Greece, where, according to Portland

There la considerable solicitude for

;To the Editor:
A week or two ago I sent you a
starry beam that I as my own most
merciless critic felt was good. It
had originality, Imagination, humor,
subtle Irony, barbleas cynicism and
curtlesa brevity and placed upon a
pedeatal by eternal truth.
It was not printed.
I hesitate to ascribe this abysmal
remlsston wholly to editorial Incom
petenceyou probably did -not wWi
to establish a precedent ao far tran
scending the kollum'a usual tone.
But be that as It may, to Ignore and
thus tacitly accept the edict Implied
by your fearsome fiasco would mean
Injustloo to you and the public as
well as to me. Hence the necessity
of retributive action.- (Exchange)

The Motor Truck Menace,
A UTOMOpILrE aacidcntH in Oregon, in which trucks have
taken such a leading 'part, iiave become- no common that
the stute automobile association hrts asked Charles I I'ray, head
of the state police, to make an official investigation.
Such an investigation is needed. No one denies that freight
and passenger trucks ave a perfect right on our highways.
Motor transportation has come to stay, and is steadily becoming
a more and more important factor in state and interstate com
merce. ' " : ' '
'Ifut also no one will deny .at least no experienced motorist
-r-that the impression has apparently been growing among truck
drivers, THAT THE HIGHWAYS WERE BUILT FOR THEM
AND NO ONE ELSE. ,
'TPIIESE huge trucks, many of them with trailers, have been
dashing at high speed over. our highways, taking more thai:
their share of the road and cutting curves, until the average
motorist has come to regard thein as the most serious single
menace to safe travel.
These trucks arc large and very heavy. At even slow speed
their mass and momentum are tremendous. Too many truck
drivers have taken advantngo of this fact, and realizing that if
they hit another car, it will be "just too bad" for the OTHER
car, they have sailed along regardless, forcing other traffic to
conform to whatever their course might be.
TrillS IS ALL WRONG. We don't 'mean to imply that high
Officials in the truck business arc in any way responsible
for this condition. They undoubtedly realize that it is decidedly
to their selfish interest, that truck drivers scrupulously observe
traffic rules, and they have no doubt done everything in their
power to bring this about. ;
Hut the fact remains, conditions imjuced by the trucks, have
recently been going from bad to, worse. During the past few
months this office has literally been flooded with complaints
from local and visiting motorists. And both here and Elsewhere,
serious auto crashes, due to trucks, have been increasing alarm
ingly. " i ' . ,
- i .( .
A LL that is needed, as we see it, is a strict enforcement of
the traffic rules, and a' more careful selection and more
effective control by the motor tru'ek organizations over their in
dividual truck-drivers. '
The impression that because a truck is so large and power
ful, it has rights' and privileges, not accorded to other traffic,
must, be knocked out of the hetfds ipf the truck drivers.
When th"t is done the motor (ruck business will enjoy the
public ;good will to which it is entitled, and our highways will
be mado safer, for all types of motor travel.
Help Fisitirig, Tourists
WE HEARTILY agree' With Will Steelo's communication in
today's paper urging a better sign on East Main street
to show tourists the turn to Crater. Lake.
Many years ago the Mail Tribune urged 'Such action. The
small and inadequate. sign then marking the turn was replace'.!
by a larger and more effective one, but the suggestion that a
banner sigli'folr tho togrist season be stretched across the street
was not carried out.
That such a sign, is needed or THAT A. FAR MORE
STRIKING SIGN THAN THE PRESENT ONE IS NEEDED
no one living east of tho Crater Lake highway will deny.
, Not a day during ho tourist season pbshcs that from ten to
twenty tourists don't wander about Siskiyou' Heights asking
directions to Crater Lake.
True tho turn-off sign is there, but it is so placed that a
largo proportion of visiting motorists fail to see it.
. Medford Is .the gateway to Crater Lake. Tourist travel to
the lako this year is breaking all records.
It seems to us the least Medford can do, would, he to so
mark tha Crater Lake Highway, that, visiting tourists could not
fail to soo it. -

ltKHUHCITATION IN MOROCCO.
. With a group of more or less Irre
sponsible members of an army, nar
rates my friend Jack DeWltt of the
' Council Bluffs Non
pareil, I was waiting
for an opportunity
to steal a goat from
a goatherd lh Mo
rocco. -
It was springtime
among the goats
and they were rap
Idly mult 1 p 1 y 1 n g
while we lounged
around. : '
As each kid was
born the goatherd
held his fist over the kid's mout
with his little finger to hold the
mouth open at the back, then press
ed his lips against the upper part of
his fist and blew a blast Into the
kid's lungs.
I asked .Mm why. He was a Berber
horder. Berbers of his tribe arc fa
mous for animal husbandry and not
for fighting. He said It was to start
them breathing. He knew nothing
of the science of it. but his theories,
however crude, were your Professor
Henderson's. He Insisted that the
same rite Is used for newborn babies
In bis tribe.
Once I met a black tribe who prac
tice the same thing wlt,i their new
born'lnfants. Now comes Henderson's Idea.
How goes the battle with the -mollycoddles?
List me as a test patient
fcr any exposure experiment short of
frostbite. Cordially, (J. DeW.)
Tho expired air contains approxi
mately 44 per cent of carbon dioxld
(carbonic acid gas),1whlle fresh air
contains only four hundredths of I,
per cent. Prof. Henderson advocates
the routine' administration to new
born Infants of inhalations of a mix-,
ture of carbon dioxide 7 parts or per
cent with oxygen 93 parts or per cent
to Insure vigorous breathing. This
Is to be administered in the simplest
and safest fapftlon, from an lnhalator
that Is, an Inflatable rubber bag, the
doctor gently squeezing the bag to
inflate the lungs, then gently press
ing on the baby's chest to Inflate the
bag or donate the lungs as you pre
fer. Note particularly that no ma
chine, pump or motor Is used as
such artificial respiration apparatus
la too dangerous for adults, and un
justifiable where an Infant's lungs
aro concerned.
Our friend's description of the Ber
ber method of instituting breathing
In the newborn Is very Interesting
I often tVtlnk as I read the records
of explorers how unfortunate It "Ss
that these people seldom give us any
information about the human cus

UsslBt me In getting proper treatment
Appoint a Local Relief Committee
WE UELIEVE tho best way to handle the unemployment
problem in Medford this winter would bo to appoint a
special committee of 40 or 50 representative citizens, to assist
the Red Cross and other relief agencies.
With such a committee the entire I'omniunity could be dis
tricted, ami a member of the committee placed in charge of
each district. The big problem will be to take earc of our own
people, and run 110 risk of missing any deserving ease.
With such a plan, cacti district would be so small that, it
could easily be canvassed and checked by one person. Thai
person would also be in a position to deliver supplies, promptly,
and give individual attention to each case.
THIS would would be a better system, in our opinion, than n
central relief station, or any form of the soup kitchen pro
gram. Of course if conditions should prove to be more serious
Ihan now anticipated, purtieiiliirly in the direction of transient
relief, a common shelter to keep unfortunates warm and dry
might he advisahld.
Hut the main thing, we repeat, is for Medford to take earc
(if its OWN PEOPLE, and the formation of such a committee
would, we believe, be by far the best way .to do it.

(By Alice Judson Pi-ntel
Jealousy, that moat uncomfort
able of all human emotions. Is
olosely related to feelings ot hate
and Inferiority. i
A child la apt to be Jealous when
he feels that another holds the
preferred place In the affections 01
someone who Is moat Important to
him.
Buch Jealousy, long continued, re
sults In feelings of antagonism to
ward the person who stands be
tween him' and the object ot his
love.
He hates his rival. Hating him
and continuing nevertheless to be
acutely aware that thla person, for
some reason or other. Is sble to get
the thing he wants most, he feels
Inferior,
His Intelligence may tell him that
actually he Is In no way Inferior,
but there la the .preference not
withstanding, and he frela In re
sponse a mixture of profound hu
lnllttallon and failure.
How can you prevent your child
from developing the pattern ol
Jealouayr Be sure that he never
has reason to doubt your love.
Guard against the exhibition ot
preterances within the family. This
applies not only to brothers and
sinters but to the other parent as
well.
Avoid all comparisons. Don't, for
Instance, make a point ot father's
great achievements with the Idea
ot stimulating hla son to walk in
his footsteps.
Nine times out of ten thla re
sults only In discouragement and
resentment on the part of the
boy to whom the achievements 01
the father look Incredibly wonderful
and far away.
Be sure alwaya to give your child
the assurance that what he can
do la worth doing, and that hla
efforts are appreciated.

don't stay straight long after such
operations . . . (M. V.)

by all means to have the operation.
If the deviating eye has gone blind
surYi an operation Is not of much
use, but If the deviating eye still
