Editorial Correspondence
LOS ANGELES, Feb. 27. Certainly a stoical race the
Japanese! This uprisinp, in Tokio, hs caused a great sensation
in Los Angeles, with extras coming out all day, and selling like
hot cakes. Under their brown skins the local Japs must be all
agog, but to observe them, no one would suspect it. Took a
stroll down to the leading Japanese newspaper. Many bulletins
posted up, and quite a crowd reading them, but as far as any
evidences of emotional excitement were concerned, the Nip
ponese mit-'ht. have been casually inspecting the want ad col
umns. Imagine a crowd of French, Italians or Americans under
similur circumstances! The Colonel's lady and Judy 0 'Grady
may be sisters under the skin, but Bill Smith and Samurai

The Los Angeles Times is a great newspaper one of the
best in the country from a news and feature standpoint. Lead
ing the features for many years has been Harry Carr, a column
ist par excellence, true master of the art of Baying a great deal
in a few words and saying it effectively. We noticed on our
arrival someone else was handling his "column-right" in the
second section, and assumed Carr was on his vacation. Drop
ping into the Times again we asked about it, and were shocked
to learn of his death only a few weeks ago, the result of a
motor accident. A tremendous loss to the Times. His successor
came over from the News, E. V. Durling by name, and certainly
has a touch assignment. He merely demonstrates each day
how superlatively good Carr was.

Wandered down to the Hall ot Justice to see what we could
see. On the 8th floor ran into a couple of stretcher bearers
transporting a large, bespectacled woman up tho hall, and we
followed along. She was all done up in blankets, with a couple
of pillows under her head; a seedy looking middle aged man
attended her. The procession filed into a court room, and we
looked on as the recumbent form was deposited carefully in
front of tho jury box. From the policeman at the door quickly
secured the low down. Tho injured lady it seems is Mrs. Golda
Gose and she is suing Hal Le Sucre, screen actor and brother
of Juan Crawford for $Sfi,400, as a result of a motor crash
last fall, in which tho Le Sucre and Gose cars were engaged.
Her attorney maintains she will never walk again. With an
exhibit like that before the jury box and a prosperous screen
star like .loan in the family it looks dark for Hal I,e S. Inci
dentally Mrs. Goso appeared in excellent health.

Sending any comments on the groan and grunt exhibition at

had one of tho best sport lines noted in many a day when it
deposed as follows5
"Man Mountain Dean, the whiskered blimp, missed King
Chiwaki completely and made a two-point landing against the
post!"
The Examiner nevertheless is deteriorating fast, now dis
playing that old wheeze on its masthead, "a paper for people
who THINK 1" No wonder William Randolph is worried and
the circulation manager resigned with a nervous breakdown.

Influenza outbroaks are difficult to

reports of records seldom tally with
popular rumors or statements In the
public prints. The state of the weath

matter. Just aa a hot dry spell

It is hard for anyone to die from
other natural cause than heat pros

riotic, and so the heat prostration or
the grip spreads like wildfire for a
week or two. One who contemplates
dying of apoplexy or angina pectoris

Since the great epidemic of 1018-

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Tomato Is Alkaline
In a list of foods to oppose acidosis
you mentioned tomato. I wonder If
that was a printer's error, as on two
occasions doctors have advised me to
exclude tomato from my diet as It
aggravates an already excessive acidity
of the stomach ... (J. O.)
Answer The acidity of the gas
tric Juice has no bearing on acidosis,
Tomato Is valuable in the diet to
oppose acidosis But In some condi
tions of the stomach, accompanied
with hyperechlorhydria or excessive
acidity tomato may be excluded be
cause tt Is a stimulant to the secre

There are still million of unem
