A Chance to Dress Up Are Salem and Marion county going to take full advant age of the opportunity afforded by current and pending high Wnvrmtnt to dress ud the "show windows of Ore- o-nn'a eanital city? The question arises in connection with the highway de partments program for landscaping and lighting the north and south Pacific highway approaches and entrances to the city. The north entrance, through the artistic new $300,000 nmu hetiMth the Southern Pacific tracks, has been completed with ornamental lights and the parking strips have been graded and are ready for planting. Utilization of the lights, however, except those incident to the protection of traffic hinges upon the agreement of the city to maintain them and pay for the power consumed. The extent and nature of the plantings depend upon the willing ness of the city or county, or both to provide the water and care necessary to the growth and preservation of such shrubs and trees as are planted. , From the south the highway approach to the city has been widened and Improved as far north as the junction of the 12th street cut-off road, and extension of that improve ment to the south end of Commercial street Is planned for the coming year, providing a fine four-lane roadway from the city limits to the "Y" at the Liberty road junction. The wide, sweeping roadways and the two triangles formed by the in tersection "Ys" offer an unusual opportunity for roadside beautification at little cost Funds are available to the highway department to grade nd shape the road banks and the triangles and provide shrubs and trees, but the state has no money at its disposal for the maintenance of such plantings. If beautification of this type is desired the city and county must undertake to provide for their future care, as is required of other cities and counties. The time to take advantage of this opportunity Is while .the work is in progress. An Essay in Futility The most thankless job in the world seems to be to get women to look for their beauty aids in healthful exercise and correct diet rather than cosmetics. At least that Is the con clusion reached by a distinguished scientist who points out that for countless generations the futile effort has been made to save women from themselves by the expenditure of tax payers' money to reduce "as far as possible the hazards upon which the women of the day squander their annual billions," much of it on poisonous mixtures. Speaking at the centennial celebration of the birth of Charles Frederick Chandler, first public health chemist in America, Dr. Haven Emerson, director of public health of the College of Physicians and Surgeons, wondered whether this protective effort was worth while so far as women and their cosmetics were concerned, when he remarked: "As one looks about the cadaveric linger tips, the enameled toe-nails, the deformed eyebrows, the tilled facial creases that try to reveal charac ter but are cheated out of It, the hectic cheek reminiscent of the fever ward of a tuberculosis hospital, the Ill-assorted daubs of aniline upon the lips, one wonders If It Is worth the while of the congress to try to enact - protective legislation, or health officers and their laboratories to attempt enforcement of local ordinances, to save a beauty-mad generation from those qualities of cosmetics that threaten to replace the bloom of health with one more appropriate to a dish of wax fruit. The delusion persists that such artificiality makes for beauty and attractiveness of the fair sex when in the opinion of mere man, they have the contrary effect. The calcimined face, or the brazen crimsoned cheeks, the scarlet lips, the blood stained finger nails, the plucked eyebrows and other aids of camouflage are repulsive rather than alluring. These inartis tic efforts to paint the lily and perfume the rose are frequent ly so absurd as to be ridiculous. But what is to be done about it? Nothing, for it has been trait of femininity since history first dawned. The tombs of ancient Egypt reveal that cosmetics had attained a high perfection 5000 years ago, and the records of other nations of antiquity testify to their vogue. Even the women of primi tive peoples surviving today persistently try to improve upon nature sometimes with grotesque result. So men might as well grin and bear It and philosophically get what quiet amusement tney can out or leminine lolly. Sauce for Goose, Sauce for Gander Along back in 1932, when Mr. Roosevelt was first a can didate for president, he promised to reduce the Hoover budget by 25 percent. Mr. Hoover asked him, "Just where would you cut expenses?" Mr. Roosevelt gave him an answer, which he could well apply to budtret cutting now. when his budget is about three billion dollars larger than the Hoover budget of 1932. Mr. Roosevelt said: You cannot go very far with any real federal economy without a complete change of concept of what are the proper functions and limits of the Federal government Itself. You have got to stop the centralising first, and then you can stop the spending. Ever since the days of Thomas Jefferson the Idea of centralising control of everything In Washington has been the exact reverse of the democratic concept. And In the latter pnuosopny we would approach the problem of the budget. It is futile, said Mr. Roosevelt in 1932, to expect "any im portant economy" from an administration "committed to the idea that we ought to center control of everything in Wash Ingon as rapidly as possible." For centralization of control ne cessarily involves the creation of "the unprecedented bureau cracy that has assembled in Washington In the past four years." It involves the establishment of the innumerable boards and commissions which have grown up as excrescences on the regular system. And it involves an increase of Federal expenditures at "the most reckless and exaravagant pace 1 have ever been able to discover in the statistical record of any peacetime government anywhere, any time." Mr. Roosevelt however has continued the process of cen tralizing all control not only in Washington but in his own hands. He has enormously increased the bureaucracy, and all of his "must" measures, for which he has called a special ses ion of congress, call for still greater centralization and mul tiplication of bureaucracy. So if he wants to balance the bud get, as he advised Hoover, he must have "a complete change of concept of what are the proper functions and limits of the federal government itself." j Life's Little Lessions j ?J AN" ABOUT THIS J rTdWl i I Wiftti Wl Jrgjg?, I. hj News BfHIN By PaULMaLLON Jg (World Copyright 1937 by King Features Syndicate, Inc.)

The proposal would require the 'social security board to establish an elaborate and expensive nation wide organization and accounting system the cost of which would be indirectly added to the nation's bill for service." The resolution as adop ted sets forth that the "medical profession has always been willing to give of Its utmost for the care of those unable to pay and there Is ample evidence that the needy throughout the United States are being given a high quality of medi cal care.. The medical profession Is ready and willing to consider with various agencies methods of meet ing the problems of providing medi cal service for all requiring such service and not able to meet Its en tire cost, fiince "these are problems for local and state consideration and are not problems suitable for action on national scsle of federal government," the committee recom mended that the joint' resolution should be defeated. Approximately 150 delegates had registered by Thursday noon and it is expected the 200 mark will have been reached by this evening. The delegates were In attendance at numerous scientiflo sessions dur ing the forenoon where they listened to half hour talks and took part In discussions. Speaking during the The Beason By Mary Graham Bonner "What la the trouble, Christo pher?" asked Rip. "I dropped it." "You dropped what?" asked Rip.

"So you were hurrying me and now you are causing the delay," bleated Sweet Face. "Don't be cross," cawed Chris to phen. "I'm as sorry as you are." "They began to search for the missing note and the money wrap ped In the piece of paper. In fact the lamb turned back with the ex press cart because Christopher was almost certain that he had dropped It when he had started hurrying Sweet Face. Rip Jumped out of the express cart and sniffed along the road and along the fields. "Look!" cawed Christopher. "I'm looking," barked Rip. "But 111 be able to sniff Willy N lily's hand on the paper and find It that much sooner." They looked in the tall grass of the meadows, they looked along the roadside. Rip sniffed.

For whatever It Is worth, their latest private guess is that this Is a good time to buy stocks. Apparently a lot of them fol lowed their own guesses as washing- ton brokers reported much of what they call "good buying" for cash by authorities here since the big break Monday. Of course no authority bought on borrowed money. They are too wise for that But their reasoning about buylng-for-cash-lnvestment went something like this: If we are not to be forced Into de flation, then pessimism has s gone too far. If we are to be forced into Inflation, cash Is not a good thing to have on hand. Hands-off Policy One Inner group here has been trying to get Mr. R. to "do some thing." They even wanted him to rush out with a statement that "everything is fundamentally sound," either at his federal reserve board dedication speech or sooner. This group did not Include the ex perienced financial advisers In fed eral reserve and the treasury. They counseled hands-off. There were only a few good things which could be done, such as (A) releasing more gold, and (B) starting heavy open market operations. The gold move ment could easily have been made at any time. It Is only a bookkeep ing transaction. The open market operations would do the same thing, In a harder way, t e. give the banks more money to lend. But these things would not force the banks to lend. Either move would only be a gesture. A third thing mentioned was the prospect of blaming It all on the bankers and brokers again, hanging some of them In oratorical effigy. While- that is considered politically desirable, and may be attempted. all realized It would not meet the situation either. Wisest of wall Streeters did not call for any government action. They thought their main trouble was that there had been too much of It already. Arkansas Election The Arkansas senatorial election waa advertised as a new deal defeat, and It was. But It held a deeper and different lesson than that The victor, John Miller, Is a man very much like Senator Joe Rob inson whom he' now replaces, for Roosevelt on some things, against him on others He was elected by the old Robinson organization, plus Mrs. Caraway, plus his own personal popularity as a levelheaded fellow. Against htm was a for-Roosevelt-on-everythlng governor who had complimentary letters from Farley, Madame Secretary Perkins, Wallace and Harry Hopkins. The dor. (Carl Bailey) obtained the nomination through th state organization, and not by a party primary. He advertised bis proximity to the presidential coat tails. So the Miller candidacy was a re bellion against the democratic ma chine ticket nomination of Bailey. and for the first time since anyone can remember, the ticket was un successful in a southern state. The decision upheld the hand of congressmen who have been resisting the Rosoevelt-on-everythlng theory; It repudiated a hand-made national- machine ticket for the first time in the south. But if anyone thinks It means Roosevelt would not carry Arkansas today he Is welcome to go down there and try It No one here will. Wagner Forced Strauss Nathan Strauss, capable new housing administrator, was appoint ed only because Senator Wagner forced his selection. This was na tural. The 5J,000.000 new federal program for low cost housing and slums clearance got through the last congress only because Wagner pushed the administration Into It. There Is little hope near the top that any great measure of economic or reform success will attend the venture. No one considers it more than a beginning which probably will not be followed up strongly. Publicity about the appointment over-measured It as a great blow to Interior Secretary Ickes. His candi date was Howard Gray, head of PWA housing, but there was some back stage dealing beforehand which in dicates ickes will be in the front If not In the center of the housing picture. Incidentally he also seems to be back In the good graces of the White House. Advised by FDR .Mr. R. himself, In person, had at least a little undetected hand In building up the backfire in labor ranks which Is bringing John Lewis and William Green Into the same room for a few hours, at least Out on the recent western trip, groups of AFL and CIO people (not together) dropped In for a presiden tial handshake. The Inside reports to both headquarters here indicate the president told each group sep arately thai they should not waste their strength fighting each other. but must get together if they were not to lose their power.
