Wanted Less Heat, More Light
IT'S all very confusing.
Governor Landon say one thing and Colonel Knoi, his
running mate, says something else. Yet, presumably, they both
speak for the same party.
In about six weeks the campaign will end. In the interest
of party harmony and political clarity, wouldn't it be well for
the Republican candidates to go into a huddle and decide what
their party stands for, and what it doesn't stand for, before it
is too late!
WHEN the Supreme Court knocked out the A.A.A., for ex
ample, Governor Landon publicly expressed his disap
pointment. He stated the A.A.A. had been beneficial to the
farmers of Kansas, that his state had gladly cooperated with
the federal administration, in the direction of farm assistance
mid relief, and he insisted the Bepublican platform endorse
cash benefits to agriculture, and aid in the stabilization of the
farm markets.
But in Oregon only the other day, Colonel Knox not only re
joiced over the invalidation of the A.A.A., but thanked God
for the Supreme Court, in knocking that and other New Deal
panaceas out. He maintained the Supreme Court had saved
America from going the way of Moscow, and loosed the vials
of his wrath and sarcasm against the A.A.A., the New Deal and
all its works. This was quite in harmony with his previous dec
larations that this country would have been better off, if since
the retirement of President Hoover, it had had no government
at all that thanks to Roosevelt and the New Deal, there is
TODAT, not a savings account or an insurance policy, that is
safe I
..,
T'HE vociferous and ebullient Colonel, does not seem to real-
ize that if he is right his own team mate (and presumably
the leader and spokesman of his own party), is wrong.
Not only before, but after his nomination. Governor Lan
don, has shown a decided sympathy with most of the purposes
and aims of the New Deal. As has been pointed out his main
argument has been, with the exception of that "fighting
speech" in Maine to retain the good features of the New Deal
and reject the poor ones though he has never been explicit as
to which was which. "Time" has stated his chief plea has been
to offer a New Deal at cut rates. .
But here is his team mate crying, throw the entire New Deal
overboard from A to Izzard, scrap the communistic hodge
podge, and go back to the good old days, as advocated by. his
former boss and mentor, William Randolph Hearst.
WHAT are the voters to think, particularly those who have
not yet made up their minds how they are going to vote!
Does Governor Landon represent the Republican party or does
Colonel Knox, obviously they both can't, if one is right, the
other must bo wrong,
We repeat tboy should get busy and decide which is which
and what is what, or else frankly admit, the Republican party
has no program, is merely engaged in the task of playing both
ends against the middle, for the sake of votes, and what their
party really stands for, will have to be decided after the elec
tion, instead of bbfore.
We maintain this would be a strange procedure for a great
national party to pursue, not take the voters into its confidence,
as to just what that party favors and what it doesn't, what if
given control of the government, it will do, and what it won't.
TPIIE Republican board of strategy may not think this im-
portant, but we are quite sure the people of the country
do.
In the opinion of this newspaper a vast majority of the vot
ers have already decided how they are going to vote, and noth
ing short of a political earthquake will change them. But the
balance of power, as usual will bo held by those, who don't care
much about parties but care a great deal about the welfare of
their country. They will decide the result of this election as
they have decided most close elections. And one thing the in
dependent voter won't do. He won't vote, for a pig in a poke.
When Messrs. Landon and Knox hold a conference to find
out what what they believe and what they don't, John Hamilton
should ho called in also.
For judging by John's speech in Baltimore yesterday he
doesn't believe that TODAY, as the Colonel explicitly stated,
there isn't a savings account or a life insurance policy in the
country that is safe.
Said John :
A sreit tmgt of buslnesa recovery haa started 1b the trnitNl
Statea. Through ah avenue of American enterprise and en
deavor there haa been vast and sensational Improvement."
That doesn't sound as tho the Republican chairman agreed
with the Colonel that if there had been no government at. all
since Hoover, the country would have better off and that the
chief financial institutions of the country are hovering on the
brink of bankruptcy. ,
Naturally John doesn't give any credit to ('resident Roose
velt, In fact quite the reverse. It has all bren due to Governor
I.iiih1i:i,
We quote :
"I do not think It la by coincident that thla recovery began
at exactly the aarne time that the character and principle, of
Clovernor Landon became known and appreciated. Governor
I,nrton deserves credit for creatine; In the country a new confl
dence." Confidence of what? Confidence that Landon if elected, will
scrap the New Deal, or revamp and salvage it ; follow Republi
can principles as he sees them or as they are seen by his team
mulct
As the quotations on WhII .Street, at last, report, were two
to one against the election of Landon, this IS a remarkable ex
ample of ttltnt the mere NAMING of the Kansas governor as
the G. 0. 1' candidate, has done to stimulate and extend busi
ness confidence, in the brief space of three months!

ARSENIC POISONING FROM CONTAMINATED FOOD

rule. Thla year

Myself particu
larly, being es
pecially fond of
new potatoes,
seems to suffer
most. Diarrhea, In one luatance fol
lowed by vomiting and painful at
tacks of Indigestion (belching much
gas), leaving the lower abdomen sore
and bruised and a general feeling of
lassitude. The children have frequent
pains and cramps in the stomach,
too. We have had an exceptionally
dry season, and potatoes' for the last
few years have been attacked by po
tato bugs. To keep the bugs under
control we dose the potatoes with
Paris green, but one dose never kills.
In fact I've come to the conclusion
that Paris green (acetoarsenlte of
copper) doesn't kill them at all, for
we have to keep on dosing them to
keep them under. Our potato patch
hag had this treatment now for four
years. Thla year, having had no rain,
we noticed when digging up the
spuds that they are all attached to
the main stem, and there are few
fibrous roots on which you generally
find the potatoes. I wonder if we are
absorbing enough of the bug poison
In the potatoes to account for our
bellyache? . , . (S. B. M.)
It Is not unlikely that tho corre
spondent's surmise may be correct,
though I should not be too sure the
arsenic Is absorbed by eating the po
tatoes. It may be Inhaled while ap
plying Paris green.
There Is one way to determine
whether members of the household
have arsenic poisoning. Chemical
analysis of the urine would show
whether more than the normal max
imum of arsenic Is excreted through
the kidneys a minute quantity Is
normally excreted. If such a chemi
cal analysis, made after the patient
haa received an intravenous Injec
tion of about IS gratna of sodium
thlosulphate (hyposulphite) shows a
markedly increased excretion of
arsenic, that would establish the
diagnosis of chronic or subacute ar
senic poisoning.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Absorption
I believe you claim nothing is ab
sorbed through the skin. If that is
so, how do you explain perspiration?
. . . (M. B.)
Answer Sweat Is excreted, not ab
sorbed. Of course the sweat glands
excrete salt and water, and the se
baceous glands excrete sebum (skin
oil). But no one haa yet succeeded
in reusing the direction- In which
Bubstances pass through the skin.
What Do you Fear?
I know you say there Is no 'such
thing as weak nerves btit it seems
I live in constant dread of I don't
know what, only that's the way I feel,
and I thought this waa nervousness
or nervous weakness. . . , (Mrs. L.
A. L.)
Answer You never get anywhere
dismissing your trouble as "nerves."
Send ten cents coin and stamped en
velope bearing your address, for book
let "Chronic Nervous Imposition"
(Oreen Book). First reading may
mako you mad. If so, lay It aside for
a week or two. After you've calmed
down .read It again. Second reading
may make you think. Get a practi
tioner or nervous Imposition think
ing and If the gink is a Class A neu
rotic, some good may come of It. Class
B neurotics are hard boiled and will
respond to nothing short of Institu
tional Incarceration.
Murmur
If a diastolic murmur Is ignored
can It become serious or dangerous?
If so. how rapidly? ... (A. J. P.)
Answer A murmur Is any varia
tion from the normal sounds pro
duced by the beating of the heart.
It does not necessarily signify any
thing wrong with tho heart. Better
have the physician's opinion about it.

He Is for Lemke
To the Editor:
As there la a misunderstanding as
to what attitude Wm. Lemke has
taken In reference to the Townsend
plan he made the following state
ment at the Townsend convention
at Cleveland;
"The Townsend organization has
challenged the attention of the whole
world. I am proud to come here to
publicly testify to the high character
and purpose of your great leader, Dr.
Townsend -and your great organiza
tion.
"I stand four-square with him (Dr.
Townsend) in the great fight that
he is making on behalf of our citi
zens and our country. I am one hun
dred per cent for an old age revolv
ing pension.
"As president, I will sign any bill
that congress enact which will give
an honest and fair compensation to
old people which have helped to cre
ate the wealth of the nation,"
Dr. Townsend says: "I would be a
hypocrite If I did not support and
vote for Wm. Lemke for president.'
What applies to Dr. Townsend ap
plies to every other cltzen who sub
scribes to the principles of tha Town-
send plan.
The great Lemke meeting In Chi
cago Is evidence that there are three
strong candidates In the field for
president of the United States and
one of these la Wm, Lemke, a Town
sendlte. William Lemke, aa a congressman,
pledged himself to Work for the
Townsend plan and as a congress
man, with 60 others, voted for the

The answer Is they do not. Sub

When the rebels entered a large city
In the south, they picked out the
American consul to notify him first
to get foreigners out. No other foreign
consul was thus singled out. Similar

Kane Incident were accepted by of

Inflation bill) and the fact that Lan
don Is the nominee of thlr party.
uotn nave announced themselves
for the Republican candldato for
governor, but have uttered nary a
sound about " the more Important
matter.
Those who have encountered Fra
zier tn deep though here lately have
an idea he may resolve himself In fa
vor of his friendship for Lemke. Nye,
who 1 not as close to Lemke, Is re
ported to be In favor only of con
tinuing indefinitely the munitions
lecture tour upon which he has been
embarked since the closing of con
gress. Politics Is certainly mixed up these
day.
One of the original champions of
the Matanuska resettlement experi
ment in Alaska has returned from a
visit with a somewhat less enthusias
tic slsnt on the way It la working out.
The original plan was to give each
settler forty acres, with cattle, horses,
etc., at a cost of 3.000. The 13,000
haa been used up and each settler has
but ten acres. It will cost about 12,-
000 per settler to go through with the
original program.
The fundamental trouble Is they
hae no market for their products.
However, they can probably keep
themselves going under their present
arrangement.
