Dry Repeal This Year?
A TWO-TO-ONE wet victory in Indiana, for the first time,
makes the repeal of the ISth amendment, in 1933, a possi
bility. A special drive for Indiana was made by the Dry forces, an
intensive campaign was conducted, with all the Prohibition
big shots on the firing line, yet the result was a wet landslide.
The striking feature of this landslide was the strong wet vote
in the rural districts.
If the drys could make no better showing in Indiana, then
there seems slight chance of their gaining any large northern
state, which leaves their only discernible hope in the solid south.
WERE it not for the financial situation particularly the
tax situation even with this advantage a wet victory
THIS YEAR would be improbable. For there are many states
where the legislatures will not meet until 1934, and the wets
need these states to gain the
Unless prohibition is repealed this year, however, not only
increased federal taxes, but a large assortment of nuisance
taxes will have to be imposed.
Such taxes will not be popular with the people, and conse
quently will not be popular
with congress. If prohibition
taxes would be unnecessary, the
internal revenue receipts on liquor at least that is the state
mcnt of U. S. Treasury officials.
SO WE will have the administration, pledged to prohibition
repeal, having an added incentive to secure repeal at the
earliest possible moment, and
the same way about it.
Here then lies the possibility
18th amendment before the year
the White House, with the support of the legislative branch of
the government.
If this pressure is exerted
realized; if it isn't, then repeal
least another year.
Revolution? Its Here
JUST as two or three years ago, any person maintaining the
ISth amendment would be repealed in 1933 would have
been put down aa crazy, so at the same time, anyone maintain
ing Big Business would be welcoming federal control the same
year, would have been dispatched to Salem.
Tot the former occurrence is possible; and the latter has
already come to passl Both "miracles" are direct products
of the depression.- Economic pressure has, in short, brought
about a peaceful, but far reaching revolution.
That time-honored slogan of Big Business, "every man for
himself and the devil take the hindmost" which in general
has held sway since the Civil War, has been thrown into the
discard nover to return. There are still certain die-hard Tories
perhaps J. P. Morgan is one of them who can't see this.
But they represent a decided minority. Big Business men as a
whole seo the handwriting on the wall, and are not onlyj-cady
for federal control, but welcome it.
What will this control amount to? Well, in brief, to
"planned industry" President Roosevelt clearly expressed the
fundamental idea when in his talk to the United States Chamber
of Commerce last month he said ;
"I ask that you have the vision to lay aside special and
selfish Interests, to think of and act for a well rounded national -recovery.
Each and all of you In your own units, and In your
own Industries, are but Integral parts of ft great whole, and
our national economy must be expressed In terms of the whole. ,
rather than of the unit."
This will mean an end to cut-throat competition, and the
survival of the fittest. It will mean uniform work days, uni
form wage scales, elimination of the sweat shop, a regulated
production, reduced incomes for the few, increased incomes for
the many. Not so many multi-millionaires; more men and
women with good homes in decent surroundings.
That in short is the "new deal". It is coming as sure as
the sun is going to. rise tomorrow. The good old days have
gone forever. The new days will not be so good for the
favored few; but they will be immeasurably better for the rank
and file.

CHILD HAS A MAJOR OPERATION.
A child six years of age appeared
robust, pink-cheeked and healthy. At
five she hud bad whooping cough, and
since that time
she had a spell
of coughing each
morning, which
kept up till she
cried and ended
In vomiting. The
rest of the time
she was In good
spirits. Two or
three physicians
whom the par
ents .consulted
advised removal
of the tonsils.
They urged that this be done before
she entered school.
A few days before the opening of
school in the autumn the child's
mother took her to the beet physic
Ian In the community. He said be
would do the operation In his office;
he had a few beds there for that
purpose. He assured the mother that
there was no danger, that children do
not die from tonsillectomy, and that
there was no need of taking the child
to a hospital ...
The doctor lied and he knows he
lied. But It la done. No matter
where tonsillectomy may be done, It
Is a major operation. Children or
adults may die from It. There Is al
ways a certain degree of risk Involved
Ln such an operation. This Is plain
truth and no physician can or will
deny It.
Well, the mother sat In an outer
room while the operation was under
way. That Is all right. It la bad
enough for daddy or Uncle Joe to
stand by; mother should not be a wit
ness.
Presently the nurse ran out and
called the Public Service Corporation
and asked that the resuscitation
squad be sent Immediately. Mother
rushed to the door and saw the
doctor working the child's arms . . ,
The doctor betrayed his incompe
tence there. There could be no good
reason why he should not turn the
child over to the prone position and
then apply prone -pressure resuscita
tion. That posture would have been
better from every standpoint, Work
ing the arms Is a futile gesture. Per
haps, had the Incompetent doctor
known how to resuscitate, or rather,
had there been no "resuscitation
squad" the doctor might havo known
how to resuscitate.
The doctor declared the child had
not died of hemorrhage, that he had
not administered too much ether, ln
fact he had given only half of the
quantity usually used In such an
operation, that the nurse had ad
ministered It under his supervision
and she had learned anesthetization

All that may be so. There Is Just
one fair criticism we can make, and
that Is the doctor's failure to provide
an lnhalator for the administration
of carboxygen (mixture of 93 per
cent oxygen and 7 per cent carbon

formed major operations under gen

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
Ay, There's the Rub.
In spite of your claim that mas
sage will not reduce superfluous flesh
I have had different experience. In
less than a month of dally massage
by my beautician I have had a reduc
tion of over two Inches In my waist
line . . . Mrs. W. J. P.
Answer I do not doubt that reduc
tion in weight and size may be
brought about by one thing or an
other while you are receiving such
massage. I merely assure you the mas
sage has nothing to do with It. Usu
ally the restriction In diet and the In
creased exercise or both bring about
the reduction which the victim as
cribes to massage.
Wearing Glnsscs.
Is there an advantage In wearing
rest glasses? I can see well and
clearly, but my eyes get very tired,
feel heavy and I have dark 'circles
under them . . . Miss C. J. O.
Answer A young person should
wear glawes only when her physician
advises It. The symptoms you men
tion do not Indicate any fault of
vision.
Blow, Children, Blow.
In a "Course of Study for the Ele
mentary Schools of Wisconsin" this
statement Is klven:
(4) Children should learn to
blow both nostrils at once, aa
blowing one at a time may force
Infection Into the ear passages.
Please give your opinion of this.
W. H.
Answer It Is all right, I think.
However, It Is all right to blow first
one nostril, then the other, too.
provided the blowing Is always gentle,
nover too forcible.

A Correction Is Made.
I am .asking you to make correc
tion regarding articles appearing lately
In your paper about the sale ol my
orchard property. The statement that
I received only viooo on the deal is
Incorrect.
In June. '29. I did sell my orchard
to Mr. Banks for $27,000. At that time
he made me a payment of sio.wu.
giving me mortgage on the property
for $17,000. interest payable semi-annually
$1000 was paid on mortgage.)
Last winter he told me, owing to
financial conditions he could not
meet back payments or carry out
contrast, but offered to turn the
property back to me If I so desired.
Owing to the conditions of the times
I thought this fair. Later h? did turn
It back to me. but I found It neces
sary to foreclose on the mortgage.

The Jackson County Civic league
held ft meeting ln the Federated
church at Central Point last night.
Several very interesting talks were
mode and samples of temperance
literature were studied and discussed.
It was brought out that at the
peak of liquor consumption the tax
was about 300 million dollars. For
every dollar the government got in
liquor taxes, the people had to spend
live dollars as the cost of drunken
ness, drink-made poverty and crime,
waste in industry, etc.
Dr. Charles Mayo and Dr. Arthur
D Bevln, formerly president of the
American Medical association, arc
quoted from one paper in a personal
letter as follows: . . . that every
prescription of alcoholic beverages la
nothing more or less than a bootleg
prescription, and Is a disgrace to the
great medical profession."

a three-cent stamp he thinks a little
Indignantly of the good old days
