Katharsis . . G.O.P. got it
The ancient Greegs had a word,
"katharsis," meaning a thorough
cleaning out which might apply to
the human system or to the hog pen
or to a political party.
There is nothing that every hu
man organization needs so badly,
every once in a while, as a complete
"katharsis." It is the inevitable
tendency of all organized groups,
once they achieve power, to become
arrogant and to lose sight of the
primary purpose for which they
were organized. That is true of re
ligious, political, financial and all
other classes of human organiza
tions. All human effort to be effective
must be organized. But all organ
izations must be reorganized every
once in a while. The old leaders
must be deposed and fresh blood
taken in to the councils, and any
organization which does not do this
voluntarily is sooner or later forced
to do it by pressure from without
That, it seems to me, is what has
just happened to the Republican
Party Organization in America.
The time has come for re-organization.
Under our two party system
the public welfare is best served by
the best organized party, which
ever It may be. The remedy for
the ills of the Republican party is
the old Greek one, "Katharsis."
Travel . . and metal mike
I am writing this just an hour or
so before sailing on the Italian liner
Rex for my first visit to Europe.
Sixty-two is still young enough for
a man to go adventuring, if he has
the spirit of adventure in him, and
I never got over that
I am very curious to see whether
the foreign cities and peoples that
I have read about and studied about
all my life look anything like the
way I have pictured them. I have
knocked about the American Con
tinent and up and down the coasts
in ships a great deal but never be
fore had both the time and the op
portunity to cross the ocean.
What particularly interests me is
the ship on which I am coming
back, the Conte De Savoia, This is
the first big ship to be equipped
with gyroscopic stabilizers, invent
ed by my old friend, the late Elmer
Sperry. A gryoscope is a hard
thing to explain in words. It is hard
enough to understand it when you
see it working. It is, in effect, a
fly wheel so suspended that the axel
can tip in any direction. Sperry
discovered that a gyroscope al
ways tries to put itself in a position
where the axel is pointing to the
center of the earth. Out of that
discovery came the gyroscopic com
pass, which always points to the
North Pole instead of the magnetic
pole as the ordinary compass does.
Then came the automatic steering
device in which the gyroscope
keeps the ship's rudder true to the
course. Every really important ship
in the world is now steered by
"metal mike" as the Bailors call it
This same power of the gyroscope
is now being used to keep the ship
from rolling in rough water. It
works well on small craft and I
will tell you later how it works on
the first big ship to which it has
been applied.
Chicago next year
Jly Chicago friends are beginning
to get excited about the "Century
of Progress Exposition" which is to
be held in the city by Lake Michi
gan next year. The muncipality of
Chicago is in serious financial
stress, but there is still an awful
lot of money in Chicago, and prob
ably the most intense public spirit
that exists in any large city in
America.
the motto "I will." That is still the
Many years ago Chicago adopted
Chicago spirit Regardless of hard
times the leaders in Chicago's civic
life who set out to build the world's
greatest fair for 1933 have succeed
ed in raising the necessary millions,
and from what I am beginning to
hear about it I get the impression
it will be the most wonderful show
ing of the resources, the peoples,
the art and the scientific and tech
nical development of the whole
world that has even been brought
together.
At least, that is what my Chicago
friends say that it will be, and I
have never known Chicago to fail
when it really set out to do some
thing. Money ...... and prices
Thirty years ago W. J. Byran
nearly captured the Presidency
with his economic theory that far
mers would get more money for
their products if there was more
money in circulation. In a new
book published by the Century
Company or New York, F. M. Hun
tington-Wilson, who was "Under
Secretary of State in the Wilson ad
ministration, handles the same
theme, although along different
lines. The book is called, "Money
and the Price Level.
The author points out exactly
what President Hoover meant when
he suggested that the European
debts to this country might be set
tled in the currencies of the debtor
nations, clearing up that point so
that any layman can understand
the subject Briefly, Mr. Hunting
ton-Wilson argues that the alarm
ingly low price levels of wheat and
cotton, and of all other farm prod
ucts, are now being caused by the
high value of the American dollars
a3 compared with, the low values
of other countries.
The book has been written after
consultation with many of the lead
ing experts on finance in both Oc
cidental and Oriental countries,
among them being Mr. Rene Leon,
widely regarded as the leading for
eign exchange and metallic money
expert in this country.
Frank McDaniel of Hardmau
who has been herding sheep for
Ray Wright of McKinney creek,
was taken to the Veterans' hospital
at Walla Walla today where he
will receive treatment for a chronic
ailment.

Thousands of Smut Tests Start
In its determined search for all
the facts possible to aid Oregon
farmers in combatting stinking
smut of wheat, the second most
destructive disease of this crop, the
Oregon experiment station has re
cently made 2500 trial plantings of
wheat innoculated with more than
100 different "collections of smut.
The project is a cooperative one be
tween the United States department
of agriculture and the college sta
tion. The problem of finding good
resistant varieties has been greatly
complicated by the fact determined
by scientists at the station that
stinking smut is a complex organ
ism of many different strains acting
differently on wheat.

Rom. 13:1: "Let every soul be
subject unto the higher powers."
A man was trying to buy a little
wooded knoll in the Adirondacks.
Between it and the public road was
a stretch of meadow land, but he
did not want it So before buying
he had to make sure that he could
get across the meadow land to and
from the camp he was Intending
to build. He insisted the farmer
give him a right of way. When the
time came to draw up the deed, the
farmer was annoyed by the con
stant asking of the purchaser for a
right of way. Finally the farmer
said: "Didn't you know the law of
New York state compels a land
owner to give a right of way along
the shortest line between the prop
erty you buy and the main thor
oughfare?" The purchaser learned
some Jaw, but a great deal more
about religion. He saw that if he
kept a little territory of his heart
still under his control, Satan could
demand a right of way from it out
through the rest of his life into
the world. If Satan can get a lit
tle hold it is not long before he will
try to ravage and destroy the whole.
No surrender, but that which is
absolute is a surrender that counts.
We must either give all that we are
to Christ or have the grant we do
make Him prove ultimately null
and void.

"The original song had eight

The four verses not generally
used, were sung by the club, and
are given herewith:
Our glorious Land today,
'Neath Education's sway,
Soars upward still.
It's halls of learning fair,
Whose bounties all may share.
Behold them everywhere
On vale and hill.
Thy safeguard, Liberty.
The shcool shall ever be;
Our nation's pride!
No tyrant hand shall smite.
While with encircling light
All here are taught the Right
With Truth allied.
Beneath Heaven's gracious will
The stars of progress still
Our course do sway;
In unity sublime
To broader heights we climb,
Triumphant over Time
God speeds our way.
Grand birthright of our sires,
Our altars and our fires
Keep we still pure!
Our starry nag unfurled.
The hope of ail the world.
In Peace and Light impearled,
God hold secure!
