Such frankness

be astonished to learn of the number
of recurrences the surgeon has. In

find that the scar tissue Is hard. . . ."
Bitter Irony here for the brass sur

about himself and his trade). Only
a few years ago the B. 8. of Yankee
land were loudly and angrily assert
ing that the ambulant treatment of
hernia made subsequent operation
more difficult, because of the scar

Many physicians who have devel

treatment find thla method Is espe

who have- been operated on and who
till have hernia or a recurrence.
Real surgeons everywhere (a real
sugeon la a doctor who knows when
not to operate and welcomes any
method of remedy, no matter how
new, tf It offers promise of benefit)
are either taking post-graduate In
struction in the new method or else
referring suitable cases to medical
colleagues who have already mastered
the technic. I say "suitable cases."

.O REAT BRITAIN protest thte bomb-

British Red Cross unit in Ethiopia,
with tha loss of 19 Uvea.
The British ambassador In Rome Is

to Investigate tha affair at one and
ea that It DOESN'T OCCUR AGAIN.
1HAT will come oMtt
TT Well, you never can tell. The
government of the United States pro
tested the sinking, by German sub
marines, of the liner Lusltanla, with
resulting loss of American lives, and
the protest led to WAR WITH GER
MANY.
When these affairs start, you never
can tell bow they will end.
IN JAPAN, something interesting and
tremendously Important to the fu
ture of the world la under way.
Just what It Is, only a few people
In this country really know, but ap
parently .the army and the govern
ment are at odds aa to the future
policy of the nation, the army want
ing expansion by conquest and the
government being much more mod
erate and liberal In lta Idea.
It la not yet clear which side has
won In the recent clashes, but mod
erate Americans hope the government
has won. If Japan embarks upon a
determined policy of conquest, no
one can say at the present moment
what the consequences TO US will
be.
IN THIS country, the civil govern
ment Is the unquestioned BOSS of
the army. It Is plain from recent
dispatches that this Isn't true In
Japan, where the army, on the day
this Is wrlten, vetoed the appoint
ment of a minister it didn't like.
WHEN we see what la going on In
Japan, Including the recent
army-lnsplred murders, we are In
clined to be thankful that we live In
peaceful America.
But, before we give thanks too fer
vently, let's read this dispatch from
Alameda, Cal., located between the
educational centers of Berkeley, on
one aide, and Palo Alto, on the other:
"Armed factions maneuvered for
control of Alameda's city government
tonight, while thousands of high
school and elementary student con
tinued a boisterous class room strike."
That doesn't sound very peaceful,
doea it?
THE trouble arose over dismissal of
the superintendent of Alameda's
city schools, It being alleged by ob
Jectora that too much politics was
the cause of the dismissal.
There have been school rows In this
country ever since there were schools,
and probably will be aa long as there
are schools, but when they result In
ARMED factions parading the streets
and maneuvering for control of gov
ernment, they are going much too far.
(Continued from Page One.)
In maintaining successfully for the
past 18 year that sanctions lead to
war, not peace.
The stock market went up because
of European war threat last year.
It went down because of similar ru
mors this year. And on both occa
sions, no one of authority expected
a war.
The answer to this la the answer
to Wall Street. 8tocka follow the
new only when they desire to. If
they want to go in the opposite
direction, they do o.
The correct explanation for the
recent drop was not the war. but
the fart that prices were too high.
Buying eased off. Wary customers
were awaiting a reaction before
making Investment.
If the market had not fallen be
cause of war rumors, it would have
fallen because President Roosevelt
said something or other that day.
