BUILDING THE HEMISPHERE
THERE is a lot of talk about the Western Hemi-
sphere these days especially with an emergency
conference of its foreign ministers in session at
Havana.
Nearly all this talk is concerned and properly so
with specific things that can be done to improve
the prospects of the western nations—political tie-
ups economic co-operation military co-ordination.
But we would do well to keep one eye on the
other forces which without benefit of ballyhoo are
gradually building a greater civilization throughout
the Western Hemisphere linking it together as one
great unified area.
Canada for instance will never be the same after
this war no matter what-its outcome. To help de-
fend Britain it is building vast industries where
there were no industries before. The present pro-
gram is designed to make Canada entirely independ-
ent of any outside source for weapons and munitions
of war. Every type of weapon and projectile every
type of plane will soon be produced in Canada it-
self. Twelve new arms factories were recently an-
nounced and to date more than $80000000 in new
plants either has been or is about to be added to
Canada's industrial plant.
This means that Canada after the war will be in
a far better position to maintain independence should
it wish to do so or find it necessary to do so than it
was after the last war. It means that a vast area of
North America is better able to defend itself than
ever before. Greater Canadian industrialization and
defense power is an All-American asset.
Meanwhile Royal Dutch Shell moves bodily out
of The Hague aiqi holds its first meeting in Curacao
Netherlands West Indies. Other companies with
European headquarters from which American re-
sources were exploited are expected to follow suit.
Brazil is building a great steel industry and her
own naval vessels. She is improving her railroads. A
second trans-Andean railroad between Bolivia and
Brazil is projected. F’eru is opening a road system
from the Pacific coast over the Andes into the
Amazon hinterland. Roads are rapidly building in
almost every country.
All this opening-up and industrialization ought to
mean greater production with a higher standard of
living greater interchange of products and greater
defensive ability for ail the American countries.
More clear every day grows the lesson: the world’s
growth and progress during the next 50 years center
in the New World. We must guard well and control
wisely that progress.
THE WATER-RAT
IllS.is the season when every living thing with the
opportunity and the aptitude likes to get into the
water.
It's perfectly natural and should be encouraged.
But summer aquatics always bring their share of
tragedy. The inadequate swimmer the sudden
cramp the unexpected sink-hole the tricky tide or
current take their toll of drownings.
Beyond sensible precautions all too little can be
done to lower this accidental toll. But entirely out-
side the accidental falls the smart-alec ruffian who
plays tricks in the water. In Cleveland a young girl
escaped death only by the heroic action of a resusci-
tation squad after she had been repeatedly ducked by
hoodlums as a misbegotten joke.
The water is no place for practical joking. Beach
guards and all bathers will do well to keep an eye out
for this particular sort of water-rat these days and
to correct summarily his warped sense of humor.
The water itself takes enough victims without human
aid.

AERIAL TORPEDOES
In the reports of the actions in
which the British fleet has dis-
posed of French warships that re-
fused to surrener or to demobilize
the words • aerial torpedoes" occur
over and over again. Thus the
First Lord of the Admiralty. Mr.
Albert V. Alexander told the House
OT Commons that the Richelieu re-
ceived Ihe coup de grace from an
aerial torpedo from which It may
be inferred that the depth charges
with which Lieut. Comdr. R. H.
Bmtowe so daringly crippled her
propellers and rudder were only
partially effective.
We first 1 card of aerial torpe-
does during the World War Their
strongest advocate was Rear Ad-
miral Brae ey A Fiske. of our
Navy. Nobodv paid much attention
to him. probably for the reason
that capital ships were not then
adequately >rotected bv armored
decks The experiments which both
the British and American navies
made in trying unsuccessfully to
destroy obsolete battleships' by
bombs dropped from airplanes must
have stimulated professional think-
ing. In the present conflict not a
single battleship has been sunk by
bombs Evidently the British were
quick to learn the lesson. Since the
Richelieu was one oT the finest
capital ships ever built—one. more-
over. designed to resist attack from
on high—there was nothing for it
but to torpedo her. And torpedoed
she was.
Whetner it is launched from a
submarine destroyer or airplane a
torpedo is always a littla self-pro-
pelled ve'-el carrying a heavy
charge of high explosive. its course
is controlled by a gyroscope a sort
of spinning top. which resists forces
that tend to divert it from its
plane f rotation. Once the gyro-
scope 1« set. the torpedo keeps un-
swervingly on its course. No matter
what the angle may be at which it
strikes the water the torpedo is
guided unfailingly by its gyroscope.
Torpedoes are far more complicat-
ed and expensive devices than
bombs but if battleships are ever
to be sunk from the air. It must be '
bv their means. Belated praise is
due Rear \dmirai Ftske ?or having
seen farther into the future than
'■id any of his contemporaries. —

VT/ASHINGTON — The accumu-
" lated mass of popular misin-
formation about newspaper col-
umning and columnists has been
subjected to a fresh penetrating
attack by a graduating student in
journalism at Notre Dame Uni-
versity.
Working there under the kindly
■ We. guidance of Professor John
Cooney the student. Joe Reardon
Hart sent out questionnaires to
columnists asking their purpose
their methods their qualifications
the human reader instincts at
which they aim for Interest.
Hart s discovery for his graduat-
ing thesis was limited largely to
the profound truth that when
readers say they like or do not
like columns or coiumnlng they
might as well be saying they do
not like the universe. Coiumnlng
covers the full stretch of Journal-
istic activity—sports society the-
atricals. finance business econom-
ics. politics and Just plain person-
alities Anri in each division there
are as manv subdivisions as there
are columnists.
Some in the political line for
Instance daily tell the world what
to do others what the world is
doing. Some relate gossip others
the economic effects of public
1 events. Some emote some rail
‘ some Just plainly urge political
j rction along a certain line.
So to understand even the po-
litical subdivision. It Is necessary
to look behind generalities at the
specified purposes of specified col-
umnists.
ITNFORTTJNATELY. Hart receiv-
ed only two responses to his i
qurstion No. 4: "What is your:
chief purpose in writing a col-
vmn?" At least onlv two were
signed. He came nevertheless to .
the conclusion there are four types
of columns. 11» What he called
the "regular" column dealing with
news and its interpretations. «2»
The ‘contributor ’ type which de-
pends on arousing friendly inter-
est. <3» The "mixture" which he
likened to a department store ear-
ning all imaginable wares and
'4» The "essay." containing phil-
osophical light essays.
If Hart had b*en able to get
the evidence he could have gone
ti.rther and found still greater
degrees of variance in his four
categories He could have found
for instance there is no real col-
umnar category as ‘The Washing-
ton column" because the type here
stretches as far as the grand div-
«ions. each differing and varying
; according to Individual purposes.
£}EST SECONDARY evidence as
1 to the purposes of columns lies
in their titles. In general these at
least represent what the authors
cf the columns sav about what I
they are trying to do Kinner and
Alsop's is accurately “The Capital
Parade." Edwin C Hill "The Hu-
man S'de of the News." Frank
Kent The Game of Politics." Peg-
ler's "Pair Enough.” Elsie Robin-
son "Listen. World." Mrs Roose-
velt "Mv Day” General Johnson's
"One Man's Opinion " Louis Sobol's
O O McIntyre column only bet-
ter than McIntyre's "New York
Cavalcade." Pearson and Allen
The Merry-Go-Round." Ray Tuck-
er "The Whiligig." this one “News
Behind the News." These and some
! others are all accurately expressive
of purposes which are as far apart
as the society and sports pages
Of course there are many titles
which fail to express th«ir pur-
pose. but the intent of these is
often apparent from the text
i There is for instance. Jay Frank-
' un's "We. the People” a column
which is of course intended to be
only "We the New Dealers and
a particular type of New Dealer
at that."
[)OROTHY THOMPSON’S “On
the Record ’ Is not expressive
but everything she puts on her
record clarifies Her intent to
arouse popular sentiments against
Hitler fascism Arthur Krock's in-
tellectual analysis of current poli-
tical events Is beclouded bv the
title “In the Nation." Ray Clapper
ts not politically as strict as his
title ‘Strictly Speaking '
But bv and larg?. the connota-
t;ons of “The Human Sid« of the
New.'." “Merry-Go-Round." “Fair
Enough.’’ and “Whirligig" ?eem to
be accurate descriptions of what
has come to be a mass of confus-
ing intentions.
. •
pERHAPS SOME of the confus on
results from the disinclination
of some newspapers to use the of-
ficial title of the columns but most
of It is surelv traceable to the at-
tacks of politicians upon column-
ists—attacks which have now vir-
tually ceased. These attacks were
leveled without discrimination on
a political basis against essayist
gossip writer and the personal
type of new* reporting which Is
really just a modernization of the
1 universal newspaper practice in the
i beginning.
Fair non-political research such
as the Notre Dame graduating
student started will straighten out
the misconceptions.

• TAKE IT EASY.
By DR JOSEPHINE L.
RATHBONE
Fnr many years physicians have
been trying to reduce fatigue ar.d
nervousness and to bring about
states of relaxation. Some of them
have sought diets whic would off-
set and counter-
act fa igue. They
have fed their
patients food-
stuffs which are
strong in ener-
gy and tissue
building proper-
ties.
Thev have urg-
ed their patients
not to cut down
on simple sugars
or on red meats.
They have or-
dered quantities
Dr. Rathbone of milk for tll
sick people because milk con-
tains calcium as well as easily di-
gested fats. Since the assimilation
of calcium appears to play an im-
portant role in th€ release of ex-
cess tension other physicians are
beginning to give calcium medica-
tion in many forms.
Since ultraviolet irradiation in-
fluences the assimilation of cal-
; ctum. sun and artificial helio-ther-
apy have been instituted for states
of nervous irritability.
Physiotherapy in the forms of
massage and applications of heat
has been used with considerable re-
lief.
w v w
Bevond these measures the med-
ical profession accepts rest as the
great restorative. Many of Its drugs
are to facilitate rest. Yet physi-
cians seek nature's substitutes for
drugs whenever possible. In all
lorms of illness where nervous
symptoms are prominent they are
seeking means for reducing mus-
cular tension and nerve irritability.
In diseases of the pulmonary
and circulatory systems rest is the
primary form of treatment.
In affections of the heart rest is
of great importance. If the involve-
vement Is an easiv diagnosed or-
ganic one. the patient has to be
taught to conserve his energy gen-
erally and also to give the heart
muscle itself periods of recupera-
tive rest.
Arthnt s Is another disease con
dlticn for whirh physicians de-
mand rest. Many workers in this
field have recognized a relation-
ship between the symptom* of
chronic arthritis and ‘nervous-
ness." and they Its* neuromuscular
tenseness as a symptom of arthri-
tis.
Balance activity and rest.
These simple methods which the
physician uses as cures for grave
conditions can be used also to
keep the body in such good condi-
tion that it will not surfer early
from degenerative diseases. Of
Course on** cannot avoid inf* -
tious disea’es bv such measures
but barring such accidents one
can k»ep vigorous and healthy by
eating the right things and by
balancing activity and rest prop-
erly.

Hollywood
HOLLYWOOD *- Th« whole
town's talking about “The Great
MeGmty.” a robuat. punch-parked
hit about politics in a big city.
Loud tough sentimental sad. and
mostly funny in agreeable propor-
tions. It is the neatest job of
straightaway entertainment that has
come from the film factories in a
year
It was made at less than average
time. The Great Mcointy" has
no great names in it* cast and It
is the first picture ever directed
by Preston Sturges. who also wrota
the story. Brian Donlevy. in the
top role had been playing stero-
typed heavies for years and had
about despaired of ever getting
such a part as this. England ! Mu-
riel Angelus. who ha* the femi-
nine lead was heartbroken at be- I
lng dismissed by Paramount short-
ly before the preview the other
night.. She feels better now. Ev-
ery studio in town is bidding for
her.
The atory probably was the
cheapest ever purchased When
Sturges long an ace screen writer
was given a directorship bv Para-
mount. he asked to be allowed • to
film this original comedy. Execu-
tives said no—that they had an- i
other story they- liked better and
could get cheaper.
“Not cheaper.” said Sturges
“You can have the MrOintv story
for nothing If I direct It.” So the
deal was made with 8turges get-
ting a check for 110 to make It
legal.
Room Picture ef Room Town
Biggest picture soon to hit the
screen is “Boom Town.” a West
Texas oil yarn. This movie also is
swell entertainment.
•‘Boom Town” has been fashioned
bv routine processes and it stands
for everything in the pretentious
Hollywood tradition. It s loaded
with stars — Claudette Colbert
Clark Gable. Spencer Tracy and
Hedy Lamarr in that financial or-
der. The sets are realistic includ-
ing a town and oil derricks built
on Metros back lot. Without pre-
liminary title or credits the first
few seconds of the picture seemed
to promise only a dull commercial
short about the oil Industry. Long
Beach fans who happened to be
present during a surprise showing
straightened in astonishment when
a barber yanked n steaming 'owel
from the rugged pan of an oil
worker who looked like Spencer
Tracy. They yipped with excited
comprehension when Clark Gable
entered and a moment later cheer-
ed at the sight of the Misses Col-
bert and Lamarr.
I have no idea how much money
the picture cost except that *1.500 -
ooo is the smallest figure mention-
ed. People close to the production
sar that two million dollars is a
conservative estimate. The highly
nald director. Jerk Conway indul-
ged by the highly paid producer.
Sam Zirr.ballst. did a perfection-'
1st* Job In the profligate fashion
which only rich Metro ran afford. (
If cost so much and la acknowl-
edged to be such an exceptional
feature that M-G-M now Is trying
it rut in five representative cities
with the idea of offering it every-
where at advanced prices.
•‘Boom Town” will be well worth
the extra tariff. I see no reason why
all pictures should be offered at
uniform prices any more than that
a Kaufman-Hart stage hit should
be presented at Minsky-Moron ad-
missions. But I do believe there is
a business moral to he drawn bv
Hollywood between the fantasMcal-
lv expensive star-studded epic and
the unconventional. *325 000 Great
MfOtnty •
The latter will be cherished
longer In the memory of the fans
will earn a vastly greater profit
will bring inestimable prestige to
worthy players and will be chalk-
ed up as a commercial and artistic
triumph.
