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.

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.
