THE American Medical Association is meeting in Portland.
This body is the national organizationoj" the members of
the medical profession. Its powers of excommunication and
anathema are paralleled only in ecclesia. When the A. M. A.
speaks, doctors snap to attention and legislatures likewise.
The association is sincerely devoted to the. scientific conquest
of disease and amelioration of pain. It has proven a courage
ous foof quackery, of fake nostrums, of lying medics, and
of foolish contraptjons like health belts and boxes.
; Because of its membership and its leadership the gen
eral public is interested in its deliberations. Unfortunately
the public cannot follow intelligenty the ports of the pro
ceedings, especially those dealing with special diseases and
their treatments. Doctors speak in scientific terminology,
just like they write their prescriptions in Latin, so the public
can be kept ignorant. It is important not to spread misinfor
mation, especially that which would fan the hopes of victims
of diseases still regarded as incurable. However, the better
course might be to make the news reports complete and
clear so correct information might be disseminated.
- The public is interested in a number! of things which
perhaps the medical association will not touch upon. Here
are somethings which are pertinent:
How may the costs of obstetrical cases and of operations,
and of hospitalization be kept within the; reach of self-respecting;
families of moderate means ? , "
j What real values are there to manipulative therapy and
why do not regular schools of medicine embrace the valuable
portions of such practice in their courses of study?
" j How may the excessive, use of drugsf in treatment be
done away with and the public weaned away from depend
ence on "medicine"? - j
j How may ancient inhibitions be modified to meet mod
ern conditions, specifically, giving scientific information on
Uffi ui tuuuyi, uiiciugcufc ouu uvmuiauie cxupiujruicub ui outw
tising, for he good of the public as well as doctors?
j 1 Some of these may be touched upon. I If they are, they
will probably be handled in a strictly "professional" manner.
It would be a good thing for the doctors j if some of them
could be taken up in a rough and tumble! open forum with
non-medics contributing to the dicussion. '

THE Japanese cabinet, headed by Baron Tanaka, has been
overthrown, and a new cabinet inducted into office The
new premier is a commoner, Yuko Hamagucbi, the third un
titled prime minister iu Japan's history. Japan's internal pol
itics has been troubled for some little timej The principal dif
ficulty has been between the old military party and the new
er, more liberal party; The old Japan leaders favored a
firm hand" in China and Manchuria. It nearly meant war
after the Tien-tsin incident when Chinese nationalists fired
on Japanese soldiers. The Tanaka government backed up
Chang Tso-lin, the Manchurian war-lord, and wanted a strong
policy in Manchurian politics. The opposing group wanted

of the respective peoples. That didn t sound well in japan
where the Mikado is still on the job and rules as an absolute
monarch. ! There is no such thing as the Jepenese people

BITS for BREAKFAST
By R. J. HENDRICKS
Why not Oregon walnuts?
W
A friend phoned-the Bits man
calling attention to an advertise
ment of the Western. Dairy Pro
ducts company In the newspapers.
n which last week's special was
Victoria Nut Ice cream; "fresh
California walnuts and toasted al
monds," combined with "vanilla
Sunfreeze' and flavored with - a
touch of delicious chocolate."
S
That sounded good but why
California walnuts? the.fr lend who
telephoned wanted to know. Why
California walnuts, when Oregon
walnut are better and our high
quality product, like the grafted
Franquetes from the Skyline or
chard, sell 5 cents a pound higher
in the New York market than the
budded California nuts, the best
grown in California?
The why pf it Is that likely the
man who wrote the copy for the
advertisement was unaware of the
superiority . ot the Oregon wal
nuts; and besides he was writing
copy for a wide territory all
over the coast and besides again
persistent boosting inspired by the
California spirit" has built into
the mind of the people ot this
country, and of other lands, gen
erally. that California- products
are superior to those of other sec
tions.
It Is not the ; quality particul
arly. It Is the advertising; the
Superiority complex of Californi
ans that by their peristency they
have put over onto the rest of the
world, when thinking of the gold
en state and. its product.
a formation looking like a cathe
dral or a capitol, at the highest
point of the hills south of Salem;
overlooking the whole valley, on
bQth aides ot the river. That is
Skyline. It is Skyline because it
is the skyline oat there: about
six miles south of Salem. If you
read this, you will 'often turn your
eyes that way and see SkyUne
orchards. The clump of fir trees
was left standing, in the center
of the orchard, and at about the
highest point.

It is about 1,200 feet above sea
level there; about 1,000 feet

the student showed that the Sky
Une land was once v under -the
ocean. There" is sandstone up
there, and ancient seashells, and
all the other signs of marine life
some hundreds of thousand or mil
lion years ago. How the land got
up 1,009 to 1,2 00 feet above pres
ent -sea level is another story; a
long One.
' S S
The Mr. Noble employed Knirht
Pearcy and his brothers to have
the land cleared and set out - to
grafted Franquette walnuts, with.
Oregon or Italian prunes as fiU-
ers. Mr. Noble has kept books in
Skyline from the day ot his start.
He knows exactly how it stands
him wow; how much money he
has put in; how much he has tak
en ont. In the sales of prunes and
walnuts. He is an engineer. He
does not fool himself. Mr; and
Mrs. Noble are spending the sum
mer vacation season here; taking
a rest after traveling twice around
the world in the past five years,
A needed rest. But he is. not rest
ing much. He is tarrying on ex-
ing here yet. He was and is a, pio
neer. There are things yet to wor
ry about" But he is tackling the
problems as he meets them or as
they come up. j
He Is satisfied with Skyline;
with the soU, the air drainage,
the elevation, etc., etc Ho would
do the same thing over 'again.

it s
j What - has he found? Many
things. He -believes the bulk of
the walnut acreage of the United
States will be in the Willamette
valley. Why? The Statesman pub
lished and republished an inter
view with mm, weeks ago, when
he first arrived here on his vaca
tlon trip. The main reason is that
walnut trees In California must
have irrigation. And there is not
enough irrigation water. The wa
ter level In the artesian wells ot
California has. gone down 10 feet
1 and it Is still going down.
!. . V
t Walnut trees In the Willam
ette vaUey do not require irriga
tion. They send their-deep roots
down after the water. The surface
moisture can be conserved by con
stant cultivation. That is what Is
done on Skyline. Mr. Noble does
not kow all about walnut grow-
from ' California s book and go
out and get a reputation, in the
the language of the challenged
prize ring' champion. There is an
increasing number of products the
Salem district puts on the mar
ket that can truthfully , be ex
plotted on quality, besides wal
nuts, as tor Instance filberts,
strawberries, especially our 'froz
en berries" In cold sack, celery.

He is also an engineer. When he

with a soil anger, ' making bor
