A blow on an eel’s tail will kill
it more quickly than a blow on
its head.
Chinese peasants near Hiachow, in Kiangsu province,
broke the dikes of the Yellow river the other day to save
their farms from being flooded. Their stunt worked, and
their farms were saved—but the river inundated an enor-
mous area downstream, and as a result more than 600,000
people have been rendered homeless.
It is seldom that the shocking cost of the normal
human instinct to save one’s own regardless of the price
others must pay is more vividly illustrated. And yet
these Chinese peasants were not, after all, much worse
than their more enlightened fellow humans in other lands.
What about rich industrial nations which create wide-
spread want by reducing production to preserve individual
investments? What about great agricultural communi-
ties which destroy ripened crops to protect prices, while
other fojk go hungry? The motivation is the same—and
the effect is not, after all, so very different.

The World War made pacifists of a good many sin-
cere patriots. It was so much more terrible than any
previous war and it displayed human killing power raised
to such a fi'ightful new pitch that it shocked many honest
folk into feeling that any disaster, any defeat, would be
easier to endure than a repetition of modern battle.
During the years since 1918 that emotional reaction
has had time to wear off. But it is worth noting that
the military experts have not been inactive during those
years.
The inventiveness that made the World War so
dreadful has been busier than ever before—and, as a
result, the tools that will be used in the next war will
heve a grim efficiency in the matter of taking life that
will make the ingenious devices of 1914 look archaic.
Think of some of the things that being prepared for
helpless flesh and bone: field artillery that puts the mar-
velous "75” of World War deadliness on the scrap-heap;
tanks that whir across the country at slightly less than
a mile a minute; mobile machine gun nests equipped to
spray the landscape with steel-jacketed death at the rate
of three or four bullets a second; bombing planes fleet
enough to leave far behind the fastest pursuit planes of
the last war; cavalry troops that have discarded the horse
for the motor truck, and so have quadrupled their strik-
ing range; anti-aircraft guns that can throw shells into
the air at the rate of 100 a minute and that have an effec-
tive range of something like nine miles; and tiny tor-
pedo boats that can dart up to battle fleets at 60 miles
an hour.
These are the products of human inventiveness, de-
scribed for readers of this newspaper by Stanley A. Tull-
sen, which are waiting to be put to use the next time the
great powers of the earth have a falling-out.
Thinking about them, you get the feeling that the
human race today is in much the same situation as two
small boys who have innocently equipped themselves with
loaded shotguns while they play Indian.
If both aren’t careful and lucky, they will blow each
other out of existence—and the nations of the world may
do precisely the same thing.
We have not learned how to distribute the fruits of
the earth so that every man can have his share; we have
not learned how to use our marvelous productive ma-
chinery so that it can abolish poverty and hunger; we
have not learned how to reduce crime or insanity or to
eliminate disease. But we have learned how to kill each
other—have learned how to do it with a callous efficiency
that makes the tiger and the shark look amateurish.
There can be no weightier argument for peace than
the mere existence of our wondrous machines of death.

Neville Chamberlain. Britain’s chancellor of the ex-
chequer, tells a political meeting at Glasgow that the
United States has demonstrated its sympathy with Eng-
land in the empire’s current struggle to keep Italy from
muscling in on the British racket in Africa; and the
statement sounds very much like the opening gun in one
of England's deft propaganda campaigns.
We shall hear more and more of this sort of thing, if
the Anglo-Italian crisis grows more tense. We shall be
told that Britain is fighting for ciyilizaton, that our sym-
pathies really are on Britain’s side, and that it is our
duty to mankind to co-operate with Britain and help her
as much as we can.
We need to keep constantly in mind that our chief
duty is to ourselves, and that our principal sympathy
ought to be reserved for our own people.

The Farm Bureau Federation,
after much unpleasant publicity

interests, withdrew a couple of
years ago.
Lately, certain instances reach-
ed the ears of REA Administra-
tor Morris L. Cooke. In Mary-
land, a man identified with the
state committee was spreading the
untrue word that the Maryland
public service commission had
ruled that all plans for rural elec-
trification projects must first be
submitted to the local utility com-
pany.
In Iowa another was interpret-
ing REA announcements and
warning that in each case farmers
should mentally add 3 or 4 cents
as the price of wholesale elec
tricity per kilowatt hour. (It might
be anywhere from a few mills to
two cent .) And so on, with the
result that Wallace, Ickes and
Roper and their departments with-
drew.

The "consumers’ cabinet” set up in Washington to
look after the interests of the fellow who does the buying
is going to investigate the price of bread. Secretary of
Agriculture Wallace declares that a jump of even one
penny in, the retail price of bread does not seem to be
warranted, and data on bread costs are being assembled
by field investigators under Don Montgomery, consumers’
counsel for the AAA.
This activity is a welcome step in the right direction.
The administration has had a good deal to say about
protecting the interests of capital and labor, and it is
proper that it should; but the interests of the consumer,
too often, seem to have been overlooked completely. An
increase in the price of such a staple commodity as bread
affects all of us. Lt is good to learn that Uncle Sam
is XQUUK tfi looi ipLo matter.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 28- Sec-
retary Ickes is now a member of
only 29 boards, committees and
commissions. The number used to
be 30.
Along with Wallace of Agricul-
ture and Roper of Commerce, he
has resigned from the Committee
on the Relation of Electricity to
Agriculture. The federal govern-
ment has completely withdrawn
from participation in the com-
mittee’s activities.
The inside story Is that certain
persons intimately associated with
the committee were found to be
sabotaging—consciously or other-
wise—the program of the Rural
Electrification Administration.
Herbert Hoover had much to
do founding the committee in
1923. There was widespread howl-
ing for cheaper and more rural
electricity, which power companies
thought they’d better take in hand.
The National Electric Light Asso-
ciation and the American Farm
Bureau Federation organized the
group, the Commerce, Interior
and Agriculture departments
'came in to give it prestige-—and
the franking privilege—and power
I companies paid the bills.
, Avoid Talk of Rate.
| Committees, organized in 21
states, were comprised of farm-
ers, subsidized college professors
and power company men who ran
the show. “Power trust” com-
panies always insisted the set-up
was a brake against cheaper rural
electricity, since little was done
hut research and the rates issue
was carefully avoided.

BY DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN
A FEW weeks ago an old man
In Tennessee was bitten by a rat
and shortly thereafter developed
I rat bite fever. People generally
I were astonished that the bite of a
] rat could produce a definite dis-
| ease, and also that such a case had
occurred in the United States.
Actually, rat bite fever is a well-
recognized disorder. Recently a
good many cases were reported
among men who had been working
in the sewers in London.
When human beings are bitten
by animals of the rodent type, in-
cluding incidentally not only the
rat, but the weasel, the pig, and
occasionally even the cat, they
are sometimes infected with a pe-
culiar organism which produces a
disease of the whole body.
This disease is characterized by
short attacks of fever, alternating
with periods without fever, and
an eruption on the skin. Such
cases have been known in the
United States for a century.
The usual course of such a case
is as follows:
After the person has been bit-
ten, the wound heals promptly un-
less a secondary infection occurs.
One to three weeks later, the
spot of the bite becomes red and
swollen, and the person who is
infected develops the usual symp-
I toms of infections in general —
headaches, general pains, and
fever, sometimes a chill and a feel-
ing of sickness.
Finally an eruption appears, at
first most prominent in the region
of the wound, but later spreading
over Um body.
From this time on, attacks of
rever will occur every five or six
days, sometimes less frequently.
Gradually the person loses weight
. nnd may become exceedingly sick,
due to loss of nutrition and gen-
. era I healiih.

, people who are infected cventual-
1 ' ly die of the disorder.

ful engineer who more than any
other man in the last 15 years.
h..t exposed inflated utility rates.
But he now bolds out the olive
branch to utilities, pointing out
that co-operation with REA on a
fair-profit basis is good business.
Incidentally, this may be a good

ents, particularly when they lived
in basement honies or poverty-
stricken tenements. Of course,
a cat may became contaminated
through its hunting of rats.
The doctor makes his diagnosis
of this condition not only by tho
symptoms that have been men-
tioned, but also by finding tho
germ which causes the disease in
the wound, and examining, ma-
terial taken directly from lymph
glands near the wound.
There are also cases in which
people have been bitten by rats
and become infected, not with this
organism, but with the usual
germs that cause infection, sueh
as the staphylococcus and strepto-
It is customary to treat this con-
