"War Profits" were reflected in newspaper headlines.

The Associated Press reported that Michigan's tool and die plants were rapidly going on a 24-hour daily pro­duction schedule, as orders poured in from Washington for preparedness aircraft output needed to back up our neutrality stand. Residents of Lansing were assured that the city's industrial system was in a better position to receive benefits from war munition orders than in 1914-1918.

Governor Dickinson addressing the Michigan Methodist Conference at Lansing last week asserted that the clergy were lax in their duties and partially responsible for the preva­lence of evil, crime, disease and pauperism. He said that the church had failed tQ strike a t the roots of these evils in the home and, neicrh-borhood. He urged the clergy to bear down on bridge parties, dancing, golf games, Sunday picnics and liquor drinking which he claimed were the basis of wrong doing. The governor

has the zeal of a crusader of old and is booked up to make some 8 more addresses. However we doubt much that he will abolish any of the above evils for the reason that a majority of people see no evils in them and do not care to go back to the days of the Puritans.

The war spirit in Canada, who declared war on Germany is getting red hot. A tax will be levied on all incomes to defray the war expenses. Felons are being offered their choice of enlisting in the army or goinjc to prison and those serving light sen­tences are also being offered the same choice. Thousands of Ai er-icans are said to be enlisting in the Canadian army. Two daily progr ms broadcast by Reverend Fr. Coughlin over the Canadian station CKLW have been cancelled as the priests remarks were offensive to some of the listeners.

DARK — HORNSHAW

The marriage of Miss Mary Dark and George Hornshaw took place at St. Mary's church in Pinckney at solemn high mass on Saturday mor­ning, Rev. James Carolan officiating The bride entered on the arm of her brother, Vincent, who gave the bride away. Her sister, Harriet Dark, of Detroit acted as bridesmaid and Jno. Hornshaw, brother of the groom was best man.

The bride chose for her wedding dress blue taffeta with a white hat, gloves and shoes and wore a cor­sage of white gladiolas and gypso-phelia and carried her prayer book. The bridesmaid wore a black crepe dress with white collar and cuffs and wore a corsage of white gladiolas and gypsophelia. The groom and the best man wore black suits.

Following the ceremony a wedding breakfast was served by the family of the bride at her home to relatives and friends. After which the newly weds left on an auto trip through northern Michigan. On their return they will reside in Pinckney. Both young people a r e very popular here arid the Dispatch in behalf of their many friends extendi congratulations

Governor has refused to accept two tickets for ringside seats to the Joe Louis-Bob Pastor fight on the grounds that prize fighting is bru­tal. However, the governor's hands are tied and he unable to do any­thing to prevent the fight. It was not always thua. In 1910 at the time of the Johnson-Jeffries cham­pionship fight the promoters had a hard time finding a location for it as most states including Michigan forbid prize fighting. Finally Cal­ifornia where such fights had been previously held was selected and the arena built. Then the pressure was brought to bear on Governor Gill­ette and he refused to allow the fight to be held there. It was moved to Reno, Nevada. Came the world war and a liberalizing of the att i t­ude on boxing so that now it is legal in about every state in the union.

The DUK.! of Windsor again made the f.-or*. pages last week in this coun fry as a result of hia return to Kngland a ' tcr ,i three and one-half year exile in France. English papers however, gave it scant notice, only about ten words. For some reason the commentators ignored the point that he is leaving France where the fighting is for England, where the fighting is not.

PORTAGE LAKE LAND OWNERS MEET

The people owning land on Port­age Lake held a big meeting a t the Newport Bathing Beach, bath house at Portage Lake Saturday night. The purpose of the meeting was to arrive a t some conclusion as to what water level should be maintained for the lake. This seems to be a difficult problem to arrive at on account of the different levels of the lake fron­tage. For instance a level which would be satisfactory for Baughn Bluff would flood Portage Lake shores and Bock's subdivision which slopes down to the lake. Th« pro­perty owners each contributed a dol­lar for expenses. Earl Baughn was elected president, WBL Mntbtrtnch, vice president, and F. sec-treas. The conservation sion wm be contacted and a

Becoming Designs Smartly Individual

I F YOU take a large size, then you'LI find 1806 one of the most

becoming dresses you ever put on! The long, s l im l ines of the paneled skirt make your hips look much narrower, and the bodice gathers g ive correct ease over the bust. With its touch of lace, this will be very smart for bridge par­ties, luncheons and club affairs. Make it of flat crepe, thin wool and, later on, sheer velvet.

and hope for s o m e future

Spartacus to lead us into a return engagement . The phrase, "the con­temporaneousness of the past ," is , I believe, Dr. Charles Beard's . Along with Dr. Beard's book, "The Rise of American Civilization," it has reminded this onlooker that no madman ever has wrecked the world and that the creat ive and hu­mane spirit has never failed. His­tory did not sustain Lord Grey when, in 1914, he said. "The lights of the world have gone out, and I doubt if they ever will be lit in our l i fet ime."

In the spirit of these mediat ions, this department will, in the forth­coming dark days , keep a sharp e y e out for lamplighters , men of creat ive intelligence, and their names will be carried on this mast-head whenever possible.

For a start, here's Edaard Benes , former president of Czecho-Slovakia, an old story in personality columns, but news today as a wise, ca lm spirit in a world of howling demagogues . The belch of the guns in Poland was answered almost to the min­ute by his book, "Democracy Today and Tomorrow." Here is what he s a y s about "the end of civil ization": "We hear very often the slogan

that war or revolution in Europe wil l mean the end of human civil ization. That is a mistake. M o d e m civil iza­

tion cannot be

destroyed. One can destroy in one country, through war or

revolution, s o m e of the remarkable monuments of human culture and civil ization, ancient and modern; but the present organization of the world does not allow anybody to de­stroy human civilization. Human civilization is, first of all, the moral conception of modern mankind, al­though including, of course, all eco­nomic values , all achievements of technological progress, all great Cultural monuments , buildings, cit­ies, universit ies, l ibraries, m u s e u m s of art and sc i ence ; many of them are of inestimable value, and could, of course, be destroyed in a great catastrophe. And that would be a loss which could never be replaced. But that does not m e a n the destruc­tion of human civilization. The hu­man spirit, in its great creative pow­er, having saved in innumerable places the results of modern sc ience , technology and progress—material and moral—will continue in any case its great creat ive work."

There is no bland optimism in Mr. Benes ' book. He invokes no e a s y formulas and see* salvation only in the col lect ive work and intell igence of men of good will—in desperate endeavors, perhaps, but sure to win in the end because they a lways have.

At another moment of tension, when the "end of civi l ization" seemed near, I r e m e m b e r talking to the great Dr. Masaryk, Mr. Benes ' intellectual and political mentor. He curtly refused to discuss the par­ticularized rights and aspirations of Czecho-Slovakia.

"We could state them only in terms of world moral i ty and jus­t i ce ," he said. "If we are right in thus conceiving onr undertak­ings , we m a y be assured that they will prevail . If our hopes are not so based, they should not prevai l ." Without a hint of bitterness for

powers R e c r e a n t to their obligations to his country, or to its assai lant , Mr. Benes puts his hope for freedom

and democra-O O M Hopes on World Justice And Morality

cy — and for Czecho • Slova­kia — in this s a m e wider

context, and he is calmly assured of the high destiny of human per­sonality because "This is the na­ture of man and of human society."

Mr. Benes is unique among states­men in that he did not resort to any single trick of the demagogue. In fact, he expressed and displayed contempt for such artifice. Fragile in person, careless in dress, blunt in speech, he is conspicuously lacking in what is called personal magne­tism. In the pre-war and war years, he was a conspirator against the Austrian captors of his country. He was arrested aft a spy six times.

WISH YOU HAD TWO! This clever new teakettle is a real time-saver: It will prove such a help around the house that you'll wish you had two of them—one for the laundry, one for the kitchen. A dozen times a day you'll appreciate this quick, easy source of hot water—for washing dishes, for shaving, bathing, shampoos, for sterilizing bottles, for cooking, making tea and coffee, and countless other tasks. Made of highly polished aluminum, spotlessly clean, the kettle can be used anywhere in the house. Simply connect to the nearest electric outlet. A pop-out plug guards against damaging the element if negligence al­lows the kettle to boil dry. The connec­t s a plug pops out automatically and shuts off the electricity.

HIS father owned a chain of bat stores In New York, and sent

bis son to Trinity School to Mama* roneck, New York, and had him Vepped" for Yale at Heathcote Hall, Rye, New York. Everything seemed set for the young man's career as an engineer But he said no to Yale, and started instead in Wall Street, hoping for a career as a financier. One year later, he was In the Navy, and It was at the Great Lakes Training Station that his musical talent was discovered.

Instead of being put Into active service, the war for him was Just a series of musical shows. In a few years be had qualified for member­ship In the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers, which had just begun to assume an important place In the musical life of America.

His first professional theatrical success was the musical comedy, "Two Little Girls In Blue" with the song, "Oh, Me! Oh. My! Oh, You!" as its feature. Two years later came "Wildflower" with "Bambo* lina". then "No. No. Nannette" with "Tea For Two" and "I Want To Be Happy" (lyrics for the latter two by Irving Caesar) OtheT productions that followed Included "Hit The Deck" with "Hallelujah" and "Sometimes Ttn Happy"; "Great Day." featuring the songs "Great Day" and "Without a Song."

His first movie job was to create the music for the first Astaire-Rogers musical, called "Flying Down To Rio ' After several months of intensive work, he broke down and was sent to recover his health in the hills of Colorado.

His friends In ASCAP and in the world of the theatre were happy to learn recently that he had fully re­covered and was sgaln preparing to continue his career as a songwriter.

His eastern home is in West* Chester County, be fishes in New Jersey, and tries to spend his win­ters in New Orleans at the Loyola University music school

Crooks Take Advantage of War \ To Bleed Consumers of Nation

Without Justification Prices Are Boosted and People Scared Into Hoarding; Public Sentiment Is Only

Force That Can Correct the Racketeering.

By WILLIAM BRUCKART WNU Service, National Press Bids*., Washington, D. C.

WASHINGTON.—My faith in the soundness of the profit system as the basis for people to make a living always has caused me to lean some­what to the defense of business prac­tices when there bad to be; a choice between theories. Every fair mind­ed person knows that business—ag­riculture, manufacturing, banking, transportation or any other—has had a terrific onslaught of cock­eyed arguments to meet in the last few years. To me, it is a distinct tribute to the profit system that We have seen as many businesses sur­vive the last five or six years as there are still operating.

But, calling upon the record of these columns, I have contended without exception that there are crooks in business, and that the present administration ought to di­rect some of its venom at the crooks, rather than at business as a whole. And, so, this week, I want to write aboift this situation that has come to the surface as a result of the burst of flame that has engulfed Europe; they have shown again the true colors of their makeup and they have taken advantage of a situation in world affairs, without any justi­fication, to bleed the consumers of the United States.

Almost with the crash of the first gun on the Eastern front, a small minority of business interests rubbed the palms of their hands to­gether and began to count additional dollars they could gain in profits by boosting prices. And to cover up their perfidy, their treachery and their characteristics of a water snake, they have spread a counter­pane of lies that will react against all business, including the growers of raw materials such as the crops of the fields. It is so easy to blame things on the war; it is being done by government officials as well as the brigands of business, but the latter "class is collecting an unseen (but deeply felt) .tax from all of us who buy food to eat or clothes to wear.

Hoarding and High Prices Due to Greed, Crookedness

I have interviewed a lot of people in the field of business in the last few days in an effort to ascertain where the cheating is going on. Moreover, I have investigated a number of business practices with the thought that these would pro­vide a clue to some of the price in­creases, and reasons-for them, with the results mentioned in the para­graph above. There must be added, however, one additional conviction: hundreds of thousands of consumers have become frightened and have started hoarding — buying excess supplies because of fright. I still can noj believe, however, that these hoarding tactics are completely re­sponsible for the kiting of prices that has taken place. Ruthlessness and greed, faithlessness and the or­dinary, garden variety of crooked­ness among certain elements of business must accept responsibility; for, from these things together with the campaign of misrepresentation which those elements have engi­neered come the fright of the aver­age consumer. Hence, hoarding.

In my study of the price situation on the regular purchases of a house­hold, I have sampled quotations and advertising in Washington and Bal­timore. Washington is somewhat different than any other city in the United States, but Baltimore is a large industrial area, fairly reflect­ing normal reactions of buyers. I have observed the prices of chain stores and traced them back to wholesalers and jobbers, and to the manufacturers in some instances.

Guilt attaches to a > small per­centage in the retail lines, the av­erage store. There were instances found where the prices were boosted on commodities that had been on the shelves three months, articles that could not have been affected in any way by any possible change in manufacturing costs, added ex­penses due to higher labor payments or increases in transportation and distribution. And, incidentally, there is almost no record of any increases in those items of manufacturing and distributing costs. The department of commerce figures do not reflect them, nor do the reports in the hands of the department of labor show them. But the beady-eyed rata behind the counters of a small per­centage of retail stores will blandly tell you these things have happened.

Soma Wholesalers Are as Guilty as Sneak Thieves

There are certain of the whole­salers who sre as guilty as sneak thieves in the night, but, like the retailers,, not all of them are re­sorting to price increases for plain profit. From my own inquiries and from, all of the information that has bean made available to me, I am inclined to believe there are more wholesalers—a larger percentage of them—who have taken advantage of the partis of the times than can b e

shown among the retailers. In­stances of actual sales and cancella­tions of contracts and refusal of de­liveries and delays in handling ship­ments were related, where added profit accrued to the wholesaler or jobber, that almost seemed too fiendish to believe. And worse, those fellows were constantly offering new suggestions that had no basis in fact in justification of their acts. We heard every one of the alibis of­fered during the days of 1917.

And the manufacturers. A flock of those fellows, again, not a large percentage, were found to be hiking their prices on goods already manu­factured and ready for • delivery. Now, I ask how on earth the prices on a finished product can be influ­enced by conditions that did not arise until after the work was done. The only answer I obtained to the question anywhere was that replace­ments would cost more, and there must be an inventory of sufficient size maintained to meet the demand. In other words, that limited group was taking the profit while the tak­ing was good.

One can not examine the situation, as now presented without consider­ing the stock market—the buying and selling of securities. It is not news to hear that quotations have boomed on every share of stock of a corporation that may sell an add­ed cacgo overseas. I believe it is fair to state, however, that this con­dition is one of pure gambling, and this speculation has added to the fright of consumers whoseg house­hold budgets are limited.

People Are Frightened And Commence Hoarding

In discussing the situation around Washington, I found another influ­ence, or what might be called an­other basis for excitement. It is quite unjustified, of course, but peo­ple nevertheless were swayed by it.

President Roosevelt has been talk­ing about the dangers that exist, and how we must avoid them in order to stay out of the European cataclysm. Heads of government agencies everywhere have been echoing the sentiment. There can be no argument: this nation must stay out and must help to keep all of the nations of North and South America out of the stream of molten lava that is spreading through the belligerent nations. It may be a necessary evil then, an unavoidable phase of world affairs, that people are frightened and seek to hoard. The tragedy of it is that the un­principled element I have referred to is in a position to capitalize upon such a circumstance.

But to get down to cases, let me repeat that there has been no in­crease worth noting in wages, in the costs of raw materials. There has been no increase whatever in trans­portations costs. There has been no increase in overhead expenses of grower or producer or manufacturer or wholesaler and jobber or retailer. All of these may come, and prob­ably will come some time, but they have not arrived and when anyone attempts to justify profiteering prices, that individual should be asked to show how and where those increases have had their origin. My guess is that, for the time being at least, most of these price increases are due largely to racketeering.

Public Sentiment / s Only Force to Work Effectively

And what will be the result of all of these things? I said early they would react on all business, good business as well as the rats. The government can not do anything about it. Public sentiment is the only force that can operate effec­tively, and public sentiment ought to exert its pressure.

There will be a lot of talk about government control and there will be half-baked, and even quarter-baked schemes offered in abund­ance—all with a serious desire to break the grip of the small ele­ment that has started this wave of fright, higher prices and more fright. Of course, it is unlikely that there will be any legislation result, because as far as I can find out there is no sound and workable method by which government can reach the scoundrels responsible. Yet, there will be efforts made and there will be investigations, and the demagogues without any more idea of what to do than your runt pig will shout and harrangue and create new doubts as to any and every kind of business practice. And hav­ing as many crackpots in places of responsibility as we now have in the federal government, you can be sure that those boys will give birth to ideas in quintuplet quantities.

So, when one sums up all of the data, it is made to appear that all honest and fair-minded business men had better get together and use their own type of blackjacks on the elements within their ranks that constitute a cancer on trade*

Sees Hope for Man of Future

Scientist Insists Physical Decline Unnecessary;

Brain Is Key.

KWH SEW 4*— Ruth Wyeth Spears o*3£>

CLEVELAND.—The man of tht future may not be the stoop-shoul­dered, weak-jawed, one-eyed, bulg­ing-domed, toothless runt science has pictured him, according to Dr. Montague Cobb, who studies skulls and skeletons.

"He may not be a bad-looking chap at all," said Dr. Cobb, asso­ciate professor of anatomy at Har­vard who spent several months studying the collection of skulls at the Hamann museum of Western Reserve university here. "He may even have somtt mtiUi— enough brains."

The cause of many tooth troubles —crowded teeth, impacted wisdom teeth, and possibly tooth decay, orig­inated millions of years ago when a little animal known as the tarsier had the audacity to stand on its hind feet, and to use its forepaws as hands.

"The smart little tarsier was a tree dweller, and our common an­cestor," Cobb said. "He was the first animal, we believe, to discover the use of the hand for work and mischief."

Hand Work Improved. As the tarsier's descendants found

additional uses for their hands and brains, they had less need for toothy snouts for grabbing food. New uses for the hands required bigger brains, and bigger brains required a bigger brain case.

After a century or so, the jaw of the animal receded while its brains bulged forward, crowding the teeth.

"The tarsier, by standing on its hind feet, caused a lot of tooth­aches," the scientist said, "but we believe now that as evolution ad­vances further, and the brain cavi­ty becomes still larger, more room may be created for the teeth, and tooth troubles may become a thing of the past.

"In other words, if man wants to save his teeth, he should develop more brains."

Analyses Trapeze Artist. In his studies to determine the

fate of the human teeth and di­gestive system, Dr: Cobb was inter­ested especially in the feats of an individual famed in song and verse —the man on the flying trapeze.

"Trapeze artists," he said, finger­ing a toothy skull which once be­longed to a Neanderthal cave man, "are, remarkable.in their ability to hold a woman with their teeth. One wouldn't expect such strength in the face, but a study of the skull re­veals that it is divided into two sec­tions—the bi case and the face."

While onJy a fragile bones hold on the face, the brain case is held to the body by strong muscles," he said.

"I found," said the scientist, "that the growth of the huge brain case over the front part of the head was responsible for strengthening of the jaws, enabling these acrobat fellows to perform their remarkable feats."

New Engiand Man Builds Tiny Farm in Spare Time

BOSTON.—Two years in the mak­ing, Huston Dodge, whiled away his spare time by constructing a mini­ature New England farm house, which is furnished throughout with toy reproductions of Seventeenth and early Eighteenth century fur­niture.

Dodge specialized in building con­struction at Wentworth institute and put his knowledge to good ad­vantage by equipping the house with windows, doors, table drawers, table catches that operate perfectly.

The farm buildings are made of antique pine wood. The framework of the house is similar to that of early Colonial types with solid look­ing beams and joists. There is a fireplace in each room and all of them burn well.

The furniture is beautifully made and reproduces the early pine pieces usually found in museums. The builder even braided a number of rugs for the floors. He also made a tiny loom, which is capable of weaving.

The house is complete with barn, chicken houses and a well sweep.

Church-Theater Meets Approval of Community

ESTILL, S. C—A church-theater arrangement in this tiny South Caro­lina town is working to the benefit of both parties.

The united churches of the vicin­ity hold their regular services in the town's new air-conditioned theater, reputedly the only one in a village of this size in the United States.

Their attendance, which had dropped grieviously because of the summer heat, reportedly is prosper­ing again in the cool building.

Age of Man Is Reckoned At About 2,000,000 Yean

LONDON.—Men existed at least 2,000,000 years ago, back in the Mio­cene age, James Reid Moir, who delivered the Huxley Memorial lec­ture for 1989, said.

The oldest of all traces of intelli­gence are the stone implements and engravings on horn and-bone found at Aurlliac in central France, he de­clared. These could not have been made by an ape of any type.

A GREEN and white kitchen is ^ * as fresh and crisp as a lettuce leaf. I stepped into one the other day with white walls, green floor and green organdy curtains. Ev­erything was green and white, and over the stove hung a set of patch­work pot holders like a row of bright green and white tiles. All

Whistler Couldn't Pass Up Opportunity to Use Bailiffs

Mrs. A. M. Moncrieff, who has just celebrated her eighty-eighth birthday, knew many of the great Victorians in the days when, as Nita Gaetano, she was a celebrat­ed singer—and tells sbme good stories about them.

Once she dined with Whistler, the famous artist, whose pictures now sell for fabulous sums. Two manservants were waiting at table.

"You must be doing well, sell­ing a lot of paintings," she re­marked, a little surprised that Whistler should "splash" in this way.

"No," whispered her host. 'They're bailiffs. I thought they might as well be doing something useful."

Attorney General Thomas Read at Lansing declared that a price-fixing "conspiracy" among retailers would bring instant prosecution prosecution by the fftate. He added, significantly, that "the present crisis may succeed in doing that which numerous 'isms' have failed to do" for Michigan far­mers. Crops Improving

While mid-*ummer weather was ap­proaching drought proportions, Mich­igan farmers entered September with crop growing conditions 4 per cent above August and 1 per cen*i above a year ago.

And that news, coupled with the reflection that surpluses \ ore still on hand, was immediately linkod to

I headlines of rising commodity prices due to the war.

Known to agricultural experts for a long time through Republican and Democratic administrations was the fact that farm prices have lagged in parity with manufactured goods. The AAA and soil conservation pro­grams were aimed to effect an ar­tificial remedy. As Attorney General Fead observed, war profits may do for $he grower what government planning had not fully accomplished. Problem of Neutrality

r Into the new picture of war pro­fits was injected the issue of nat­ional neutrality and how it might
