Hut al ready we have a speed limit law with a maximum consider ably below Hie margin of safety under modern car and road conditions. We nave a law against recklessness. We have a law for forfeiture of driver's license when abused. We have a drunken driver law whose "ItuW have been her alded far and wide as beiiifr all that such a law's "teeth" could or should be. What fui-ther law can there be con trived that will help? There is a siiKifcstion that the cost of automobile insurance premiums be made higher to motor ists who have proved themselves bad drivers. Would not that merely cause such persons to decline to take out any in ;surance? I Our trouble is not that there is too little law for making .motoring safe but that penalties for recklessness are too sel dom enforced. Everybody who observes is familiar with in cidents in proof of this. Traffic, officers, stale and local, do their duty for the most part well enough but when the . cases get into court enforcement too often bogs down. In any serious case of traffic law infraction a jury trial is de manded and juries are notoriously lenient with such of fenders. For instance, the very fact that a conviction for driv ingWhile drunk carries with it a mandatory jail sentence makes jury convictions on that charge the exception even when evidence is ample. And yet the penalty is just, for the drunken driver is the worst menace of all on the road. ; Strict enforcement of forfeiture of the driver's license upon conviction of recklessness or other infraction of the 'rules wo. ild be the most effective possible deterrent. Tem porary forfeiture for first offenses and permanent foi-fui-! ."tures for repealed offenses would, if carried .)ut, make the highways relatively safe. There is law enough already to ."accomplish that. , , Senator Joe Dunne, who heads the cemmittec now work ing pn the proposed new laws, is as well posted as anybody in' Oregon on motoring conditions. Maybe he can bring 'oubsomo new ideas in legislation that will be useful, but what we most r.eed is discovery o ways to make enforce--nicnl of present laws effective. ' o ' ...J5am Starrier has succeeded in raising a fine crop of "sweet potatoes this year and anticipated quite a profit frwn the experiment until he began seeking a market. Then he .found that the wholesale fruit companies would not buy them because they were Texas sweets instead of California sweets. This writer has within the week eaten sialic of Mr. Starmer's Texas potatoes and some of the California var- ' iety. M r. Starmer's sweets are better by far than to others. Loral dealers do not buy the Texas variety from Mr. Starmer because they depend largely on the Cliolesale fruit houses for such supplies and do not wish to change. The point of the whole thing is tlia: A local man has raised a farm product that is better than siimil.ir products now offered forCealc at retail. They cannot be sold to dealers here be cause California sweet potatoes are already in the market thniligh the wholesale houses. Reasons may be good and plenty why this condition exists but whatever the reasons may be, something should be done to promte the marketing of Diore 'locally grown produce in local markets. i M Glad i didistt BREAK IT- MA,CCIE WILL HAVE TO GIVE.

She makes us pay high prices for what sh? gives. , Chiefly these penalties are the disear'-s caused by our modern mode of life and the kinds of food we eat. Rickets is such a disease. It if caused by improper diet. As a rule rickets is found anions children who are bottle fed. Hut occasionally a breast feil baby develops the disease. Formerly, it was generally believed that bad air, lack of exercise and infection were the prin cipal causes. It is true that children taken from such surroundings when sufferinp from rickets and exposed to sunshine nnd fresh air bogin to show immediate improvement. An interest ins fact about this disease is its geographic occurence. It is most prevalent in America and middle Kurone. Children of Italy. Spnin. Greece, Norway. Denmark and of the Kslgno regions rarely are affected. In the southern eounlrief it is because the intense hent keeps the children out-of-doors.

Independent Merchant Speaks Up "Don't worry about independent merchants not being ablt to hold their own in competitive mercan tile lines," eaid one of their mem bers who is well known locally, following a perusal yesterday ol un ediiorial in the Sc-h r vealing the rapid growth of ciiatii organi zations throughout the couu'ry. The fact of the matter is. be continued, "much of the growth of the chain system has been due to the rapid addition o.' new stores and the elimination of iiteff.cierit independent merchans. A very large majority or inte dent merchants remaining In the field have dcmousliaied their ability to meet the new form of competition, and that they have met that competition during tne 1-n in which chains enjoyed their mort rapid growtn is goou u.ssur anea thai they will continue to do so n the future. You do not have to go outside of Medford to obtain proof of my contention. There are independent merchants here who are not only meeting the new competition, but ae seiting a good fast pace in re tail circles." In concluding his eonwr'nt, be said: "The pneceiis of elimination 1b not yet complete, hut almost so. As soon as the few remaining In dependent dialers who fail to adopt more progressive methods of merchandising step out of the field, chain organizations wi.l face a class of competitors who are worthy of their mettle." Trade journals serving indepen dent retailers of the country have been devoting a liberal volume of all but predict a new realignment which will place the independents in a more advantageous pobitlon than ever before. Nor is the new alignment in the retail situation of the country without its reaction upon ' the manufacturing industry, which eco nomists point out is undergoing a marked change In policies in order to meet new conditions. Here it is again pointed out that manufactur ers who are not operating at a high rale of efficiency, and who are unable to meet new demands created b sharper competition IP retail trade circles must eventual ly retire from the field of activity and give way to those who are set ting a faster pace. After all it is efficiency that counts In any line of endeavor. It Is essential to success in every business, and those who are with out it are bound to fall by the way side. Medford Daily News. Burn -the Timber? (Portland Journal.) If no rain comes before. Gover nor PatterHon will be fully Justi fied In postponing the hunting sea son until there is a rain. In fact, as the guardian of the public inter est, it is the governor's duty to do so. Protection of the forests aciinst fires is highly essential. Much ol the timber Is the public's. And the public gets a lot out of the forests that are privately owned. Tho la bor cost in milling privately owned timber goes ultimately into the pockets of the public and it is a big percentage of the proceeds. The counties get 35 per cent of the gross receipts from federal re serve timber. They get 50 per cent of the gross proceeds of land gran! timber. In addition, they indirectly get from both classes of timber the milting cost and much of the mill ing profit, the same as from pri vately owned timber."
