The reason inai on the average we eat too much, and have obesity or some other manifestation of overfeeding. In hard times we indulge our appetite less and reap the benefits. If times are too hard, we run into danger at the other end of the line. The consumption rate runs up and men suffer from hunger edema and other manifestations of prolonged undernourishment.

The chief fault In the American diet in time of plenty is the excessive amount of sugar it contain. Our per capita consumption of sugar is three times that of France and two and a half times that of Germany. What is more Important, it waa increasing steadily up to the time the "good times balloon" exploded. In consequence, we are supposed to have a million diabetics, and nine-tenths of the people over 40 years of age are too fat for good health or for efficient work. Some part of the excessive use of sugar goes into the manufacture of alcoholic beverages in illegal plants, a method that is wasteful of the raw north of 16th street.

to increase his consumption of starchy foods, the man who is trying out the low sugar diet must be careful to hold down his allowance of bread, cereals, potatoes, beans, peas, and corn.

1. The writer has read and heard a great deal about the miscarriage of justice in our courts as practiced by some of our judges, but had never realized the truth of these statements until today, when I had the sad experience of being the complainant in a larceny case before Judge BorellL In May. 1930. I was called to one of our establishments and was informed by the chef that the colored portei who had worked with him had just emptied the cash register of the money and ran away. I attempted to locate the porter, and in June discovered that he was employed on one of the Goodrich steamers.

I swore out a warrant for his arrest, and upon my arrival on the steamer with officers and the warrant the man evidently had been tipped off prior to our arrival and we could not locate him. Since then I have spent much time and close to $200 in trying to get the man. During these months of vigil I have been approached by different people at different times who claimed they were friends of the man and asked me to drop the case and that I would be reimbursed with the amount stolen. I refused, and I informed them that I would not rest until that man was brought to THE INSOLVENCY, OF CITIES. The present financial difficulties cf Chicago's local governments are nothing; about which to rejoice, but there la some comfort, perhaps, to be found In the knowledge that they are not unique.

Large and small cities all over the country are experiencing much the same difficulty In collecting the amounts levied. A few days ago the Rockford Register-Republic concluded from the temper of Rockford's property holders" that public Interest in tax matters was something more than academic Demands for tax reform and lessened expenditure were Interpreted as signs of a taxpayers' rebellion." The Detroit News finds that in a number of the counties of Michigan upwards of half of the taxes have not been collected; hi some of the townships considerably more than half are delinquent. It is a serious and unprecedented state of affairs. A study of tax delinquency shows that the rural population is defaulting less than town and city property owners Dut thousands of cases these sturdy home owners are defaulting. Their abhorrence of debt and their ingrained sense of the necessity of supporting government give way before the terrific demands of taxation." If the full facts were known we have no doubt that something resembling Chicago's plight could be found In many and perhaps most of the large cities of the country (excepting, of -course, Milwaukee).

Chicago's situation is more difficult than that of the rest because few cltiea, If any, have suffered In recent years from as Chicago has. At the same time, the breakdown In the assessing machinery in Chip go with the resultant two years" Interim between tax collections tended to destroy the habit of tax payment. Other cities suffered from the advancing costs of UNCLE SAM IN THE BARBERRY BUSHES. Sturdy young field workers of the U. S.

The solution of the city's financial difficulties may prove complicated as to detail, but the general outlines are readily perceived, and they will have to be followed by states and nations as well as by other cities. There must, in the first place, be a marked retrenchment in government expenditures which will bring outlay below income and reduce income to a figure within the capacity and willingness of the taxpayers to pay.

K. Luts. curator of the department of insect life in the American Museum of Natural History, entitled "Insects vs. People." will be taken by most people as a welcome reassurance, after reading the stories that have recently appeared from other writers about the danger of the human race being stard in a world swept of vegetation by swarms cf voracious insects suddenly produced by some turn in their life conditions. Insects do not cooperate, and a descent by them en masse upon man is inconceivable.

On the contrary, they are constantly at war among themselves, and scientific control of insect pests depends upon this fact and man's ability to turn an insect enemy loose upon an insect pest. But Mr. Lutz'a article is chiefly interesting and reassuring in that he takes the case of Insects vs. People" and shows that insects, in spite of the fact that many of them damage vegetation on which man depends for food, on the whole contribute to the process of vegetation far more than the damage they do to man's agricultural operations. The agency that flying insects take in pollenaUon of blossoms that are not self-pollenating is obvious, but Mr.

Lutz goes into the vast ramification of this work of the Insects and showa that we are indebted to thia insect work for vast numbers of species and varieties of plants that are of value to man. Most people are familiar with the work of earth worms in making that thin layer of the surface of the ground which we call the soil such that it win support vegetation; but Mr. Lutx shows that earth beetles and other ground insects are vastly more beneficial in preparing the soil than are the ordinary earth worms. Indeed, in view of the fact that all man's food ton.es from the soil, insects would seem to be man's tins qua noa. DETROIT.
