Inquiry on Wealth
ENATOR McNARY blocked consideration of LaFollette's
resolution calling on the department of commerce to
make a report on the distribution of wealth. McNary's ob
jection was not personal, he stated, but due to his feeling
the matter should go over under the rules to another day.
- We should like to see such an investigation made. There
is much loose talk about how wealth is distributed, but no
one can give definite proof of his assertions or quote any
dependable authority. For instance the claim is often broad
cast that some 5 per cent of the people own 80 of the
wealth of the country. We do not believe these figures would
be sustained under an impartial investigation.
The wealth of the country is in its farms, its factories,
its railroads, its mercantile establishments, its homes and
apartments. The tendency in late years has been for most
enterprises to take corporate form and for the bonds and
Btocks representing ownership equities to be widely distrib
uted. Thus the railroad bonds are held chiefly by savings
banks and insurance companies. But these are the savings
not of just a few individuals but of the masses of the people.
Our only hope is, that if such an investigation is or
dered it moves more swiftly and more satisfactorily than the
one ordered on the resolution of LaFollette, pere, for valua
tion of the railroads. The elder LaFollette got congress to
have the interstate commerce commission evaluate the rail
roads. He said it would cost a million or so and wouid reduce
the valuation of the roads decidedly and thus permit lower
rates. The commission has been working on the job for about
20 years and it isn t finished yet.
The cost has run into tens of millions. The basis for val
nation has not even been finally adjudicated yet. And now
congress is about to pass a new rule for rate-making under
which valuations will be of no ponsemience. as in truth com-

Letters from
Statesman Readers
It's been a hard season on congressmen. Ruth Bryan
Owen has been defeated ; and early reports were that Gilbert
Haugen of Iowa, one of the oldest in the congress, was run
ning behind his younger opponent. We have not seen the
final returns. It might be better for the country if the mem
bers of the lower house had a four year term and were chos
en at the same election as the president. Party control would
then be more firm for the whole period and perhaps an ad
ministration could really administer. We have not had an
effective administration in this country since President
Wilson s first term.

nature was un

time that more

children in the
South had this
disease, and
though the dis
ease is not as
nrevalent as formerly, a recent
publication announces that hook
worm victims are still to be found
in some States. -
Hookworm is caused by small
worms which enter the, body
through the skin, reach the circula
tion and eventually are carried to
the intestines. There they barrow
into the walls of the intestine and
do severe damage to the health
of the individual, before they aro
elfminated.
In 1915 the Rockefeller Sani
tary Commission discovered that
the disease could be prevented. To
accomplish this, they found it
necessary to pass sanitation laws
and to instruct five public in per-
eonal hygiene and the dangers of

Dr.Cepelaad
"Uneinaria Americana" is the
sdentifie name of the worm that
buses this disease. It is often
referred to as the "germ of laxi-
ness," because its victims have no
"pep1 or strength. They show
definite signs of backwardness and
have low resistance to disease.
At first they complain of minor
stomach disturbances. These symp
toms disappear upon the taking of
food. There is a yearning for odd
articles of diet, such as clay, dirt,
resin, chalk and hair, because eat
ing these substances gives relief
and comfort.
The hookworm sufferer has a
pale complexion. Is thin and un
dernourished, complains of dizxi
ness. palpitation and shortness of
h&reath upon the slightest exertion.
and soon becomes mentally dun
and physically unfit for any kind
of work.
Children with this disease have
Erotaberant abdomens and aro far
elow the average size. They are
retarded in mental and physical
development, shiftless and irre
sponsible, and eventually become
a burden to the community.
Fortunately the treatment of
this disease Is simple. "Thymol'
or "carbon tetrachlorid,' is the
remedy, and often just a few doses
clear . the Intestines of all the
worms and eggs of the hookworm.
It Is estimated that a single dose
will remove 95 to 100 per cent of
the worms. ..
The advantage of thymol over
other drugs previously used is that

Dear Sir:
One haa only to make a trio el
ther north or south on our high
ways to see how many machines
are licensed with other than Ore
gon plates.
What is the answer to this? Is
it that there are so many outside
machines traveling Oregon roads
or is it that owners are evading
the high license fee that prevails
In Oregon?
On a recent trip to Portland
the writer counted more machines
with either California or Wash
ington plates on thanhero were
Oregon and It does not seem pos
sible that this condition could pre
vail unless many of these ma
chines are evading the getting of
licenses for thli state. All anyone
has to do Is to check the cars that
stand on our streets in Salem or
any other city and find that there
are thousands that are living right
here, or in other cities, with plates
from some other states while we
that have gotten our licensee for
Oregon are supporting the High
way Departments.
We hear arguments regarding
the lowering of the license fee In
this state but It will never be done
unless there is a more careful
check made on the many machines
that are now operating In the
state with, other than Oregon
Plates. Surely the Highway and
local police could make a more
careful check and inalst that these
owners are forced to do as others.

THE MILLION AIRES AND
TAXES
Editor Statesman:
Since congress has shown a dis
position to make tho millionaires
pay their Just proportion of the
expenses of the government
through taxes under various clas
sifications, we may now expect a
number of them to suddenly
chsnge their views on prohibition
and come out on tho wet aide of
tho question in tho hope that tho
return to legalised liquor 'under
a heavy tax bill will provide rev
enue sufficient to materially
bring about a reduction In their
taxes.

A rather made-up princess," she
told him, laughing at her reflection
in the brightly illumined mirrors.
But she did look like a child's
dream of fairyland, with the glori
ous glittering head-dress, the filmy
white of the gown, her black hair
in long curls, like a doll's, case ad

"Dad, you could have had the

Now, dont you go throwing

She looked at him. His old, shiny

collar that was too large, and
frayed along the edges. Her heart
was bursting.
