CENATOR Huey P. Long, "Kingfuh of Louisiana politics,"
conferred with President-elect Roosevelt yesterday.
After the conference, Governor Roosevelt called in bis ex
pert advisor, Professor Raymond Moley of Columbia University.
This aotion did not please the Eingfisb. To the waiting
reporters be remarked:
"This collage professor la the wise man of the East. But I told
him there never was a wise man who didn't at one time or another
have to talk to a wlaer man. I left him with the Impression that
If ha ever wanted to aae me again h could."
Very interesting. Not so much what Honorable Huey said,
as the fact that our next President, after seeing the Eingfisb,
called in Professor Moley as a "chaser" or would an antidote
be the better termt
Senator Huey Long is the typical ballyhoo politician, long
on words, short on facts, great in promises, small in perform
ances, an out and out demagogue of the first water.
No doubt he told Governor Roosevelt how to run the coun
try. It is interesting and reassuring to observe, that our next
President, instead of dismissing the Louisiana Eingfisb as
merely a four-flusher and a windbag which he undoubtedly
is turned his offerings over to the Columbia professor for
analysis and classification.
rLAT shows the right spirit. Governor Roosevelt will give
a hearing to all, listen as patiently to the Huey Longs, as
a few days ago, he listened to the delegation of communists.
But he will test their proposals in the light of knowledge
and' the truth he will leave the determination of facts, par
ticularly economic facts to a specialist in the realm of those
facts.
This reliance upon a "perfessor" will of course evoke sneers
and ridicule from the demagogues and the radicals, for their
stock in trade is to appeal to ignorance, to passions and pre
judices. BUT the American people as a whole will feel very differ
ently about it. Regardless of party they will be cheered
by, the knowledge that they have in their new President, a man
who maintains an open mind toward all, but charters his course,
on the basis of the best expert advice and soundest informa
tion that he can obtain.
Can America Stay Home?
iAN America Stay At Hornet" This is the question Fiank
H. Simonds, well known journalist and authority upon
international questions, asks in a new volume to be published
by Harper & Brothers today.
Last year in his "Can Europe Eeep the Peace t" a book
which had a great success both in America and Europe, Mr.
Simonds discussed the present crisis in Europe. The new book
describes America's relation to this crisis and explains why all
the various Amerioan efforts to promote peace in Europe and
order and prosperity in the world have so far failed and why
tha failure has been a great factor in the present world depres
sion and American bard times.
see
A NSWERING his question, "Can America Stay at Hornet",
Mr. Simonds says, "No," but if it cannot Btay at home,
he asserts that neither can it accomplish anything useful by
continuing to try to impose its own solutions upon continental
peoples. He declares that today the one thing most necessary
in the world is a period of international political calm, another
truce like that of Locarno, and be says that the United States
could aid in insuring auch a truce if it would agree with all
other signatory powers of the Kellogg Paot for a period of
five years to join in economio and financial sanctions against
any country resorting to aggression and refusing to halt an
invasion of a qeighbor's territory.
Mr. Simonds declares: "Sooner or later the American peo
ple will have to follow in debts the examples of the French in
reparations. They will have to abandon an attempt to collect
debts because the cost of collection in international rancor and
eoonomio chaos is prohibitive. So far we have only sent good
money after bad."
TpODAT, Mr. Simonds points out, all well informed European
observers see the approach of a new war.
"The Continent is divided between armed nations resolved
to maintain the peace treaties and nations disarmed by the
treaties but resolved to have armies equal to their neighbors
and to recover the territories lost in the war. German nation
alism and Japanese imperialism have reduced the League to a
pitiable state. The Manchurian affair shattered ita prestige
and the failure of the Arms Conference, to date has been a
second terrible blow."
Salmon Oil Discovered

United Bute children's bureau.
Salmon oil contains twice aa much
vitamin D, the vitamin necessary to
prevent and cur rickets, as doe cod
liver oil, until now the beet known
antl-rlcket medicine. The discovery
was msde by Dr. Martha M. Bllot of

son of the depsrtment of agriculture,
and Dr. O. D. Tolle of the bureau of
fUherlee.

Mississippi and the Sales Tax
In this article I will quote from
speeches made by Governor Connor
of Mississippi. First I quote from a
message delivered by the governor to
the legislature of Mississippi, March
8, 1833, prior to the passage of the
sales tax In that state:
"Home owning has become a bur
den, and further Increase In land
taxes would result In disaster. Love
of home support patriotism and no
oltlaen can ardently love a govern
ment that, through an oppressive
and Inequitable tax system, derives
him of the Joy of home ownership.
Many of the leading nations
have long depended upon a consum
er's tax for their chief source of
revenue. A notable example Is
France.
"There are those who oppose a
sales tax because sometimes It falls
Upon necessities. WIS ASSERT THE
PROPERTY TAX FAI.LS HEAVIEST
UPO?J NECESSITIES. WE ARE TAX
ING TO THE POINT OF CONFIS
CATING LAND. under the
property tax we not only tax their
earning power but we even confis
cate and take from them the very
means by which they earn the ne
cessities of life.
"If tax demands are not met our
sovereign state will take the shelter
from the heads of the weak, the
aged and Infirm, the Invalid, the
helpless baby and the unfortunate
alike. THE POOR CANNOT
MEET THE DEMAND AND MUflT
FORFEIT THEIR HOMES. I appeal
to you to give relief to those who.
strive as hard as they may, are be
ing driven from the shelter of their
homes.
"If you levy a retail sales tax I
urge you to fix the rate not lower
than 3 per cent on all merchandise
sales. The one per cent sales tax
.has all the objections and none of
the merits of the three per rent
proposal. It would mean no re
duction In In property taxes. It
would cost Just as much to collect
one dollar under a one per cent tax
aa to collect a dollar under a three
per cent tax.
"I Implore you now In this hour
of necessity, to take the first step
and make the first gesture toward
a reformation of our discredited tax
system. SO AS TO PERMIT THE
HOMEOWNER TO KEEP HIS HOME
AND THE HOMELESS TO SECURE A
HOME."
around the block or do any calis
thenics before retiring may find a
few somersaults at bedtime a help.
When your age gets up about
where your temperature should be, It
Is nice to have your attendant give
the sheets an Ironing Just before you
hit the cornhusks, or to slip an elec
tric warming pad In about your feet.
Hot water bottles or Jugs are all very
well, but what will the nurse think
If the cork comes out In the night?
In any case of cold feet It Is futile
to attempt to correct the trouble by
heating the room up "bov? the hy
gienic temperature. The hygienic
temperature for a living room Is from
64 degrees P. to 68, and for a sleep
ing room the air temperature should
be little If any above the outdoor
temperature, except in certain cases
of Illness.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
OH to Prevent Skin Irritation
After a bath my skin seems dry
and Irritable or Itchy. . , (Mrs. L. H.)
Answer. Don't bathe. If you must
bathe, then don't use soap or hot
water. After the bath restore the oil
you have washed out of the skin.
This skin oil Is excellent:
Heat over a water bath (double
boiler) four ouncea of sesame oil
with 30 grains of powdered benzoin,
for two or three hours. Then add 13
drops of absolute alcohol and filter.
This la a good oil for the scalp and
hair, to. The preparation of the skin
oil Is a task for the pharmacist.
Belly Breathing
If your belly breathing, which I
have practiced with excellent results,
as Instructed by you, the same as
what Is called diaphragmatic breath
ing? Several people have said "Dr.
Brady's belly brathlng Is all right,
only one would not want to go around
all day with the mouth open." Are
they not under some misapprehen
sion? (T. H. S.)
Ans. Swimmers breathe through
the mouth yet no one Imagines
swimmers must go around all day
with the mouth open. Sprinters and
other athletes breathe through the
mouth when In the race. The belly
breathing might be called diaphragm
atlo breathing, but why do so? Most
people who glibly refer to the dia
phragm have no sound notion what
the diaphragm la or what It does.
Not So Stale Now
I started taking your lodln ration
In February, and before the month
was up I noticed I felt much less
tired. I took It during May and
again during August, and I want to
tell you I am feeling fine. I guess I
had gone stale, all right. (O. H.)
Ans. Olad to send Instructions to
mature adults who feel stale, no am
bition, tired out Inclose stamped
envelope bearing your address and
ask for lodln Ration. -
(Copyright, John P. rjue Co.)
Now I will quote from a speech
delivered by Governor Connor Oct.
6th, 1933, before the bankers asso
ciation at Los Angeles atter the sales
tax had been In operation In Miss
issippi for five months:
"Mississippi approved a two per
cent general sales tax April 30th.
1033. It was adopted as an emerg
ency measure. Four months was re
quired to pass the sales tax through
the legislature. It was predicted
it would destroy business and al
most all the newspapers in the state
bitterly opposed It.
"Today practically all opposition
to It has vanished. Many of the moat
active opponents of the sales tax are
now among Its most ardent advo
cates. There are few complaints
from the consumer to Whom the tax
la pasted. Now resolutions are be
ing adopted by publlo meetings of
tax payers and local officials In
every section of the state urging the
legislature to raise the sales tax
from two per cent to five per cent.
Oovernlng boards of A3 counties have
petitioned for this action.
'Our people believe th sales tax
by decreasing the weight of an an
cient and broken down property tax
system WILL PERMIT THE EXEMP
TION OF THE HOMESTEAD FROM
TAXATION. THEY WANT THE
SALES TAX TO REPLACE TAX
SALES. We. who found It difficult
to secure for It ample time In which
to prove Itself before it Is extended."
The last paragraph In this speech
of Governor Connor Is of special sig
nificance. The a per cent sales tax
as passed by the Mississippi legisla
ture only provided for emergency re
lief, that Is Its purpose was to make
It possible to balance the budget.
Now It Is proposed to Increase this
Mies tax so that IT WILL PERMIT
THE EXEMPTION OF A HOME
STEAD FORM TAXATION. I believe
In this state at this time the exemp
tion of the homesteads from taxa
tion should have tn consideration.

Hero of Many Storms
Rests After 42 Years
PORTLAND, Ore., Dec. 1. (P) For
nearly half a century. O. 8. Wlckland
braved the waters of the Pacific ocean
in their wildest and most turbulent
moods. Today, after 43 years In the
United States coast guard, he retired
to enter upon a long-postponed vaca
tion and to close an enviable record.
His fellow officers gave Captain
Wlckland a party last night. And
today he was far more eager to dis
cuss that party than, for Instance,
the wreck of the Roeecrans, when he
saved two survivors, or the "crash of
the Peter Iredale, when he rescued
the entire crew In a boiling surf and
a full gale.
For many years Captain Wlckland
was In charge of the Point Adams sta
tion. As a result of some of the
most daring rescues ever undertaken

president, original owners of the
newspaper, who yesterday filed a sec
ond plea for the appointment of a
receiver, as holder of promissory notes
and a chattel mortgage, was also
present.
The defense demurred to the peti
tion for a receivership, upon the
grounds there was Insufficiency of
cause, that the plaintiffs had less
drastlo relief, such as an attachment,
and that all the creditors should have
been named as parties to the suit,
and that there was lack of cause for
the naming of a receive'. Attorney
Wllklns cited numerous cases, and
opinions of supreme courts, to uphold
his position.
Ths defense argued that the re
ceivership petition was not valid be
cause It tended to usurp the powers
of the bankruptcy court, and that the
situation did not demand the drastic
legal action sought. A number of
fine and Involved points of law were
presented.
The Issue did not concern the civil
suit launched against the newspaper
and L. A. Banks. Its editor-publisher,
by Arthur L. Schoenl and three other
employe -creditors for the collection
of wages allegedly due, or the re
ceivership petition of the former
owners of the publication. They
were viewed by the court as separate
matters.
The present receivership case Is In
stituted for the purpose of "conserv
ing the resources of the paper."
Hubbard, employed as a bookkeeper,
and three co-plaintiffs sought the re
ceivership following their discharge.

One of the most famous of these
rescues attended the wrecking of the
tanker Rosecrans lr 1913, which
fetched upon Peacock spit and sank
with all hands but two. Into a ter
rific sea and storm Captain Wlckland
and his men launched an open boat
and saved the two.
In October, 1906, the Peter Ireland

Adams crew, under Captain Wlckland.
launched a boat In a tremendous suif
and went out Into one of the worst
storms that ever struck the coast.
All 38 of the crew were taken off and
landed safely. The bow of the Peter
Iredale still lies half burled on the
beach, a monument to the heroism
of the coast guard.
An ever Increasing demand for
clothing was reported at the Welfare
Exchange yesterday by the commit
tee members, who announced that
150 persons called for clothing In the
one day. There were 33 women em
ployed In the work room, which was
made to accommodate about 10, all
endeavoring to earn script with which
to pay for the clothing to be ob
tained at the Exchange.
One of the greatest needs at the
present time la for underwear, the
committee also announced yesterday,
urging all persons, who possibly can,
to bring in under things for men,
women and children, and stockings
for which there Is a constant call.
Men's trousers and overalls are also
badly needed, according to the re
port. The line of people asking for
ordinary work clothes, for which they
will work In payment, is Increasing
each day. All are willing to work for
what they receive, and most of them
are in desperate need.
Even clothing that Is worn or torn
Is desired by the Exchange, as the
women are willing and anxious to
darn and remodel the garments.
Anyone with something to give Is
asked to deliver the package to the
Welfare Exchange, which Is above the
old city hall on rront street on Sat
