crushing defeat of Oregon at the bands of the Trojans on
Saturday. There are as many alibis fluttering about as there
are football fans, which includes the major portion of the popu
lation. Perfectly natural of course, but also foolish. Football is the
most UNCERTAIN game in the sporting world. That is one
reason why it is so fascinating. Between two teams, at all even
ly matched, anything may happen, and the final result is seldom
known, UNTIL the final whistle.
As a result it is as futile to waste time alibing a defeat, as
UNDULY extending the celebration of a victory. For nine times
out of ten Lady Luck had a lot to do with both. Far better to
take both in stride and transfer one's interest and attention to
the next contest.
TPHAT as a general rule, is what the football players do. Being
human they are downcast by a beating and bouyed up by
victory; but once either has HAPPENED, they proceed to forget
it, and concentrate on the next
That s what the Oregon players are doing now. They are
getting ready for the gams with St. Mary's, Thanksgiving. And
the southern Californians are getting ready for Notre Dame.
It was tough to lose and sweet to win, but that's "all in the
day's work" on Monday morning.
A SIMILAR philosophy might well be adopted by the football
fans. But the truth is the fans take football more seriously
than the players, at least as far aa the results are concerned,
In fact football is not so much overstressed on the football field,
as iij the grandstand j not so much within the team as outside it.
As above stated this is all

before the club fire.
But a little toning down on the alibi business would be in
order. Oregon played great football in the first half, and with
a few "breaks" instead of none
have been very different. But
THAT IS FOOTBALL.

only literally but figuratively.
Naturally Soviet Russia welcomes as representative of this

something else will be tried. The only certain thing at the

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
What to Eat.
What foods should one with acid
stomach avoid? Is It true that a per
son with excessive acidity is likely to
have a stomach ulcer In time? (W
de J.)
Answer Probably one with acid
stomach Is more likely to get gastric
or duodenal ulcer. Avoid highly sea
soned sauces, catsup, mustard, vino-
gar, tomatoes, oranges, grapefruit,
cheese, nuts, tea, coffee, beer, pastries
. . . send stamped addressed envelope
nd 10 cents In coin for booklet
"Guide to Right Eating."
Saccharin as Sugar Substitute.
Please tell me the benefit of using
saccharin tablets Instead of sugar In
tea and coffee. (M. T.)
Anewer Saccharin la a synthetic
chemical which Imparts a sweetish
taste to food and Is therefore used as
a sugar substitute. Used sparingly It
Is harmless, but tnere is i or uo
advantage In It.

Comment
on the
Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY
s-r woodin Is granted an Weflnlte
leave of absence, because. It Is official
ly announced, of Ulnesai
His assistant, Under-Secretary Acb
eeon. resigns, and Henry Morgan,
thau, head of the farm credit ad.
ministration, 1. named acting secre
tary of the tresaury.
WHAT does It mean?
Well, nobody knows, of course
but the following paragraph from a
Washington dispatch of yesterday
gives a clue:
"Actually, no Informed person In
Washington has any real doubt about
the background and the cause of the
shakeup. The old treasury group felt
continuance of the gold program
would endanger the refinancing pro
gram and perhaps lead to DIRECT
CURRENCY INFLATION."
THAT Is to say. those who are op
posed to Inflation and the sa-
called "managed" currency are get
ting out, snd those who favor Infla
tion and a managed currency are
coming In.
Draw your own conclusions.
TJTHAT will happen if we get direct
IT Inflation:
This will happen: We will have
more money, WORTH LESS. Two dol
lara may be put In our pockets for
each dollar we have there now. but
the two dollars will buy only aa much
as our present one.
M
WHO will benefit?
DEBTORS. Two soft dollars,
under Inflation, will buy only aa
much as one hard dollar buys now,
but they WlU pay TWO WHOLE DOL
LARS of debt.
WHO will lose by Inflation?
The answer to that la easy
Those to whom MONEY IS OWED
will lose Including the bl and there.
fore presumably wicked Individuals to
whom a LOT of money la owed and
the widows and orphans and aged
people to whom a little Is owned In
the form of bonds, mortgages, etc.,
that represent their lifetime savings-
They wlU get back soft money In
place of the hard money they saved
up.
M
f ABOR, also, will lose. Labor AL-
sU WAYS loses by Inflation, because
when tho currency la Inflated prices
go up faster than wages. Prices can
go up over night, but wages go up
only by the alow process of negotu-
tlon between employer and employee,
with strikes entering the picture here
and there.
WILL Inflation, taking the country
as a whole, help or hurt?
You will have to answer that ques
tion for yourself, and your answer
will depend upon how you are fixed.
If you owe a lot of money, you will
be pretty sure that Inflation will help.
If a lot of money la OWED TO YOU.
you wlU be equally sure It will hurt.
If you work for wages, you may be
reasonably certain that your waea
will go up slower than prices of what
you have to buy.
BUT this much Is clear:
If we're going to have Infla
tion, let's have It and get going. If
we're not going to have Inflation, let's
KNOW WE'RE NOT.
Let's get rid of the present uncer
tainty about the future value of
money, for the uncertainty that now
exists is paralyzing business.
Until people know whst money Is
going to be worth, they won't go
ahead.
Communications
Why Not?
To the editor:
Can you tell me why, with our
seaports, our fishing, lumbering,

can you tell me why the three

we should have, as producers and
consumers. 10.000.000 persons, In
stead of having our present popu
lation of le.ts than 3,000.000.
Would not the doubling or treb

In Albers Sales
Several montha ago. an old Alaska
prospector presented officials of the
Csrnatlon-Albera company with a
gold-mining pan which he had used
tor years In the Klondike. It Is ssld
that many hundreds of dollars worth
of gold has been obtained with this
pan and that It is really a historic
relict of the Alasksn gold rush.
To express their appreciation of
this mlner'a thoughtfulness, the ex
ecutives had the pan sultsbly en
grsved. mounted on a bass snd set
up as a trophy that la awarded to
whichever Pacific coast sales division
of the company that scores highest
In various contests.
The Oregon division sslesmen were
the first to win this trophy and still
hold It.
Now. E. E. Csndle, district ssles
manager, and R. A. Crosby, local rep
