In a week or two of fair hunting

O.LESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Whooping Cough
My six -year old son has whooping
cough. I am giving him 6 drops of
dtatussln every three hours. When
he gets the coughing spells he can't
get his breath but Just turns
blue . . . (Mrs. B.)
Answer That Is the way with
whooping cough. A snug wide belly
belt with stout elastic webbing In
serts on each side, kept on over the
undershirt. Is a help to the child.
X-ray treatment to region of dia
phragm seems to lessen severity of
the spells. I know of no advantage
from dlatussln.

Since my 15-months old baby was
three or four weeks old he has been
getting mineral oil every night. If I
fall' to give It one evening, his bowels
will not move. Doctor thinks he will
outgrow It . . . (Mrs. R. O.)
Answer It Is a mischievous habit
you are cultivating. If you could not
get any mineral oil or any other
physic. In a week the baby would
recover natural function.

Comment
on the
Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
ANOTHER significant bit of news:
"The agricultural adjustment
act, under, which the administration
seeks to control agriculture produc
tion, raise prices and recompense (a
brain truster's big word meaning 'pay
for') farmers for crop reduction, to
day in large part was held unconsti
tutional by the U. 3. circuit court of
appeals."
NOTE, please.- that it Is a federal
circuit court of appeals, NOT
the supreme court, that holds AAA
in large past unconstitutional. The
supreme court of the United States
may hold otherwise. And It Is the
U. 8. supreme court that la the final
authority.
But the decision la at least Inter
esting as showing how Judges who
hold office FOR LIFE feel about the
principle of putting the fate of ALL
BUSINESS Into the hands of the
government which means tn the
final analysis, Into the hands of the
politicians.
IT is believed by many that the ban
dit who held up a bank In the
little town of Sumner. In the Puyal
lup valley In Washington, getting
9500. and then killed two of the pur
suing officers, is William Mahan, the
chief kidnaper of the Weyerhaeuser
boy.
Maybe so. But it ' sounds funny.
Still, almost ANYTHING can happen
In these days.
Almost anything, that is, except
something sensible, reasonable and
wise.
SPEAKINO of kidnaping, J. Edgar
Hoover, director of the bureau
of Investigation of the department of
Justice and chief of the famous G
men, says In an Interview In Wash
ington that the Hauptmann trial was
a "disgusting spectacle" and a "Ro
man holiday."
To which this writer, who makes
his living out of newspapers, which
HELPED to make the Hauptmann
trial a disgusting spectacle, adds a
fervent Amen I
HOOVER goes on:
"This thing of making a cir
cus out of a murder trial is disgust
ing. I would be the first to pooh
pooh false dignity, but I think there
are certain proprieties that should be
observed. ,
"The press Is not to blame. If you
put on a freak show, the press will
report It as such. If you put on a
dignified trial I am convinced the
press will report it as such."
THANKS. MrTHoover, for those
kind words regarding the press.
This writer, however, would modify
them slightly, putting it this way:
"The press Is not WHOLLY to blame."
The newspapers didn't, all by
themselves and without assistance,
make a three-ring circus out of the
Hauptmann trial, but they certainly
did nothing to STOP the circus or
make it less spectacular.
THIS writer happens also to be a
publisher, doesn't care much for
spectacular Journalism, preferring
newspapers that report the news
carefully, accurately and fairly.

BEGINS SECOND YEAR IN 'IRON LUNG
Paul White, 13-year-old Infantile paralysis victim of Monterey,
Calif., began his second year In a respirator at his home in a cheer,
ful mood. While In the "iron lung" Paul kept up with his school les
sons with the help of Nurse Lilian Nutt and was graduated this year.

was not so obvious. The published
stories failed to recall that his lost
big publicized Investment was In the
Al Smith campaign of 1028. Post
master General Farley's democratic
national committee still owes him
$45,000 on that.
It has been suggested that, If Mr.
Raskob were big-hearted, he would
apply his expected profits from Mr.
Morgenthau's policy to cancelling the
debt, but there seems to be some
question as to how big Mr. Raskob's
heart gets when the new deal Is
mentioned.
At any time, they are now one for
all and all for a higher silver price
Messrs. Morgenthau, Plttman, Raskob
and unidentifiable members of the
syndicate, the stock of which will
not be sold to the public.
The spasmodic waves of distrust
apparently are sponsored by new
dealers themselves. For instance, cer
tain treasury officials dropped a few
disparaging remarks about the sil
ver policy before Senator McCanin
wrote a letter to Mr. Morgenthau
some weeks agoasklng If he was liv
ing up to the law.
The most recent wave apparently
Is traceable to an article published in
one of the new deal's own magnzlnes,
criticizing the silver policy gently. It
is generally believed that one of Mr.
Roosevelt's good advlBers has lately
changed his mind and no longer sees
economic possibilities in the policy.
At the moment, what the silver
speculators are plaguing Mr. Morgen
thau in one way or another to find
out Is whether he will boost the price
to $1.29 before next year's elections.
There Is some betting that he will,
because the silver senators will tell
