T)ic east is today .more radical thon the west, accord ing to Dr. A. A. llcrlc, the distin- Knislicil Massachusetts clergyman nnd one of the principal speakers nt tho University oE Oregon Sum mer school. Dr. Berle, in fact, re fuses to consider Oregon n radical state nt nil. "Real radical ism, as I conceive it." he says, "does not consist in mere drastic changes in the form of government, but in changes which vitnllv determine tho futuro course of civilization. Tho influence of inuro legislation on progress is often wildly exaggerated, nnd I think it is so exaggerated in Oregon. IUdlcaUftm of Kant "The deep seated radicalism of Knst deals more with snhstanco thnn with form. 1 think that the chnngen in legal proceeduro alone, which have been enacted in Massachusetts this venr. with their effect upon civil rights, arc more far-reaching nnd important than any mere govern mental changes. As is usually the case, tho things of tho greatest moment am tho things nttrnct the least attention. The Massachusetts legislature during the past winter has had before it measures affect ing industrial and social relations which involve more thorough-going changes in iwlicy and purposo than almost any state in tho uuion.These measures havo dealt with child labor with housing problems, with tho nn-1 turo of contracts, with the jurisdic tion of curls, with compelling the carrier to share all evidence he has collected with the plaintiff in per sonal injury cases, nnd with the government of public institutions. "Tho East is not going to full in to lino or join in this type of'wbnt might be called New Zealand nidi culi&m, which is supposed to be sweeping from West to Kast. It is going to be a totally different kind of radical doctrine that is going to cup turo the Eastern states. It will como from England rather than from Oregon, nnd will deal with the substnuco of human rights rather than with forms of government. The East is closely watching the reforms in England for which Chancellor of the Exchequer David IJoyd-Qeorgo stands and the future of tho eastern stale is going to be tremendously affected by tho way in which these work out. Tho Eastern coast is in some way infinitely near er to Europo than to tho Pacific slope. For instance, in Europo it is ever so much easier for me to get iuy home papers and news from homo than it is out here. The stream of travel that way is thicker, and tho means of emmunicntion ensier. i:at nnd West Centered "I do not expect to see tho Initia tive, Referendum nnd Recall travel much farther East than they havo nlready. Tho "fundamental reform ers" of the oust do not regard these measures as effective, and doubt their applicability to tho highly con centrated civilization of Eastern in diisirul centers. "In general, there is this difference between the East ami West that I liuvo ebserved: Tho Went takes a new idea more rapidly, iicIh upon it moro speedily, Inundates it into law with less reflection and it is after it is passed that tho West spends near ly a generation modifying it. In the East (ho process is exactly re versed, JdwH lire subject and pos sible modification before being trans lit) into Action, lint when the time for aqtiou comes, Look out I The progreMiv dens of Englund ami lirmmny arc golinr to bo applied with Awt'ilyan t'ffeuiivt-neW w WESTCONSERVATIVE That tho art ot filling toth. with foreign substances was known to var ious aboriginal tribes ot tho Ameri cas hundreds ot years heforo tho Co lumbian era, perhaps oven a thous and years ago, Is a fact that hat boon known to archaeologists for some time. Among tho lending Anthro pologists ot this cocuntry Is Dr. Mar shall H. Snvlllc, I.oubnt professor of American Archaeology In Columbia University. In his scientific Investi gations In tho wcet coast prpvlncos ot Ecuador nnd Colombia he has mnilo many valuable discoveries. Ills first visit to this region was mndo In tho summer of 190G. In n commun ication to tho International Congress ot Americanists held at Vienna In J 908, among other Interesting details was tho following account dealing with tho subject of decoration ot the teeth: "Another custom which wo found In Ksmeratdas, and which, so far as wo arc aware, Is not present In any other part ot South America, Is the decoration ot tho teeth by tho Inser tion or Inlays In small perforations cut In tho enamel ot tho upper In cisors. This custom ot decorating tho teeth was quite common In var ious parts ot Mexico, whero different settings were used. In tho Mayan area, u far south as SalTador, tho object most often used for the Inlay Vas ladeitc. In Mexico, for example In Oaxaca, I havo found hematite used; In Vera Crnx, turquolso has been feund: and In other parts teeth with settings of rock crystal, obsidian and a red cement have been found. Wo have never heard ot this custom In Colombia or Peru, but In Esmor aldas. In Atacames. skulls bare been round with tiny disks ot gold set Into tho teeth In the samo manner as In Mexico and Central America, with the exception of tho material." In the Juno number ot the Bulletin of tho Pan American Union, Wash ington, D. C, uppeors a review ot Pro fessor Savllle's latest publication, "Pre-Columbian Decoration of the Teeth In Ecuador." In which tho re viewer, states that tho finding or teeth Inlaid with gold, turquoise, and other substances. In the skulls and Housewives Beware of Unclean Milk WASHINGTON', July 3. Dnring the hot weather (tnilk Is particularly susceptible to contamination nnl for Hut icason the' U. S. Departmcrt of Agriculture is inning n timely warn ing to heusewives: uewnro ol un clean Milk! When milk is delivered it should bo put into tho refrigerator nt once. A very brief exposure to summer beat makes it unfit for use. If it m impossible to have the bottles put immediately into the refrigerator, provide on the porch n box contain ing a lump of ice. Tn planning a house, arrange to have the refriger ator set in the wall with an opening on the ontside. It is always possi ble to provide locks for these boxes or refrigerator doors, and supply tne milkman with a key. The interior of the food compartment should be wip ed every day with n clean cloth, nnd thoroughly scalded as often ns once a week. Under no circumstances should tho drainpipe of an ico box bo connected with a sewer. Care In Opening a llottle of Milk Before removing tho cap from n bottle of milk, the cap nnd the neck cf tho bottle should be washed and carefully wiped with n clean cloth. The cap should not he pushed down into the milk. It may he easily re moved with n sharp pointed instru ment without injuring the contents. Tile bottlo when once ocn should bu kept covered nnd the milk should be kept in the original bottle until it is used up. The original cap should not be replaced, but instead an in verted glass may be put over tho top of tho bottle. The bottlo when not in use, should, of course, always bo be left in tho refrigerator, nnd any milk that has been poured from it in to nnother vessel should not bo pour ed buck. Onions nnd other foods What Is the Matter With Business? Wo havo before us an address de livered beforo tho Commercial club and tho Pittsburg Industrial devel opment commission at Pittsburg by Samuel Untormyor ot New York on "Hcasons and Remedies for Our Uuslncss Troubles." It pleases us because It agrees so fully with statements heretofore ap pearing In tho Surf, tho truth ot which Is confirmed to our mind by this high authority. Mr. Untermyer says: "At tho end ot a long series or years or bountiful crops and with a rocord breaking harvest for tho present year assured, when optimism should hu rumpant, wo uro confront ed everywhere by business contrac tion and depression. Tho Now York banks uro overflowing, call money on stock exchaugo collateral In a drug on tho market, and yet It Is MEDFORTJ MATE TRIBUNE, among tho skolutnl remains of nborlg Inees who lived In various parts of tho American continents prior to tho Spanish discoveries has been a mat ter of peculiar Interest. "Whether this Insertion of foreign substances In the enamel of the teeth was always for merely decorative purposes or whether at times It may havo been to servo n useful end has been a mooted question. Tho general consensus of bplnton among anthropologists Isthnt ornamentation was tho sole object." Last summer Prdf. Savlllo returned from another archaeological trip to South America with numerous val uable specimens', among them being one of unusual Interest, described In tho professor ns follews: "In tho spring of 1913, Cholo. ono or tho natives of Atacames, a town In the province of Esmeraldas, about IS miles southwest of the city of Es meraldas, found a skeleton In a bur ial tube on the right bank of tho Ulo Atacames, Just above tho town. The skull was found with the teeth In laid with gold, but tho flndor con tended himself with breaking off the superior maxillary, throwing tho rest of the skull away. When I visited tho town In uno or tho present year for tho purposo ot making some ex cavations to supplement my rormer work, I obtained tho rrogment. Tho two upper mlddlo teeth are decorated by tho Insertion or thin gold disks In cavities drilled or bored In tho enamel of tho face or the teeth. An unusual dental reat, In addition to the decora tion. Is round In the right middle tooth. This Is not a right middle In clsor, but a rlgfct lateral Incisor which does not belong to the Jaw but was Implamted to replace tho middle Incisor. 'This Is such an extraordi nary featitro that we must weigh very carefully tho evidence as to Its hav ing been round In tho Jaw. Indeed there Is no reason to doubt that the replacement Is a genuine triumph ot tho ancient dentists or Atacames. Another skull showed teeth that had been "face-crowned" with gold, the enamel having been skillfully re moved down to the dentine and the teeth being In a perfect state of pre servation. So much for tho Indian dentists ot a thousand years ago. having n stjong odor, especially dur ing the hot weather, very easily im part their distinctive smell to milk thnt is left uncovered. This is nn additional reason for always keep ing milk in a covered receptacle. Keep Milk ItotUes Out of Sick Iloora Milk bottles should never be' taken into n sick room for as they are us ually returned to tho milkman they may thus carry infectious diseases nto other homes. Every milk uotii left nt n house where there is nn in tedious sickness should be boiled before returning. The best thing to do in such circumstances is to pro vide one's own milk bottles or cov ered dishes into which the milkman mny pour the milk from his bottles. The duty of each individual to bis neighbor in this connection is most important. Tho board of health may be called to disinfect milk bottles properly nfter they have been in n house where there is sickness. In any case, bottles should be giv en reasonable core before they nre returned to their owner. Tho prac tice of pouring vinegar or kerosenu or other liquids' into 'them lemioror ilv when not in use should be all means be discouraged. The contain ers should he washed in cold water first nnd finally in warm water eb- fore they nre returned to the fanner supplying tho milk. These little details of cleanliness ure matters which can not be regulat ed by Federal or Stute Governments Rules nnd regulations that require milk to be delivered to the home may be rendered vulueless by careful in dividuals in the home. The best ef forts of tho milkman or nrmer to de liver first class milk will amount to nothing unless individual housewives will co-opernte for the good of the community. Impossible to secure loans on Im proved unencumbered real ostato or Investment tunds ror nev enterpris cs on any terms. Capital is every where hoarding Its resources tor somo emergency and tho small In vestor seems to havo disappeared. Why? ,There are doultbess contrib utlng world causes, but they uro so remote as to ho almost nogllglblo. "Nor Is tho tarirr bill to any ap preciable extent responsible tor our plight. A downward revision was de manded by the peoplo and recogniz ed as necessury by all parties. Tho chango has been from an avorago of about 43 per cent to an avorugo of about 20 per cent ana has been on tho wnolo wisely distributed. It is tho first tariff bill enacted In our history that was unselfish and unin fluenced by tho demuuds of special Interests, which have heretofore dic tated this clans of legislation, There TODFORP., OREflOy, FRIDAY, iTUTiY n. 3 PH. Is no basis for charging our presold conditions to tho tnrltr, "First and foremost, It Is Insist ed In certain influential quarters that tho policies of the ndmlnlstra tlou are responsible. 1 am an ar dent admirer ot our chief magistrate but not blind worshiper or follow er of his or any other man's poli cies.

Mr. Untermyer then discusses nt length the Mexican situation, con. cIuiIIuk: "Wo are about to witness the triumph of a new diplomacy on this continent that will render war here after well nigh Impossible hud will advance the cause of humanity by centuries. No greater service was over performed. Our nation will head tho roll ot honor lu the cause of universal peace. "Apart from tho tariff bill, and yet n part of It, there has been un acted tho Incomo tax law. Surely none will deny the wisdom ot that leclslatlou or contend that It bus tended to Impair confidence or un settle business. "Tho passage of tho currency law Is the other momentous accomplish ment of the administration within Its brier lUe. Nothing more distinc tively constructive and reassuring to business and nothing more uecessar) to Its safely, stability nnd Independ ence has ever been accomplished. Its detractors have been torcod to rec- ogulio Its value ind havo 'been con verted Into unwMIIng champions lu fno face of their, dim .prophoclcH of disaster. The rich hanests of Un privileged few and the sufferings of the many from financial pnulcs are things or tho past, thanks to the courago and wisdom or this legis lation." Mr. Untermyer In his address re views tho unfinished trust legisla tion with this conclusien: "If, then, It be true thnt tho pend ing legislation Involves no disturb anco ot legitimate business, we re turn to tho Inquiry as to tho reason for tho existing tinsettloment and de pression. "Therohas never been any doubt In my mind' as to tho true reason. "It Is due to the lawlessness and corruption of the mdnagement of our great corporations and to (ho des truction ot tho conflndeiico ot otir home nnd foreign Investors follow ing tho exposure of the- .many in stances that havo characterized the conduct of our corporate affairs In tho past. Until that kind of busi ness was disturbed nnd destroyed by exposure and by tho legislation that Is needed to puplshjlt ns It deserves, we would not havo. and havo no right to expect thoi tijuirn ot public con ridenco. A. "For years past our leaders in the financial world havo been educating the public to tho belief that ovory attempt to uncover corporate rottou ncsa or enforce accountability tor the sacred trusts reposed lu tho offi cere and directors or these corpora tlons was a 'strlko or an attempt at blackmail. "Why should tho tmall Investor entrust his hard earned savings to tho men who havo morcllessly ex ploited and betrayed him while mor alizing in public upon the importance ot character as tho essential to sue 'cessj? to tho chorus of n worshiping press ted by tholr'chosoti press bu reau?" In other words, business Is "rot ten" because business Is rotten. Tho present depression Is not due to a panic, us wero tho "hard times" following 187.1 and 193. Every ef fort of unscrupulously controlled capital has been exhausted In uu of fort to bring about a paulc. Just us another class of thieves set tires to enable them to commit robberies, As President Wilson bus said about the establishment or freo lu Stltutlons in Mexico, "Liberty does not como down from above" Neither does prosperity. If the people wall before the Investment ot their money In nearby employ ment, tor tho return or tho Hpocula tlve prosperity or the past, they will wait In vain.
