Winter, sitting en banc, heard argu-mr-nis today on whether a discharged lumber worker could collect from the atite unemployment compensa tion romminaion, due to n AFL-CIO The Man for the Place WE seldom agree with Bernarr McFaddcn'i editorials in Liberty. But now and then old "Bodylove" gets a good idea, and fails to bury it completely, in platitudes and business-slogan gibberish. The current offering entitled "The Poor Old Republican Party I" is a good example. BM. is a staunch Republican and wants the Grand Old Party to win but he believes there is little chance as long as John D. M. Hamilton remains the party chairman and leader. In fact he considers John D. M. the party's greatest liability, and wants him kicked out, with someone like his dignified predecessor, Henry P. Fletcher put in his place. WE can't agree with that last suggestion. Another Henry P. Fletcher would be worse than retaining John. But this column DOES agree that a new hand at the party helm, is imperative, a hand that can revive party confidence and above all supply aggressive and enlightened leadership. ..... MORE than that, we know just the man. None other than Congressman Bruce Barton of New Tork, a NATURAL for the job, nothing less! For such a job Barton has EVERYTHING. Ho is vigorous, magnetic, self-confident; a past-master of publicity and promo tion work; a fluent talker; a convincing writer, and above all, he is SMART I For Barton believes the ONLY hope of Republican success, is to accept the ESSENTIAL principles of Roosevelt's Now Deal, instead of continuing to oppose them, and promise the people of the country to, Iron out their defects and from a sound business, common sense standpoint MAKE THEM WORK I "The Democrats," says Barton in effect, "are strong on new ideas and weak on carrying them out. The Republicans are weak on new ideas but strong on carrying them out. Obviously from the standpoint of the welfare of this couptry, it is now time to retire the party that has presented the new ideas, but can't carry them out with the purty that CAN." Put Bruce Barton in John D. M.'s place, give him a free hand, on his own terms, and two years hence the Republican party will have an excellent chance. Retain John D. M. and the snphomnric political obscuran tism he represents, and unless conditions radically change, it will be Landon and Knox all over again. Time Is With Peace THE one great ally for peace in Europe, and about the nnlv nnp in time. The longer war is delayed, being none. It isn't a matter of months. can get through September without an outbreak of hostilities (excluding the war in Spain of course) there is every likelihood, there will be no general war until 1939 at least. And perhaps not then. For it is literally true, the longer peace endures, he stronger she becomes. HITLER'S policy is now fairly plain. It is still enmeshed in his fanatical, neurotic psychology, of course, but this much seems clear: Der Fuehrer has become convinced by his army advisers, that Germany can't win a long war, and unless England agrees to stay out, there can't be a short one. And England won't stay out. In fact while tho old lion has been sleeping for a long time, a few weeks ago he opened his eyes, lumbered to his haunches, and for a week at least, the old boy's tail has been twitching, believe it or not. And that is what Hitler doesn't like. He could handle France and even stave off Russia, but with the British navy again bottling Germany up, not a chancel SO what! Well, as wo sec it, 'unless Der Fuehrer suffers a cataleptic fit, and that figuratively speaking is always possible, ho will a hand on the idea of starting tronlilo in Europe at the present time, and return to his Plan No. 1. Which was, to threaten war but never wage it, to work day and night for the extension of German control through Czechoslovakia and Hungary, even to the oil fields of Rumania, but to get his way as he did in the Rhinelnud and in Austria, withont fighting, not as a result of it. In other words to go to the very brink of war, hut never into it. To secure meanwhile all that can be secured without it. A pretty shrewd plan, the only fly in the ointment is this, what if his, or someone else's FOOT slips 1 EXAMINER FOR NUB CE F' WASHINGTON. Sept. 7.

FANATIC An amateur prospective mother spent a long week-end In hospital the right place to be It the home lacks the convenience having three teeth extracted. The teeth were con demned , by her doctor be came they were so-called "dead teeth" that Is, pul pleas. The pulps had been removed from the teeth at one time or another In the past few years by her dentor. The dentor and doc tor agreed that there waa no Indica tion of Infection In or about the roots of the teeth, but they were unanimous In the belief that "dead" teeth are a menace alwaya and the jiooner they are extracted the better. The doctor went a bit further than that, averring that even though there were no sign of Infection, never theless there Is constant poisoning of the patient's system (and In this Instance of course poisoning of the developing fetus too) from "dead" teeth. Without engaging in the contro versy between the two schools of thought In dentistry and medicine In reference to the conservation or the removal of pulpless teeth, I mere ly say that I'd never permit a pulp less tooth to be removed from my Jaw under any circumstances unless I had good reason to believe the tooth Infected beyond reasonabl hope of cure by treatments by my dentor. A tooth from which the pulp or "nerve" has been removed Is de prived of Its normal supply of nutri tion, material for growth, building or repair, for that comes chiefly through the blood supply, and the "pulp" is made up largely of blood vessels and capillary spaces or chan nels through which blood seeps. But even after destruction or re moval of the pulp the tooth struc ture may still receive some nourish ment through Its roots from the soft tissues Immediately surrounding. Up on this physiological observation conservative dentists base their opin ion that pulpless teeth should be left undisturbed as long aa they serve a useful function. It Is probably true that a pulp less tooth Is rather more likely to become Infected than a sound tooth Is.

Answer Garlic, onions, chives, leek, shallot, or other species of Allium has no more Influence on blood pressure, high, low or normal, i than potato or cabbage has. If blood pressure Is high It Is futile to try to be your own doctor. Might as well try to doctor yourself for high fever or rapid breathing.

He thinks that the bank examiners should relax their rules on loan liquidity when business Is poor, thus stimulating more lending, and only tighten the rules when business is good, thus moderating the boom. He also claims that there has been dup lication of the bank examining func tion, and that to have three agencies all empowered to examine banks Is foolish and unhealthy. Actually there hasn't been real duplication. The reserve board, the F.D.I. c. and the comptroller of the currency's office each have their own classes of banks to deal with. But until the compromise of last spring, there undoubtedly has been diver gence of policy, end very likely there will be again. On the face of It, aside from the economic theory involved. Eccles' proposed reform looks like a sensible one. The reserve board people are con fident that their champion, who looks like Torquemada and talks like a minor prophet, will win In the end. The story of t he reserve board Is that before the com prom tse last spring, the president promised Ecolos whatever new powers he wanted, and that Eccles only failed to call the promise because he wished to spare the president trouble at a trying time. All the same, if he succeeds. Eccles will hardly get his triumph at a cheap price. For all his meeching f ii Bargain Days Close Monday Sept. 12th manner.
