Ma a, """" What Is Really Going On ? A T the present time what is really going on, under the surface politically t Well in brief a new political party is being formed. It is or if things continue to go on as they have been it is going to be a Roosevelt Progressive party. The dream of the late Theodore Roosevelt, shattered by the World War, is to be realized by his nephew five or is it six times removed. YS that's the present trend, UNQUESTIONABLY. The A announcement that Senator Glass of Virginia, has, as a newspaper publisher never signed the N. R. A. code, and Is now preparing a rip-snorting speech against the Roosevelt adminis tration when he returns to the senate, merely renders the over whelming evidence a little more conclusive. President Roosevelt's New Deal has driven a wedge deeply into the "inards" of both major political parties. Conservative Democrats are as strongly opposed to the essentials of this New Deal, as are conservative Republicans. In fact the former are making far more noise about it WE find the peppery Carter Glass, joining the wisecracking Al Smith j we find such majnstays of the Democratic party as Barnpy Baruch, giving lip service at least to the party insiir gents. We have Republicans like Reed of Pennsylvania and Wadsworth of New York,' sharpening their knives to assist in the same major operation, and that party solidly behind them. Unless there is a radical change in tlio political tide, such a process can bring only one result the formation of a new party, a liberal Progressive party, under Roosevelt, opposed by a Con servative party, drawing its support about equally from the ranks of the old democratic and republican parties. WILL there be such a change! Will THIS Progressive movement evontually end as the Bull Moose movement ended, as a flash in the pan, will the conservative Democrats return to their party at the next presidential election, as the progressive Republicans returned in 1916 and 1920T It all depends upon future developments. What happens at the coming session of congress, will prove a very important fac tor. If the congress goes far to the left, and thus forces the I administration to take a strong stand against free silver and fiat money, for example, there is strong likelihood, that the jdemocratio ranks, as a whole will stand firm, for sound money i is essentially a conservative desideratum, i . P congress DOESN'T, if the monetary issue should not be A come vital, and if the Roosevelt program of a planned econ omy, SHOULD, then, as we see it, nothing can prevent the fipal and fundamental break. The two old parties will pass out of the picture and two new parties will be formed. Wo rather hope the latter eventuality comes to pass. For then we would have two REAL parties, both natural ORGANIC units, representing two diametrically opposed schools of thought, with a membership representing genuine political convictions; , instead of two memberships hopelessly scrambled, united alone (by outworn tradition, and two meaningless party labels. I ' ! The Rose Bowl Game SO "Coloombia" will play Stanford at the Pasadena Rose Bowl New Year's day for the national football title. riie title however will be very mythical, this year. For in spite of comparative scores, which mean very littlo in football compilations, no one believes that Columbia is the strongest football team in the East, and we don't believe Stanford is the strongest football team in the West. So as far as the national title is concerned the result on New Year's day will not be conclusive. Both teams have been de feated, Columbia by Princeton and Stanford by Washington. If we were to choose a decisive East-West college game with the national title at stake we would put Princeton against Southern California. Thero is no doubt of the Tigers' eastern supremacy i and whilo the Trojans were tied by 0. S. C. and beaten by Stanford, we are still of the opinion, that to date, 1 ' Howard Jones has the strongest football team on the coast.

' inn academic siannanis. f$ the face or things, Stanford should win in our opinion rather easily. For Columbia was not only beaten by Princeton, "0-0, and barely nosed out Cornell, far from strong this year, by a field goal; but in the Rose Bowl any eastern team ('lays under a severe handicap. There is not only the long train journey, but there is the lack of proper outdoor practice, in the cold eastern climate before the departure and the transfer to California's greatly advertised sunshine, which usually means a mercury nt 70 or above in Tasadcna, AFTER. Under such conditions no eastern team can do itself justice. The climatic let-down and the long train trip are worth at least two touchdowns to the California contestant, playing in its natural habitat. However football is notoriously uncertain, and the easterners may spring a surprise. At any rate for football fans who want a final fillip to their 1P33 football Reason, a seat in the Rose Bowl, as usual, will undoubtedly bo well worth the trip. Comment on the Day's News lly 1H VNK JLNKIN9. lONTINOINQ the reminiscence of """ ""' led In this column yesterday: Along about 1809, w. O. Smith, who was then running th. Evening Herald, In Klamath Falls, took a rather decisive step. He put tin eight- hour dsy Into effect In his shop. Before that time, printers had been wrrklnj most any sort or hours neces sary to get out the paper. than the latter. with the conservative element of como west however, and with in Hie nose uowi loiirnnniem, represents a lotrical comnromisc. ... . MOST of them liked he new de parture, but NOT ALL. W. O. came down to the shop one evening and found one of his printers, sn oldish, gray-haired man, sitting on a stool before th. cas "throwing In" type. "What era you doing down her. at thla time of night?" he asked. "Don't you know we're working only eight hours now?" Th. printer apologised. "Shucks," he said, "I didn't have any thing els. to do, and I'd rather work than do nothing." But W. O. Isn't the sort to put his hand to the plow and then turn back. So he shooed him out of Ih. shop, telling him that eight hours Is enough or anybody to work. Then, in all probability, he turned Personal Health Service By William Signed letters pertaining to personal health and hygiene not to dis ease diagnosis or treatment, will he annwered by Dr. Ilrady If a stamped teif-aridrefiKed envelo)e Is enclosed.

That it. the ldeaa pro moted In the het- f"y w--s-iT'1 erogeneoua mass of pamphlets, re prints or papers that have been published in health or other scientific or tech nical magazines, books and spec ial letters, are Ideas calculated to sell someone's goods. That In terested person or firm has appro priated a sum to employ a research worker, or In some Instances the In terest founds a research Institution or supports a fellowship In some university or other Institution. Enuf sed to make It clear that I, miserable lowbrow that I am, take all this In struction with a large grain of salt. I have noticed that if the teacher pays lor your Instruction It Is quite likely to be for the benefit of the teacher, whereas, If you pay for It yourself or get It at your own cost. It Is likely to be sound and helprul to you. From today's mall I gleaned a pamphlet of imposing appearance. It purports to be from Columbia uni versity. It bears.the title "The Nutri tive Value of the Banana.' - Now for years I have been feebly squawking about the value of the ba nana In thf ordinary family dietary. I have been advising mothers to be gin feeding the baby well ripened ba nana when the baby Is four months old. I have taught, and many par ents have found that suitable ration of banana solves the problem of con stipation and also restores good di gestion and good health to many puny, undernourished, sickly Infants. And so on. Now It appears that some research worker at the university has discov ered some of these facts about ba nana. So the university gets out a fine big pamphlet and circulates It widely. I don't know who stands the expense of all this. Surely not Co lumbia university. In acknowledgement of my own ad vocacy of bananas as a staple In the dietary one Importer once sent me barrel of bananas, I am credibly informed, but the boys In the prow room sniffed the barrel and I never got a sniff of the contents.

No printer ever uses a word as mild aa that. n BUT to go on with W. O. and his eight-hour day. He came down to the office a few days later, this time early In the morning, and there was this same printer sitting on the stool at bis case and working away with a will. "What the ," W. O. exploded. "Didn't I shoo you out of this shop the other night when you were work ing after hours? Now I come down aSid find you working before hours. What sort of bird are you?" Again the printer apologized. "1 came down town early," he ssld, "and Just simply couldn't find anything to do till 8 o'clock." AT THIS POINTS Nate Otfnrbeln ex plained privately that In those unregenerate days the saloons opened early and gave a free drink to the first customer through the door. There were reasons then, you see. for getting down early.

Brady, M.D. ARE GOOD FOOD? all my recommendations of peanuts as good, wholesome, economical nourishing food, I've never received a peanut and wouldn't think or say any more about peanuts if I did. One of the conclusions this Colum bia research presents Is so much hooey. In my Judgment. It says: "The low content of protein In the fresh pulp makes It an ex cellent means of Increasing caloric value in diets without increasing protein Intake (for example) In nephritic diets." This implies that diet In nephritis (Brlght's disease) must contain only a limited amount of protein. There Is no scientific ground for the as sumption. But then, the man who conducted this great research on the banana is not a physician and so could not be expected to know. How ever, I still recommend liberal um of ripe raw banana In the diet of Infant, child and adult, especially for malnutrition, constipation and colitis. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Is Beer Fattening? I am nearly 40 and nearly if not quite fat. Please tell me whether I will grow fatter If I take a bottle of beer as a bedtime snack each even ing. My husband laughs at the Idea and takes his beer regularly, yet hasn't a scrap of fat on him . . . Mrs. T. P. Answer A bottle of beer is an in definite quantity. Seldom more than three-fourths of a pint In these par lous times. If we concede that the beer contains 3.2 alcohol and that the alcohol Is oxidized and utilized by the body as fuel or food, a bottle of beer may be counted as yielding approximately 176 calories. That Is approximately what you get from half a pint, a large glassful of milk. Such an addition to a maintenance ration would bring about a gain of a pound a month If regularly followed. 1 don't know, but I estimate one would have to walk two miles to burn up that much energy. Ain't It a shame? Honey or Sugar. Has honey any merits over can sugar or corn syrup or maple syrup? W. H. M. Answer Not In nutritive value, di gestibility or suitability in metabol- j ism. However, honey Is Just as wholesome as the other Items If one like the taste of It. (Copyright, 1933, John P.
