The Last Word Almost YES, the campaign is about over. Franklin Roosevelt'i plea for being placed in the White House in place of President Hoover, reduced to simple terms, is this : "President Hoover has made a failure of the Job, I will make a success of It I" That's an easy thing to say. It is the plea of every man who wants another man's job. But let's look into it a moment. HAS PEESIDENT HOOVER MADE A PAILTJEE OF AD MINISTERING THE AFFAIRS OF THIS COUNTRY, DUR ING THIS WORLD-WIDE ECONOMIC CATACLYSM t Let's cdme down to cases, not somewhere else, BUT RIGHT HERE IN THE VALLEY. NO ONE denies President Hoover was personally responsible for the Reconstruction Finance corporation. What does that mean to Southern Oregon f We believe our information is correct when we say, it means that approxi mately $200,000 perhaps more, will be available in this part of the state, to give financial relief to' farmers and ranchers, without involving material loss to the government, not next year or the year after, but THIS YEAR. PRESIDENT HOOVER has also been responsible for the home loan measure, which will be in operation, here in Jackson County, and throughout the state, as soon as a state enabling act is passed, and may even be available before, under ITS EMERGENCY PROVISIONS. Hundreds of thousands of dollars will be available in this state, and Southern Oregon will gets its proportion. The important feature of this bill, which was retained in spite of the opposition of the big banks and insurance com panies, is this ! It virtually FORCES this cash to be distributed, NOT for the benefit of banks, insurance companies, or building and loan associations, but for the BENEFIT OF THE INDIVIDUAL HOME OWNER, if these big companies WON'T do the job, then the people are urged to form companies of their own, and do it for themselves. What does this meant. It means that for every local home owner who can't meet his mortgage, and is in danger of losing his home, every local home owner who wants a new loan and can't get it; and every local home owner who wants to make repairs on his home, or enlarge it but has been unable to do so, is going to be helped if President Hoover is retained and allowed to do what he wants to do. Is that making a failure of running this government, dur ing the greatest depression in all history f Had Franklin Roosevelt been in the White House would he have done any better t Would he have done as wellt What WILL he do about these two measures, about the protective tariff, about a multitude of important economic and industrial problems, will he junk the Hoover program and replaoe it with a program of his own J In view of the fact he brands his opponent a failure, he must consider his program a failure, so isn't it' fair to assume he WILL NOT continue the policies of one or the provisions of the otherl - . Do you want thatf Think it over. If a man eomes to you for a job and says "Kick the man you have out and put me in his place he's no good, I am a wonder." Do you take his word for itt No, you look him over, you size him up, you go back into his record. Then you look the man you HAVE over, you carefully con sider under what conditions he has worked, whether all in all he has been satisfactory or hasn't been. ' Why not use as much thought and discretion in selecting your President as in selecting your office boy or your hired mant And then for good measure read what former President Coolidge had to say the other day to the people of this country: "If initiating proposals and seouring their adoption constitute leadership President Hoover is a leader. If sav ing the country from one impending disaster after another provides any basis for gratitude President Hoover ,1s en titled to gratitude. I present my opinion of him to my fel low countrymen for such consideration as they may believe it merits. The mora this campaign has progressed, the . more I am convinced that the publlo welfare requires that . he should be re-elected." That's all. The campaign is over. It's now up to you and YOU ONLY Mr. and Mrs. Voter. Does the Tariff Mean Any thing To Jackson County? WITH the campaign practically over, one thing is certain, the Republican party stands for the protective tarilf, the Dcmocratio party opposes it. Certainly those who believe in a protective tariff, those who believe that with the depreciation of foreign currencies, and consequent lowering of foreign production costs, such a tariff is more vital to the material welfare of this country than ever before, would be foolish to trust the fate of such protection to a party traditionally opposed to it, under a leader, who has been on both sides of this question, at least ten times, during a few months' campaign. THE tariff is a dry and complicated subjeot. Few voters in Jackson County, think, that it has any vitality here in Southern Oregon. What difference does it make anyway 1 "BUT IT DOES MAKE A DIFFERENCE. A very real and practical difference. A difference in our payrolls, and pros perity, a difference in dollars and cents." ""PAKE the Owen-Oregon company merely as ONE example. Thanks to the present $4 tariff applied on Canadian lum ber, this company wag able to resume operations, under a re duced force it is true, 'but it being supplied to nearly 200 men, which means weekly pay roll check for approximately 200 families or sustenance for six or eight hundred people. Without this protection, undoubtedly this local mill would have to close down. ISN'T THAT SOMETHING t Under present conditions, does anyone in Southern Oregon winh to vote AGAINST such a payroll! Yet voting for a party that is opposed to that pro- was able to resume.

In n earlier tic w explained how the ejection, of the digesting food (chyme) from the tomacb Into the duodenum bring about a spurt of bile from the gall-bladder and blle-paesagea In to the duoden um, where It mixes with the chyme and aids the further di gestion of fats particularly and promotes the on ward propulsion, of the digesting food mass. We fur ther explained that fats In the diet produce more active ejection of bile or "drainage" of the gall-bladder and bile passages than other food mater ials, and accordingly certain foods are especially beneficial where "non surgical biliary drainage" seems de sirable. These foods are yolk of egg, cream, brains, animal fats, butter. olive oil or other palatable oils. But tt happens that the foods men tioned are rich In a fat-like substance called cholesterol or cholestcrln which enters Into the formation or compost tlon of most gall-stones, and for this reason some physicians believe It might be well to restrict or exclude these foods from the diet of a pa tient who has some low-grade chron- lc gall-bladder trouble but, as yet, no signs of actual gallstone formation. Besides the fats mentioned, these Items contain considerable cholester ol: liver, peas, beans, wheat. Speaking of olive oil or other edible vegetable oils, I am reminded of the great gallstone cure hoax. Haven't had many .Inquiries about It lately, but prior to the exposure of some humbug's wonderful stomach rem edy" Z received Inquiries about one or another of the fake gallstone rem edies of that class dally. When a healthy parson t&k6 a large amount of any animal or vege table fat or oil, In the process of di gestion the oil is converted Into a kind of soap, particularly to combine with the oil. The soap. Is an excess of It Is produced, forms In lumps. Of course the soap Is laxative. So there you have the complete explanation of tectum, and voting against President Hoover, who is respon sible for it, means just that. . WHAT has this same protection done for this state, where as everyone knows the lumber industry is the very cor ner stone of state prosperity?" We take our figures not from a Republican newspaper, but from a paper bitterly opposing President Hoover, the Medford Daily. News of October 20, 1932: "Influenced by the recent tariff applied against Canadian lumber, Canadian exports to this country In September, 1032, were fiO, 000.000 less than In September, 1931. In three months since the tariff be came effective, shipments from Canada aggregated 30.109,000 feet, as compared to 170,854,000 during the same period ft year ago. that elimination from the TT. S. market Is equivalent to a gain of 240,000 DAYS' LABOR In American logging camps and mills during the pe riod." From such a source that statement can hardly be dismissed as merely Republican propaganda. It isn't propaganda,, It is the truth a matter of record, a matter of vital, non-partisan fact -finding, ff'T'WO HUNDERD AND FORTY THOUSAND days of gain- ful labor!" Isn't that SOMETHING, in this dark hour of unemployment and economic stagnation? DOESN'T that mean something, not only to the Pacific Northwest, but to every citizen of Medford and Jackson County! "Wouldn't the removal or tha reduction of that tariff prote3tion, make condi tions HERE, worse instead of better? Think it over Mr. Voter, think it over Mr. Business Man, think it over Mr. Worker, before you enter the ballot box, antj take a life-sized swat at the party and the party leader, re sponsible for it "We get just what we vote for." IE we vote against the party that has given us a payroll, we have no one "but our selves to blame, if we lose that payroll. . A Correction PERSONAL INCOME TAX LAW AMENDMENT BILL Purpose: To further reduce property taxes by advancing the tax rates on net persons! Income Is excess of $5,000.00 from B to a minimum of 8 per cent; substituting an exemption from the total tax of $10.00 ' iur a single person, 120.00 for married person, head of s family, or husband and wife, and 14.00 for each dependent, instead of ths present Income exemptions of S1.500.0O, S2.500.00 and $400.00, re spectively; and amending the provisions of the law so as to apply ths sntlrs Income of residents from personal service. IN OUR recommendations to voters on the ballot measures we Interpreted the above to mean that exemptions were to be 'reduced from $1500, $2500 and $400 to $10, $20 and $4, which we declared were too drastice and one of our reasons for oppos ing an increase in the present income tax. Since then our attention has been called to the fact that these $10, $20 aad $4 items are not exemptions on incomes, but really deductions from the total tax. In fairness to the proponents of the measure we are glad to make this correction. The exemptions instead of being re duced from $1500, $2500 an $400, to $10, $20 and $4, would be reduced from $1500, $2500 and $400 to approximately $1000, for a single person; $1500 for a married person, and between $250 and $300 for a dependent. This, we admit, makes the bill much less objectionable, than we supposed it to be, but it does not entirely remove our ob jections to Buch a drastiee increase in the state income tax at the present time.

His financial Interest In these In dustries which form the real basic wealth of Jackson county, and his Intimate knowledge of the difficulties under which theso Industries are la boring at the present time make him keenly alive to any opportunity to better the condition of the farmers, dairy men and orchard lats of this district. His standing In the last seaslon of the legislature was very high. His Important committee as signments, especially on taxation and agriculture, put him In a position to be of great service to this district. As a result of the tax committee's efforts on tax reforms It was pos sible this year to eliminate entirely any tax on real property for state purposes. Mr. Days re-election will Insure to the people of Jackson county ef ficient and aggressive representation In the next session of the state legis lature. G.'O. Chapman, in the Oregon Voter says: "A lean, wiry legislator who persists till he gets his work done, such Is Earl B. Day, Sams valley rancher, who Is running for re-election as Jackson county representative. Day was chairman of the reappor tionment committee and produced a measure that was non-polltlcal while retaining a balanced representation to the counties outside of Multno mah. It was the first time In Ore gon's legislative history that a non polltlcal reapportionment was enact ed, and Day's painstaking effort Is what put It through. "He got this result along with leg islation sought by his county.

E CITY'S MILK LI In view of the fact that this city's milk ordinance has been often men tioned In connection with the pres ent campaign for mayor of Medford, the committee handling the campaign for E. M. Wilson feels that pertinent facts relative to this Important ordi nance should be made public. Mr. Wilson, according to his supporters, Is the only candidate for the office of mayor who has pledged himself to the strict enforcement of the milk ordinance. Those who favor the present ordi nance Insist that the expense of lt maintenance Is borne by the dis tributors and no part of Its cost of supervision Is passed on to the tax payer and consumer. It Is also em phasized that the ordinance does not prohibit any type of milk being de livered and sold within the city limits, but It does compel the producers and distributors to label It strictly In ac cordance with its particular grade, thereby creating no monopoly. In other words, the milk ordinance ad vocates maintain that milk la sold under its tiue banner and the con sumer enjoys the protection he has a right to expect. The Medford milk ordinance safe guards milk under a nation-wide rec ognized standard milk ordinance as sponsored by the United States pub lic health service. For eight years this method of regulating milk haa met with such favor that 20 states and over 500 municipalities, eight of them being In Oregon, have adopted this ordinance. None has ever re voked It, according to records. Those who are advancing the re election of Mayor Wilson upon his firm stand on milk regulation Insist that pure health Is equally as es sential to this community as pure water. The city has expended a mil lion dollars to assure a pure water supply and It would be folly to dis card tho present high Important ordi nance and the health-protection It affords. In their opinion. 1931 session was looked to as a com mlttes and floor leader of notable ability." AND y i 1 IB,.WiWsjsjtM i !r"r?yTi E.
