A CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR ANNOUNCES
HIMSELF
THE morning's mail brings the following, signed by one,
John A. Joffery, of Portland:
1 hereby offer myself n a candidalo for governor or l!te
Blal.e of Oregon, upon the regular repuhliean ticket, subject to
the decision of Iho lefjal vol era of aahl parly, in the lltHO )rl-
mary election to be held therein.
"If choeen aa chief executive of the alate of Oregon, I
.''Pronilae my fellow cillzena of our lionui stale, that I will use
' all honorable nieuns within my power to promote the general
welfare of our people and our state through the following pro-
grain:
"1. Abollah all comnilsaluna, nnd cany on by means cjf
' , Iho regular state officers only.
"2. Jteduce the cost of our Htate governiuent at least 60
per cent, without -.nipalrliig its efficiency.
And so on, and so on. Twelve "planks" are set forth
in his "program," these first two are ample, though. Just
when a whole lot of us were beginning to feel that the busi
ness of running for important offices was being reduced to
more sane and practical terms than ever before, this comes
along and jolts our complacency. Back we go iiow, years
and years, and our votes are solicited on the basis of ex
travagant and amazing promises like the above.
But, what difference does it, make, what does it mat
ter? It is Mr. Jeffcry's right under the direct primary
law, to be a candidate for governor, or for any other office,
if he wants to. After all, under the circumstances, it is en
tirely his affair. There is just this much in his favor, as
long as there will be quite a number of "platforms" written
this year, he has the jump on them because it will take a
pretty long reach to overbid his opener of 50 per cent re
duction in expenses.

" Ticket sales for the chamber of commerce annua) meet
ing Friday night have reached 150 and the committee is
still working. This dinner promises to be a biff event and
the amount of public interest in the work of the chamber
as evidenced by the advance ticket sale predicts a success
ful year, for it is public interest that makes the work of the
chamber of commerce effective. .

Coupled with an udinininu-ulivu experience in the de
partment, which bewail with Mr. I.ioover'B term, went
a prae'.leal knowledge of the army that was acquired
lu the American , Expeditionary l'orco.
"The old Pluto, war and navy building, breathes
n rovoreuce for tradition, Its steep, circular marble
Htaii'H, IU highly varnitdiod dark oak woodwork, its
battle-Hcarreil t'higa in gluna cases, .are all meinen
toes of our past.
"On the ceiling of (he secretary's waiting room
a painted Mars in a chariot of war urges on his horse
through u maze of gold and red rococo ornament, silk
Htandards Jul front overy corner, while bearded funn
el' secretaries glower in heavily gill friunes.
"Into this collection ot national heirlooms, covered with the omber
ih'hh or years, comes the new secretary like a breath from the open. To
our heritage of lite past he brings a iui'sfiiku ol the prem-nt. The god of
war looks strangely out of place in a horsediawn vehicle: the revolu
tionary mortars appear much older by contrast, when this tall, active,
new secretary enters the room." S. J. Wuoll'o lu the New York Times,
Docember 22, 1029.
Our Hoover chooses chtirming way
Men who can work as if nt play.
This Patrick Hurley he has found
(That has a good old Irinh sound)
Is like n cool, refreshing breeze
I hat whistles through the forest trees,
Or like a lowing herd of steers;
He warms our hearts and strunycly cheers.
We seem to see the open sky
Out where the bunch-russ yrows so luh;
And in his eyes are sunrise looks
That no man ever caught in books;
There's curious wonder in his face -It
hints of windswept open space;
A certain hopefulness that soars
That tells of years in God's outdoors,
I lis stories have n Lincoln tone
Or still n farther Western one.
There's prompt decision in his jaw
He learned where men .were quick to draw
- A school that made him shaip and keen
And made him hate the thinj that's mean,
A school to stir his Irish wit
And crystali.e his native juit.
These Hurley traits the times demand
They're frank, foursquare, have strength to stand;
They're not afraid of sun or rain.
Have pluck to take their share of pain;
They arc not shackled to the pust
Suggest horizons fresh and vm!.
Methinks this Hurley man will ;row
Till all the world his face will know.

Former Commissioner of Health. Sew Yorlc City.
YOU will be interested in m recent report of a two-year study of
health conditions in New York City, as made by the Medical
Social Service Section of the Welfare Coundj of the cjty. As
a result of this work, extensive plans for cancer control are now being
made by city authorities.
The report shows that cancel clinics and hos
pital beds are far belyw the needs of the com
munity The city authorities have promised, not
only a new hospital for this work, but also that
twenty-six of the city hospital? shall carry caneei
clinics. There will be increased facilities in
cancer divisions in existing hospitals. A chief
will b.e appointed to direct the entire work of
cancer control lo the city.
The Welfare Council reports that cancer Is
growing steadily as a cause of death. In one
year there have beer. 7,500 ,such deaths. One
death out of ten is caused by cancer.
There are at present 22,000 cases in the city.
The figures 'show that for cancer patients only
838 hospital beds have been available in all the
hospitals of the city. These beds are nearly all
required for incurable cases. Yet all cancer
oatients need hospital care at some unit :
It is apparent that present facilities are most inadequate for
existing conditions. What is true in New York is true everywhere
At present there is no evening dtnic for cancer control. The
of this. Munv working people who
have the tliactise art not able to visit
clinics during ihp day
The WfUurw Council reported the
following a (ifftnaa in the fcystem
1. No ripm-lul cancer service in the
Department or ticiiiin.
2. No eo-ojm ration ot the Health
Department und medical societies in

3. No project for obtaining fuller
and more accurate death reports.

DIOAll WKb. ItKKCKMAN:
Should a gTrl. who has just
made known her engagement, an

her fiance's mother, who she has
only met on two occasions? I do
not think the letter culls for an
answer, but my girl trie ml is go

KKADKH.
YOU mean,, don't you, that your
girl friend Is the one who re
ceived the letter?
Indeed, such a letter "calls for
an answer." Just as fine and
ehaimiug an answer na a girl can
write.. To disregard such a kind
and friendly letter as this evi
dently was would bo boorish, and
most unfortunate, too, for the girl
would m 1b a one of the best op
portunities In the world to estab
lish a spirit of friendliness villi
the mother of the family Into
which ho is entering. Every
move thai she mukes toward that
family can he inevitably indicative
ot her lack of both of these charm
ing qualities. Since she has ac
quired a new mother, who appar
ently has a sense of innmiurs and
specifically of what should he done
to welcome a new daughter Into
the family, she should show her
appreciation by answering the let
ter. When you consider how de
lighted ami happy her fiance's
mother will be it the does answer
the letter and how disappointed
she will be if her letter is disre
garded, you will see that for her
to answer it is reasoiiaMe. I'ut
yourself iu the mother's place,
dear girl.
The fact that she has mvt her
mother-in-law -to be only twice
makes no difference. It would
make no difference if she had
never met her. Indeed letters
then become the medium by which
she will know her will "meet"
her spirit and get acquainted with
her.
She should thank the older wo
man for her letter, show her ap
preciation of the mother's wel
coming ItUo the family, tell the
