Twenty-Seventh Year MEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 1932. No. 199. JNE Comment on the Day's News BJ FRANK JENKINS. TBS tact seems to stand out of tie national election: The voters, bruised and eore from the buffetlngs of depression, and short of temper, as one l apt to be when he Is bruised ar.d sore, started out with a club on Tuesday morning, and whenever they found a head In office they cracked It. The thing they wanted was to get ss far away as possible from what has been. PEOPLE are saying on the streets, some of them In shocked tones: "Old you ever see such an election?" end to those questioners one Is sup ' posed to answer: " NEVER dldl" But we have. There was a some what similar landslide In 1930, when 'Harding defeated Cox by a monu mental vote. In the four years preceding, there bad been two years of war, one year of trembling on the verge of war and one year of the confusion that follows war. People were weary and sore and dis gusted, and then as now they voted to throw everybody out that was In. THAT Is what voters nearly always do when they don't like what has been going on. They always have. What Is more, they ALWAYS WILL. If government doesn't provide what people want, whether It Is posslbls to do so or not, people will change the government. ' T TERB. of course. Is the question 1 that Interests all of us most: 'What will be the effect of this up heaval on business, which In the past three months has appeared to be re viving?" It is probably too early as yet to judge, but plesse note that on Mon day, the day before election, the stock market went up. If you follow the little table of averages printed dally In this newspaper, you will note that the rise was 3.1 points over the figure for Saturday. Wednesday morning, which was the day after election, the market opened with a rather buoyant trend, slid off after the first hour or two, stead led later, and finally closed with an average loss of only one and a half points, or a little better than half a point above the Saturday average. That certainly doesn't reflect sny general consternation over the results of Tuesday's landslide. yHIfl writer, who 1s a persistent optimist, listened Wednesday to tlhls Interesting opinion by another optimist: "The Roosevelt vote. In. my Judg ment, was a protest vote. It came from that element of the population, now unfortunately large, which has Buffered severely from the depression. These people were sore, and probably quite angry over their misfortunes. "By the act of voting to throw all ths Ins out and putting outs in their places, this anger has been more " or less quenched Just, for example, as one feels better after going out en the back porch, when all upset, and kicking the cat. "If that is true, we are In a far better position to go forward quietly and normally than we were before." N the fifth day of March, as you ' have read in this newspaper, President Hoover will retire to prl J vate life. Arising late on the morning after election day, he comes out smiling to receive the correspondents. He had had the longest night's sleep, he said, In years. Responsibility, you see, had been lifted from his shoulders, and so hs could sleep. IT sounds nice too say: "Oh well, I'll bet he's glad to be out from under the load. It may sound nice, but It Isn't true. No man who Is worth while and President Hoover 18 eminently worth while is gt&d to be defeated. Her bert Hoover knew the feeling of heart soreness on the morning after elec tion day. Make no mistake as to that. But he will survive It. Really great m?n always do. N Oregon long rater as a prohlbl- tton state, the state prohibition law Is repealed by a decisive vote. People weren't toting for a drink. for they knew repeal of t?t state law won't bring it. They weren't voting to throw the whole burden of en forcement on the federal government. They were voting as a GESTURE. They wanted to make it plain that they are tired of prohibition as Is. All over the nation, this attitude was reflected. It stems to be evident that the skids are undsr prohMtipj, PRESIDENT-ELECT No Decision On Cabinet Or Other Aides Until January Is Word Many Rumors On Future Plans Laid ALBANY, N. T., Not. AP President-elect Roosevelt today was confined to his bed with a slight cold. Ha cancelled his week-end trip to Hyde Park to rest at the ex ecutive mansion. Mrs. Roosevelt ar rived today from New York. . Mr. Roosevelt said yesterday that he had contracted a cold last Tues day on his motor trip from Hyde Park to New York city, but he added he believed he had tossed It off. He rode In an open car that day and during most of the day was bare headed, while he waived his hat to the crowds In the villages along the way. Mr. Roosevelt, who conducted a most arduous campaign, said the day after his election: "I never felt bet ter," but added he was tired and expected to "catch up" with his sleep during the following week. Mr. Roosevelt awoke at mld-morn-lng after working late last night. He had his breakfast In bed. After breakfast h 1 s secretaries brought a portion of the morning flood of mall to him, which he looked over, dictating answers. Mrs. Roosevelt took the helm at the executive mansion today Imme diately upon her return from New York. It was the next "first lady" who chatted with several of the many visitors who arrived during the morning. The president-elect had served no tice today tthat not before early Jan uary will he begin gathering about him the men on whom he will rely, as president, to help him administer the nation's affairs. In a brief statement last night the president-elect aald no decisions regarding any federal appointments would be reached "for at least two months." In the meantime, he said, he will give his attention principally to the affairs of New York state. The governor took time yesterday to explore witfi newspaper men Into the speculative rumors which had arisen- about his- plans ' a!nce-the landslide Democratic vote which swept him to victory Tuesday. He Issued the statement about fed eral appointments to stifle specula tion about his selections for cabinet and other federal posts. Regarding suggestions that Mr. Roosevelt might visit the White House to discuss with the president matters relating to the future of the nation, Intimate associates of the president-elect said any initiative to ward such a meeting should properly come from the White House.' Mr. Roosevelt does not plan to stop at waamngton on his trip south. Wall St. Report Stork Sale Averages (Copyright, 1932, Standard Statistics Co.)

E. F. Expulsion WASHINGTON. Not. 11. (AP) Tribute to the unknown soldier echoed solemnly over the stillness of Arling ton nstlonal cemetery today, with the reading of a message from President Hoover, which said: The nation will linger today In Its annual tribute to reverend mem ory of the glorious youth who gave their lives to defend our heritage of liberty and will pay especial homage in the dedication of the completed tomb of the unknown soldier. "Its beauty Is a symbol of our na tional pride In their heroism; our gratitude for their supreme devotion." In a brief address, secretary Hurley stood before the new tomb paying honor to the soldiers and sailors of the war. As he rose to speak, some 70 or 80 of the audience rose and left, In accordance with previously announced Intentions as a protest against eviction of the bonus army from Its squalid encampments here last summer. There was no disturbance, however. Half a dozen who described them selves as members of the bonus army, led by some of the blue uniformed members of the drum and bugle corps of the local Victory post of the American Legion, placed wreaths on the graves of William J. Hushka and Eric Carlson, victims of the B. E. P. rioting, while Secretary Hurley was speaking.

Drys Pin Hope on Borah To Halt Move for Beer In "Lame Duck" Session WASHINGTON, Nov. J.V (AP) Though assured a big majority In the new congress, wets today measured their chances for beer at the December session of the old largely by the known opposition of Sena tor Borah (EL, Idaho and the unknown attitude of President Hoover. Borah, who was offered the prohl-. bttlon party leaderihlp last July, made plain immediately upon his return to the capltol that he would oppose vigorously both modification of the Volstead act and repeal of the 18th amendment. He forecast no change In prohibi tion at the "lame duck' session, a position contrary to that expressed by house and seite democrats and such a Republics.! regular as Sena tor Reed of Pennsylvania. Drys, already organizing to stop any prohibition legislation, count Borah one of their staunchest sup- porters. Also a prominent part of the picture as they viewed It were President Hoover's campaign ex pre- Ions on prohibition which did not Include beer as did Franklin D. Roosevelt's.
