The summer flu now current, has
leu sportsmanship than the winter
flu.
California salesmen are circulating
and tell Ford stories, end make
money clink m their pockets, and
sneer at the depression. The Port -
land drummera come with lsmenta -
tions about the tax burden, the col-
lapse of government, alleged funny
stories besmirching Hoover, and a
look of resignation ahrouds their
mugs. The gents from the sister
state to the south, seem to be selling
the most fishing paraphanalla, cal-
lco, beam, and pest exterminator.

After listening to six hours

or they never win. And from the crest of the first ballot hill,
j tley steadily decline, never to return.
, ... .. ' , ., ., .,
I But with the New York governor it was the other way. On
i the second ballot he gained one
five. This certainly indicates that unless the convention settles
into a hopeless deadlock, Roosevolt will win.
And if we judge the sentiment of the convention correctly,
it is dead set against staging any repetition of the Smith
McAdoo battle royal of eight years ago. That struggle hurt
the party, and resulted in a compromise that failed to win.
And above everything else these delegates want to win.
Moreover, the delegates are tired. They want to get home.
Al Smith will nover quit. But the fact that he lost seven
votes on the second ballot, and two on the third, strongly indi
cates, that sooner or later his supporters will. And when they
do, the battle is over, as far as Al is concerned.
OUT of course, ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE in politics, and
there is still a chance of stopping Roosevelt, and giving the
nomination to a dark horse. The corner stone of this chance
lies in the fact that Roosevelt
own state, the most important
New York.
This gives the anti-Roosevelt forces a strong talking point.
And of course, they will make the most of it. There is still the
ohance, although a remote one, that New York will throw
its strength to Ritchie of Maryland or Baker of Ohio, and
force the Roosevelt shock troops to crumble.
But the chances of the Smith forces doing this are about the
'same, as the chance of picking the number of the slot in which
that aforesaid little ball will fall.
"Great Work Chan!"
AT the age when most golfers have put their championship
aspirations away in moth balls, and settled oomfortably
into "just a respectable game," H. Chandler Egan of the Med
ford Golf club not Wavcrly as the Portland scribes continue
to maintain, is hitting par, and has a good chance of annex
ing again the Northwest title.
So while we can't give those democrats in Chicago very
much, we can and herewith do-give our own Chan a great
big hand.
Even if ho is put out today that big hand goes. For yes
terday he put out Doo Willing, not only one of the greatest
tournament players in the country, but the man who eliminated
Chan in the national amateur at Pebble Beach, three years ago.
t e
11TE have no inside information, but we have a strong
" hunch, that revenge for that defeat was the one thing
in golf, Chan had his heart set on. He lost to Willing in the
quarter finals in 1929, he put out Willing yesterdy 5 to 4 in
the quarter finals in Portland.
To do that took a fine grade of fighting spirit, exceptional
determination and, if we may gay so, genuine stamina and
character.
In fact the Egan record in golf, is as far as we know unique
in the game, and something of which he and his homo town
may well be proud. Winner of the national title over a quarter
of a century ago, he gets to the quarter finals in the national
and the quarter finals in the Northwest, against golf stars who
weren't born, when he first won the crown.
Some achievement, Chan, and some boost for the older boys
and the older girls for that matter!

THE EARMARKS OF
On general ethical principals It Is
clearly the duty of the medical pro
fession everywhere to make It easy
for a stranger to
find & reputable
physician when
there Is need of
one. But owing
to poor organiza
tion and the lack
of leadership the
medical profes
sion falls In this
duty to the pub
11c In most large
communities.
Here and there
the local medical society maintains
a central office or Information bur
eau, where anybody may call or tele
phone to ask for the name and of
fice address of a reliable physician
or even for a specialist. This plan
proves satisfactory In the smaller
towns. In the larger cities It Is not
so satisfactory, . for various reasons
too many physicians, too wide an
area. However, In some large cities
several nucb bureaus are maintained
In different sections of the city,
and this Is at least better than no
service at all.
In the largest cities It Is coming
to be the custom of the profession
to publish In the local newspapers
from time to time a complete list of
members of the local medical society.
Of course It does not follow that a
doctor Is a good doctor or even relia
ble Just because he happens to hold
membership In a medical society, but
still If a stranger chooses a doctor
who Is vouched for, as to his pro
fessional standing, by the local acad
emy of medicine or county medical
society the chances are that the doc
tor la okeh.
Suppose a stranger In town sud
denly requires medical aid. A casual
acquaintance suggests Dr. John Doe.
Doe may be all right or he may be
all wrong. The only way to check
on Doe la to look In the telephone
director for the office of the county
medical society of the academy of
medicine, and ask whether Dr. John
Doe, of such and such an address.
Is a member or a physician of good
professional standing. This may seem
excess of precaution, but In some
cities quackery and crookery run
rampant and little reliance can be
placed on the significance of the title
of "Doctor."
Legislatures Jbave perpetrated so
many trick laws about the piratical
use of this title that It doesn't mean
anything now. The laity at present
is in the same position as was the

Interpretation of the Preamble to the
Constitution of the United States
By
Rear Admiral Sumner E. W. Klttelle
(Retired) U. S. Navy
In drafting the Constitution of the
United Statea our forefathers aft
forth In the Preamble six primary
principles that should form the creed
of every red-blooded American. These
principles are (1) Maintenance of a
perfect union, (3) Establishment of
Justice, (3) Insurance of domestic
tranquility. (4) Provide defense. (6)
Promote general welfare, (6) Secure
liberty. Let us see how faithful we
have been to this our national creed.
The union we have maintained, al
though it had to be dona with vio
lence at one time, and now we hope
that it rests upon a permanent basis.
While Justice may be aatd to have
been wisely provided for, neverthe
less, today our laws are often 'most
unjust and our courts have often
failed to meaaure up to the atand
arda of either England or Canada.
Lawlessness reigns In our midst,
the prevalent feeling of the failure
of Justice hsvlng bred a contempt
for all law. Aa to domeatlc tranquil
ity, we have It not. In all hlatory,
alnoe the founding of the govern
ment, there has never been a time
when tranquility was farther re
moved from our people. Mammon
has, seemingly, been placed upon the
throne of our national life and as a
result our people today are ground
between two millstones, the upper
stone consisting of the International
and auosldlary national banking In
terests and the great trusts: and the
nether stone made up of organized
crime which sets at naught the lawa
of the country and levlea tribute on
all walks of Ills. So It must be ap

Answer It la true that chocolate

all the rest of It Is absurdly exag
gerated. Theobromln has virtually
no effect on the cerebrum, or on
the nerves, but la a mild heart stim

stimulation of the kidneys that I
deem cocoa or chocolate unsuitable

bad lasted four hours, instead
of forty-five minutes. "Hon

is helping a quartette to sing
into the microphone. A brass
band on the floor is playing
another tune independently.
Some one from Massachusetts takes
to the platform, dangerously crowd
ed, a banner with a poem, last line:
"Al Smith will bring u to the port
of real prosperity."
zMadame Rose Zalullan la sieg
ing a beautiful song about being
lonely and loving "only you." When
she stops there Is the loudest yelling
that the hall has heard thus far.
"Auld Lang Syne," "Baby Mine," with
"Sidewalks of New York" mixed In
faithfully, delight a crowd that has
settled down to enjoy itaelf.
The Illinois 'delegation had no In
tention of Joining the Smith parade
around the hall. But Joe McDon
ough of Chicago decides otherwise.
He la Irish, welgha 300 pounds, all
muscle, and cannot understand, In
any language, even Gaelic, the mean
ing of the word no. He comes down
from the gallery, being only an al
ternate and requiring a wide seat,
seizes the Illinois banner.
There is no religious prejudice in
him, as far as Al Smith is concerned.
The Illinois delegation Joins in. It
could not sit minus a banner.
New York sits tight, not a Tam

the parade. Mr. Curry, chief of the
Hall, stood for a while, looking about,
then sat down. Mayor Walker, whose
seat Is next to Curry's Is not visible
from this spot. Gene Tunney, whose
height carries his sight far, reports
that Mayor Walker is not In hla chair.
Perhaps you would like to read
something not political. But, wait
a minute. Madame Rose Is back,
singing "I Love You Only," and al
though It may teat your credibility.
her beautiful voice stops all the howl
ing. Nothing more interesting has
happened since Orpheus Boothed the
savage breasts, long ago.
A tall man, light suit, standing

father knew about real estate, before
1929; probably knows more, now. The
