Show Russia, not willing to be found unprepared un-prepared i war comes, is training not only men, but also women and children, In the use of firearms.- In addition, millions of young Russians study aeronautics, in preparation for flying, and thousands are trained as actual flyers. In Switzerland, every able bodied man is taught to use a gun; possesses one, and, at intervals, must prove that it Is in good working order, and that lie still knows how to use It. Uncle Sam might train twenty thousand thou-sand or more young Americans oa pilots, paying them for their time, summoning them once in so often to prove that they are still able to fly. We shall need pilots, some day. When the Japanese went Into Manchuria, Man-churia, they knew what they were going go-ing for, and they are getting It. Their tax collectors are actually collecting, refusing the offers of bribes, which had been one way of avoiding taxation. We know that the power of the moon lifts the tides In big oceans, small lakes, or half filled teacups. A deep German scientist discovers that the moon also creates "a terrestrial tide," raising the solid crust of the earth, and lowering It. Mountains, hills and valleys are all raised an$ lowered, and we don't even know it. We should be grateful to our moon, for without its tides, the oceans would become stagnant, and the earth perhaps, per-haps, uninhabited. This Week bj ARTHUR BRISBANE Do You Know the Words? Money Made Quickly Suppression Fails Parrots and Sheep Fat Congressman Fuller, of Arkansas, says every civil Bervice employe should prove his ability to "sing, recite, re-cite, or write from memory" the words of the Star Spangled Banner. He must know them all by heart. Does President Hoover know by heart all the words of that estimable song? Does Congressman Fuller know them? What precentaga of the Senate and House members know them? A popular song says those words are known only to the Armenians and the Greeks. Testimony before the Senate banking and currency committee shows that you can make money rapidly in Wall Street, if you know how. One little ' group operating a pool in Radio stock, made five million dollars in a week. A big concern paid $23,500,000 to another concern, that represented a total investment of 11,750,000, and 190,000,000 worth of a certain stock, with a well known name back of it, was sold to the public at $52 a share. It is worth ?1 a share now. The financial answer to the question: ques-tion: "where are the snows of yesteryear? yester-year? Is "they have melted." The House of Representatives Ways and Means Committee votes 20 to 4 against legalizing information concerning con-cerning birth control. Therefore the old system will continue. The rich, that could afford to have children, can get the birth control Information In-formation from first class doctors, and will continue not to have many children. The poor, that can not afford many children, including poor women married mar-ried to drunkards and morons, will be told that it is wrong to Interfere with the plans of Providence. If they ask why Providence doesn't interfere with the special information for the prosperous class, they will be told: "That is not your business." From the skin of an embryonic baby ba-by mouse, so small that It Isn't born yet, scientists at the Roakefeller Institute In-stitute take a substance that stops cancerous growth in a full sized mouse. Rockefeller scientists, constantly con-stantly fighting disease, discover in the skin of unborn mammals. Including Includ-ing ourselves, a substance that regulates regu-lates growth, not only in cancers, but all growth compelling a finger, or an arm, for instance, to stop growing, when it is just the right length. We are truly "fearfully and wonderfully won-derfully made." (,1932, by King Fatuxi Syndicact, IlK.) In Turkey of late, thanks to world depression and other causes, including includ-ing offenses against religious prejudice, preju-dice, taking the veil from the faces of women, the fez from the heads of men, permitting statues and portraits that Mohammed forbade, suicides have been numerous. Kemal Pasha's Government ordered newspapers to print no suicide news, for fear of encouraging the habit, and now Constantinople newspapers are all prosecuted for publishing the suicide sui-cide of Kreuger, Swedish financier. Some newspapers and public men In the United States have treated our depression as Turkey treats suicide news, thijlking they can cure It by Ignoring it. They cannot. Plenty of light, free d.Vscussion, all the facts are what every situation calls for. i You know those parrot-like birds that lived peaceably on insects until sheep were brought to Australia, then the birds ate the insects on the sheep. V Next, accidentally, they discovered , fat on the sheep kidneys just below ! the wool, changed from insects to sheep's kidney fat, and killed thousands thous-ands of sheep. As with those Australian birds, so with crime. It passes from one thing to another. |
