OLIVER Oliver Cromwell, of which there seems to be a local edition, waa ft pretty fair hellralser himself. He war: "lord protector" of England, and led the "Orand Remonstrance" In 1841. Oliver fought the taxes and Satan, at the same time, either one being a worthy foe. As a result of his activ ities King Charles I of England had bla head chopped off, according to history. He waa busy In the "Long Parliament," the "Short Parliament," and the "Rump Parliament." The latter la the great-great-greet-great-great-great uncle of the late "Rum pus Parliament" on the courthouse iawn. He la described by Clarendon. English historian, aa "a brave, bad man, with all the wlckedneaa against whloh damnation la pronounced, and for which hell tire la prepared." There waa no mean district attorney tn those daya to get mad at, so Mr. Cromwell got after the Lords. He made all of hla frlende major-generala and arrested people for not paying tnelr taxes, though hla own were not paid. He also liked to get drank, and was a great hand to quote tbe Scrip tures end not mean a word of It aa do hla delualoned Imitators today, Hla leading Imitator in America waa William Jennings Bryan. That la why he waa called the "Great Commoner." History also recorda that Cromwell died "in deep remorse, for hi deed."

King Fish (Hooy) Long clashes with Carter Glass. ' . . Why nott The first two belong to one party; the second two to another, but there is no more harmony among Democrats than Republicans. In fact there is no harmony anywhere that we can discover. Judgfcg from reports there is none in Med ford. There is none here. The contractors are fighting union labor, the newspapers are scrapping over highway funds, and there was a fight over bridge last night in this hotel. People looking for peace and quiet better try some other planet. Mr. and Mrs. Wally Campbell dropped in yesterday en route to their home in Pebble Beach have been living the past six merly a rancher in Medford, a member of the University club and held the motor record from Medford to Crescent City at one time. It was before the day of highways. There were only roads then and poor ones. Several miles of corduroy, in the Redwoods near the coast. We have forgotten Wally 's time, but it was SOME fast six or equal to about 90 minutes over low grade boulevards. Mrs. Campbell was formerly Mrs. Edgar Hafer. They both look well Cadillao twin-six and a new these times. This is the ninth straight abouts is put at three weeks.' shooting his stuff, which pleases about what the ranchers think . Fred Cowles has a scheme Instead of spending millions for a farm board he would form a national selling organization with branches in every agricultural center. These various brunches would receive a chart from headquarters what should be raised in tbat particular district, so much wheat, so much corn, so many boxes of pears or apples as .the case might be. These amounts would be based upon actual consumption, and a price giving the grower a reasonable profit would be guaranteed by the association, during a definite period say ten years. Each farmer or grower would be told what acreage to plant and he would be paid for the yield on that acreage and no more. His surplus over this would be destroyed he would bear the loss. There would be no law compelling the individual farmer to join tbe association Mr. Cowles believes most of them would join because they would see it would be to their self interest to do so. Those who refused would be black-listed, so to speak, and an agent would see that their produce when sent to market would 'be undersold by. the association produot. Thus eventually they would be forced to join in self defense. With an overwhelming majority of the producers in the organization, all growers of land products would be assured a profitable business, and the consumer would not have to pay an excessive price. Readers of the Mail Tribune who are interested In the idea and wish to learn more about it, or wish to pick flaws in it, can communicate with Mr. Cowles, 1217 N. Salsipuides St., Santa Barbara. . Of course one flaw tii this 8r any other scheme, to solve" the farm problem, is the weather agent might figure on 30 bushels and a drought oome along and obviously be an upsetln the conditions might increase the normal yield by 30 percent. In short the weather man and that old reliable Old Man Supply and Demand we fear, would be patent plan to guarantee the consumer a fair prioe. 1 The Don Clarks have left withs, but the major portion major, general is still in quarantine. All southern California is afflicted with Spanishitis, but Santa Barbara rather more ao than any other place we have ever visited. There isn't an English or Anglo Saxon name within its boundaries, and nothing without gome Castillian twist to it. The most modest dwelling is at least Castillo rancheria, and no one without three years Spanish could pronounce one half of one peroent of the side streets. We may not -properly appreciate the arty and the characteristic, but our opinion is, Santa Barbara needs at least one good English architect, with authority to lay" out a plain American quarter. Santa B. is a TRLFLE too much tortilla, and not quite ENOUGH corn beef and cabbage. R, W. R. Jackson Co.

Tba pleura I the serous membrane tbat lines the chest cavity and co vera the lungs. Th9 pleu ral aao on each side lit a closed sac containing pooneful or two of serum. It serves to lubri cate the surfaces so that there Js no X r 1 c 1 1 o n of lungs against chest wall or M one lung surface against another surface. Tbe classical sign of pleurisy la "stitch In the side." This often ac companies the onset or early stage of lobar pneumonia, otherwise called pleuro-pneumonla and lung fever. But In most casea p'eurUy la not accompanied with pneumonia, The first Inside fact to be borne In mind when you have pleurisy that you positively must not cough. Indeed, If you can do without breath ing for a day or two It will be a great help, but If you feel you sim ply must go on breathing, breathe just as little as possible. That is why the doctor puts you to bed for a touch of pleurisy, even If you feel able to be up and about. That's why he advises you to lie on the affected side. It Is also the rea son who he puts an adhesive plaster glrle around your chest. The less you breathe for a while the better. Tou need to keep the Inflamed pleura aa quiet aa possible until the acute Inflammation subsides. Also you hope to keep your pleurisy dry. We don't want a lot of- water serum, accumulating In your pleural cavity. And we don't want purulent pleurisy empyema. Empyema la always a grave Illness, the patient suffering septlo poison ing from the collection of pus, which haa no natural outlet or vent. The doctor la always on the watch for any symptoms or signs of this In esses of ordlnsry dry pleurisy, or pneu monia, where convalescence la unduly slow. Prompt - recognition of the presence of pus and Immediate drain age by means of a surgical opening of the sheet is the remedy. The fact that simple dry pleurisy, one or several successive attacks, so ofen occurs In the earliest stage of pulmonary tuberculosis, perhaps be fore the tuberculosis la definitely dlagn ed, makes the physician sus picious of all mild pleurisies. siMcet pleurisies are caused by In fection of the pleura with the Pneu- FANCY FIGURING WILL FIX BUDGET I!

Their home gov ernments were far more aroused about the campaign than people here. Their survey Indicated only a alight falling off In purchases of foreign commod ities particularly silks. That la the same experience of the London "Buy British" oampslgn of some months ago. It sounded good, but people .generally bought what they had been accustomed to buying and what they wanted. Out official circles have heard through the best diplomatic chan nel that the Chinese have resolved to do or die fighting. They have given up hope that the League of Natlona or the united State will atop Japan. The military lineup In the Orient would Indicate they will corns nearer dying than doing. All together the Chinese have two mllltone under arms. Not half that number can be mus tered agalnat the Jap unless they take In the private armies. That policy will give the Japs th.tr needed excuse for going aa far aa they tike. sTuropean governments are very much worried about the Udlted States turning the Philippines loot. They privately sounded out the state de partment while Mr. Hoover was writ ing hla veto message. The British and Dutch made porno rial and unof ficial representations to government officials about It. They are all afraM of what Japan will do out there. Their fears, how ever, had nothing to do with admin istration policy. They did not talk until the bill was pissed by congress. No national defense objections were Involved la the veto policy either.

Technocracy s Head Man Stirs New Controversy With Gloomy Forecast Hearers Are Left Bewildered by Lecturer , Science and Engineering Claims Resented by Corporation Man Br AAYMONb CBOWLET. w . NEW YORK, Jan. 16. AP) Technocracy's head nun. Howard scow had stirred up a new wave of controversy today as a result of hla iirsx formal discussion of the subject with some leading bankers and industrialists. The New York Times said a survey i of the audience which ' heard him Saturday night at a society of arts and science dinner showed that In general his hearers expressed skeptl clsm, as well as disappointment at what they regarded as i confused presentation." Bees Unemployment Grow, Scott had sUd: That social conditions would get worse and wort If present trends continued, and that unemployment would Increase In this country to 30,000,000 within 18 months un'lesa steps were taken; that "not one sin gle outstanding political or financial figure had come forward with any proposal tvhat has one lota of useful ness In dealing with present day con ditions; That '.'there la nothing Inherent in democracy, or the price system, that can deal with the problems In hand;" That "the more energy we consume per capita, the more Is & change In control necessitated; ' That America and Russia both have an 'obsolete price system;' Rich and Reds Aligned. That "tohnocracy has undoubtedly caused the strangest alignment In history" the debt merchant and the communist being "down In the mud of the last ditch, fighting shoulder to shoulder In defense of a system of advantage.' Tbe banrers, whom Scott referred to as "debt merchants," heard him calmly. Although Scott denied tech nocracy was trying to say "there la going to be chaos or there It going to be doom Jefferson Scllgraan, of Sellgman Brothers, bankers, found Scott's views "rather gloomy." 'It Is a great thing to think about,' he said. 'I have great respect for Mr. Scott but I think bis views are rather gloomy. He seems to feel the end of the world Is comtlng. Hla opinions leave me bewildered. Tech nocracy offers a lucrative field for thought and speculation; It embraces many fields philosophy, sociology economics." Vanderllp Concuhs. Frank A. Vanderllp, former presi dent of the National City ank, found the findings of technocracy "a pret ty true picture." He said, however, he would reserve Judgment until more official material was published. Lloniel D, Edle, economist, com plained criticism of technocracy was virtually impossible because It was "difficult to know when a man really represented technocracy there are too many unofficial spokesmen for. the 'white House." Scott, a tall man with a wry smile wfto smokes cigarettes fast and often, said: "We are not bothering to re ply to critics. We dont have to." He said that "conditions in the next two years on this continent will de termine who la correct." ' Unique Statement. He declared, according to a steno graphic transcription, that "we are in that unique situation that tech nocracy receiving the attention of the world It Is now going to be used, at least the attempt Is going to be made to use technocracy, not by those within technocracy Itself, but your present polltlcclan and your aeot mercnants are going to pose technocracy as one of the proposi tions that will neeceaeltate a state politically which would be so grave that an institutional fascism will be proposed under the guise of dicta torial prerequisites of the Incoming president." The meeting was held under the auspices of the Society of Arte and Sciences. As he stated hit speech, Scott care fully doused his cigarette and refer ri to the public attention that technocracy haa 'received. Technocracy Booming. Technocracy,' he said, "speaking (coignc rrom tne continental divi sion 7340, wishes to be perfectly un derstood that this hss broken upon It like nothing else that has hap. pened to any similar organisation, you might say, in the memory of man. "Months ago, we were a quiet, un known, non-profit organisation, which In the year 1932 has expended torn than $1,200 and received not more than $300 outside of the sub scriptions of it mm1;. It has written H.000 words. Those 14.000 words, to Judge from the results, are the most potent 14,000 that have been written up to date, if action and Interest and curiosity are on this continent any Julge of results." ; Waves Question Away. ! Amember of tbe audience sent Scott a written question, reading:! "Does technocracy function to ad ministrate the laws of economics?' "That'a a funny question. said Scott. "Economics a.rt much to recom mend it. It's as good bridge, though, I gtteas. It's a good way to show the fatuity of the debt system. I'm not answering auch questions as that. Technocracy doesn't have to. vTe're not prima donnas. We havent any public. The question Is. are we correct? . Not what are we going to do. A surrey of the audience was made after the meeting by the New York Times, which reported that In gen eral meet of Scott's hearers wr dis appointed with what they regarded st a confuwd presentation andwere skeptical of Mr. Scott aa an engineer wno Asa railed to be explicit con cerning the new social order which be regarded as necessary. Claims Relented. Oano Dunn, president of the J. O. White Rngtneerlng Corporation, said: I resent the claims to tc'.ence and engineering made by the tech- ... i, ,Z,. distinctly contrary to the method, of dene and erutineerUuf. Mr. Scott - - - hat Just tald. We t bother with critics. a statement which no man who-is a scientist or an engi neer could ever mase. . .-I . Tha. minv of those ins imiw . present bad definite views, in most cases uncomplimentary, out. to be quoted. One well known banker remarked bitterly that Mr. Scott "certainly was selling America short. M M . Edle, a former professor of finance vt.

Editorial Comment Not Interested In Riots. Over In Medford thla week they had a rather thrilling experience, resulting from their political wara In that com munity. In the last election two new county commissioner were electee in a turnover somewhat similar to the one In thl county, except that the contest waa much more bitter- The one holdover commissioner, not wish ing to serve without his old col lesgues, resigned. In tbe last hour of their regime the two aeiesica com missioners appointed a successor. Bnurred on by tbe fulmlnatlons of the dramatto Llewellyn Banks, pub lisher of tbe Medford New (the same one who ran for TJ. 8. senate against McKary a couple of year back) tbe protest element threatened to march on the new county courthouse In force and evict the appointed com missioner. So drsstlo were the threats that the American Legion threatened to turn out and do duty In the name of law and order. When the grand march finally came off last Friday not half of the. expected marchers turned out. In fact, most of the thousand or ao who gathered at the courthouse were mere Interested spec tators. Nothing much happened. Speecbea and demands were made. The com missioner under attack waa booed when he came forward to argue hi own defense. The crowd finally dis persed, disappointed at tbe tameneas of the affair. The three commis sioners (tbe two elected and the one appointed) sat down together and went through the routine of county business In good humor. And that was that. Medford apparently ha been suf fering from some very unstable leader ship In recent montha. Every com munity bas perloda of that kind. But there la no real radical pressure in Jackson county. Tbe pear growers snd alfalfa ranchers will vote for change, but very few of them will waste time In -useless brawllngs. In tbo long run, Medford will settle Its troubles by the pesceful process of give and take. Medford 1 rather typical of tbe en tire country. The agitators have their day of Influence. Then people grow tired of them. Genuine reforms are never built In one. day. Eugene Register Ousrd. Reese Creek REESE CREEK, Jan. 18. (Spl.) Mr. and Mrs. C. W. McDowell and Mr. and Mr. J. w.
