But can he do what he wants to dot if he can and does put this down in your notebook, he will win a tougher fight oufof the ring, than lie ever has, or will, IN it!" , A year ago while here we made a tour of Wall Street not a tour in any serious sense but short visits with half a dozen old friends, all brokers but one and he a lawyer. During the past two days we have repeated this performance, and strange to say, with one exception, made the same contacts, and in general asked the same questions. A year ago the feeling against Roosevelt was intense, not a matter of political pre judice alone, it was personal a couple of cocktails, going ro far as to compare the President with Benedict Arnold and advocatiug a filing squad. They were serious about it too. Mad clear through. t There is no such feeling now at least in this particular group. They have no use for Roosevelt, his political theories or his administration, but they no longer fear him and there fore no longer hate him. They are as confident that he is through, that under no cirrumslanlcs can he be re-elected, as they are that the sun will come up tomorrow over Handy Hook. Another reason for this change in sentiment perhaps a more important one, is the change in the business picture. One of these men Inst year for example serious doubt that he would be for more than a few weeks. He and seriously advanced the idea that he would retire to a cer tain island off the Atlantic coast, fish, raise sugar cane and sweet potatoes. Such visions of That same man, admits business offices are operating on the usual a trip abroad. In other words, he is no longer seared to death. fairly accurately the general financial district at the present, other hand, it may not. Advertising in the air is even more noticeable this year than last. Following the Carnera-Loiiis fight, as the huge mob filed out, the night sky was filled with airplanes and blimps, Nailing about beneath the stars. On each machine, electric signs flushed off and on, not with brief flnshes like "buy 1'eters pants," or "Monopole gas for speed," but detailed sales talk, sentences of persuasion which became paragraphs, often closing with the name and street address of the dealer.

BACK TO NATUKA In answer to a correspondent you said you thought a boy ought not to have been forced to change from natural left- h a n d e dness to right-handedness Just to suit the whim of teacher or parent, but you w r a not very positive about tt. If you would be kind enough to give me the name and ad dress of your c o r r e s p ondent (Initials B. J. A.) 1 Hi.ouid like to write and tell her It is most decidedly wrong to force a child who la naturally left-handed to do anything like writing, eat ing, etc., with hta right hand When my brother waa quite young my paren ts forced Mm to change from natural left-handedneos to the use of his right. A few years later a New York doctor Insisted he must return to the use of his left hand. The results were almost miraculous. From being an extraordinarily poor pupil, he has become a great deal better than the average, and his whole outlook on things has been changed from a very pessimistic one to a cheerful and happy one. Thia change back to normal use of the left hand la probably moat effective when not too long postponed. That Is why I am anxious to tell Mrs. B. J. A. our experience. It occurs to me that you may not be at liberty to give out the Identity of your cor respondent. If that Is so X wonder if you will not write Mrs. B. J. A. your self. R. J. A. I n ref ere nee to giving ou t t he identity of a correspondent, I as sume no correspondent would wian me to do so In any circumstance without his express permission. Perhaps Mra. B. J. A. will see this article. I feel convinced In my own mind that It Is never advisable to at tempt to force a child to change handednesa when the child evinces a natural preference for the left hand. I am quite certain It la no part of a teacher's duty to attempt to interfere In a pupil's handedness. But this Is merely my opinion, end that la why I am not so positive about It as R. J. A. thirties I should be. I have observed a number of In stances where forced change of natu ral left-handedness to artificial right handedness has seemed to have an ill effect on the Individual's mental efficiency. I have observed many Comment on the Day's News By PRANK JENKINS ANOTHER revolution, we read in the papers, la on in China Just outside the gates of Pelplng. ana Involving the possibility of interven tion by foreign troops to restore order. This question arises: If news has to do with the UN USUAL, is a revolution in China news? A FAMOUS editor-once said that If a dog bites a man It isn't news, but if a man bites a dog it ts. According to that rule, a revolu tion In China Is not news, but peace would be. ANOTHER que Mon: Who wants peace? Well, all of us. more or less as long aa we have what we want When peace prevents us from get ting what we want, we're ready to go to war. Such la human nature. AT THE preaen moment, one ot the chief potential disturbers oi the peace Is Mussolini, who appears to be bent on going to war witn Ethiopia. England appears to bo try ing to dissuade him from this pur pose. At least, one gathers that Impres sion from the dispatches. HOW about it? Well, the chaneea are there's a nigser In the woodpile somewhere the temptation is strong to say there's an Ethiopian in the woodpile, but it nuiat be resisted in this se rious discourse. Ethiopia can grow cotton, and i reported to be planning to grow a lot of cotton for the Japanese mar ket. Japan has already taken cotton spinning supremacy sway from Eng- j land, and may do even worse In tne future. tf Italy goes to war with Ethiopia. this cotton growing scheme win probably be nipped In tlie bud. And Italy, of course, wouldn't DARE to go to ar with Ethiopia If she knew that England disapproved. j Such Is dipiomscy THIS paragraph appears In a dis patch from Washington: "President Roosevelt todsy signeo the resolution extending the MX.-: 000,000 In "nuisance" taxes for , io-frir period " These "nuisance' t"es. we reafl, fur l her, consist principally of excise L LEFT-HANDF.DNF.SS. Instances where stuttering and stam mering have seemed to result from this unnatural interference in the child's development. And I have ob served aome Instances where resump tion of the use of the left ha pa for writing or drawing or sewing or other fine work has seemed to bring remarkable relief to these condi tions. Them's my sentiments. That's all I have to say. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS. Young America. I expect a baby In November. Early In July my husband and I plan to start hiking through several states, and ihen start housekeeping. Will this harm me or my unborn child V M. 8, Answer Not at all. Good hunting, and be sure to drink plenty of milk and eat plenty of fruit. Send ft stamped envelope bearing your ad dress for Instructions for Prospec tive Mother. Inclose a dime if you want a copy of the Brady Baby Book. The Calory Curse. Each morning and evening I take a glass of acidophilus milk with two heaping teaspoonfuls of beta lactose. Would like to know the cal ory value of this, as 1 am trying to keep my weight down . . . V. H. Answer A glass of milk, plain or containing acidophilus culture, yields 160 calories. Two heaping teaspoon fuls of milk sugar yields about 70 calories. If you wish to reduce com fortably and safely, send a dime and stamped envelope for booklet, "Design for Dwindling." It Is not so much counting the calories sa it is a question of satisfying a normal hunger. Pyorrhea. Would you consider Just a drop or two of Iodine diluted In a glass three-fourths full of water, taken regularly, dangerous or helpful in the treatment of pyorrhea? R. H. S.

Well, It Is a sales tax under an other name. Sales taxes aren't par ticularly popular, so the politicians have to think tip another name for them. "Excise tx- Is a good, mouift fllltng name that serves the purpose. THESE so-called "nuisance" taxes, please note, raise about a hait billlon dollars a year.
