Baseball again is demonstrating
that it is the national game. Just
at the time that many sports writers
were tj-ping long stories about how
racing was likely to replace baseball,
because of the large number of new
tracks being opened, the games be
tween the Giants and Pirates in New
York drew a capacitj crowd of C0.

away. When baseball gets in the

it steps awaj- from other eports.
BACK TO NATURE
We read there Is a great "back to
nature" movement in Germany and
that "tens of thousands" are shuck
ing their clothes and "joining the
cult of the nude." The craze for
"sun bathing" is even sweeping
beyond Germany into Sweden and
Finland, with the hurried formation
of clubs with such names as the
Rhythm of Determined School Re
formers and the True Alliance lor
Soaring Life. Mosquitoes and the
police are obstacles in the path of
complete nuditj- on this side of the
Atlantic, but we also have our "back
to nature" enthusiasts. We read of
the school that urges walking on tip
toes, like the gorilla, in order to at
tain the gorilla's tremendous chest,
great strength and blooming health.
Others condemn the art of the cock
and point out that all the biggest
and most powerful beasts eat only
green herbage or raw meat.
Presumablj- such "back to nature"
movements are more than ever in
evitable at a time when the scientif
ic world shows increased determina
tion to prove that man is onlj- a re
fined beast, ascended by slow pro
gressions, from the lower animals.
It is scarcelj- to be wondered at
that many of those accepting this as
their faith should conclude that the
road to health and phj-sical strength
leads back from man's over refine
ments toward the habits of the an
cestral beasts. But one of the chief
drawbacks to such ambitions, how
ever logical the reasoning on which
it is based, is that, though the jungle
counted many murders daily, it
never produced a Phidias, a Shake
speare, an airplane, a radio, or senti
ment crj-stallized in the injunction
that we should do unto others as we
would have them do unto us.
:o:-
EIGHTS OF CITIZENS
Nothing Is harder to change than
the habits of people. Radio broad
casters have noted a big slump in ap
plause postal cards, which the an
nouncers ask be sent the station "af
ter each program. And thej- have
figured out that the reason is that
the postal rate for cards has been in
creased to two cents. The increase
wouldn't cause serious financial dif
ficulties to the people who formerly
sent cards, but it was a habit to send
the one-cent cards and it's something
new to send the two-cent ones.
The right of the people to be se
cure in their persons, houses, paper?

larly describing the place to be
searched and the person or things to
be seized. Article 4 of the Bill of

Congressman Hudson, of Michi
gan, who is heading a junket to On

Ontario.

SHOULD BE EEPEALED
Congress having failed at the
short session to amend the income
tax publicity- measure and check the
flow of informtaion that is so useful
to the evil-minded and the get-rich-quick
schemes and stock speculators,
the treasurj- department will open
on September was long and loud pro
test when the unnecessary and inad
visable legislation was put through
congress and almost unanimous de
mand for its repeal. But congress
was too busy with other and many
important matters to hed the cry
for relief in this direction. It is
hoped this will get early attention
in the new congress.
Last year the interpretation of the
law being confused an effort was
made to prevent the newspaper from
using the figures which the collec
tors of internal revenue had been
instructed to open to the public. The
matter went into court and news
papers indicted for using the reports
were dismissed. The court held that
congress had ordered this detail of
private accounts, between the Unit
ed States and her citizens, to be laid
before the public, and regardless of
the general objection, the publica
tion was declared within the law.
Frequently it has been said that
there is no good reason for the post
ing of the amounts assessed against
income taxpaj-ers. The statements
upon which the assessments are
based are withheld for purposes of
the department and are used in re
checking and investigating the re
turns made. These papers are not
regarded as common property or in
disputable record and the public has
no access to them except possibly by
order of court.
It can be readily seen that the
mere statement of total tax paid
means little or nothing to the curi
ous or even disinterested investigat
ors. Without the details of the re
turns, which show the exemptions
and propertj- not subject to taxation,
no real estimate of the fortune of the
taxpayer is had.
But the lists of figures thrown
open b- the act of congress indicate,
through comparison, the wealth or
resources of large taxpayers and
this directs attention of speculators
and sharks to them. That it does
anyone any good can scarcelj- be
claimed; the figures suggesting only
the income and not indicating the
outgo or property exempt.
The taxpayer's relations with the
government should be confidential.
Every known means is employed to
insure the return as true and fair.
The United States government has
unlimited resources and takes it own
time to determine whether or not
orae t3xpaj-er has reported less in
come than he has, or greater than
should be taxed. An army of ex
perts is watching the residents with
incomes. It does not need to call
upon the public to assfst in bringing
out a full return.

POINTS FOE HEALTH
Everybody knows Judge Elbert H.
Garj-, chairman of the board of di
rectors of the United States Steel
corporation, and most people also
know that at the age of eighty j-ears
he is as heartj- and hale as the aver
age man of forty. It is now said
that following a visit to the com
pany's new hospital at Bethlehem,
Judge Gary heard it reported that he
was ill. This displeased him great
ly. He doesn't allow himself to be
ill and believes that reasonable at
tention to diet and other matters
will insure health for almost every
body. But as he had "been in the
hospital" he found that it was de
sirable to contradict the suggestion
as to his "treatment." and along w-ith
this declaration he volunteered to
give the public his rules for con
tinued enjoyment of good health.
The dietetic and health points he
had adopted and will try to follow,
are as follows:
1. Exercise in the open air but do
it very moderately.
2. Breathe deeply of pure air as
much as possible.
3. Leave alcohol stimulants alone;
take tea and coffee if you like them.
4. Drink pure water.
5. Eat little meat. E3t red meat
but once a week.
6. Eat little starch, fat or sweets;
eat plenty of green vegetables con
taining mineral salts; eat whole
wheat bread; eat good fresh fruit
and drink milk if it agrees with you.
7. Follow regular habits.
8. Get plenty of sleep.
9. Work hard mentally and phy
sically, but not too long.
10. Lead a good, clean life.
11. Keep an even temper and
avoid excitement.
12. Never get angry or indulge in
controversy.
, 13. Obey the Golden Rule.
14. Eat only to satisfy hunger, not
to please the palate.
As has been remarked, there is
little that is new in, the list of things
to be done and left undone, but they
are all excellent. Anyone will ad
mit the general excellence of the sche-;
dule set out by Judge Gary, but it is
not to be expected that the multi-J
tudes will follow his lead. Eating)
to please the palate is an almost uni
versal habit in this land of plenty.
In some parts of the world eating
is practicallj- alwaj-s a matter of
stoking the furnace to keep up the
strength for existence. In America
tha laborer in the field and elsewhere
can have luxuries but they do him
little good. The wise people who
are determined to live long and en
joy life without too much excite
ment will be pleased with the "four
ten points." Any one of the num
ber will help the health and abiding
by the whole set could not possibly
do harm.
INCOME TAX FIGURES
The published returns of income
taxes for 1924 show the Fords and
Rockefellers, Jr., top the list, with
Rockefeller's individual tax $6,377,
09 9, while the senior Rockefeller's
comparatively small tax of $128,420
is explained by the familiar fact that
he has for several years been trans
ferring his properties to his son, be
sides making immense gifts to var
ious philanthropies.
The personal income tax of Henry
Ford is $2,60S,0S8.25, and that of
Esdel Ford, $2,158,169.91. Since the
company is a family affair, all the
stock being owned by the Fords, the
contribution of motordom's royal
house to the Government reaches the
imperial total of $21,295,335.15.
Opinion is divided as to the wis
dom of such publicitj'. Not only its
wisdom, but its very decency is ques
tioned. There can be no doubt,
either, that President Coolldge, who,
it is reported, will recommend the
repeal of this provision of the law to
the next Congress, will have a con
siderable body of public opinion
back of his purpose. Nevertheless,
publicity of income tax returns is
logical and entirely consonant with
the publicity attendant upon other
fiscal relations of the citizens to his
Government. If secrecy is desirable
as to income taxes it is no less desir
able as to realty taxes. Yet, no one
would seriously argue for the latter
