After a visit to Eugene, the Impres
sion Is gained that banning of autos
from the University of Oregon cam
pus, also OSC, Is the most terrible
thing In the way of an atrocity, since
the Turks got aftr the starving
Armenians. Saturday we actually
saw a Medford student walking, and
expecting every step to be his last
one.
The high tax howl, which has been
overworked the past two years, In
propoganda circles, Is now being em
ployed as a means to thwart the re
routing of the Paclflo highway over
the Sleklyous. The project would
benefit valley labor, valley business,
and valley industries. Not one dime
of money raised by local taxation
would be used, the M65.000 being
federal funds. Labor and buslneas
would be paid In legal tender, not
coonsklns, lOU's, and loud promises.
This would be a step towards the re
turn of Prosperity, and a happier
people, many of whom have been
looking for work since they got their
electrlo lights for nothing. The Sis
klyous project is the sole bright ray
In the winter prospects, and the ob
ject Is to render It unconscious, with
a political harangue on the taxes, and
the fear they will mount. No other i
county In the state la so reluctant
about helping Itself. Maybe the civic
back Is sprouting moss again.
Three expert coagulated In this
office yesterday, and only an open
door and a kindly Providence saved
your eorr. from being ruthlessly taken
apart and readjusted.
What does a hunter, who shoots a
white horse for a deer, think abouul
during the closed season on deer?
An upstate sports editor wants to
know why It required three hours to
play the Stanford-OSO. game last
Saturday. Well, from this distance It
looks like the OSC. players did not
get up fast enough, and, maybe the
Stanford coach was striving for a
victory, Instead of a tie score.
Attys Port Neff and Judge Kelly
plan to drag their vocal organs across
the county, In behalf of the Demo
cratic party, and a number of Repub
lican orators will sally forth to save
America, before October Is deceased.
The city, county, and nalton are
now In the midst of the campaign
slogan business, and, believe It or
not, they are purposely Intended not
to mean anything. Take the Demo
cratic slogan. "Hawl Hawl Hawl" No
body knows whether they are laugh
ing at themselves, or the Socialist
candidate, or the Republican victor.
And, what does It mean, and what
does It tell? Take the homegrown
slogan: "Keep Your Hand on Your
Pocketbook. and Your Mind On Your
Tax bills." Why not save wind and nay,
"Safety First, and Taxes Never." A
much more fitting war cry would be:
Foundations Shaken and Salvation
Pres. Getting back to the pocket,
book angle of the slogans, why not
chirp: Open Up the Wallet, Before
the Moths Chew Their Wsy Out, or,
LEND MS YOUR EARS, and 13. The
!otns lack alncerlty. They don't
mean what they say, any more than
tha candidate In the country, who
sires up his audience, and noting the
women, says, "I'm glad to see so
many babies here tonight." Deep In
his heart he wishes the babies had
whiskers and could vote. Understand,
no candidate would deceive you. He
likes babies, and flrepliM.es, and the
pure country air, but most of all,
your vote. No slogan la worth the
lung power required to spout It. Our
own slogan, "Leave Hell Enough
Alone," does not coma under this
clssslflcstlon, and la too good to be
true, or followed, or used. The Demo
cratic party gave the creator of the
"Hawl Hawl Hawl" a $1000 prise.
They wouldn t tun the government
that way.
Good Music Is
"Music hath charms to soothe tha savage breast.
To soften rocks, or bend a knotted oak."
IT IS from this standpoint that the present drive for ruember-
ship in the Civic Music association, becomes, a movement
of real local importance.
When discouraging economic conditions have released so
many "savage" instincts, when the road of life is strewn with so
many "rocks" of adversity and lined with so many "knotted
oaks" of fear and doubt; the charms and subtle curative powers
of good music are needed in a community more than ever be
fore. There is no need this year, as there was last, in trying to
Bell the idea to the people of this city. The members know by
experience, the high quality of the music, the diversity and
stimulation of the programs offered.
The only question for the individual is "can I afford it!"
For those who enjoyed the concert series last year however, the
question, better expresses the true situation, when phrased as
follows!
. "CAN I AFFORD TO MISS IT."
The benefits of good music, to those who love music are
real benefits, benefits to body and to mind.' Music, perhaps
better than anything else answers Milton's prayer:
"What la dark In ma Illumine,
What Is low, raise and support I"
And in that answer, the poor struggling humans, particularly
in this "winter of our discontents go forth strengthened and
inspired, better able to bear their burdens manfully; better able
not only to think better things, but to do better work.
So we are glad to endorse the drive of the Civic Music
association this year as we did last. Instead of regarding it as
of less importance, we regard it as more.
The Local Movie Tangle
THE Mail Tribune hopes some satisfactory arrangement may
" be reached whereby the Holly theatre can be kept open.
This is an independent theatre, locally owned and operated,
and a genuine asset to the town. To have it closed would give
the town a black eye.
The Holly theatre makes certain publio charges against Fox
West, Coast, of unfair competition, such as buying up all the
high grade pictures, o independent theatres can get none,
buying more than they can posib!y use, merely to crush out
competition.
The Fox-West Coast representative flatly denies the truth
of this charge, and maintains they are naturally buying up the
best pictures they can find, but they will USE THEM ALL, not
to crush competition, but to raise the standard of their product.
We refuse to take sides in a controversy of this sort. It is a
matter for tho courts not the newspapers to decide.
BUT WE DO FEEL, that Medford is a big enough place, and
a good enough movie town, to support two FIRST CLASS
theatres, and we believe the people feel the same way about it.
We suggest to the two leading movie theatres, that instead
of fighting each other, they get together, and perfect an arrange
ment looking toward this end, ... in tho long run, a better
arrangement not only for the town, but in OUR CONSIDERED
JUDGMENT for BOTH parties concerned I
A Great Contrast
TTHERE is certainly no question of President Hoover's cour-
age. In speaking in Iowa, he is invading the enemy's
territory, the most hostile section in the entire farm belt at the
present time.
And he is going to speak to the farmers, on the farm prob
lem. If that does not take intestinal fortitude, then what does!
'T'lIE progress of the president's special across the country,
certainly presents a marked contrast to the Franklin
Roosevelt train.
The president looks "sad, worn but determined." He doesn't
bounce about, shake his hands above his head, in true "movie
star" style, cheerily chirp about what he is going to do after
he enters the White House, on March 4th next.
He greets the crowds with quiet friendliness and sincerity,
Mrs. Hoovor by his side. But to ories for. a speech he shakes
his head. He is no professional orator, no rear platform rabble
rouse. He merely says:
"WE ARE DOING WHAT THE GOVERNMENT CAN,
AND SHOULD DO, TO HELP ITS PEOPLE." That's all.
DUT when all is said and done, we wonder if that isn't a
GOOD DEAL. We wonder if the American people along
the right of way, from Washington to Des Moines, when they
return to their homes, won't remember those quiet, simple
words !
"We are doing what the government can, and should do to
to help its people."
No boasting or bravado. No political clap trap. No glitter
ing generalities. No gilded promises. No claim the government
is doing anything more than it should do at such a oritical time.
But, every day, in every way, it is doing its very best to help
the people of this country.
IN spite of the rural parades of protest, engineered by the op
posing politicians; in spite of the hoots and cat calls, of
hired provocateurs; we wonder if the complete truth, and deep
spiritual significance of those words, won't sink into the hearts
and minds of the people of this country, before this campaign
is over.
We have an idea they will. We have an idea the rank and
file, the plain men and women of this country, not partisans
for either side, but those who determine elections nevertheless,
will come to appreciate tho real worth, the genuine ability, and
the deep, unswerving and unselfish devotion of the man who
has occupied the White House the past three years. The man
who has done all he could do to help the people of his country
during a most critical period, and who if re-elected, and with
the benefit of that experience, will do his very best for four
years more.

Japan Asks What About

Where Gold Slumbers,
Copyright King Features Synd., Inc.
Anybody who does not know
already will soon know how
much the League of Nations
amounts to when it comes to
dealing with a nation of im
portance. The league solemnly passes
judgment on Japan's course in
MHnchukuo. Japan is condemn
ed, VERT WICKED, INDEED.
Newspapers in Tokio call the
decision an insult, and Japan
announces that she will pro
ceed in Manchukuo as hitherto,
paying no attention to the
league. She will decide later
whether or not to resign from
the league.
What will the league do
about it! Exactly nothing,
as
Interesting things are seen looking
out of a window. The Irish lady In
Eva Gore Booth'a poem preferred the
Uttle Irish road that passed her house
to "the grand road from the moun
tain." with "traffic on It, and many
a horse and cart."
The East River flows aa the tide
rites and falls, Just below the window
Wiere this Is written. There is much
trafflo on that, and occasionally
things more exciting than tug boats,
passenger boat and hydroplanes. You
see a ship landing a cargo of boxes
neatly wrapped In brown paper. That
means "bootleg."
You see mild excitement at the
edge of the wharf, a policeman run
ning. Some man "sleeping It off"
on the strlngplece, Just above the
water, has fallen over.
YeaKsrday the event of the day was
unusual. On the Manhattan bridge,
a little to the left where heavy sus
pension cables run at a sharp curve
from the floor of the bridge to the
top of tall towers, George Kennedy,
70 years old, undoubtedly demented,
could be seen walking steadily up one
of the cablea. He reached the top,
looked around. His plan was to Jump
down 300 feet and go to another
world of other rivers. While he
thought about It, two policemen, as
swiftly as possible, were scrambling
up the cable after him. They could
be aeen presently, arguing with him
aa he stood at the edge. They all
came down together. Hundreds gath
ered, trafflo waa blocked.
The Grand Old Party, listening
while women make speeches for the
Republican ticket "on the Mr." Cam
palgn managers, fearing that women
will make speeches too long, Implore
them to be "brief and funny."
Brevity la good, humor on the air
Is not so good. Speakers should re
member that their "unseen audience"
la 90 per cent "broke" and talk ac
cordingly. If you lack a Job you want serious
talk, not Jokes.
President Hoover knows that. Be
fore he was elected or nominated
Secretary of Commerce, he paid much
attention to radio. He told this
writer:
"Those that listen do not care for
Jokes, and, above all, they object to
anything In tht way of unpleasant
personalities or abuse."
In singing you may do aa you like,
but In talking you are expected to
stick to facts and make tt short.
Here and there one man "flays"
a candidate on the other side of the
fence. Another man "flays" and
"klnft alive" the candidate of the
first speaker.
And nobody pays much attention.
The average citizen would like to
be told how somebody, anybody, pro
perns to start the wheels turning and
the payrolls Increasing. Nobody
seems to have definite plans about
that, and "flaying" your opponent Is
not particularly consoling, no matter
who does It.
The vault In which the Bank of
France keeps the French billions of
dollars In gold coin and gold bars,
Including much American coin. Is a
real vault.
The gold Is far down In the earth,
surrounded with fifteen feet of steel

lead down to It, The vault door la

officially closed, a little electric loco
motive moves a turret of solid steel
fifteen feet wide which Is locked to
the walls In front of the door, clos

THE BUSINESS OF BREAKING DOWN FLESH.
The Jolly, solid, wholesome looking
young woman who conducts a suc
cessful beauty establishment came
ataggering from
a treatment room,
panting and per
spiring and fell
limply Into a
aeat. From the
room had come
for twenty min
utes a n u n d a as
though a couple
-of tough girls
were having a
lively bout with
six-ounce gloves. .
My dear, what has happened?" in
quired an anxious aunt.
"Nothing, nothing. panted the pro
prietress, sagging wearily down upon
her back. "Just a reduction treat
ment."
"But, why under the sun? You
don't need to reduce, child I"
"No, I know It, but I have to. These
fat dames must have their massage
and pounding to break down the
flesh, you know."
Now that the diet fad la on the
wane, a good many of our parasitic
class are going in for reduction by
physical methods massage, baths,
electricity, pretty lights, etc., these
attentions being guaranteed to break
down the superfluous flesh or tat or
to melt or soften It somehow so that
it can be readily "absorbed" or caused
to vanish.
A lot of people In the moronic grade
believe that some kind of mysterious
soap or salts or other ingredient
of a bath will reduce or aid in the
reduction of superfluous fat or flesh.
To the millions of morons in this
country the beauty experts unblush
lngly promise either reduction or "de
velopment" of any part of the body
to which the simple minded dupe
will apply this or that salve or simi
lar concoction.
If this sort of humbug were perpe
trated only or mainly upon the lazy
parasites I'd applaud the game, for I
like to see such people outsmarted
by their Intellectual superiors. But,
alas, the racket derives its support
largely from poor Uttle factory hands,
shop girls, stenographers and sales
girls. These have to work hard for
their wages, and It seems a scandal
that the fake reduction business is
sanctioned here In Dollarland.

burled the money, paid largely In five
franc silver pieces, In the ground at
Spandau. One good bomb would
have blown the whole thing Into the
air.
For France tt Is gold, not silver,
and If anything could be bomb-proof
that gold vault Is bomb-proof. And,
of course, If Paris were taken, engi
neers would soon find a way to get
the gold, but the vault has much
psychological VfUue. It makes the
French feel rich, and they are rich.

Jenkins' Comment
(Continued from Page One )
SO DON'T despair of the future.
Don't listen to the croakers who
tell us that our best days In this
country are past, and that we shall
never again see times aa good as they
have been. Remember that the croak
ers were saying this same thing away
back in the eighties, telling people
that Industry and progress had gone
aa far as was possible.
In the eighties, we know now, In
dustry and progress hadn't even made
a good start. This writer, who Is a
constitutional optimist, and whose

A MAN is as old or as young
as his organs.
At fitly, you can be in your
orimt.
Whv pi nlonij with "fairly Rnod
health when you might he enjoying
vigor you haven't felt for years?
There's a simple little thing any
one can do to keep the vital organs
stimulated, and feel lit all the time.
People don't realize how sluggish
they've grown until they've tried it.
The stimulant that will stir your
system to new life is Dr. Caldwell's
syrup pepsin. It will make a most
amazing difference in many ways.
This famous doctor's prescription
is a delicious syrup made with fresh
herbs, active senna, and pure pep
sin. It starts its good work with the
cal fact that no massage or pound
ing, manual or mechanical, no rub
bing or vibrating or compression or
other manipulation or passive move
ment will appreciably reduce or in
crease the size or development of any
part of the human body. No fear
that this will be contradicted, because
It Is an absolute fact. (
I can assure every Interested per
son that any loss of weight produced
by any bath or any method of apply
ing heat Is merely the weight of the
water evaporated In the sweat and
by the lungs if the treatment pro
duces panting. This loss is Invariably
made good within 36 hours by the
intake of water tn food or drink.
Finally I can state without fear of
competent contradiction, that the
only means by which satisfactory and
healthful reduction can be procured
In any case Is rational dieting, with
daily exercise suitable to the Indi
vidual condition, and, in certain cases
special medication by the physician
to correct glandular or 'internal se
cretion deficiencies. -
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
Typhoid Carrier,
Can a person be a typhoid carrier
If he has never had it? If so, how
does he get the germs? Is there any
treatment for a carrier that will get
rid of the germs J. E. B.
Answer No. In some cases the
original attack of typhoid fever bad
been wrongly diagnosed as "malaria."
"stomach fever" or Intestinal iiu.
Cholecytectomy (removal of gall blad
der) has cured the carrier state in
48 out of a fccrtcs of 60 cases.
That Eyes.

W. K.
Answer Unless there Is some spe
cific condition for which ydur physic
ian prescrlbea drops or eye wash, it
is better not to. bathe the eyes. If
you insist on bathing your eyes, a
heaping teaspoon ful of common salt
in a pint of boiled water Is the least
Irritating eye wash. Use It lukewarm.
Tea and Coffee.
Does the drinking of tea or coffee
to relieve a tired or run-down feeling
constitute a dangerous habit? F.H.L.
Answer Your question is too in
definite. The moderate consumption
of tea and coffee by adults Is gener
ally wholesome and healthful.

to drive away the dullness and

the system of that slow poison that
saps your strength. It's Letter than

habit-forming laxatives you can
take it freely or give it to any child.
And it isn't expensive.
Get some syrup pepsin today, and

Communications
La Follette's Defeat
To the dltor:
It Is getting habitual the crash
leg of your columns. Even at the
risk of seeming presumptuous, the
undersigned wishes to amplty your
excellent editorial on the losing out
of the "radical" Governor La Folletw
of Wisconsin In the recent election.
Splendid as was your editorial
dealing with the situation, high
lights were omitted, whlGh, In the
opinion of the undersigned, makes It
a iisU-truth. They are (1) The
heavy swing of the Reps- to the
Dems.; from 17.000 In '30 to 135,000
In '32. This In Itself explains much.
(3) The 310,000 fsmltes In dire want.
They will require B20.000.000 for the
coming year, a sum not sufficient for
them to live on but too much to die
on. La Follette would, It the event
of his re-election pry this money
out of the Income of the upper ten
per cent. Accordingly, (3) some
thing had to be done.
Something was done. About
1350,000 was spent by Mr. Kohler
and his well-to-do associates In the
name of everything that Is Amerl
csn and holy; and the law still holds.
I. a. the law that holds that that
party succeeds which spends the
most money. (Buchanan Is a nota
ble exception.)
La Follette lost out. Kohler's
workers were efficient and a finer
bunch of political pirates never scut
tled a ship. (5) All Is fair In love,
war and politics. Mud oozed every
where where It could do the most
good. "Radicalism" was played up
plenty. It seeped Into the thick
skulls of the voters like water Into
a rat bole. "Radicalism was driving
capital out of the state" was shout
ed everywhere. The case of the Park
er Pen company building In Canada
to handle their export trade, was
cited as an Illustration. The presi
dent of the company, Parker, denied
that radicalism had anything to do
with the move, but the tariff ex
plained everything.
La Follette, no doubt, considers
himself lucky In his defeat. Since
office-holders are held responsible
for economic situations, the king
pins will sure have the sympathy of
R. HECNER.

LOCAL PAPERS
NOW SUPPORT
PHIPPS
That the entry of independent candi
dates for county judge has turned the tide
to William E. Phipps is now evident.
Note what independent newspapers say:
"This paper was among the supporters of Mr.
Fehl last spring. We have never supported the
Medford 'gang' and never will. We lived in Med
ford many years and have had first-hand
knowledge of how these men have worked. We
decided some time ago that if we could no longer
support Fehl we would turn to a man who has
long been known as a strong opponent of 'gang
rule.' a man who started an opposition newspaper
in Medford for the sole reason that it was at that
time impossible to get anything published which
disagreed wilh the wishes'of the 'gang.' We mean
William E. Phipps. Here is a man of mature
years, who has the proper legal training necessary
to handle Hie probate and juvenile court matters
and who thoroughly understands the needs of
Jackson county. The Medford political machine
does not want him. They saw the handwriting on
the wall in regard to Fehl. The v saw that he was
losmsr support on account of tlie recall agitation
and feared it meant Phipps for judge. So thev
hastily thrust Mr. Gates into the race to save their
gravy train.' " Central Point American.
We believe, for the office of countv judge of
Jackson county, there is but one man fitted for
Wi-Jins 1,ialifiprl himself in the primaries.
N llliam E. Phipps. who made a creditable race in
the spring, came by the nomination fairlv and
without mudslin-ring nnd is the logical choice.
Others have filed for the position as independents,
but they should not be considered bv fair voters
because they have attempted to enter the race in
the last lap without taking their chances in the
primaries. And, as the American people are noted
as .'lean sportsmen the worl, over, we believe that
more and more voters will see the advantages of
electing Phipps county pulcc and shv awav from
