Ye Smudge Pot
..; By Artbnr Perry
Several old-fashioned Oregon towns
have started plans tor Spring clean
ups, In more ways than 1. ,
.
' CHlcens have started arguing about
Technocracy. All agree that It would
be all right, If It would work, so no
body else would have to. Under
Technocracy there would be no hu
man fizales. If ft man wont fishing,
tie would know before he started, that
h to hh (minor to catch what he want-
m& to catch. It would eliminate all
uncertainty. The Salem Statesman
alzes It up this way:
t we are living In a psychology
, of failure, where the man who
has made any success Is viewed as
. suspect, a fellow to be looted of
hti goods; and where we would
' pamper the- Idle, and extol the
destitute.
i Technocracy hoias the promise of
unlimited loatiwr. Under It there
would be nothing to do but stand
motionless on the corner and wait
for something sweet to happen.
"
f LET'S 1IAVB ANOTHER, IIICI
(Providence, It. I., Journal)
Prohibition, to my mind, has
served Its purpose, ro to least
achieved all that can be expect
edfl by ellra natlng the corner
saloon. But I amb thoroughly
convinced that It can never
beenforcer wlthany degree of suc
cess o as a measure to prohibit
drinking or as a means of rofoim
Ing the habits, mirals, atoste and
viewpoint of a nation, ' .
..'
, Toung America Is being subjected
to examinations, In the capitalistic
schools, and Old America hereabouts
Is also under examination, by upstate
critics.
We have just been Informed that
J, Kort Hall, who 20 yoora ago pre
dicted the airplane would never do
much flying, and that the tractor
would never displace the horse, has
endorsed Technocracy. This, coupled
with Peoria Bill Gates approval will
cook Technocracy, merit or no merit,
Miles Martin, in town Friday from
til wind blown ranch, says It Is
indeed a sorry looking plaoe. (Hepp
ner, Ore., News.) Dark clouds lower.
Opposition to the General Sales
Tax has developed In the legislature.
This Is misleading title,, Many think
that the Oenerals should be left
lone, and the sales taxoa slapped on
the 2nd loots, because they were more
plentiful.
..-
The weather Friday was Ideal, warm
he spring. Even the early morning
hours, that Is, around 8 o'clock, the
air was brisk and pleasant and the
sunrise with not a cloud In ins sky,
left nothing to be desired. (Umatilla
County Kotos.) Not even lower taxes,
"People are not spending money for
1033 gusto. Hence there Is leas money
being spent." -(Siskiyou s Journal.)
Just try and got away from that kind
of logic.
"MATERIAL FOR COMIO OPFIRA

ought to tip thorn off about Jackson
county conditions.
Social Hons and social HoncwM
are now torn between the Great Out
doors and the Great Indoors, and
some hie to the Slaklyous to ski, and
tome hie to the capacious basements
to play ping-pong, there being just
as many he-men and she-women, one
place as the other. The worst that
can happen In a ping-pong game is :
to get an Impromptu spanking with
a ping-pong paddle. In skiing one
can break most anything from the
neck down, and not H try. The
bracing mountain air braces the !
skllers. The plngpongltee have no
bracers. Both sexes ski skilfully, but
the lady skllers get the worst of It.
The male skllers full of bracing
mountain air band together, feloni-!
ou sly, and wash the rouge off her1
face with snow, and the mascara off
her eyebrows, and top off the revelry
and playfulness by shoving a pound
OS snow down her back. Occasionally

three grown men, bent on being

then the assailants approach chival
rously and, apologize for being no dog

Editorial Correspondence
- SANTA BARBARA, Jan. 15. Good work by the Medford
and Ashland Legion posts !. Also by Colonel E. E. Kelly. They
give just what the Medford and Jackson county situation needs
courageous leadership and outspoken adherence to the funda
mental principles of good citizenship. No names were men
tioned. What they both said all good oitizens could uncompro
misingly endorse. If the shoe fitted certain agitating trouble
makers, let. the agitating trouble makers put it on. We con
gratulate the two legion posts and Col. Kelly on rendering a
genuine public service to a community, which from all we can
learn, is sadly confused, disrupted and distressed. These public
statements should go far toward clearing the atmosphere, and
allowing the right thinking public spirited citizens of the com
munity, getting behind a program of forward-looking progress
and constructive accomplishment. ,
The trouble with the situation in Jackson county for many
months has been the lack of leadership and the absence of any
organized opposition. The job of trying to stop this tiresome
and destructive hulabaloo, has devolved entirely upon the news
papers. What one 'newspaper may say of another is always
discounted, and therefore this
have been many citizens willing to condemn this disruptive and
incendiary propaganda, in private, but few willing to do it in
public, to suffer the villiflcntion and personnl abuse that any
public opposition would involve.
Colonel Kelly SHOWS. THE
up by members of the American
zation and individuals will follow their example, not to injure
ANYONE, or retard any movement for GENUINE reform that
may be needed, but to pull Medford and Jackson county out
of the mess in which it has fallen, and allow it to fight its way
out of this depression, instead
Because of an unexpected and decidedly unwelcome visita
tion of Old Man Flu, what was planned as a one night stop in
Santa Barbara, has been lengthened into a two weeks stay. As
a result this delegation's mail has been wandering all over
southern California, and 'its communications have been sadly
shattered. But we believe our appraisal of the situation is not
far from correct, for unless we are greatly mistaken, the recent
crisis, has merely been the logical and inevitable outcome, of
what has been going on for so many months in fact for at least
two or three years. I
, This has been in a few words, the attempt of a small minority,
headed by the Banks-Fehl-Wilkins triumvirate, to so capitalize
the prevailing unrest and discontent; so aggravate it, by circu
lating false charges and distorting facts, that in the resulting
ohaos and confusion, they could attain complete political control
of Medford and Jackson county.
The will-to-power the hope of cashing in on this power
has been the milk in the cocoanut the nigger in the woodpile
from the start, and is today. , '
We believe the slightest analysis of the latest denouement in
this opera bouffe, by any fair minded citizen, will establish the
truth of this statement. To an outsider the performance may
seem like the ravings of the Mad Hatter, or an excerpt from
some comic opera extravaganza, but analysis shows a definite
and shrewd purpose behind it all. This is to remove all county
officials who will not take orders from the triumvirate.
There is absolutely no other explanation to this melodramatic
original effort to remove such recently eleoted officials as
County Clork Carter, such a rcccutly RE-ELECTED official as
District Attorney George Codding, and such a recently AP
POINTED official as Commissioner Nealon. " . .
Only a little over two months ago the people of Jackson
county chose George Codding to serve a second term; they also
chose County Clerk Carter, and Commissioner Billinga. Mr.
Nenlon, only about two weeks ago, was appointed county com
missioner. .
It is obvious that in this short time only since the first of
the year none of these men in their official capacity, COULD
hnve done anything to justify their recall, or to demand their
retirement. In fact as far as we can learn no oharges whatever
have been brought against them, and for a very good reason
because nothing can be said against them. They are all good
citizens, honest, conscientious, and devotod to the public
interest,
Why then this frenzied effort to get rid of them I
The answer is plain simply because they would be obstacles
to this attompt or any other attempt, of this clique or any
other clique, to diotate to them what they should do, or not do
to make thorn more rubber stamps, to take their orders day by
day, from self appointed dictatorship,
THAT'S ALL1 If any of these officials had agreed to do
what Mr. Wilkins for example did repudiate their own state
ments (aa he did on the Norton recall) agree to be GOOD and
play ball, this offort to drive thorn from office would stop
overnight.
The peorl of Jackson county
to this situation now, aa recent developments have opened their
eyes to the real nature of the problem confronting them.
We believe they are wise at
And in spite of the distance from the scene of action, and the
inability to be in olose touoh with the day to day developments
we feel that the recent statements by the Medford and Ashland
Legion posts and "Judge" Kelly, justify this belief. Now let
the loyal, right-thinking oitizens of Medford and Jackson county
get behind them, follow this leadership a leadership ao greatly

SLEEPING BE
It seems evident, from tbe queries
that turn up regularly In our cor
respondence with people In all walks
of life and In
every part of the
country, that the
notion or fancy
Is common that
one should sleep
headed north.
For most pop
u 1 s r beliefs or
fancies one can
find some plaus
ible reason or e
planatlon plaus
ible to a layman
Ignorant of sci
ence. For this
persistent Idea that It Is well to head
north when sleeping I can discover
not the slightest ground. If any of
our readers can enlighten me or sug
gest a substantial theory to account
for the notion, I shall oe grateiui,
Here Is a chance to get baog at ne.
Sleep Is as deep a mystery to us
today as It was to the ancient doc
tors. Every little while some half
quack "scientist," usually a "research
laboratory" worker (and as likely as
not subsidized by some big business
Interest) discovers and tells the world
the secret of sleep.
Of the numerous theories that
physiologists have conceived to ac
count for natural sleep half a, dosen
are worthy of mention. 1. Sleep Is
brought on by the accumulation of
acid waste products in the blood.
The main experimental evidence In
support of this theory Is the effect
produced by Injecting lactic acid or
sodium lactate into the blood this
produces a state of fatigue and fi
nally loss of consciousness. 3.
Sleep is due to the exhaustion of the
store of oxygen available to the brain
cells faster than It can me replaced
by oxygen from the blood. This theory
Is practically abandoned, since precise
measurements of metabolism have
shown that the brain cells use an
Inslgnlffosnt amount of oxygen, when
the Individual does concentrated brain
"work." 3. Sleep Is caused by re
traction of neurons, the terminal fila
ments of nerve fibres by which con
tact is made with the brain cell. This
bearklng of nerve connections cannot
be demonstrated by microscopic ob
servation of brain tissue during nat
ural sleep, of course. 4. The great
Russian physiologist, Pawlow, propos
ed the theory of Inhibition to ac
count for natural sleep only ft fun
damental knowledge of physiology i
can make this theory clear. S.
Some special toxin formed during
waking hours finally accumulates In!
Editorial Comment
Look O and Laugh.
Wlllamlna has its school' fight,
Klamath Falls Its mayoralty contest
'and Medford, where the flowers of
discord flourish perennial, Is having
now its latest blossom of animosity
and vlndlctlveness. It seems
though cities from time to time must
have a ftrst-clasa row which, like
thunderstorm, attracts great atten
tion, but it Is always followed by ft
period of calm. Emulating the late,
noted George Joseph, who when dis
barred, ran for governor and won,
Earl Fehl, editor of a spindly Medford
paper and subject of numerous libel
suits, sought the county Judgeship
last year In a divided field, and came
home the winner.
Fehl's right bower Is L. A. Banks
of the Medford News. Banks has
been sued on a half doeen counts,
has rowed with one group of em
ployes after another, has fought off
receivership and attachment. Both
men hold to the theory that the best
defense Is a good offense and answer
charge with countercharge. Fehl and
Banks now seek to oust the two com
missioners who, sitting with Fehl on
the county court, nevertheless op
pose him. Apparently the "lunatic
fringe" which always appears to help
out men who talk loudly and wave
the bloodahlrt, are out to aid Fehl
and Banks, People away from Med
ford look on and laugh, conserva
tive Modfordltea deplore the state to
which their city has fallen and parti
sans on each side attack and defend
one another with great seriousness.
Time will solve the situation for the

Without adequate publicity their day
would never come. Coos Bay Times.
Grant Pass Goes Forward.
Unless we are very careful H Is
probabl that tomorrow will find us
bewailing the lost opportunities of
today. The cttlsens of Grants Pass
prefer their new project of beautify
ing the approach to their city., on the
Redwood highway, to the dubtous
pleasures of commiserating one an
other upon the depression. It ts a
sane and helpful preference, and it
Insures progress at a time when retro
gression Is the usual watchword.
If every city of comparable popu
lation were to oease lamenting, and
cast about for some useful work
ready to Its hand, and begin work
ing, most of us would cease dis
cussing the depression. For the de
pression no longer would exist. It
would be banished by the return of
Initiative, and hopet and elvtc pride.
There can be no depression when you
are not depressed. It Is not suggest
ed that these opportunities for civic
Improvement, such as Grants Pass
has embraced, should bespeak con
siderable expenditures of money.
They need not.
These are contributions to the
times, and very corrective ones, which
can be made by cooperative cttisen
shlp In large degree. But thslr com
bined effect would certainly express
Itself in the stimulation of other en
terprises . It has long ago been agreed
that the country ts comparable to the

enough Interest in his own condition

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
10 Truth With 90 Hokum.
Here Is the home treatment for
superfluous hair given by . . . (a
woman in the beauty business) .
If the treatment is safe will It really
remove hair for good? P. B.
Answer- The catch In the method
Lis the funny soap you must u
that's where the madam gets her
profit. The results would be the
same If any other soap were used.
The part of the "treatment" which
removes hair Is where you "rub it
off with the flat side of a pumice
stone, leaving the skin smooth."
That's one way of shaving, and ac
cording to one comely woman who
has had experience the regular, mod
erate use of the fine toilet pumice
stone sold by druggists and toilet
goods dealers Is the most satisfac
tory way to deal with superfluous
hair on the face.
Electro-Surgery for Goiter.
Is diathermy ever used In the
treatment of inward goiter? I mean
electro-surgery or the electric .knife?
I thank you for having recommended
me to Dr. . . , who removed my ton
sils with diathermy. He is very skill
ful. My throat Is as clean as a
throat could be after any operation,
my family physician says. M. R. F.
Answer Yea, the endothermy
knife (which sears the tissue as the
spark dissects It) Is used by most
surgeons In goiter operations, brain
operations, kidney operations and
other surgery where It Is desirable to
prevent oozing or the spreading of
malignancy.
Tapeworm.
, Is there such a thing as tape
worm? Old-time fakers who exhib
ited Jars of "snakes" . , . have a rela
tive who Is very thin yet eats twice
aa much as an average person . . ,
O. R.
Answer Tea, many healthy, well- j
nourished persons, with normal appe-1
tlte, harbor tapeworm, which usually
does not affect the host's health ap- j
preclably.

Communications
Unduly Alarmed.
To the Editor:
Glad to see the malthuslan theory
of population being aired out In your
columns.
It promises to become more and
more In the spotlight as the contra
dictions of our social system become
acute. It is even now very seriously
engaging tbe attention of some of the
world's best minds and many have
become alarmed. But unduly so at
least, such is the opinion of the
undersigned; and since he believes
that the theory can not too often be
stated here goes:
Food supply increases In arithmetic
ratio. Population In geometrical ra
tio, e.g.
Food supply: 1, 3, 3, 4. 8, etc.
Population: 1, a, 4, 8, 10, 32, 64, etc.
From pondering over this theory,
Darwin evolved the epochal evolu
tionary theory. The facta of fecun
dity are of enormous Importance. For
every Individual that reaches matu
rity, upwards of hundreds of millions
must perish simply because they can
not get a "toe-hold and hang on."
Food supply takes care that they do
not.
Hence the law of the survival of
the fittest the unfit pass out. This
law, with modifications, operates In
our society with the "slickest." not
the biologically best fitted, surviving,
and It Is called "rugged Individual
ism.' The population theory Is a biologi
cal one and is applicable to man as
an animal only in a very low state
of social organisation now In our
own, the food supply Is solved. If
man Is wiped out, It will not be be
cause he can not produce enough, but
because understanding of his true
condition has not been sufficiently
diffused.
The over-population alarmists err
In basing their sociology directly
upon biology. When biological laws
pass through the colendar of mind.
they surely must to operate in
society, much of their destructive ten.
dencles generate antithetical psycho
logical laws making them harmless or
better yet beneficial.
