Ki'GE TE2T MEDFORD IfKTri TREBUOT, MEDFORD. OREGON, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1932. CANDIDATES FOE J Public Not to Be Permitted to Lose Sight of Fact New Congress to Be Elected In November Balloting and By Brron Trie (Associated Press.) Ifo matter how much dust may be raised by the presidential marathon. ttie public vUl not be permitted dur ing the next few t:r'J to loee sight of the fact that a new congress also la to be elected In November. The congressional campaign com mittees are preparing to bring out the atego guns. A lot of this activity, of course, la directed toward personal ends. For their own sakea, Individually, the Ins want very much to keep their govern ment meal tickets and their commit tee majorities, while for the same reasons the outs are eager to become ttie Ins. Beyond this, however, lies a na tional stake for each party. No one knows better than party managers ttiat- whoever Is elected president will be at a great disadvantage If he faces a hostile majority on Capitol Hill, It Is for this latter reason that the national organization will be devot ing Increasing attention from now on to the campaigns for senate house. Democrats Have Edge No one disputes that so far as the senate la concerned, the democrats start with an advantage born of natural circumstances. Only one-third of the senate la elected at a time. The total mem berahlp Is evenly balanced now be tween the parties, and of the thirty odd seats to be filled this year, about half likewise Is held by each party. But It so happens that most of the democratic seats are In normally democratic territory, while most of the republican seats are In disputed territory. To hold what they have, the demo Grata need to carry Alabama, Loulsl ana, Arkansaa, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Oklahoma, Kentucky, Missouri, Mary land, Arizona, Ohio, Kansas and New York. The republicans, to hold what they have, must carry Connecticut, Colorado, Wisconsin, Iowa, Vermont, Pennsylvania Illinois, Washington, New Hampshire, South Dakota, North Dakota, New Jersey, Nevada, Califor nia, Utah, Oregon, Idaho and Indi ana. Only a small percentage of the democratic seats la contested seri ously, while virtually all the republl--. cans seats are under determined at tack. a. O. V. Trio In Battles Reports which come over the pollt Itcal grapevine, for Instance, agree that as distinguished a republican trio as Senators Moses, Watson and Bmoot Is In the midst of campaigns as hard-fought as any In their whole Uvea. When democratic claims are made gainst auch old-timers as these, the republican organization takea note and sends out for reinforcements. Bitter Campaign Ahead In the house, the entire member ship of 435 Is up for election. The demoorats, In the majority In the present houss, have made a great talklng-polnt of the fact that they already hsve picked up two house seats In normally republican Maine. But the republicans are conceding nothing. . This all means that a congrea slonal campaign of more than ordi nary ferocity Is In the making and soon will be eweeplng every debatnble precinct.

Nandle's Club Breskfaats ah best f own loo to too, By HOWARD W. BLAKESLEE. (Asoclsted Press Science Editor) PITTSBURG, Pa. (AP) A new bandit gas that makea Ita victims sesslck has been developed here. It's name la dlphenylamlnechlora- slne. which means that It Is composed of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, chlo rine and a trace of arsenic. It Is said to be as harmless as tesr gas, but capsble of taking the resistance out of a criminal for about 15 times as long. The actual contenta of the "sesslck bomb" Is not a gas, but a solid, yel low-green, faintly sromatlo. Upon bursting, contact with the atmosphere creates a canary-yellow smoks. The sniffer of this sneezes, coughs, bS' comes nauseated and goes through other experiences of seaslcknes. J. W. Long, president of ths Fed eral Laboratories, which developed the bomb, aays: "For quite a time following the world war, crlmlnala had the -upper hand In using vsrlous Instruments of warfare that had been uncovered dur ing the conflict. Science took up the battle against them with the Idea that It should be made as bloodless and harmleea as possible. "Tear gas was successful In numer- ous Instances. Now another forward etep has been taken In making a new high-speed grenade that holds four times ss much gas aa those used here, tofore. and Is but slightly larger. It la timed to explode almost Instantty, overcoming- a fault of early gas gre nades which sometimes were boom erangs when they were returned quickly by bandits before having time to go off. "These high-powered speed gre nades also lend themselves to selective treatment of crime. If It Is Intended only to put the bandit out of com mission for 15 to 30 minutes, tear gas Is used, but If It Is necessary to ex tend the period of 'hors de combat' to hours, the sickening -gss csn be used, which causes nsusea and vomit ing for five to atx hours. Neither gas however, leaves any permanent In- Jury." : 4 REQUIRED IS WARNING A telegram mi received here today by Dwlght L. Fhlppa of the state forest offices, which stated that Gov ernor Julius L.

Ing this fall, j. H. Fuller, former sec retary of Ashland chamber of com merce, presented facts regarding ths educational altuatlon In the state and referred particularly to the Initiative measure on the bsllot for the com ing election. He said that "for years many 'doc tors' had been operating on the edu cational Institutions of the state and that one of the latest of these after succeeding In putting over on the state his theory of merging and con solidation, wss either dlssppolnted In the nurses selected to care for ths patient or did not feel that the fee for his services was sufficiently lsnte and so lends his name to another 'pre scription for the patient' of cutting orr the right arm of the educational body, taking the big toe out of each of ths feet of the pstlent. I.e., the Normal schools at Ashland and La Grande, and thus generally making the chap over Into a new fellow. "Dr. Hector Mcpherson, finding that many of the more noted 'doctors' dls a greed with him aa to the need of a aurglcal operation, desiring con firmation as to hie own diagnosis, writes an eminent authority In an other state. Dr. Joseph Schafer. head of the Historical Association of Wis consin and thoroughly acquainted with the educational problems of Ore gon for his honest opinion regarding the diagnosis and prescription the Zorn-McPherson bill and Dr. Schafer replies completely disagreeing with Dr. McPhereon." Reading from that part of the opin ion pertaining to Normal schools, Mr. Fuller showed the present normal school system hed been evolved after years of effort and study and that In the opinion of many experts, like Dr. Schafer, the plan of decentralized teacher training normal schools more nearly met the demsnds of the people In a large area like the atate of Ore gon than one school centered with all the other Institutions of educa tion in one section of the etate." S.P.Will Add Car For Football Trip A. S. Roeenbaum, district freight and passenger agent of the Southern Paclflo company, stated last night that If sufficient number of Medford people wished to Journey to Eugene by trsln to attend the Santa Clara Oregon football game, a special tour ist sleeper would be added to Friday night's train. The train, would leave Eugene for Medford Saturday at mid night, and arrive here at 8:40 Sat urday morning. CLAIM RAPPED Refuting the claims of Roger Ball of CorvaUis, who addressed US Kl wanla club here Monday and debat ed Ralph Bailey at the high school last night before a Urge and enthu siastic crowd on the subject of the Zorn-McPherson measure for merg- lng of the state schools of higher learning, a telegram was received to day by John A. Fuller from J, A. Churchill of Monmouth.. Ball In his address stated that the Oregon normal schools have been rated as 47th In the order of effi ciency. Churchill in his answer states: "Just talked with State Su perintendent Howard, who said the normal schools have never been rated by the United States bureau of edu cation In order of efficiency. That It has not been done by Oregon or any state or by any agency. The statement that Oregon rsnks 47th among the normal schools of the United States Is absolutely false snd anyone making such a statement should be made either to produce bis authority or be branded a 1 r." MOTHER AT THEATER VISITED BY STORK MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. 29. (AP) "Olve the little girl a great big hand" said Texas Gulnan once again. The crowd did, but the little girl only walled. .
