After Eight Years
hundred lives, as witnessed in the South this week, we
human beings are helpless to prevent a recurrence, and
set about rebuilding. We hope the storm will not strike
again, at least in the same place.
The whole nation gives its sympathy as the Georgia
and Mississippi towns start rebuilding, knowing full well
that the storm might have struck in our town.
There is nothing we can do about the storms, but
there is something we can do about the floods. Floods
can, to a large extent, be prevented and it is our duty
to use our knowledge and our means to prevent them.
Starvation and privation, disease and disaster are
taking a heavy toll of human lives and 90 per cent of the
loss might be prevented. We should stop worrying about
the other ten per cent, and do our best for the 90 per
cent that we can do something about.
Children are dying of diphtheria in Limestone coun-
ty. We can do something about that. The very vitality of
life is being sapped by the dread malaria. We can do
something about that, too. Tuberculosis is preventable or
curable, and many other diseases can be controlled.
We can do something to prevent infant deaths and
maternal deaths in the country, and it is a shame we do
not. Someone said “The only time we can save babies
that are going to die this year is this year."
It is Limestone county’s privilege and duty to take
advantage of the governments offer of substantial aid

Court Decision
Oklahoma City, Ok., April 14.-
Owen J. Watts, assistant attorney
general, said Monday a suit will
be filed in about two weeks in
Pittsburg county aimed to open the
way for sterilization of approxi-
mately 500 prisoners in the State
penitentiary at McAlester.
T’he suit would attempt to carry
out provisions of law passed at
the last legislative session for ster-
ilization of habitual criminals.
Watts said if the state is sustained
it will enable officials to carry out
intentions of the legislation, thus
far inoperative.
Watts said the suit is prepared
against a, man who has been con-
victed five times and is the first
case reported following passage of
the law, which provides county at-
torneys shall report all cases where
men or women are convicted of fel-
onies involving moral turpitude.

The following letter has been re-
ceived by E. C. Paxton and he is
giving it this publicity for the in-
formation of the farmers of Ellis
county: This letter was signed by
Mr. E. L. Deal, manager of the
Certificate Pool, Washington, D. C;:
“Your letter of April 3, with
reference to possible payments for
certificate poundage surrendered to
the 1935 National Pool, has been
received. For your information we
are briefly outlining the present
status of this pool operation.
“In January, 1936, certain cotton
producers who had purchased cer-
tificates from the 1935 National
Pool brought an injunction against
the pool manager as trustee for the
funds accrued from the sale of
certificates in this pool operation. i
The government’s plea, for a dis-
missal of this injunction was heard
by the Supreme Court of the Dis-
trict of Columbia on March 12,
and on March 13, the court denied
the injunction brought against
these funds. The plaintiffs have
twenty days from the latter date
to file an appeal for a hearing-
in the superior courts. Until this
time limit expires or an appeal is
filed or refused, we will be unable
to determine when we may con-
tinue toward a liquidation of this
operation. \

Chelsea, Mass., April 14.—Per-
haps', an ambulance crew reflected
Monday, Joseph Gzyzschack, 52,
wasn’t altogether accurate when he
telephoned them to hurry to his
home for a stretcher job.
A police ambulance jammed to a
stop at Gzyzschack’s home. Out
tumbled Patrolman John O’Neill
and James Hurley, carrying a
stretcher. (
Gzyzschack met them at the door.
"Who’s the patient?” demanded
the officers. -
"I am,” he replied, “but wait a
minute. I want to borrow $2.”
He ran across the street to a
store, 7
“I’ll be out in a minute,” he as-
sured them as he brushed past
and disappeared into the house
with groceries for his wife.
Twenty minutes passed. Gzyz-
schack failed to return. The am-
bulance crew entered. They heard
a noise in the cellar.
“We went to the cellar,” Hurley
said, “and there we found our
patient. His shirtsleeves were rolled
up. He was chopping wood. T just
wanted to pile uo a little for my
wife, he told us.”
