PRESIDENT BACKS
SEAL CAMPAIGN
Christmas Stamps Have Lowered
Death Rate From Tuberculosis,
Said; Is Humanitarian Work.
President Hoover's endorsement
of the Christmas seals, and the
work of the national, state and lo
cal tuberculosis associations of the
nation was received recently by
Louis G. Clarke, president of the
board of directors of the Oregon
association.
The message reads:
I commend to all our people the
annual sale of Christmas Seals con
ducted by the National Tuberculo
sis association and its affiliated
state and local associations. These
seals sold during the holiday season
provide the funds which make pos
sible the organized campaign for
the prevention of tuberculosis.
These efforts axe showing encour
aging results in a diminishing
death rate. The proceeds of the
seal sale make possible one of the
most valuable of all services to
mankind in helping to check and
destroy a disease which endangers
millions of homes and weakens mil
lions of citizens, especially the chil
dren and youth of the nation. It is
especially important at this time
to protect the health and physical
stamina of our people.
HERBERT HOOVER.
"Naturally, we are pleased to re
ceive these words from the presi
dent of our nation," Clarke de
clared. "We all recall with com
passion the announcement from
the White House two years ago
that tuberculosis had entered Mr.
Hoover's own family. The great
advance in the early recognition of
the disease, made in the past few
years by medical science played an
important part in restoring his son
to health."
Clarke declared that the increas
ing use of the tuberculin test and
X-rays as recommended by the
medical advisory committee of the
association and employed in the
tuberculosis clinics held under its
auspices has resulted in the early
discovery of many cases. "And it
is the early treatment of the dis
ease that brings the reduction of
the death rate, to a large extent"
Except in rare cases Christmas
seal funds rae not used to pay doc
tor's fees, Clarke said. "All serv
ices of physicians at the clinics
sponsored by the Oregon Tubercu
losis association are voluntarily
given as their contribution to the
campaign except in rare instances."

New System Gives
. U. O. Journalists
Real Experience
University of Oregon, Eugene.
A newspaper withc. it subscribers
would seem to be of little use in
the world, yet such t jwspapers are
of vital interest to students at the
University of i-egon school of
journalism. l our complete daily
papers are planned, written and
made-up by students of the school,
and carried through all normal pro
cedure to the point of publication.
There, work on the paper stops,
and all cease work ot discuss
the paper and hear criticisms from
the instructor.
This re-organization of the
journalism work, which has been
put into effect recently by Dean
Trie W Allen, is expected to Stive
the students much more practical
experience than ever before, since
nmrk is now done under the shadow
of an impending deadline. Classes
are now held only for the purpose
of discussion and criticism of the
actual laboratory work on the four
papers, named for the days on
which they are written, the Monday
Mail, Tuesday Tribune, Wednesday
World and Thursday Times.
Wire and syndicate services are
supplied to the students through
tv, cmirtpsv of the Eutrene Regis
ter-Guard. Further details of the
plan will be put into effect in the
future, Dean Allen stated,
