Johnson Through Autocaster
Service).
I have just got back from a visit to
one of the most interesting cities in.
^America—Milwaukee.
I Everybody has heard of Milwaukee,
I but few know much about it. Before
) prohibition it was famous for its beer.
One brewery used to advertise “The
‘beer that made Milwaukee famous."
Since prohibition Milwaukee has had
little advertising. But •it has been
plugging along until today it is one of
the most prosperous industrial cities
in the United Statss, one of the clean*
est if not the cleanest of all, one of
the happiest communities to be found
anywhere i the world, and it is one, at
least, of the larger cities of America
which ha.s no municipal scandals, no
graft, no gang warfare and no un
punished criminals.
And that is saying a lot for any
American city today.
W’hen you add that it has some of
the best educational institutions in
America, one of the best municipal
museums, one of the finest art galler
ies, and one of the largest public li
braries, it makes Milwaukee sound
like a good town to visit or to live in.
And. that it what it is.
Ninety miles from Chicago, or about
the same distance that Philadelphia is
from New York, Milwaukee owes its
location on the jhore of Ijke Micjh|*
gan to its excellent harbor. name
is Indian in origin; the foundation
Uock of its people is Oerman. That
accounts, probably, for the widespread
love of music and art. It accounts, too,
in large measure for the thrift of the
people of Milwaukee, and for the pas
sionate cleanliness which extends even
to such little details the removal by
the municipality of ashes direct from I
house-hol(l(“rs' cclia; s, in.stc i<l of ash- '
cans set out on the street. The streets^^^
Europe and all parts of America, in
venting machinery for manufacturing, I
packing and labelling his cheese, plan
ning merchandisii^ methods. At one
time he owed his bankers a million
dollars, spent in preparation for
ting the new* cheese on the market.
Today there are more than 4,000,000
pounds of cheese ripening in the great
vaults where formerly lager beer was
stored to be properly aged before bot
tling. The cheese has to age for eight
months before it is packaged and ship
ped.
Milwaukee makes other thi
sides cheese, however. It ma^es yfnen
—scholars, engineers, ^e products of
Marquette university, >whif
oped into one of the best of the small
er colleges of the nation.
One of the things which Milwaukee
is doing is to build 84 miles of boule
vards extending away out into the
surrounding, park-like country, and
there will not be a single billboard
along their entire length.
I could write for a day of interest
ing things which make Milwaukee dif
ferent from most other American cit
ies. But what impressed me most was
its peacefulness, its contentedness, the
apparent happiness of a community
where few are very rich and few are
very poor, where more people have
been able to keep their jobs during
this Jtrying year than In most other
coimiitjinkiaw ■■
-HEIGHT
In flying to a height of 43,166 feet,
more than eight miles up in the air,
Lieut. Apollo Soureck of the U. S.
navy, has set a record which will take
some beating.
niy by the use of compressed
o^gen in a tank, inhaled through a
tube, and an oxygen super-charger to
insure combustion in the engine, was
Lieut. Soureck able to do the stunt at
hiph has devel- ^ Capt. Hawthorne Gray of the U.
S. army, who rose to 42,470 feet in a
balloon three years ago, died from
lack of oxygen in the rarefied atmos
phere of that great height.
All of the talk about voyaging to
the moon, whether by airplane, rocket
or other device, is so much moonshine,
in view of the impossibility of carry
ing enough oxygen along, to say noth
ing of the intense cold of inter-stellar
space, somewhere around 460 degrees
below zero!
20 and 25 million dollars. A knot, by
the way, is a nautical mile, which is
800 feet longer than the land mile; so
a speed of 30 knots meant 14% miles
an hoar.
llie U. S. Shipping board in con
junction with the post ofTice depart
ment is arranging with American
steamship companies to baild two
ships even bigger and faster than the
new Cunarder. It will take three or
four years to build them. They will be
good advertising for the United
States but probably will nOt earn their
keep. The deficit will be made up in
what the government pays the com
pany operating them for carrying the
mails. The mail subsidy of the British
government to Samuel Cunard is what
put the British flag ahead of ours on
the Atlantic, 75 years ago.

A young lady of my acquaintance
was aurprised recently on getting
home from her daily work as a steno
grapher to jfind a young man waiting
When she told him, he informed her
that the title company which he rep
resented was prepared to pay her and
each of -her five living sisters,- aunts
and uncles $200 each to sign a quit
claim deed to a strip of land one inch
wide and eighteen feet long.
That price was a “nuisance value,”
but there are several pieces of Man

One of the great institutions of Mil
waukee is .fudge (ieorge A. Shaugh-
'le-vsy. He pre.sides over the-municipal
curt, in which all criminal ca.ses are
ried. With all the talk of “the law’s
delays” which make the administra
tions of ju.stice difficult el.sewhere,
lawyers and judges could learn u lot
by studying .ludge .Shaughnessy’s (
method.s. reads;
It is nothing unusual in Milwaukee
for a criminal to be arrested at S>
o’clock in the morning and by 3 in the
afternoon be on his. way to the state
penitentiary to serve a ten-year sen-
“T. B. ”
My rural readers will pardon
m sure, for once more calling their I office buildings. It no longer pays
attention to what is still one of man’s
fiercest, most unrelenting foes; it
seems to me that good advice in the
presence of an enemy is never out of
place.
Thoughtful men have been battling
this scourge .since the dawn of his
tory; for its annihilation men of great
wealth and greater hearts have spent
millions in research, and the noble
work still goes on. .lust what measure
of success has been achieved may be
by amy abservlng one who
and our more recent decades
have been singularly noted for ad
vances made.

tence. When Judge Shaughnessy was A’ontacts in the densely populated dis-
put in his present job there were 1100-
odil ca.ses of criminals awaiting trial.
Some had been stalling off trial for
as long as three years. That is one
reason why criminals escape punish
ment; public indignation over theit
crimes wanes if trial is long delayed.
.lud^e Shaughnessy started to clean
up the court calendar. At the begin
ning of 1930 there were only seven
untried cases, and not one of those
was more than a week old. He has
tried as many as 20 cases in a single
day. He opens court at nine. If the
lawyers are not there, he decides the
cases without them. As a result, the
lawyers are always there, on time. He
sometimes holds court from half-past
eight in the morning until 6:30 in the
afternoon.

“True To
The Navy"
CAPITOL
THEATRE
. Lioirens, S. C.
One result of this speedy justice is
that crooks give Milwaukee a wide
berth. Recently three Chicago gunmen
tried to stage a hold-up one night in
Milwaukee. They were arrested be
fore they could get out of town, by
noon the next day they had Wen sen
tenced to 30 years each in prison, and
by 3 o’clock they were on their way to
the pen.
j “We don’t send them all to prison,”
Judge Shaughne.ssy told me. “I put be-
' tieen 400 to 600 first offenders on
j^robation every year. But no man
pairti is guilty gets off free if I can
help it.”
One of the big industries of Mil
waukee which was put out of business
by prohibition has developed a new
line which is putting the city back on
the map industrially. The head of the
I largest brew ery wondered w-hat he'
was going to do w-ith his enormous j
plant. He had been experimenting oaj
his home dairy farm, some miles back '
1 in the country, with cheese-making.
He had produced a kind of cheese
which everybody who tasted thought
was the best they had ever seen.
“Why not make cheese?” his friends
»t»Rg«»ted. Milwaukee is right on the
edge of the greatest dairy country‘in
the w-orld. No finer dairy herds are
to he found anywhere than in this
southern Wisconsin and northern Illi-
' nois country. So the brewer started
experimenting with the commercial
production of a new kind of blended
cheese. He spent hundreds of thous
ands of dollars on experiments, bring-
iry chemists and other experts from
tricts are often- unavoidable; ^the fog
of dust you encounter on the windy
thoroughfare may contain many of
the death-dealing germs; your resist
ing power against disease may be low;
your own lungs may become Infected,
especially if you are carrying a colony
of influenzal or other baccili; you
never can tell.
Steer clear of the person who
coughs w-ithout covering the mouth
and nose with a handkerchief. Be duly
alert again.st the fellow with a chronic
cough, who continually eiqiectorates
on the grass under the shade tree, or
on the sands of the beach nearby.
Shun the resorts where “lungers”
(poor fellows!) abound, if possible;
the best precaution you may take i8.|
none too good; prevention is many |
leagues superior to cure. i
It is the duty of physicians to sur
vey their clientele with eternal vigi
lance. Teach them to observe every
precaution against scattering or coii-
j trarting disease. I am sure that proper
I quarantine—and that only—will end
j the “white plague” for good and all.
Outdoor air is not always pure—in
deed far from it in crowded localities,
where ignorant victims of disease are
carriers and distributors — promiscu
ous expectoration is a crime.
( OM.MERt E
I went into a grocery store in a |
little Ma.ssachusott.s town the other i
day to buy .some matches. The sales-1
man handed me a package which was j
marked “Made In Russia.” In the same
shop window 1 saw some canned corn-1
ed lieef, cooked and packed in Uru
guay. In a store in New York recent
ly my daughter bought a rain-coat
made of silk which had first been
woven in Japan and then sent to Scot-
Tand'tb'^ vyaterproofed. Wearing
that, she drove to a country house on
Long Island where the refreshments
served included tea from India and
biscuits from England.
For every dollar’s worth of goods
the United States sells abroad we
must eventually buy a dollar’s worth
from the country w-hich w-e buy from.
That is the long and short of all the
talk about tariffs and imports and the
I xport trade.
