The esteemed Roseburg News
' Bevlew has taken umbrage at the
Just as esteemed Portland Oregon l&n.
for editorially referring to hlUbUUea
a "sockleea firebrand of tbe moun
tains." which umbrage or no umbrage
la r well-turned phrase. The metro
politan dally was discussing forest
Urea, and their apparent Incendiary
origin, when tt turned the phrase so
well, and so neatly. The Douglas
Bounty newspaper mildly denies the
lack of hosiery, and the allegation
of arson In the timber.
There Is not much difference be
tween the aocklesa firebrands of the
mountains, and the pantless nudist
of the metropolis, who are reported
cavorting around a slough. Civiliza
tion Is shocked less by lack of socks,
than lack of pants. No gent Is sup
posed to run around without them,
but there seem to be some scoffing
at the statutes covering indecent ex
posure. In these ports most of the forest
fires have been attributed to light
ning, spontaneous combustion, or a
California tourist. The latter was
blamed, or Is blamed. If the confla
gration starts near a highway, Suspl-,
don baa been aroused because the
lightning and spontaneous combus
tion get In their deadly work, gener
ally in the period between the end
of haying and the opening of the
deer season. This Is Just a case of
natural phenomena coming In handy.
However, the phenomena has not
been so accommodating since the
. legislature duly provided that the
oat of fighting a forest fire on pri
vate land, should be assessed to the
Owner thereof.
The hillbilly Is a very likeable cuss,
nd will call himself a hillbilly, but
If you do so, it is at your own risk.
The hillbilly goes as craey over a
fool notion, like electric lights with
out cost to the taxpayer,' aa any city
dude. If you want to insult him,
refuse to ee-t meat or wet. your
Whistle, with him.
The Roaeburg paper Intimates that
tbe hillbilly Is not found outside the
Cumberland or the Ozarka, but one
does not need ft fine toothed comb
to find him In the Cascades or the
Blsklyous. They have autos, of a sort,
maybe, radios, gold sight on their
rifles, and dance on Saturday nights
till their shlrt-talla coma out. They
fear nothing but a city hunter. When
auch Invade their domain, they crawl
under the barn, and stay there. One
does not necessarily have to be a
hillbilly to exercise this bit of in
stinctive Judgment. They have no
confidence whatever In a towner with
s gun. Wall Street, or Andrew Mellon.
This deponent knoweth several who
are hillbillies, but knows enough not
to call them that. As a result of liv
ing In the silent hills, the hillbilly
oannot detail the slaying of a wood
pecker In lees than 300,000 words.
The hillbilly la blamed for lot of
things he does not do. The hellbllly
Sa something else. He retires to tbe
bills to think up ornery things to do
when he comes to town.

Scared by a Word
SOME people are terrified by words. A lubscriber visits this
office with the pronouncement that President Roosevelt's
NRA program is nothing but socialism.
As be uttered that dread word he appeared to feel that more
need not be said. " Socialism 1", visions of Earl Man and Rus
sian communism, such program would surely fail, in this land
of the free and the home of the brave.
We bave an idea many other people feel the same way about
the administration's New Deal. They don't like it, and the
word "socialism" iB an effective and simple way of disposing
of it.
This view merely emphasizes how much twisted thinking
there is abroad at the present time, particularly, regarding the
NRA and iis many collateral issues.
. .
'I'iir. NBA, of course, isn't socialism, at least not in the
Marxian sense. Neither is it Russian communism, or any
other "ism."
It is, in fact, something entirely new. Something originated
in this country and peculiar to it.
Socialism involves the elimination of private property, gov
ernment ownership and operation of capital and land. Commun
ism is a more general term, and includes socialism, its distin
guishing characteristic being common ownership of the agents
of production and equality in distribution. There are about as
many different forma of these two economic and social phuoso.
phies as there are different creeds in the Christian religion.
But President Roosevelt's New Deal, conforms to none of
them. What is it then J Well, essentially it is merely this :
The abandonment of a confused and planless business system
in this country; and the institution of an organized and planned
system.
That's all I
' k'nu old planless system has tragically failed. So a planned
A system is to be tried, and the government is determined
to do everything in its power to make it succeed.
In other words, what we call business, is not to be owned
or operated by the government, but it is to be regulated by the
government.
Under the New Deal, no business, large or small, will here
after be allowed to go its own sweet way, as it wishes, regard
less of consequences to its competitors or the country at large.
Business will no longer be a mad, rough and tumble scramble
for profits, with the devil taking the hindmost.
Each and every business will have to conform to certain
definite rules and restrictions, worked out as a part of a broad
national program. The orux of this program, will be the deter
mination to secure, not bigger and better profits, but a bigger
and better country.
Or to express it in another way, business, large and small,
is to be forced to assume a certain public responsibility, com
pelled to subordinate the mad desire for profits, to a certain
ideal of constructive social service.
In short, under the new program, business is no longer to be
concerned solely with making money; but is also to be con
cerned with making this country a better place in which to live
not for a favored few but for all.
-...
THAT'S the idea behind the New Deal. It ISN'T socialism.
It ISN'T communism. It is in fact a tyrically American
program, which if successful, will steer this country safely away
from the rocks of such destructive radicalism for many genera
tions to come.
Don t Rock the Boat
OUCH a revolutionary program can't be instituted without
considerable confusion and misunderstanding. Mnny people
are going to get the wrong idea and jump to conclusions which
are not justified. v
A rancher friend of ours, for example, came to this office
yesterday, much disturbed over the fact that one of his em
ployees, to whom he was paying the prevailing wage, demanded
an increase on the basis that the wage violated the letter and
spirit of the NRA. He demanded a 25 percent increase, and
said if this was not granted he would protest to the NRA com
mittee, etc., etc.
This rancher happens to be a very conscientious man,
absolutely honest, eager to support the president in every way,
and frankly stated he knew the wage he was payjng was low,
and he would gladly pay more if he could. But under the
circumstances be COULDN'T.
1JE operated last year at a terrifio loss. He was only able
to operate at all this year, by securing a federal R. F. C.
loan. He had at the present time no assurance as to what he
would receive for his fruit no certainty that even under his
present overhead, he could break even. He could therefore only
pay the low scale generally prevailing, regardless of what might
be said against him.
He asked what to do. Our advice was to see the local NRA
committee, and lay the matter before them.
.
TTHIS much is certain. Neither the letter nor spirit of NRA,
calls for hardship or needless sacrifice on the part of any
one, employer or employee.
ro one is EXPECTED to do the impossible. No employer is
hAPtorbD to pay a wage scale he can't afford, or comply
with a code which actually threatens bankruptcy.
Exceptions will be made in any individual and deserving
oase, we are sure. But the exceptions must be based upon the
faots. The government is not going to oountenanoe either
evasion or chiselling. It is going to help every individual who
can SHOW he is in need of it.
A S far as this particular rase is concerned there is as yet no
code adopted for goneral farm or ranch labor. The idea
that higher wages are going to be secured overnight, under the
plea of the NRA conformation, is simply hooey those who
think so, misunderstand the entire situation. The entire pro
gram is experimental, based upon a system of trial and error,
getting it in fiual shape, under the best circumstances, requires
time.
Everyone therefore should be given time. Patience should
be displayed on all sides. Making excessive demands under the
plea of the New Deal on one hand, is as unpatriotic, as refusing
to comply with its essential principles op the other,

BIOGRAPHY Or A CLAM A NECROTIC
tvr.
She was never strong and was
thrown from her horse at the age
of ten years, and had bad bad serves
ever sine
Her husband
writes the biog
raphy. Six months
after marriage, at
the ago ot 22,
she had an at
tack of paralysis,
at which time
medical doctors
gave her up to
die.
It seems to me
that physicians
Indulge in this
sad prsctice with utter abandon, In
these blograplcal letters, in actual
practice I have never found a phy
sician so depraved, not oven a home
opath. I believe people get this Idea
that the doctors have "given the
patient up to die" when the doctors
have merely been honest and Inform
ed the relatives that they can't prom
ise or guarantee to cure or to save
the patient. That la the trsde of
quacks they are alwaya ready to
promise or guarantee cures or to aeem
to do so. They have to offer rosy
promises In order to catch the gul
lible. . . . however, she went under the
care of a doctor (a freak
healer) and came out of It fairly
well with baths, diet, massage, elec
tricity and fasting. . . .
Everything except prayer, evident
ly. .. . though she sever got reaUy
well but nerves the Umlt most all
times. Later she had paralysis again
and 20 different doctors In aU that
time never found the real trouble.
We cant print tbe rest ot It, be
cause It might give some readers
wrong Impressions. Suffice to say
that finally a regular physician diag
nosed the condition as syphilis of the
central nervous system.
Why was sot the syphilis dlsgsosed
long ago, this husband asks? Re
complains that the long Illness cost
him thousands of dollars and years
of hspplness, to learn "What I know
now about nerve trouble and syphilis,
and will say that both respond to
physical culture and psychology."
If the man seriously believes that
syphilis or Its effects on the central
nervous system will respond to physi
cal culture and psychology, I should
earnestly advise bun to undergo a
careful examination to determine
whether his own oentral nervous
system Is similarly Involved.
This man declares his Intention to
write a true story of his wife's life
and the different treatmenU she west
through to so purpose. He believes
such a story may do othera good.
I hope he will not attempt to write
such a story, for It were printed It
would probsbly do much harm and
no good at all. Tbe man Is scarcely
qualified to speak with authority on
the subject. It Just happens that
In this case the alleged "weak nerves"
or "nerve trouble" was the manifes
tation of syphilis of brain or spinal
oord. ' -
This may be a good occasion to
point out that a child may be born
with syphilis If either parent have
the disease, but If the chUd has sot
the disease when born there Is no
Inheritance of syphilis. Therefore,
had law or custom required a phy
sician's health certificate the wom
an's congenital disqualification for
marriage would have prevented the
marriage.

Tangible evidence of the NRA movement: a group of new men employed
by Union Service Stations, Inc, In conforming with the president's re-em
ployment agreement which the company haa signed. Instructor Is shown
here outlining to some of the new men, all of whom are required to spend
two necks In Intensive training learning the business of operating a service
station, the Intricacies of automobile mechanisms and their need for spe
cific lubricants.
Taking steps to comp;y with the
provisions of President Roosevelt's re
emnlovmsnt aareement, which It
signed on August 3, the Union OH
comuany Immediately enlisted new
men In the service station and eelea
departroenta, and Issued Instructions
to reduce the hours of the men work
ing prior to Inception of the NBA
compact.
Working hours of employees In the
producing, trsnsportatlon, and refin
ing depertments of the compsny were
adjusted to conform with terms of
the re-employment sgreement.
In keeping with the provisions ot
the NBA pact, a large number of men
have been selected for employment In
Union Service Stations, Inc., the com
pany's retail marketing subsidiary. V.
H. Kelly, director of ssles, said. The
new men, Kelly etated, will complete
the personnel ot the 800 stations
which the compsny operates through
out the Psclflc coast. Working hours
of the men, other then managers, on
duty 'prior to the adoption ot the
agreement have been reduced to 40
houra per week, but the men bave
not been given reduction In ealery.
The first groups ot men to be sdded
to the service station payroll are at
tending a two weeks' Intensive period
of classroom and "school" station In
struction In preparation for their du
ties aa service station attendants.
In the course of Instruction the men
are required to atudy the mechanism
of automobllea and learn the specific
lubrication requlremenla of each mov
ing part. They are then given prac
tical Instruction In lubrication work,
versed In the myrlsd other duties de
msnded of an efficient operator, and
assigned to active duty In a station.

Tillamook in the vicinity of Fall

The gale was of such terrif-c force
that It tore fir needles and maple
leaves loose In the woods and show
ered them, unburned, but mixed with
ashes, over Tillamook streets and
homes. The deposit of ashes this

blazes. If not the worst, experienced
in Oregon since we have tiM organ
ized forest' protection." He vlsi'd
the fire area and said he was ap
palled at the devastation.
In other sections of Oregon the
forest fire situation was not serious,
although about 1000 acres of land
has been burned over between Lea
burg and Wendling, in the Eugene
area. This fire, It was expected,
would be brought under control today.
