This is, that in this effort to break the back of the depres sion, there is no intention on the part of the administration to bring hardships upon anyone. The purpose of the Recovery by limiting working hours; and increase buying power by in creasing wages. Certain minimum working days are1 therefore, stipulated; and certain minimum wages also. But in any given case where an employer, can neither reduce the working day, nor increase ruptcy, in other words where pie any given business, that N. R. A. committee, and if his claim is based upon the facts, an exception will be made in his case. ' But his claim must be bona fuges will be tolerated. DECENTLY many complaints have drifted into this office. not for publication the complainers want nothing said about it but they are sore, and regard the N. R. A. as a lot of hooey anyway. Our advice to them has been to present their case to the local N. R. A. committee, instead of this, or any other, news paper. The N. R. A. drive is an EXPERIMENT. Its main purpose is sound, its objective not only desirable, but necessary. We believe a vast majority of the people of this community and the country at large, are behind it, and willing to do every thing possible to make it a success. Those who believe otherwise, or those who have complaints to make should take them to HEADQUARTERS, which in this case is the local committee, instead of mulling over them in secret, or condemning the N. R. A. in private conversation. We repeat the purpose of the N. R. A. is to HELP the country, not INJURE it; to REDUCE suffering, not IN CREASE it. In any instance where such purposes are NOT served, we know, the powers that be will do everything in their power to correct the situation. I EGITIMATE complaints should therefore be aired, not suppressed; criticisms should be voiced before the proper authorities, not hidden and allowed to ferment. This entire New Deal is based upon a process of trial and error. If any certain provision is wrong, works a genuine hardship, the ad ministration is only too eager to correct it. . In fact the citizen who has a real grievance, and promptly and frankly reports it to the proper authorities ; is a far better patriot in this crisis, than the citizen who secretly resents the entire plan, and either through fear, or a mistaken sense of loyalty, says nothing, and therefore DOES nothingeither to correct the imperfections lie they do not, in reality,, exist. Swift Vs. Severe Punishment T IS popular now to cry for the blood of kidnapers. Crack their cowardly necks I 'Fair enough 1 But use the old bean and roflect that stricter laws, federal police and state police desirable way to attack. Kidnaping is only one of the and nurture and protect in the And it is not so much the severity of punishment as the cer tainty of it that discourages crimo. If we want to get down to lawyers and courts and say something like this, and mean it: "Gentlemon, you have built most technically-constipated, most justice-thwarting courts un der the shining sun. Clean them up. Make justice as simple, swift, Biire and honest as in Great Britain. That's your job." And then why not turn to papers and Bay to them i "Gentlemen, Btop making glorifying lawyers who outwit spew over the mothers of professional criminals and moral per verts and if you must sob throw is not safe so long as the criminal is abroad. Cut all wires into the editorial room from the business office and the politi cal leaders and start reporting all court actions fairly and honestly." The safety whi'' we want ropes around some criminal necks and garlands around others. Safety is allied to simple, swift, Press. Oregon Voters Comment on Men In Jackson County Public Affairs (Oregon Voter) Judas Sklpworth was so tolerant and sympathetic In trying the ballot destroyers that he wss suspected of Intent to kiss the defendants on both cheeks, slap their wrists and send them home to sin no more. Those who knew the Judge well knew that he waa pursuing his long-established policy of resolving doubtful points of procedure In favor of the defendant whose reputation and liberty were at etake. Judge Bklp worta always has bent over back warda to avoid wrongful dlserlmln stlon against anyone under attack, apparently on the theory that gov ernment will survive anyhow, but that conviction of an Innocent man deprives him of that which cannot ever be restored. The social value of this attitude la clearly apparent. even to his excited critics,, now that the ballot trials have ended. Judge Sklpworth waa so exacting In pro tection of rights of accused men that now no one la likely to be able to upeet any of the convictions. There seems no room for public doubt thst the convicted are all guilty, that every consideration waa ahown for their rights, and that their trial waa fair In every way. This ts a far bel ter reault than If a severe Judge -er to deny consideration to men because tbey were under a cloud and thereby R.

Pacific Rural provoke resentment towards the court, create sympathy for the ao aused, and Jeopardies a verdlct under appeal. Having been so careful to ahow oonslderatlon to the. accused, we are the more ready to accord full weight to what Judge Sklpworth eald In pronouncing sentence on one of the culprits: "LaOleu Is no different from Judge Fehl. Both were In the affair. They were among the arch conspirators in the commission of a heinous and outrageous crime that filled all decent people with a sense of horror. They attempted to take Vie law Into their own handa which Is unpardonable and unthinkable." Karl Day. twice state representative, la appointed county Judge of Jackson county. An able man of tine In tegrity: valuable experience: well equipped for this office. He Is high ly respected throughout Jackson county.

William Brady, 46s El Camlno, Beverly Bills, CaL OLD-FASHIONED IRON 18 HARD TO BELIEVE A few months s0 we hsd a piece In this column about plain old-fash' loned Iron for pal week women. Not that there era Vy.... - j any pale women any more, out under the rouge and drug store tan some of 'em are still ss weak ss their grand mothers were when tbelr g r a n d m o there were advising Pinky A. Eating ham's 18.3 per cent "tonic" tor female frill ty. Ths old-fashioned Iron we recom mended as a good medicine for wom en with simple hypochromic snemla (hypochromic Is' medical Greek for lack of color or Insufficient hemo globin, the Iron-compound which gives blood Its color and serves as the carrier of oxygen to the body tissues) Is officially (In the United Ststes and British Pharmacopeias) called Iron and Ammonium Citrate, or sometimes Ferrlc-smmonlum Cit rate. When the anemic patient takes this medicine she should take enough. end not Just trifle with It. Not less than 10 or 15 grains at every dose, though we know the body needs to assimilate only about one-fourth of a grain of Iron a day. The good and sufficient reason for these seemingly lsrge doses of Iron was explained here June 11. The recipe I gave for sim ple hypochromic anemia Is as fol lows: , Dissolve an ounce of Iron and am monium citrate (that Is one Ingredi ent) In four ounces, of wster. Take a teaspoonful after each meal three times a day for two or three months. This Is neutral, will not Injure the teeth, and hss proved more effica cious thsn any expensive "orgsnlc" Iron medicine. Olrl or women with hypochromic anemia (men seldom have It) are weak, easily fatigued, short of breath, pale, have poor appetite, belch gas, have a ssnse of fullness In epigas trium and often complain of burning or soreness of the tongue and of brittle nails, dry, prematurely gray ing hair and dull, Inelastic skin. When the pale weak creature has taken this medicine six or eight weeks and begins to throw her weight about and talk back to her boss, If she discovers that her steady prog ress stops before she Is quite In top form, then It Is a good plan to add to the recipe one grain of copper sul phate this, Is have the druggist In clude one grain of copper sulphate (blue vitriol) In the four ounce Iron solution. But I warn husbands, fathers, brothers and boy friends to watch out, for when they go off the Iron standard onto the copper some times you cant hold 'em. I have been pained to receive a large number of complaints from readers whose druggists Inform them there Is no such combination pos ment he waa called by Attorney-General Van Winkle to handle this series of difficult esses. In his former day one of the leading members of the bar tu Oregon, noted for his force and anility, he covered himself with new laurels. His prodigious industry waa evidenced In the thorough pre paration of all these esses; his Judg ment waa demonstrated by the re serve with which he brought out evi dence aa the trials progressed, mass ing his principal witnesses against the main offenders; his ethics were proven by the care he exercised to avoid capitalizing prejudice ana leei Ing Into testimony and by the con sideration he extended to defendants and opposing counsel. Already one of Oregon's distinguished civil at torneys, be now takes his place as a fair and forceful prosecutor In one of t,he most notable series of cases In ths politico-criminal history of the West. Governor Meier Is given Just credit by Medford Msll-Trlbune, one of his leading political opponents, for hav ing supported the forces of law and order In the difficulties which beset Jackson county under the violent leadership of It lawless element by Banks and Fehl. "From the very outeet ho . . . aaw the picture as It was, nnd without a moment's hesi tation, and Indifferent to political sacrifices, gave his personal support and the support of the state . , . The rtght-thlnking and law-abiding people of Jackson county , , , are very giateful." GOL. SHREVE NRA Following close with local mer chant in their plsns to comply with NRA rules and regulations, local NBA organisation committeemen are for mulating definite publicity plan so that a comprehensive educational program may be carried to all per sons regardless of whether they are employers, employee, or consumers. Colonel Roy Shrev and T. B. Dan iels of the local NRA headquarters, ar ready now to start regular releas ed interesting pubuclty matter re signed to meet local Interest and In quiries. Colonel Shreve hs announced that hi neaker'a bureau, recommended by the NRA In Washlnton Is now about ready for It part in thla cam pain. These speakers, to bs announced In a few deya. win be presented reg ularly over the local KMET station giving short talk, and conducting a series of "question and answer" broadcast. Colonel Shreve will be the first at the local microphone when he Introduce the plan to the southern Oregon public. He will tell of the talks to follow, and ths opportunity of southern Oregon resident to writ sible, or thst they can't put up the medicine without knowing what Iron preparstlon is wsnted or how much of It or whether It means an ounce of Iron and an ounce of ammonium citrate or what. The trouble with the profession of pharmacy today Is there Is too much ham and eggs, bathing pants, groceries and hard ware cluttering up the shop. One old fashioned pharmacist sug gests that sandwich dispensers mas querading as druggists or pharmacists should be reported to the state board of pharmacy when they betray that they do not know what Iron and Ammonium Citrate Is. This pharma cist offers another good suggestion, namely, that If there la any objec tion to the taste of the solution Iron and ammonium citrate can be dispensed In capsules. QUESTIONS AND AN8WEK.9 Haccharln Being on restricted carbohydrate diet I use saccharin to sweeten my tea end coffee, from six to eight Va -grain tablets a day. It this amount harmful? What Injurious el. fects has saccharin on the body? (M. M.) Answer Saccharin Is a coal tar dc rlvatlve, chemically called benzosul' phlnld. It Is 300 times sweeter thsn sugar. One-half grain of saccharin Is equivalent to sbout a teaspoon. ful of sugar In sweetening. There Is little evidence that any harm la done by the use of small quantities of saccharin say up to 6 grains day. Rheum It Isn't I have made a remarkable recov ery from chronic arthritis that al. most totally disabled me.

But I owed you this expression of gratitude . . (F. L. R.) Answer Delighted to hear of your Improvement. I hope It may con tinue. Although we docs don't know what rheum It Is we can cure It Just the same. Readers who desire a copy of the booklet will please send a dime and a stamped envel ope and ask for the booklet no clipping will suffice. Breathe Low Sweet Harriet Would you send to this address your booklets on "Breathing Low" and "High Blood Pressure?" (D. H.) Answer I have no such booklets.

It was with such a parent the other early morning. Breathlessly he clutched her arm and inquired: "He's all right, not cross eyed or anything?" Nothing la so utterly desolate as a deserted theater surrendered to gloom and echo. Gene Buck and I dropped into one the other late afternoon. A woman with a dustpan was moving through the rows of seats and a coat less man at a piano was giving a tryout to a woman who, with a des perate gallantry, was singing a rather coy ballad. She sang one verse and asked ' If she should sing another.. "Thanks," said the pianist, "that will not benecessary." She walked off stiffly and in the half-light her cheeks seemed burning. I felt an odd little choke. While Fred Astaire knows precise ly what to do with his nimble feet, he has a terrible time with his hands. He doesn't know exactly what to do with them. First he shoves them In his trouser pockets, then In hts coat pockets, pats them front and back and afterwards with folded arms and a forefinger against his cheek strikes a familiar photograph gallery ahl there pose.

I fully agree. The real East, to me. Is Just that section, the Atlantic sea board from Cape May to Eastport, Main and a florlous section It Is. with ocean, lake and rivers that are useful a well a ornamental. During my temporary residence In Oregon, some 38 years, I always get a kick when someone aays: "We are going sack Esst to Montana this sum mer."

We hsve twenty five or thirty women that meet each week' to sew for the needy there. -,re we are vry much in need of all kinds of clothing snd material to make over In order to get a number of children ready for school.

We are all thankful to welcome back better times, but let us not for get that every winter whether in good times or poor there Is a certain amount of suffering and the Salva tion Army will be caUed upon to help relieve this condition; therefore we would appreciate any fruit or vege table that would help' us In this ef fort, as It Is a saving to the county tax roll. Just a auggestlon. Let every house wife prepare one or two more extra cans of vegetables or fruit while do ing their own canning, then call the Salvation Army, phone 858 and we will call for them.

"How About Pear Pickers," which has the situation well analyzed and 1 a concise statement of the local sit uation. ' Let us take a closer look at the orchard worker'a problem.. We will take for an example a well known corporation who have quite extensive holdings In ths valley. This year they are paying their steady help 3.00 per day for 9 hours, lc per day for compensation. The extra men for Irrigation, spraying, etc., who are laid off much of the time, receive but 30o per hour. For a thinning crew of about 40 men and boys for about 3 weeks, the wages were 81.50 per day. Now let us see how the pear pick er and his fsmlly enjoy themselves In ths- meantime on the part time low wage. Many of them will have spent their meager earnings for the bare necessities of life before the win ter, and there will still be a long Idle period ahead with rent to pay besides. One of the pleasures Mr. Pear Pick-' er will enjoy this winter will be to go to relief headquarters and sub mit to a long line of humiliating questions for the purpose of finding out whether he Is really deserving of relief before doling to him a few small packages necessary for the mere substenance of life. Now Just who are the people who live in the worst shacks, wear the shoddy clothes snd live on a meager aupply of the poorest food. The farmers are also to a great extent m the same condition. You will note thst the real producers, the workers and farmers, are the very ones who are suffering for the very necessities of which they have produced too much. Will - some student of economics come forward and explain why such a condition exist in this land of plenty. Also tell us Just whst the New Deal has done to right auch a situation. If it has been of any bene fit at all. PEAR PICKER, Central Point, Aug. 11. Name on file.
