ROOSEVBLT AND LUMBER
Repealing of tariff laws, particularly on lumber, anti
the planting of trees in the western states as means of get­
ting us out of the depressiou is a part of Governor Roose­
velt’s program which we can sec no reason for westerners
to be enthusiastic about.
Since the $3 additional tariff last June many sawmills
of Oregon have obtained sufficient orders to warraut open­
ing with employment of several thousand men. Others are
preparing to reopen and our only hope for recovery here in
Lane county and Oregon is for them to reopen, put our
people to work and bring in some new outside mouey.
The tariff has cut down the importation of Canadian
lumber from 60 million teet to eight million feet per month.
That means there are 52 million feet more for our mills
to cut.
For Governor Roosevelt to advocate abolishment of
this tariff is to give lumber a slap in the face. To plant
trees when timber land is a drug on the market and is being
taken over for taxes in areas as large as some New England
states is to our mind an absolute absurdity. Where lumber is
60 per cent of our industry here in the northwest we want
a practical working out of our problem not theoretical
humbug.

MR. COOLIDGE AND THE RAILROADS
Former President Coolidge has been asked to head a
non-partisan commission to study the problems of the rail­
roads. There is no question that the railroads of the United
States are in a bad way. and we cannot think of anybody
better than Mr. Coolidge to head up such a committee. Re­
gardless of politics, there is probably nobody in whom so
many Americans of all ranks have complete confidence as
Mr. Coolidge. He is noted for his level-headed, common
sense, and any report on the railroad situation which he
might put his name to would be taken very seriously by the
railroad people themselves, as well as by the general public.
In accepting such a commission for public service. Mr.
Coolidge furnishes a good answer to the old question:
“What shall we do with our ex-Presidents’ ’’
It is time to get at the roots of the railroad situation. It
seems to us that they are either too much under govern­
ment control or not enough: the present situation, in which
they are not allowed to accumulate a surplus in good times
to carry them through hard times, is unfair not only to the
railroads, but to the public which depends ilpon them for
service. Moreover, the whole railroad situation is changing.
The traveling public is relying less and less upon the rail­
roads for passenger transportation for short distances,
while the airplanes is threatening their long distance pass­
enger business. Package freight is moving more and more
by trucks, and every new mile of hard, paved highway cuts
into railroad earnings. On the face of things, it looks as if
there would soon be little business left for the railroads ex­
cept heavy hauling of bulk freight. We understand that the
commission which Mr. Coolidge is to head will look into
the whole transportation problem, and we have hope that
out of it will come a more intelligent and workable system
of transportation control.

PORTLAND SPLENDID HOST
To Portland is due a great deal of credit and- gratitude
from up-state for the splendid way she staged the American
Legion convention. In the beautiful decorations and ar­
rangements for entertainment Portland people spent much
time and money and acquitted themselves as the finest of
hosts. The advertising and good will the state gained by
the national convention will have a very lasting and bene­
ficial effect
Our friend and fellow citizen. Ben F. Dorris, executive
head of the convention committee, is also due much credit
for his tireless energy and capable management of the en­
tertainment program for the Legionnaires. His experience
at all former national conventions was of much benefit in
staging the very successful meeting at Portland.

SCHOOL BILL MUST FAIL
We think there are encouraging signs that the school
moving bill is doomed to failure. People are getting wise
that all is not in good faith that the school wreckers are
saying and doing. A good deal of the promoters’ efforts
have been in defense of their action. Common sense will
reign no doubt when the voters get to the polls. Any pro­
perty holder in Lane county who does not vote, when this
issue vitally affecting the value of his property is at stake,
would surely be guilty of gross neglect, and if the bill should
carry would start paying for his mistake on his tax bill right
away. The only way is to swat the measure and encourage
your friends to do likewise.

Oregon’s own show, the state fair, opens in Salem Sept­
ember 26. The first day is Lane County day, and everyone
who can should go to make it successful. Attendance at
the state fair and a view of the wonderful exhibits gives one
faith in his own state and renewed confidence in the future
of Oregon.
Q ifc FAMILY
/ DOCTOR
JOHN JOSEPH GAINES M.0
SUNLIGHT
The oldest subject “under the sun.’’ But how import­
ant—and how interesting! Wise the family doctor who
knows the uses of the God-given elements at his command,
within easy reach.
Natural sunlight is just right for the human being—and
for all life on the earth, animal and vegetable. It is a vital
necessity. A dearth of it will produce weak bodies, poor
blood, inefficient nerves— a weakened race of people. Out­
door dwellers in rural districts are more hardy and vigorous
than inhabitants of crowded cities.
Good, bright, yellow sunlight is rich in ultra-violet rays,
and here we step into up-to-date stuff. The ultra-violet ray
is the agent that converts the numerous lime salts of our
foods, into suitable form for appropriation by our bodies.
Lime, or calcium is an extremely important tonic for blood,
muscle and nerves. It is invaluable for the breathing ap­
paratus, and is supreme in maintaining the alkaline balance
in the body. It prevents acid destruction of vital organs,
such as the kidneys.
Sunlight is the principal factor in bringing about the
marvelous changes, so necessary to bodily vigor; it doesn’t
cost anything if you live in its vicinity, and are free to get
about in it.
In mountain regions, the nearer approach to the sun
gives a much greater volume of violet-ray. In lower levels,
the air Is more polluted with dust, smoke, and other outside
matters, which diminish the actinic effect of the rays.
Artificial instruments have been invented, whereby the
dot tor may administer sun-rays to patients in winter and
cloudy times, when out-doorabsorption is impossible.
