It is about time some second string tackles were bowing up. . 4 This Must WHATEVER the final liquor control plan adopted in this state this much is certain: the people of the state should get back of that plan 100 per cent and support it. Another fact should be clearly borne in mind. No matter WHAT that final plan may be, it will not in itself, ENTIRELY eliminate the bootlegger, and the moonshiner. In other words it will not eliminate the chiseler, or the crook. For, whatever the market price of legal liquor may be, whether it is sold in state stores, drug stores or saloons, that price will include a heavy tax, and will therefore be materially higher than illegal liquor, which evades the tax. Here is where the "New Deal" bootlegger will come in. He will have his ground-squirrel whiskey and his bath tub gin, at prices which will knock the thirsty consumers eye out. It will of course, be "just as good," as the legal liquor, at one-half or one-third the price. Why pny $3 when you can get the same thing for $1 f. WHY INDEED f Why OBSERVE the law when you can make money by BREAKING itt Why buy legal liquor which is pure and wholesome, when you can buy illegal liquor which is neither, for half, or one The answer of course, is that buying legal liquor will be right, and buying illegal liquor wrong; buying the first will be supporting the LAW, and assisting the finances of the state; buying the .second, will be breaking the law, and assisting the bootleggers to regain their foothold in politics, finance and the underworld. I AWS are only ag strong as - Oregon is to have a new Whatever that new deal is, unless it is supported by public opinion, it will fail. Unless the right thinking people not only get behind it but take the trouble to publicly condemn those who don't it can't succeed. But if the people will DO, what, under this new dispensa tion is so clearly their DUTY, that their friends and neighbors courts and law officers in running out those who DON'T Then, WHATEVER THE NEW SYSTEM happens to be, it will be a success. For it will have the law and public opinion behind it. And this success will be a glorious triumph for GOOD CITIZENSHIP 1 Why the President Smiles IE have an idea President war political game, than most The aforesaid critics are calling Roosevelt an inflationist. j""' .,uv.. ""-"'""i snooting of Ins own. Under such circumstances, the President's smiling indiffer ence, as he continues to enjoy his vacation at Warm Springs, Georgia, is (to these critics) hard to understand. The man should be scared to death by this formidable uprising against bis present monetary policy, from BOTH major parties. Can't he see the handwriting on the wallt Unless he turns a com plete samersault on his monetary measures very soon, he 'i DOOMED, etc., etc. M EBBE so. But we have another idea. In the first place things, including the broadside I the anti-inflation blast from Barney Baruch, BEFORE they happened. There is no reason informed regarding the preparations of his old oollcge chum, Ogdcn Mills, to start the anti-Roosevelt ball a rolling. Then why should he be so complacentt Why has he done nothing but smile f Why didn't he start a back fire some time agot TpiIE answer, as we see it, is this: Things are developing not. only as President Roosevelt expected, but as he WISHES them to develop. For what is he gettingt He is getting, several months be fore congress meets, a tremendous national, BI-PARTISAN movement against inflation and in favor of sound money. Ho is getting not only the leaders of his own party, but the leaders of the Republican party committed against what former Presi dent Hoover termed "confetti currency." Well, PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT IS AGAINST CONFETTI CURRENCY HIMSELF 1 He is against inflation, at least any direct inflation, such as putting the currency printing presses to work. His gold purchase plan isn't inflatinn. No one knows just what it is, but at the worst it is nothing more than a trial balloon in the direction of a commodity dollar If it works toward raising commodity prices, 0. K.

What he IS afraid of, is the next congress and particularly the wild-eyed inflationists and easy money fanatics, from the South, the Middle and the Far West, who will all be there. But if things go on as at present what will Franklin D. have with which to meet these "'C currency. Ergo and also Q.

THIS BASAL METABOLISM THING. I've been exercising admirable re straint over that Impulse for a year or more and I can t be a gentleman any longer, It Is high time to have a quiet chat with those among our read- KS.TflK,r- &a era who shall be V! ' H or are now be- tests. Those who have had the ex perience should charge It off as education or di version. If the medical brethren elect tu listen In on thla confabulation It Is all right with us, provided they preserve de corum. One woman writes: "X very sick all last winter. Doctor thought It was my heart, but I was too weak to be taken to hospital for t basal test . . . fine physician was giving me heart medicine . . . heart was too rapid. 126 or more to the min ute . . ." This correspondent goes on to say that she has made remark able gains since she began taking the Iron and ammonium citrate I suggested here for a simple anemln. Probably the medicine did her no harm, but It Is much more reason able to assume that the medicine, rest and other things her physician prescribed actually produced the re sults she credits to the Iron. I know human nature. But the point I wish you to notice Is that the woman had a rapid heart action and the doctor was uncertain whether there was some organic heart disease or whether the rapid heart (tachycardia Is the medical term for It) was merely a feature of hyperthyroidism or mask ed exophthalmic goitre (Grave's or Basedow's disease, or. as some machine-made specialists call It, "toxic" goitre). Here Is another woman who com plains: "I am 37 years old and have been under physician's care for two years . . . have had metabol ism tests and found to be hyper thyroid.

Booming out ot tb in- mm the tachycardia. Hence the basal metabolism tests. This test Is too complicated to de scribe here. Suffice to say it gives a fair Index or guage of the rate of combustion of fuel and tissue going on metabolism, the vital chemical process. In fever, for Instances, the metabolism is speeded up. In other conditions It may be slowed down below the normal rate of health. The knowledge, skill and judgment of a well trained physician, In my. opinion, is better than any basal metabolism measurement the most expert technician can make, In the diagnosis and treatment of sickness. At least, I'd prefer a good doctor' Judgment to the findings of such machine measurements. I say this only after a prolonged effort to learn how and. why this Imposing machinery was wished on the medical profession. I think the use of such gadgets increases In In verse ratio with the decline of medi cal training and skill. I may be dumb. If so, I Invite any physician who knows better to tell me and our readers about It.

TWO AMERICANS, Lieutenant Com mander Settle and Major Chester, rise In a balloon to a height of 11 miles above the earth's surface, and then descend safely, landing in a cranberry bog in New Jersey. It U dark when they come down, so they climb out of the special gondola, wrap up in the fabric of the balloon and sleep peacefully through the night, while all over the world wires hum and radios crackle with surmises as to whether or not they are lost. COMING BACK, successful, from a feat that arouses the Interest of the world, their first need is for sleep. Their next Imperative need is FOOD. Human brings, you see, are Just human beings, no matter how big or spectacular they may be. YOU have read In the papers that Lieutenant Commander Settle and Major Chester soared up 11 miles into the STRATOSPHERE. The stratosphere is the" layer ol thinner air that lies above the heavier ATMOSPHERE we breathe. It is too thin to breathe, which is why balloons that go up Into It have to be equipped with special gondolas, in which oftygen can be released. You have seen pt'i.r?" of them In the newsreels. THIS thinner afrj by 'the way, of fers very much less resistance to moving bodies than our heavier air, which leads to the idea that in time to come we may navigate it with streamlined aircraft that will encoun ter VERY LITTLE resistance and so will be able to reach terrific speeds 500, 600 miles an hour, or perhaps much more. Passengers traveling in such air craft could leave San Francisco In the early morning, have lunch in New York, spend the afternoon seeing the sights, go to a show In the even ing and be back on the Pacific Coast In time for work the next day. I SETTLE and Chester, wo read, went i up Into the stratosphere to study the cosmic ray. i Radio rays, so far as we know, stick to the earth; following Its surface and so finally coming back to their starting place. The cosmic ray. it Is suspected, may travel out through space. Intersecting other worlds in its path. The time may come, you see, when we will be TALKING with other worlds. Fantastic, of course, but 10tt years ago the radio would have seemed fantastic. AIRCRAFT can get up out of the heavier atmosphere and Into the thinner stratosphere, where resist ance Is less. Automobiles CAN'T. They have to stick to the surface of the earth, talc ing on whatever resistance the air offers which Is plenty.

IP AUTOMOBILES are to Increase their speed and at the same time DECREASE their consumption of fuel they must be made so as to slip through the air with less resistance. Streamlining la believed to be the answer to that. Engineers estimate that a properly streamlined automo bile could be driven by a 25 horse power engine at a speed In excess of 100 miles an hour, on far leas fuel than Is now required for much lower speeds. That Is why streamlining Is the big thing In automobile design at the present moment. It Isn't Just a fad, for the purpose of making new cars LOOK different.
