The Bright Side of the
Depression
'T'HE law of compensation in as constant as the law of gravity.
The present economic conditions have undoubtedly been
the worst in modern history. Yet even the cloud of depression,
hag its silver lining.
It has taught the people the folly of trying to get something
for nothing. It has taught them the dangers of gambling and
unbridled speculation. It has emphasized the value of the
hardier virtues, of self denial, hard work and economy; it has
necessitated a readjustment of the values of life, on a sounder
basis, than has existed for a generation.
A DRASTIC remedy it is true. But one that we had coming
to" us. When the depression, passes, as it is bound to pass,
those of real vision among us, will realize that the depression,
in a certain sense, wag g blessing in disguise. As a people we
will emerge, not only properly chastened, but greatly strength
ened in body and soul.
Particularly in soul. There will be, we predict, a revival of
religion, TRUE religion, a reaffirmation of the "eternal fact,
so completely forgotten in the boom days of 1929, that in the
creed of a successful life there is no substitute for character,
nor for honesty, nor for fair dealing between men. We will
have learned that what we call economic laws can't be entirely
divorced from moral lnws; that in the lust analysis business
obligations, are inextricably entwined with moral obligations.
In short, there will be a new world. And by the acid test
of worth, which is essentially a spiritual test, a better one I
The Golden Lining
.
ZOOMING down to earth from the foregoing, and to brass
tacks right here in the Rogue River valley, we are won
dering if this depression isn't going to benefit us in an un
expected way. Not spiritual, but material.
As everyone knows, Southern Oregon started out as a great
gold-producing country. Before we had our orchards, or our
alfalfa fields, our truck gardens or our lumber mills, Jackson
ville was a roaring, and very prosperous mining camp.
The one commodity that has not only escaped the depres
sion, but increased in value during it, has been gold. The
purchasing power of an ounce of raw gold today, is greater
than it has been in over a generation.
And there is another thing everyone knows, or SHOULD
KNOW. And if they doubt it a walk around the foothills of
Jackson County will convince them.
ifTpiERE IS STILL GOLD IN THESE HERE HILLS." We
ara reliably informed there are 500 residents of Jackson
county, panning gold within a few miles of Medford. And they
are getting gold. Not in large quantities, for their resources are
small. But they are making wages, and in many instances
real wages, and this gold today is being distributed among
the merchants of Medford.
WE are wondering if this increase in the value of gold, and
this stimulation in gold mining, which it, and the wide
spread unemployment caused by the depression has created,
will not result in the development of one of the riohest natural
resouroes we have, which for three-quarters of a century, has
boon neglooted and praotically forgotten!
Porhaps not, but such an outcome, we regard, as highly
probable. Not only a revival of gold mining but all mining,
the development of our mineral resources in every direction..
And if this should come about, certainly no one would deny,
that this depression, so devastating in many directions, was
responsible for it, that for Southern Oregon at least, this dark
cloud of the depression, literally did have not only a silver,
But a GOLDEN lining I
Vote and Buy a Poppy!
THE primary election is not the only important event sched
uled for May 20th. On that day, and the day following
the annual poppy sale for the relief of disabled veterans, is to
be carried on.
There are two organizations behind this very worthy cause,
the auxiliaries of the Legion and the Veterans of Foreign Wars.
They are distinot and separate organizations but they have a
common purpose on these two days: namely to help the indi
vidual veterans who made these poppies; and more important,
help the DISABLED VETERANS1 AND THEIR FAMILIES
RIGHT HERE IN SOUTHERN OREGON.
""PHERE may be honest differences of opinion regarding finan-
cial aid for those who came out of the war, as fit in body
and mind, as when they went In; but there can be no differences
of opinion or should be none, regarding those who left their
good health, and their normal earning power on the battlcfiolils
of France.
Therefore we suggest to the thousands of people, who will
go to the polls next Friday to vote for good government, that
they also contribute their loose dimes and nickels, to this poppy
sale, for that is also a movement for good government.
Voting on election day, and properly taking care of the
victims of our wars, are both inescapable duties of good
citizenship.

At the bottom of the garden at

To the cemetery were taken In the

The Intereatlng thing about U thU
la that no one of the children at any

No grown-up had taught them to
recoil from death. They a?ceplcd It

This la an excellent attitude tor
children to have. Later on, experi

suffer from the superstitious fear,
the dlnproportlonatc sense of horror
of death that afflicts so many people

Walk for Beer,
Prices of 1832,
Out Goes Our Gold,
Could It, Might It Be?
Copyright King Features 5rn4n Inc
Here and there in New Tork
you see in big letters "Walk
With Walker, For Beer."
Mayor Walker will lead a
procession of oitizens, expected
to number more than a million,
requiring twelve hours to pass
a given point.
The idea of the parade is
"beer for revenue."
Not merely beer to drink, but
beer to raise money by taxation
for the government.
Washington newspaper cor
respondents, in a Cosmopolitan
magazine article quoted by
Cyrus H. K. Curtis' New York
Post, are' happy about beer
prospects. "Good beer will be
selling legally in the United
States within two years regard
less of the Anti-Saloon league,"
according to the correspon
dents. ,
Would they bet on itl Trob
ably not.
At Wellington in New Zealand,
rioters out of work threw atonea at
the house of parliament, 150 wln
dowa were broken, some stores were
robbed.
The amazing news here la that In
some placea food prices have gone
back to the levels of 1332. .
In Texas you may buy eggs for
aeven cents a dozen. Ten and two
tenths cents la the average egg price
over the country. Tou buy butter
for 17 cents In Tenneasee, chickens
for nlna cents a pound In North Da
kota; the country's average la 13.0
cents. Lamb coate 4.3 cents a pound

In the put week 37. 000,000 Amer
ican gold haa gone to Europe. To
day, the steamship Europa will carry
away at least 111,000,000 gold, nearly
all going to Frasnce, a little to Hol
land. Since gold la a fetish, and the lack
of It a calamity, why not keep the
gold that Is here? We did It In the
war, with an embargo.
That need not mean "going off the
gold basis." We can pay In gold IN
SIDE THE UNITED STATES, and for
bid gold exports. The President
might announce to the other powers:
"We're going to keep all the gold
we've got, some four billions, and
we propose to gather at least twice
as much more, until we own 80 per
cent of the world's total gold supply.
If you don't think we can do It,
watch us.
"Our Idea Is to stop foolish shout
ing about the dollar, and foolish talk
aout gold. You can's say wer're
OFT the gold bssls, If we are sitting
ON SO per cent of all the gold on
earth."
COULD It be, AUGHT It be Just
BARELY possible that, In spite of
denials by our "best minds," there
are useful possibilities In certain
kinds of public ownerahlp?
John H. Perry, who owns newspa-
pera and other things, and seems to
make them go, haa Just bought, on
Main street tn Jacksonville, Fie., 900
feet of real estate frontage. That la
enough to make real estate men In
New York, Chicago and aome other
placea turn pale, and shudder vio
lently.
Mr. Perry, In reply to a question,
explains hla purchase thus: "Jack
sonville bellevee tn municipal own
erahlp, owns Its city ltght and power.
from whlia It makes a million and
a half proflta yearly, used to re
duce taxation, owns Its St. John's
rtver frontsgs, which hsa now more
then paid for Itself, and contribute
a quarter of a mlllon a year to re

INSULIN FOR PROGRESSIVE CHRONIC ARTHRITIS.
Arthritis 1 medical
Oreek for
Joint inflammation.
Acute arthritis 1 well understood
Ordinary chronic arthritis, com
monly dubbed
"rheumatism" 1
likewise well
known to bi I
focal infection,
that la, germ of

are cultivated in

In t h tonsil,
about the root
of a tooth, In the pelvic organs of
men or women, lodge in the tissues
of the Joint and et up a low grade
Inflammation there, which eventu
ally seriously cripples the affected
joint.
But there are a minority of case
of chronic progressive arthritis, va
riously known as rheumatoid arthri
tis, atrophic arthritis, arthritis de
formans, which we do not under
stand, and when I say that I mean
no one knows the cause of thl
type of arthritis.
Some students of arthritis have
regarded this atrophic form (atro
phy means wasting and gradual loss
of tuie) as of metabolic nature. That
Is, they assume It depends on some
fault In the assimilation or utiliza
tion of food or the oxidation or
combustion of body tissue. But this
theory Is exceedingly unsatisfactory
and treatment based on It has given
Indifferent results. Of course that
does not prove anything one way
or another.
It Is pretty well agreed among
physicians of experience that infec
tion Is not a factor, at least not
the main factor In this form of ar
thritis. Last year we told here of a method
of treatment which had been used in
Prance with considerable success,
not a cure. Just a helpful treat
ment. This la a course of hypo
dermic Injection of parathyroid
hormone. Only a physician can
safely administer such treatment. It
brings to the patient a definite me
tabolic boost. Increased activity, in
creased well being. Physician who
.tive given such treatment compare
the results with the result of In
sulin treatment In diabetes.
Some English physicians now re
port marked benefit in cases of
chronic progressive or rheumatoid
arthritis from a series of injections
of normal blood and then a course
of Insulin treatment. They give
two blood transfusions of about a
pint each, at Interval of eight days,
and gat the patient up on the ninth
or tenth day, if the patient has been
bedridden or nearly so. The Insulin
is kept up until the patient's weight
Capital punishment Is abominable,

have been useful, eliminating the
naturally murderous and otherwise
dangerous types.
Japan announces as permanent
policy an effort to limit airplane car

this weapon most dangerous to her
cities. Japan also objects to "flying

planes within striking distance of

soon to be built will carry 30 planes
each.
Japan would not object, as far as
the United States Is concerned. Her
