IAGO GALOSTON Good Food and Plenty of It So much omphuHis h:i noun plucod of lute on the qualitative value of food that we are likely to overlook the quantitative aspect. It Is of toiiiHo vital that one's diet Hhould contain an adequate amount of vilumiris mid mineral milttt, hut we imitit not overlook ltn contentH In termu of calories ami of protoinH, rata and carhohy dnitoa. In oLher words, an abun- lunt diet Is as obhohUiiI us u diet of first cIuhh quality.

'I 'lie same modification In treat- mout has been applied to patients lillorluK I rum tilli blood itressure of iinldiown cause and from hard eulriK of the kidney. Tho value ot the more abundant Hot, however, is seen not only in ho treatment of diseases but also n their prevention. Thus it is found that reulstuuco to Infection, as well aa growth and develop ment, Is favored hy an abundant and adequate diet. It is ot course not true that add ing foods or vitamins to an already adequate diet wtll increase one's esistanco to Infection. Hut It Is true that when tho diet Is lacking protective elements uud is quantitatively inadequate. Uiu in- llvlcltial becomes more susceptible lo Infection. Those who consume a restricted diet uro frequently subject to vague ill health. Lack of appetito, digestive dis orders and vague pains and dis comforts not due lo organic dis ease aro found frequent ly among women who eat too sparingly in order to be Btylishly thin. rood faudlsts who are fidgety about the foods they eat are fre quently faddists because they are fidgety and fldgoly because they aro faddists. This vicious circle ould bo broken by (he courage to eat enough food of the right kind. t ootle drum corp of V. '. W., "Snap" Jlllmoro, director. Waltz, "Danube Waves," Ivan Itag oviel.

So, 1 got in my car and drove at some length and with considerable thoroughness over the streets In every district In town.

IN THE U.S. TREASURY . -ID en mil LETTERS to the Editor CRITICIZES CONDITIONS HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR FISH LIFE DEPLETION July 9, Editor News-Review: During the past few weeks we have received many letters from anglers desiring luform:itIou lelu tive to steelhead and salmon fish ing in the Umpqua. Some of these inquiries came from us fur away as Iowa and Missouri, uud wero evidently Inspired by Har old Say's articles that recently appeared in Outdoor Life and oth er sports publications. They uro considering the Umpqua us a placo to spend their summer vaca tion, uud to try their luck for steul head and salmon. All of which brings back to our memory a statement In Zaue (irey's letter published In tho News-Review of Juno ii. last. "Tho Umpqua If properly con served and protected will want lo bo visited by every angler in the United States." Another state ment In the saino letter: "I hope you Oregoulaus will wuke up In time to save tho Umpqua." The simple truth Is that Harold Say came to the Umpqua nt the lime tho recently-completed new l a ni was obstructing the passage of fish. The fish were collected in considerable numbers In the waters below the dam, due to the fact that the fishways had not yet been perfected. Fishing for once In rocent years was really good, but with perfected fishways and easy passage- of tho Binall rem nant of tho once great silver horde of the Umpqua, that is nil over, and Harold Suy Is not like ly to make many trips to tho Ump qua, but will join tho army of Zaue Greys and other prominent anglers that fish the Umpqua no more. The sud truth Is that we havo so little real knowledge of fish and fishing that we are not sure of anything. Instead of trying o learn, we arc helping to hide I lie truth from even ourselves. Instead of hunting out the facts and making them known, wo try to make ourselves and others be lieve wo have apuradlse of. fish ing. Thus we bar the way to our own progress, for onlythosc tak ing the cream of the crop are iu possession of, the facts, uud we aro helping them hide the truth; so that wo Oregoniuns are not likely to wake up in time to savo the Umpqua uud the Umpqua is but one of tlio jobs for us Ore gon i an s. We advertise an Umpqua para dlse for the angler and what we really have is u 3truggllug rem nant pf what was once a seeming ly large school of tiny fishes that were hatched In tho river yenrs before (though even in tho be ginning It was not one thousandth part of tho great school it should havo been). The chubs and many other pests have taken a terrible toll of them, as has also tho angler before they reached the ocoan, whero they were continually ut tho mercy of tho great fleet of deep sou trol lers during tlio two to six or sev en years (or whulover period of time required for them to' roach maturity and become educated to the trolling lures) before ugaln en tering the Umpqua to run the gauntlet of the gfllnet fleet. We know vory well thut all catch reports or the commercial troller and ot the glllneller should bo obtained and made public knowledge, but ure not. We know that Instead, tho game commission has published and dis tributed a synopsis of Oregon angling laws which inform us among other things "It is ulwuys unlawful." To fish by any mean 4 other thun with hook and liuc while the fish commission sells licenses for the use of gillucts (of any size or length whatever) to bo used in the Umpqua (though gillnots li censed for use in the Columbia can he no longer than two hundred and fifty fathoms). And wo are also Informed that "It is always unlawful to use more than one line or line and rod held in the hand," while the fish com mission is selling licenses where by the resident may use as many lines and hooks as he may desire, simply by purchasing as many trolling licenses as he may desire, each one permitting tho use or no more than six lines to which may he attached no more than twelve hooks, and the price is S2.5U per license. Of course, we wouldn't think ol permitting their uso directly in the Oregon streams which is as it should bebut it is a sad fact that, their toll of our salmon is a thousand times more than if that condition were reversed and their use permitted only within the streams; simply because tho sal mon during the years that they are., out In the ocean growing to maturity before coming back into the river collect In schools to feed upon schools of tiny fishes that also furnish food for great, flocks of sea birds, uiat are easily seen by aviators in airplane.!, wh'jsc business it is to report the loca tion of theso schools of salmon; so that the great troll fleet may come from tho many ports along the entire coast. Kach boat pro vided with us many of Iho. special anglers licenses as the size of the ship and length of the groat polos that extend Tar out on either aide will permit the uso or and continue their work until the school is so broken, the remnant so scattered that It becomes necessary to find another school in order to make profitable the operation of tho great ships. These remnants, per- 1 haps many times broken and scat- tered during tho years spent out thoro, ure tho ones that conMi- tute tho fatuiou part of our para dise. Perhaps we can't do any thing about It. I don't know, but if they were Jap ships 1 am sure we would and as far as we are coucerued I think the result to our fishing is about the same. The writers of these letters are coming and we are going to do tho best we can for them, but inex perienced and handicapped as the majority of them are, fishing a strange stream at whatever time they can arrange to arrive, the law of averages will prevail. The majority of them are sure to come no more for although we all know that some expert anglers still make some fair catches in snite of all those handicaps, the chance the average visitor has a slim indeed. So why not tell everyone the tin Hi that tho "It's always unlaw ful": "To fish hy any means other than hook and line." "To use moio than one line or line and rod held in the hand. "To use more than three hooks on one line.'' "To take more than thveo sal mon or steelheads in a day or ten in a week." "To sell, barter or exchange one, etc., etc." Is just meant to sound good to the individual angler but does not apply where It Is needed. Sincerely, II. F. PEARSON. GAME BOARD CHIDED FOR ORDER ON DOES, FAWNS UROCKWAY. Ore., July 12 Editor News-Review: When the state game commission said there would be "no open season" on civet cat. It was considered quite a joke and now they open tho hunting season on does and fawns in a cer tuin game reserve "to preserve one of the states largest mule deer concentrations," and othor rosorves are opened to regular bunting "in un effort to cut down the sacson- able flow of animals" ( protected game) Into this same reserve. Say, that sounds just like some more of this New Deal stuff. Next we may expect to find our Ifarost reserves y.yrbwn ppen to fire bugs with the brilliant idea of reducing the seasonable growth of trees to preserve the large stands of timber in these reserves. It's a wonder the game officials (who probably never saw a deer outsjfHe of !l city park) don't place a bounty on ail wild game animals. Then we might do well to re-stock our depleted reserves with those sumo officials and their pesky ltt- tlo civet cats uud declare a year around "open season." Yours truly, W. L. McABOY.

Why Tnose Dreams? The worst dreams conservative republicans havo on these warm nights arise from fear that in some way or other they will find Mayor Fiorello LaGuurdla of New York their party's presidential nominee in 1910. It. can be said with authority, however, that LaOuardia what ever his immediate course in New York Btalo politics has no lllu uin. ti.ut Ito ,.n ho uninitiated and elected to the presidency two years hence. His closest menus uu feel that he wouli ho a valuable vice-presldentlal nominee and there Is reason to belieye that LaGuardia himself doesn't scorn the Idea. If the New York mayor had fig ured on running for president 1910 ho long before this tiini would havo begun to organize an nrrn.l In mnlrn him NfiW York's governor or one of her senators. LaGuardia is still personally close to Itoosevclt and the betting among his friends is thut ho will before long have entered into u more formal political alliance with tbe president. Why Bother The food and drug administra tion and the department of agri culture are forbidden by law to test tho effect on human beings of nnlsrin. sni-nvml nil frillls :inri VOIT- elables. Under title I ot the latest agriculture appropriation bill you'll find: "Provided further, that no part of the funds appropriated by thin act shall lie used for laboratory in vestigations to determine the pos sibly harmful effects on human be ings of spray insecticides on fruits ami vegetables." The provisio was first offered lor the 1937 act by Congressman .uiarenco (.-annon ot Missouri. triilt grower.
