sands of dollars, for the privilege of sitting in on the annual
baseball classic.
Last night there was a second-rate wrestling match in Port
land. The arena was jammed, every seat was taken. Dog races
are equally popular, the promoters are making a killing. Begin
ning this coming Saturday the football season will get into full

Saturday off, and pack various and sundry stadiums, spending
time and money on the country's most thrilling out-door sport.

PVERTONE claims to be broke, but when the people want
-J something they seem to be able to produce the where with
all to get it. And plainly they want sports, some good, and
some not so good, but from the grunt-and-groan melee to the
bnt cracking fiesta, there appears no dearth of customers.
According to government reports there also appears to be no
decline in beer sales. Beer costs more than spring water and
fresh milk and isn't as refreshing as the 'first nor as nourishing
as the second, but the people prefer the former, presumably be
cause there is a "kick" in it.
There is a kick in a world scries ball game too, a hard fought
football match, a wrestling vaudeville even if it's faked, and
a dog race, provided one has a bet on it.
ITTIIAT is the answer f The answer is, we like to get away
W from it all, we crave to be diverted and amused and
thrilled. We may need a new pair of shoes or a set of woolen
undies, but there is no kick in buying what we need ; there is a
kick in buying what we don't need, if there is a bang in it.
IIo hum a strange world, mates 1
Perhaps some Wise Man, can devise a scheme to capitalize
this passion for diversion, enlarge rather than restrict the
field, and then clap on a tax that will finance the country as
a whplc, and pull Uncle Sam out of the slough of despond.
Yes, that would be a sales taxi But we wouldn't mind a
sales tax on something we don't need, but insist upon having.
No tax will ever keep us from a show we want to see, or a game
we want to attend, or a contest we want to bet on.
Why not utilize this very human disposition, and make it
carry our up-keept We herewith present it, with our compli
ments, to the Roosevelt brain trust.
Don 't Scoff at Brains
CPEAKING of the brain trust recently we have detected a
certain skepticism among the rank and file, regarding the
value of the high brow experts milling about the White House.
We don't share that skepticism. We believe this is a special
ist age, and we need all the brains and the expert knowledge
we can muster. The most hopeful thing about the Roosevelt
administration, in our judgment, is its dependence upon the best
ability and technical skill, it can muster. In our present fix,
we can't have too much of that sort of thing.
TPHE fact that no Miracle' Man has appeared, and that recov-
ery after its midsummer burst has slowed down somewhat,
should not result cither in discouragement, or a demand that
the Brain Trust be disbanded,
be put in.
The country needs above everything else the man that
"KNOWS." Ho doesn't know everything, of course, he cer
tainly isn't infalliblej but with more knowledge than the aver
age, he is the best bet we have.
So let's be patient. Rome wasnt't built in a day, and the
worst depression in the world's history can't be disspcllcd
overnight.
Keep the experts on the job, support the administration that
is engaging them, and with a long pull and a strong pull, we
will yank the ship of state off the rocks yot, and have it floating
in cnlm waters before another year goes by.
The President Is Right
IN frankly telling the American Legion what the government
can and can NOT do, President Roosevelt follows the prece
dent established by every president since the World War.
Presidents narding, Coolidge and Hoover, all adopted the
same attitude, particularly tho last two. They refused to be
stampeded by the radical wing of the organization, they refusod
to sacrifice what they regarded as the welfare of the country,
for the special privilege of any group; they met the convention
face to face, and fearlessly accepted the challenge.
yiHS is as it should be. The president represents the entire
oountry, no faction within it. He wouldn't be worthy of
the position he holds, if he sacrificed what he regards as the
national welfare to political expediency.
Although some of the leaders of the legion disagree with
President Roosevelt's policies regarding veteran relief, we have
no doubt they respect him for so frankly stating them. Eventu
ally we feel sure the rank and file of the organization will agree,
that in the PRESENT CRISIS, confining relief to those who
actually suffered from war service, is the sound and patriotic
thing to do.

Whereas, primitive savages and a
few civilized persona whoes brains
have not been addled by physical cul
ture bunk, breathe more efficiently
and have greater
endurance than
ordinary folk:
and
Whereas, our
cheaty complex
la unnatural and
u n p histological
and ought to be
discarded along
with the toeing
out affectation of
the past genera
tion; and
Whereas, the
habit of costal or
cheat breathing commonly cultivated
by persona with quaint conceptions
of physiology handicaps those addict
ed to It. Therefore, be It
Resolved, that all who now wear
the emblem of the B. B. club and
who doesn't? ahould abide by the
rules of the order.
The Ideal of the B. B. club la o
free the diaphragm.
All chest breathers are belly bound.
Belly breathing la not "deep breath
ing." It la only natural breathing.
The novice, In order to reap the
greatest benefit from belly breathing,
ehould start from scratch, with the
assumption that what he or she al
ready knows about breathing la not
to. You see, most popular knowl
edge of auch things la derived, not
from the atudy of physiology, but
from the teachings of all sort of
propagandists, charlatans, mall-order
quacks and shortcut health "courses."
The diaphragm functions automat
ically but not Involuntarily.
The untutored savage breathes
ireely and naturally with hla belly
and diaphragm; so do you when you
are anesthetized or fast asleep. The
teat of the time the function of the
diaphragm la Inhibited or hampered
by your bad education.
It seems that the adage Mens sana
In corpora sano (a sound mind In a
round body) doesn't mean an ye thing
to our education. The policy In
dorsed by the great nostrum and
quackery Interests aa well aa many
Influential commercial Interests, Is
to train the mind and leave the body
to pick up training casually.
The purpose of the B. B. club la
not to teach you how to breathe. Who
teaches the savage or the horse how
to breathe? Belly breathing merely
tends to oppose or correct unnatural
tricks or habits acquired from faulty
physical education.

to the big town, they scarcely give
Newark a thought, en passant, so
there la surprise exploring it.
Tall buildings scrape the aklea,
there are enormous department store
and smart specialty shops that would
vie with those along Fifth avenue.
All this, despite that in a few min
utes one may whisk through the Hol
land Tunnel and be In Manhattan.
Newark does not permit this prox
imity to be a handicap.
History also furnished the city with
romantic back-ground. In 1666 Capt.
Robert Treat and a band of SO Purt
tans traveled through the wilderness
and purchased the site of Newark
from the Indiana for a few gaudy
trinkets. That's why Robert Treat
la ao venerated.
Having visited atrporta of Croyden,

(legs, my dear Madam, legs) la to lie
on back and alowly life the limb to
an angle. This never falls to straight

Answer Thank you. A half dozen
methods have been suggested by our

a referendum and find out which
method la best.
Safe Water for Tourist.
Oolng on automobile trip to the

for purifying drinking water along
the road? Mrs. A. T. V.
Answer Try to obtain your drink
ing water only In the cities you pass
through. If you have to drink water
from the road&ide place, better boll
it, If you can't boll It, add one drop
of tincture of lodln to the quart of
water, and let this stand 20 minutes
before you drink.

Just WHAT Does
The following discussion presents the various suggested methods of
raising prices by monetary means and the difficultly in bringing about
the desired results. The conclusion Is reached that recovery Is im
peded by the uncertainties In the Situation and that business activ
ities would be promoted, with resulting higher prices, if the dollar
could be atablUzed. The stabilization would have to be with a lower
gold content of the dollar to prevent speculative selling that would
carry prices down.
What do people mean when
they my. "We need a moderate,
controlled lunation"?
They usually mean they desire to
see prices put up to the level perhaps
of 1926 (particularly of farm prod
ucts), by manipulation of the money
or credit system.
Why la the lfTCB prlve level
desired?
Because It la contended a large
share of the existing Indebtedness
was contracted when prices were up,
and cannot be paid with prices down.
Thus, if a farmer borrowed money on
bis farm when wheat was $1.25 a
tushel, it la difficult or impossible
for him to pay off the mortgage with
wheat at 65 cents, or lower.
How could Inflation be brought
about?
Three ways are generally urged.
One la by decreasing the gold con
tent of the dollar. If the gold con
tent were cut in half, aa is permis
sible under the Thomas amendment,
that would mean that every old gold
dollar would be worth two new new
dollars. The country's gold reserve
would then be counted not as four
billion dollars, but aa eight billion
dollars. Those who believe In this
devaluing of the dollar contend that
such action would automatically
double prices.
What Is the second method?
By Issuing additional paper cur
rency. A little more than 5! bil
lions Is now In circulation (all of It
secured by bonds commodities, or
told). The Thomas amendment au
thorizes the issuing of three billion
more, without any specific security.
And the third method?
By "pumping credit Into the
banks" by the purchase of govern
ment bonds by the federal reserve
banks. The reserve banks pay for
these bonds by creating credit. Under
the Thomas amendment the Presi
dent la authorized to direct the Fed
eral Reserve banks to buy bonds up
to three billion dollars, presumably
setting free three billions of new
crdeit for use in business. Thus, a
Kansas City bank might sell one mil
lion In governments to the Federal
Reserve, and be credited with ono
:n.:i!on dollars on the books of the
reserve bank, which it could lend it
customers. As bank checks are large
ly used for currency in the United
States, an Increase in bank credlJa
is equivalent to an Increase in pos
sible currency In circulation.
Would devaluing the gold con
tent of the dollar have the effect
expected by advocates of that
policy?
Experience Is against such an out
come. By the embargo on gold pay
ments the dollar already has been
devalued 33 per cent. Some prices
have gone up. others have not been
affected, others hare gone down. The
average Increase has been only about
15 per cent. In some cases prices
undoubtedly advanced because of the
expectation of Inflation.
What la the reason for the,
failure of prices to respond to the
depreciation of the dollar?
As was aald. If the dollar were to be
devalued by 50 pr cent, the amount
of gold reserves would become eight

FLIGHT RECORD
Inflation Mean?
Nil ion dollars Instead of four billion.
That would mean the banks could
lend more money. But they have
means to lend much more money
than they are lending today. They
say they cannot find good loans for
the credit they have on hand. To
increase this unused credit would not
help prices except through specula
tion based on fear of the dollar.
Would the Increase of currency
by three billion dollars from 5H
billion, Increase prices?
It would If people became alarmed
over the prospect of tincontrolled in
flation and got rid of their money
by buying things. But the things
bought would be held merely as a
speculation. Good so bought would
not pass into consumption and even
tually prices might fall. The mere
Increase of currency to 8V4 billion
dollars would not of Itself affe
rrlces, because bank checks, and last
year transactions totaled 600 billion
dollars because of the velocity with
which the checks circulated. The
additional three billion would be only
a drou In the bucket in relation to
the 600 billion of transactions. As
an expert haa said: "You cannat
make up for velocity by volume."
How con Id Inflation come by
printing currency?
As the Committee for the Nation
which favors devaluing the dollar,
but not printing currency reported,
such "a terlfying amount" of cur
rency would have to be printed aa to
create a panic and thus lead to a
tunaway inflation auch aa Germany
had soon after the war.
Could not the amount of cur
rency be controlled?
Panicky flights from currency are
very difficult to control. If a genu
ine scare over the possible value of
money gets under way and people
generally start to spend, bow are they
to be made to stop? Pressure becomes
almost irresistible to continue to print
more money to sustain the higher
price level. In Germany it proved
impossible to withstand this pressure.
In France the situation got out of
hand until the franc had sunk to
one-tenth of its gold value, when the
Implacable Polncare waa given dic
tatorial powers to stabilize. An Aus
trian delegate to the recent London
conference remarked tt was no trick
to raise prices provided you were
willing to print enough currency.
"We Increased ours 15.000 per cent,"
he said, "but we weren't happy about
what happened."
Is there any sound way to raise
prices?
Yes. Business recovery which la on
the way in the United States and
other countries will bring up prices.
The government hopes to help this
by large expenditures on public
works. Recovery is now Impeded by
uncertainty as to the dollar. If that
uncertainty could be definitely end
ed, the dollar stabilized and confi
dence thus restored, there would be
reason to expect prices to rise. Stab
ilization, however, probably should be
with a lower gold content of the dol
lar around the present level to pre
vent a selling rush that would CAr."y
prices down. Kansas City Star.

To the Editor:
On September 20, 1933, a World
War veteran. No. C-343,878 In tho
army of the United States and No.
264.303 in the Canadian army, with
14 years' service in the army of the
two governments and with an estab
lished claim from wounds and In
juries that should be a total disa
bility, but with claim pending under
the new rating established by present
administration, and known as pub
lic No. 2 or the economy bill.
This veteran stopped In Medford
on hla way to where his service record
Is, In a California veteran's bureau.
For under thla bill there la not any
transportation provided under certain
regulations. He wanted the Red Cross
to help him out with a few provisions
and would they please give him a
second hand blanket or two, to help
him on his way to his local hospital.
This veteran claims that he could not
get by the clerk'a desk to explain hla
case.
Also this veteran was carrying In
structions from the Ottawa Pension
Bureau. Canada, advising and In
structing him to call upon all local
chapters of the Bed Cross, asking for
help on his way home. And also he
had lettera from a major general that
he was injured In service and a let
ter from President Roosevelt admit
ting his disabilities, and return to hla
local veteran hospital.
After making the rounds of a cou
ple reliefs In the city of Medford, the
veteran called upon Mayor Wilson.
When he found out that there waa
a D. A. V. in the city and being a
member of the Los Angeles chapter
he next hunted up the adjutant and
commander of thla chapter. He re
ceived an order for some provisions
and cigarettes and the Four Square
Gospel gave him hla blankets and
they were free of all charge.

Why
Liquid Laxatives
are Back in Favor
The public h fast returning to the use
of liquid laxatives. People have,
learned that the properly prepared

j The dose of a liquid laxative ran
be varied tn suit the needs of the
; individual. The action ran thus he
, regulated. A child is easily given the
rjsht dose. And mild liquid laxatives
i do not irritate the kidnevs.
Doctors are generally agreed that
senna is the pest laxative or every-
Dnrty. .enna is a nmiirnl laxative. It
does not dram the system like the
cathartics that leave you so thirsty.
Dr. lildwell s .Syrup Pepsin is a
liquid laxative which relies on senna
for its laxative action. It has the
average person's bowels as regular as
clockwork in a few weeks' time.
