HELP RECOVERY
It has always been regarded as
bencficii! to whoever practiced
It to economize by holding ex-
penses to the minimum. But in
this depression those men who
have whittled the size o; their
working force down to the thin-
est shadow possible have not
been a help
Work has been '.he most essen-
tial thing in the program of re-
covery. If then was work for all
there would not be a problem
now for us to face. Consequent-
ly it follows that those who have
let men out when it was possible
to hold them have fed the
flames nf distress instead of be-

SNAKE BITES
A warning about the dangers
of snake bite has Just been is-
sued by the state health officer.
A rwimber of cases of snake bite
are reported each year in Texas
during the summer and early
fall However, few of these result
fatally.
Man of the bites occur on the
hands or feet, which indicates
that stepping or falling In the
immediate vicinity of an unseen
snake or picking up objects un-
der similar conditions are the
hazards of contracting snake
bite. The pain following the in-
jection of the poison is most in-
tense. Other symptoms are swell-
ing. giddiness, difficult breath-
ing, hemorrhage, weak pulse and
vomiting.
If one is unfortunate enough
to be bitien by a poisonous snake
such as the rattlesnake, the fol-
lowing first, aid measures should
be carried out
After making proper incisions
at tlie site of the wound, apply
suciion and continue for at least
half an hour.
Apply a tourniquet above the
site of the wound.releasing same
every ten or fifteen minutes for
about a minute at a time.
If the proper antivenom serum
lx available, apply it according
to directions, but most imfiort-
ant of all is to remove as much
of tiie poison as Is possible, so as
to prevent its absorption,
Secure the services of a physi-
cian at once
If one is bhten by a poisonous
snake Do Not run or vet over-
heated and Do Not take ary al-
coholic stimulants, berim e cir-
culation increased bv alcohol or
exrrcj.se serves to dlstribu'e the
poison much more rapidly thru
'hr body.
Don't injure the tissues by in-
jecting permanganate of potash,
whieh is known to be of no val-
ue as an antidote.
Don t depend on home reme-
dies or so-called snake bite cures
for they are of no value.
farmers and stockmen. The fol-
lowing year, Texas revised Us
anti-trust laws to meet this ob-
jection. In 1911, In recodifying
Texas laws, the legislature man-
aged to get the original version
back into the revised statutes In
1925 the statutes were again re-
vLscd, again the exemption of
farmers appeared in the revision.
The Austin district court dis-
missed the attorney general's
conspiracy suits against 15 maj-
or oil companies because, it held,
the NRA superseded the Texas
anti-trust laws. The appeals
court did not pass on this Inter-
esting question, but held the leg-
islature clearly Intended to ex-
empt farms, since the exemption
was carried through two re-
visions. When the supreme court

In the number of men now un-
der arms, the United States falls
below any of the powers, even
the recent Increase In the army
to 165,000 men toiling to bring
tt abreast of the English army,
the lowest In Europe. Otherwise
however, oar country is not so
backward. The planned expend-
itures of $875,000,000 for nation-
al defense during the coming
year are larger than those of
any nation In the world, except
possibly, Russia. Both In men
and number of Warships our
navy ranks first, and we are top-
ped only by Russia and France
in the size of our air force.There
are weak spots, ol course, occa-
sioned by the lack of destroyers
and submarines in the navy,and
the lack of equipment In both
the army and navy. But many
of these gaps are expected to be
sealed over during the coming
year. Army strength, however, is
apt to remain as It Is, with little
hope or little fear of It ever
reaching a peace-time strength
equal to France’s 000.000 or Rus-
sia’s 850,000. — Pathfinder.

"One of the major concerns of

“Is the encroachment of govern-

competitor of private enterprise.
“The actual Intrusion that al-
ready has taken place and the
threat of further activity of this
