SIMONDS contrilmtes an interesting essay "From Wilson to Hitler", in the January "Atlantic Monthly". It is fifteen years he notes, since the inauguration of the league, of nations, which was the child of Woodrow Wilson's idealism. His essay is a study in the factors'which have rendered impotent the league as an effective agency for world peace. It failed, he says, because the nations which had security, like France, and had prosperity, like Great Britain and the United States, were unwilling to share with the weaker or poorer nations like Germany, Italy, Japan and Rus sia. The powerful nations of the world were not willing to compromise their sovereignty by giving to Geneva authority to weld the world under a revived "pax Romana", the peace of the old Roman empire, the only ope which prevailed over the civilized world f or any period of time. " The coup de grace to international rapprochement was administered by President Roosevelt himself when the vital issues of joint action to restore international trade came before the London economic conference in 1933. We have a feeling that future historians will set this down as the turn ing point in the Roosevelt era, unless there come a fresh turning point of greater importance in the months ahead. This decision to torpedo the London conference meant that the United States would develop a policy of economic na tionalism, which was the Very root of the economic difficul ties of our country and of the world. It meant a reversal of the entire, tradition of the democratic party at a time when that tradition (for freer trade) most needed translation into political policy. Mr. Simonds writes: H "At London all the nations, great and small, called in a conclave under the auspices of the League, were agreed! upon a programme: for them stabilization of the currency was the Inescapable first step to recovery. The' American delegation had : come to London in the same belief. But suddenly, from beyond the Atlantic, the imperious voice of the American president pro claimed that for his country stabilization was Impossible because it was likely to be disastrous to his economic programme.! As a . consequence the London conference collapsed." Simonds is concerned about this as a blow to the league; beyond that however, it was a blow to world recovery. To put nations back in economic straight-jackets means a buckling of their internal economy, and periencing since 1929. The path restoration, not only domestic closely interrelated. What will a .depression centuries long: quote again from Mr. Simonds: " "At the close of his latest book Bertrand Russell writes: - The same causes that produced the war in 1914 are still 'oper ative -and, unless checked by international control of invest- t ment and raw materials will inevitably produce the same effect ' but npon a larger scale. It is not by pacifist sentiment but by . . world-wide economic organization tjhat civilized man can be ' saved from collective suicide.' , "From Lord Russell's conclusion I do not see how any sin s' dent of contemporary conditions can dissent. Of course l am not - naive enough to believe that in the present temper of people, beginning with the American, any such control as Lord! Rus sell suggests is even remotely possible. But that Is why I see so little promise of peace in he world. For on no other basis - than equality in opportunity wrjuld t be possible to establish a partnership between people to prevent war." ' - p So the world reverts to closed systems, to intensified nationalism, to hate-breeding, fear-nourishing" attitudes which are the seeds of war. Legalizing THE Bend Bulletin was 'first to pop off regarding the propaganda service .which the -state relief committee has ' started with daily "releases" to newspapers of the state. Says the Bulletin: M "Presumably the business, of trying to get stuff Into the . papers is an SERA project. Who furnishes the materials, we wonder?" '. t , Also the postage stamps, three cents per release, i But press agentry is one of In Oregon . it is even proposed 'with the new "planning commission" for house bill noj 2 car ries a paragraph: ' t - i - "The board shall have power, to promote public interest in and understanding of Its work and the problems of state plan ning, and to that end may publish and distribute copies of its recommendations, advice, or any report resulting therefrom, and may' employ other lawful means of publicity and education " In plain language this means legalizing of, propaganda; which naturally vests a tremendous power in the commission, with public funds to draw on for its publicity promotion! ; A few of us transplanted mid-westerners who believe in clearing the snow off the walks were gypped Monday morning.

The one per cent rate is probably too low because of . the high cost of handling this class of business; but it will be a blow to loan sharks to put under restraint the lenders in the $30 and under classification where usury has been notor ious. - , . a .

The past week's activity in the lower house has done more to fan sentiment In favor of the one-house system than-all the arguments from Nebraska. The politicians in the lower house over reached themselves; and the public reaction is swift in condemnation. While Doc Townsend Is the present Irritant of Pres. Roosevelt (along with Huey Long), It Is a safe prediction the president will set him down as he did Upton Sinclair who projected his reforms. farther than the president was ready. to go.

Tet this glandular structure plays an Important part in the normal func tioning of the human body. It is 'intimately re lated to the pro cess of digestion. The pancreas Is located in the abdominal cav ity, just below the liver. It is a narrow and elon gated gland, ex tending from one aide of the body to the other. Its right end. the head, is the larg er one and Is di rected downward, tty. the tail, lies Dr. Copeland The left extrem across another or gun called the spleen. The pancreas is a vital organ. W just cannot live without it. Like any other structure within the body, it is subject to Irritation, Inflammation, ulceration or infection. At times atones may form in the ducts or tubes of the gland. Tumors may be formed In the pancreaa. Necessary to Digestion Since this organ Is a glandular structure It produces a secretion. The substances or juices it produces are called "enzymes". They help to di gest food. The "lipase" enzyme di gests protein. There la a third en zyme called "amylase' which digests starch. But the most Important secretion of this Interesting structure is a ma terial called "Insulin". For many years UtUe was known about this substance, but It has been found that when there Is a deficiency of this se cretion, the body la unable properly to utilize starches and sugars. This produces a condition known as diabetes. Contrary to a common belief, diabetes 14 not a disease of the kidneys, but 1s really due. as X have said, to a disturbance in the secre tions of the pancreas. . . Mild cases of diabetes can often be corrected by restricting the diet. Bat In many cases diet alone Is not suf ficient te overcome the disturbance. That Is why the discovery of Insulin was of very great benefit te man kind. -J',. ' -.J Though it does not cure diabetes it enables the patient te continue with his "work and daily routine. He la tree of the many serious and some times fata! complications of this dis ease. - It Is probable that at some future date a definite cure for diabetes will be discovered. The secret may be hidden In the mechanism of the pan creaa because there are many prob lems in connection with this gland which still remain unsolved. Answers te Health Qeeiiss W. H. L. Q.

HENDRICKS Ekin, known as the pioneer saddlemaker, was the man with Olley: S S This letter, dated Portland, January 16, comes to the Bits man's desk from Hon. E. M. Croi san, who spent nearly all his life in Salem and Marion county: S "Since I can remember I have always been a reader of . The Statesman. Last week yon had an article in your Bits for Break fast column which very much in terested me. It concerned the drowning of Mr. Olley above Sa lem away back in the forties. "I did not know of Mr. Olley, but I did know his companion who was with him on that unfortu nate occasion, and recall having heard him talk about it when I was a small boy. "This man was Richard H. Ekin, who was our neighbor as long as he lived. Richard H. , Ekin was an Englishman and well educated. He was educated for a sea ship captain, and he always kept a diary, even as a farmer, and he was a well to do farmer and stock raiser. "According to his diary - he. shipped, from Liverpool, England, on the barque Secrete, Captain Arthur White, October 4, 1S35, as a sailor, for Valparaiso, Chile, arriving In Valparaiso January 3, 1839. Bancroft's History tells us that he arrived in. Portland, Ore gon, on the ship Chenamns from the Sandwich Islands In 1S3I, and was . known as the pioneer saddlemaker. "I well remember the saddles he made. He reared a large fam ily and was an honest man and a good neighbor. "There is one son living. Charles H. Ekin, route No. 3, box J5, Salem." Richard H. Ekin made claim No. 44 and 45 for Oregon nnder the donation land law. He was thus rather early in the list of claimants. He received his pat ent , (deed) - from the TJ. S. gov ernment for, 40.17 acres,' for himself and wife, the tract being in township t south,, range . , 3 west. The land of $he' JUihee country club is a, part, of the Ekin donation claim,' and some of the land in the dairy ranch of. E. A. Rhoten was in the Ekin claim. V The drowning of Rev. James Olley has been told in this col umn several times a number ot versions of Its circumstances.- It occurred Dec 11th, 1842, in the Eola rapids of the Willamette river. Here is a version that has not been used before In this column, and one thai no historian has re corded: , In Rev. John H. Frost's Journ al, published . in the last four numbers of the Oregon Histori cal Quarterly, appears this Item, under date ot January 3, 1843: "A man by the name of Cooper arrived from - the Willamette bringing the sad Intelligence that Bro. Olley was drowned, on the 11th of December In the Willam ette river above the mission. He played out ot doors. Elsewhere arti- fcaiMinv . crossed this year; and what about winter; or was It a hard winter? instead of supplying: his radiator. kfast had gone in pursuit of some lum ber wltn an Indian canoe having Tonor man tn assist him. It appears they had bound a log eacn siae ot tne canoe. Wnen descending a rapid the canoe struck a snag, and both were thrown overboard. The young man escaped, but Bro. Olley waa drowned. . . . We all loved Bro. Olley very much. ... So the Lord has taken him to his reward. May we be also ready." Because Richard H. Ekin came with E. O. Hall from Honolulu to the Oregon country In 1839, and Hall was the American Board mis sion printer and brought a print ing press and type, a rift from the Hawaii missionaries to the Whit man mission, it has been surmised that Ekin was a printer, and if so one ot the first two printers in America west of the' Rockies and north of the Mexican (Calif ornia) line. The Dress and tme brought by Hall went to the mis sion at Lapwal (now Idaho.) The press is now with the exhibits ot the Oregon Historical society, at Portland. U James Oiler came with the Lausanne party as a mission car penter and preacher. The : ship Lausanne was loading In the har bor of New York. It sailed Oct. 9. 1839. Oct. . 2. on board the ship, James Olley married Adella J. Purklnffton. Her maiden nama was Adelia J. Judson, a sister of Rev. L. - H. Judson, who i also j came, with his family, on the Lau sanne. Mr. Olley had started the' rnn. struction ot a house, which be came the third residence! for whites on the site of Salem. It stood .near where the Steeves building, 347 Court street, occu pied by the Eoff electric concern, now is. When completed, tha house was occupied by the widow ana auo the family of her broth er. Rev. L. H. Judson. Mrs. Ol ley became the second wife ot Rev. David Leslie Jan. 7. 1844. She outlived Mr. Leslie manv years, and for a generation she was among the most nromfnent of .Salem oillxens, in supporting c a a r c n activities and admin istering to the needs of the then hard pressed Willamette univers ity. ; -i , , . : ; The "man by the name of Cooper," who reported the drown ing ot oiiey to Rev.

She plays no favorites; and Shene's got the other girls for customers tn need of friendship." "Never plays favorites, eh?" "Well." Loring shrugged, "I never yet heard of a woman in the South Seas that they didnt tell tales about. -Some say it's Shene himself." Loring finished his drink. "Another?" Mark offered. "With alacrity I" the beachcomb er exclaimed. "Ill cadge 'em as long as youll buy emP "I wonder " said Mark over his second glass, "why she's interested in the natives. The Tongans were formerly cannibals, weren't they?" "Were!" exclaimed Loring. "Say, there's long pig eaten today back in the Tongataba hills 1 It's a religious ritual!" . , , "Lord I" exclaimed Mark, shocked out of his casual attitude. That s a swell place for her to bel" "Not so dangerous as all that," said Loring. "In the first place she's friendly with 'em.

And all this popular idea about a big pot is pure xairy taie; iney alwavs roast 'em." Mark thought of Captain Rawlin son and his story on the Colin, and chuckled.

Hadnt he. hoped for Just this aa opportunity to disgust himself with her? Well, here he had that opportunity ; here was his chance to see her at her worst; why wasn't he pleased?
