UP TO COMPTROLLER
County Oommlsuloner Rlph Bil
ling., returned yesterday from Eugene,
where he attended the meeting Fri
day, called for consideration of de
velopment In the O. and C. land
(rant.
Report wer made by Judge Moses
of Benton county and Guy Gordon,
dletrlct attorney of Douglas, who re
cently returned from Washington, D.
C.
The report stated that the aup-
port of both senators and of Cong
reasman James T. Matt was procured
and that the matter now rests with
the comptroller, General Mccarl,
whose decision Is awaited.
Predicting improved business eon
dltlons, as reflected In Increased sales
of tourists tickets, J. A. Ormandy,
passenger traffic agent of the South
ern Pacific lines, was in Medford Fri
day. Conditions are very encouraging
this summer. Mr. Ormandy stated,
announcing that the railroad la en
joying an increased business.
Tourist car and coach fare rates,
recently adopted, ht stated are creat
ing much new patronage and many
poepl at going to the World fan.
The Will
PRODUCTION hag increaed. Priceg have increased. But
buying power hasn't and employment hadn't at least not
in anything near the tame proportion.
The effort of the government, in the present NBA drive, is
to increase employment by reducing working hours, and increase
buying power by increasing wages, whioh merely means re.
storing economic health to Uncle Sam. This MUST BE DONE
to win the war against the worst depression this country has
ever known.
These increases, in any given
fact the Mail Tribune haa
schedule for over a year, and no
southern Oregon have been, also.
Moreover, in all casea where the proposed blanket code
would work a hardship, exceptions will be made no unnecessary
hardships will be enforced or improper sacrifices demanded.
a a a a a
IIOWEVEB, it is SUPREMELY NECESSARY that the
country aa a whole should fall in line behind the govern
ment at this time, that support should be enthusiastic and
universal, and toward this end we are sure Medford and South
ern Oregon, will, as usual, take
the coast.
. Most of the opposition will
is important therefore, that proper speakers be engaged to
explain the details to the people.
Toward this end the Mail Tribune gladly offers its news
columns free to any 'authorized publicity agency, and has no
doubt, all other newspapers in this part of the state will do
the same.
This is no ballyhoo stunt. It is a serjoua and determined
effort to end the depression and end it now. It can only be
ended by increasing the buying power, which can only be done
by putting more people to work, and paying them all, not high
wages, but LIVING wages.
It is up to every good citizen not only from patriotic motives,
but from the standpoint of self interest to do his bit, in this
direction.
Is California Dumb?
X'lIE California legislature adopts a two and a half per cent
sales tax. The measure carries no referendum clause. The
voters had previously authorized the legislature to devise such
revenue laws as it could, to meet the situation.
There seems to be no fuss about it in California. There is
no weeping, no wailing, no gnashing of teeth. There is no
attempt to cruoify memberg of the legislature who voted for it,
no reproachful publication of their names aa horrible examples.
If any demagogio newspapers or self-seeking politicians sought
to curry favor for themselves by class appeals against the sales
tax, they did not succeed. ,
The sales tax issue is water over the dam in Oregon now,
but if the sales tax at the modest rate of two per cent was to
have been such a terribly wiok'ed and harmful thing for Oregon,
how can it be that California accepts it with equanimity at a
higher ratet Oregonian.
The Case of Mr. Goss
SPEAKING in Willson park Sunday, 0. H. Goss, agitator for
the "unemployed council" out on bond after being con
victed for vagrancy in justice court for the jobless demonstra
tion staged on the oourt house lawn, villified and abused mom
bers of the county court and the relief administration, declared
the district attorney a "liar paid to lie," attacked the members
of the jury that convioted him and in other ways comported
himself true to form.- He announced another "hunger maroh"
on the capitol in August.
All of this is orthodox communist propaganda to attract at
tention, secure head lines, pose for martyrdom to promote the
cause. The real objectives in fomenting discontent and turmoil
among the unemployed are set forth in a circular printed in rd
ink recently distributed here by the "Communist party of
America:"
Fellow Workers We have pointed out many time (and wa are)
going to continue repeating It) that tha only solution to thla whole
mesa la for you to take, by force) of arms, tha mines, the mllla, the
factorlea, the forma, railroad, steamship lines In abort, all meana
of production and dlatrlbutlon and run these things In the Interest
of the workers. JUST THI 8AVIK AA THE WORKERS ARI DOING
IN SOVIET RUSSIA. NOW, ALL TOGETHER: DOWH WITH A
SYSTEM THAT MAKES THIEVES AND LIARS AND MURDERERS
OUT OF THE PEOPLE. DOWN WITH A SYSTEM THAT PAYS
MILLIONS OF DOLLARS TO POLITICIANS WHILE MILLIONS OF
WORKERS ARE STARVING, DOWN WITH A GOVERNMENT THAT
PROMISES BONUSES AND ALL THEY OIVE IS BONES. DOWN
WITH CAPITALISM. ON WITH REVOLUTION.
It ia too bad that Messrs. Ferrar, Goes and their ilk cannot
be sent to Russia to experience the "dictatorship of the prole
tariat" which would put them to work, and hard work at that,
something they haven't done in a long time. And any criticism
of the government would mean either being shot at sunrise or
exile to the mines and forests of Siberia. The Soviet stands no
nonsense from agitators. Thev starve in silence. Salcra Capitol

HERE IS A DEPLOB
A young wouud wrltei from an
eastern college town:

upon a woman 'a

danger to the
heart In walking

phony, climbing
bills, climbing
stairs, swimming,
bowling, tennis?
One of our group says that after
a certain age a woman should not
exert herself physically. Another
says her heart pounds terribly If
she does the setting up exercUws.
Another cannot swim more than a
few strokes before she la exhausted.
But one of the oldest In the group
declares she Intends to keep on doing
al) these things till old age comes.
Those In the group are from 35
to 35 years of age.
Norm&Uly a woman reaches her
perfection, physically and In every
other respect, at the age of 35 to 38
years.
If a child could choose his mother
this Is the age when a normal wo
man la most capable to be a mother.
We are speaking of normal women.
That Is, healthy Individuals. It may
be that the girl in this group who
says her heart pounds terrible If she
does some simple exercises, such as
those In the Last Brady Symphony,
has spmethlng wrong with her. Be
ing a college woman she Is probably
pretty dumb about herself. Like most
college graduates she doesn't know
enough to have a health examination
by her own choice of physicians for
her own assurance. She gets such
expert opinion or advice only when
some insurance company or some
prospective employer desires to know
what her physical status la. ' And
then she gets It only If the examiner
pleases to give It to her.
The girl who cannot swim more
than a few strokes before she be
comes exhausted may be a novice not
yet sufficiently skilled In the art of
swimming to know how to conserve
:ier energy and take It easy, or again
she, too, may have some Insidious j
defect which diminishes her capacity
for effort or even makes effort dang
erous. Who can tell but the physic
ian who examines the girl?

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Health for Women

Answer Yes, Dr.'Clelia Duel Moan

every woman, particularly the
"weak" ones.
Hnrness

credulous.
Pepper
Is Cheyenne pepper injurious? I

uepper for years. I fear I "have a
fnorbld craving for It. I am a middle
aged woman, obeM and with little
strength. ("Red Pepper").
Answer It Irritates the stomach
and Intestine and the kidneys thru
which pepper Is excreted from the
system. There Is a fleeting general
stimulation which probably accounts
for the craving or drug habit. Exoess
of condiment may cause one to eat
more than the body needs that
would produce flabby obesity In time.
