THEME FOR A PRACTICAL
COMMENCEMENT TALK
The commencement orator has been turned loose
on this year’s crop of high school graduates; and
while this in some ways is tough on the graduates. It
Is also getting to be pretty tough on the orator too.
The good old days of commencement addresses sre
gone with the snows of yestery ear
There was a time when haranguing a bevy of high
school graduates mas the softest of all soft jobs. All
the speaker had to do was remind his young audience
that this is a land of equal opportunity and that suc-
cess comes through hard work. Then after reciting
a fern well-chosen Incidents from the lives of Abraham
Lincoln. Thomas A. Edison and Henry Ford he could
resume his seat with the satisfaction that comes from
a job well done.
Nowadays It u i little different. Success still
comes through hard work—if you can get the work
and if the work doesn't evaporate after you get it.
Opportunity is still equal—unless you happen to
be one of the unlucky ones who get deposited on a
relief line or a WPA job And what happened to the
Fords and Edlsons when the country was young and
expanding may not have much bearing on the prob-
lems of youth afloat In a land that Is older and that
shows a frightening tendency to contract every so
often.
So what is the poor commencement orator to do?
He can't sing the old song or the youngster* will hoot
at him. What tune can he sing?
Perhaps his best bet would be to admit the worst
and then to offer that worst to the young graduate*
as a challenge. He might say something like this:
"It's a queer sort of world you are going out Into
and I can’t honestly tell you that you are going to find
It an easy one to handle. It is the kind of world that
invents machines to relieve man of drudgery and
then lets those machines deprive him of a chance to
make a living; the kind of world that destroys surplus
crop* while people are going hungry; that lets fac-
tories and workmen lie idle while men are suffering
fpr want of the things those factories and workmen
could produce; that seeks to cure the ills foisted cn It
by war by preparing for a bigger and more disastrous
war in the near future.
"Altogether a world like that is pretty cockeyed.
Yet the very- fact that it Is no cockeyed 1* your big
ehance. For a state of affairs like that isn't going
to last forever. There are going to be big change*
•nd the chances are going to be accomplished by
young people like yourself.
•'Sometime during the next few decades the world
is going to remake ltaelf. It is going to find some
wwy of avoiding starvation and want in the midst of
plenty. It is going to find some way of dodging the
mass suicide of war. Just how it is going to do these
things I have no idea; you are the people who are
going to dfcide that. The job will call for the best
brains courage and grit you can muster. You look
as if you have what It takes; good luck to you "
A commencement address along those lines might
not be orthodox but It might at least be better than
the old-fashioned string of empty platitudes.
ELECTIONEERING HAZARD
Paul V. McNutt. U. 8. high commissioner to the
Phillipine Commonwealth is an able man. Lika moat
able man. he la ambitious. It la commonly reported
that he would like to run for the presidency of the
United States come 1®40.
If that la correct. Commissioner McNutt has made
an unfortunate beginning on hie new job. For the
cable* tell how ha la insisting that at public functions
In Manila he. High Commissioner McNutt must be
toasted immediately after the President of the United
States and before the president of the Phillipine Com-
monwealth. Menus! Quezon.
Just why he should insist on his pre-eminence at
a time when the American government la formally
getting out of the islands is not clear. Nor is It clear
how such tactics will help to persuade the American
democracy that Mr. McNutt la proper presidential
timber.
GOOD POLICY ON HELIUM
Congress would be well-advised to adopt President
Roosevelt’s recommendation that America’s helium
gas be made available to foreign nations for use In
dirigibles.
Probably the only nation this would apply to would
be Oermany. Only Oermany seems to havs either
the ability or the will to do anything uaeful with
llghter-than-atr ahips. It had been eupposed that
the Germans had made these queer craft almost com-
pletely safe—until the Hlndenburg disaster proved
that no airship that uses lnflammsbls hydrogen gas
is safe.

EARLY DIAGNOSIS TREATMENT NEEDED
TO PREVENT THE SPREAD OF ARTHRITIS
Arthritis is an lnflamation of the joints it is
also railed rheumatism. It must however be dis-
tinguished from the type of rheumatism known ss
rheumatic fever which Is primarily a disease of
the heart.
The joints may be Infected by almost any kind
of a germ. Including those that cause gonorrhea
pneumonia and meningitis as well as all of the
ordinary forms of the streptococci and aotne of
the staphylococci.
Finally there seem to be cases of lnflamsttons
of the joints in which it ts difficult to determine
the presence of any germ.
Sometimes when e child suffers with scarlet
fever or some of the other ordinary Infectious
diseases there will be inflammations of the Jotnts
that last Just a week or so with some pain. Some-
times in typhoid fever there may be inflammation
of the joints.
In people who are sensitive to various foods
or protein substances the reaction may be asso-
ciated with an Inflammation of the Jonlts.
These types of acute inflammation are not
however the same as chronic Inflammation of the
joints commonly called chronic arthritis or rheu-
matism.
When arthritis is due to an infection of the
Joints by the germ that causes gonorrhea after it
has already ca'ised the venereal disease the con-
dition must be taken care of and treated accord-
ing to the particular type of germ as well as with
all of the usual treatment for Joint inflammation.
This applies to pneumonia and to meningitis
• • •
In the kind of inflammation of the joint* that
ia known a* rheumatoid arthritis there 1* a aerie*
of symptom* which are definite and which art
not related to other types of Inflammation.
Very frequently thi* type of rheumatism be-
gins with swell mg of the middle fingers of each
hand. The swellings do not peralat but come
and go. There may also be Inflammations of the
wrist and of the toes.
Sometime* the condition continues to get worse
but in other caaea it stops and doe* not make
much progress If it does progress the inflam-
mations move upward so that later the wrist the
elbows and shoulders and eventually the spine
may be infected.
In this type of arthritis it is not infrequent to
find somewhere in the body a focus of infection
usually in the tonsil* ar.d In the teeth but some-
times also in the prostrate In man. in the appen-
dix. gallbladder or sinuses
It is. therefore highly desirable in every case
of this kind to have a diagnosis made as soon as
possible and then to treat the condition actively
to prevent Its advancement

DEAR MISS CHATFIELD:
My husband is ont of those men
who can’t get any idea of what it
takes out of a woman to clean a six-
room house and prepare three whop-
ping meals a day for a family of
four. He is always reminding me of
this friend or that who has time on
her hands snd plenty of pep to go
out with her husband for an eve-
nings gaiety. He doesn t seem to
take in that these women either
neglect their homes and children or
have less to do than I. I take great
pride In my home keep it so spic
and span that everyone comments
on it. Consequently my day begins
at 6:45 and ends at i:80. What
with guests my husband and chil-
dren bring in. there aren't many
days when we don't have extra peo-
ple In the house And so my life is
spent. Yet my husband thinks I
should turn off all this work and
then frolic with him. Isn’t he un-
reasonable? N. R T.
ANSWER:
Maybe from your standpoint he is
unreasonable and it Is quite clear
that from his standpoint you are
"pot-bound.” You know what hap-
pens to a flower when it becomes
pot-bound? After the roots have
used up all the space in the pot
consumed all the soli food the plant
gets hard and woody ceases lo put
out shoots and ceases to flower. The
same thing happens to a woman who
shuts herself up in four walls and
expends all her thoughts and energy
on cleaning and cooking. Let your-
self out. or your husband will out-
grow you.
It Is true that a man who enjoys
the comfort and orderliness of a
well-run house has small concep-
tion of the head hand and footwork
that are behind the scenes. The
smoother the wheels of the machin-
ery that turn out the delectable din-
ners. his clean linen and his at-
tractive living quarters the less he
thinks of the motive power that
makes them go around. Wonder if
it isn't also true that the woman
has Just as small conception of what
he is putting out at the office in or-
der to produce the comfortable liv-
ing?
Both what she does and what he
does and what he does are means to
an end: to bind themselves together
as good companions to make a hap-
py home for the children to provide
for the future of the children and
to enjoy life while the days are going
by. Unfortunately many a couple
gets so absorbed In the means that
they forget the end. Sometimes the
man lets his pleasure and (Hide In
making money blind him to every-
thing else. Sometimes the woman
In her passion for doing her house-
keeping Job to perfection forgets
that the husband married her for
companionship and that he will be
critical of anything or anybody that
cuts In on It. even his own children.
It Is a hard matter for a woman
to distribute her time and talents
in such a way that husband chil-
dren and home will be taken care
of. Unless she's a bom executive
a whls of a worker emotionally
well-balanced and a three In one

thing or somebody will be neglected.

«l—mm A-—A
lion s minimum wage - maximum
hour-child labor bill la tha measure
Roosevelt has had moat in mind dur-
ing his war on tha supreme court.
If tha court can swallow this ona
It will have removed the most effec-
tive barriers which once wars up
against tha New Deal program. And
federal regulation will have taken
its longest stride.
Many of the barriers have been
knocked down In the past few
months Tha big ona remaining
legal experts say. la the Hammer
vs. Dagenhart five to four decision
which in 1918 knocked out a law
prohibiting products made by child
labor from moving In Interstate
commerce.
You could hear the boys whisper-
ing repeatedly about Hammer vs.
Dagenhart as they hammered and
sawed on the Black-Connery bill.
Roosevelt in his message to cong-
ress. quoted the dissenting opinion
of the late Justice Holmes in tha
Hammer case But ha didn't quote
tha deciding majority opinion. And
that's what the court must reverse
If the New Deal Is to hmvs Its wage-
hour-child la bo rlaw. Tha present
proposal would bar from interstate
commerce products manufactured
by children under alxteed and by
workers subjected to "oppressive"
wage and hour conditions as defined
by congress
“The goods shipped are in them-
selves harmless” said Mr. Juetlca
Day In the majority opinion theraby
distinguishing them from such Items
as liquor whoa# shipment into dry
•tatea was barred by the Webb-Ken-
yon act.
Production was not subject to fed-
eral control. Day insisted and "the
making of goods and the mining of
coal are not eommerce.” Conse-
quently. he held the production of
articles intended 'or interstate com-
merce was "an Invasion by the fed-
eral power of tha control of a mat-
ter purely local tn character."
And that reasoning still Itands
although the child labor law ap-
plied only to the welfare of exploited
children and the proposed legisla-
tion la baaed on the claim that fed-
eral regulation of business Is neces-
sary for protection of the entire eco-
nomic system
“ w W
Getting Clm* 1® t in*
The court ha* been gliding close
to Hammer vr Degenhart In recent
decisions however end It would
seem to require no greet stretch of
reasoning to get around It if five
Justices »ere so minded.
In the recent Kentucky Whip and
Collar case wherein the court up-
held by unanimous decision the Mt-
huret-Summere ect prohibiting <hpv
ment of convict-made goods Into
states having leva against such
goods. Chief Justice Hughes opined:
“The congress Is exercising the
power confided tw it by the constitu-
tion is es free as the states to recog-
nise the fundamental interests of
free lsbor ’’
Roosevelt cribbed the line when
he said in his message to congress
that “congress may exercise that
power (to regulate commerce among
the states) to recognise end protect
the fundamental interacts of free
labor "
Anyway the !tew Deal legalists
say that ought to help upeet Ham-
mer vs Degenhart. They also cits
the majority reasoning In decisions
validating the Wagner labor aet.
Hughes in the Jones Si Laughlin
opinion recognised denial of collec-
tive bargaining as a possible means
of obstructing Interstate commerce
but carefully avoided reference to
•ages and working conditions.
Hughe* did say however:
• The feet that employee here con-
cerned were engaged in production
la not determinative."
Attorneys for the corporation had
insisted that It was.
• • •
Not Certain to Pass
If the bill passes the makeup of
the court when the act comes up for
the final judicial test may determine
the fete of this drastic proposal.
There Is no real assurance that
the three liberal Justices—Brand els
Stone and Cardoao—would uphold
it There ia plenty of doubt about
Chief Justice Hughes and Justice
Roberts. Justice McReynolda. But-
ler and Sutherland almost eertalnlv
will vote against it if they are still
on the court when it comes up al-
though it is probable that whatever
men Roosevelt picks to suecee.. Jus-
tice Van Deranter would vote to de-
clare It valid. •
