note that farm prices have increased 37 percent with-
in the last 13 months, while the increase in general
commodity prices has been only 21.8 percent. At
least some of this increase can be attributed to the
inflation of the American dollar, so about all the
$180,000,000 accomplished was to aid farmers and
their creditors.
Radio Cruisrs
Another thing about New York that quickens the
pulse is a midnight ride in one of the 400 radio crui-
sers Police Commissioner John F O'Ryan has nos-
ing through the streets.
There arc three cruisers to each precinct, and since
the commissioner is an old army man, his method
is to play the old army game—in other words, the
bracket system
For instance, the operator, who follows the pro-
gress of each car on his chart, suddenly bawls a num-
ber into the ether waves (Crimes are specified by
numbers.) The bracket system is this One car goes
directly to the scene of the crime, and after the sig-
nal is given a car is on the spot within a very few
seconds. The other two cars approach the scene on
parallel streets, thus cutting down chances of an easy
escape.
One of the general's pet theories is that criminals
are like rats and will not flourish unless they have
holes. Drive them Into the open and their organiza-
tion falls to pieces what he would like to do is re-
vive a system the Greeks had of ostracizing unde-
sirables. •_ i - i

a girl at that.
She is Betty Jacobsen, once,a
stenographer, who was so excited
by typing the manuscript of Villiers'
"Grain Race" that she finally ob-
tained permission to ship on the
"Parma" in February, 1933 The
“Parma" won the race and Miss
Jacobsen, back in New York, sat
down to write her experiences.
She had done the job well in "A
Girl Before the Mast." There is not
too much of gush about the beauty
of tall ships, but there is a sense of
that beauty, which is better. And
the story itself is told with reserve
and a human warmth quite rare in
so young and inexperienced a writ-

LEE SIMMONS REFUSES TO TAKE A CHANCE
Lee Simmons is the head of the Texas "prison sys-
tem He has an important poet. He has been a tre-
mendous success—all things considered. He was ask-
ed by friends to announce for governor subject to
the action of the July primary,. He refused to be
drafted. He said he "had his hands full” as prison
head and had no intention of becoming a candidate
for any office He is wise. When the showdown comes
there will be two battlelines, Simmons is popular and
able, but he knows Texas politics. He knows the Anal
showdown will be two big bandwagons and perhaps
five or six heelbarrow chasers pushing their vehicles

-------------MUSELE PAIN-
" Muscle pains are called by a
variety of names. Thus, they may
be termed lumbago, sciatica, neu-
ritis, or by such descriptive names
as Charley-horse, wry neck, glass
arm and tennis elbow.
Certain toxic substances appar-
ently have a preference for muscle
tissue and for the tissues which
connect muscles to the bones They
set up inflammatory reactions in
these regions and thus give rise
topuin,stirmnessanettmttnttomof
movement. -
The toxic nature of such muscles
and joint pains can be appreciat-
ed by the fact that co-existing
with them are such other evi-
dences of intoxication as headache,
nerve patns, and lbw grade tem-
peratures.
The toxins responsible may be
bacterial in nature, arising from
such foci of infection as abscessed
teeth. Infected tonsils and in-
fections in the various sinuses in
the head, as well as from Infec-
tions elsewhere in the body—in
the prostate, appendix, gallblad-
der, kidney or lungs.
The metabolic toxins may arise
from faulty intestinal digestion,
defective liver function, the liver
being an important organ of de-
toxication and delayed colon elim-
ination.
The treatment of toxic muscle
pain calls for the removal of all
possible sources and foci ef bac-
terial infection. The teeth, tonsils
and sinuses of the head should
be carefully examined and defects
corrected. Improvement tn colon
elimination should be aimed at by
modifying the diet.
This means in most instances a
reduction in the amount of food
eaten, limiting thereby the amount
of undigested carbohydrates and
proteins that reach the lower bow-
el.
Colonic irrigation. the use of milk
sugar in the place of can sugar,
and drinking milk containing aci-
dophilus bacteria, help overcome
so-called intestinal intoxication.
Mild cases can be benefited by
simple improvements In hygiene
and diet. The more stubborn and
serious ones need careful and ex-
pert medical treatment.

"Seven Gothic Tales" deserve read-

Because in these days of concen-
atration upon every-day problems
in literature, one can pick up a book
on every shelf that calls a spade a
spade in earthly ianguage. But it
is seldom that an author not only
gilds the spade but successfully palls
it a piece of parlor furniture.
Dinesen apparently is a Dane, al-
though the publisher has made him
a somewhat mysterious figure, quite
in keeping with the book itself. The
stories are extensions of the Ger-
man romantic style, with flavors
added from half a dozen other styles.
They are like nothing else of recent
years.
He tells of an old chevalier, who
recall* the one successful love of
his life and ends contemplating a
skull that he believes is that of the
girl. He also tells of four amazing
characters marooned by rising flood
waters in an Danish barloft, who
spend the night telling their stories
—and what stories.
He tells of a preverse young Of-
ficer who attempts to save himself
from disgrace by marriage—and
ends by turning a "nun" into a
monkey, and vice versa. In fact,

When Raymond Hamilton chose
Denton County as, a site for to
depredations, he met his downfall.
There may be argument as to who
is entitled to the most credit for
hb capture, but the fact that is of
the greatest interest to the public
is that he is in custody. There is
glory enough for all, and all who
participate in any way in bring-
ing about his apprehension are to
be congratulated. Quick thinking
and acting at Lewisville, both on
part, at the officials at the

pursued the fleeing bandit will
have to be given major credit for
starting work that so quickly brought
Into the hands of the law a des-
perado who had long defied the
law and who had managed to keep
out at its toils for many weeks.
We are glad that Hamilton has
been captured, and we are further
pleased with the fact that Denton
County men demonstrated how
quickly they can act in an emer-
gency and that even as notorious
a gunman as Hamilton was not
able to commit a crime in this
county and get away with it. Quick
court action in this case has been
promised. This is what the people
want and this is what Hamilton
deserves.

Just to prove that NRA isn't all sour apples, Sen-
ator Robert Wagner tells of what it did for a Georgia
town of about 250 persons, located 50 miles from
the ocean.
Only two persons in the village had ever seen the
sea. Nearly everybody worked in the textile mill,
sometimes at wages of *3 a week. Hours were so long
that when Sunday came the community was too tir-
ed—as well as too poor—to go anywhere.
Suddenly minimum wages and maximum hours
gave the workers two free days a week and more
money than they ever dreamed of: The flrat thing
they did was charter a little train.
The whole town piled on and went for a couple
of days at the seashore, wallowing in the water and
yelling and shouting their excitement until the train
took them back Sunday night.

' WASHINGTON—American aviators soon may be
shooting one another down in South American jun-
gles, for inside the State Department It's considered
better than an even bet that Colombta and Peru will
soon be at war over Leticia.
The possibility of Americans battling one another
comes as result of employment by the government

. Henry was shy and withdrawn
and seemed-to mate* no friends.
' If he passed any one In the
street he looked at the ground
(.nd pretended not to see him and
al a party or any gathering of
children he was very apt to be
found lurking in a remote corner
or playing by himself.
The secret of his aloofness was
guessed only when he began school
and it was found that he could
not see the blackboard. Then he
was taken to the oculist.
Thefrstdayhewore his new
glasses his mother said, “Are they
all right? Do you see better?" The
answer was prompt. “Yes, things
don't all have fuzzy edges now."
Many children are practically
cut oft from the world by imper-
reet vision. They do not realize
it, for they have no standard of
comparison and so no way of
knowing what they should see.
They are afraid of looking at peo-
ple because they can not recog-
nize them at a dstance, and this
lack of cordiality is taken for rude-
ness or a preference for one's own
company.
The child is thrown in on him-
self. and by the time the cause
rof his trouble is found, he may
have developed a selt-aumciency
and an Indifference to companion-
ship which he will never outgrow
Furthermore, having been unable
to take part tn games, he finds
himself so far behind the others
in competitive sports that he never
has the courage to take them up
even after his vision has been cor-
rected. Tennis, football, all the
names which require quick vision
will be lost to him.
The sooner the child has his
eyes examined by a good oculist,
the better for him, not only for
his school work, but also for his
social Afe.
The risk of placing a child under
a handicap is too great for delay.

ALAMO FLAG MAY COME HOME
ETTorts are being made to restore to Texas the bat-
Ue fag of the Alamo which was captured by the
Mexicans under Santa Anns 98 years ago. This
treasured relic is in the National Museum at Mexico
City, and Mexican archives attest to It* authenticity.
Texas has in Ito State Museum the flag at Santa
Anna that was captured in the battle of San Jacinto,
and the proposal has been made that Texas might
well effect an exchange. The assistance of the Wash-
igton authorities and Ambassador Daniels is being
sought in the negotiations, which will take more than
■ a year
it would be a fine thing if the Alamo flag could
be presented to Texas and the San Jacinto flag pre-
-geented to Mexico some time in 1936 with appropriate
eeremonies co-incident with the centennial celebra-
tion. Two such presentations would be a friendly ges-
ture that would strengthen stiu more the friendly
relations between Texas and Mexico
Years ago at has bees proved that Santa Anna
. wasn't acting for the Mexican people when the
Alamo butchery occurred, and his acta weren’t con-
s.4oned by officials The proposed exchange of flags
aptured by each side nearly 100 yean ago would
be a ntung climax to the events commemorating the
hundredth anniversary of the faU of the Alamo and
Hie Battle of San Jacinto, and would be a token of
the removal of the last vestige at antagonism be-
tween the people of a great state and a great nation.
