There s a Reason j
IT IS to laugh! The Democrats killed the sales tax a week ago
because it "hit the little fellow." j
On Wednesday they passed a stamp tax which presumably ;
doesn't. At least we heard no champion of the common people '
get up and oppose it on such grounds.

an imperative purchase either, for food, clothing and medicines
had been eliminated from the measure before the vote was taken.
In other words the sales tax would only have hit the little
fellow who enjoyed a cash surplus above mere subsistence. The
little man only able to decently clothe and properly nourish
himself and family, would have escaped the tax entirely.
But the champions of the little fellow won. The sales tax
was killed. Whereupon less than a week later the stamp tax
was passed.
We can imagine no tax. that will hit the little fellow harder.
Not every one buys. much these days, outside of food, clothing

is always a chance EVEN OF A NEWSPAPER EDITOR being

But here is OUR explanation:
There was no well-organized and highly-paid lobby fighting
against it. There WAS such a lobby fighting against the sales
tax and it was financed by an extraordinary combination
department stores, chain stores, and the American Federation
of Labor. The. National Grange also joined the opposition but
according to our information, contributed no money toward it.
Here is a description of that lobby by one of the best in
formed newspaper men in Washington:
"It was one of the moat powerful Intangible battering rama

Jenkins' Comment
(Continued from Page One )
ECONOMICS used to be called the
" "dismal science." T.ila waa be
csuse the early economists taught
thst when wagea reached a point
above the level necessary for bare
existence the coat of the products
of labor and management waa forced
up to a point higher than people
could afford to pay and so the whole
structtire of business came crashing
down.
That waa certainly a dismal pros
pect an outlook of utter hopeless
ness.
ODERN economists are beginning
" to hold the brighter and more
hopeful theory that the way to make
bustneaa good and provide employ
ment for everybody la to keep wigee
high enough that people will be able
not only to keep body and soul to
gether but to BUY AND PAY FOR
the products of labor and manage
ment In large volume.
We don't know exactly how to do
thst yet, but we are beginning to
hope Uiat we may find V way.

WASHINGTON. March 31.
Here, the heart of the nation is
beating as well as can be ex
pected. It is raining, a long
slow all-day rain that reminds
you of a business depression.
Taxicab drivers welcome the
rain, which helps business.
Their charge has been cut down
to twenty cents a. ride, "almost
anywhere in Washington," says
a colored driver, adding that
unemployment has doubled the
number of taxi drivers because
"anybody can drive a taxi."
Then he laughs heartily. A
white man would tell you the
same thing, with a sour look
reminding you of Leu in and
Karl Marx rolled into one.
, President Hoover, working late as
usual, when the writer called at the
Whlto House this afternoon, was
about to prepare a statement that
will be pleasing to the automobile
Industry.
The President believes that buy
ing a new automobile Is an excellent '
way to help employment In one of
the greatest Industries. 'and. at the
same time, contribute to general
cheerfulness. Now that the new
models are ready and on view, select
your 1032 car.
To possess, drive and exhibit a new
automobile, guttering In the glory of
chromium plating, Is to prove that
you are net hoarding your money,
and that you are contributing prac
tically to the problem of employ
ment and the happiness of your fam
ily." Tha house hopes to get a tax bill
ready for tomorrow. It wilt Include
a tax on stock sales of one-quarter of
one per cent. Uncle Sam is In Wall
Street with a vengeance, taking from
the market twice what the brokers
get.
If all goes well, representatives ex
pect to raise one billion dollars with
this bill.
There are some "lis" and several
"buts" In the program.
Mr. Alvln Macauley, head of the
Packard company, Is here to say that
the proposed tax on automobiles will
wreck the Industry.
Mr. Common Sense Is here to tell
the "sock the rich" brigade that the
tax that would take away three
quarters of really big Incomes will
not yield the desired golden milk.
The big Incomes will not material
ize. The best newa in town has to do
with ocean flying. Private enterprise
and capital proposes to build a line
of super-dlrlglbles, bigger than the
Akron, to carry passengers and malls
across the Atlantic and Pacific,
Nothing is asked of the government
but a chance to carry the malls as
other craft enjoy. That the bill In
troduced by Congressman Crosser of
Ohio will pau, there Is no doubt,

Speed Is everything In modern
commerce. Gernany already haa a

The American dirigibles will cross
the Atlantic In two and one-half
days, msklng the round trip once a

The establishment of this line,
across both oceans, will be Invalu
able in sending samples, salesmen
and mall. The pity Is that It will
take three years to get the first giant
ship ready. Germany la already build
ing a ship bigger then the Akron,
but America's monopoly of helium

safe dirigible travel. If we care to

It is a pleasure to state positively

YELLOW FOODS
From animal experimentation we
infer that an adequate quantity of
vitamin A may help to keep us im
mune to Infections
in general and re
spiratory infections
In particular. We
may be wrong
about this. It will
take many years'
patient observation ;
of persons subsist- i
ihg on various diets
to determine
whether the Infer
ence is applicable
to man.
Meanwhile, no harm in seeing to It
that everybody, particularly the chll-
dren. gets enough vitamin A. I
Yellow foods seem to be the best
sources of this vitamin. It was first
found In butterfat. then in egg yolk
and then In cod liver oil. Of course
whole milk and cream contain it, but
butter Is the richest of the three. Ripe
banana, orange, orange Juice, contain
it Sweet potatoes and carrots con
tain vitamin A, while white potatoes
and red white tubers or roots con
tain little or none. Yellow corn or
yellow corn meal contains It; white
corn meal does not. Vitamin A Is
abundant In liver, kidney, sweetbread,
but only sparingly found in lean
meats or In the body fats of animals.
It Is not found In appreciable quan
tity in olive oil, cottonseed oil. cocoa-
I nut oil, peanut oil or other vegetable
oil. The green relishes splnacn,
watercress,' lettuce, beet tops, turnip
tops, celery leaves, rsdlsh tops and
raw cabbage are all excellent soroes
of vitamin A. So are the green onion
tops.
This vitamin is destroyed by oxida
tion. Therefore, you cannot get
enough of it In a diet made up largely
of preserved, dried, canned or salted
foods. Storage permits slow oxidiza
tion. Prolonged heating In a vessel
which gives access to the air destroys
the vitamin A in the food, but In or
dinary cooking the vitamin A is not
entirely destroyed, and In canning by
vacuum process it is not destroyed.
Formerly vitamin A was confused
with vitamin D. The nutrition ex
perts concluded that two separate
substances were concerned, and they
therefore postulated two where only
one had previously purported to exist.
It is all very confusing, this vitamin
business. Some of. the experts have
insisted that there are six or seven
vitamins demanding recognition,
Senator Hiram Johnson was work
ing in committee with Senator Wag
ner on the lat ter's unemployment
bill, and Miss Perkins. New York la
bor commissioner, appointed by Gov
ernor Smith, retained by Governor
Roosevelt, was proving that women
have clear minds, and can make
facts plain. Senator Cope land of
New York and other wise ones were
there. Miss Katherlne Dayton, with
one possible exception the most bril
liant young woman writer in the
country, was taking notes on human
nature.
At the bottom of a newspaper
page, ten lines tell you that Forrest
Malllck, one of the courageous air
mall pilots, was found dead today
strapped to his plane.
Seated In an open cockpit, he
might have saved himself by para
chute but preferred to stick to his
ship and the mail entrusted to his
ahlp, and the mall entrusted to him.
A few lines and the world hears no
more of him.
But If war should come, he and
other pilots as brave, would be this
country's chief reliance.
Another, different, story of death
comes from Niagara. Hundreds of
wild swans, lighting on the river
above the falls, to rest, were trapped
In the swift current, which would
not let them rise, many killed.
How many tragedies that cataract
has seen; Indians In their canoes,
struggling against the current; white
men and women, seeking death, and
often changing their minds, shriek
ing for help, too late. And now the
giant power that roared so long. In
solitude, Is harnessed and meekly
earning dividends for the wise.
Third and last death story Is that
of a fierce water buffalo that had
long lorded It over all the Inhabi
tants of a swamp on northern Luzon
Island. In the Philippine Islands
Little did the buffalo dream that
death was approaching In the form
of a slender, relentless governor gen
eral named Theodore Roosevelt. Jr.
There stood the buffalo, pawing
savagely. Governor Roosevfit let one
piercing eye run along the rifle bar
rel, over the sight, straight between
the buffalo's eyes. One shot, and
the buffalo bit the dust, or whatever ,
the floor of the swamp may have
open.

FOR VITAMIN A.
whereas It Is all we ordinary doctors
can do to conceive three or four.
Besides keeping one more or letts
Immune against respiratory infec
tions, vitamin A apparently serves to
prevent opthalmla, dry sore eyes and
night-blindness, and some nutrition
experts suspect it may help to- pre
vent stone in the kidney or bladder.
There Is a great deal more hokum
than truth propagated concerning the
vitamins, and one must be on guard
against the gross misinformation so
cheerfully provided for the public.
For example, the claim made by some
about the vitamin value of milk Is
absurd In any case and false If the
milk is pasteurized. The very purest
fresh milk to be had anywhere Is on'y
a mediocre or an inadequate source
of any of the known vitamins, even
for an Infant.

Know Our Birds!
To the Editor:
I have read with amusement the
communications, one expressing sur
prise at seeing poldflnches, and the
other asserting that the birds seen
were not Goldfinches but Bobolinks.
It is difficult to understand how
bird lover and nature student
would fall to distinguish between
Goldfinch and Bobolink. The Gold
finch Is common here, but the Bobo
link is not native In Oregon. For
confirmation, refer "Color Key to
North American Birds." by Chapman
ic Reed. Doubled ay -Page & Co., or
any other authentic work. If the
lady can confirm her statement that
birds are Bobolink, she should
so In a scientific manner and
take some specimens, for it would
be a valuable contribution to onn-
thology.

communication is not to enter an
argument, but to encourage every-

Love And Gray Hairs
Are As Far Apart
As The Poles
ONLY THE FAMILY
IGNORES GRAY HAIR
"I worship, adore and idolize my
mother, no matter how old, gray ot
wrinkled, and Dad is the same way
about the mother of his boys, but
love real, true love such as one
feels for the opposite sex which
thrills, enraptures and inspires a
fiassionate desire to possess andJ
ove you shrinks unconsciously"
from gray hairs, crows-feet, deaf
ness and other signs of ojd age."
declares C. J. Mains, the nationally-known
expert on gray hairs,
"Stop and think a minute and you'll
agree with me. Love is a mltused word
xpreulve ot the feeling of delight, rap
ture, jeslouiy or passion toward" the op
posite sex not kin to you. A man retains
his mcther on her lofty pedestal. She U
enshrined there. No msn divorces hii
mother, but he leaves a girl he loved or
might love If she fails, has halitosis, bad
habits or is untidy and old for him. No
mother needs to keep her figure, youth or
winning ways to please her children, but
wlfie or girl friend, who a man never wor
ships but only loves, must avoid gray hair,
fat and wrinkles or love flies out tho win
dow. "Women happy with family and d-v
mestic life ran afford gray hair be
cause It brings respect, adds dignity
bat her days for love, a new job or
social y mingling with the younger st
are oer the same as with a man who is
nappy at home, well fixed and head of bis

"Boims give jobs now and then to gray
hairs out of compassion, but they rightly
feel thy are hiring a liability Instead of

in giving 'Pep' first chance. Men and
women complacently living In the part en
their past performances, serenely confident
they are intrenched in their wife or hus
band's love, their job or social strata,
would be amaicd to find how easilr a
younger person could supplant them. May
