Tomorrow is Independence Day, and la widely known a the "Sane Fourth." Its aanlty will, however, be determined by the nature and num ber of events as engineered by hu man. It Is getting ao the people have no Independence. Take the ease of the paranoiac and patriot, who wu likened to Christ, while try ing to act like Capone. And many oratorical boodluma are suffering (from the hallucination they are Bol ahevlkls, and would rather hate than be happy, and. are always exhausted from a. futile effort to think, i The latest tragedy on the highway has as one of 1U principals, a youth who wan only paroled, or severely lapped on the wrist by the lsw four times ere he succeeded In his life's ambition of being Indefinitely Im pounded In the penitentiary. Wo doubt he wu a good boy, until he became a bad boy. No doubt la due time the tender-hear tod public will start sobbing over tht fate lie show ered on himself, and forget the vic tim, who perlahed before his time. Bicycling continues to grip the Older Girls, Irrespective of heft, years, or havoc of the Depression.

MORE EFFICIENCY ("The Last Phase") That waa built by a man named Anderson, back In the days of Brlghtm Young. It was Ander son's Idea to have visitors In our town go up there and use It as a lookout across the Great Bs.lt Lake valley. He Intended to charge a toll for the privilege and thus be among the earliest to exploit our scenic world ore. But the first prospective customers to come along discovered they could sea across the valley Just as well from the foot of the tower. Thomas Farlow. the Lake Creek rattteman, towned Saturday and feasted on a beefsteak. Thomas Is a farmer who has managed to keep hie head above water and his farm, be cause he early learned he could get jio constructive plowing done around ithe Bill Gore corner, and always pur sued agriculture around the farm, instead of around the courthouse. t Fashion has decreed that the iq. toed shoe will return for men's wear. The sq.-toed shoe Is a trifle tardy, tout very effective In administering a swift kick where It will do the most Good. Many of the males have started becoming conspicuous In lee cream suits and white trousers, and expos ing their suspenders to the gase of the multitude. Nothing looks any hotter than a man who thinks he Is looking cool. The bull-goring season Is about over In the country, for both the bovine and the politicians. Now the women folks will have their Inning, spilling hot strawberry preserves on 'heir fingers and forearm. THE TRITn non IF Married Miss Sylvia Brown and James Poll Is, last Saturday at the parsonage of Rev. Gordon. The bride It one of those spineless females who doesn't know any more about work than an oyster and never wiggled a dish-rag more than three times In her sweet life. The Lord knows she's no beauty, and she has a gait like a duck. The groom Is an up-to-date loafer. He has been living with the old folks at home all hi life and la not worth gunpowder to blow him tip. The entire community sympa thizes with their lack of brains In pulling off this matrimonial stunt: It's their affair the rest of us should worry. Parents should feel grateful that these two freaks were mutually attracted, for by this only one family Is ruined. However the prospects are that they will have a hard lire. (Unearthed by JKF.

Just Another Murder- That's All ANOTHER murder cold blooded and wauton in Southern Oregon. One naturally inquire what ii the matter with this section of the state t The answer is nothing, at least nothing that ii not the mat ter with the country at large. Southern Oregon ia merely suffering its SHARE of t crime wave which is nation wide. ..... OUR two recent murders had one striking feature in common. They were not committed in the heat of passion, they were deliberate, cold blooded, and from the standpoint of rational action NEEDLESS.' The shocking feature of both was that neither was neces sary, all decent, right thinking citizens ask why WHY was an unoffending human life snuffed out, when all the officer of the law was doing, was his duty all that he asked was that if there had been a violation of law, it be cleared up. . . . . rPIIE answer is, that this "clearing up" is precisely what the individuals concerned refused to allow. They were willing to add murder, to whatever other minor crimes they had com mitted, to avoid such a personal INCONVENIENCE 1 "Inconvenience" may not appear the proper term, at first blush. And yet we believe careful analysis will establish its general validity. Officers Prescott and Baucom were shot down in cold blood, primurily because they dared to interfere with individual who had become outlaws individuals who deliberately placed themselves ABOVE the law, and were not to be thwarted, in that determination. If they had to kill to gain their IMME DIATE ends, they would kill with a little compunction or re morse, as if called upon to run over a rabbit, that lay in their path. A murder or twof Why, it's all in the day's work! T'S this feature, tile perfectly wanton, casual fashion, in which unoffending citizens and peace officers are shot down thnt has so shocked the people of Southern Oregon, and led them to wonder if there isn't something essentially wrong and abnormal about this section of the country. But if one will take the trouble to analyze the crime wave, throughout the country, it will be found that this characteristic is not peculiar to locul crime, but ia found in violent crime from one end of the land to the other. Some outlaw is offended t Why he shoots the offender, down. Some business doesn't obey the order, of the gang, the business is bombed, the proprietor shot down, by machine-gun fire. Slurderf WHAT'S murder! In the world of crime, it's more routine. Moreover it's the most efficient way to destroy evidence, the shortest route to escape, and if the murderer is caught it's about a ten to one shot be will never hang for it. 'T'llIS ia the oriminal code, the established practice of the underworld, In the larger cities such murders are taken as a matter of course, the people have become accustomed to them. Out in the wido onen snaee we Imven't w urn still shocked, uncomprehending, we ing to, wlien such tilings can happen. ,, Well they have been happeuing for many years. The crime wave has been running along in high, for over a decade. It only reached this part of the oountry a little late, THAT'S ALL I What s to Be Done About It? VITELL what are we going to do about itt We have previ "V 01ISy stated in this column one thing we believe should be done about it. We believe the government should take a hand in putting down the crime wave, aid the states, place the tremendous power of the government behind law enforce ment, declare war on the underworld and organized crime, and carry on that war to a finish. We also believe there should be a radical change in our crim inal procedure. Instead of having all legal practice favor the criminul, tie the.hamla of the state, emphasis should be placed upon bringing the criminal to prompt and certain justice, give the law-abiding people for once a square deal. Criminal lawyers who openly resort to perjury, jury fixing and every trick of the profession to free the guilty should no longer receive the protection of their profession, but should be placed whore they belong with other criminals, in jail. TNLESS radical action is taken soon, if we as a people con tintie to just muddle along, then the crime wave will go on and on, until nowhere in this country, will either property or life be secure. Then there will be only one outcome either martini law, or a revival of the vigilante system. We refuse to believe the American people have fallen as low as that that their capacity for effective law enforcement and successful self-government, has so declined, that they must go back to a system only justified by the confusion aud atavistic tendencies of pioneer daya I State Police Score Again liriTHIN three hours after the killing of State Toliceman Burrell Baucom on the Tacifia highway at Sexton moun tain (ne ar Grants Tass), Baucom 'a fellow-officei-s in the state service had his alleged murderers under arrest. Only a week ago, the state police did a beautiful piece of work in running down the bandit who held up the Aumsville bauk. The state police system has more than justified itself by efficient work. Jt has proved the contention that a atate-wide, unified system of policing is the only effective machinery against the modern motorized crook. Chief Charles Tray has built up a force which ia a credit to the state. In their dealings with citizens, the officers almost without exception, have shown themselves tactful and considerate. They are "poison" to crooks. (Eugene Register Guards Editorial Comment CALIFORNIA IN OltECiON. Tbr lll t ftw of iu.

The appendix ha an abundance of lymphoid tissue around Its base, tis sue like the structure of the tonsils. This ttct has led s o n e physicians to believe that the appendix, at least in children, may have a lym phatic function like that of the tonsils In early life. Especially the function of guarding against the entrance of Infections. The round cells of lymphoid tissue probably serve to at tack and destroy Invading germs, much as do the famous phagocytes or white blood corpuscles. The lym phoid cells can serve this useful pur pose only If they are normal. When the lymphoid tissue Is damaged by Infection It can no longer perform Its protective function. But this does not mean that ve should attempt to remove the entire tonsil, for Instance, when there Is a focus of Infection, a aeptlo focus, a small abscess In it. More and more thinking physicians are getting away from the old atti tude of radical removal of the tonsils. The happy result gained from the simple drainage or disinfection or sterilizing of the septic focus In the tonsil, by the modern diathermy or electro-coagulation method, has con vinced many good physicians that th older radical view was unjustified. Be sides radical surgery subjected many patients to unwarranted risks. Dr. B. Bperk presents In Wiener kllnlsche Wochenschrlft (Vienna, Mar. 17, '33) conclusions he has drawn from hla studies and researches on the appendix. He thinks the development of the lymphoid tissue of the appen dix depends on the contact with the Intestinal contents and the duration of the retention of these contents. He regards the character of the diet as Important. The character of the diet largely control the bacterial flora of the Intestinal canal, that Is, It de termines what types of germs shall predominate. Thus a diet that Is largely vegeta rian tends to promote more raptd passage of the residues through the Intestine, whereas a diet that Includes much protein, particularly meat, fa vors slower passage of the residue through the canal. Dr. Bperk says persons who eat a Stood dsal of meat require compare, tlvely more physical activity, for that favors a more rapid passage of the It Is scarcely less than a shame, ao urgent was their vaeatlotial mission to Alaska, that the Californlana did not have time white here to Inspect Crater lake national park in Oregon, the Josephine caves, In Oregon too, and Mount Hood, also In Oregon, each and all widely celebrated, in the casual pictorial press as California properties that will, when and If the next real estate boom occurs, be par titioned Into choice residential lota convenient to Los Angeles or San Francisco. On the return trip, how ever, there can be no excuse for ne glecting an obligation so obvious and Inspiring. We don't mind it. It la true that some years ago, when our scenery first waa misappropriated to the renown of California, we used to wave our arms and threaten reprisal. But you can become used to anything. Each season, too, sees more and more California tourists entering Oregon to view for themselves those marvels that have been attributed to their own fortunate state.

To the Editor: Tour Sunday editorial entitled "Prlmo the Big Prime," to me, sounds like a case of very sour grapes. Doea the fact that Camera was dis covered in a circus, performing feats of strength, lessen him any In the eyes of the editorial staff of the Med ford Mall Tribune? It seems to me that regardless of where a fighter re ceives hla early training, whether It was In a circus, In the mines of Colo rado, in the wilds of South America or In the U. S. navy, should by no means be a handicap to htm If he Is capable of being the world's heavy weight boxing champion, a title that every ham 'and agger In the heavy weight division longs for. Can you name any ports that have not become more or lees commercial ised In the last few years? How about football, baseball, basketball, golf and even now tt Is bridge and I am under the Impression that rule governing the sire of heavyweight fighters have yet to be added to the list. A few years ago, Med ford high had a foot ball team that compared favorably In weight and slsa to moat college elevens on the coast that year and when they crashed through the much smaller and lighter lines of competi tive high schools to the tuna of over whelming scores and the state cham pionship, I don't recall the reading of anything In your editorial column at that time to the effect of matching football teams, according to sire and weights. This Is all In the game, and Is expected. In this last fight, the old saytnc of "the bigger they ara, the barter they fall" sure took one on the vhtn and Sharkey's gentle boasting via the Art Shires route, about what he would do to Camera on the night of June 30. turned out to be Just mora Aharkey talk and It la very ap parent that someone connected with your editorial staff U much put out by this fact. Don't think for a minute that 1 am pleased to see a foreigner w kth heavyweight title from an Ameri can, for suwH la not the case and 1 m i JSA$ residues and consequently less protein putrefaction. He thinks that too much protein, especially meat, in the diet, along with Insufficient physical activity, and the constipation that commonly goes with these conditions. Is a factor of appendicitis, but not the only factor. He does not advocate vegetarianism, but he doea consider a diet with a high meat content Inad visable for persons with sedentary oc cupations. A pretty good rule is to insist on having not less than three vegetables (including one relish or raw vegetable of fame kind) with every helping of meat one eats. It should not be understood from this that meat la "constipating." It Isn't. No food Is constipating. It Just Isn't aa laxative aa vegetables, greens and the like. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS. Eating Halt. I eat more salt than any one else X know. Is It harmful to my health In any way? Miss K. A. Answer Too much salt will cause first flabby or logy overweight, and later dropsy. Including all the salt naturally present In meat and that added In cooking or at table, probably a teaspoonful a day Is not excessive. Don't Take Food Too Seriously. I can't seem to get the rights of this acid food business . . . R. M. J. Answer Well, don't let it worry you. Who does and anyway why hould he? Send a dime and a stamp ed envelope bearing your address, for the booklet "Guide to Right Eating." Pin Worms, It Is easy for a mother to know whether her child has pinworms and easy to get rid of them. My child walked in his sleep, but after I dis covered he had pinworms and got rid of about 30. he had no further trou ble. Let the mother take the child on her lap and hold the fundament open by pressing away with her hand at either side the worms will crawl out and may be caught in paper and burned. The first evening there were about 30. the second 15, and after that there may be no more than per haps one or two etrsgglers. Mrs. L. M. LeP. Answer Thank you. I hope other mothers who find such a simple treatment effective or Ineffective will report their experience. (Copyright, 1933. John F. Dille Co.) Ed Note: Rcaden wishing to communicate with Dr. Brady should send letters direct to Or. Will la in Brady, M. U., 265 El Ca mlno, Beverly HUU, Calif. do not believe that the heavyweight crown will carry the odor of garlic but a very short time. But I do be lieve that Camera won the title fair and square and whether he was a cir cus freak or a deck swabber for Uncle Sam, It makes no difference to the fight fans who keep in bread and butter, or is It (Dago red and over- slued shoes), as long as he can take 'em on the chin and packs the pay-off puncn and it sure looks like he can do both in a big way. so don't you think It Is only fair to give Camera a break and lay off. And (ay now, come clean, how much did you lose on Sharkey? Tours for bigger and better upper- cuts.

He elected over the combined opposi tion of the Democratic organisation and the Democratic leader of the sen ate. None of the Investigators want him In their states If they can keep him out. There Is a better reason why the Investigation will not be so hot from now on. It hsa no money. The com mittee conveniently forgot to get any while congress was In session. Now It cannot get any until next January. The Long Investigation was ended for all practical purpoaea when the in vestlgatora bottled up the Howell resolution to appropriate (25,000 for continuing the Inquiry. Ordinarily such resolutions go to the senate com mittee on audit and control. An exception was made In this case. The resolution was side-tracked to the committee conducting the Inves tigation. That was last February. It Is atlll there today, gathering dust-and obscurity. Long'a big bark has been ao loud here that no one has csred to find out in a practical way whether there la any bite behind It. Once he told a group of senators In the cloakroom: The lnvestlgstors hsd Just learned that a certain nationally circulated magazine waa about to open a cam. palgn of ridicule against their near. ly forgotten farce. They beat the magazine to the bar of public opin ion by a few daya. The magazine was prevented from charging that Long had squelched the Investigation. The committee thereby averted pub lic criticism. Surface facts now Indicate It Is go ing ahead strongly. Sub-surfaos ones do not. The real truth appears to be that Huey hae the Indian sign on nearly everyone In Washington. That goes Tor Republicans aa well as Democrats. The two Republican members of the investigating committee have ahown no eagerness to hustle things along. One has not attended a public ses sion of the committee to this dsy. A msnufacturlng firm he la connected with now holds some Louisiana scrip on which It hopes to collect. There seems to be no good reason fo thla terror that Huey has spread among the politicians. The excuse they whisper around among themselves Is that he Is very populsr with the soldier vote out In the country. He freely threatens to go Into esch of the Investigator's nome states snd arouse this class of votes.
