Organised two years ago. the cluh meets onre a month, collects no dues and sleets Is L. A. Our Civic Idiot? IN'tbis world of bitterness and strife it is always pleasant to S find SOMEONE who agrees with you. If the persons happens to be one whose opinion has considerable weight so much the better. Which explains why the article printed below, taken from the New York World-Telegram, pleased the present writer. IX his travels in the past, the skipper of this column has frequently had occasion to visit the great city of Los Angeles. And while his dislike of that overgrown metropolis, has de creased, as his familiarity with and understanding of it have increased, he has never ceased to regard it, as the freak of all American cities, a soiled, cockeyed, crazy, incomprehensi ble metropolis. And such reactions have been expressed from time to time in this department. So much so that not only his friends down there, but many up here with pro-California sympathies, have been considerably irritfttcd, and asked why if h. A. is such a terrible place, ye editor insists, 'year after year in going dow.n there. The answer, of course, has been the climate. Southern Califoruia has the best winter climate this side of Arizona, and it is pretty difficult to spend any time during the winter in a good climate end keep out of the City of Angels, entirely, although last winter we did skip it pretty successfully, by motoring around it. 'T'HERE is another point. While the place, from a civilized standpoint is terrible, it is also interesting and at times, fascinating. We can imagine nothing much worse than having to live there, it would be like living across the street, from a third-rate side show, but like a side show it isn't so bad to visit, from time to time. One sees and hears things that are to be seen and heard nowhere else. However that may be, the person who agrees with us this time is Mr. Westbrook Pegler, stormy petrel of the Scripps Howard papers, who we judge has recently been forced to spend a few days in Hollywood's bibulous and bubbling Babylon. i Without more ado we reprint Westbrooks verdict, we wonder what the h. A. Times and the chamber of commerce are going to do about it. r' U hereby earnestly proposed that the 17. 8. A. would be much better off If that big, sprawling, Incoherent, shapeless, slobbering civic Idiot In the family of American communities, the City of Los Angeles, could be declared Incompetent and placed in charge of a guardian like any Individual mental defective. It Is only a wistful thought, but the futility of hoping that this wise step might be taken Just adds emphasis to the nuisance. Los Angeles is the source and home of more political, economic and rellgloua Idiocy than all the rest of the country together and a concentration point of shiftless and Inefficient culls who, being too lazy or lacking the ability to make good In their native regions, drift In expecting to be fed from heaven or the public pantry. San Francisco, a city of character and manhood, has suffered greatly from the coolie competition of a rival having neither Intelligence nor standards and la the first victim of the Infantile giant to the south. The rest of the nation, however, has had to contend with the $30-every-Thursday scheme, and the Influence of other absurd ities emanating from Los Angeles has been bad. The courts are notorious for the silly conduct of clowns In silk, and adolescent Jurors who condone premedlated murder and let killers loose, because they bawl about love and the religious travesties which thrive In this atmosphere, have mocked sense and piety for years. NOWHERE but In Los Angeles could Upton Sinclair, admitting hi inability to conduct his own enterprise successfully, have gathered the nucleus of a following which seriously threatened an Important state with an economic hallucination described by one of his trusted lieutenants as the revolving of wheels within wheels. This was the plan by which a man with an old windmill who needed a pair of shors and two pounda of atew meat traded the windmill to the owner of a gravel pit who traded gravel to a man building a concrete silo who gave him a calf whose hide became shoes on the feet and whose snlews becamo atew In the pot of the man whose necessities began the chain of transactions. But Mr. Sinclair's plan was a model of practical distribution by comparison with the fantasies of others which have originated in Los Angeles, at least one of which, according to ita author, who ran for Congress, came to him in thundered tones from an unseen speaker, believed to have been Ood. as he sat waiting his turn to expound hla wisdom In a church. r Up to that moment he hud never known anything about money or economics, but when, a rninut later, he was called upon to speak the ideal plan had been revealed to him out of the air, as he said, perfect In all Its details. Los Angclca Is a region, not a city, with llmlta extended far beyond the practical ability of even a good city administration to govern, and extended for evil motives not legitimate civic ambition. The town atrctched to take In useless, worthless real estate, owned by foreslghted grafters, and to advance the lines of defense against efforts to organise labor. But neither the alee of the place nor the Incoherence of Ita government accounts for the lunacy which Is characteristic of the place and for which It la known above every other characteristic. Nobody hsa been able to explain why Los Angelea Is peculiarly susceptible to absurdities In all fields, particularly those of the mind and soul, and the solution seems hardly worth the bother. It la like trying to determine why a craay man la craiy. but with a difference. The difference I that the craay man la recognised to be nuts and la placed under glass, whereaa Los Angeles enjoys tha rights and frocdom of normal communities and sometimes halt-convlncea people elsewhere there Is nothing peculiar about cutting paper dolla. A Woman Talks Sense WHEN business enters the door, scruple- too often fly out the window. Thnt's the indielment Nina Wilcox Putnam levels ngninst business relations in the current Rotnrian Mii;r gine. Drawing upon her own experience in commercial trans actions, the widety known author, in representing the woman 8 point of view, outlines a set of simple, practical rules for improving business relations. Here they are: "Be sure you give whst you ars being paid for. All business growth, be It In the selling of apples or In the selling of Ideas. Is built on repeats, "Never use your personal affairs as an alibi for non perl or manes. The purchaser Is interested tn the goods he get, not In your prlvats prohli-m. "Never be 'smart aleoAy' or affected In your manner when a business deal la involved. Your approach will be enything but welcome. A direct, simple, and natural manner Is your best intro duction to any client or prospect. "Never try to got something for nothing. The effort, always futile. Is spotted Immediately and brands you Indelibly as a fafce. People don't foritel that sort of thing and they are not reluctant to spread the news. "Never. NRVF.H loee your temper no matter how wholly wrong your business contact of the moment may be. By losing your temper you put yourself at a disadvantage. Many a deal has been consum mated satisfactorily to all parties because one ot them kept coo). "Don't waste your own vital energy by brooding over a bad business desl or a business Injustice. FVrget It and go ahead with something new, "Always fulfill ymir contracts on time, or a little before time It possible. The upstage gesture ot delay Is an empty one, no matter how Important you are. He who can be depended upon la the one who nets results. "The success?! of dishonesty and charlatanism are imially brief, believe it or not Just like the success of crime In a lesser degree, '(.letting away with It' Is not business success; U Is slack wire performance on a ruMcd wire. "Above all. assume that the other fellow la at leaM as decent and honest as you are. Distrust engriwUTB distrust. Faith often begets faith In the most urjttng degree."

The capillaries of the body, how ever, are not tubes or vessels at all, but Just spacee between the cells. through which the blood seeps as water seeps through sand. I What are com r rai monly but In accurately called i. ? capillary vessels Fk .- .if actually ar. I X I terlolea. the very I X V .1 finest arteries, so I .jrV'l fine that they can be seen only with the aid of t h microscope. Arterioles have walla and are blood vessels; capil laries are not. It takes the blood approximately 23 seconds or 28 heart beats to make one complete circuit of the cardio vascular system. The blood travels slowest In the capillary areas that Is, In the tissues where the oxygen Is passed over to the tissue cells and the carbon dioxide picked up to be carried back to the lung. You may observe the capillary cir culation by noticing the blanching of the skin Just below the base of the nail on the back of the fii.am- when you draw your thumb across ine area so as to soueeze th hlrwi out of It; and the number of seconds required ror the return of the normal flush la an Index of the efficiency of your capillary circulation and your general circulation as well, in a healthy person the normal flush re turns within three or four seconds. In one In the early stage of cardio vascular degeneration say thrombo- angiitis from excessive smoking the blanching remains longer, perhaps six or eight seconds. The capillary area between the smallest arteries, the arterioles, on the one side and the smallest veins the venules, on the other, may be regarded as a lake with 600 to 800 times greater cross section area than the stream itself (arterlolea or ven ules), so the velocity of movement or flow Is naturally alow through the lake. The reduction velocltv ha advantages, for It Is here that the interchange of cases (oxygen and carbon dioxide), nutritive materials and waste products takea place be tween blood and tissues. Prom the capillary "lake" the blood passea along through the smallest veins (venules) and on Into larger veins, finally reaching the heart.

From the right auricle It passes through the tricuspid valve Into tha right ven tricle, and from the right ventricle through the pulmonary valve Into the pulmonary artery which conveys the blood to the lunga. Again It passes through the capillary area In the lungs where it gives up its carbon dioxide and Is freshly oxygenated (changed from venous to arterial blood). Then It Is returned through the pulmonary veins to the left auri cle, thence through the mitral valve Into the left ventricle, and Is finally pumped Into the great artery or aorta through the aortic valve.

QRSTIONS AND ANSWERS Minerals and Vitamins. Is It true that cooking foods with Just enough water to cover and slowly so the water evaporates and there Is none to throw away will destroy the minerals and vitamins In the food? (Mrs. M. R. P.) Answer Cooking destroys consider able vitamin C, less vitamin B. Vita min B la dissolved In the water the food la cooked In perhaps three fourth of the vitamin B naturally present In foods so cooked Is lost If the cooking water la thrown away. Also a argc portion of the mineral salts In foods so cooked is lost If the water is thrown away. The cooking water should be used for soup or gravy. Pood cooked aa you describe retains more of the vitamins and minerals. Report Every 80 Years I am 83 years of age, play 18 holes of golf dally; and have never had any doctor but you. (P. L. B.)

Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS SWING music has just been banned In Wurttemburg (Germany), naxl leaders there declaring that "swing may be fit for negroes and Jews, but not for us Germsns." Wurttemburg musicians have been told they must Indulge In no musi cal acrobatics snd must handle per cussion Instruments (drums, cym bals, etc.,) "according to the Ger man conception" of what Is proper and fitting. Presumably they added: "Or else!" SOUNDS nutty, doesn't It? Stilt, there Is always the possi bility that swing music may sound nutty to German ears. Lots of people, you know, simply detest olives. This writer thinks cav iar is FOUL. " MUSSOLINI, weread, Is beginning to colonize the burning sands of Libya, In recently conquered Ethiopia. Complete "homesteads," with houses, barns, and everything ju7- ready to move In, are being de veloped by the Italian government (a la Matanuska, Alaska) and thither 15,000 colonists are being dispatched the forerunners of some 80,000 that are expected to follow. The houses, we are told, will have no electric lights, the beneficent gov ernment having learned by exhaus tive tests that the more light in Italian houses the FEWER Italian babies. f ITALY claims to be seriously men aced by over-populatfon so griev ously menaced, as a matter of fact, that she has to go forth and conquer new territory in order to provide an outlet for her teeming millions. So she seeks in every possible way to stimulate the birth rate, so there will be MORE teeming millions. That sounds like one for the book, doesn't It? THE HOTTENTOT wears a ring in his nose. Then he piles his hair on top of his head, mixes It with mud and sticks a bone through It. Going around with a ring In his nose and a bone stuck through his hair WOULDN'T appeal to an Ameri can.

IF EVERYBODY would Just start in tomorrow morning doing the things ho likes to do and letting the other fellow DO WHAT HE LIKES, it is probable that humanity as a whole would be quite a little happier.

And the agricul ture department, fearing Its scheme will be thrown out of kilter, does not wish to go so far. The. significance of the "two-price system," if It survives the first tests, can hardly be exaggerated. As a pub lic health measure, it Is vastly im portant, especially in such cities as New York, where It will be easiest to manage and where tens of thous ands of slum-dwellers now have be low minimum diets. Aa an economic phenomenon. Its effects may be far reaching. Of course. Secretary Wallace's chief temporary headaches the immense surpluses In wheat and cotton will not be greatly diminished by the new scheme. There is hope that giving cheap cotton mattresses and cheap flour to the poor will dispose of com paratively small amounts of wheat and cotton. Rigid production control In the next years must remove the remainders of these surpluses In ex port crops, for which there is no real demand In this country. But, In the long run. the agricul ture department envisions Its new scheme affecting wheat and cotton. Greater demand for the vegetables, fruit and dairy products needed for health will be created by the two price system. As the demand grows, it will be possible to shift wheat and cotton land into production of foods for which demand exists. And thus It is hoped to effect a slow reorganiz ation of the nation's agriculture. The hope may be Utopian, but the scheme is interesting. However Utopian they may be, the schemes of the agriculture depart ment look considerably more attract ive after you have Inspected the al ternatives. There Is little effective support for a return to the pre-AAA status. The farmers still want' gov ernment donatives. But now the donatives are demanded in the form of such rural snnke oils as the do mestic allotment BChcme and general prlce-flxlng. Curiously enough, the recent dis aster at the polls has not worried the agriculture department overmuch. The department expects the present farm law to be left Intact, with larg er benefit payments, the two-price system, and perhaps processing taxes merely added as trimming. It Is the theory that the farm organizations and the farm senators and congress men will all quarrel u so violently among themselves that they will end by accepting the department's pro gram with gratitude. There's no doubt that there will be an almighty row In congress. It Is to be hoped, at least, that the de partment is right In forecasting that none of the snake oils will finally be prescribed by law. But there are rea sons to believe that the forecast Is a trifle optimistic. i ---Aflaiiiai NEW RECRUIT m (he ranks of the Metropolitan opera la Rise Steven, contralto, who is one of the three Americans, out of 16 new artists, picked for a debut this season.
