The Perplexing Relief Problem
THERE is general agreement that the moat critical' problem
in America today is unemployment and relief.
In spile cf gradual business improvement, unemployment has
not materially declined, and neither has relief.
There is also general agreement that relief, as it has been
extended and enlarged, has resulted in a serioua lowering of
the national fibre.
There are thousands of people who not only accept relief,
bur who clamor for it, and even when their prospecta improve,
are loath to part with it. In the country at large they 'represent
a derided MINORITY, but they also represent a serious problem
in the maintenance of the national morale. ,
All of which is most regrettable.
WHEN it comes to suggesting way ont, however, there
is no agreement. When there are 10,000,000 people out
of work, and two or three times that number, in need of food
and shelter; what are you or
to do about it?
Let them starve! To that query the practically universal
answer is "No." What then I
Well, we don't know and we have yet to find anyone who
does. OTHER than to. follow the course the government has
followed in the present crisis.
You can't let millions of people starve, you can't let millions
of people suffer, and yet if you feed and clothe' them you can't
avoid, creating a growing dependent class, undermining to a
certain extent self reliance and initiative, adding to the prob
lem of want, the problem of national demoralization.
If that is true-and we don't believe anyone will deny it,
then why not accept it as the truth and stop complaining
about it.
WE HAVE, as a people, decided against the doctrine of "let
them eat cuke." Wc have turned thumbs down on the
iliotum of "root hog or die.'VWe have adopted the theory that
it is the duty of a government
through no fault of their own,
themselves.
All right.
Having adopted that, let's stick to it, and see it through.
Either that or frankly abandon it, and let Nature and the
Grim Reaper solve the problem for us.
But for Petes sake, let's stop approving relief as a NECES
SITY on one hand, and then condemning it or rather its
INEVITABLE by-product as the ruination of the country on
the other.
That is neither good sportsmanship nor good sense. It ,is
essentially nothing more than the squawk of the spoiled child
who wants to eat his cake and have it too.
We don't mean constructive criticisms of the METHODS
of relief are not in order. They are. The more the better for
all concerned.
But we DO meau the blind, destructive criticisms of -public
relief ITSELF, the only ALTERNATIVE TO WHICH IS, TO
ABANDON public relief entirely,
and by common consent should

administering it.
Should there be an out - and
bodied persons be compelled to
Should the work done for
struction of something of public
should it be just work of any
by one crew, and the filling up
In its program of trial and error, the present administration,
has experimented with all methods, but if we understand its
present policy correctly, it has abandoned, the out-and-out dole,
it has adopted the work for relief principle; and it has also
adopted the theory that the work done should be useful work.
Such program strikes us as a sensible one. We also heartily
approve of the President's insistence, that relief wages should
be minimum wa?es, and not as was first ordered "prosperity
wigra, "
This method will not demoralize tbe prevailing wage scale
on one hand, and will not make relief work a temptation for the
man who already has a job on the other. It will make relief
wages, subsistence wages and no more, which is what they
should be.
OUT neither this nor any other relief program js going to be
perfect. It is not going to eliminate abuses entirely, it is
not going to completely preveut waste, it is not going (where
so many millioiiH are involved) to render certain instances of
corruption IMI'OSSinLE. These imperfections are inhereut in
the problem itself. In short, however we trest it, public relief
on such a scale, as conditions demand, is a MISFORTUNE;
just ns the depression which caused it, however we look at it,
is a major CATASTROPHE.
There is no painless or perfect way out. In this we entirely
agree with 'Walter I.ipmann, who in bis recent analysis of the
government relief problem concludes as follows:
"It u a very liard question. The tundnnwnts! Issue Is not finsn
cliil nnd not political. It Is morM. It U the question of how much
you enn help others without ruining their csyseltv In help them
selves. It Is a question lht hu been debated In the Eiitllsb
spenxlns: world since the time ot queen EllMbelh. and a century
ap In England there was a fwullamentary Inquiry Into tula question
almol every year tor the 30 years alter the close of the Napolonlc
r. The more I study It. the lees Inclined I feel to mske quick
or final Judgments on what u. ewentlally a question of the char
acter and the motlvre of those who are in want. My Belief Is that
here aa In other questions of practical moraU. the absolutists are
almost surely wrong, and that the only course Is to mske a constant
effort lo strike a balance between sympathy for dlstreas and pru
oenco in giving relief, knowing all the time that the need oJ relief
is In Itself an evil and that the perfect wtiy of administering It la
not lo be found.

WHY DROWN' I
X have recommended to thousands'
of students of health an excellent
little book published a few years ago
by McCollum and Slmmonds. Balti
more, "Pood, Nu
t r 1 t 1 o n snd
Health." Prof.
McCollum Is head
and Prof. Slm
monds associate
of the chemical
hygiene depart
ment in the
school of hy
glene. Johns
Hopkins. McCol
lum Is famous
for his work In
nutrl tlon and
the newer knowledge of vitamins,
But neither of these eminent au
thorities In the field Indicated is a
physician. Neither has had any ex
perience In practice. And so I have
always endeavored to warn students
of health against taking the gratui
tous medical advice In . the little
book too seriously. The authors ap
pear to have been obsessed with a
queer notion about "autointoxica
tion" when they wrote the book. Rid-
lng the obsession to beat tbe band
they urge upon the reader the mor
bid, unphyslologlcal habit of drink
ing, first thing every morning, a
quart of water containing two level
teaspoon fuls of common table saltl
They concede that some Individuals ,
can drink only two oups, others three
cups of this salt water, but they ap
parently assume many can down the
whole quart and then He down for i
half an hour or remain on their feet
as they find more agreeable. I have,
an Idea I'd rather alternate, and per- i
baps try other positions, until ... '
In a healthy subject, say these
near-doctors, there Is practically no
absorption of the salt water by the
system. Why not? Ob. you wouldn't
understand, and neither do I, for I'm !
Just an ordinary old door-to-door j
doc, but these near-doctors of Johns ,
Hopkins say It Is because the big
drink Is "Isotonic," that Is, as some
of you lay birds will Imagine, some
kind of tonic, but of the .same salt I
strength as the blood.
By following this strange practice,
declare the J. H. near-doctors, the In
testine Is washed out thoroly each
morning. What they mean Is that
you give yourself an "Internal bath"
every morning. j
Why any one should want to wash
out the alimentary- tract every morn
ing Is one of those deep mysteries of
hygiene that may be solved only In
such an Institution as Johns Hopkins

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Painting the Lily
I bought some Florida oranges, al
most red In color, bearing the Im
print "Color added." They are not
very good oranges, but the color did
not seep thru Into the pulp so far
aa I can see. Is there any danger tn
eating such colored fruit? (H. C. W.)
Answer I believe the coloring
matter Is non-poisonous. Why not
switch to canned tomato or tomato
Juice till you get un doc to red oranges?
Canned tomato juice Is as good as
orange Juice as a source of vitamin C.
and many times, better as a source of
vitamin A. Much of the Florida fruit
crop was ruined by frost last sea
son. Drinks
Are alcoholic drinks harmful to a
person who has gall bladder trouble?

Answer Yes. .
Permanent Teeth
Daughter (age 8 years) has lost her
front baby teeth and no signs yet of
the after teeth coming In. What Is
the cause? She eats and sleeps well,
hss milk for every meal, oatmeal for
breakfast, a vegetable every day.
(Mrs. W. H. J.)
Answer Probably nothing the mat
ter. Child should cut the first per
manent tooth (first molar) at the
age of 6 years, first Incisor at 7 or 8
years, bicuspids at 9 to 10 years, ca
nines at 13 to 14 years, second mo
lars at 13 to 14 and third molars or
wisdom teeth (If any) at from 17 to
26 years of age. Just -see that your
child gets plenty of vitamin D milk,
eggs, butter and sunshine on naked
skin.

Comment
on the
Day's News
. By FRANK JENKINS
DROUGHT condition. In the plains
country, the dispatches tell us,
are even worse on April 1 of this
year than on the same data last year.
It la even probable, the front pages
tell us, that the United States may
be forced to IMPORT WHEAT this
winter.
When old Mother Nature starts In
to cut down crop surpluses, she be
lieves In doing a thorough Job.
AS A compromise between the ef
ficiency of nature and man In
thla matter, remember that for years
man haa been endeavoring, by law
or otherwise, to reduce the surplus
of wheat, and all the time the wheat
surplua haa GROWN. But when na
ture take, a hand, It disappears.
The brain trusters probably would
not admit It, but there are some
thlnga that nature does far better
than man.
THERE are some tilings, unfortu
nately, that NEITHER does very
well.
An Oklahoma dispatch, for exam
ple, telta us that Russell Boley, aged
18, haa confessed that he shot and
killed his mother and tauter, wiiuse
bodies were found In their burning
farm home on February 6.
Neither nature nor man whichever
la responsible for that tragedy can
feel v.ry proud of the Job done In
Rueeell Boley's case. '
ANEW YORK dispatch relates: j
"The New Yp.rH stock exchange j
today cut Its official call money rate
to one-half of one per cent, a new i
record low. j
Why? I
The answer la quite simple: Not
enough people want to . use cal
money for gambling purposes on the
stock market.
The price of money, you know. .
goea up and down In response to the
law of supply and demand. Just like
the price of other commodities.
IF YOU are one o! the considerable
number of American citizens wlio
do no gambling on the stock market,
you may ask: "What la call money?"
It la exactly what the mime indi
cates money that must be repaid
whenever It is called for. If you have I
some money you don't want today or I
tomorrow, but may want next week,
you offer It for use on the call '
money market, and when you do j
want It you CALL for It and the bor- I
rower has to repay tfr at once. j
It ts cheap because the borrower
doeen't know when he will have to
repay It. and so has to hold himself
In readiness to repay It ANY TIME. !
Hence Its value Is low.
It la used chiefly for stock market !
gambling, because the stock market
is the only Institution liquid enough i
to make possible repayment of loans j
on such short notice.
-
YOU may feel aggrieved because
call money is available to the
stock msrket gambler at one-half of i
one per cent, -whereas you have to
pay many times that rate for money i
for constructive purposes. I
DON'T feel aggrieved. 1
You and I, and all the reat of us
engaged In the productive enterprises
that really keep the stock market
going, wouldn't have much use for
that kind of' money.
