There was nothing like a tailor-
made suit with a gold watch
chain hanging across the vest to
guarantee a man a good, long
pearance in court in a convict term in the penitentiary.
If the news about the Florida

are probably a lot of men who

How many broken hearts do
you suppose there are in the coun-
try now because of the decission
of Ambassador Kennedy to dis-
continue the practice of present-
ing lady visitors to London at the
Court of St. James?
There are probably more bro-
ken hearts in this democratic
country than most of you sus-
pect, and certainly more than
their owners would admit. Ma-
ternal’ ambitions to have the
daughter kneel before a king and
queen seem a little out of charac-
ter here, but then, there are more
than a few proud descendants of
several generations of thorough
Americans who are sometimes
just a little out of character
themselves, whether they would
enjoy the thought or not.
Almost everybody gets “out
of character” briefly from time
to time. That’s why people some-
times pay outrageous prices for
things they don’t want. There’s
no use breaking any more hearts
now, so why not suggest a sub-
stitute for this court presentation
business? f ■
Why not make it some kind of
social privilege to be presented,
say, to a facsimile, copy of the
Declaration of Independence?
Or make it so that some special
distinction attaches to having
read some of the pieces by Tho-
mas Jefferson.
But don’t put such honors out
of anyone’s reach. Too few per-
sons have been so honored al-
ready.
Coming
Summer approaches, the pulse
of nature quickens, life begins,
and shortly the country’s motor-
ists will start slowing up one an-!-
other’s pulses and ending their
lives.
Traffic cops know that good
weather breeds bad accidents. I
The -safest time to take a spin is i
at the'height of a rainstorm or
the tag end of a good thick bliz-1
zard. Most people are more than!
ordinarily cautious then. When
the sun comes out and the roads
dry off, everybody does a little
relaxing, lets it out, and turns his
car into a kind of traveling nut
house.
The season, therefore,, is ripe
for taking stock . . . of your own
assets and liabilities'as a driver,,
the ones that appear to be those
of the average driver • you en-1
counter, and those of your car as
something to entrust your life to.
How long it will take to-make
the nation’s highways as safe as
its sidewalks nobody cares to
guess, but the problems of traffic
have never commanded such
concerted, countrywide study as
they are-now receiving. National
.organizations, community
groups, city, county, State, and
Federal officials are going after
satisfactory solutions from every
conceivable angle.
Highway improvement is one
idea. The chairman of Connecti-
cut’s Highway Safety Commis-
sion has recently expressed
hope, as have others, for compul-
sory car inspection prior to any!
transfer of ownership of a sec-
ond-hand automobile. The impo-
sition of driving tests and other
examinations on license appli-
cants is growing. —
A Chicago traffic court judge
has gone to the extent of having
traffic law violators examined
by psychiatrists, and induced to
take treatments whose purpose is
the correction of the “personality
twists” responsible for their ab-
normal behavior at the wheel.
The greatest movement, and!
the most effective one, is the,

I hope that German religious
leaders will understand that Nazi-
lain and Christianity cannot ha

It is disturbing to think that

Although most people, are in-
clined to thing that hoarsenesae or
laryngitis is wholly a matter of
the throat, experts are convinced
that every case of chronic laryn-
gitis demands investigation of the
whole body with a view to deter-
mining all of the factors that may
be responsible.
Some people constitutionally
develop overgrowth of tissue
after there has been damage.
These people develop large scars
when others develop small scars.
In such cases when there Is com-
tinuous irritation with inflamma-
tion and swelling, they are likely
to develop permanent thickening
of the tissues that, arc inflamed.
In peopU-wilh-this tendency to
overgrowth of fibrous tissue, the
vocal cords when inflammed tend
to become permanently thickened.
The muscles associated with move-
ments of the vocal cords also de-
velop changes which make it dif-
ficult for the vocal cords to vi-
brate, and to meet, properly when
needed for speech.
In. most cases, chronic laryn-
gitis is due to some factor like
infection, irritation or general dis-
ease. There are, of course, some
cases in which the voice is abused
by excessive use or by overstrain
of the vocal cords. There are other
instances in which irritating fac-
tors like smoke, dust and gases
act on, the larynx.
In certain diseases like gout,
high blood pressure or inflamma-
tion of the kidneys, there may be
difficulty with the circulation of
the blood to the tissues. Certainly
it is possible for syphillis, tuber-
culosis and cancer to affect the
lamyx as they may affect any
other tissue in the human body.
The first step, therefore, in any
case of laryngitis is to find out
if any of these general constitu-
tional factors are present and to
get at such causes rather than to
attempt immediately to relieve
the condition by sprays, Inhala-
tions or other medicines.
Dr. L. H. Clerf records three
important "Don’t" fbr every case
of chronic congestion of the lar-
ynx. They are: 1.' Don’t smoke.
2. Don't talk. 3. Don’t use al-
cohol. Rest -of the voice is one of
the most Important factors.
