XE are glad that the Hutchinson family have been rescued " from a watery grave, after the crack-up of their plane on the barren coast of Greenland. Death to any of them, would have been too high a price to pay, even for the needed lesson such a tragedy would have taught. But we hope, the fortunate ture, will be ascribed where it and that Mr. and Mrs. Hutchinson will not offer their children again, as hostages to fortune, and their desire to shine in the limelight of international aeronautics. QTAGING trans-Atlantic flights for publicity purposes alone is a questionable procedure only one individual without dependents is involved. But where parents, with young children, risk the lives of the latter, and themselves, just to add novelty and color to the venture, it is time publie opinion called a halt. We trust when the Hutchinson family return to New York, that the people of our modern Babylon, go a little slow on ticker tape, reception , committees and the turning of movie camera cranks. Everyone rejoices the "Flying family" have been able to return safe and sound, but there should be sufficient coolness in the reception, to convince them and other air and publicity minded families that the people of the country don't care to have them repeat the effort, or followed, until long ocean flights have been rendered less haZ' ardous. Has Roosevelt Gone Republican? IECLARING he has lived on a farm for fifty years, Governor Roosevelt tells the dirt farmers of the Kansas corn belt, what he wilj do for them, if he This speech his first on demonstrates two things which more gppgren 8g the campaign FIRST, the striking similarity between the basic policies 0 jn() two mgjor parties ; and' which the democratic candidate mjle to jnjeot jn tne campaign; AS to the first. Mr. Roosevelt of course, opposes the farm board, which is generallyunpopular in the corn belt. But the COOPERATIVE PRINCIPLE, of MARKETING,, which is the basic principle of that farm The Republican administration has opposed a farm subsidy, and refused to sanction the McNary-IIaugcn bill. Roosevelt does the same thing. The Republican administration stands for a protective tariff on farm products. Mr Roosevelt flays the Smoot-IIawlcy' bill (ailing it for campaign purposes the Grundy tariff) but in another portion of his speech, endroses "a tariff protection to the farmer, similar to the protection acoorded the American manufacturer." r . 'T'HAT is precisely the Republican position. , Mr. Roosevelt deplores raising prices the farmer has' to pay, by tariff rates j but only a few weeks ago in his New Jersey speech, he declared he wanted labor in this country protected from pauper labor in foreign lands, which is the cornerstone of G. 0. P. tariff prooodure. ' THAT is what the Republicans want, and that is all that party has tried to secure. In short, in his speeches thus far, Mr. Roosevelt demonstrates by his own words, that the differences between his party and the opposing party on the farm problem and the tariff, arc the differences between twecdle dum and tweedle dee merely those superficial differences between the "Outs" who want to gct ; and the ..jn, who at 'PHIS truth was clearly shown the other day when the writer waa in California. Following Roosevelt's New Jersey speech, an alarmed citrus grower wrote to a Los Angolcs editor, asking if the Democratic candidate's policy of tariff reduction meant, he favored "lowering the tariff on Sicilian lemons, dried milk and Chinese eggs." ' A member of the Democratic state central committee has tened to say, that auch was emphatically not the case, that Governor Roosevelt favored granting every necessary tariff pro tection to the California farmer. If this is true and no doubt it is, and as Mr, Roosevelt has pledged himself to a protective labor to compete successfully' will some bright person toll us two major parties, differ, on this truth is, THEY DON'T! A Dirt TTHE. unconscious humor which Governor Roosevelt inject' In this first speeoh, is his statement that he has lived on a farm in New York state for fifty years, and, therefore quali fies as a practical farmer who knows whereof he speaks. All that is needed to develop that humor, would be to throw on a screen a view of that humble Roosevelt "farm," showing Franklin, as a Harvard undergraduate, doing his daily chores around the milking shed I A FARMER for half a century I Governor Roosevelt is just fifty years old, As he spent five 6r sit years at Groton, four years at Ilarvard, and then after Btudying law at Columbia, and entering a law office in Now York City, immediately went to Albany and has been in practical politics ever since, the precise activities which qualify him to assume that role, would be interesting to seel TPHE truth is Mr. Roosevelt was boxn on his family's country estate in Hydo Tark, New York, one of the most exclusive and aristocratic districts in the entire state, which is no dis credit to him whatever, but which we feel scarcely qualifies him to pose as a farm born lad. with 50 vears of nractical farm- :.. .,,....

When Airmen Rebel, Copyright King Feature Syntt, Ino Maine appears to have gnne democratic. That is the big news this morning. When Maine, home of Neal Dow, Desert of Saraha dry and Gi braltar of republicanism, goes democratic in a wet year, it needs no ghost from the grave to tell what will probably happen. To realize the importance of Maine's somersault, you must remember that Maine lacks the great industrial plants, with their tens of thousands idle and discontented, as in Pennsyl vania.and other states. Wall Street was in a doubtful mood yesterday, something like a child's balloon that can't make up its mind whether to go up or come down. Wall Street went down a little, then came up a little. It did not like the news from Maine. Campers near Elrama, Pa., digging Into a hillside, uncovered skeletons of human beings that lived In America thouaanda of yeara before the noble Redman came, supposedly from Asia. These earlier Americans, according to scientists, examlng their skull, had more Intelligence than the Indian that foUowed them. They were "doll- cocephallc," which mean "long head ed," and their skull bone was thin. which Indicate that they had been thinking for a long time. But their Jawa were heavy and primitive, show ing lack of balance. Invadera from Asia, probably bet ter fighters, wiped them out. The learned Professor Darwin, now 83 yeara old, son of the great Darwin, say our civilization I going to pieces soon, If we do not breed a better race of white folks. The kind produced la about ready to go downward, a other civilization have done before us. What we need, according to Darwin, la more sons and daughters with In telligent fathera and mothers, In place of the present plan, which leaves most breeding to the "lower class." However, a so-called "lower-class" mother that WANTS a baoy, and Is ready to nurse It, may be better for civilization than a higher class lady that turns the baby over to somebody else while the fixes her eyebrows and her Hps.

Two men who were excessive smok ers passed out o suddenly and mya terlously that post-mortem Investiga tion was ordered The post-mortem proved that the men had been poisoned. Not by any m y s t e rlous drug Incorporat ed In their cigars or clgareta, but by what In Ger many passe excellent tobacoo - and In this coun try would be called El Cabbaglo or Simon Pure Alfalfa. Both of these tobacco hoga had coronary sclerosis. That mean hardening and thicken ing of the artery that auppllea blood to the heart muscle ltaelf. There was something peculiar and Interesting about the arterial sclerosis In these two caacs. It was confined to the coronary arteries. It did not even slightly affect the aorta (great artery) nor was there any sign of arterios clerotic change in the cerebral and renal artertea (brain and kidney) which are Invariably Involved In hon est arterto-sclerosi. Now, girls, I want to be perfectly frank with you. Whatever anlmad versions I may have made In years past about women smoking, I now say that so far a I know the temperate use of tobacco Is no more injurious to a woman than It la to a man, I still Insist, and without fear of com petent, contradiction, that even mode) rate or occasional use of tobacco Is Injurious to the health of any youth. male or female, who ha not yet at tained full adult growth and develop ment. It sems to me, and In this I ac knowledge I may be biased, that young women' who get Into the smoking habit are more Inclined to carry It to excess than are young men. Be that aa It may. It la certain that male to bacco hogs have no monopoly on the selective poisonous effect of tobacco on the coronary arteries. It will not be long now, I am afraid, before the women will begin to rival the men In the coroner's records. Real or pseudo angina pectoris, coronary embolism or thrombosis, and startllngly audden deaths from "acute Indigestion" (where the community prefers to aave post-mortem expenses) will give the smoking women something to worry about. Even now the list of cases ' of pseudo-duodenal ulcer, which waa formerly composed almoet exclusively of men, includes a good many young women. , When tobacco poisoning produces lta first manifestation there Is likely to be trining but persistent trouble In the nose, throat or bronchial region; later come gastric symptoms, such as heartburn, acidity, ulcer-complex; fi nally cardiac manifestations. The drug seems to have a special affinity for the vagus or parasympathetic sys tem, which Is the unconclous -or au tonomic control mechanism for lungs, stomach and heart. People who use tobacco In excess pierce. Then cannon men made a can non that would pierce It easily and ao on. Chicago ha the same sort of con test between gunmen and payroU pro tectors.

But who shall say whether an individual's habit In this respect are temperate or Im moderate? Who shall define tem perate smoking? QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS. Corn Versos Wheat. At our house we are very fond of corn bread made from a fine grade of augar flint white corn meal. Tola 1 so sweet It requires no artificial sweetening In making corn bread or muffins. Such corn cakes, with milk and eggs, stick to my ribs. Can you Inform me whether this corn meal Is as nourishing as whole wheat flour? C. H. H, Answer Any corn meal yield from 16S0 to 1700 calorie per pound. Whole wheat flour yield approximately the same. If milk and eggs are used In making the corn cakes, It doesn't mat ter much nutritively whether you pre fer corn meal or whole wheat flour, Perhaps your favorite variety of corn meal runs a little higher In calorie. Buttermilk. I drink a quart of buttermilk every day. Have been using Blank'a brand exclusively. But recently I tried to get It In a country atore and the wo man there gave me buttermilk dl' rect from the farm. She claimed Blank's Is an artificial product pre pared by dropping pills In the milk that returns . . . (P. R.)

Heroic Treatment. I took the advice of one of your correspondent, and cloeed my left hand tightly and struck the ganglion or "weeping sinew" I had on the back of the wrist a sharp blow with my right knuckles. It hurt, but to my delight the thing disappeared like msglc. It had been there for a long time. Mrs. H. S. Answer1 That'a one of those sim ple things I never could get up the courage to try. The other thing is having a baby. I nursed my ganglion tenderly for at least 10 years, and finally It disappeared without any treatment. Now If I could only have a baby as easily a that, boy .

A lack of the much desired green ness has been noted at school grounds In the country districts for many years and a campaign for planting of flowers and lawns Is underway, Mrs. Una B. Inch, school supervisor, re ported. In the Applegate valley Irrigation ditches add much beauty to the coun tryside, where sheep and cattle range, the school grounds, however, where children Join In games and spend the greater part of each year of their lives, are dry and barren of flowers. Rural schools now Include a repre sentative group of children coming from all sections of the United States, a great many of them from the lead ing cltlea, with the noticeable trend to return to the farm, Mrs. Inch pointed out. There Is no longer the so-called rural child In any district, and with the higher atsndards, estab lished In each community, has come a natural demand for more beautiful surroundings as well as better educa tton for children.

We think that too much quoting and mis-quoting of the Bible 1 being done by Mr. Bank In hi Dally Newa and by Mr. Earl Pehl In his Record Herald and In hi speeches. It may be considered clever to point black white, and whit black, but the limit of Christian patience la reached when Inspired Scripture is quoted with meanlnga which th Lord God never Intended, and util ized to serve political purposes. Thl mli-use of Scripture 1 a amart trick, because unfortunately many good and devout people awallow It whole; they don't top to analyze the quota tion or the ulterior purpose back of It; they Just Jump at the conclusion that any one who quotes the Blblels sincere and must have had Christian training and therefore Is Just the man to vote for or believe. As an example, consider Mr. Fehl' front page editorial In his Record Herald of September 1st. He makes two statement, commenting on the Mall Trlbune'a looking for a father of the Judge Norton recall movement. "The Bible eay: 'Call no man father'." "There are a lot of .creation In this world that know who their mother l. but few could wear to their father' Identity." In th first place, the Bible Intend ed no such meaning to thl quotation as Mr. Pehl Implies. Combined wltb. the vulgar statement auggestlng Ille gitimacy of many people. I consider thl mis-use of the Bible not only disgusting but positively sacrlllglou and blasphemous. Among God' ten commandment handed down to u 1 thl one: "Thou ahalt not take the name of the Lord thy God In vain." While many people apply this commandment to awearlng and cursing. It also applies to twist ing the Word of God to devious meaning for ulterior purposes. It would seem to me that one who doe so should worry more about the re action or the wrath to come, than he would from taking the name of the Lord In vain when he loses his tem per In his office or business and curses incidentally. , Mr. Banks often flavor hi editor ials with Biblical quotations, and In his Sunday Issue of September 11th, stressed editorially the many Bible verses recited in Mr. Fehl's speech against Judge Norton two nights pre vious at the armory. But I think he reached the limit In hla "Once In a While" of September 13th, when he compared Earl Fehl to Christ. "Jesu of Nazareth had harmed no man. Mr. Earl H. Fehl haa harmed no man. Jesus had violated no law, either legal or moral. Earl Fehl had violated no law either legal or moral, ete., etc." ' During the primary political cam paign, on last June 16th, the Rev.v Jos. M. Johnson of Central Point had the courage to dare to suggest to Mr. Banks and the Dally News that a halt 1 be called in the mud-sllnglng cam paign of several months' duration, and ended with a Biblical quotation about Judging others. Back came Banks with a vitriolic editorial against this minister of the gospel, Including a quotation from the Scrip tures to prove that he (Banks) wa right. Is every editor and political candi date RIGHT, Just because he. can quote the Scriptures? "ONLY A WOMAN" (Name on File) P. S.: I will not here quote the Scripture, but may I refer the reader to a prayerful reading of the follow ing paassges of scripture: Titus 1:15 16: 3 Corinthians 11:13-15; 1 These. 11:14-34.
