I was one of a group of newspaper men arguing about who was the best reporter who ever worked around here. One was holding out for Roy Burton, old-tini- ,5' ' s' x ' A v , - , ) whom he had v " er known on the Brooklyn Eagle in the nineties. Burton, he said, was the n best and digger, the most fearless, and the most gifted in fanning up a story out of nothing at all. He knew make-utoo, said the oldster. The diligent reporter has been duly rewarded. He is the Sir Pomeroy Burton whose magnificent French chateau the duke and duchess of Windsor were looking over recently. With the Northclifte papers in London, he became a as be transformed British journalism with daring American techniques. He became a British citizen in 1914 and was knighted in 1923. In addition to his vast newspaper interests, he is a magnate of electric power and utilities. He was a printers devil on his fathers newspaper in Youngstown, Ohio, arid, at the age of twelve, was knocking about country printshops in Ohio on the same job. He became a compositor on the Brooklyn Eagle. Hearing of a vacancy on the news staff, he persuaded the city editor to give him a try at reporting. He hired evening clothes to cover a society function. There, Colonel Hester, owner of Boss Liked the Eagle, was Youth in tremendously im-pressed with the Hired Tails personable young man with whom he was talking, and thought he had met him somewhere. Young Burton did not remind the colonel that he had seen the young man in a printers apron a few days before. He became city editor and managing editor of the Eagle, held important executive positions with the World and the New York Journal and was taken to England by Lord Northcliffe in 1904. Ten years later, he owned all but a few of the Daily Mail shares not owned by Lord Northcliffe. In the World war, he virtually headed the organization of British propaganda, and many of the most stories were damaging attributed to him. His enemies charged that he had debauched British journalism with degrading American sensationalism." His friends insisted he had enlivened and regenerated it.

From a Wisconsin crossroads, he rammed around the country in newspaper and financial brawls, and, in his old age, just through sheer animal spirits, started plugging a tunnel through the Rocky mountains, at Georgetown, Colo. He was flattened by the '93 depression and died soon after, with nothing to show for his life's work but a hole in the ground. Then it was discovered that the tunnel had gouged into fabulous mineral wealth in Kelso mountain. Eight years ago, the tunnel went on through the mountain, as the Moffatt tunnel. leg-ma- Hfo . . p, multi-millionair- e, In colleges throughout America, academic careers are closing for thousands of seniors.

Investigation disclosed that their thyroid glands were abnormally large and abnormally low in iodine. When iodine was administered to the mothers, the young pigs were born normal. Scientists reasoned that if goiter could be prevented in animals, it could be prevented in humans, and undertook the now famous census in Akron, Ohio. A study was made of the thyroid glands of all school girls from the fifth to the twelfth grades. Almost 50 per cent were found to have enlarged thyroid glands. The girls were given small doses of sodium iodide dissolved in drinking water at given periods over 2Vi years. At the end of that time, investigators found that of 2,000 pupils, only 5 developed thyroid enlargement. Of the same number not treated, 500 showed enlargement.
