Editorial Correspondence
SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., Dec. 3. As everyone knows the
box fight game is pretty near a dead dodo. Outside of the few
top notch matches, particularly in the heavyweight class, the
average boxing card won't draw enough to pay for the rosin
and boxing gloves. The reason is not far to seek, boxing as a
whole is neither fish nor fowl; neither good hippodrome like
wrestling, nor good sport, like let us say, hockey. Above all
boxers go in there, to get their money, rather than to win ; a
real ding dong, honest-to-goodness contest, is about as rare as
an iceberg in the Sahara desert. In other words the financial
decline of boxing has been in direct proportion to the decline
of boxing as a sport.
What boxing could be if it were well managed, conducted as
a spirited clean and honest sport, is being shown in San Fran
cisco now, up at the Dreamland, where the 5th annual Golden
Gloves amateur tourney is now going on. As far as skill and
knowledge of the game are concerned these lads are pretty sad
ia comparison with their professional brothers. But they all
possess one thing which nine out of ten pros lack a determina
tion to win, to do their best, all the time, and to go down, if they
must go down, with colors flying. Tn other words these lads
are in there doing their dafndest all the time, not for the money
there is in it but the glory, and as a result practically every
contest is a thriller. And between five and six thousand people
paid in close to ten thousand dollars last night to see the opening
of the three day tournament. Perhaps one of these days a fight
promoter will have enough brains to see the obvious truth, that
the public will pay for good, clean sport, and won't in the long
run pay for anything else. Then again perhaps not.
....'
Why did 90,000 people pay out close to half a million dollars
the other day to see Stanford play California for the coast title f
And why did they all stay in their seats until the final whistle
blcwf Because they knew they were seeing a real honest to
goodness contest, between two of the best football teams in
the country, where every lad on the field, was giving everything
he had in him, every second of the play to bring victory to his
side. That's what brings the thrills and the satisfaction, not
skill, not even the closeness of the contest., but the spirit of the
thing, the amateur spirit if you please.; Had those same teams
been playing for the money in it, instead of their alina maters
we venture there wouldn't have been .10,000 people in the stands.
... ...
, The high cost oMiving may be goiug up, but the high cost
of dying certainlv isn't. During the past week a married
woman has shot and killed her philandering male; a divorcee
has shot her son because he was drinking too much; a man has
shot his wife 'because her'father wouldn't leave them alone;
another man has shot a waitress because he didn't like the soup,
and a couple of boys shot out the windows of a passing Santa Fe
train, just for target practice. All this marksmanship staged,
if you please, in the state of California. How long will it take
us as a uation to exercise the same, control over the sale of
firearms we notv exercise over drugs and poisons and motor
cars. . Not prohibit sales entirely, but confine them to identified
parties and as far as possible to responsible ones. That might
not stop ALL this shooting, but it would certainly reduce it.
.. '
Already in three of the cases, the criminal-lawyers have
started iu as they ajways rjo to build up fake evidence, manu
facture alibis, or -create a background for emotional' insanity.
If the criminals in the legal profession could be kicked out of
it; crime in this country would decline 50 overnight.
It has taken a great many years, but at Inst we can report
progress. Never again shall we .iudge any person on apjyar
ances. Yes for a long time we prided ourselves on the fact we
conld tell a great deal about the general character of any person
just by looking at him (or her) they looked good or they
looked bad; they looked dumb or they looked smart; they looked
straight or tney looked crooked, they looked this way or they
looked that, and in our conceit, we were for many years con
vinced we were at least 85 right, all the time.
We refuse to abandon our contention that appearances are
extremely important, but having just returned from a look at
the coroner's inquest over the murder of Johu H. Dumbrcll, we
admit they may also bo extremely deceiving. In fact if wo had
not read about this case, we would iiiKjiicstioimbly classify Mrs.
Dumbrcll, ns a fat, well meaning, kindly and rather common
place housewife, one of the last persous in the world one would
ever suspect of pulling out a gun, and shooting the husband she
had lived with for a quarter of a century through the eye. Her
weepy, nervous, timid manner, also belied such an assumption.
In fact, on appearances alone we would unhesitatingly pliioe
Mrs. Dumbrcll as well named, without the "r", but above all a
nice, inoffensive, motherly sort of person. Yet they say she is
a murderess and a cold blooded and unrepentant one. Just
shows you never can-tell.

To the Editor:
I wonder how many readers of
The Mall Tribune have read a little
hook entitled "Prohibiting Poverty
hy Mrs. Prestonl Mann Mrirtln. Here
Is a plan which If put in efteot
would do Just what the title indi
stw. The plan Is to regiment all youtn
at age 1H In Industry and require
them to work until age 3fl, produc
ing and distributing all neowarle
to every man, woman and child
without money or price. Erery per
son would be supplied with all
things necejvsary in food, clothing
and shelter, as well ts medical and
dental attention and would not be
required to pay one red cent. No
luturles would be thus provided,
onlr necessaries. A group of tech
nicians under direction of Stuart
Chase hu studied the matter and
arrived at the con -'hi at on that eight
years work thus performed, under
the direction of competent adults,
of course, would he sufficient to
earn ones living for the enti-e
life
A, tlie h& of 7 the! worker
would become free cltirens ana
take the place in the world best
suited to their Individual tastes
and capac1t.ee. thua becoming a
part of capltalintic society a now
constituted, this yatem not being
c'.ianged but ernt luutne m now
Whatever luxurtea are requireo
will be provided by thla cpitnti
fystem. but all necessarlee will
continue to be provided by the in
dustrial group above mentioned.
Every person, after reaching age ao
no graduating as a free citlren
may chooae any occupation or pro
fession rie&lred or may live a life
of te Inure.
This plan abolishes all unemploy
ment, all poverty, and all uncer
tainty as to the bread and butter
question, for all people and for ail
time. No more bread line, no more
"relief " no more Community Chests.
The above la a mere outline of the
P'-an. It Is at leaM Ingenious and

and has stated (hat It Is worthy of
consideration. Many should read the

OTHER THINOS THAN
In the two preceding lectures on
the correct protective diet or regen
eration regimen the only reference to
eggs was a vague
suggestion In the
title. Somehow I
am always a bit
diffident about
bringing up such
a foolish subject
in a lecture. Just
a foolish notion,
like a real doc
tor's antipathy
for apples. Actu
ally I am rather
fond of egg. In
gest them by
whatever route.
Candidly, then, tha breakfast menu
of this regimen mentions chastely
two eggs. Ingest them by whatever
route and In whatever condition you
prefer. I may say here, however,
that It has always seemed to me a
sinful extravagance to use eggs on
the scalp or hair, and I still main
tain one with a yhole skin cannot
absorb any egg Applied externally.
. An egg yields 75 to 80 calories, no
matter how hard It la boiled or bow
nearly au nature! you take It. It you
like eggs soft boiled or poached or
coddled, that's the way you should
have 'em. II you like eggs fried or
beaten raw or hard boiled and grated
or sliced , that's the wa y they are
most dlge:ible for you.
Theoretically It may be that a ferment-like
substance In raw egg albu
men or white tends to interfere with
complete digestion of the white In
the human stomach, and hence raw
egg Is not so, readily or completely
assimilable as cooked egg. But prac
tically It Is a question of Individual
taste, and this determines both di
gestibility and nutrltlvo value, where
any such question arises.
Two eggs represent a little less than
a pint of fresh pure clean whole raw,
pasteurized or certified milk in food
value. Egg furnishes all the neces
sary vitamins except C. Egg is an
excellent source of calcium, phospho
rus and Iron. The protein of egg in
as complete and adequate in human
nutrition as is sny other food pro
tein. Eggs are obtainable almost
everywhere, freMi at all sfusons. and ;
the purity of the food Is guaranteed I
by the virtually germ-proof egg shell. !
There la no essential nutritional
difference between Just 'eggs and ,
eggs graded as to size and color of 1
shell.
Unfortunately for the wiseacres,
eggs contain considerable sulphur
which on oxidation Is converted into
sulphuric acid; this makes eggs acid
forming, that la, egg metabolized in
the body leaves acid ash but let the

Eggs laid In clean nests and care
fully handled may be kept fresh for
weeks or months by Immersing In a
solution of one part of the commer
cial concentrated solution of sodium
silicate (water glass) In ten parts of
watr and storing In a cool place.
If the eggs are soiled they should
first be washed or scrubbed with
plain soap and water and the soap
well ringed with water.
Eggs placed In cold storage when
quite fresh and clean and with un
broken shell may be preserved many
months at a temperature of from
29 to 32 degrees T. Cold storage or
frozen eggs are perfectly wholesome
and edible, often preferable to "fresh"

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Complexion
My chum and and I use witch ha
zel to clean our skin. Friends ask
us what we use to keep our com
plexions so nice. We uso It only two
or three nights a week, as mother
says it tends to dry out the skin too
much if used oftener. We do not
use rouge or cosmetics. Is thts all
right? (A. T.)
Answer. Yes. The popular witch
hazel "extract" con tins about 14 per
cent alcohol, which la sufficient to
remove the excess skin oil or sebum
which young skins are likely to have.
Toilet water Is also good for the pur
pose, and sometimes the lotion Is
made more effective when tn grains
of resorcin Is dissolved in each ounce.
Creams of any sort are Injurious to
the complexion of the young person
who has an abundance of natural oil
In the skin anyway.
Father lit Insane
Would it be wise for a young man
to marry a girl whose father Is In

Answer. Unable to offer opinion
without some knowledge of the de
tails. The couple should go together
to the physician who knows the his

Comment

Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
POLITICAL headline : "Northwest
Against New peal Measures."
The dispatch under the headline
add:
"The United State Chamber or
Commerce reported today that a ref
erendum among Us members In the
Western and Pacific Northwest area
showed strong opposition to recent
trends In federal legislation."
(Tlje headline writer, please, note,
says what he has to say clearly, crisp
ly and plainly, with no possibility of
misunderstanding that being the
headline writer's business. The writer
of the dispatch clouds his meaning
by a lot of big words).
IN CONSIDERING this headline, re
member that the members of the
United States Chamber of Commerce
are business men, struggling to show
a profit In the face of staggering tax
ation now and In the future, and
GREATLY IN THE MINORITY When
it comes to voting. '
So don't Jump to the conclusion
that the skids are already under the
New Deal. It isn't what business
men think of It that will determine
the New Deal's fate next November.
Business men HAVEN'T VOTES
ENOUGH to swing elections.
WHAT will haTpetTto the New Deal
next year will - depend wholly
upon the feeling of the great masses
of common, average people who HAVE
THE VOTES.
, If they believe it is good for them,
the New Deal will win out. If they
are fearful of Us effect on their per
sonal fortunes, the New - Deal will
lose.
CONTINUING the thread of politics
and speaking of big words and
those who use them, here is an In
teresting paragraph from a Chicago
dispatch:
"The 'planned economy' of the New
Deal is leading straight to a collect
lvist dictatorship In America, Colo
nel Frank Knox, Chicago publisher
and a leading contender for the Re
publican presidential nomination,
said tolght."
If that is a sample of the Chicago
Colonel's methods, he might as well
quit now, for he will go all through
the campaign without getting over to
people what he is talking about.
"pJLANNED economy" is a system of
government in which a few
brainy big ehota at the top, who
fancy themselves highly, tell all the
rest of us what to do and how to do
It, and when.
A "collectlviat dictatorship" Is the
kind of dictatorship Russia now has,
where you do as the government soys
or fare a firing squad.
These aren't pleasant things to
contemplate, but you couldn't find it
out from Colonel Knox's Chicago
speech.

Bone of the munitions committee on
preparation of new legislation. Bone
will champion it.
The move apparently is not based
on any Inside diplomatic dope that
war la imminent, beyond that already
published. In fact, the bon ton are
silently praying that the war scare
will hold out long enough to fore
congress to extend their autaoity.
It might be fatal to mention namec
but a few southerners In the house
are quietly waiting to see if & r-hoot-mg
fray will develop when oongre
convenes next month.
It seems that one southern con
gressman became infuriated at a col
league near tbe close of last session
and threatened to shoot him on sight.
That word wa transmitted to the
colleague. No one peld much atten
tion to It except the fellow who wot
threatened. He could be found very
seldom at his office after true, ap-I-eared
on the floor Infrequently, and
finally departed before congretjts ad
journed. Now, It 3 ld, he is re
turning to duty by a circuitous loute
which will prewnt him from crossing
the path of the infuriated one. .
Meanwhile, the mil birds aro wait
ing and hoping.
Latest to encounter the . wrath of
&tate Secretory Hull la contrite Mr.
Icke3, the secretary of Interior. Some
of Mr. Hull's friends say It will re
quire two weeks for our diplomats
ibroad to straighten out 'the misun
derstandings caused by Mr Ickes' lat.
