The apeak - easics now running full blast in Jackson county should be closed. They are not only bad morally but economically. They not only cater to an undesirable element in the community, they take money away from legitimate He is also right in declaring, declared, that if ever there WAS of the legislature should be called In a month or two this country will be legally wet. Over a dozen states have already prepared for that event, have ma chines for liquor control ready to function, but until the legisl ature meets, Oregon can do nothing. - If nothing is done when the flood gates are released, this of confusion and chaos, which will defy description, and will cause such a revulsion of public feeling, that Oregon will prob ably go bone dry at the first opportunity. KTOT only from the moral, but the economic standpoint Oregon ' should have the best system of liquor control that, can be devised. ' It should be a control which will prevent intemperance on one hand, and increase state revenues on the other. It should be kept free from machine politics;' and from 'the greed of the liquor interests. It should be citizenship Oregon can produce, .men not only known to be incorruptible, but men who have demonstrated, their abilities, and their disinterested devotion to the best ideals of disinterest ed public service. " Any' system that allows political control; any system that allows the whiskey ring to. jump up its sales regardless; any system that does NOT render the return of the saloon, or any institution approaching it, impossible,, is BOUND TO FAIL. The sooner the legislature is called. and the sooner this prob lem is faced and attacked and SOLVED, the better for this state and all concerned. Will Europe THINGS are happening fast at the Geneva disarmament .con fnrDnfiP VftfltDrrlov wa AnlartA thof al.A .nnfarAn. mniil be lucky if it didn't result in instead of farther away. . With Germany withdrawing Inter and serving notice that it will withdraw from the League of Nations, war is brought appreciably nearer. Today all Europe is aroused to a diplomatic tension, that has not been equalled since that portentious August nearly 20 years ago. Ministers of state. are in secret conference in every capital in Europe, and in Washington, D. C. The delegates in Geneva are in a huddle, scarcely knowing which way to turn. Germany is in a ferment, and according to press dispatches, the German people, sensing the gravity of the crisis, are rallying to the Nazi standard under the leadership of their modern Wotau, ex-President Von Hindenburg. . . ITILL war comef Hardly. Certainly not now. Hitler has apparently succeeded in his main purpose, which was to solidify the German people behind him, and divert public atten tion from the serious financial condition. Germany is in.. '. But the Hitler policy has the same fatal weakness that the old Prussian policy had. It is ali i blood and. iron, ruthless, archaic, harking back to an era that has definitely passed. It has done just what the U-boat policy did, it has isolated Ger many, it leaves the Teutonic reich, against the world, alone. More than that, unlike the Germany of 20 years ago, Ger many couldn't wajje a war if it wanted to. It hasn't in any real sense, either an army or a navy. It hasn't an air fleet. It has no money. , T17HT then is war nearer t Because unless Germany relents " and returns, or the allies make concessions which France is certain to oppose, an attempt will be made to enforce the terms of the Versailles treaty, and such a course can 't fail but result in violence and bloodshed. Great oaks from little acorns grow. And great wars come from small disturbances, isolated at first but spreading like a brush fire fanned by the wind. ("Small disturbances',' like the volley a few Serbian students fired into the carriage of a certain crown prince, 20 years ago.) " e a s ""PHIS action by Germany in other words, brings the wide- spread European ferment, to a head and brings it sooner than anyone anticipated. Many observe were surprised, that the Nazi delegation to the disarmament conference a disarm ament conference mind you, called to promote peace -came to the hall under an armed guard. One sees the reason now. It really wasn't a. disarmament conference. It was a war conference. - . ? t It is still unbelievable that any war will. come,--'that the human race anywhere, but particularly .its civilited -portion Rhould after the ghastly experience in the World war, ever.be drawn into another one. It's murder on one side, and suicide on the other. But facts are facts and can't be evaded when they appear. And the facts in Europe today, show plainly that that part of the world is nearer war today than at any time since 1914.

Regarding the "ftntlqua" bath In the modern house, perhaps the prac tical Dr. Brady will auggeat how we Jkmmm mothera of email w0!?:A7 children who h a- v e outgrown the baby bath and yet are too small to scrub themselves, can bathe them with out getting a lull shower at the same time? Also, do you happen to know that "soak ing" i really necessary to loosen dirt on our grubby children and help remove It without remov ing the skin underneath? Also, what is more soothing or refreshing than a gorgeous hot tub when one is stiff and sore from unusual work or when nerves are Jumpy from a long strain? Keep your old showers. They have their place and use. I grant you the sanitary superiority of the show er bath, but such baths have draw backs, such as , children scalding themselves. (Mrs. F. I.) - You are quite right up to the end of your, first sentence,' Madam. I con fess I never thought of the young children when I Junked all bath tubs in private residences. I conceded tubs to hospitals, sanitariums and Insti tutions for the aged, you will remem ber. I should have granted a stay of execution for the benefit of chil dren still unable to wash them selves. . . . A normal child over two years of age should do his own bathing, how ever, snd a bath water heater equip ped with a properly adjusted therm ostat prevents any accidental scald ing. Shower bath equipment which delivers water hot enough to scald Is antique anyway. An application of soapsuds will loosen any dirt that should be loos ened, In a shower bath as readily as In a tub. As for the soothing or refreshing effect of Immersion In hot water, that may be advisable for feeble or sickly persons, or In the treatment of certain ailments, but we are con sidering here only the ordinary re quirements of well people In their dally life. It Is bad physiology, bad hygiene and bad psychology for young per sons to cultivate the soft, effeminate habit of taking hot baths when they are tired, sore, or worn by strain. A short tepldor moderately cool bath la always better for the normal In dividual In such circumstances. Hot baths are rather relaxing, de pressing. Cool baths are refreshing, stimulating. But we must not confuse hydro therapy, the use of baths In the treatment of Illness, with cleanliness, A healthy Individual washes his body for the sake of cleanliness, and not NEW YORK DAY BY DAY By O.

Recently my wife acquired title to a pleasantly porched brick house on the block where she spent her girlhood snd a block from tho frame cottage of my Juvenile yeare A first remem- brsnce of her was skipping a rope on the brick parement In front of thla resi dence.

Perhaps a compromise would be the logical solution of the problem. Instead of the funny contraptions traditionally Installed In bathrooms, a kind of sunken pool should be built so that one could step down Into the pool for a shower or lie and soak In the water If one preferred. The custom of having a shower stall and a tub in addition Is as ridicu lous as cutting a large hole In the door for the old cat and a smaller hole for the kitten. The correspondent grants the san itary superiority of the shower bath over the tub bath. Yea, and some people prefer Individual toothbrushes to toothbrushes provided for all our guests. QUESTIONS AND ANSWKR3 Obliquity of Baby's Head Baby 14 months old has flat head at back, flatter on one side than on the other. Doctor aald soft spot on top of head In front had been filled with hard bone at the age of eight months. (Mrs. E. A.) Answer The back of head may be come flat If baby Ilea or sleeps too much on his back. A baby should sleep sometimes on one side, some times on the other, sometimes on his back If he likes or on his belly.

Beverly Hills, Calif Many relatives and friends we loved sleep on the picturesque bluff that Is Mound Hill "a green thought In a green shade." There, too, we both ex pect to Bleep. There are other hllla. Just aa lovely along that rolling val ley, long settled, serene. Every city man almost. I presume, day dreams of becoming "a country gentleman." a plump-cheeked squire with plenty of Jumpers, rows of ken nels and a few dusty flagons of hesdy old Port. It's cheerful contemplation. I Indulge many times after the har rasaltur 34 hours of a city's furore. Yet It's only musing. I know my senti mental nexus to the small town would snap If I lived In one. The many thlnga that made the small town glamorous for so many are no more. It Is now I a. m. In New York. A damp, pearly fog Is rolling up from the bsy. Out of the window street light are furry yellowish blobs. The Autumnal chill brings Its torch of melancholy ana train of reveries. In the gathering mist I may fashion msny scenes dear to all. I see Miss Oatewood, the public school music teacher, and her pitch prong. And I see Cora Dodge, who lived across tne tracks and whose skirt alwaya gapped In the back.

If the Issue meets a strong demand, direct' currency Inflation probably may be considered unnecesssry. If, on the other hsnd, it should fall, the need for treasury funds might force the administration to move Into di rect Inflation." THAT la to say, the government, In order to finance Its recovery pro gram, has to have more money than it can raise by taxation, f It cant BORROW thla money from Its citi zens, It will start the presses and PRINT It. GOVERNMENTS, you see, are quite different from ordinary individ uals. They figure out the amount of money it will take to run them on the scale of living they have planned Then they levy a tax to raise the money they need. If the tax wqn't raise the money, they Issue bonds. If the bonds won't sell, they start the presses and PRINT THE MONEY. WE POOR devl'la' of private Indi viduals can't work It that way. In times like these, we figure out t,he MINIMUM amount we can get by on. Then we go out and try to raise money enough to meet this minimum figure. If we can't raise the money, we cut down the estimate and LIVE ON LESS. Government don't do it that way. Everything considered, It might be much better If they did. But the point Is THEY DON'T. WE COMPLAIN 'that governments are extravagant, and It Is TRUE. They are terribly so. But Is It really any wonder? pUT yourself In 'the place of a gov- ernment. Suppose that all you had to do was to figure out the amount of money you needed, or WANTED, to run you for a year, and that all that ' was then necessary was to tell some body the amount and the money HAD TO COME no Ifs or and about It. . Under auch circumstances, you'd be extravagant too. Now wouldn't you? . ( BUT let'a get back to this business of bonria anrl Inflation urn, i. the difference between the two meth ods? Just offhand, It doesn't SDDear ; that there Is much difference. The government prints the bonds, sells them to the public, then takes the money It gets for them and paya Its blllB. In the case of direct inri-! tlon, It merely prints the money and then pays Its bills with It. At first glsnce, It looks as if the printing of money 1 better, BE CAUSE SIMPLER.

Haor.'Don'l 8 o Cry 8oby yX Jf-l'tfr NOW suppose you don't want to mortgage your house, but In stead go out and pay your bills with I. O. U.'s, which have nothing back of them but your promise to pay if and when you get the money. We'll assume, for the sske ot argument, that your creditors will accept your I. O. U.'S. Tint's the inflation method. 4 HERE'S the difference: Your mortgage money will MEAN A LOT to you, because you know you have to work and earn and PAY IT BACK, or lose your house. So you will spend it pretty cautious ly, because you know you have to earn It back. But your I. oO. U.'a won't mean so much, especially if people accept them readily at first, and the chances are you'll go on passing them out until the first thing you know you have so many of them in circulation that you'll realize the hopelessness of ever trying to take them up at full face value. Other people will realize that at about the aame time, and your I. 0. U.'a will no longer be accepted at face value. After that, the more of them you put out the leas they're worth. It'a the ssme wsy with printing press money. THE real difference, you see, Is Bond money bond, you know, Is Just another word for mortgage la HARD money, because It has to be EARNED BACK. Printing press money, which Is merely government's 1. O. U., Is easy money, because mak ing It good la a case of "If and when." Money that comes too easily Is pretty sure to be spent too reck lessly. 4 Klrkland Fined Chsrles P.
