Rockefeller or some other rich man : Establish a fund to provide for well trained speakers, who will trail the office seekers, and The great trouble with the practically all speeches are made, either by those who want to secure some political office, or porters, who expect to be politically rewarded, in the events of political success. In other words, all public speeches, which means practically all verbal education, during the campaign, are delivered by those who have an axe to grind, a selfish interest to serve. , As a result the table thumpers, from high to low, have no interest in telling the people the truth, but are only concerned with telling them what they believe will bring them votes. Which is bad for the voters, bad for the eountry; bad for everything else. A group of follow-up orators, who had no interest in any political party, were not seeking office them selves, but were only concerned with the facts, the truth concerning both candidates and measures, would certainly render a tremendously useful But under conditions as they afford the time, and few who have the inclination, John D. Rockefeller or gome other public spirited multi millionaire could change all this, by merely issuing the proper instructions and putting up the money with no strings attached. But that's just the trouble, could anyone ever convince the people there were no strings attached 1 Read the Bill First THE so-called "anti-picketing ia o VAfv imnnr-rnnr. m AAR11 people' to start studying it. The pros and cons have already unlimbered their oratorical batteries, and probably before the campaign ends, the din will be terrific. Those in favor of the bill, are maintaining it is designed solely to protect the people of this state, especially the farmers, from labor goons and racketeers. Those opposed, principally . representatives of organized labor, are declaring, the farmers of the state had nothing to do with the inception of the measure, but .are used as a smoke screen, to hide a vicious and cowardly attempt of Big Business to completely destroy labor unions in this state. ' . Now if we had a few speakers as above indicated, who bad no axe lo grind, but could travel about the state, analyzing the bill and telling the people the unvarnished truth, what a valuable service would be performed, but until some pluto cratio Don Quixote steps forward we haven't. So, as the next best thing, we advise 'air and sundry, to carefully read the measure as it appears in the Voters Pamphlet, and decide for themselves whether they regard its provisions as a good thing for the stato or the reverse. If they have any particular doubts about the exact meaning of this article or some other, let them consult someone, preferably their family lawyer, or other attorney, in whom they have confidence, as to the exact meaning of the snme. Later, on in the campaign this column will discuss the mea sure. Meanwhile our advice to everyone should be interested, is to take extreme statements on both sides with a grain of salt, and reserve final judgment until they have read the measure, and formed their own opinion of what it means and what it doesn't, -. Not the Law, but Spirit- WHILE on the subject of organized labor, one important fapt. uhnnM not. h fni'irotton : Experience not only in England, but in Sweden and else where, shows that in the effort are not so important as a spirit standing. Or to express the same truth little if any good, until the forces of labor and capital, BOTH see the essential truth, namely inherently antagonistic, but mutual, that the welfare of one is literally dependent upon the In other words, this country, exist industrially half labor and half capital, anymore thBn it could exist politically half slave and half free. Which is not to say it must be one thing or the other, but the two elements must be fused, spiritually, so to speak, INTO THE WHOLE, before any important improvement in" their re lations can be obtained.

This famous Italian political philosopher, was a deep student of human nature, and a strong partisan of the unmoral, ruthless technique of absolute dictatorship. "War" said he, "should be the only study of a prince (the state) who should consider peace only aa a breathing spell, which gives him leisure to contrive and furnishes ability to execute military plans."

The germ of wheat Is placed near one end of the Ker nel and consti tutes one - twen tieth of the fcer nel. Modern mill ing of white flour removes not only the bran or outer coat of the ker nsJ, but also the germ 1 removed These portions go Into the middl ings which are used for feeding animals, leaving the more purely starchy substance of the kernel, which constitutes 16 parts to one of germ In the kernel, The white flour produced by the modern milling process Ls a good food, of course. Over 78 per cent of It Is starch, and starch is as easily digestible and as nourishing as sugar. Over 10 per cent of It la protein, nitrogenous matter, as valuable in human nutrition as egg white, cheese or lean meat. Over 11 per cent of the refined white flour is water. A little more than 1 per cent of it ls fat. Yet refined white flour would not support life long If it constituted the only food available. The amounts of the three food materials neces sary for human nutrition are suf ficient in white flour, but other ele ments which are essential for the proper assimilation and utilization of these three food materals are not present In white flour at least not In sufficient amount or proportion to satisfy the demand of the human body. These - other elements which white flour lacks are principally vita min B complex, calcium, phosphorous and Iron. Referring to the removal of these nutritive essentials In the modern milling process, an authority (Wil liams and Spies. Vitamin Bl and Its Use in Medicine, Macmlllan) puts It thus: "Man commits a crime against nature when he eats the starch from the seed and throws away the mechanism necessary for the metabolism of that starch." It is now well established both experimentally and In everyday prac tice that vitamin B complex, that Is. vitamin Bl or thiamin, vitamin B3 or O or riboflavin, and the va rious other components naturally present In the B complex, and NOT the pure or synthetic Bl or thiamin alone, aids In the oxidation or utili zation of carbohydrate (starch and sugar) and Is especially useful In diabetes, for It enables the patient Man About Manhattan B GKORGE TUCKER By GEOHGE TUCKER NEW YORK Two of the newer Rialto productions are important be cause (a) they have the reviewer.) feuding, always a healthy sign, and (b) some new terminology has been added to cafe vocabulary. The first of these ls "Helz-a-Poppln'." a crazy madcap revue which starts out like a motion picture with a screen on the stage. After Mie title comes the modest statement that this Is a "Qreat. Colossal, frfcORGE TUCttft Magnificent Mar velous and Wonderful" production "It has romance.,, says a subtitle and then the wene flashes to an old action scene of Dempscy knocking out Plrpo. "It has action." shrills the voice on the screen, and the action then reveals a placid moo cow thoughtfully chewing her cud. Then President Roosevelt. Hitler. Mussolini and John L. Lewis are flash ed on the screen, making speeches. However, for their actual words have been substituted some exceedingly bawdy and hilarious remarks by a dubbed In voice. Hitler, for Instance, speaks on the worst East Side Jew ish dialect you ever heard, and the audience Is panicked. Then Musso ltnln comes on and his voice Is that of Brother Crawford from Amos and Andy. One critic thought it wss wonderful, and a couple thought It was the worst thing ever producer on Broadway. Now they (the critics) are Jibing each other in their dally tvsays. The second show listed In our trea tise on the dram today la "Kiss the Boys aoodby." which hss the most refreshing Idea a farce could have It is bsvd on the Hollywood warch for a character to play the role of Scarlett O'Hara In "Gone With the Wind." "Gone With the Wind" has hern thinly disguised as "Kiss the Bey Ooodhye" by Clare Boothe. Ms Boothe Is the author of lart ses.on's "The Women." The Scarlrtt O Harn of "Kiss the Boys Ooodby" is known here as Velvet O'Toole. daughter of a senator from the Deep South. 3ho arrives in Connecticut for a week end with a group of rich Yankev, and the fun begins. This southern belle, who Is the sum and essence of every southern belle ever errs tod in the minds of stickily sentimental novelist, fall into a "snlt" when they Insult and shock her by their rude manner. A "snlt." she reveals, is a fit, or rage. l-ater thev ak her if shell have a drink and she replies, "i n huve a short go." A Short Oo, it appears la a Jlagr of stratgbt corn. 1 V Brady, M P. BAT WHEAT GERM to get along with less insulin than would be necessary on the ordinary vitamin -poor diet. The two richest natural sources of vitamin B complex are wheat germ and a special strain of yeaat grown for the purpose (not ordinary yeast that has been used for brewing nor yeast suitable for fermentation-) Wheat germ meal does not keep long. In the course of a few weeks It ls likely to become rancid. Hence only sufficient to last for a week or two ahould be kept on hand. Any miller anywhere can catch out a pound or two If he cares to bother with It to accommodate a customer. A few mills now offer wheat germ In pound or two-pound packages for perhaps four bits by mall. Some of the larger drug stores supply wheat germ In similar packages, at about the same cost. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Power Which gland Is the most powerful, thyroid, orchle or pituitary? M. J. Answer I have no idea. I have a vague notion that the pituitary reg ulates the functions of the others. Malpractice Father, SO, has had rupture for several years. He asked about the Injection treatment at hospital where he was examined. The hos pital doctor told hlra that the in jection method ls Ineffective and hat operation ls the only cure. Mrs. R. S. Answer The doctor who told your father that ls either Incompetent or an untrustworthy man. The Injec tion treatment offers as good a chance of cure as radical operation does. Send a stamped envelope bear ing your address and I'll name a physician who Is skilled In the am bulant treatment. It Is the method I should select If I had a hernia. It Is Good to Eat Received "Wheat to Eat," procured some wheat from farmer friend, had it ground, and am enjoying Ol Doc Brady s recipes. It surely ls good to eat. It ls being used ' by some of my diabetic friends. They use less Insulin. L. C. Answer Monograph "Wheat to Eat" free on request if you inclose stamped envelope bearing your ad dress.

During a scene In which the pro ducer manifests more than a passing interest In her, she backs away from him and says. "Now let me get my ducks in a straight line." Then she wants to know whether his inten tions are honorable or not. For the purposes of this column the producer's Intentions are unim portant. It's the "sntt." the "short go" and the "Let me get my d- ?ks In a straight line" that count. After the opening everybody was having "snlts," and In the bars, to which the smarty-pants retired, the bar tenders gravely complied with re quests for "short goes" without even the lifting bf an eyebrow.

PHONE 1 Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS By FRANK JENKINS rIS dispatch comes from Hyde Park, the summer White House: "President Roosevelt waa rep resented tonight by close asso ciates as feeling that there ls a close analogy between the recent European crisis and American In dustrial problems; that there ls a t psrallel between saber-rattling to create an artificial crisis and gen eral ATTACKS ON THE ADMIN ISTRATION. "He said, according to hla as sociates, he believed that Indus try could digest with benefit the lesson learned by Europe In the past two weeks and, In the Inter est of harmonious relationship, cease -calling names.' ONE is reminded of the sweet old lady who was watching the militia company march down the street. "Shucks 1" she remarked disapprov ingly. "Everybody's out of step but my Henry." SHE wasn't vindictive, and she didn't mean to be unduly crit ical of the others. She Just knew her Henry couldn't be wrong, and was blissfully certain that the way to fix everything up was tor ALL OTHERS to conform with Henry. IP Industry In America would do exactly and obediently, without hesitation or discussion, whatever President Roosevelt tells It to do, there would be peace of a sort. There ls Industrial peace in Germany, because German industry does exact ly what Hitler tells It to do. But the peace might be more last ing and more productive of real pros perity If the President would do a little more co-operating and a little less telling. There has been name-calling on BOTH sides. THE president, for example, might say to Industry: 'My program ls thus and so. You are going to have to accept It. But It Is going to REMAIN thus and so, and yTJU can depend on that. When you have accepted It you can go ahead with confidence, knowing Just what to accept." Instead, he has had a NEW pro gram about every month, and as a result industry Is scared and Jittery and afraid to make a move, because it never knows what to look for next. If industry ls to make real progress, it Just HAS to be able to anticipate for at least a reasonable length of time the conditions under which It will operate. THE militia company could have got In step with Henry, to be sure, but if It wanted to be an effi cient and well-drilled company It would have to know that Henry would STAY IN STEP for at least a block.

Besides suggesting the probable character of the monopoly Inquiry, the discussion of an offer to Moore illustrates another fundamentally Important problem. There was a time, at the exciting start pt the new deal, when the gov ernment had only to crook. Its finger to get any talent It needed. Then a continuous stream of young men and old, from industry, the univer sities and the professions, poured Into Washington to play their parts in the fascinating experiment. But now, the new deal seems to have only two years to run. Even the young graduates of the great law schools have ceased to enter the government In such numbers, and mature ex perts like Hilton Moore have become all but unprocurable. The antl-monopol; Investigation Is now being really hampered by this scarcity of good volunteers. Being highly technical, It requires the best trained minds. The original plan was to get as many Investigators as pos sible from business and the profes sions, but It has been found neces- sarv to m to b nnl vr(H ilmiut. every time. For example, one of the I most Important posts, that of chief of the Insurance study, has Just been given to Professor Donald Davenport of the Harvard business school. And meanwhile the Job of counsel to the study Is still going begging, although It's probably the best spot for a law yer in the whole Investigative set up. Coming Collapses. The scarcity of men technically equipped for the big Inquiry merely dramatizes the vital need for some American equivalent of the British civil service. People who talk of "civil service" In this country are under a sorry misapprehension aa to the best meaning of the term. The British civil service la not a hierarchy of bureaucrats, qecrulted by succes sive examinations In pencil-sharpening, ahort-hand and government bookkeeeplng. It la a staff of lnde- I pendent, educated minds, recruited by examinations testing the whole training. Intended to weed out the men generally fit to handle large governmental problema. The volunteers of the new deal, whatever their other defects, tempor arily filled the gap left In the Amer ican government by the absence of a civil service like the British. For all their partisanship and their ax-grlnd-Ing, the new deal volunteers have done a remarkable technical Job, wielding the vast new powers of gov ernment without chaos, and spending the federal billions without scandal of the Harding sort. Men like BUI Douglas at the SEC are now much preoccupied with the problem of replacing the new deal volunteeera Douglas has a scheme for getting the large law schools to send down their best men as "apprentices" for a year or ao. with the best tech- ' nlcal lobs In the mtvmmnt nmm. ' tser to the successful candldatea. There are other schemes aa well. But one thing la certain. If the govern ment contlnuee aa complex aa It haa become, and If It la not managed by trained, disinterested minds, then government will collapse under Its own weight. . WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.
