Mussolini and World Opinion AN event in the news, demonstrates the power of public opinion. Not organized, or even articulate public opinion, but public opiuion as an imponderable, public opinion in the mass. The unexpected "backdown" of Italy at Geneva, for exam pl Why did the Italian delegation suddenly modify its attitude overnight! fX Thursday, Baron Pompeo Aloisi, was truculent, defiant. Italy was detemined to wage war against Ethiopia, "with the League, without the League, or against the League." There would be no compromise. Mussolini would not accept the ruling of any committee, on which citker France or England were represented. Italy would not accept Ethiopia as an equal, or as a member of the League. If Ethiopia stayed in, Italy would get out. The Italian delegation even refused to remain in the conference room, while Ethiopia's representative had the floor. TWENTY-FOUR hours later all wan changed. Objections to France and England sitting in oh the arbitration committee were withdrawn. The refusal to sit at the council table, if Ethiopia's representatives were present, was withdrawn. For the first time in a month, hope of averting war in Abyssinia, was revived. How come? What had happened, to cause this right about face! TTIE force of public opinion of world opinion is the answer. We can't support, this statement by any concrete evidence, on the other hand, we have no doubt whatever of its truth. Moreover, by the process of elimination, one arrives at the same conclusion. What else COULD have brought about this change of front. There had been no change in the essentials of the situation. But sometime between Thursday afternoon and Friday morn ing, something had penetratd the Mussolini consciousness, to give II Duce, pause. It was undoubtedly the realization, that if he persisted in his "rule or ruin" policy, the entire civilized world would be against him. aIUSSOLINI comes as near being completely self sufficient, self confident, fearless and ruthless, us any absolute ruler, in the world today. He had the power to go ahead, as he had threatened. There were no obstacles in his path, as far as force, or even coercive action, were concerned. His sabre rattling had worked to per fection, up to then. But at the Inst moment he faltered. The answer is: even II Duce, who fears neither "God, man or the devil" DOES fear world opinion or he did, for a sufficient length of time, to bring about a radical modification of his program. Whether or not this "seeing the light", will be lasting or only temporary, only the future can disclose. But the incident certainly demonstrates, that whether public opinion has or has no,t a medium of expression, in this day and age, just what the people THINK may be a vital factor in shap ing the destiny of the world.

Strikes and Violence T1TE are indebted to the Portland Oregonian for the following " timely editorial reprinted from the Oregon Labor Press condemning violence in labor strikes: Trade unionists of Portland used to read about and sometimes listen to stories of graft, racketeering, shooting and depredations of hired thugs who o-.ernted under direction of trade union executives in far-away cities and were heard proudly to remark that, no part of the labor movement of Portland had ever been implicated in things of that nature. And we were not until recently. During the past year there have been considerable violence, fights aud destruction of property in connection with union affairs and it was all climaxed Inst week hv the shooting of a non-union woodsnwver. Two men have confessed to the shooting. They further alleged Hint the secretary of the woodsayers' union hired them to do the shooting and paid them $100 for the job. They also alleged that the secretary agreed to pay them $'-'.") for each man they "beat up." The gangsters are not members of any union so far as we know. It appears they are professional thugs. Their "confessions" were gained by police and detec tives after hours of grilling. There is a chimeo Hint the whole thing may have been framed to discredit the unions. We arc not ready to admit that the union officials are guilty. They should be given fnirjintl impartial trial. If, after that is done, they are proven guilty, they should receive no further support from orennied labor, and should receive punish lent coiiimcnsiiiatc with the crime. The trade union movement of this country was not built by strong gnu methods and cannot progre under flint systcOi. You can't make union men by beating them up and you can't maintain the confidence and respect of employers and the public, by destroying propertv. condition in which the labor movement of Port !0Od ?.nt' itself today is due in a large measure to the i0pid end abnormal growth of the movement. Thousands of untrained, undisciplined men and women have joined the organisation smarting under the injustices they were coopelled to endure from their employers before they cre organized. In this frame of mind they are the easy dupes of extremists, who have come into tbo organizations fur this purpose of "boring from within" to wreck the unions. TlMjycat majority of the trado unionists of this com munity have their feet on the ground. They do not approve of strong-arm methods. They have no svinpatliy with the shooting, beating, property, destroying plan of organising and will do all they can to purge the movement of this curse.

Some truth in It, too. For Instance, when we don't know any thing about a malady we In st I n c t ively at tempt to conceal our ignorance under an impos ing name or a bit of ponderou language. One of the old stand- bys for that pur pose Is the ad jective ldlopath tc. In perfect candor mat means we don't know, but it Is undignified and dangerous for the doctor in practice to say frankly that he doesn't know. I tried It time and again, and Invariably I lost prestige and practice. The doc tor must at least make believe he knows, or the patient will go to an other doctor who Is more competent at that. These primary anemias chlorosis (the green sickness), pernicious ane mia, hypochromic anemia and leuk emia, are all more or less ldlopathls. If I were quite consistent I should now grab my pipe and my bowls and dig for the bowling green. There is really nothing more to be said, but I must give the old customers an other column or two or they will feel disappointed. The other day I advertised for a case of chlorosis, the green sickness, and gave a detailed description of that now nearly extinct type of ane mia, to learn whether any of our readers might know of a case. Today I'll sketch the salient fea- tures of hypochromic anemia, which has npparently superseded chlorosis In the past twenty years, being as common today as chlorosis was In the gay nineties. The blood picture of hypochromic anemln Is the same as that of chloro sis a great dlmunltlon In the color ing matter ( hemoglobin ) . often 50 per cent or more below norma), but a comparatively slight dlmunltlon In the number of red corpuscles, often only 30 per cent below normal. In this respect hypochromic anemia (hypochromic means low In color) is the opposite to pernicious anemia. In which there is a great diminution of the number of red corpuscles In the blood but a comparatively slight diminution In the amount of hemo globin. The old-time "green sickness oc curred chiefly in girls from 14 to 17 years of age. The latter-day hypo chromic anemia occurs chiefly in wo men in their fourth or fifth decades. The woman with hypochromic an emia la sallow, and her skin becomes prematurely wrinkled, inelastic and dry. Her hair Is lusterless and dry and tends to turn gray too early. The nails become brittle, flattened, perhaps concave or spooned; they lack the na tural luster and are often ridged ver tically. A frequent complaint is sorb tongue and many patients complain of some difficulty In swallowing and a tendency to choke on swallowing meat. The tongue in early cases is in tensely red and looks Inflamed; the papillae cannot be seen, and the nor mal coat is absent. In long standing cases the tongue is atrophied, much smaller than normal, shiny, without the rough papillae and slight coat of a normal tongue. "Bold" tongue. It Is called. There la usually absence of hydrochloric acid In the gastric juice, and Insufficient gastric Juice secrete to digest food properly, these being Indications of nutritional de ficiency. The nutritional deficiency will be discussed in an early article. Probably the failure of gastric Juice accounts for the failure of the sys tem to assimilate iron. That, too, will be discussed In the article to follow. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Who flptlled the Hops.. To the Editor; According to the papers there Is a 6000 size shortage of hop pickers in Oregon. Strange, Isn't it? Considering all the pre-season ad vertising used by the growers there must be something radically wrong when pickers failed to respond. With good crops, assured market and organized bargaining facilities well lnt hand the growers apparently had the world by $.e tail until the wage earners tooka long look at the lc per pound and the intimidation bonus which the growers were offer ing that wrecked the works. There were no general strikes, the pickers simply passed up the hop yards as a dead loss t them. After the growers discovered that their stew was well scorched they were forced to do what they should have done at the beginning share their profits with labor. The one and one-half cents per pound which the growers are now paying would have produced an over supply of pickers earlier In the sea son and done away with the necessity for the trouble-making bonus Idea. JOHN H. HECKNER. Jacksonville, Sept. 7th. Nutritional Deficiency Kindly advise what to do for ridged, brittle fingernails . . .
