Cigarette smoking is as detrimental to health as is excessive use of liquor.

Straus, Intimat1 i iend of the late Theodore Roosevelt, ' f-retary . of commerce and labor and u,.,,.iistsador to Turkey during the Roosevelt adminis tration.' and "the Progressive candidate for governor tn New York Jn 1913, has sent the following telegram to the editor of, the San Francisco Chronicle,' a John son supporter,' which has in turn been given out for publication by the Hoover headquarters : : , .W "- - T understand the supporters of Hiram Johnson' claim that In his opposition to the League of Nations with the lodge reservations or in any form John son represents the position and ideals of Theodore : Boosevelt. , Permit me. for the information of the people of Cali fornia and in Justice to Roosevelt, -to state that any such claim Is without foundation. The fact is tht Roosevelt was not only in favor of a League of Nations but was the first among the world's foremost statesmen in our gen eration who advocated a strong League of Nations or League of Peace. In his Nobel prize' address in Chrlstlania on May S, 1910, he said : "It would be a master stroke 41 those great powers honestly bent on peace should form a League of Peace not Only to keep the peace among themselves but to prevent by force if necessary its being broken by ethers.' ir- f-- When- the League to Enforce Peace was formed at. first he did not approve It, believing that it proposal for the use of force was not sufficiently i effective. Subsequently before his last illness, when the amended provisions were;; explained to him. he approved of the league and so stated to me and also, if I mistake not, so stated to! Taft. On December 21, 1918, I sought his advice regarding my going t Paris as European chair man of thei league for the purpose of advocating a League . of. Nations. He emphatically; advised me to go. The foregoing facta I feel Justify me in say ing that he . would havei.. approved a strong League of Nations with power to enforce its decisions and that John son's violent opposition'" to a league in any form dees not represent the views of the visloned and Immortal Roosevelt." . I -v; G. O. P. CANDIDATES QUERIED " . ON PUBLIC LAND QUESTIONS Eugene, May 6. Representative Louis E. Bean of ithi lty, candidate for re- nomination to the legislature on the Re publican ticket,-is forwarding -to each of the RepebKcan candidates for the presidency, ai set of pointed questions as to their position and policy regarding the disposition , of. the public lands of Ore gon. Statistic have Vbeen compiled by Bean and placed before the candidates, showing that more than one half the total area of; Oregon is included, in for est reserves! or unappropriated public lands, which! if assessed on a like basis with private-towrted" lands would produce approximately. $2,000,000 in-revenue. He goes on I to show that the state feels keenly f that It is being discrim inated against I by the ? permanent with drawal of these public lands-' and that it is not on an equal footing .with other states. He asserts that the people of Oregon will jbet pleased to know Whether the candidates; approve of this policy of permanent government : ownership , for the benefit of future generations ?! wheth er, they wHl favor the "just and equal compensation of the state by direct fed eral appropriation or otherwise ! in lieu of the right jof taxation"; whether they will favor the turning over of theee lands to the states! to be administered by them under proper legislation, or the policy now advocated by some, of the further extension and enlargement of the forest reserves; whether they will approve the policy of extending-federal control over private owned timber lands, as advocat ed by some officials of the forestry de partment. j " 't- .. -'''j JOHNSON'S MAJORITY OVKK -HOOVER STILL PILING tJP San Francisco, May 5.
