Up to the Courts FEDERAL districts courts have been treating new deal laws rather roughly in recent days. Federal Judge Grubb in Birmingham said TVA's program of going into competition with existing utilities was unconstitutional. Judge Nields in Wilmington declared the famous section 7-a could not be made to apply to the Wierton Steel Co. because its hiring of labor was not interstate commerce ; and Judge Dawson of the same court ruled that NRA was unconstitu tional as .applied to coal mining because it was not "inter state commerce" within the meaning of the constitution. These cases will be appealed and the supreme court will soon be confronted again with very crucial questions as to the powers of congress. Whether the high court having zig zed on the gold cases will decide it is time to zag is an inter esting question. Prohibition was vigorously condemned because of the great number of. cases which piled into the federal courts as a result of the federal laws. But the alphabetical agencies of the government have .heaped high the dockets, the total list now reaching 27,800 civil and criminal actions, greatly bur dening the leal machinery of the government. While de cisions in some of these test cases may clear the air, it is al together probable that litigation will continue to be heavy because individual rights are at stake; and court tests will be made to settle them. The hinge.in the collective bargaining cases is the inter state character of employment: whether putting men to la bor is part of interstate commerce which comes under the powers of congress. If the high court sustains the lower court and holds these relationships are intrastate then the whole national recovery program collapses because different states will take different actions. Before Roosevelt such was the , attitude of . the1 federal government. While there is much to be said for this national attack on a problem so widespread there is much also to be said in favor of preservation of state authority and responsibility. In a way our whole structure of government now comes under the review of the high court. Decisions in pending cases go beyond mere decision on specific points to the very heart of the structure of states federated under a central government. The constitution provides that powers not spe cifically granted to the federal government are reserved to the states or to the people. In the pending questions the court virtually has the power of repeal of this article ten of the amendments. Mr. Justice Hughes and his colleagues have serious work ahead. " The Lab orer HODERATE increases in J f A determined upon by the tee of the legislature after a full and cautious consideration of the 1935-1936 budget of state income and outgo. No valid reason now exists for that committee to revoke its decision. Governor Martin, who takes the entire committee fo task, ignores careful study the ways and means group has given to state finances. He overlooks his frequent statements . that he is a "national administration man" and as such is back of "all administration ship at Washington ha3 already restored two-thirds of fed eral pay cuts and advanced the final restoration up to April 1, 1935, instead of July 1 as originally planned. Governor Martin's stand is inconsistent. state should not be singled out tinue to receive the drastic years in the face of the higher produced. Nor should these workers be intimidated by threats of being fired if they register Most of the sum the state torations this biennium an to $400,000 would be provided sound plan of the ways and means committee to recapture from independent boards and commissions savings made in 1935-1936 salaries over the 1931-1932 base pay. The small net charge on the general fund tions is a small fraction of the tion the administration seeks. The ways and means committee went into the salary matter with extreme care. It required of Oregon in 1935-1936. It was aware of Washing tonVrelief demands. It exercised caution in estimated 1935 1936 state income. After such marshalling of the facts, staunch democrats like Senators Strayer and Hess took the lead in pushing, for salary restorations. The committee de serves no rebuke; its stand on salaries is just and fair. It rightfully exercised its legislative prerogative in deciding upon a 50 restoration. It should not back down. If Cover nor Martin remains adamant to state workers, let him take sole responsibility. The Merriam Recall fflHE house of representatives set itself a poor precedent JL in passing a resolution supporting Howard Merriam in . his recall battle in Lane county. As individuals the members may support him to the man and woman, but as a body it moves with impropriety to voters in Merriam's legislative sentation they desire and to recall him at their pleasure. With the recall of Merriam we have not the slightes sympathy. It is an arrogant move to support the threats of a well-organized group ; with a basis very flimsy to stand on. Merriam was elected in November when the Townsend agitation was running high, on After coming to Salem he replied to an inquiry about the resolution saying it was being referred to a committee and he would endeavor to expedite action. At no time did he promise to support the Townsend plan ; and he did expedite action on the resolution. The cost of the recall will be $4000. It will come after the session is ended and Merriam's work done unless there be a special session. The county would not choose his sue cessor, but' the governor would select one. The recall appears to us wholly unjustified, a threat to the exercise of indepen dent judgment by a legislator, "pressure politics" which in hard reaction.

Copeland, M.D. XT IS Quite the rule to think that a pain or ache is a symptom due to neuritis, neuralgia, arthritis or rheu matism. These common disorders closely resemble one another, but it is unwise to make your own diagnosis and to depend on self-" treatment. Neuritis, as Its name Implies, is an inflammation of a nerve. Oae nerve or several nerves may be Involved. If one alone Is affected the pain Is felt along the course of that particu Dr. Copeland lar nerve. For example. In sciatica the pain la felt along; the thigh and leg. marking the course of the Inflamed sciatic nerve. Neurltlscan sometimes be traced to a- fall or an injury. It may be due to damage that was overlooked in the beginning, before tbe pain or discomfort begins. When the nerve becomes Inflamed the pain Is acute. Toxins or poisons circulating through the system are capable of causing neuritis. Such harmful agents can often be traced to some center of Infection, such as are found In diseased tonsils, adenoids, and dis eased nasal sinuses or teeth. Toxin in Drug PoUoming Toxins may also be liberated where there Is drug poisoning, for example In chronic alcoholism, or lead or mer cury poisoning. Lead poisoning used to be a rather common cause of neuritis. It is a dreaded complaint of painters and other workers who have contact -with lead. Inflammation of a nerve may fol low certain InfecUons, such as grippe. Influenza, diphtheria, pneumonia and acute rheumatic fever. "Berl-berl" is a "vitamin deficiency" disease re sulting from a lack of vitamin B in the diet. Wben neglected tbis ail ment leads to severe neuritis and In advanced cases may result In paraly sis. Complete cure of neuritis depends entirely upon removing the cause of the Inflammation. Relief may be ob tained, but to have a cure the un derlying cause must be determined. In severe cases It may be necessary to keep that part of the body .In volved free from motion. Splints may be used for this purpose. Com plete rest is most essential. Relieving Pain Heat applied by hot water bags, electric pads and lamps is beneficial. Internal medication should only be taken upon the advice of a physician. Since neuritis is usually caused by the absorption of the body poisons, getting rid of these Irritating sub stances will hasten convalescence. Dally elimination is Important. The sufferer should be encouraged to drink a gla!s of water every hour, to dilute the Irritating poisons and to eliminate them as quickly as pos sible. The diet should consist of food that Is simple, nutritious and easy to di gest. AH fried and greasy foods are to be avoi&ed, as well as an excess of salt, pepper, spices and other condi ments. The diet should be varied and include an abundance of fresb fruits and vegetables. Answers to Health Queries T Q. My little girl has been both ered with thread worms, please tell me what to do? A.

HENDRICKS Redington recalls, time when Hi Gorman was the Statesman press sweat power: Some readers remember a let ter in this column a few weeks back, in which J. W. Redington Joked the Bits man about old times and sent him samples of wild oats and other crops, includ ing a four-leaf clover; the clover being left out, whereat the Bits man came back with the charge that southern California cannot grow four leaf clover since that state turned down Sinclair's EPIC plan and Dr, Townsend went to Washington. S Mr. Redington's address it National Military Home. Califor nia, where he is in a wheel chair. He comes back with another let ter, dated, "same hospital and ditto same -surroundings, ditto same month and ditto year, 1935." and addressed to "chief inkstigator Bread for Breakfast." It reads: s s s "End. pi. fl. my thanx for the ample acreage awarded my freak letter, together with my regrets' at falling to enclose that four leaf good-luck clover, which I had left in my other vest, this being a wise warning against owning more than one rest. And if you own only one pair of pants, U R sure to take your keys along when you go down town in the morning. And when you find another four-leaf clover enclosed, you will admit that I am making good. Some captious crltlx may tell you that this Is not even horse clover. But what do you care so long as any substi tuting druggist tells you that it is just as good? "Agricultural Dept. Xpert have estimated that if allowed to make full growth, your wild oats would make a ton of hay to ten acres, but I have anticipated all that by harvesting the oats, and, as your fiscal agent, have donat ed the entire crop to the Home for Mlsmated Mocking Birds, sub ject to your approval, of course, which doubtless will be fast forthcoming. Bill for harvesting to follow under separate cover. "Also thanx for the copy of The Statesman, which Is now a newspaper that would be a cred it to any community. What a contrast to the little four-page Statesman that we used to inflict on the people in 1875, with its dispatches swiped from the Ore gonian of the day b4, and its stingy showing of ads., many of them dead. At 9 p. x. we would wake up HI. Gorman from a sound sleep on the folding-bench, and he would start grinding out the immense 500-copy edition on the sweat-power press. Hi. was a good old soul, with no Maxim silencer on his load-speaker snor ing apparatus, and his boy Bud dy was much admired for his ac tivity in canning dogs. The Statesman shop furnished the empty oil cans and the rope from the bundles of paper, and when a dog dove down those front stairs with can attached, there was enough noise - to annoy people playing poker in the Idaho sa loon, on the first floor. "Please lei me xprees the hope that you will neglect no oppor tunity to tell the world that Sa lem has one of the best climates on earth no Ice, no snow, no flies, no fleas, no bugs, no bunk, no saxophones. Also do not for get to often quote that pretty poem tnat U & I and Joyce Kil mer collaborated on, part of which ran 'Hot dogs are eaten by you and me, but only God can make a tree.' Bes.ide8 which, you will do well to tell people to fol low Dr. Coue's famous prescrip tion of repeating: 'In every way, 'most every day, by eating hay. and riding in a one-hoss shay. I keen all ills away'. Am also glad; to enclose a paper-napkin saddle blanket to cinch around your goldfish on cold nights when the thermom. drops down to 55 above. Neglect of such courtesies is what causes goldfish to leave home. "Still hoping the same as b4. etc., . "Very t. y.. J. W. REDINGTON." S Mr. Redington, with the Red In red ink, sent a substitute for a four leaf clover this time. What he writes about Hi Gor man Is no joke. HI was a real person. His weight was over 200 pounds, a lot of the avoirdupois was muscle, and he was the sweat power of the Statesman newspa per press. Tbe 1871 Salem Di rectory had this line: "Gorman, H., laborer (color ed), N. E. cor. High and Court. That is where the Senator hotel is now. By 1S74 the Gorman family had moved, for tbe Direc tory of that year located him on the north side of State street be tween Front and Water streets. There was a Mrs. Gorman, and a son Mose, and daughter Sis, all of whom Mr. Redington has overlooked, but so doubt knew. Everybody in Salem knew every body else in Salem in that day. Bud was the baby of the family. Hi Gorman ran the Statesman' sweat press up to the fall ef: 1884, when a steam engine was Installed. A new press came a' year or two later, another one some years thereafter, and the present one not long ago. Hi Gorman was' physically strong, and he was an average citizen, though he never learned to read or write. But he could count. That is, he could count 10, on his hands, and, by the same sign, he learned to count 100 after he became the sweat power for The Statesman. Very simple, 10 piles of 10 each. Thus he counted out the papers to the carriers. S S Mr. Redington is easy on Hi. He does not tell that ' his deep sleep, which was generally on the feed board of the press, was often superinduced by whis key or other intoxicants. But there is no record of his ever get ting too drunk to operate the press. However, he had a very strong stomach. There never was enough liquor on hand at one time to make Hi that drunk. Among the old timers, 'as Mr. Redington would testify, the Gor man family furnished a good many jokes that added to the joy of living in pioneer Salem. Some of them unprintable if there is such a thing in these degenerate days. S W U In that period The Statesman office was at 162 North Com mercial, where the Shanghai cafe is now. The Idaho saloon was owned by J. C. Adklns, and he lived on the southeast corner of Liberty and Chemeketa, where the Smith Watklns garage is now. Later, the Statesman office occupied the whole building, in cluding the room In which had been the Idaho saloon. That was then the Stewart block, afterward the (W. F.) Boothby block.' It is yet owned by the Boothby heirs. MATTENS HOME AGAIN BETHEL. March 1. After three months In California Mr. and Mrs. E. E. Mutten returned to ' t fa i a district on Thursday. They were with relatives in Gil- roy, Covina and in the San Ber nardino mountains. , The change has been beneficial to Mr. Mat ten's health. SYNOPSIS '.

Presently he Identified him as one of his father's self-satisfied yes men, a bird named Aldrich or some thins; like that Celebrating, had a rjrl with him, not his wife either. That pest he had seen at the garden-party was his wife. Seward was disgusted. Same sit nation every w here beautiful girl, beaming at an eld goat for what she could get out of nim. But how could any girl like, this Aldrich? Alspangh, that was the name. Yet there aha was chattering and smQ ing and pretending she was bavins; the time of her life. Seward had an idea he'd seen the girl before sometime, but he could n't remember where. Anyway, Als pangh was a good picker. Of coarse at his age, he would go for some body young and fresh. Yon didnl often see a girl with a prettier com- tlexion. Made all the other women i the room look shriveled, pasty. She had other charms, too; her eyes, even at this distance, sparked blue fire; a lovely soft shadow moulded the round chin; shapely shoulders, and a gallant carriage of the head. Then he noticed, with a curious sense of relief, that she was the only woman in the room not smoking. At that he played with a sodden impulse to go over and join them. He was the boss's son. so Alspaugh wouldn't object. Before he could set on the inclination, they got op and went out. Now he wouldfnever see her sgain. What the hell! Girls were all alike.

"He came in late and was looking very tired then, sir." Jasper hesitated. To be jerked from sleep after a night out was what the boy deserved, but why be brutal. "Don't wake him," he said, "bat when he comes down, tell him I should like to see him at my office as soon as possible." It was nearly three o'clock when Seward arrived at his father's of fice. With the recuperative power of youth, his appearance in no way suggested a night of drinking. A thrill of pride stirred Ingram as he thought, for the thousandth time, "He's a handsome devil I Hand some, yes. in spite of the fact that his usually rmiliDg fact was now set in severe lines and reproach and anger were in his eyes. There was no cordiality in his voice as he asked: "You wanted to see me, sir?" "Yes. About yesterday," Ingram said. You re entitled to an expian WEST SALEM, March 1.

A new type of program is being introduced In the primary divi sion of the Methodist . Sunday school of which Mrs. Edson Corn stock is tbe superintendent. Esch Sunday one of the children gives a solo and another child tells a story. Last Sunday Zephuy Giv ens and Margaret Scarth played en ted as girls once were! What -would Ingram have given, at that moment, had he been able to look his son squarely in the eyes, bol stered in the atom of a dean eon science? Something of his father'i weari ness and remorse may have reached and touched Seward for his irony deserted him. "You might have left just her alone" he said the muscles of his face drawn by the sobs he fought back. To cry, like the little boy his father thought, himl To avoid that ignominy, bs turned and ran blindly out of tie office. He would have slammed the door had not a patent spring, frus trating the attempt, dosed the door behind him in majestic silence. Jasper Ingram, stunned and trou- bled, sat in his great ofiV ponder ing the problem of fathering a Man. Seward's bitterness, a little due to bis passion for Arline, was, in large part, born of an obscure, un acknowledged love for bis father. Hitherto there had been only dis tance, not antagonism, between them. Always he had been proud of his father, proud of his appear ance, his friends, his admitted power. Now all that was gone. The room just outside Ingram's private office was empty when Sew ard burst into it and he paused for a moment to regain control ef him self. He choked back the hysterical impulse to cry, lighted a cigarette, jerked at his tie, and smoothed his hair. At that instant, the door to the main office opened and a girl, her hands full of letters, came in. He stared at her angrily, resenting her intrusion. But the resentment died quickly as he recognized in her the girl who had been with Alspaugh the night before. She looked a little self-conscious, as though she recognized him, and Seward said, "Oh, good afternoon I " Then spurred by memory, he added, "I saw you out at the house the other day, didn't IF "The day of the party. I did some work for Mr. Ingram. It was wonderful 1" "Not much fun for you. I should think." "Oh, but It watt I saw it all from the window.
