. Why Can 't We Be Fair?
11THT can't we be fair in politics T Why must we, in a politi-
T oal campaign resort to deception and misrepresentation,
in the hope of gaining some political advantage f .
The Oregon Journal is an excellent newspaper. Its policies
are determined by a group of very high-minded and able men.
Yet in its issue of yesterday, it had an editorial, condemning
President Hoover for vetoing the federal relief bill and refusing
to aocept Governor Roosevelt 'b invitation for a conference on
the St. Lawrence canal project.
The Journal tries to make its readers believe that in taking
such action the President waa merely playing partisan politics ;
that he vetoed the relief bill because ho had no interest in the
"fit-gotten man"; that he refused Roosevelt's invitation, be
cause it came from his political rival, and he Uloovcr) is an ally
of the iniquitous power trust,
TIT'S can't believe the Journal is sincere in either of these
" statements. For the editors of the Journal must know,
that President Hoover vetoed the relief bill only because of
the provision, authorizing loans to individuals, and even his
political opponents in congress agreed in conference that such
a radical step would be inadvisable at this time. He demon
strated his interest in the "forgotten man," his devotion to
relief for the people of his country, by agreeing to sign this
measure, with this provision eliminated, oven though there were
other items of which he did not personally approve.
His refusal to accept Governor Roosevelt's invitation for a
conference on the St. Lawrence project, was neither personal
nor partisan. This matter concerned the United States and
Canada, and thoir governments alone, and there was no more
justification for the Governor of New York, asking a place at
that conference, than the Governor-General of Ontario. ' '
It was NOT the President who played politics in this inci
dent, but that master politician ROOSEVELT, who had one eye
on the embarrassment of his opponent and the other on the
vote of the state of New York.
,11TE repeat why can't we be fair in politics! We seriously
" doubt if misrepresentation and deception, in the long,
run, ever make votes. The extreme pnrtisans are pleased on one
fide and enraged on the other; but those who are neither and
hold the balance of power are merely disgusted.
We have an idea there is a real opportunity for a politician
who would insist upon playing fair with his opponents, and only
demand fairness from them. Such an attitude would present
such a refreshing change from the established practice of ultra
partisanship, that we would not be surprised to see the rank
and file rush to him, in sheer gratitude and relief..
A Losing Game
CPEAKING of playing politics we note that District Attorney
George Codding is blamed for the refusal of the county
oourt to hand out $1000 of the tax payers money, to send a
local banker to Washington to lobby for the $6,500,000 railroad
to the coast. k
Everyone knows the District Attorney is no more to blame
for this aotion than the Shah of Persia.
The law makes the District Attorney the legal adviser of the
oounty court. He is bound to give the court his opinion of the
law whenever requested. Such a request was made of him.
and he gave his opinion. That's
Only if the District Attorney's opinion was incorrect could
he be criticized. No claim is made that his opinion was not ac
cording to the law.
IN other words the responsibility for this decision rests solely
upon the members of the county court. It was n fn thorn
and them alone as to whether
tne law in this case, or follow it.
But those determined to get the District Attorney, by fair
means or foul, broadcast in banner type, the charge that "Cod
ding blocks railroad to seal"
In all seriousness could anything be more absurd or unfair I
According to the time-honored code of the slick noliticinna
such tactics pay during a political campaign. Mobbe so. But
we sun retain enough faith m the common sense nd love of
fair play among the people as a whole, to DOUBT it.
In fact we believe that the more unscrupulous and unfair
the attacks on the District Attorney are, the better his chance
in the fall election. We can't believe the people are such easy
marks, as some of our local "Mark Hannas" suppose.
No Politics in It
A FEW words more on the same theme. We heartily agree

As far AS the Mail Tribune) ia
promises the maximum of relief,
iiiuiiiuiinis or interests are in lavor of or against it.
If the project appeals to us as sound and desirable from
whatever direction it comes, we ARE FOR JT. If it doesn't
appeal to us as either, we are against it, and DON'T CARE
WHO KNOWS IT.
We question the possibility of securing $b300,000 govern
ment aid, either through the relief bill or the reconstruction
finance corporation, for a railroad to the coast AT THIS TIME.
But if it CAN be done then all we can say is let THOSE
WHO BELIEVE SO GO TO IT, and the Mail Tribune pledges

TRIBUNE, MEDFORD,

By Arthur Brisbane
Notice To Europe,
Father 79, Baby 8 Lbs,
Two In Electric Chair,
Yes, We Are Docile,
Copyright King Postures Synd. Ino
Like gang members, collect
ing on a corner to decide on the
next profitable enterprise, a
number of Europe's nations are
said to have organized NOT to
pay money borrowed from
Uncle Sam.
They will not relish Presi
dent Hoover's letter to Senator
Borah which says "I DO NOT
PROPOSE THAT THE AMER
ICAN PEOPLE SHALL BE
PRESSED INTO ANY LINE
OF ACTION OR THAT OUR
POLICIES SHOULD BE IN
ANY WAY INFLUENCED BY
SUCH A COMBINATION,
EITHER OPEN OR IM
PLIED." This serves notice on Europe
that this country expocts them
to pay.
It is probable that they will
NOT pay, and the United
States would not g(f to war to
force payment.
But the president has given
notice that they can't combine
to "save their faces" and force
us to pretend that we like the
proposed "welching."
.
Following that Interesting state
ment from President Hoover, comes
the announcement that he has cut
his own salary 115,000 reducing it
from 175,000 a year to $90,000, which
Is th maximum cut of 30 per cent
allowed under the law. The salaries
of cabinet members he reduced 15 per
cent, from 15,000 a year to U,750,.
under secretaries 10 per cent.
Tt Is amusing In the government
of a republic by big business, to find
the richest country In the world com
pelled to cut salaries. Prance pays
her president four times what w pay
ours and doesn't ask him to cut his
salary.

PHYSICAL EDUCATION IS
When the high school teacher who
rains his pupils In football rises to
defend biology from my attacks on
the farce the high schools make or

are getting off

That la perhaps
One of the prin

both hygiene and

tion are so In

with In our com
mon schools.
There Is no more
Intimate assocl
tton or relation
between physios! training and physi
ology or hygiene than there la be
tween chemistry and general house

everywhere the two subjects are con
fusedly Jumbled together In an aim
less way and If there la no official
physical Instructor the whole silly
mess Is left to the mercy of what
ever teacher happens to have some
spare time or even a nurse If she has
nothing else to do.
I am aware that students In
schools or colleges of phylcal educa
tion receive Instruction In anatomy
and physiology, and I am aware that
students of nursing in some schools.
well as students of medicine and
students of the arts in some colleges.
receive more or less physical educa
tion.. But I do not believe such
training qualifies any individual to
teach both physical education and
physiology and hygiene In any
school.
Human anatomy la at least aa Im
portant as algebra, from any point of
view. A fair elementary knowledge
of anatomy, such as any eighth grade
pupil could gain in a term, Is abso
lutely essential as a preliminary to
the study of physiology, and physical
education has practically nothing to
do with the question.
Before anyone can hope to learn
how to keep well, and that is the
purpose of all study of hygiene, he
must have a fundamental knowledge
of physiology. He must know how
the body works when it la normal if
he hopes to care for It Intelligently
when It is sick or working abnor
mally. Such a knowledge of physi
ology suiilclent tor his needs could
be obtained by every school pupil If
the study of physiology were klven

Oregon Indians'
Condition Today
Written by Mm. R. C. Van Yalzah
and read before Crater Lake Chap
ter, D. A. R.
(Note Since this article was writ
ten there .have been before congress
several bills relating to Indian af
fairs In Oregon, which when passed
and put Into effect will change many
of the conditions mentioned).
Chapter 6v
On both the Warm Springs and
Klamath reservations there la much
discontent and dissatisfaction con
cerning the tribal range and the
gracing leases. Under the permis
sions Issued by .the superintendent,
the white sheep men have crowded
Vie Indian cattleman out. ' Certain
flections are leased to the sheepmen
for summer range. These are all
taken up and the Indians have no
feed for their cattle. They must sell
or see their cattle starve. Once sold
out they have no money to begtn
aatn and with no range to begin
them a foothold.
The act of 1891 give to the tribal
council authority to lease the lands.
T.e Indian bureau defeata this by
Issuing t,raal ng permlta and lea.e the
land without the consent ot the
tribal council. When eomplalnta are
made the superintendent is evasive
and says there la no available range.

few years the Indiana saw that It
was quite profitable to raise sheep
and some of them are going Into the

of the Klamath tribe who bought

NOT HEALTH CULTURE.
The practice of Including little
smatterings of alleged physiology In
a shortcut joblot course which stag
gers along under the ponderous title
of "Biology" Is just one of those
cheap tricks of freak educators, op
portunists, faddists, who have evl'
dently achieved the ascendancy In
educational administration -for the
time being.
As long as the school follow the
present dumb policy the people of
this country will remain what they
are now, a fine lot ot prospects for
every conceivable line of hoknm that
bids for patronage with health ap
peal.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Constitution.
What do people mean when they
say person has a strong or weak
constitution? C. A. J.
Answer So far as I know It has
no other meaning than that the per
son enjoys good health or Is 'n poor
health.
X-ray Picture.
Have been advised by doctor to
have JC-ray of my stomach. Will
X-ray show If there is evidence of
ulcer or cancer? Mrs. M. C. F.
Answer It may.
Every Boy In Camp.
About our 13-year-old boy going
to a Boy Scout camp. He recently
recovered, from scarlet fever and was
told by a neighbor we should not let
him go swimming for three months,
and that he must wear woolen band
around his stomach for a year- C.
0.
Answer The poor kid. By all
means send him to camp. Every boy
should have a month In camp every
summer. Every girl, too, for that
matter. Unless there is some com
plication which constrains your phy
sician to caution against swimming,
the boy should enjoy all the swim
ming possible, in the open air. Let
him use that belly band to polish
his shoes. That's too ridiculous.
Anti-Venom Keeps for Tears.
My husband Is a road contractor
and as I spend part of the summer
with him I bought, at your sugges
tion, a package o; anti-venom for
preparedness against snake bite. I
have had It two yerrs now, and as yet
no occasion to use It. Does It deter
iorate on long keeping? Mrs. E. F. J.
Answer No, it keeps for at least
five years. Every one exposed to the
hazard of bite by rattlesnake, cop
perhead or moccasin shuold carry a
package of an ti -venom in the first
aid kit. By following directions on
the package any one may adminis
ter it. .
