NOW that school is well on its
way, one of the first things you
should do is to see that your child
gets a complete physical examina-
tion, or inventory of its health.
The summer vacation has given
the child relaxation and mental
rest. More outdoor air, more ex-
ercise, more sleep and change In
interest probably have improved
the child’s health. But bad weath-
er is corning on, more indoor work
and less play, and that requires
protection against infectious dis-
eases and other ills of winter.
Inoculation against diphtheria |
is a simple procedure and no child
in school should be deprived of
this safeguard. Vaccination against
smallpox should also be done at
this time, if it has not been done
before.

More than half that amount
seems destined for paying the sub-
sidy guarantee to cotton growers.
That would leave perhaps $45,-
000,000 to be spent for disposition
of surpluses,—through export or
diversion to relief channels. The
big argument now is as to whether
most or all of that sum will be
spent to finance dumping food-
stuffs abroad or whether most or
all will be used for relief pur-
chases.
Present tendency in AAA is to
feed the surplus food to Americans
rather than foreigners, but many
congressmen and some farm
groups would prefer to see it
dumped.
Privately, officials admit that
the amount of surplus foodstuffs
Io be distributed for relief this
winter will depend on the extent
to which the unemployed should
for it and the pressure which
farm groups exert for purchases,
once a no-dumping policy is an-
nounced.
$puds Vexing Problem
Tons of potatoes presumably
will be bought by FSRC. (Its most
recent acquisitions are five mil-
lion pounds of butter and ten mil-
lion pounds of dried skim milk.)
There are some funny things
about the potato program, which
has been such a great source of
grief here, which the AAA isn’t
telling anybody.
Relieve it or not, the forthcom-
ing "reduction” program for spuds
is likely to result in lower prices
for potatoes than would the ab-
sence of any program at all. AAA
economists have advised confi-
dentially that the effort to pen-
alize overproduction probably will
result in more production than
they anticipated.
The reason: For a long time po-
tato production has been running
in two-year cycles. After two
years of big production and low
prices—such as the last two years
—potato growers ordinarily cut
acreage drastically, whereupon po-
tatoes become fewer and higher
in price for a couple of years,
whereupon potato growers start
planting big crops again and so
on.
Next year’s crop had been ex-
pected to be small, but the AAA
program’s promise of better prices
13 expected to cause more plant-

WASHINGTON, Oct. 26 -The
old question whether It’s a good
idea to dump, destroy, or suppress
“’surpluses” of food while millions
of people are on the edge of star-
vation is again an issue in New
Deal councils.
There has been some compro-
mise in Roosevelt’s previous firm
determination to abolish the Fed-
eral Surplus Relief Corporation,
which has bought tens of thousands
of tons of foodstuffs in the last
two years for distribution to fam-
ilies on relief.
The FSRC will be transferred
from Harry Hopkins’ soon-to-
vanish FERA to the AAA and fed-
eral purchases for trie needy won’t
be abandoned—at least not entire-
ly.
The president, however, still has
the theory that wages of the work-
relief program and the turning of
direct relief back to the states vir-
tually end the necessity or desir-
ability of free iood for the unem-
ployed. And that is violently dis-
puted within both the agricultural
and relief otganizat ons.
It is contended that WI’A wages
$ ually won’t provide adequate
diets for families, especially in
face of rising prices, that the pro-
gram of ending direct federal re-
lief is only crawling, and that
there will still be plen* of sur-
pluses which should be bought from
farmers to maintain prices.
To Dump or Not to Dump?
ITie issue comes to a head
through an amendment in which
Congress rccenty appropriated 30
per cent of customs revenues to
aid in effectuating the AAA pro-
gram.
The child who is entering school
for the first time should have a
much more careful examination
than one who is finishing the ear-
lier grades. The beginner require*
not only protection agr/nst Infec-
tious diseases, but careful study of
its tonsils and adenoids, and of its
teeth.
The presence of infected or de-
caying teeth may bring about fail-
ure in work at school. Repeated
infections of the throat, or inf4>
tion and swelling of tonsils and
adenoids, not only makes it diffi-
cul for the child to concentrate on
its work, but it makes a sick child
and one below par.
It is much easier for a child of
this type to catch one of the infec-
tious diseases than it is for a child
in good physical condition.
Many children fail to make sig-
nificant progress in school be-
cause they have defects of vision
that have not been corrected. A
child who cannot hear what is be-
ing said or cannot see what is be-
ing written on the blackboard will
find it difficult to keep up with
the other children.
Such a child does not like to ad-
mit its inferiority, and therefore
suffers silently. A suitable exam-
ination made before the child en-
ters school will permit correction
of these defects and give it equal
opportunity with other children.

Ever .since the nation was in swaddling clothes this

COUNTRY PAYS HOMAGE
TO A NOBLE ‘FAILURE’
The success story is one of the most typical of all
American institutions. And that is why it is a good thing
for us to enshrine one or two heroes who did not attain
success—men who failed in their greatest undertakings,
but who, nevertheless, managed to rise superior to their
failures.
It was an instinctive understanding of this, perhaps,
that brought such a large group of notables to Stratford,
Va„ the other day for dedication of the home of Robert
E. Lee as a national memorial. People in 44 states con-
tributed half a million dollars to acquire, restore, and pre-
serve the property.
Gov. George C. Peery of Virginia was there, and
President Roosevelt sent a message, and the ceremony was
in every sense a tribute from the entire nation to Lee s
memory.
Now Lee was by any standard one of the greatest
Americans; and yet he left no tangible achievement to
stand as a reminder of his greatness. . ,, ,
The cause to which Lee gave himself is a blown ghost
on the southern wind, and the echoes of his great battles
have had nearly three-quarters of a century to die away
among the Virginia hills.
There is no institution on which we can lay our hands
t A
I'
a fight
We came
us, and the
treaty oi peace did not mention the issues which hud
brought on the war; but the fighting served notice on the
world, nevertheless, that we were ready to do battle for
that principle, and it remained a cardinal part of
program.
Then in 18917 we went to war again because of inter-
ruption of our sea-borne commerce. That commerce had
been so thoroughly interrupted and man-handled by both
sides in the World War that there actually was a possi-
bility, at one time, that we would fight England instead
of Germany. But the German submarine seemed a greater
menace than the English cruiser, and besides the English
owed us money, and in the end we fought the Germans, and
the freedom of the seas was one of our chief reasons.
Since the war we have spent great sums on our navy,
and most of us have supposed that this was to enable us
to enforce our concept of a free sea on any nation that
tried to flout it.
Now, however, we have turned in the opposite direc-
tion. President Roosevelt’s neutrality proclamation warn-
ing all citizens that they ship goods or buy passage into a
war zone at their own risk is a direct reversal of the tra-
ditional American doctrine. Heretofore we have argued
that an American could use the sea lanes anywhere on
earth save where an actual, affective blockade existed,
and that our warships would be ready to make that right
good. Now we are singing an entirely different tune.
No more striking testimonial to the. growth of the
peace sentiment in America could have been devised. We
are no longer ready to use our navy to protect American
lives and property anywhere and any time. We prefer,
instead, to let American lives and property look out for
themselves if they do not choose to stay at home.
This may make the old-fashioned patrioteer howl with
chagrin; but to the ordinary citizen it will probably look
like common sense. It is hard to avoid war when you
persist in clinging to a policy which, in a pinch, you mus
fight to uphold.
...L we have overdone our enipha-
.....We need to understand that the
wu, <<> .. man does a thing can be more important
than what, he actually does, that a man’s life can far out-
weigh his achievements—that, in short, there are stand
ards by which a man can be completely and everlastingly
defeated and yet not be defeated at all in the realm thai
really counts.
Most of us have little understandings of military tech-
nicalities, and the marvels of Lee’s campaigns leave us
cold. Those who understand such things tell us that he
was an authentic military genius, and we are ready enough
to take their word for it; but at this distance, after all, .1
does not really matter much.
If his military skill were all that mattered, we would
not bother to memoralize him now, for he was eternally
beaten at last and his cause perished.
But there was more to it than that. In this man we
have an unforgettable example of what human nobility
can really be; a supreme expression of the truth that the
whole of • man’s life somehow adds up to more than the
tofc«J of parts.
