WHY NOT GET OUR SHARE
.. A new policy for the navy has been made, public bythe
'some way or another for the vast sums that, the R. P, C. will
use in financing projects over the nation to aid unemploy
ment, .
People in La Grande Will be exempt rid more than people
in Portland, Ore., or Portjand, Me. So, since everyone must
pay his or her share; why not try to get as much back for
the money spent as possible? ' , t
, ' Which is just another argument why La Grande should
vote on July 21 for a $257,000 bond issue for reconstruction
of the Beaver creek pipeline.
It won't cost the taxpayers' a cent. Thirty per cent of the
financing will be done by the R. F. C. as an outright grant,
and the other 70' per cent will be paid out over a long period
of time through water department receipts, and the bonds
issued will carry a low rate of interest..
This all, of course, depends upon whether the R. F. Q. will
finance the proposition. First, however, the .city must" vote
a bond issue, because without the voters' approval, any at
tempt to get federal aid would merely be wasted effort.;..
If the city were to vote the bond's, and the R. F. C. fail' to
finance the project, the city commission, declares that' the
project would be dropped and
So, really, there seems to be
ous amount to gain. The citizen of La Grande who knows' f he
meaning of "grasping an opportunity" will not vote no on
this question when it confronts
WE WANT
Anew policy for the navy
navy department, and. it includes designation, of two naval
bases on the Atlantic coast and two also on tho Pacific.
Formerly only Vallcjo, near San
malic ocean naval activities. Bremerton, Wash., may be
come the second base in: the west.
Tho pronouncement said the navy should' lie maintained
"in sufficient strength to support the national policies and
commerce and to guard the continental and overseas posses
sions of the United States."
A strong navy does not necessarily indicate that' a country
is hunting for war; and the country with a big, effective
fleet of battleships rarely is attacked except under extreme
conditions. .
That's why we favor an adequate navy we want peace.
ON THE SPOT
From now on President R6ose,velt is "on the spot" so fai
ns his program is concerned It is distinctly lip, to him to
"shoot or give up the gun." He has been given the greatest
power, ever devolved upon a peace time president and prob
ably has more authority than any living head of a liberal
government. His chief task will be to see that the ninny cou,
set u to promote the "new deal" fit smoothly and work to
make the economic machine operate without stripping the
gears.
His chief aim has been mid is, so far as one may know,
to raise commodity prices. However, there must be a. bal
ance in order that these gains in one field shall not be nulli
fied by losses in others. For example, as prices go up, so
must wages, and conversely purchasing power must not
precede proper industrial preparation. The thing must syn
chronize if society as an entity is to be improved.
Oregon's new ?5 half-year automobile licenses are selling
almost 40 per cent faster than the higher priced full vein-
licenses of last year. This in
tics of gasoline!
You can fool people with flattery foi- ninny moons but
sooner or later tho time comes wlien you must deliver the
goods.
"I3uy American" is all rij-ht provided tlio American farm
ers do not expect to sell their wheat and cotton in other
countries.
Cheer up! Hotter times arc
soon.

' TONSILS .
Tho tonsils present a number qf
probloma which hayo not as yet been
settled to the full satisfaction of
clinician, surgeon, and, patient.
It is not, uncommon for a mother
to complain that,, whereas one doo
tor lnsicts that the tonsils of her
child must be- removed at once an
other denies the urgenoy of the sit
uation. , . : ,
The physiology of the tonsils has
not been clearly defined. Structurally
we know them to be lymphoid in
character. .The tonsils bear a. very
elose . relation to the other lymph
glands and lymph structures.
Lymph tissue Is made up largely
of the so-called white bloodt, cells.
These we know are the patrolmen
and the scavengers ( of, the human
system, and they protect us to a
large degree agalnBt the Invasion of
foreign. substances. , .
Some, however, maintain that, in
addition,-, the tonsils,, precisely be
cause 1,hey are exposed to Infection,
help us in developing immunity or
resistance to disease. They argue
that their unnecesstry removal Is a
handicap, rather than a benefit to
the child. . -. .,. .
From all of this mass of argumen
tative . data, a few universally ac
cepted facts can.be abstracted, par
ticularly with regard to the , condi
tions under which the removal of
the tonsils . Is indicated.. .. . . .
First, there are those tonsils which
are so large that they interfere with
breathing, ant) may even- make swal
lowing difficult... ; Such tonsils re
quire surgical treatment...
More important, however, is , the
removal of tho tonsils which are a
source of sepsis. - How can, one de
termine, when the tonsils aro i
source of sepsis? There are two cri
teria: one, the history of the-case;
the other, the - appearance of the
tonsils. Of tha two criteria, the fbt
is the more Important.
Professor -Hajek of Vienna- estab
lished this postulate, that if a person
has three attacks of. follicular ten-
si litis during a (period of : one or two
years, the tonsils should be suspected
as a source of sepsis. Removal of the
tonsils is Indicated in such cases.
Only .35 per cont. of department
stores which operate restaurants do
so with the expectation that they
will return-a direct profit, a recent
survey revealed:- ' '
