PIONEER DROP OP INK (Pendleton East Oregonlan) Wanted fiome winter weather. This season has been so mild all the country up to this data that vegetation has kept green and fears era entertained that no Ice will be gathered. Later The ad vantage of advertising can. not be overestimated. Before the above could get through the press a anow storm came and we all are frozen up tight I (60 jr. ago oolumn). Newspapers are publishing plcturss "taken In an unguarded moment", of J. Flerpont Morgan, Wall Street plu tocrat and wretch. Either the mom. ante should be guarded, or Mr. Mor gan ahould cease looking like a pre historto man, trying to tnlnk. What a lot of people would like to got off, I the dime standard. The annual cocking school of the Mall Tribune has started, with a large attendance, and consequent sharp de cline In attendance at bridge lunch eons, missionary society meetings and other functions having for their aim, the betterment of all mankind In cluding husbands. Most of those In attendance, are amply able to fry a chicken leg, fit to be eaten by a king, or the state treasurer, when out cuss ing the subsidized press, and looking tar votes. Present were three lady cooks from the Eagle Point district, whose cooking should only be dis pensed In Heaven, It Is so divine. Alio present was Alice Hanley, who chills her salad and desserts. In the milk- house, beneath the weeping willow tree the sprout of which was brought across the plains, In a potato. No modern many-fangled refrigerator, with snow white sides could keep the cream or 8.3 fluid any better or cool er. Every male pioneer figures on at tending the September reunion, and stuffing himself with the Hanley an. gel cake. Justice BUI Coleman once ate two of them, at one sitting, ere discretion and his better V4 got the better of htm. Another lady, who knows which side of the kitchen etove to work from, la O. Wig Ash pole's Ma. She can fry a piece of ced ar post, and make It taste like a corn fed tenderloin. It Is this type of mas ter cooks, who go to cooking school, and learn how to put a permanent crimp In a lettuce leaf. The prejudice against murder, Jails, lying, and organised cuasedness con tinues. Alienation of hind tires Is again re ported rampant In the rural areas. ' The baseball season opens Sunday. This summer If the umpire makes a bum guess, he will not be called one of the DeAutremont Boys. President Roowvelt has settled about everything, but has yet to make the Jackson County Democracy agree on a Republican postmaster. A former member of the local Righteousness Trust returned Tues. In a 4d, that came over on the May flower. Among the convicts who escaped from the Kansas state prison, was one, with only 88 years of a 100 year sentence left to serve. The Prince of Wales has consented to become a patron of the Interna tional Ball, under the auspices of the League of Nations Union, to be held In London shortly. After i chemical i long decline Germany's Industry Is Improving. A Gigantic Fraud TTHE fact that J. P. Morgan for two years paid no income tax, caused a great sensation; but as far as we have observed, the most significant factor in that admission has been over looked. Failure to pay an income tax has been attributed solely to the capital-loss offset, and congress is now working to eliminate that offset. This is a move in the right direction. But how about tax exempt securities t It is a well known fact that practically all very wealthy men, have tremendous investments in muncipal and state bonds which are tax exempt, With no capital losses it would be quite possible for a man with an income of huge proportions, to escape the federal in come tax entirely. Why doesn't the senate committee find out the Morgan holdings in such securities t And determine the holdings of other multi-millionaires. The total sum would no doubt be startling. BVIOUSLT such a situation is all wrong. The 16th amend- ment to the constitution, gives oongress the power to tax "incomes from whatever sources derived." That seems perfectly clear to the present writer. Incomes from state and municipal bonds certainly come under this classification. Why then are they exempted t The answer usually is because of a decision of the supreme court. But according to our information the supreme court has never ruled on the amendment but only on the enabling act, passed by the congress. And we are told that if this act were changed to contain the above provision from the constitu tion, the exemption of any income-bearing securities, would be ruled out. rHBTHEE or not this is true, the effort would be worth t.hfl ffrinl. Artrl if nimh tsr ftTftmntion nhnnlrl ha HUHtained. another constitutional amendment could be passed to reverse it. This much is certain. Allowing investors to escape the in come tax, by putting their money into interestbearing, but tax- exempt securities, is nothing less than a gigantic fraud, and every consideration of justice and fair play, demands that this special privilege bo denied. How It Hurts! rPHB big boys in big business are beginning to see that the new deal really means a NEW deal. This fact is being forced upon them, by being hit where it hurts in the pocket book. Congress is determined to sanction no financial assistance to the large corporations, which continue to pay exorbitant salaries to their high executives. As most of the large corporations, particularly the railroads and insurance companies, want assistance, this regulation is beginning to open the big boys' eyes. The insurance eompanies have been particularly prodigal in this regard. While other corporations have been slashing over head and reducing salaries right and loft, the big insurance companies have been increasing both. In the past three years for example, T. L. Parkinson of the Equitable Life has had his salary raised from $75,000 a year to $100,000; D. F. Huston of Mutual Life from $100,000 to $125,000; A. Buckner of the New York Life the same; while F. H. Ecker of the Metropolitan Life has had his annual stipend raised from $175,000 in 1929, to $200,000 in 1931 1 'T'HERE is now a movement on in the Lower House to reduce maximum salaries in corporations seeking federal financial aid to $17,500 a year. Small wonder there is a howl from the high priced executives whioh can be heard from Wall Street to the Bronx. Imagine being dropped from $200,000 to $17,500 a year I But while this radical reduction may not be achieved, there is no doubt that the day of exorbitant salaries in large public service corporations is over. And such reductions aro sound. A company that can't finance itself, and demands aid from the tax payers of the country, has no right to be increasing salaries and overhead, which is a burden, that the same taxpayers, as patrons of these large corporations, must pay. Facilitating Pear Exports A BILL was recently passed in the House of Representatives which Rhrtiild infrerear. local fruit. DTOWAra. The measure is designed to facilitate the export of apples and pears to foreign countries, by standardizing the pack. Under the provisions of this bill, all export shipments will be inspected by the Department of Agriculture, and require a certificate Bhowing that the shipment not only meets established U. S. grades, but the requirements of the country to which it is shipped. At the coming economio congress in London, an effort will be made to reach an agreement with foreign nations, particu larly England and Franoe, that an OK by this country will be accepted by the country to which the shipment is made thus eliminating any red tape, or subsequent inspections on the other side. In other words a shipment of pears and apples, that passes U. S. inspection will be accepted, as a matter of course, at its estination. A vigorous effort will also be made at this conference to lower the tariffs and restrictions against American fruit, by the various countries of Europe, particularly England and its dominions. So the deliberations of the London conference promise to ave a genuine and very practical interest to the pear erowers of this community.

A glass of 3.3 beer (one-half pint) ylelda approximately 130 cal ories If we assume all the alcohol Is oxidized and utilized as fuel, An equal quan tity of milk ylelda approxi mately 160 cal ories, and the utilization of aU the nutritive fuel material milk la -unques tioned. A person who tskes a pint of milk, or even glass of milk dally m addition his or her regular meals say as bedtime snack or a mid-afternoon lunch, may expect to gain nearly two pounds monthly. If the same person takes a pint .of Jeer or even a glass of beer dally In addition to regular meals, he or she may expect to gain a pound a month. A chemist who made analyses back In 1916 gave these figures for milk and beer: Milk Beer 4.36 6 Carbyhydrate (sugar) Protein (nitrogenous material) Mineral matter Alcohol Fat 8.36 0.6 0.707. 0.20 none 3.76 4.06 none Water 87.60 90 In a glass (8 ounces) of beer of 3.3 alcohollo strength there Is ap proximately one-fourth of an ounce of alcohol. Thla quantity of alcohol, If oxidized In the body, ylelda 68 calories. In the same quantity of milk there la approximately one- third of an ounce of fat, and this yields more than 90 calories. Weight for weight fat contains more heat or energy units, is a better fuel, than alcohol. A gram of alcohol ylelda 7.3 calories; a gram of fat yields 9.4 calories. Perhaps Individuals vary In their capaclty to oxidize and use aa en ergy or fuel the alcohol In beer or other alcohollo beverage. I don't mow, but I believe a pint of beer a day la aa much as any ordinary per son can consume without exceeding nis capacity to use the alcohol food, for energy or for heat. One thing Is as certain scientifically as It Is obvious to common sense when anyone takes enough alcohol to give an alcohollo odor on the breath he haa taken more than he can profit ably utilize. As soon aa the limit of the Individual's capacity to metabol ize the alcohol la exceeded, the In dividual Is Intoxicated. Remember, are speaking In scientific terms. and not In the popular parlance. intoxication with alcohol, in a drink or two of beer, wine or liquor, invariably retards the reaction time. It makes tbe Intoxicated Individual, say, two-flftha of a second slower In his reaction to any stimulus, warn ing or signal. Thla foot explains a great many accidents which might be avoided by prompt reaotlon to the warning or signal of danger. waume is the best time to have your bottle of beer If you like beer better than milk, and rye bread and cheese or pretzels or a sandwich go very well with the beer, they tell me.

Please tell me about goat's milk. (Miss M. C.l Answer Why go to another cll- mato? So far as the records show your recovery Is as sure here at home It Is In any other climate U vou (1) have a good doctor and (3) al ways follow his advice and nobodv's else. Ooat's milk Is fins If vou can afford It or better, keep a goat, but ahould not advise you to nav more for goat's milk than you have to pay for cow's milk. Goats are almost Immune to tuberculosis. Hence mat's milk Is less likely to contain tu- bercle bacilli than la cow's milk. Any family with a bit of yard or roadside where a tethered animal may graze, is lucay to nave a goat, for the two or three quarts of milk she gives dally. , Whitfield's Ringworm Ointment Will you kindly print again the recipe for the salve for foot Itch . . .
