They re Seeing Things Again
WORRY is bad under any circumstances. But under certain
conditions it is difficult to avoid. When such conditions
do not exist, then to persist in worrying is inexcusable. It
comes under the heading of gratuitous and needless self torture.
It denotes a serious infirmity of the will.
WE have in mind some of our good Republican friends who
am Ntill worrvintr over one-man covernment in this coun
try, the setting-up of a Roosevelt dictatorship. The outstand
ing issue in this country, we are told, is between the free
democracy of our forefathers, snd the totalitarian autocracy
of the New Deal.
In the heat of a political campaign such a neurosis might be
understandable. We all get more or less excited, before a battle
of ballots, and for several months, aren't entirely sane.
But there is no political campaign on now, and there won't
be a national referendum, until a year hence.
It seems to this column such exaggerated worries and alarms
could be dispensed with, at least until the primary campaign
rolls around,
m 9 t 4
AND meanwhile we would suggest that those still suffering
from nn1itir.nl aholl onotlr stUl rlicnnsol ooni nirrht In
look under the bed, read up on the definition of totalitarian
government, and by looking over the situation in Russia, Ger
many and Italy, find out just what one-man government, or
dictatorship, means.
They would find we think it means what it says, the dic
tatorship of ONE man. No free press Jo criticize him ; no free
speech to check him; no parliament or congress, to control him;
and no free independent elections, to determine the will of the
people. To all intents and purposes a revival of the divine
right of kings and absolute power of the crown.
a a a
KJOW what have wo in this country, have always had, and
barring a war from without, or a revolution from within,
always promise to have!
We have not only a free press, but a press numerically
spenking 75 against the administration.
Wc have free speech to such an extent, that in any club
smoking room, one can hear remarks regarding the President
of the United States, which are not fit for publication, and in
any dictatorship, would come under the heading of blasphemy
and treason, leading promptly to the firing squad.
We have two houses of congress, overwhelmingly Demo
cratic, as far as party affiliations are concerned ; and yet in
such a state of revolt, thst only
pet measures of the adminislration was not only defeated, but
the committee report which led to that defeat, has been gen
erally accepted, as the most severe indictment, of a President
of the United States, 'since the impeachment proceedings against
President Johnson.
And finally in less than a year
referendum, in which every citizen of this country will be free
to go to the polling booth, and there mark a secret ballot, for
or against the administration, as he or she may desire, with
no one even SUGGESTING there will be any way in which
that vote may be controlled, or if there were, the slightest
attempt to do so. .
9 9
A ND yet we are told, apparently in all seriousness, that the
supreme issue in this country today is between, the free
democracy of our forefathers, and such a totalitarian authority,
as exists in Europe!
a a a a
NOW, in all fairness, isn't such talk a trifle too absurd, for

If they wish to oppose the
federal government and return to the doctrine of states rights,
so vital an issue 75 years ago, that is their privilege. In our
opinion the centralization of power, at Washington is not only
inevitable, but under modern conditions, desirable; but we admit
there is room for difference of opinion on that particular
matter.
But to oppose centralization,
when he seeks larger powers his
over the Supreme Court for example is ONE thing; to solemnly
maintain, that the only alternative to defeat for the administra
tion and the New Deal, is the destruction of our democracy
and the establishment of a Hitler
is iiuite ANOTHER.
There are enough real troubles in the world today, foreign
and domestic not to waste time
troubles which are wholly the
imagination.

T171IEN this country ia even REMOTELY threatened by the
losa of a free presaj the abridgement of free speech; the
closing of an independent congress, and finally and most im
portant of all, the end of the secret and independent ballot,
and a popular referendum as a direct check on the government
in power EVERY TWO YEARS, then will be ample time to
indulge in such "horrendous fearg and alarms" as are now dis
turbing the slumbers of certain of our contemporaries.
Until then, let's hold our verbal fire until we sec the whites
of their eyes, and try to preserve
sense of humor I

NIGHT DRIVING
Formerly thre vitamins wr roe
ognlzed and designated A. B and C.
Then vitamin B waa found to repre
sent mora than
one factor, and
the two princi
pal factors In It
were distinguish
ed aa B-l and
B-3 or, still later,
B and O. And
soon afterward
vitamin A was
found to consist
of mora than one
factor, and tha
two prln c 1 p a 1
factors In it were
distinguished as
vitamin A and vitamin D.
Richest source of A and D la the
liver oil of various fish, such sa cod,
halibut, shark, and in the body oils
of some fish such aa salmon (fresh
or canned). Vitamin A and vitamin
D and their effects were confused
In all the earlier experimental and
scientific Investigations and are still
confused so badly that It la difficult
to decide how much weight we can
give to observations made by research
workers. For example. If you supple
ment a diet with a dally ration of
some fish liver oil or with some
natural source of vitamin D such as
cream, butter, egg yolk, you are get
ting the effects of vitamin A also,
for these two vitamins occur together
In all of these sources. But numer
ous foods are known to be good
sources of vitamin A yet contain
little of any vitamin D. For Instance
these Items are the richest natural
food sources of vitamin A:
Spinach (raw or canned)
Carrots
Escarole (chicory greens) '
Cheese (American. Parmesan,
cream)
Romatne lettuce, green leaves of
head lettuce
Liver
Tomato (raw or canned)
Peas (raw or canned)
Prunes
Milk, dried milk, canned milk, con
densed milk, evaporated milk
String beans
Bananas
Egg Yolk
Butter
So little actual evidence of the
Importance of vitamin A In human
nutrition is available (free from the
question of the effect of vitamin D)
that I am skeptical of the existence
of vitamin A. I believe vitamin D Is

labor was split a mile and the
"splits" between the president and
Mr. Berry's erstwhile colleague, Mr.

his task and la now reaching for the

Major Berry started st the bottom

The rumor thst Chslrman K'nnedy
of the maritime commission Ir going
to step out of his present Job and
take over Secretary Morgenthau s still
persists on Wall street. Wall street
wouldn't mind the change.
Mr. Kennedy has denied the alle
gation and likewise that ne was go
ing to quit his present post by De
cember 1.
He planned to step out and back
into private life on the first of the
year. There Is no Indication that he
has changed his plans at this writ

scrap over hla forthcoming report on
the Amerlcsn merchant marine gets

The official price Index Just fig
ures to most people Is turning out
to be the silver lining to the farmer's
cloud of declining commodity prices.
The things the farmer has t" buy
are going down. too.
Secretary Wallace's report of these
costs shows that they are continuing
to go down. In mid-October, they
stood at 133 per cent of the pre-war
level.
The farm-price Index, now at the
lowest point since June, 193fl. stands
st 113 per c"nt of pre-wsr level.
Dr. Townscnd probably hasn't heard
about It yet, but the government Is
going to max? an attempt to boost

An amendment has been drawn up
by the soclsl security board, which It
hopes congress will pass the basic rste
