Pee AUU ZTUUe want id The Three Horsemen r)Q bad, too bad! ' - ' . If this civilized world were only CIVILIZED, the forces that today threaten to destroy it, could be themselves destroyed. For civilization means to be "reclaimed from the rudeness of savage life, to be wise, to be advanced in the arts and learn ing." There are three outstanding nations in the world today which are not civilized in this sense. They have not been "reclaimed from the rudeness of savage life," they are not "wise." They are advanced in the arts and learning or have been, but those who represent such advancement, have ,no voice in determining the policies of their countries, they are mute and powerless. ' Both the domestic and foreign policies are determined by those who are essentially savages, in their ideology and convictions. THESE three nations are Germany, Italy and Japan. They are the three countries that threaten war, war in Europe and war in the Far East and therefore threaten the destruction of civilization, and their own destruction, as civilized states, with it ' If they were truly "advanced in learning" they could see this. If they were truly "wise," they would act upon it. But they are neither. Superficially they are civilized, but at heart, they are, as national entities, as truly barbarous, as the un clothed aboriginies of Patagonia. IF only their fates were involved, one might more easily be come reconciled to such a situation. There would be a certain rough moral justice in such an outcome. But unfor tunately that can't be done. Whether we like it or don't. this world is a unit, an organic whole. Three socalled civilized states, can't return to the jungle, without dragging most of the world with them. f TOO bad, too bad. The situation appears so completely mad, and the remedy so simple. All the world needs is CIVILIZATION, in. spirit as well as in name. That's all. ' ' But look at the war in China today, and the war in Spain ! No law but the law of the tooth and the claw; no human right, that might hasn't destroyed. And so these three horsemen, are dashing hell bent, for the abyss, dragging the rest of the world with them. And there appears to be no power on the earth or above it, that can pre vent the inevitable which is the destruction of what for many centuries we have known as civilization. It Could Be Done, -But- SO there is no civilized way out of the mess. For as Emerson Hiiirl the first vital uteri in civilization is. "the change from war, hunting, and pasturage to agriculture." In other words to change from destruction to production ; from punitive pursuit to pastoral ones. We can deplore war, preach agaiust it,' outlaw it . . . BUT in a world gone mad, in its worship of force, as the determining factor, in human affairs; such activity comes under the heading of "talky-talk" foolish and futile moralizing.. One is thus forced to return to the pagan doctrine of Napoleon.: .".God is on the side of the strongest battalions." .... WELL why not return to that t Why not be realistio about itt If the analysis above is generally 'correct, and the destruction of the world is threatened by . the elements that recognize no power but the power of force,, why not get busy in the direotion of challenging that force, by a superior force! IT COULD be done I The United States and Great Britain, for example, could join with France, the South American republics, and the Scandi navian countries, in a League of Peace, backed up by the great est economic, financial and military force, the world has ever seen. This coalition, could deliver an ultimatum to the "three horsemen" something along these lines: We are aialnet wmr. And in tern sotta. that va wUl oppoM by (ore, on land, on aaa and In tba air: any nation that threatana war. On tha othar band we tacognlza thara ara oarteln Injuatlota in the world. There ara nations that nead room for legitimate development and aipanalon. In the Intareat of maintaining peaoa, wa ahall aat up an International court which will aaa that thews lnjmtloe. ara corrected, aa far aa It la humanly poaalbla to do ao and needed territorial adjuatmenu ara made. Tba decraea of thla court, will be. backed by tha aama force, that will oppoea war." fNUTXOTICt V Well no more quixotic than the League of Nations. In fact it would be the essential idea of the league, only with force to back up its decrees, ADDED. And if such a leasna had been in operation two years ago, n-milH Mussolini ever hiive conouered Ethiopia t Would Japan have launched upon its Brmed invasion of China t Would Ger many and Italy, dared to have engaged in what is nothing less than an effort to "crush Spain, and establish a Fascist base of operations there t We think not, a e a YES, this would be a way out, a certain way out. And U such a league were actually in existence, we doubt very much, if a gun would ever be fired. For nations like individuals that fear oulv force, are inclined to quit, cold, when a force obviously greater than their own, appears. BUT again being realistic, there is about as much chance of ,.; hoino taken, aa t.hnra la nf Brother Stalin, beiug elected an honorary member of the Now York Stock Exchange.

DONT LET THE ACID OBSESSION GET YOU DOWN 1 in I m Acidosis la a state of the body, that Is, the blood and tissues and, cells, which sometimes occurs In the course of one or another disease. It should be clearly under-1 stood that acid-; oets la a result, a feature, and not a cause of the 111 neaa or disease. Acidosis la never due to acids nat urally present In foods, nor Is It ever produced by changes whlcb mfC or protein food un- gestlve tract. The common notion that certain foods make the stomach acid or too acid and also make tha system, the blood and tissues acid, la wrong. To the best of my Judgment there la no sound basis for the Idea, still cherished by some of the elderly medical brethren who devote their leisure time to writing medical es says, that foods containing nitrogen ous material, protein, especially pur ines, la likely to leave an excess uric acid In blood or tissues indeed there Is no convincing evidence that uric acid Is a factor of any disease. The less one knows about human physiology the more readily one be lieves silly teachings about the Im portance of choosing the right com binations of food. The truth la that any combination or mixture of foods that appeals to one's state Is quite sa digestible, wholesome and health ful as either or any of the Items of which the mixture la composed. A question that seems to worry many gullible folk nowadays Is how can one be sure to get all of the oh, pick any number from six to thirty eight element essential for health-. I understand there are several ele ments necessary for health, but when you get beyond the digits I give up. But why worry about such academic matters? Any one whose diet In cludes a fair amount of milk, cream. butter, cheese, eggs, fresh vegetables, fresh greens, fresh fruits will be cer tain to get all the elements, all the minerals, and nearly all the vitamins he needs. If the dairy products and fresh vegetables are freely used as staples of the everyday diet, there will be no leck-of minerals. As ex plained earlier," the Important thing la to see to It that you get an ade quate dairy ration of vitamin D to Insure utilization of the mineral ele ments. Hyperacidity of Stomach One with gastric syperacldlty, acid stomach, byper-chlorydrla, sour stom ach, acid dyspepsia, hunger pain, or a suspicion of peptic, gastric or duo denal ulcer should avoid seasoning things with salt or eating very salty things. He should avoid catsup, chill sauce, horseradish, mustard, apices, vinegar, pickles. He should not eat grapefruit, lemons, oranges or toma toes. He should not eat concentrated sweets, cakes, candy. He should avoid meat soups and gravies. He should eat six meals a day Instead of three or four. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Carrying Seferrlng to the Inquiry of the girl who has to carry heavy bags from door to door. My experience has taught that resting the elbow on the hip greatly reduced strain. Long ago a southern woman told me the old slave mammy carried the baby astride the hip and called this "toting. (O. K.) Answer Thank you. Ideal way la to carry the burden either balanced on the head or knapsack fashion. Anoth er meaning of "toting" Is the long established custom permitting the cook to carry food home to her fam ily, ae one of the emoluments of her Job. Pilonidal Cyst Husband has what doctor calls a polonloal cyst near end of spine. Do you consider operation necessary to remove this? (Mrs. H. A. C.) Answer that la a cyst or bladdery tumor having a growth of hair on It. Yea, I think the wisest and safest plan would be to have tt removed, perhaps under local anaesthesia with out detention from business. Thirty per cent Off A year ago I sent for your booklet "Design for Dwindling" (ten cents coin and three-cent-stamped envelope bearing address). It was the luckiest thing I ever did. I dwindled from 330 to 165 pounds, and look and feel so much better. But the greatest thrill I get out of It la to go into a store and ask to be shown size 38 dresses Instead of size 501 (Mrs. M.V.D.) Answer And your letter la thrill enough for me.

Several New York beauty parlors. especially In the Broadway environs, are volcanoes of salacious gossip. And the source of much vicious scan dal that so often assails those classed as celebrities. In these salons opera tors are selected aa much for volu bility in "dishing the dirt" as for their cosmetic skill.

The most eager of the buzzards for this carrion are women of means who have nothing to do Idle hands. busy tongues. Dorothy Thompson la reputedly now the highest paid active news paperwoman, receiving $35,000 a year for her column and other editorial contributions. In addition to thla she makes considerable writing magazine articles and lecturing around the country. She la at the moment In the greatest demand of any writing lady of her time. Probably the most energetic scrib bler but least paid for his output Is Cornelius Vanderbllt, Jr. While he was recently taken on the Liberty staff, most ot his work baa been furn ished free to Rob Wagner's Script In Beverley. Vanderbllt haa spent large sums on self assignments without portfolio, bop-sklpplng about the world, climaxing It recently by ap pearing at the coronation In a de luxe trailer. Clarence Budlngton Holland's son, Horace, has become one ot the prime favorites among the young folk In the upper social brackets. A nandsome fellow, he Is an Intimate of Alfred G. Vanderbllt and frequently squires the letter's half sister, Gloria Baker, to the Long Island affairs. The late Pin ley Peter Dunne and Arthur Somers Roche were, outside of Kelland. among the few writers who showed any enthusiasm for the social creme de la creme. Roche, who divided his time between Palm Beach and Sands Point, L. I., aeemed to enjoy himself among the swells but I think large ly with tongue In cheek plus a chance to pick up much color for the glam orous type of novels he wrote.

Tort Peck dam waa flood control and Irrigation chiefly affecting Missouri and not Montana. But It is reported that the senator haa heard plenty lately The energetic Mr. O'Connell made a swing around the circle boosting the court bill and doubtless mentioning his Port Peck power proposition. Anyhow, Mr. Wheeler detected a lot of resounding echoes. He made a trip through Montana. Two days af ter returning to Washington he In troduced a Port Peck power bill In the senate. Not such an all-embracing and TVA-lsh proposition as the house measure. Its purpose la cau tiously described as "Improving nav igation on the Missouri river and for other purposes incidental thereto" (a suitable power plant). More power to the constttutents. If Mr. O'Connell la re-elected In 1936 It la understood he will an nounce his willingness to replace Sen ator Wheeler In 1940.
