Boulder And their laughter and their love dam, construction of which will be authorized If the Swing-Johnson bill now before congress is passed In this Dr. Lorenz, the famous orthopedic surgeon who has recently come to our country, -was Interviewed by a newspaper reporter soon after his arrival. Knowing the universal Interest in weight reduction, tlie reporter asked the doctor If he had any cure for obesity. Ills answer, according to the paper was this: "If you are so constituted to be fat, you must be fat; and if you are inclined to be thin, you can eat to the point of indigestion and still not be fat No medicine taken to either lose or gain in weight Is of any use, and I do think American ladies are star-ving themselves to a point where ther health is Impaired in their efforts to remain thin." Now the doctor is a great authority on orthopedic surgery, but if his opinions on weight control, as expressed in the interview, are correct, he ia no wiser on the subject than the uninformed layman. And because his professional standing gives weight to his opinions, I think his giving out information on the subject is regrettable.

There were too many thousands who thought they were constituted to be fat or had Inherited their fat, who have learned by going on a proper reduction diet that this Is not true; and there are still a great many more thousands whose ideas accord with the doctor's and who now will be Have a value far above Any gain which I might, know.

As the nature of the control part of the new radio bill becomes officially intimated for the first time, the department of commerce goes Its own lugubrious way in announcing to radio fandom that more stations have been licensed to broadcast and more have changed their wave lengths and power. With all the promise and further congestion this connotes, it announces eleven new stations, three wave lengths changes, two to higher channels, and one increase in power. The radio bill which has been drafted for the conference committee's consideration it has been leaned from an official source, provides for 'a commission vested with discretionary power as to designation of nower. allocation of wave It will be the highest dam in the world, 690 feet high, and the water Queer Quirks of Nature forest the areas where American soldiers went into battle ten years ago.

The trees are silent diplomats abroad, and an effective foreign policy. REVOLTING A new play produced on the Berlin stags has aroused in Germany a general and heated discussion of that debatable question, so widely discussed here a year or so ago, whether society is justified and duty bound to "benevolently eliminate" physically deformed and mentally deficient infanta. The question crops up periodically in public conversation, more firmly rooted in their beliefs, and therefore will make no effort to control their disorder.

Aside from the question of looks, there is the much graver question of greatly impaired health eventually, and early deaths. Joslln and other dia 4vwxw betic specialists are teaching us that at least 75 per cent of diabetios after middle age, are obese, and that preventing obesity will prevent this type of diabetes. Certain insurance companies and. numerous doctors have shown us that of all the causes of hlghfblood pressure and with the possibility of llllillh -tM I apoplexy obesity is the most consistent, and the reduction of obesity in variably reduces this blood pressure. Overeating, the cause of obesity, is lengths and determination of broadcast hours, with the department of commerce administering its deci also one of the chief causes for hardening of the arteries (arteriosclerosis) with its resultant kidney and heart disease and apoplexy (Osier).

It simply means that the patient is not exercising sufficiently to care for all the energy foods taken, and the exceus is stored up as fat.

His first glimpse of a hen and chickens aroused his sporting blood, and although petted, spoiled and well-fed, he was never known to resist anything in the poultry line. sion. Utmost secrecy on the control feature has been maintained by the committee, but a few definite facts came out when Senator Dill told Senator McKellar, Tennessee, on the floor of the senate: "The tentative agreement as made provides that the commission have certain powers, very largely of a Judicial nature, and the commerce department shall have certain powers In administering the decisions of the commission and carrying out the orders and regulations of the commission."

As for the American "ladies" starving themselves in their efforts to remain thin, many of them are dieting In a laudable effort to get somewhere within hailing distance of normal weight; but I don't believe there are many of them starving themselves to remain thin. The doctor was partly right on one point, and that is.

that no medicines hide their faith or discard it, for they lack the courage to be their honest selves In the face of scorn. Young folk running wild; the in Business World Today taken to lose weight are of any use. He is not wholly right for most of the nostrums that are advertised to reduce weight will, if persisted in, cause a loss of weight, which, however, will be accompanied by a loss of health. With relatively few exceptions, no patient is incurable, land the thoughtful physician seldom declares dogmatically that any one case is beyond cure. The history of mankind, not alone the history of medicine, is full of well authenticated leases of marvelous recoveries from supposedly incurable diseases and natal deficiencies.

Coldly scientific eugenists will continue to advance the 'Spartan argument that only by the "benevolent elimination" of the unfit can society produce a race of supermen. But civilization has not progressed far enough or progressed too far for any considerable number of persons to make it more than a subject of conversation.

Transportation men all over the country are watching the New York transit situation closely in order to take advantage of methods that may be worked out to relieve congestion of crowded areas. Another in the long list of plans suggested was presented here today. Undoubtedly buses will play a large part in solving the problems here as well as in other cities, but continued postponements have delayed action. More than a third of the electric railways of the United States now are operating more buses in connec-tionrwlth their rail lines, according to Walter White, bus and truck manufacturer. This is confirmed by the American Electric Railway association, which states that of 900 electric railways, 339 are operating a total of 6,556 buses over 14,899 miles of route.

The association survey shows an increase of 88 companies, 2,000 buses and 2800 miles of route since October 1, 1925. The present figure compare with 16 companies and 73 cranks, fanatics and volunteer mes-slahs, all experience has proved that the teaching of sound religion to children makes very good citizens.

States to Share Water This compact provides for an equitable distribution of the waters of the Colorado river after the construction of Boulder Dam, and for a Just allocation of the power-rights from the hydro-electric power to be generated. Seven and one-half acre feet of water will go to tho four upper-basin states, and 8,500,000 acre feet to the three lower basin states annually, with 4,000.000 acre feet reserved for the use of Mexico, which has a claim to the waters of the river, since It empties into the Gulf of Lower California In Mexican territory. The terms of the seven state compact, which has been called the first inter-state treaty in the history of the United States, have been ratified by six of the states, Arizona alone withholding her consent. If Arizona falls to ratify, the compact will be considered binding without her.

As long as we cannot remould the -world nearer to our heart's desire, there la some consolation in telling it what Is the matter with it What "freedom of speech" really means is "freedom to find fault" And for it men will gladly die. There never has been much objection to anyone's speaking until he begins to find fault. If a man were prevented from finding fault -with his meals, his preacher and his newspaper, he would feel that his personality had been squeezed down to an Infinitesimal part of the hole in the doughnut. We don't mind if the politicians negate our vote, but when anyone tries to muzzle our innate right to tell people what's wrong, we rise up and do battle in the cause of freedom. A motion picture producer In Los Angeles once told me the writer of the Joy with which people -welcome the chance to find fault at "previews." It is the custom among the studios to send out films to nearby towns for a showing before a final revision for distribution is made.

Such showings are called "previews," and post cards are distributed to the audience for them to send in criticisms and suggestions for improving the picture. Almost without exception they avail themselves of the opportunity to find fault. One doesn't like the hero's haircut, another thinks the heroine looks too old for the part, another thinks a "close up" should have been a "long hot," etc, ad Infinitum and to the Joy of the postcard ers. All writers whose work appears regularly discover the enjoyment people get out of finding fault. An.

error in grammar brings a flood of letters; a misquoted line a deluge. In this latter there is another element. Finding a mistake where no mistake is supposed to be, adds a puzzle solving thrill. It Is like finding a face hidden among the leaves of a tree or in the lines of a cloud. All In all, the chief back: clapper of the world's ego Is the ability to ifind fault.
