work, perhaps is too old to work, and by the
way we are not so sure that she even knew
she is on the payroll . . .Another employee
of our dear old Uncle Sam, through his agent,
the Hon. Mr. Robinson of Arkansas, is a
brother-in-law, who does not even live in
Washington. He is a banker in Hot Springs,
what he does was not disclosed in the inves-
tigation, but it was presumed that he keeps
his finger on the pulse of the people back at
home for the Senator. This brother-in-law,
is, however, not so valuable an employee as
the aged mother-in-law. He only receives
$2,200 for his salary . . . This sort of condi-
tion was not confined to the Senator from
Arkansas, but was rather generally true with
all of them . . . Even Speaker Garner has his
wife on his payroll as his secretary but it is
shown in his case that the wife actually
works ... He also has his son on the payroll
too, and his son still lives in Uvalde, Texas,
and looks after his father’s ranch interests ..
by the way, long ways from headquarters at
that... In view of these conditions it is need-
less to say that the bill was hopelessly de-
feated, quite natural of course for the con-
gressmen. They are willing to pinch the toes
of the dear people back home but when it is
turned around ... nay, nay Pauline ... Here’s
what should happen and so far as we are con-
cerned it is going to happen. The Congres-
sional record showing the vote on this partic-
ular bill should be gotten by every voter
throughout the whole country and the people
should see that every one of those boys who
have been practicing this high-handed graft
and crookedness remain at home from here
out... Even our own Texas has a law against
such graft as this in the Anti-nepotism law.
It’s a shame that the people will stand for
such thievery on the part of the members of
Congress. Still our Congresmen are crying
aloud for ways and means to balance the bud-
get. Is it any wonder that it needs balancing
so badly?
-------------------o-------------------
Grover Cleveland said in one of his fa-
mous messages, speaking of the tariff and
the necessity of reform, "It is a condition and
not a theory that confronts the Amer'c >n
people.” Well, the people of Texste are fac-
ing a condition and not a theory. In other
words, they demand that all appropriations
made by the incoming legislature shall ft :n
with the revenues in sight and that tapping
of new sources will be mighty unpopular with
those who bear the brunt of governmental
expense.—Mineral Wells Index.

WASHINGTON, D. C.,— Senator Hen-
rik Shipstead, Minnesota Farmer-Laborite
and political radical as the conservative east,
at least, regards him, probably is the only
member of congress upon terms of informal
acquaintanceship with royalty.
Senators David A. Reed of Pennsylvania
and Joseph T. Robinson of Arkansas, who
have served as disarmament plenipotentaries,
have been presented at the court of St. James
to be sure, but that kind of contact with
crowned personages is official, and stiff with
etiquette—anything but chatty and human-
ly friendly. Perhaps there are others among
the lawmakers who have been received in
similar conventional style by old world reign-
ing monarchs.
Senator Shipstead’s visit with King Haa-
kon VII of Norway was on an entirely differ-
ent basis; it was a real visit.
The Minnesotan liked the king, too. Lib-
eral as he is, he is frank to say so.
"He was the only king I met,” relates
the senator, “on my trip to Europe last sum-
mer.
"He’ll want to see you,” the United States
minister told me, soon after my arrival in
Oslo. "There’ll be no ceremonial about it.
Just call at the palace and ask for him. The
only rule is—when he rises, the interview’s
ended.” Of course that was a custom I al-
ready was familiar with; it applies here, too,
to the president.”
“My appointment,” continued the Min-
nesota solon, "was for a little after noon.
“I punched the button as casually as at
an ordinary person’s house. While I was giv-
ing my name to the servant who opened the
door, the king himself appeared. ‘Come right
in’, he said, holding out his hand cordially.”
Maybe it should be remarked at this
point that the senator, on his own part, pre-
sents a figure of no small consequence. One
of the tallest and handsomest men on Capitol
Hill, he unquestionably represented the sen-
ate abroad with a high degree of credit.
Moreover, he was on hand by prearrange-
ment. The average tourist might not be so
readily welcomed even by as democratic a
monarch as King Haakon.
Anyway, “He’s a big chap,” proceeded
the senator, with his narrative, “but lean;
athletic looking
"He wore a soft shirt and collar and a
plain business suit.”
"Sitting down at his desk,” went on the
Minnesotan, "he began to talk, and I quickly
realized that he had a wonderful grasp on
world affairs. Particularly, as was to have
been expected, Europe’s — every country’s—•
its economics, its politics, all its problems.
“As he talked he pounded his desk for
emphasis.
"I grew so interested that I entirely for-
got he was a king and likewise pounded his
desk, in answering him.
“Why don’t you do so-and-so?” I asked,
in connection with some situation he was dis-
cussing.
"Ho, ho, ho!” he laughed. “No one pays
the slightest attention to my suggestions.”
"And it’s true enough that the Norwei-
gans are intensely individualistic. As the
king said, “In Norway every man is his own
prime minister.”
"One doesn’t think of a king as having a
sense of humor, but he’has.”

The failure of many people to succeed is
due to extravagance and lack of attention to
their business affairs.
Many people are broke because they
spend foolishly every cent they make. The
faster they make money the faster they
spend it.
The man who earns money should save a
part of it and then invest his savings in the
home city. Investing in the home city not
only helps the investor, but every citizen in
it.

The commonest cause of backache
adults is infection of the bony and muscular
structures of the back. This may occur in
the muscles and tendons, for which the name
“lumbago” is as good a term as any.
The joints of the spine may be involved
in a long chronic process, with the deposit of v
bony overgrowth between the vertebral
bones It causes severe backache in its ear-
ly stages and the pain frequently goes around
the front of the chest or abdomen, making
the victim believe he has heart trouble, or
gallbladder disease, or appendicitis. After
the spine becomes stiff the pains usually dis-
appear, although considerable disability re-
mains.
Strain of the back, particularly of the
sacro-iliac joint, at the base of the spine, is a
moot question even among orthopedic sur-
geons. It probably occurs, but not as fre-
quently as was thought several years ago.

Backache in adults is not caused by dis-
eases which are serious in the sense of
threatening life. There may be more or less
limitation of activity, they may cause con-
siderable bodily disability, but that is the ex-
tent of their danger.
In children backache is not very com-
mon. When a child complains persistently
and continuously—of backache, it calls for a
very careful examination, including X-ray
examination. The same applies to a child
who appears to protect its spine where there
is no actual complaint of pain. You may no-
tice that in walking great care is subcon-
sciously taken not to come down hard on the
heels. If the child has to look around, the
head is turned slowly and deliberately, keep-
ing the back stiff.
The method employed by orthopedic sur-
geons to test these youngsters is to drop an
object on the floor—say a lead pencil—and
ask the child to pick it up. The natural thing
to do is to bend over-arching the back. The
child with spinal disease stoops down by
bending the knees, the back erect and st'ff
and the arms hanging at the side until the

ROME, (UP)—The treasury of the Chi-
nese Republic finds itself richer today thanks
to a wholly unexpected revenue source.
This is represented by Henry Basse, a
German citizen, who before dying last Au-
gust in Bressanone, Italy, bequeathed to the
Chinese government the sum of a million and
half of lire. Basse, though he had a home at
Bonn in the Rhineland, preferred to live at
Bressanone, where citizens used to look up-
on him as a beggar because of his shabby ap-
pearance, and his poor scale of living. How-
ever he had considerable wealth, which he
had accumulated through successfully trad-
ing in China.
The bequest was accompanied by an as-
tounding condition; that that sum was to be
used by the Chinese government to fight the
Europeans. "China to the Chinese,” was the
reason given by Basse in his will in explan-
ation of his action.
Tsiang Lu Fo, the Chinese charge d’af-
faires in Rome, has made several trips to
Bolzano and Bressanone in connection with
the legal steps required by the execution of
Basse’s will, and has returned here with the
bequest. Whether the money will be used to
fight the Japanese, considering that the Eu-
ropeans are, under the present conditions,
defenders of China, is not known.
Tsiang Lu Fo, desiring to show gratitude
to Basse’s memory, handed to Rev. Sorraruj,
the parish priest of Bressanone the sum of
two hundred lire with the request that he
celebrate masses in suffrage of Basse’s soul.
Apology is due the readers of the Daily
New*' for the report of the Junior banquet
given Friday night. The account of the af-
fair does not in any way do justice to the
event, but this is due to the fact that no con-
sideration was given the News in the matter
of having a representative present to take a
detailed report of the banquet. The manage-
ment would have been glad to send a repre-
sentative of the News staff to the banquet
and the magnitude of the affair was no doubt
one that justified a very complete news re-
port. News reporters do not feel that they
have been slighted in a personal way when
they are not called in to represent the press
but they do feel that they should be able to
give the public, a full account of all the activ-
ities of the community. Perhaps the com-
mittee on arrangements didn't realize they
overlooked the most important phase of the
banquet in not providing the means of giv-
ing the matter the publicity it was due.

Is it any wonder that we hear so much
about our national deficit? Is it any wonder
that there is such a pressing need for bal-
ancing the Federal budget? Isn’t the biggest
wonder the fact that we haven’t gone on the
? With the criminal
waste, theft, graft, extravagance, and all
sorts of crookedness in vogue in our national
Capitol, it is nothing short of miraculous
that the whole fabric of our government
hasn’t been wrecked before now.
reason for it is the fact that the
people are patient, and of long suffering.
They have been hoodwinked from year to
year by the gullible promises of candidates,
only to be completely double crossed, cris-
crossed and every other kind of crossed ex-
cept straight across until they have either
become case-hardened or have given up hope
of anything ever being done. However, the
resentment is more marked this year than
ever. Our Congressmen are loud in their plea
for economy to get back on solid ground.
They are extremely anxious to balance the
budget, but lets see just how consistent they
are . . . This week there was introduced a
bill to cut off from the Federal payroll all
lion-working salaried relative employees of
the members of Congress. What happened ?
•. . Just exactly a whole lot . . . Some things
Were brought to light that ought to stir the
feelings and bring to the surface a resent-

bate over the bill It was brought to light

Of all impossibilities', John W. Davis has been sug-
gested recently as a good compromise candidate for the
Democratic presidential nomination, in the event of a
hopeless deadlock between Governor Roosevelt and Al
Smith at the Jeffersonian’s June convention.
The idea undoubtedly originated in some impractical
conservative’s not yet definitely identified head, and a
few eastern newspapers have published it.
The reminder that such a person as John W. Davis
ever existed politically probably is owing to the real John
W.'s appearance at several Democratic gatherings in the
last couple of months, as a participant in planning for the
coming campaign.
Strange as it may seem, the so-called West Virginian
(as a matter of fact he has' lived in New York for years),
who has no more mass appeal than an old-fashioned wood-
en Indkin, is a tremendous success at these smallish meet-
ings, with not more than a good-sized roomful in attend-
ance.
Wherever he can make the attractiveness of his individual presence felt he is the most
delightful of men. In his way, he undoubtedly would make a great president, too. It is un-
derstandable that folk who have been charmed by him at a short range should make the
mistake of imagining he ought to be able to “sell himself” wholesale on the same terms. That
is, it would be imaginable if it had not been tried in 1924.
