Not So
TPHERE is one thing about Franklin Roosevelt, he is not
lacking in self confidence. In every speech he has made
thus far, the high point is reached when he assumes a militant
Rooseveltian pose, and declares what he will do when he enters
the White House on March 4, next. According to press reports,
this statement never fails to meet with an outburst of cheers
and applause, far greater in intensity and volume, than greets
his outline of policies.
rOE this there is a reason. The democrats want to win this
year, and believe they will win, regardless of what their
candidate may do or say. So when their expectations are con
firmed, they wildly applaud and cheer, even though the remarks
of their standard bearer, leave them in some doubt as to just
what he WILL do when he does, as he is so certain of doing
occupy the White House.
In other words there is considerable justification for the
statement from Republican headquarters, that the Democratic
candidate is losing votes every time he speaks. This truth is
gradually permeating the rank and file of his party and tends
to chill both their confidence and enthusiasm. But when their
"Happy Warrior" bangs his fists', sticks out his chin, and ac
cepts his entrance into the White House as an accomplished fat t,
all their doubts and fears vanish, and they wave their hats and
shout their approval, in good old-fashioned style.

IF President Hoover SHOULD win, and the Literary Digest
straw votes indicate at least that possibility, one hesitates
to view the resulting tableaux.
For a modest, unassuming candidate, the blow would be hard
enough. But for a boastful and exuberantly confident one, the
blow would be simply devastating. Such an outcome would not
only remove Franklin Roosevelt from national politics forever,
but the party he is leading would be lucky to survive, for
another presidential campaign.
IN our opinion, this air of self confidence and bravado, does
the democratic candidate no good, and even from the stand
point of political strategy is of questionable value. For after
all, a presidential campaign is not a sporting event It is 8 very
solemn affair, involving grave issues and the future of a great
country. The flamboyant assumption of a knockout victory,
may help the fortunes of a heavyweight contender, by under
mining the morale of his opponent. , But we doubt if it works
that way, in a contest for the highest honor in the gift of the
American people, an office of the greatest power and most
solemn responsibility, in the civilized world.
Governor Roosevelt we believe, would lose nothing, and gain
a great deal, in the esteem and respect of the American people,
if he exhibited the restraint and good taste, to replace that
"WHEN" I eater the White "House with an "IF."
Roosevelt Better Keep Still
IS this claim that Governor Roosevelt is losing votes every time
he speaks, merely a lot of partisan hooey t
We don't think so. We honestly believe it is true. No can
didate for President was ever nominated with more things in
his favor. Three years of depression, a seething spirit of revolt
and desire for change, among the people. Had he stayed on his
front porch in Hyde Park, and said nothing, we don't believe
he could have been beaten, .
He may not be now. As politics go he still has all the better
of it.
But, on the other hand, to date there is no doubt he has
lost both votes and popularity by his round-the-circle speeches.
IN one of his first speeches he vigorously assailed the generally
detested international bankers, for example. But now the
San Francisco Chronicle, deolares, and backs up that declaration
with a photostatic copy of an advertisement in its columns,
that Franklin D. Roosevelt, on Ootober 12, 1922, was President
of the "United European Investors, Ltd," engaged in inter
national banking, "organized to centralize the many billions of
mark holdings in America to participate in the large earnings
and dividends of German industries."
Everyone knows what happened to German market Certain
ly Roosevelt made no votes by THAT speech, whioh uncovered
his own activities as an international banker, only 10 years agol
a
I JE then assailed the Republican protective tariff, and pro-
cecdod to endorse the basio prinoiple of that tariff, which
is to protect American labor from the cheap labor of Europe.
No votes there, merely confusion.
In his forgotten man speech he condemned the Republican
administration for using R. F. C. funds to aid Big Business and
wealthy corporations, instead of aiding the common people.
But before the railroad men of Pocatello, Idaho, he EN
DORSED federal financial aid for the railroads, the largest
corporations and the biggest big business in the land and
pledged himself to continue such aid, not with temporary credit,
but long-time credit. ' v
The Republicans charged this recommendation was taken
bodily from President Hoover's message to congress on railroads
last December. A reading of that message shows that credit
looking to the long view for the railroads was what the Presi
dent proposed.
ND so on all uown the line. When President Hoover cour
ageously opposed the immediate payment of the bonus, in
the face of a hostile Legion convention, Governor Roosevrlt in
Colorado, was asked by a newspaper reporter how he stood on
the bonus question.
"How many times are you going to ask me that question,"
replied tho Democratio candidate testily, "I have nothing to
say."
A candidate for President
has nothing to say on one of
present campaign.

Some news is good, some is
gloomy. California sends cheer

able surgeon of the Pacific
coast, reports that in his going
to and fro, which includes use
of flying machines for hurried
operations, he finds much more
optimism, and says he: "Op
timism must come first."
The American Machine and

In the days whe'n attacking Darwin
was popular, before those that used
to fight him began fitting their
teaohlngs to his science, the question
was frequently asked: "Where are
your connecting links?"
When Darwin said life began In the
ocean, that creaturea came up from
the water and gradually made them
selves at home on land, anti-Darwinians
asked: "Where la your link be
tween water animals and land ani
mals?"
The question la answered now by
aclentlflo expedition that brings
back from Greenland many samples
of ategocephall fossils, an animal fish
with four legs, between a fish and a
frog in the scale of evolution.
Over five thousand such specimens
were found on the Greenland shore,
plenty of evidence. Missing links,
and their cash value, sold to mu
seums, would be enough to pay the
oost of a three years' expedition.
Sclentlata classify evolution of life
on the planet Into five principal
groups: First, fish, then frogs, then
reptiles, then birds, finally mammals,
ouraelvea. The birds, able to fly out
of danger, might have ruled the earth
Inntead of ourselves. But once they
got wings they probably etopped
thinking. All they had to do was fly
from danger. Our feeble, two-legged
ancestors had to stay on earth, fight
it out, and use their brains, so they
won.
Prince Knud, young son of the king
of Denmark, went on that expedition,
spending long months at hard work,
aettlng a good example to other sons
of kings, Including sons of American
mottey kings. '

One side of Mussolini's character
waa seen when ha negotiated a treaty
restoring limited temporal power to
the pope, the right to Issue money

for the tiny Vatican territory.
Another side of Mussolini's charac
ter, his real attitude toward "tem
poral power", waa Shown Sunday,
when he dedicated a monument com
memorating the capture of Rome
front troops of the pope In 1970.
The monument stands on the spot
"where fighting Italian troops, the
Bersagllerl charged through the
pepe'a troops and broke their resis
tance." King Victor Kmanuel, be
lieved to be a good Catholic, attended
the ceremontea with Mussolini and

The Oeservatore Romano, organ of
the Vatican, calls the ceremony an
offense to the church, suggesting
other heroism would have been

- THE CLEANLINESS OBSESSION
When an ides more or less domi
nates a person's actions yet the per
son knows the Idea Is false or un
reasonably exag
gerated, we say
the person Is ob
aessed by the
Idea, or has an
obsession. If the
person falls to
recognise the
falsity of the Idea
and goes to ab
surd lengths with ,
it, we call it a
phobia, fiuch per
sons are not nec
essarily Insane but perhaps In the
borderland, a. bit eccentric. If the
Idea Is unreasonable or unnatural,
yet the person Insists it Is true and
commits singular deeds under the
urge of the Idea, that constitutes
frank Insanity with delusions or
hallucinations.
Now as I see It, everybody is kind a
crazy about cleanliness except myself.
Nearly everybody considers It neces
sary to bruah his teeth In order to
keep them clean. If perchance a
queer bird turns up who seldom or
never brushes hla teeth, Just about
the time I get to chatting with him
he suddenly goes Into a sneer and lets
me know he haa a bath tub, maybe
a collection of them, and deems It
de rlgueur for gentlemen, sah, to
wallow In the tub at least every Sat
urday night.
If I could conscientiously do so.
Td come out cleanly for a law or
ordinance prohibiting the Installation
of bath tubs except In hospitals,
sanitariums or the homes of helpless
Invalids. I'd dicker with the national
tiling association and the exclusive
plumbers' guild for a subsidy to en
able me to promote the more ex
tensive use of shower stalls in homes,
and a statute Inflicting a heavy fine
on hotels, boarding houses and tour
ists camps found maintaining a com
mon tub. But I can't accept such &
retainer, you know, because I be
lieve it doesn't make a particle of
difference whether you have your own
private bath or use any old bath
which Is not engaged at the moment,
and likewise I believe any old tub
or receptacle you choow or are com
pelled to bathe in Is quite as sanitary
as the grandest shower ever built.
All body washing Is wholly a mat
ter of personal comfort and not at all
a matter of hygiene or health.
Hand washing la a very different
matter. For a nation that makes ar
much noise about Its body washing
these United States use far leas soap
and water than should be used for
the protection of health.
Instead of Issuing sweet homilies
on the Joys of the morning bawth
that will be Inherited by Dr. Ryan's
children. The title Is conferred upon
the head of New York's public schools
"In recognition of his services to edu
cation, the church and the commu
nity generally."
Dr. Ryan waa already a Knight of
Honor of the Order of St. John the
Baptist In Spain. He has the cross
of the papal order of Loretto, the
equestrian order of the Holy Sepul
chere of Jerusalem and various sim
ilar honors.
In addition to being president of
the board of education in New York
since 1023, Dr. Ryan Is a member of
the board of higher education and a
trustee In the Roman Catholic or
phan asylum.
The United States public health
service proves that mice, ordinarily
susceptible to cancer, can be made
immune by Inoculation.
The female mice develop immunity
readily, and the immunizing opera
tion Is performed curiously. Th mice
are Inoculated with cancer In their
tails, and. after the cancer tumors
develop, they are cut off with the
talis. Those thus treated become im
mune. Treatment for human beings
is far away, but science Is gradually
working toward success.
Solemn faced men governing Russia
smile when Prance begins "talks'
about seeking "an assured petroleum

relations between Russia and France.
Russians know well what the petro

is more precious than gold. Tanks
and airplanes must move, petroleum
supplies power. The Russians know
that France Is expecting trouble with
Germany, much sooner than It will
probably come.
New York City, like a very big
snowball, grows more rapidly than
the rest of the country. Since 1SG0
the percentage of Increase in New

other boroughs. In the last hundred

Graft Is the reason why municipal

The cleanliness obsession strikes in
sometimes and gives the victim the

Communications
Make 10 Per Cent Pay Bonus.
To the Editor:
There are no doubt quite a num
ber of persona even aside from the
veterans who will not agree with
you in your panegerlo "Thank Ood
for Al Smith," dealing with Smith's
article In the Saturday Evening Post.
The undersigned Is one of them.
Either Smith Is childishly Inno
cent of economic facts or he Is speak
ing as a politician, 1. e., saying one
thing and thinking another. He says
that the payment of the bonus would
have to be paid by 120.000.000 peo
pleall of the people of the U. S. A.
But It does not follow. These mil
lions may be divided Into three
classes, viz: Those who have ob
tained the hog's share of the social
Income too much for their good:
those who can maka both ends meet
and those who can not. Now the bur
den of the bonua need not be saddled
on the latter two classes, the lower
90 per cent, but placed where It
rightly belongs on the upper 10 per
cent. To do so would not wreck our
social system of "rugged Individual
ism." aa Hoover would have us be
lieve. On the contrary, it would tend
to oxygenate it. It would also tend
to offset the tendency (very marked
of late, thanks to Hoover) of the vete
ran's induction Into the ranka of the
radicals, where they perhaps, histori
cally, economically, psychologically
and logically belong, as It Is main
tained by some radicals.
Of course, the upper ten are too
Influential and shortsighted to per
mit any auch "blundering." but this
fact has no bearing on the case. What
is questioned, however. Is the rotten
logic In a high place. The under
signed's position should not be con
strued as favoring the bonus payment
either. Unemployment Insurance, old
age pensions, etc., are better revival
measures, in his opinion, since eco
nomic law decrees that 95 per cent of
those who reach the ae of 63 must
theoretically and do practically be
come dependents. He believes, rightly
or wrongly, that It Is as necejwary to
pay wagea to workers when there la no
work as It Is to pay firemen wasea
when there la no fire or policemen
when they are not cracking heads.
But the question naturally follows:
Where Is all this money to come from?
That Is easy. But since the editor
will not read over 300-word communi
cations, much less print tbm. the
answer from the undersigned must
hang fire.

la maliciously false. The same story
has now bees partially retracted bv

my replies to appear In Its columns.
We think you should likewise RE
TRACT the falsehood, or pass the
buck to E. B. Kelly and Tom En
right, aa the Tidings haa done. It
the responsibility for the story rest
with the officers of the bar associa
tion. I fail to find In the code of ethics,
or the Code of Oregon, where either
a lawyer or a citlsen la required to
either sign newspaper expressions of
confidence, or to utter expressions of
confidence In Judgea, or newspsper
reporters.
I have always conducted myeelf
respectfully and courteously to both
lawyers and judges, and have never
been approached or asked to express
my confidence or lack of confidence
In Judge Norton, and had no knowl
edge that such an expression was
required or expected of me. I have
found It desirable by my clients In
In eight cases to file affidavits re
sulting in other assignments to the
trial of said causes. I have violated
no law or ethics thereby. Neither
you nor the Tidings, nor ex-offlcers
of a local bar association, bring dis
credit upon me by falsehoods. I ex
pect to exercise my official rights as
an attorney and a citizen, and 1 ex
pect to continue to extend to all cir
cuit or supreme Judges the highest
courtesy and respect within my
power.
To that end I am endeavoring to
attend the state bar meet at Sea
side thla week, and especially for the
purpose of carrying out my policy
above stated. Now Just be fair.
Brother Ruhl, and our futuro con
tacts will not be Imposed upon the
public. Yours truly.
