the attention elsewhere.
Coughing, sneesing, swallowing
ice, vinegar or cold water, or vom-
iting may yield relief. Pulling out
the tongue will stop the attack
in some cases.
There are cases of hiccoughs
stopped by having the patient
breathe Into a paper bag and re-
inhaling the breath that has paw-
ed out. This breath is full of
carbon dioxide. Stimulation of the
breathing brought about by inhal-
ing caron dioxide seems to stop'
the hiccoughs.
When hiccoughs persist to the
point of exhaustion, more serious
remedies must be tried. In such
cases the doctor injects narcotic
drugs which depress the nerve ac-
tion.
In the most serious cases, sur-
gical operations may be used in
which the nerve controlling the
diaphragm is constricted and its
reconstractions stopped in that
manner.

On ths Public Xiuarp J
rpOR many years, the chief crit-
" icism of the Bureau of Stan-
dards, that great federal testing
laboratory on the outskirts of
Wash, haa been that it served bus-
iness directly, and the people only
indirectly. That ia the results of

SIDE GLANCES By Geor
_
ZANE of the quaint American be-
u Hefs is that it takes specific
and supervised training to be a
barber or a plumber, but that any-
one at all who can get a certain
number of votes or wangle an
appointment is competent to ad-
minister the affairs of a great
city or run a federal or state gov-
ernment bureau.
While there have been occa-
sional cries for better-trained pub-
lic servants, it has been like the
weather—nobody really did any-
thing about it.
Now a beginning is being made
toward doing something for it.
Harvard for some years has had
a valuable school of business ad-
ministration. Originally it had
been intended as a school of po-
litical science and administration.
Now, under Harvard’s new Presi-
dent Conant, this school is being
turned into a school of “public
and private business.’’
It is planned to offer in the new
school a thorough training not
only for young men who enter
private business, but also for thse
who aim to devote their energies
to the sort of great public enter-
prises that are beginning to grow
in importance, projects such as the
Tennessee Valley Authority, and
public bodies such as the Fed-
eral Trade Commission, Securities
and Exchange Commission, and a
dozen others.
Dean Wallace Brett Donham,
who has ably presided over the
school while it was training prom-
ising young men for private busi-
ness, is thoroughly in sympathy
v ith the idea that important pub-
lic business requires just as thor-
ough training.
It is impossible to improvise a
first-class civil service," he points
out, and cites the two examples
of the World War and the present
crisis, when it was necessary to
build great public organizations
quickly, and many a man put in
an important position proved in-
adequately trained and incompe-
tent.
As more and more functions
become public (and quite regard-
loss of your opinion of that ten-
dency, it’s there) the need for
competent, well-trained men to fill
those posts will increase. Several
schools for training diplomatic
and consular service men already
exist.
There are several city managers
In the country who have made that
a life work, moving up from small
cities in which they had been suc-
cessful to larger ones.
Why not? It there is any more
complex job, requiring better
training and higher ability than
running the complicated affairs of
a great city, it’s hard to imagine
what it is.
rt is encouraging- to note that
the great universities are not ne-
glecting to do their share toward
bbuilding thia better civil service,
and aer attacking the problem at
the- souce; that is, in the train-
ing of better potential material
for this increasingly vital work.
Just then they heard a rooster
crow and Copny loudly shouted,
“Oh, the bird is coming right this
way. It’s up to something now.
The lad was right, they shortly
found. The bird flew right up off
the ground and pecked at fright-
ened Duncy. 'Course this started
quite a row.
“Get but of here,” poor Duncy
cried. The bird, though, stayed
right by his side. “I know what

QOMETIMES one gets discourag-

One sees, despite modern knowl-
edge and facilities, the suffering of
friends, the all-too-wide preval-
ence of disease. And one wonders
just how great is this medical
progress in practical results.

spicuous answer which ought to
be more generally known. For

ASHINGTON, Feb,
tain senators are taking
close squint at Admiral Christian
Joy Peoples.
Peoples has been reported as
likely to have a large finger in
distribution of the .$4,000,000,000
work relief fund. The adminis-
tration sent him to Capitol Hill
to explain after a fashion, its bill
appropriating that sum.
He has a long and honorable
record as the navy's paymaster
and buyer. For more than a year,
as head of the treasury’s pro-
curement section, he has bought
government supplies and built
government buildings.
He has been described as
"Roosevelt’s closest friend in the
navy’’—the friendship dates back
to wartime—and is honest, ami-
able, and well-liked.
But many senators, already
shocked at the proposal to hand
all that money to Roosevelt with
no strings attached, are prone to
check up carefully on anyone like-
ly to be a key figure in doling
out the cash. They know poli-
ticians, contractors, and mere
grafters arc in a lather of antici-
pation.
Linked With Ix>bby
TT was unfortunate for Peoples
A that a lobbyist’s confidential
memorandum laid before the Sen-
ate munitions committee revealed
the admiral as consultant in a
plan to bombard Roosevelt with
telegrams urging him to get the
navy to rescind its ^rejection of
bids by the Bath ’(Me.) Iron
Works for two destroyers.
Certain persons—and I’d hate to
say they weren't admirers of
“Honest Harold Ickes"—began to
whisper that Peoples might be a
bit susceptible to the wiles of
perhaps “the people around Peo-
ples” didn't comprise the best
politicians and lobbyists and that
imaginable staff.
They pointed out that in secret
testimony before the Glass sub-
committee, Peoples had described
an assistant, Max Dunning, as "a
very able engineer” who had "re-
signed” from the PWA housing
division “to accept an appoint-
ment in the procurement division.”
Record Isn’t Dazzling
rpHE Who’s Who record de-
scribes Dunning as an archi-
tect, not bis an engineer. In other
records he appears as a victim of
the cleanout in thq PWA housing
division which followed an inves-
tigation and decision by Ickea
that the division, under Director
Robert Kohn, had made a mess of
things and had been far too gen-
erous in its valuations of property
presented by promoters.
“You don’t seem very concerned when I say that I pulled
sixty-two gray hairs out of my head this morning.*'

X-Ray On Farley
QTILL other records being con-
ID templated on Capitol Hill seem
to go a long way toward explain-
ing recent rumors here that Louis
Glavis, chief investigator for
PWA and Secretary Ickes, had
"investigated” Postmaster Gen-
eral Farley—to Farley's intense
indignation.
Last summer Glavis and his
men investigated the $4,250,000
postoffice annex building and the
$6,000,000 federal courts building
in New York.
The General Builders’ Supply
Corporation had sold about $195,-
000 of cement, plaster, brick, and
terra cotta blocks to the contrac-
tor or sub-contractors for the an-
nex job and about $185,000 worth
of materials for the federal courts
job.
General Builders’ Supply is
known in New Yorfeas “Farley’s
company” and the poSSRaster gen-
eral, although he resigned as its
president, was still R
out, ’cause Duncy’d chased her all
about. Brave Scouty noticed this,
and shouted, “Oh, let her alone.”
"That Wiggly worm gives her
a fright, and she is in an awful
plight. To pay you back, you
ought to get a good scare of your
own.”
Then Duncy stopped and said,
“Aw, gee, most everybody picks
on me, just ’cause I want to have
a little fun with this fat worm.
“I held the strange thing ’way
up high, which made wee Dstty
shout and cry. If she’d just stop
and look, she’d have to laugh to
see it squirm.”
