This Is Navy Day THIS is navy day. Medford as an inland town, Isn't particu larly int-r-stpri in th fact.. The naw ii somethinc for the people along the coast to worry about, go navy day will pass unnoticed. This is natural. Yet an adequate navy for the United States is important to all the citizens of this country, whether they live on the coast or far inland. Therefore paying some attention to naval matters, one day in the year, is not too much to ask of the people who seldom have their olfactory organs stimulated by the salt breeze. FOR the navy is our first defense. If this country ever gets into another war. it will certainlv be aeainst one of the great naval powers. With the entire world in its present ex plosive state, President Roosevelt was therefore entirely right, in putting through a program to bring up our naval strength to something approaching normalcy. In certain pacifist quarters this action has been criticized. The fact has been pointed out, that because of this decision, Great Britain and Japan have started new building programs, and a revival of the old naval race for supremacy is on. This is not true, and the criticism is entirely unwarranted. President Roosevelt has not authorized a New building program. All he has authorized is a gradual building up of the American navy to its quota allowed by the naval disarmament conference. fREAT BRITAIN lacks but 50 ships of having her treaty quota; Japan but 7 ships, while the United States is short by 121 SHIPS I This building program therefore, merely marks America's intention to put itself on something of a par with the other signatories of the treaty. It involves no naval race. It is merely carrying out the terms of a naval limitation agreement. Building these new warships will in fact tend to discourage such a contest. For it will show England and Japan that Uncle Sam is not sound asleep, intends to take advantage of the treaty provisions, and knowing they can't compete with America in such a frame of mind, will gladly conform to the limitation agreement themselves. Keeping the American navy up to date therefore, not only renders war less likely, but serves at this time, as an important factor in the increase of payrolls, and the reduction of unem ployment. , The Blind Can 't See HPHINGS are happening so fast these days it is impossible to keep up with the procession. There was an item in the news at least a week ago which we intended to comment upon, but because other matters intruded, never got around to it. This had to do with the testimony before the senate commit tee of one Mr. Reed, of the firm of Dillon and Reed, prominent New York investment bankers. Almost as interesting as what Mr. Reed said, was the WAY he said it. He proved to be a most willing and amiable wit ness, in fact seemed rather proud of himself, and had all his family there to see the performance. A MONG other things Mr. Reed admitted that during the post war boom, he and his associates formed an investment trust, selling stock to the publie for many millions, 15 or 20 if we remember correctly. Hib banking house dealt largely in stocks and bonds, particu larly the former. Without batting an eye, he admitted that he unloaded truck loads of stocks on this investment trust, at the top price, his own bank pocketed the huge profits, his invest ment trust, which was owned in reality by the investing public held the sack. In other words he followed the Biblical injunction literally, and did not let his left hand know what his right hand "dideth." TRUE this procedure has been common all too common, in ..uuuuo i.w.ii.g v.id ynav UKOUB. XJIIL WIO BUKl&lUg llllllg is that Mr. Reed seemed to scse nothing reprehensible in the part he played in it. In fact he seemed proud of what he clearly re garded as a clever financial achievement. The news report did not say what became of the Investment Trust. But it is fair to assume, that the investors lost their mil lions, or most of them while the Dillon-Reed banking firm UIDN T. To a man up a tree it was nothing but a swindle. But if Mr. Reed sensed the fact, then he is a greater aotor than Edwin Booth. TTIE incident merely shows the need of a thorough house- cleaning in the entire financial set up, in our large cities, and particularly in Wall Street. The necessity of divorcing the banking business, from the investment business, making banks what they once were, safe depositories of the people's funds, to be held in trust, and not accumulations of cash, which bank officials are entitled to gamble with. Fortunately this is what has been done in the new Glass- Steagal banking bill. Hereafter bankers like Mr. Reed, who have no true sense of their public responsibility, recognize no ethical values in high finance whatever, will have what they should have had before, Uncle Sam armed with a big stick, direotly on their heels.

William Brady, set El Camlno. tfeveiley mils. Cax A TYPICAL BIT OF NEBVOIS IMPOSITION A school teacher aged 83 had been In poor health for several years. She had many "nervous" symptoms. She wss frail, easily tired, woke up morn- Wlngs unrefreshed, ate well enough but nevertheless lost weight end hsd 'flushes." She went to her family physician, w.io made a per functory examina tion and told her she had alight anemia, and was "nervous." He kept her taking Iron tonics for three years, and the patient lost ground. Finally she went to another physi cian, who told her she was merely iw7w-r" rVis-' eUf of nervous temperament and had be come tired out from th'' strain of teaching and needed a rest. She was accompanied by a friend who pricked up her ears at this and said to the physician: "You say she Is nervous. What we wish to know Is what Is really wrong with her." Don t go away, brethren. This la going to be a good lesson In health for doctors. . ' No sooner had the brazen young j woman uttered this remark than the physician turned to her with a dis dainful smile and wittily observed: "You have been reading Dr. Brady, haven't you?" Thanks for the ad, my dear quack. After that the physician disre garded the patient's friend and quick ly sent the patient on her way still deceived. The friend who had been so thor ! oughly squelched by the doctor now brought pressure to beer and per t auaded the poor teacher to go and I ae a doctor who had shown his di agnostic abUlty in snother esse the young woman knew about. This doe tor hazarded no opinion until h had carried out complete exami nation. Then A Informed the teacher that she had tuberculosis and had undoubtedly had It for two years. Brethren. Is there any need to point a moral? Of course It take soma oourage for a doctor to Inform a patient he doesn't know aa yet what the trouble Is. Patients of limited Intelligence are quite likely to quit cold and go to some doctor who can and will teU 'em what It Is at the first sight, and there are plenty of such humbugs practicing medicine and In good standing so far as the public Is aware. But this Is a risk the physician has got to take If he has honorable ambition. If his object Is to make money pe-haps he can achieve It bet ter by catering' to the Ignorant In thla matter. Likewise It takee som courage for a -locor to inform a "nervous" "anemic" or "tired out" patient that the actual trouble Is tuberculosis. There Is likely to be some such char latan as the one who made the wlse craci. about reading Brady, who will persist In assuring th family that ths notion of tuberculosis is U bosh until something serious happens to -settle the argument. I should like to warn all young persons who may b anemic, tired out, "nervous" and who hav lost weight snd strength, to beware of drifting along on the assumption that the trouble la so simple, or at least to take no such action until a pains taking physician has made at least on exsmlnatlon of the chest, of course with the patient stripped to UMy waist. QUESTIONS AXD ANSWERS The Baby walks Our baby 19 months old hss not walked by himself yet. He can walk holding onto furniture, but seems to lack confidence. Our doctor examined him and advised us to leave him alone, but lent there some way we can help him gain confidence? He la able to speak a few words and eats by himself all right. . . . (Mrs. M. C. A.) Ans. Your doctor gave sound ad' vie. Contrivances to teach or help the baby to walk are not advisable and may do harm. Ordinary encour agement of his own efforts, and not too much of that, la sufficient. If you are sure be Is not making pro gress In the space of a month, then have the baby examined for mental defect.
