were trying to turn themselve Into i writer aa the prevent. Thl Is no news, as everybody knows there la a poet behind every phone pole, and a novelist up every tree. The surplus Is' not surprising. "The Writers Digest" published the follow ing sd recently: Writers wanted, to train for humorous column work, which pays aa high as 160,000 a yesr. Who wouldn't "train for humorous' column work, which paya as high aa " H60.000 per year"? People get so careleaa with sseroe, when they have something to sell. If the student, after "training," wrltea anything fun aler than the ad, he will be a dandy. The . quaint Impression prevail among budding, authora, that writing la a gold mine, and entails no labor other than aquattlng In front of a typewriter and starting the hands flitting over the key. Nothing Is farther from the truth not even a Jackson county political campaign liar. The false notion that a writer doea no work, la one cause for the surplua of writer. Moat writing Is as tough on the head, a changing a tire Is on the hands. It Is an old axiom, that "he who ha failed at everything turn to writing." The Idea I to make a fizzle of writing also. The average writer. If he I very lucky, 1 Just two Jump ahead of the sheriff, and one ahead of Satan. Borne times the sheriff Is kind-hearted and alowa up. The current ef xualon la a time when he should speed up. There Is also the embry onic writer, whloh ' comprise the major portion of the surplus of auth ora and writer. Spring 1 the worst time of the year for poets. They subside tbe re maining season. The fancy writers, and the heavy thinking authors never cease. Most of their brain, children come under the head of low humor, but It Is not sate to mention It. They muse up more white paper than the poet. Posaeaaed of nothing to write about, they keep doggedly at It. The heavy thinking write ra are funnier than the alleged humorlata. It frequently happena that those who live by the pen, go to the pen. This type make the pencil a danger oils weapon, and should be prohibit ed from carrying one, by legislative enactment. The type produce "con structive criticism" that raise Cain. Ned, and Hell, with Tom, Dick, and Harry. Martin Luther said It all once In an may. He waa afterward burned at the stoke, or met some similar fate. Luther aald: The multitude of books Is a great evil. There la no measure or limit to this fever for writing; every one must be an author; some out of vanity to acquire celebrtty and raise up a name. othera for the aake of lucre and gain. Mr. Luther forgot to mention, that those who do not write "for the aake of lucre or gain," already have It, Adrienne's Style Revue Wednesday Craterian Stage Adrlenne will preoen ta short nut effective atayle revue at the Craterian theater tomorrow night between the first and eecond showings of Kathar Ine Hepburn In "Morning Olory."

Men Change, Not the World I INCOLN STEFFENS in his intensely interesting "sutobiog raphy" closes the hook with the statement that he started in to change the world, and ended by the world changing him. He started by muck-raking, unearthing corruption in public life, and sending the offenders to prison. But when 25 years later he was asked to muck rake the scandals of the Harding ad ministration he refused. He was no longer interested in per sonal wrong doing, hunting down the criminals; he was only interested in changing the system that produced them. So he concludes "the world changed him." We doubt that. We think it was NOT the world that changed him, but the YEARS. WE all start out as radicals, we all end as conservatives. There are exceptions, of course, but they only prove the rule. Youth is essentially a period of action; old age is essen tially a period of reflection, of thought. It's purely a physical process, and goes directly back to Shakespeare's "All tbe world's a stage, and all the men and women simply players." As a young man Steffcns had to have action, so he went after the grafters and he got them at least many of them. As an older man action was not so urgently demanded. One set of grafters had been succeeded by another, Steffens was more in terested in thinking the thing out, and as he thought it out he concluded, that no permanent betterment could be attained, until the fundamental system had been changed. TPHE world and its problems remained the same. But Steffens had changed as through the years, all individuals change. He had ceased to be a doer and become a thinker, he had ceased to be a man of action and become a man ofwisdom, he was no longer a "muckraker," he was an "elder statesman." He decided the world had worked this change, but really life had a different point of view was as inevitable, as' a different focus in his eye, and a different tempo in his step. Lincoln Steffens had become an old man. Essentially the world hadn't changed. But he bad. Just Growing Up QO with the American Legion. At its recent national conven tion, sound money was endorsed, the demand for a cash bonus defeated, the importance of stressing care for the ill and disabled, and giving more consideration to the welfare of the American taxpayer, were favored. It was a complete reversal from the organization's previous platforms, and was hailed in many quarters as evidence of a startling change in legion prin ciples and policies. - . Not so startling. The members of the legion are older, that is all. Most 'of them are in their late thirties instead of their early twenties. Radical policies are the product of youth, all revolutionary movements are youth movements. The legion isn't there yet by a long shot, but it is slowly but surely advanc ing to the place occupied by the G. A. R., 25 or 30 years ago, the greatest force for conservatism and stability in the country. oldest civilizations long ago recognized this truth. China overdid it until it degenerated into ancestor worship. But Japan, a comparatively young country, followed China's exam ple, and established the Elder statesman system. I It's a good system good that is, for a country that wishes to secure stability, and wishes to avoid internal dissension and strife. ' For old ago is the period of wisdom, based upon experi ence and knowledge; youth is the period of action, often hasty and ill advised because it is based upon inexperience and impulse. Youth is whp.t we need in the gas tank, old age is what we need at the wheel. The perfect combination is when the motor ear of state is thus equipped and manned. The Problem of 3.2 Beer '" DPEAKING of wisdom and knowledge this country needs the best it can provide, in this regard, for the proper solution of the pending liquor problem. The Rockefeller Foundation has been studying the question, and the first reports have been research was conducted by two task, Raymond B. Fosdick and Albert L. Scott rthe former a successful practicing attorney and the latter a well k,nown civil engineer. It is interesting to note what they report regarding 3.2 been "Since March 93, joss the nation has been a laboratory In which a remarkable experiment haa been tried. During thla time such beer waa sold, even In populous centers like New York , City, with little restraint. For some weeks It waa obtainable like Ice cream at any aoda fountain. It haa been drunk In enormous quantities. Yet the testimony Is almost unanimous that there has been no Increase In drunkenness, no disorder, no Increased resort to Illicit hard liquor. The evidence, as we have found It, la all the other way. Bootlegger have lost part of their patron age; In aome place arrests for drunkenness have positive de clined. "The continued, unrestricted sale of beer having an alcoholle content of not more than S.a per cent Is clearly the part of wisdom. Sucb beer should be obtainable by the bottle, for oft premlsee consumption, practically without limitation. Its sale should be allowed by grocery stores, drug stores, delicatessens and general atores, and Indeed by any merchant who so desires. "To many people this liberal policy In relation to the control of been and wines may seem a betrayal of the cause of tem perance. With them no compromise with liquor In any form Is possible, and the world they desire Is a world In which alcoholic beverages are not consumed at all. "Today we are confronted with practical realities. It Is not a question of the kind of world we might prefer; It I a question of what we can achieve In the kind of world we have. It Is a question of human taatea and appetltea which, a w have dis covered, csnnot be eliminated by statute. "In our opinion, there Is but one major proposition to be . fsced In relation to alcohol: Orantlng that millions of our people don't drink at all. how can the cause of temperance bast be served among those who choose to drlnkf" TROJANS 'GATE' E LOS ANOEl.ES.

William Brady, tss Kl Carol do. auverley Hills, Cai, YOU SHOULD KNOW YOUB DIAPHRAGM. Singers and readers or elocutionist say that belly breathing improves their style. Persons who stutter or stammer r e p o rt that belly breath ing brings better control of speech. Persons past mid dle age find that It tends to lower high blood pres sure. "Nervous" persons use belly breathing to get to sleep at ntght. Those subject to hiccoughs or much belching get relief by means qt nelly breath ing. Asthmatic sufferers declare that belly breathing keeps them more comfortable, Young women who have menstrual difficulties obtain perma nent relief by the regular practice of this natural breathing. Victims of chronic "catarrhal" trouble In nose or throat note a definite Im provement after a few weeks of the simple exercise In relaxation. Suf ferers from chronic digestive disturb ances due to liver and gall-bladder troubles, commonly associated with hemorrhoids, In many Instances ob tain considerable relief by practicing belly breathing. In order to comprehend how such a simple exercise can be beneficial in so many diverse conditions It Is necessary to have an elementary knowledge of the physiology of the diaphragm. Briefly the diaphragm Is a muscle which works automatically yet Is to a certain degree under control of the will. It Is stretched across the runic or body cavity In the position of an Inverted soup plate. It divides the upper part of the cav ity, the thorax or chest, from the lower part, or abdomen. The great membranous muscle Is stretched over the liver, stomach and other organs like a tarpaulin over a wheats tack. When the diaphragm con tracts It squeeze,, down on the abdominal or gans. The first effect of this Is to permit air to enter the lungs; inspira tion, or Inhalation of air. Remember, when air Is Inspired, breathed in, In haled, the diaphragm Is contracting and pressing down upon the liver, stomach and all the other structure within the abdomen. Under this com pression these organs press against the abdominal walls, and the front wall, the belly, bulges or expands. At the same time the Increased pressure In the abdomen tends to squeeze the blood out of the veins, say In the liver or In the great network of veins car rying blood from the alimentary tract to the liver and aa these veins are equipped with valves that prevent Inflation to Make Jobs, Stabilize Dollar Value HI. Two Sides of the Fence. On the one side, the rlghthand aide, are those working In fields and fac tories and atorea. owned and control led by private enterprise, producing and distributing commodities. The retail value of these commodities, sold from rtall store In 1029, was fifty billion dollars. In 1933, retail salea amounted to less than forty billion dollars. On the other side, to the left, are those engaged by the government In non-oommodlty producing enter prlses, those drawing pensions from the government and those retired because of old age. It la estimated at the present time there are over nine million men out of work. Enough of these men must be put to work by the government In non-commodity producing enterprlces, building hlghwsys, harbors and parks, and paid In non-Interest bearing treasury notes, commodity dollars, to bring prices of commodities up to tho desired level. Thla Increased purchasing power and Increased volume of currency in circulation must In time bring up the price level of commodities.

McKee. former acting mayor, In the race as an Independent candidate and Tammany Hall working for the reele tlon of Majror John P. Q'Brlsn. (Associated Press Photo) bacJcflow, the blood Is forced along toward the heart in the direction It should go. Besides, the downward pull of the diaphragm upon the chest cavity tends to lower pressure with in the chest, and this still further favors the flow of blood back through the great veins toward the right side of the heart. Thus besides, being the main breathing muscle, the dia phragm, when It functions naturally or normally, serves as a booster pump for the circulation. When the Inspiration, Inhalation, taking in of breath, or, aa I prefer to think of It, the Inflation of the bellows (belly Is derived from the word bellows) Is effected or com pleted, then expiration, exhalation, letting out the breath or deflation of the belly Is purely a passive occur rence or consequence, an elastic re bound, without any conscious or ac tive muscular effort whatever. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS. Lotion for Acne. A short while ago I wrote for your advice about acne. I used the lotion you suggested, an ounce each of sub limed sulphur, compound tincture of lavender, extract of witch hazel, cam phor water and glycerin. Instantly noticed Improvement and now my skin has cleared perfectly. I am grateful. You can't Imagine how much it means to a girl of 18. M. A. 8. Answer Sure I can. I am glad It helped you. Always glad to send ad vice to any reader who tells me he or she has acne (blackheads and pimples) and Incloses stamped enve lope bearing the correct address. Cream In Your Coffee. Whether condensed, milk used In coffee Is ss fattening as cream. I am trying, to limit my diet to prevent gaining weight. V. S. Answer Owing to the sugar added, condensed milk yields almost twice as many calories to the ounce. But evaporated milk' Is rather less nutri tious than cream. inspiration. I fear I do not quite understand the reason for your claim that the method of resuscitation taught by Red Cross first aid Instructors is wrong ... J. L. A. Answer Send a dime and a stamp ed envelope bearing your address, for the booklet on "Resuscitation," which describes and pictures the correct method and clearly shows the error In the method taught by the Red Cross Instructors.

Beverly Hills, Ca.lf lars would be retired from circula tion until tbe desired price level of commodities waa reached. Out of the nine million men un employed at the present time. If six million were put to work by the gov ernment on the left side, then the remaining three million could fln.l employment on the right aide, pro ducing and distributing additional commodities. Instead of retail sales amounting to forty billion dollars they would be Increased to sixty bil lion dollars. There are thirty million families tn the United States. The heada of twenty million families are working. They now spend and pay out in taxes and give to the unemployed forty billion dollara. That Is approximately 12,000 for each family, the head of which Is employed. Now put to work the heads of ten million more fam ilies and the purchasing power would be Inchreased by twenty billion dol lars,' and retail sales would Increase approximately this amount. Now comes the test, commodity dolara have been Isaued at the rate of ten or twelve billion each year to put five or six million heada of fam ine to work. Commodity price are up to the desired level. Stabilization must now be brought about. J. C. BARNES. saltw-i -siDfr: Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS A STRAW In Use wln: The American Federation of Labor, In Its monthly survey, Just Is sued, sys: "While the business mood at present I one of uncertainty, em ployment Is still Increasing and pay rolls expanding." ANOTHER straw: The American Railway associa tion announces that loadings of reve nue freight for the week ending Sep tember aowere 881,827 cars, an IN CREASE of 9158 over tbe preceding week and 40,16a over the correspond ing week of last year. OTILL another straw: kJ Tbe cotton textile Industry Issues a report showing an Increase In em ployment of 148,000 persons from March to September and an Increase In payrolls from 113,800,000 a month In March to 127,000,000 a month In September, JUST straws In the wind, of course, But they show that the wind of business are blowing In the direction of better times. v NOTE, please, thst most of these re ports of better business sre com ing from the East. That Is normal. Hard timea start In the East and travel weatward, and good times start In the East aha travel westward. It has been that way In the past, and Is undoubtedly that way now. MOTE particularly the atatement bv 1 1 the American Federation of Labor that "the business mood of the pres ent Is one of uncertainty." That Is true. People are uncertain about the business future because they don't know what the value of money Is going to be a month hence. Inflation talk has done that. P WE are goingto"have Inflation, I let's HAVE IT. If were not going to have Inflation, let KNOW we're not. Let's clear up the uncertainty and get business going. a. THIS writer, by the way, who has always believed In hard money In the past, is for Inflation within rea son, of course NOW. Why? Because Individuals and com munities, counties, state and nation, school districts and road districts, are so heavily Involved In debt that It Is extremely doubtful If they will ever get out If the dollar remains at any thing like Its present high buying level. If inflation helps debtors to get out of debt, It will help business gen erally. MOW about creditors? 1 1 Well, It's better for them to Rtt their money In cheap dollars than not to get It at all. Thst'a about the long and the short of It. -f QPEAKINO of debts, we read In the news of the day that "Great Brit ain has come to the Irrevocable de ulsloo never to resume full war debt payments to the United, States." What ahe proposes, we are told, la a lump sum payment that will be far under the total owed, or monthly payments whose total will be larger than the lump sum proposed, but far under the amount of her debt. In any crc-nt, she Isn't going to pay us ALL she owes us. WHEN a nation that In the past haa been aa scrupulously careful about paying Its debts as Oreat Brit ain deliberately announces that It will NOT pay all It owes. It shows how far the Idea of compromising debts. In some way or other, haa proceeded.

Wherever she went on her visit here, the crowds congealed, mur muring praise thst rose to regi mented clamor for her auto graph. Miss Keeler re mains herself and her life Is haloed with an appeal ing C 1 n d erella theme that always catches the fervor of a crowd. She was born In a tene ment district as Celtic as the blue of her eyes. And she has not for gotten. She calls on Mrs. Murphy and Mrs. O'CaUahan. Her beauty is even more pronounc ed off screen. Her dark hair falls In natural marcel over a boyish head, features chiseled out of white Ivory sre the background for lips of cMrry red and peach-blown complexion. Her smile has a warming shyness. But permit a local cinema chatterer to continue the rave: "Demure, en trancing, ravishing behold Ruby Keeler 1" The other evening Miss Keel er was leaving a theater on her hus band's arm. A black carriage boy observed: "Mr. Jolson, you sure looks proudrul." Al, with an expansive eye roll, beamed: "Boy, I 1st" The late Eddie Dillon and Robert Z. Leonard shared an office together in Hollywood, to search for plays. One morning after "a tough day at the studio," Eddie with several mas. propped against hla desk inkwell, fell asleep. Leonard tiptoed In, placed an open phone book over the plays and exploded a torpedo. Awakened, and without turning his head. Eddie star ed at the open phone book and mur mured: "Lousy too many charac ters!" Ambitious mamas with marriage able daughters have three new catches for which to angle thla winter. The young men who along with manhood have attained enormous Inheritances are Alfred G. Vanderbtit, Woolworth Donohue and John Jacob Astor. Each Is said to be of serious turn. No play-boylng. The Jaunty mustache Is having an other vogue this fall. The avenue la brisk with Clifton Webb. Paul White- man and even Hitler effects. But when It comes to dashing, slashing, devil- may-care Hp shrubbery, my candidste for the moment Is Major John M. Warner, son-in-law of Al Smith and, I believe, president of the New York Athletic club. Viewing his romantic adornment, I think only of ruffs. doublet and hose, D'Artagnan and Dos Caesar de Bazan. Second place in the Dashing-Mustache syeepstakes, of course, should go to that master chanticleer, Grover Whalen. Aimee Mcpherson's thirst for lem onade kept a fleet of bellboys busy at her hotel as well as call boys back stage at the Capitol. She likes It In especially tall glasses, and a statis tician figures she easily consumes 20 beakers a day. But servitors did no; mind toting her favorite liquid, for the evangelist Is a liberal tipper. Those axe brave young men who, having built huts along Riverside Drive between 72nd and 79th streets, are hopefully awaiting an uptake in events. There la none of the snarl lng defiance of the squatter or the avenging of capitalistic wrongs. Many are last year's college graduates whose ambitious argosies foundered In. as Homer would put It, in a wine dark sea. Those who look down from wlD' dows of majestic apartments call it Heartbreak Row. But that's a mis nomer. There Is no sniveling. Life has cuffed but not beaten them. And they are not Interested In commun ism. Of all single-handed reporting feats. that of Julian Ralph on Dana's Sun excels. After a day of observance he aat down at 7 p. m. and at mldnlgnt had. finished hla story of the dedica tion of Grant's tomb. He took no notes, yet with pencil and paper his stirring account filled the entire first page of the Sun and "Jumped" Inside for three columns. For the long haul Irvln Cobb surpassed that record la reporting the entire Thaw trial by longhand, rushing It page by page to the office by nimble-footed copy boys. Martin Green, returning by train from an out-of-town asslgnmen. learned how a House of David elder washes hla face. He dips the end 6T a towel In the wash basin and wipes hia forehead.

Why Hospitals Use a Liquid Laxative Hosnilals and doctors have alwavs used liquid laxatives. And the public is fast returning to laxatives in liquid form. Do you know the reasons? The dose of a liquid laxative can be measured. The action ran be con trolled. It forms no habit; you need not take a "double dose" a day or two later. A'or will a mild liquid laiative irritate the kidneys. The right liquid laxative brings a perfect movement, and there is no discomfort at the time, or after. The wrong cathartic may keen you constipated as long asVou keep on using ill And the habitual use of irritating salts, or of powerful drugs in the highly concentrated form of pills and tablets may prove injurious. A week with properly prepared liquid laxative like Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin will tell you a lot. A few weeks' time, and your bowels can be "as regular as clockwork." Dr. Caldwell' Syrup Pepsin is an approved liquid laxative which all druggists keen ready for use.II makes an ideal family laxative: effective for all ages, and may be given the youngest child.
