Now they ore afflicted with orncryncHH, and nre prt.no to ex change tho casual greeting of the world even on tho "tlmp-catah-llnhed."

Thin Is tho Kick tradition, nnd started before footballs were Invented. ., Mall Tribune art ara read by 10,000 people avery day. it THE SAME rVUIUXG the recent cum puimi Governor Meier ndvoented the elimination of the public nervico commission. At that time tho Mail-Tribune maintained that this was merely an effort to capitalize tho public J'celiiiK ajjiiiiiKt the wlafc commission, particularly in Multnomah, molluscs to catch flies that if such action were curried out it would be n victory for the public utilities rather than the people for il would render any effective public control of the utilities impossible. T'HAT this contention was correct must now be apparent to everyone. For Governor Meier and his supporters, instead of abandoning the principle of such control, ur(;e its retention, favoring two such commissions instead of one, Die first a one man commission, t lie second a commission composed of three members. In other words, instead of yaarryinj; out the pledge to abolish the public service commission, the new state administration is rclaininjr one commission of three members and creating a sec ond, .lust how as a permanent policy two commissions will serve the interests of the people of this state better than one it is difficult to see. . , . rriiING the campaign this paper advocated retaining the public service commission, and placing men upon it, quali fied to protect I he interests of the people on one hand, and the lcgitimale rights of the public utilities on the oilier in short, commission that would insist upon, and be able to secure, a square deal. The only answer we heard to this proposal was "down with the public service commission!" And that was the way n majority of the people voted. Hut now instead of having no public service commission or only one, they nre going to have TWO! IT WAS ever thus. I'nl sound political principles up against appealing political catchwords, and the latter win perhaps not every time, but nine times out of ten. And we fear pointing out In the voters how they were gypped as we are doing now does lillb'-gooit.' -For aflei-an election is over they arc nol interested in politics one way or the other, and they WONT be interested until the same sort of unadulterated whang-doodle lures them after the demagogues and self seekers in another campaign. WHAT IS THE ANSWER? 'I'lIEKE is one very peculiar thing about this Prohibition busi- ness. Take a stand at the isomer of Main and Central and ask tho people as they pass )y what they think of Prohibition At least eight out of ten will say they think it a fiircc. Listen to the talk nt a local club or lodge; take a trip and listen to the conversation in the Pullman smoking room, or in the day coach j browse around und if you hear any Prohibition talk it will be overwhelmingly AGAINST. A Nl) yet when President Hoover appoints a commission to study the problem, only .two out of eleven favor repeal, and on the modification issue (any change in Prohibition what ever) the commission is almost equally divided, six for and five against. - '. , . .. ', .. It is Hie same in congress and in the state legislature at Sa lem. Go to Washington and talk with senators and congress men privately ; go to Salem and do the samething. Those op posed to prohibition individually, outnumber those strongly in favor of it over two to one. And yet whether it is before a commission, congress, or a state legislature, bring up the Prohibition issue for a vote, and this overwhelming sentiment against it suddenly and mys teriously vanishes. Why is it? What does it mean? IS TINS apparent unpopularity of Prohibition merely talk? Ifave people acquired the habit of talking against Prohibi tion, and then when il pomes to a showdown, voting for il ? .Or is the present situation due to. the fact that the Drys, while in a minority, are united and militant, while the anti Drys, while in the majority, are divided ami quitters? firV'RXi-D" if wc know. Hut we DO know this. The present writer numbers among his friends both ardent Drys and Wets, and he being neither, is frequently cursed out by both. Hut. one fact has been very nnHeeable for many years, the ar dent Wet is willing to talk a lot, hut when it eoines to takftig a public stand, or even writing something for the paper there is a decided "backwardness about coming forward." The ar dent Dry doesn't talk so much, but when something threatens the principle in which he believes, you will always find him out in front, on the firing line. Perhaps that's the answer. What's the use?. If yon have money enough to spend the winter at a resort, you have enough to make winter enjoyable at home.

(you mean tuberculous that Is, affected with tuberculosis; tubercular merely means having tubercles, and one with leprosy, syphilis, actinomy cosis or some other disease might have tubercles, be tubercular, without being tuberculous, having tuberculosis). (Mrs. K. F. T.) Answer. The woman may bear children without greater risk than as tho she had never had tubercu losis. Kven if the mother ham active tuberculosis when the child is born, the child will not be horntl with tuberculosis, but would bo certain to contract It from tho mother If permitted to remain In hor care.

Brisbane's Today (Continued from Page One) Amazed as lip would be 'at the Bight of a train of modern Pullman cars, Ceorge M. Pullman would be more ami-zed to hear that soon bo yoiul 'a doubt Pullmun nnd ull oth or cars will vanish from long (lis-taiK?-iservice to make way for travel in Hie air. For several years iilreudy the Pullman company, pro gressively managed, has been ex perimenting witli "Pullman flying cars," its engineers working out plans for the lightest possible con struction. Two days ago in Los Angeles. Paul Shoup, president of the South ern Pacific railroad system, told a gathering or contractors that the railroads inevitably would be compelled- in view of present condi tions to include in their work the transportation of passengers and freight hy air, by highway with mo tors, and by water. To the credit of the railroad men It must be said that they have done more to en courage air traffic, establishing their numerous air . lines, more than any other agency except the United States postoffice. Wise men that invest in Amerl can values, foolish people that gam ble in those values, will probably be deceived as to real conditions during the next few months. The bad news of ISM will come out now, in the corporation re ports showing what happened, profits down, gloomy change in earnings, and this will frighten those that do not realize condi tions. You read now that the Joliesj Laughlin Steel Co. made $8.64 a share in 19:50 against $29.04 In 1929. In the same column you see that DeVoe & Reynolds, who make paints, earned only $132,299 In 1930 against $1,086,615 the year before. - Dozens of these sad statements will come out nnd the foolish will say: "liverythlng is going to the dogs. I shall sell whnt I have." The fact is that things are coming hack, having "gone to the dogs lust yeur. If you are wise yott will hold what you have. The healthy man has his little illnesses. I'ncle Sam has just had his. The situation is described by Otto 11. Kahn, accurately, thus: "In a few years we shall look back and find it hard to believe thnt the best American properties once sold at today's ridiculous low prices." In this western part of the world they do not make heroes ot rack eteers or criminals. They lock them up. The first page of Bonflls' Den ver Post, which you see every where out here, prints picture of 29 racketeers seized by the Den ver police as they were arranging a state-wide bootlegging organiza tion In Colorado. Above his six column picture of the rackf leers Hifnfils puts the lino "A FIXE LOT OF SCUM," nnd adds, "They haven't even the nerve to look nt the camera." New York In the east and Ixis Angeles in the west might both lenrn something from Colorado's attitude toward those modern pro- Quill Points The best form of lire insurunce a ponce policy. The church that striven to offer astonishing and unexpected things might present the old-fashioned kind of religious sermon some times. - lCveryone should have at least two years of college, if only to show him ho didn't Jtnow every thing. when ho finished high school. If tuns uinl sUriis of wcur make nn niitliiiie, it won't bo loiur before Diltl's imiils cull qualify. You see, wo need poor people to use the institutions provided by philunthropists who get tholr wads by keeping workers poor. The measure of a man is the im portance of the thing he is willing to fight about. Some men can't conceive of the cares .of motherhood, but others liavc tricjt io raise a mustache, . Some noveb obviously are writ ten with the movie rights in mind, and others scarely give you a pain. Another great aid to longevity Is a bunch of relatives who are impatient of delay.

THE FORCE OP GOOD HABIT ,ifi By Alice Judson Pcale ilikln cheering, to consider that If bad habits are hard to break, good ones are equally strong. Train a child always to pick up his toys before bedtime and he will be unwilling to go to bed If they are strewn about. Children, like ail other living creatures, not only tend to repeat those actions which give them pleasure, but find it difficult and unilleasant . to wean' themselves from any aetlon which has become habirdal. The good habits of childhood are! permanent. A child who has 'bterVjwell trained before the age of five, is unlikely to give trouble later on. The hitch in tho matter comes from the fact that parents unwit tingly try to teach children good habits without seeing to it that they are accompanied by pleasur able feelings. For Instance, we make- a child wash his hands before dinner Without giving thought to anything but the fact that we want him to be bleah. Iff This result Is not In itself attrac tive to the child. To become so it must be associated in his mind With fun. with a sense of achieve ment, with praise nnd approval. If he is scolded for dirtying the basin, for leaving the sonp on the floor, or for soiling his towel, the whole business becomes disagree able to him, and clean hands sug gest to him only n highly unpleas ant operation. If, on the other hand, we take pains to ignore his first clumsiness and the fact that he does not do ns good a job as we would like, he gradually learns to take pleasure In the task. Having taken pleasure In It, he Cheerily does it again and again until the act has become ,so fixed that It is automatic. hibltlou products, the organized racketeers. Captain Clark of the Denver po lice lines his 29 gentlemen in a row and says: "Oct out and Htay out of Denver. The Denver police are ready.or you gun totera. You start anything and the police will finish you with machine guns. One funny move from any of you and you will wish you had never heard of Denver." The 29, It Is understood, already wish that they had never heard of Denver. They will seek when re leased some one nf the many places outside or Colorado where gangsters and racketeers, some po lice and some judges are In part nership. By BUD FISHER t Di Yon Remember?
