In a Tough Spot PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT feces a very obvious and interest- ing dilemma. The more he succeeds with the New Deal, the greater his risks of political failure. For one of the chief purposes to restore prosperity. Tet the becomes, the more resentment which the New Deal proposes. It is a repetition of that well known Rabelaisian adage "The Devil was sick the Devil a monk would bei The Devil was well the devil a monk was he." When the New Deal was desperately sick. It was also willing to be a monk, it was Dr. Roosevelt might prescribe. bait, hook and sinker without for more. Would Big Business be good it think more of service and less welfare and less of private greed t It would. It would do anything LITERALLY anything if the doctor would only put the make him well. QINCE that first treatment conditions have materially im proved. The patient has not regained his FULL vigor, but he is no longer afraid of shuffling off this mortal coil. He no longer sees the undertaker lurking just around the corner. He is quite confident he no longer needs a doctor, and if left alone will soon be himself again. But the doctor has other ideas, He asks, how about that promise to be good. How about that promise not to return to the habits which led to this eatastrophie breakdown. The doc tor wants a complete cure not a half-cure. And if the patient returns to his old ways, he believes, a relapse is certain. HPHAT is approximately the situation now. The criticisms of the New Deal at the recent convention of the U. S. Cham ber of Commerce, show the handwriting on the wall. Through out the country, with everyone feeling better, the idea of con forming to certain rules and regulations, is becoming more and more repugnant "Medicine is all right when one is ill, but who wants to take it when one ISN'T." KTO one 1 And the better business becomes the stronger will ' be the outory against the NRA and further ''regimentation." So we repeat President Roosevelt is between the devil and the deep blue sea. 'The better business conditions become, the greater the outcry against the Ngw Deal. Fortunately Franklin D. has before, and while the situation is in the country better able than It will be exceedingly interesting to see how he docs the job, He Can Do No Wrong HOLMAN is a very we know no one questions but he does lack balance. Convinced that this is a very uncorrupted public man in it, away with his judgment. His recent refusal to resign came a candidate for governor, is to do that, because he HONESTLY, believes that it would be better for him to hold two offices in this state than one. In fact if it were physically possible it would be better for this state, in his opinion, it he held for then only would the people square-deal. This dooision Rufus made was no doubt he now realizes it, but there will be no admission of the takes. When he gets in hot water, he has one sure-fire method of escape, to-wit: The Power Trust and the subsidized press are after him the Devil and all his imps are Galahad again. That will be his "comoback" man is right ho is right ; and when ho is wrong he is being cruoi ficd, maligned and traduced by the predatory interests. It's really laughable. But, of ton it works I Communications Jubilee 4 1 nicer.

HERE'S MY IDEA ABOUT EXPOSURE REMEMBER THIS IS A FREE COUNTRY A certain quack In the newspaper health column racket (not myself, but another) hands his readers this 'Getting chilled ls bad, because the chilling low- era the resist- ance. . . "Consequently, you will take cold more easily If you pumper your - self by staying all the time In overheat- ed rooms." If y o u can make anything of that you're a better lawyer than I am. ' To my mind It la Just another way of saying "ventilate but beware of drafts." Scientifically, experimentally, we have no evidence that ordinary chill ing, such as people commonly ex perience every day, has any appreci able effect on the degree of Immunity the Individual happens to have against any known disease. The talk about "lowering resistance" Is Just ao much blah. Apart from Immunity, which Is a clearly recognized and measurable state, there la no such thing as "resistance" anyway. Now I want to be perfectly fair with you. If I'm at all off my nut about thla It Is right that you should know It, for nobody cares to follow the health or medical advice of a doc tor who is clearly batty In the bel fry. So here I lay all my cards on the table. I give you my sincere conviction or belief. I challenge any one to controvert It In any point. If you think I'm wrong, very well, my ravings may abuse you but tan't do you any harm. If you think I'm right, then try following my sugges tion and see how it works out In your own case or In your home. I believe exposure to cold, wet, aud. den changes of temperature, weather. drafts, winds, dampness and the like never cause any Illness except frost bite. I believe that any child of normal mentality knows better than anyone else whether he la warm enough In any circumstance. If the cold, or dampness, or draft, or lack of clothing proves at all uncomfort able, I think the child or adult may be safely left to seek ft warmer or more comfortab?? place or to put on more clothing or to change to dry things when convenient, and mean while nobody should worry about It. I believe It Is rather better for health In all circumstances to have the dwelling a bit underbeated, or to wear leas clothing than is the rule, or to cultivate the draftler part of the room rather than avoid the cir culating air. I believe coddling or pampering with too much clothing, too warm air, exoludlng draft and all that, tends to prevent the indi vidual from developing the fullest IS DEAD AS CAN BE BALTIMORE, May 5. p) Or.

"Thirteen" 1 the dog on whom re vocation experiment have been conducted by Dr. Robert E. Cornl-m at the University of California. The heart of the dog was stopped clinic ally and then renewed. The fact that the dog still bark and swallows his food are only nor mal reflex actions which have been produced frequently In the labora tory of Pavlov, the Russian scientist, accord lng to Dr. Oantt. In Pavlov's laboratory, said Dr. Oantt, vital part of the brain have been actually removed and the dog has continued to perform certain func tions. 'You can get all kinds of reflexes by direct and Indirect stimulation," Dr. Oantt said. "If you will place food in a decerebrated dog' mouth he will swallow. Sometime, If you start one reflex, it will start another one, be cause they often work in chains. Thus, he might move hi legs And bark, as well a swallow." T WASHINGTON, May 8. (AP) Sen ator Carey (R.. Wyo. criticized what he called bureaucratic control on western rates, and some phases of the new deal's recovery efforts In an address tonight before the Yale club.

Senator Carey said, "but unfortunately for there are some who live here who. while the Miow little of our problems. either through orcanlrMlons or through their personal efforts, are constantly planning things for us and arocating legislation, much of which would hare a serious effect on our welfare and development if car ried out.1 He added that "they Insist that certain of the western state should be considered as provinces rather than as sovereign commonwealths."

I do not believe In "hardening" or exposing children .or adults to dia comfort of any sort. But if a child likes to go with knee bare In winter, or without an overcoat, or without any clothes at alb I'd say by all means let the child do a he likes. i Likewise I favor the steady growth of the movement for nudism, or as 1 nearly that natural mode of life as ! we can attain. In my experience when any one suddenly stuffs up and begins to sneeze or sniffle or cough In a draft or when he ventures outdoors with out his muffler on or without his overcoat on a damp day, he Is not "taking cold" at all; he Is merely presenting an excessive reaction to the environmental variation, due to his CHRONIC rhinitis, sinusitis or similar pathological condition.

The International spy ring Just dug up by the secret police Is the counter-irritant. The French politician figure that if they can get the French people thinking about a fascinating new In ternational spy ring they will forget about the rioting and dosorders that have been occurring in Paris with disturbing frequency of late.

In the Jungles of the Amazon, ex plorers tell us, are two savage tribes, living near each other, The women of one trrbe wear clothes. The women of j the other go naked.
