EAST RADICAL
STATES PROFESSOR
UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Kn
genn, July 3. 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

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

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

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

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.

"Nor Is tho tarirr bill to any ap

"First and foremost, It Is Insist
ed In certain influential quarters
that tho policies of the ndmlnlstra

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.
The ruthless robbers, sometimes
referred to as "high (Inunclors,"
havo been driven from their roosts,
Their era of plunder and prosperity
Is past.
Tho soonor the peoplo of Santa
Cruz, of Culirornla, of tho, United
States, realize this, and uct accord-
Inly, tho sooner will confldenco bo

Prosperity or tho' real kind, "good
