The learned Dr. W. J. Mayo,
earth s greatest surgeon, able to remove
anything you have, except your citizen
ship and your complexes, warns you
that restraining your emotions is bad
for your heart. Every time your mind
interferes to cheek your instinctive
impulses, the heart suffers. That will
encourage modern young people, in
creasing their expectation of long life.
When you suddenly jam on your
four-wheel brakes, your tires suffer;
so with your heart when you suddenly
apply your will and control the emo

Captain Saul of the Southern Cross
can testify to man’s progress in trans

days.
Some years ago he made his first
Atlantic crossing in a square rigged
sailing vessel, and was six months on
the journey. >*
In spite of that, many still doubt
that ocean air travel will ever “become
practical.”
Children of today will ask about
“the old days when people crossed the
ocean on the water,” as they now ask
about stage coach days.
And those now living will cross to
Europe for about $10.

WASHINGTON, June 28.—Strik
ing back at the Senate for re
stricting his Law Enforcement
commission to a study of prohibi
tion laws along, President Hoover
Friday declared the commission
would continue its investigation of
general crime conditions with the
aid of subscriptions from private
sources.
The President acted soon after
the Senate had defeated, 35 to 30,
an a mendment to the second defi
ciency bill to provide another
$250,000 for the commission to
complete its inquiry into enforce
ment of all criminal statutes, and
approved a provision of only $50,-
000 with a strict limitation con
fining the work to the dry laws.
Replying to questions at the
White House press conference af
ter he had conferred with five
members of the enforcement com
mission, Mr. Hoover said:
“With growing crime of all kinds
and with insistent recommenda
tions from every bar a ss6ciation
and public body concerned that we
should have an accurate study of
the reforms necessary in our whole
judicial and administrative ma
chinery, that we should have some
constructive program for decreased
and control of crime as a whole, I
cannot abandon the question for
one moment or allow the work of
this commission to cease.”
“I have asked the commission to
proceed with its full program of
work and it has consented to do
so.” the President added.
He said he had no doubt there
were private citizens sufficiently
anxious for the nation to know
the “whole truth as to what con
structive remedies may be sug
gested by so eminent a body of
men and women as this commis
sion,” and that he would be able
to obtain from private sources
$100,000 to carry on the work to
completion.
The five members of the com
mission who conferred with the
President after the Senate vote
were Chairman Wickersham, Dean
Roscoe Pound, Henry W. Ander
son, Monte L. Lemann, and Miss
Ad a L. Comstock.
Asked if the commission ex
pected to continue its work, Chair
man Wickersham said:
“We are not quitters.”
Commenting on the Hoover an
nouncement, Senator Glass, Demo
crat, Virginia, who led the ftght
for $50,000 allotment, said:
“All I have to say is that if there
is anybody simple enough to want
to waste their money to this sort
of work I certainly sh a ll have no
objection.”
