A Training School for Packers F AST week a news article on the first page of the Oreifonian maintained that the importation of California fruit packers in this district had created sneh a serious situation that mass meetings of protest were being held, dynamiting and burning of packing houses had been threatened, the story creating the im pression throughout the state, that a call for the national guard to maintain order and prevent bloodshed was imminent. The Mail Tribune refused to print such a story, because it knew it was absolutely untrue. No mass meetings had been held, local packers flatly denied threats of dynamiting and burning had been received, there was a widespread resentment against the importation of California packing crews, but inves tigation, showed the reports . of such importation had been greatly exaggerated.--- " ' '"" . . ------ yilK MAIL TRIBUNE facvore'd a survey of the situation 'by V disinterested parties, a determination of the facts BEFORE determining theicourse of action jind tllirilan was adopted; the Chamber of Commerce appointing a committee for this purpose, which yesterday handed down its findings. These findings confirmed statements of the Red Cross and federal labor bureau, that the proportion of outside labor em ployed was less this year than heretofore, that the widespread complaints were caused by the fact that, due to the smaller crop, the total amount of labor employed -was materially less than in former years, rather than by any discrimination against local labor. . ' . ; : 1 ; This report should go far toward clearing the atmosphere and dispelling the impression that there is any disposition on the part of local fruit packers to! hire more outside help than CIRCUMSTANCES RENDER . NECESSARY. ' . s v ; j i. A S FAR as this paper is concerned, however, and as long as " business conditions continue, we would like to see the fruit r t ... packing handled entirely by local labor. This couldn't be done this year because fruit packing is a trade by itself, and requires experienced and 'skilled labor; (( sufficient amount' not heing available in thj city of Medford. ; Toward tliin end we would like to see a training school for fruit packers established in this city where men and women could be trained so the demand for grained workers during the harvest could be met without calling in crews from California or elsewhere. We have an idea the local packers would be will ing to finance such a school. If not, then we believe it would be good 'business to handle the matter at public expense. With so many unemployed, and so many anxious for any sort of remunerative work, it should be possible to so arrange mat ters, that all this payroll could be distributed among our own people, and none of it pr, practically none handed out to non residents, .1 '; A packing 'school, public or private we believe, would ac complish this. The British Crisis WHEN Premir,MaoDonald, in top-hat and morning coat, nmharknil from lhiinrminA in Dnwninir. street, this morning, someone in the milling crowd greeted him with the epi thet of "Judas I" . The top-hat and morning icoat had something to' do with it, no doubt,; for it is the regalia of vested authority in dear old England. But, as is usual in such circumstnees, the epithet was not deserved, '', TRITE, MacDonald has turned against the radical members of liiu mi'n mirtv in fuvni'lm n vprliutinii' of (hit rlnle. hut. in this action he has notS betrayed them. lie is merely doing every thing he can to save his party and his country from revolution and disaster. With an unbalanced budget, with the pound sterling drop ping, with the national debt soaring, he has taken the position that the time for radicalism and partisanship has passed; and the time for statesmanship and patriotism has begun,; ..' In taking such a stand he is not only doiljg what is best for bis country but what is liest for the labor party. PNQIiAND faces the same crisis it faced during the world war. Instead of the threat coming from Germany, it' comes from world economic conditions.

A telephone call had Informed Hazel ton where the pigeons might be found, and Instructed him to fasten the ransom money to their legs and release them.

A ton of hottey valued at MM, whs stolen" from large bee In winter time we often see experience a condition known "chapped hands" and this consists . -. - In a cracking of the skin, says Dr. J. P. Montague, in his excellent little book "Troubles We Don't Talk About" (Lip plncott Co.). You are all aware of the soreneas, s m a rtlng and biting which a c c o m panles this c o n d It Ion. Then, too, we are all fa miliar with a con dition known as , a . "cracked lip. This Is also an extremely trouble some condition, difficult to heal and In general a dfeturbtng factor out of proportion to its size. A very similar condition of the rectal orifice la called fissure. It Is really unimportant from the standpoint of doing great harm or endangering life, but In producing agony it ranks with the worst ailments. Fissure causes pain of a knife-like character, much more severe than the pain of mere piles, In a- talk about hemorrhoids the other day I said I believe the con stipation and the physic habit usu ally precedes the hemorrhoids. In the case of fissure I admit the con stipation follows the fissure. The discomfort produced by any bowel movement Is so extreme that the victim purposely avoids the act as long as It Is humsnly possible. Then the anxiety and demoralization the condition ca'.ises contribute further to upset digestion, and so not a few cases of "stomach trouble" are to be cured only by curing an old fis sure. . . . If it will not seem .cruel I will give not my own opinion, but that of Dr. Montague, that the chief cause of fissure is constipation. Yes, yes, we Just explained that fissure causes constipation. we aoctors must have our little Jokes I hope you won't mind as long as our Jokes are clean. When I mentioned above that constipation is an inevitable effect of fissure, I remembered the story about the bartender who cured all bad coughs with a huge . dose of mineral water. Fissure causes constipation in much the same way. Presumably there is primarily a small tear produced by some hard- mass, or by the careless use 01 a syringe. Reflex Irritability of the oiaaaer often leads to a mistaken diagnosis of "cystitis" or, among very igno-' rant folk, "cold In the bladder." lit some Instances fissure nas oeen mistaken for "sciatica" or Just "back ache." ' ' Here let me warn readers not to.l ask mv opinion about a given case No doctor s opinion Is worth a nooi unloss he has made a careful examination.. Suppositories and external salvei are worthless.- Sometimes olntmeni applied through a pile pipe by th physician or as Instructed by th physician, may give some reliel. One of the best measures of relief! Is the hot sltz bath, as hot as the! natlent can comfortably bear, weir ataadX Flight o' Time (Mod ford and Jarknon Con tit j History From the Ftle of Tlii Mall Tribune of 10 and 10 Tnam AaTo.) . over the hips, for' halt an hour, and the effect may be enhanced by the suitable cases application of hot water bag or heating pad following the bath. Surgical treatment Is the sensible thing, when fissure causes much suffering. In most cases the sur gical cure Is given with local anes thesia, and the discomfort for a day or two after the little operation is nothing compared with the suffered from the fissure. palo QIESTIONS AND ANSWERS, Doctors Are Mulish.
