(Peru, Ind., Republican) Standing on a corner, not meaning to do any harm to any one, the editor of the Republican was agreeably aurprlsed when the Rev. O. F. Oolden, of Denver,. Jumped out of his automobile . and thrust the price of a year's subscription Into the publisher's hands, and before the money waa put away Carl Fisher, the school truck driver and auctioneer of Mexico, came across the street, and he, too, paid for a year'a sub scription. To hundreds of others let us say that we will be on the aame corner at flva o'clock to night. All the hunters who Journeyed to Klamath county, the first of the month to ahoot a duok. are on the road to recovery and will be them selves by aprlng.

At Echo, where the old emigrant road crosses the TJmatllla river, several teams are camped every night and as msny ss twenty-five or thirty are camped there. (60 Yrs. Ago col.)

WELLS, who comes nearer being a major prophet than anyone else in the world of letters, has a most interest ing article in the current Liberty Magazine entitled "Roose velt's place in history." Wells is convinced Roosevelt will figure very importantly in human hintory, will by the force of circumstances be picked out as marking an epoch ; but he is not so sure, he will, by hia force of character, wisdom and powers of leadership, succeed in MAKING a new epooh. . We quote "I think she psople of 3098 are almost bound to take him. . just aa they are bound to take President Wilson, aa a flgurs or crucial significance In the world history of our time, whether they blame him or praise him. The historians wlU bs able to tell their story most conveniently by centering their analyses of events upon the problems, difficulties, Intuitions, and errors of these two men. No contemporary Europeans except Lenin and Stalin are likely to rank with these two American presidents la what shall I call It? elucidatory importance. Hitler and Mussolini In contrast are essentially digressions as Napoleon waa a digression who will. I think, dwindle down the corridors of time to compsratlve Insignificance. They are setbacks, lrrele Tant to the main process of human development. And the whole process of British politics remains still essentially Insignificant, still centered upon secondary Issues. But both Wilson and Roosevelt are flgurea already In direct contact with the mighty world problems our race must solve or perish Wilson with the riddle of world unity, for which he failed altogether to find an answer, and Roosevelt with the debris of Wilson's attempt and the added problem of Increased unemployment In a world of excess production." The English author also believes that the American experi ment will go down in history Russian experiment.- "The American experiment for all Its intensifying isolation, will probably remain more edifying and Influential to Europe, the British Empire and South America because It 1 being made on a much more kindred social and economic structure. The Russian experiment hss sought to build a modern state on the basis of a medieval peasantry and the wreckage of a quasi Oriental absolutism; the American reconstruction is being, at tempted upon an Industrial fabric huger than, if not quite so highly developed In its labor organizations aa, any In Europe, and with a population at levels of education varying wltb each atate but In some states even higher than and on the average quite comparable to those of western Europe. What America tries today, the European communities realize they themselves are likely to be trying tomorrow. This Is particularly true of the Anglo-Saxon portion of the British Empire. The phases may be different, Esst and West may be out of step, but they will have to march In the sams direction. It Is In the role of a foundation builder or a noble failure that President Roosevelt seems most likely to find his place In world history. What must be done t What old world do to right itself t The famous British author is quite clear in his own mind at least, regarding this "It ts growing very plain now what la needed and what 1 desirable. More and more of us are realizing that this new social ordsr hss to be a plsnned order, and we are beginning also to realize that somehow it must be made world-wide. These two main point are becoming platitudes, and' even more so Is the third primary necessity of a monetary measure of value or world-wide validity. A coamopolltan planned economy with a controlled money system Is becoming the universal desideratum; the problem la to ge.t It. ,4 The great obstacle before President Roosevelt in achieving this end, as the author sees it, lies in what is generally termed Big Business, but also includes the essential quality of public service, the real nature of American citizenship : "From the European viewpoint the American experiment seems handicapped by some very distinctive difficulties. Ths United States civil service Is comparatively underdeveloped. It Is, we are told, a weaker organization altogether than, say, the British or Oerman prewar civil services. It follows that such a revolutionary change-over from free competition to controlled production and distribution as the president la attempting, a Change-over from Individualism to socialism, can work only if the bulk of the executlvea of the great business organizatlona cut be converted at one swoop into an smergency civil service. These men will have to swing their minds right round from business fighting to business cooperation, and work for the public profit Instead of, shareholders' dividends. Is such a change of heart and habit possible? Or will the president after his first bold break toward Planning, find support falling away from him? Will he discover a dry rot of disloyalty In these new organizations he Is evoking? Will he discover that the more one changea America, the more America remains the same thing? Or haa he reckoned with that? Is he a driving force, or is he Just gesture and resultant like any of those old things we call statesmen In Europe? To our mind there is no doubt of the profound truth of this statement. . The same idea was expressed in this column many months ago when we stated that the time would soon come when the shocp would HAVE to be separated from the gonts in this country' when those who merely give LIP service to Roosevelt and his policies because they happened for the moment to be popular; must be separated from those who actually believe both in him and his principles, and even more vital, ARE READY TO MAKE THOSE SACRIFICES WHICH ARE NECESSARY BEFORE THIS NEW WORLD, CAN BE ESTABLISHED. "PHIS supreme test is starting now. It will become more and more aoute as time goes on. Nothing is born in this life without labor pains. The labor pains of this birth of a New World are going to be terrific The question is, will the people of America and particularly the leaders of finance and industry the government behind the government, be willing to endure them. The answer to that is probably whether or not, a major ity of the people, realize that the only alternative is national ruin. Suoh an outcome, the formation of a new world by Roosevelt, Mr. Wells believes is possible but not probable. Its possibility is based upon the assumption that President Roosevelt is really a greater man, than he believes him to be, that in reality he is a world and not merely a national figure. In this vein the author of "New Worlds for Old" concludes: "It Is quite possible that we observers at a distance underrate the president personally and his personal possibilities. He may feel It necessary to reserve Ms essential philosophy, and mask the full scale of his plana until general opinion comes up to him. We msy presently see promise cryatslllalng more distinctly In the United States and have him speaking serosa the Atlsntlo In the hearing and knowledge of all men, saying to ths British, let us say, "Here In America we have done so and so. We hsv Imposed a certain system of controls upon Industrial life and w have proved that a measured Inflation to lighten the weight of the creditor upon us Is possible. It Is beginning to work. Will you come Into phase with us?' Will you assimilate wtth us In a planned production and distribution, and In our new con trolled monetary method? Then the cogs of our machinery and yours will mesh and the Incorporation of the rest of the world with us Into a new planned world-wide economic structure will be only a question of time." . That might prove a very compelling utterance. "Such a thing Is a possibility but I feel It Is highly 1m. probabls. And If It does not happen before very long. If creative ' forces do not become confluent across the Atlantic, then 1 think the present American experiment, like the Russian, will figure In history rsthsr by Its lessons than Its permsnent achievement, and ths task of reconstructing humsn stfalra on the lines of the world stst will have to begin again from some other center and at some other level. These are the nasons why In my Imaginary history of the near future, "The Shape of Things to Come," I have represented President Roosevelt ss msrklng but not making an epoch In human development. And I do not think that this Is really a very serious detraction of the man ss a man. Bv the scale of great )iea jj, th u ( may stlil leayt u personal grealues.

In the past great generals srose. They fought little daylong bsttles with armies a few score thousands atrong. On that scale glory waa In the compass of one man. But no great general arose In the World War. The Job waa too Immense. And this present Job before mankind la vastly greater. It will never be tackled by Wilsons, Rooaevelts, Lenin, staltns, and so forth all working on their own. The carry-over from the catastrophic phsse of today to the new world, state of freedom and abundant Ufa must, I be lieve,, be the work of a gathering, growing number of men In spired by a common apprehension of the needs and possibilities xof ths case. I am not thinking of any hastily compiled Brain Trust though even to have entertained that Idea puts the president on a far higher level than that all-sufficient poseur Mussolini: I AM THINKING OF A WIDE UNORGANIZED GROWTH OF UNDERSTANDING. "When that understanding develops commanding force the new world will be made accessible; and not before. The days of one-man leadership are at an end. "History may havs to teU of Franklin Roosevslt as a algnifl cant gesture and a failure; that will detract nothing from the ' real heroism snd the real pathos of his lonely and manifestly quite honest attempt to face the needs and menace of his time."

Cat HOT DOGS FOB There Is a fairly common notion that one should not eat much fat food In hot weather, it Is true that f a t yields more than twice a. much heat as pro tein or carbohy- ictrate material idoes. The legen dary craving of the Eskimo for blubber Is natural enough. Plenty of oil or fat enables one to keep warm if exposed to ex tremely cold tem- u.&t4perature. But that does not enter into the problem of keeping cool in hot weather. Prob sbly an excess of protein (such ai lean meat, whites of egg, cheese) In .hot weather cause more discomfort from the heat than would a hearty consumption of fatty food. It has recently been recognized that the loss of salt from the body, tn the sweat, both the visible and tne constant invisible sweat, Is an Important factor In producing heat prostration, sunstroke or heat cramps. Persons exposed to the high de grees of -heat on the southwestern deserts may not notice much sweat ing for the dryness of the air causes such rapid sweating, but Invisible aweatlng Is going on all the time. and Is the principal way In which the bodt cools. After a day on the desert It Is not unusual to find that there has been a loss of a gallon of water through this almost Invisible sweating. Dr. D. P. Dill, Investigat ing the question at the Boulder dam, lost 30 pounds In seven hours walk ing In the desert In a temperature of 104 degrees P. In shade. He drank 13 pounds of water In the course of the walk, thus finishing with a net loss of seven pounds weight. The skin tastes strongly of salt under such conditions. The sweat carries considerable salt with it. This loss of salt from the blood Is nearly as Important to make up as Is the loss of water. If care Is taken to keep the salt supply greater than; the salt loss there Is far less likeli hood of heat cramps, heat prostra-! lion or sunstroke. Moreover, one ; who experiences much discomfort ! from heat or humidity or both will find that a plentiful supply of salt In or on his food prevents the dls-1 comfort. I Drinking water containing salt has been used successfully to prevent j heat cramps In the U S. army. Ani old practice Is to add some barley or some oatmeal to the drinking water! NLvV YORK.

Water salted In similar strength Is about right. In some English coal mines the miners salt their beer to prevent cramps.

Fresh milk Is probably the ' most refreshing drink one can take when oppressed by the heat. N Certain Invalids should avoid salt ing their food and sometimes even eating things which naturally con tain much salt but no one should attempt a salt-poor, salt-free diet except under the personal care of his physician. Persons w,ho are overweight and flabby or loggy should take salt with moderation and avoid excessive use of salty foods.

You can't win I (Copyright, 1933, MoKaught Syndi cate, Inc.) Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS THE government of Premier Albert Sarraut, of France, we read. Is overthrown on a vote of confidence In the chamber of deputies, and hence, In accordance with European custom, will resign and a new gov ernment will be formed. This new government will be the fifth In France within a year. IN FRANCE, as In moat of the lead ing European countries, the pre mier is the executive who corresponds most nearly to our President. He I appointed. Instead of being elected. In France, he Is appointed by the president, and serves aa long as he retalna the confidence of the chamr-er of deputies, which corres ponds to our congress. But ss soon as hs LOSES the con fidence of the chamber of deputies that Is to say, when the chamber votes against one of his policies which has been submitted to it for confirmation or rejection he resigns. and a new premier Is appointed. His assistants, who correspond more or less nearly to our cabinet, resign with him, and the new pre mier chooses a new set of assistants. WE ELECT a President for four years . and he stays elected barring death or impeachment. Under the European system, the premier, who corresponds roushly to our President, remains In office only aa long aa he has the support of the legislative body elected by the peo ple. There are many who contend that the European aystem la more respon sive to public opinion than our own, and Is therefore better. THIS writer, for one, Is not much Interested In that contention. If the European system suits the Europeans, it Is best for them. If our system suits us, it is best for us. The best form of government for ANT people Is that form which suits them best. MOST of us will agree that we change Presidents at least often enough ss It Is. If we changed every time congress .disagreed with the :awa V0U TURKEY FIENDS WHO WANT TO DODGE THE BURPS . . .

Plenty of 3.2 Beer President we should be In A chronic state of uncertainty, t - IT IS Interesting to not that ths Issue on which the chamber of deputies split with the premier wsa a bill proposing that there bs no Income tax on government employes receiving less than 143 a year. In this country we dont tsx the income of ANT government employe, no matter what be gets. We go on the theory that the salary of a government employ la paid by the government, and that levying an Income tax on him would amount to reducing hia salary. If the government reduces the sal ary of an employ by levying an in come tax on him, according to this theory, It would be more or less ob ligated to raise his salary enough to offset the tax.. At least that la the way ths theory goes. THIS writer, for one, Is of ths opinion that government em ployes should pay an income tax, the sams as snybody else. Why not? They receive all the benefits of government, the same a employes of private concerns. Why should they not be willing to help PAY for these benefits? THE economists! of xurse, will tell you that we levy taxes not ac cording to benefits received by ac cording to ability to pay. True enough. But government em ployes have the aame ability to pay aa others receiving equivalent In comes. This writer can sse no sound reason why their Incomes should not be taxed the aame as others.

Once the whole country seemed to forget that there were any farmers. Now the situation is Just the reverse, Nearly every newspaper or magazine you pick up has something in it about farmers. We believe you will agree that many of the reports are too citi fied from the standpoint of the farm er reader.
