Commission of Inquiry
COMPARATIVELY little attention has been given by
western papers to-the news of the appointment of a
commission of inquiry into our national policy on interna
tional economic relations. The commission was appointed by
the Social Science research council, carrying out a suggestion-
of the Hoover committee on "social trends . The formation
of this new commission of inquiry now has the approval of
Pres. Roosevelt." Heading the commission is President Rob
ert M. Hutchins of the University of Chicago.
.What is its objective? Briefly the purpose of the inquiry
will be to examine the situation in this country with refer
ence to the conflicting policies of economic -nationalism or
internationalism, to canvass the directions and objectives
of American policy, and after such study to present recom
mendations for the consideration of the public.
- The need for the study is timely. In our opinion failure
cf American leaders to readjust our domestic policy to con
form with changes wrought by the world war, caused the
increase of stresses in international trade which eventually
crumpled completely and resulted in the devastating depres
sion. A realistic study of the situation then made it clear
that the unbalance of America absorbing most of the world's
free gold could result in inflation here and delay world recov
ery. It was a case where blind political theory held its
ground against intelligent economic conceptions.
Now there is again need for a study of economic trends.
We need -to re-examine our policies with respect to an inter
actional monetary standard, debts, foreign loans and other
capital movements, tariff barriers, quotas, etc. The remarks
of President Hutchins concerning the work of the commis
sion are worthy of quotation :
"Clearly the United States has reached the end of the first
chapter of her advent into international economic affairs. Sev
eral alternatives lie open. Shall the .United States now deliber
ately map out a sailing chart to guide her national policy in in
. teraational economic relations or shall she continue to pursue
an opportunist course with its Inevitably conflicting, and often
mutually exclusive, objectives?" r
"Shall she run. the risk of carrying forward her domestic
recovery -program without coordinating it wKb a consistent in-
!
ternational policy? Without a sailing chart, there is danger of
attempting to go in several directions at the same time. Can
. we plan our internal economic life intelligently without know
ing in -which direction we are moving, in the international
sphere?"
"The commission will not seek to do a research Job or
-make a scholarly Investigation. It is not interested in theorizing
about international relations, or in collecting data as a primary
end, although of course it will hare to assemble a great deal of
data. What It hopes to do is twofold: to frame a practical pro
' gram, recommending to the people policies which the country
may adopt; and to help educate the people, along with ourselves,
regarding a working program for the solution of these prob
lems." Some such organization, competently staffed and ade
quately financed, if it held close to realities, would be indeed
a brain trust worth while. We shall await their labors with
interest.
7 Republican Banquet
IT is too bad that Cheater Rowell of San Francisco came
clear up to Portland to give an address before the collec
tion of alleged republicans holding a Lincoln day banquet
last night. The banquet was chiefly a gesture of the party
hacks, the Mexican generals and the political straphangers
.whose efforts to retain party control postpone the return of
the party to public acceptance in Oregon. Under the aegis of
the immortal Lincoln the gimme boys strut for a night and
ao tne party prestige more harm than good. Everything is
niore or less of a "build up"; with the favorites pushed out
in front to bask for a moment in the public eye.
In the party it is of course necessary that there be
water-carriers to the elephant. The objection is raised when
the water carriers dress up in tights and spangles and try to
play the part of royal princess in the howdah. Republican re
habilitation will not come if it is left to the slate-farmers of
the Imperial hotel lobby. It will not come with lip-worship
al the shrine of Lincoln. It will come when its leaders forget
the party as pap and power and think of it as an agency of
public service, offering to the people a clean and conservative
and constructive stewardship of their political affairs.

A RECENT EDITORIAL in the
Journal of the American Medical as
sociation, states that only in recent
year has the true importance of
water in the
body begun to
receive the serl
ous attention it
deserves. With
out an adequate
supply of water,
the human body
would be unable
to perform the
many functions
necessary for
life.
Many drink
too little water.
But fortunately,
this carelessness
Dr. Copclani
is overcome by
the water found
in most foods. Did you know that
a diet-made up of the most common
foods contains much water and sup
plies tne body with almost the nee
easary amount? Some foods contain
a much as 90 per cent water. Many
fruits and vegetables carry even
more. Many foods yield at least half
their weight in water.
. Why Water Is Important
Why is water so important?
Though the actual mechanism is not
entirely understood, it is believed that
health, nutrition, growth and devel
opment of the ceils of the body are
founded on chemical reactions. Thefts
reactions can only be successfully ac
complished in the presence of an
adequate supply of water. If water
la lacking, the reaction la Incom
plete and the health of the body suf
fers, Since water is constantly lost
through the kidneys, bowels, lungs
and akin. It la Imperative that it be
constantly supplied In order that the
normal balance be maintained at an
times.
Nature provides a danger signal
for any marked deficiency of water.
This signal la thirst; It means that
the body needs more water. If the
signal la not heeded, damage results
and eventually it may lead to really
serious euecta.

Chamberlain, being a carpeter and
millwright of considerable ability,
told of his part In building rail
road stations at Parker station,
Junction City, etc. Also that he
was an assistant in the building
of the first flour mill near the
present site of the Oregon Pulp &
Paper company's mill In Salem.
Later he followed the work of a
pattern cutter In the Albany
foundry, the Dallas foundry and
finally in two or three of the lead

owned. Her dinners were sweet
with delicious flavors, and boun-
teousness knew no limit.
The birthday party enjoyed the
strains of "Auld Lang Syne,"
"When You and I Were Young,
Maggie," "Silver Threads Among

en days. After lx hours of re
newed fellowship, the members of
the glad party disbanded at a late
afternoon hour to return to their

(Thus ends the birthday party
report. The flour mill mentioned
stood on part of the site now oc
cupied by the present Salem paper
mill. It was at the corner of Front
and Trade streets, was erected by
the Willamette Woolen Manufac
turing company (first woolen mill
on this coast) In the sixties; was
acquired by R. C. Kinney St Co.,
was incorporated as the Salem
Flouring Mill Co., and. some years
before the paper mill was built,
burned down. While R. C. Kinney
was at the helm, the first flour and
wheat exports were made by that
mill to Europe from Oregon. The
Albany foundry was owned prin
cipally by Frank Miller, and its
foreman was John Holman, who
was long an old time resident of

leaves her luxurious apartment.
She rents a cheap furnished room
where she meets Valerie Blair, a
salesgirl. Valerie is very kind te
Stanley. Warning against poverty,
Valerie urges Stanley to return to

of Stanley's friends are at a loss

"Oh, I don't know, Sandra if
Drew left her flat. She wouldn't be
the first girl to rush into a spite

impersonal.
"I rather imagine Stanley would

I've heard this afternoon, there was
more to her than met the eye."
"Good heavens, Stanley was beau

"Oh, beauty of course." Sandra
shrugged. She had a habit of dis
counting beauty, she had never
found it necessary.
"Here come the men!" Marcia
caught the soft whir of Ned's motor
as it came through the distant gate
and purred up the drive.
There was a general stir of an
ticipation Diane Truesdale added
the merest touch of powder to her
nose and hoped her husband would
not kiss her. She did not care for
public demonstrations; in fact, after
three months of marriage she did
not care much for demonstrations
at any time. Marcia rang for cock
tails. Sandra did not move. She
continued to sit, slumped in her
chair, her eyes dusky and specula

years older than the others and
absolutely sure of what she wanted
and how to get it
The long gray car rolled up the
sweep oz graveled driveway and
a topped noiselessly before the
house. Four men climbed out and
came quickly around the south wing

on the terrace.
An hour later, Marcia and Ned
were alone in the living room. The
others had gone up to dress for
dinner. Marcia waited while Ned
ran over his afternoon mail.

of himself and. what he wanted
from life; as a consequence, he was

He was also seldom surprised.
He was not surprised, for instance,

He told her that he was in. that
he would be glad to see her and to
come up at once.
When she rang he admitted her
himself.
In the late afternoon sunshine
she found the room even more
charming than she had remembered
it Swept clean of smoke and peo

of pale pink snapdragons and the
still, polished surfaces of inani
