E 01 W" JNRA, 7 U.S. Ye Smudge Pot B Artnui ferry The Law of Compensation "TE3, this is a great country. As the New Tear starts, the elements appear determined to demonstrate to all, that Southern Oregon is the best place on the coast in which to live. While there have been record breaking rains and devastating floods to the north and south, the Rogue River valley has en joyed the most perfect winter weather. "While farmers in Washington have been fleeing to high land in row boats, the farmers in this section of the state, have been peacefully plowing. Destruction was so great north of the Columbia river that the national Red Cross had to be appealed to. Now Los Angeles county, California is taking the toll of one of the most destruc tive floods in its history, with the loss of over a score of lives and property damage in the millions. A year ago this same section of the Golden Bear state, was stricken by a devastating earthquake. A ghastly oil well ex plosion and fire followed soon after. Southern Oregon has suffered from swollen streams and high water in the past, and may again, but the character of the wooded land and the natural drainage, render serious floods practically impossible. Earthquakes are unknown in this part of the world, and as there is no oil, there can be no oil fires. , What we are driving at, aside from rendering thanks that we live where we do, is to call attention to that old law of compensation. Oregon has been called the poor relation, the Little Orphan Annie of the Far West. In development of its natural re sources, in the attainment of wealth and growth of its popula tion, it has lagged behind its northern neighbor and been com pletely outdistanced by its southern. But there have been and are compensations. As a place in which to live, to live safely and peacefully and enjoy from day to day the blessings of a kindly and beneficent Nature, hasn't Oregon and particularly Southern Oregon all the beBt of itt We think so.

Particularly is this true in the case of schools, where the benefits are universal, but where now a comparatively small percentage of benefactors carry the entire burden under , an arbitrary system of compulsion enforced by the threat of con fiscation of their property. , Someone sends a handsome bro chure which Is evidently distributed to promote the Interest of a sani tarium. In the brochure we read that flesh meats of aU sorts, ln cluding red meat, fish, fowl, oystere, clams, lobsters, etc.. are excluded from the Sanitarium bill of fare, and the brochure further glvea "several ex cellent reasons" for thla freak practice, among them thla quaint assumption: The great majority of In valids are suffering from the 111 effects of flesh eating. Rheu matism, gout, certain forms of Brlght's disease, gallstones, renal calculi (stone In the kidneys), many forms of nuerasthenla, mi graine or headache, gastlc ulcer, hyperacidity, and many other maladies belong to a class which has been aptly designated as 'meat-eater's disorders,' because directly promoted by flesh eat ing." Now as far as I know the sani tarium that propogates such nonsense Is a high class Institution, probably as pleasant a place as a nervous im postor or a genuine Invalid could spend a month. Some of the med ical men on the sanitarium staff have accomplished notable work In their special fields. Nevertheless, I feel It Is only fair to say here that Reason No. 1 given by the institution for the exclusion of meat la nothing more than a collection of Idle and exploded theories, vagaries or fancies. Notice that the taboo does not In clude eggs and milk, though both Items should be excluded from the diet If there Is any real ground for the notion that the various maladies mentioned are "directly promoted" by Hesh food. There la no significant difference between the nitrogenous or protein part of lean meat, fowl, fish, oysters, etc., and the nitrogen ous part of milk or egg. It's Just an old Yankee custom cereals, vegetables and fruits are fine filler, you know, and happily, don't1 cost much. 1 Another odd antipathy of the sani tarium people is the assumption that cane sugar is not good food for man. The great minds that conceive these funny notions for the sanitarium's propaganda do not explain why cane sugar is so bad for us and almost any other kind of sugar Is rather healthful. They do drop a dreadful suggestion into the middle of the anathema they pronounce against the eating of cane sugar, namely, that In spectlon of the public- schools In i large city showed that 90 per cent of the children were suffering from decay of the teeth. What, only 00 per cent? I'd like to find out what kind of diet the children In that city have. As general rule such surveys seldom find a child who has no dental caries. If 10 per cent of the children In the schools of the large city were free from dental decay. It speaks highly for their nutrition and general good hygiene. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Pernicious Anemia Conquered. I can give no advice about the treatment of pernicious anemia. The booklet "Blood and Health" (ask for copy and inclose a dime and a stamp ed addressed envelope) contains no particular Information about pernici ous anemia, except that injections of liver extract or extract of swine stomach into the muscles once or twice a month seems to cure. Heart In Wrong Place. When I recovered from an automo bile accident the insurance company sent me to a prominent physician In town for a thorough examination. To my amazement he found my heart is on the right side and all the other or gans are reversed. He called several other doctors to see me. I am a twin. Different people tell me that I cannot expect to live long and if I should marry I could never have children. . . Mloa B. D. L. Answer Those people are not dif ferent their hearts are not In the right place either. No reason why you should not live 100 years and have a dozen children. (Copyright, 1933, John F. Dllle Co.)

The family that spends $50 a month pays a tax of 75 cents; those who spend $500 contribute $7.50. The transient and the tax dodger are automatically assessed when they buy they pay. The farmer who produces most of that which he con sumes pays a proportionately smaller tax, but benefits from the larger contributions of non-producers, thus enabling rural schools to operate on a basis of equality with those in the cities, which is impossible on a land assessment basis.

Few In the New York whirl are so hospitable to every manifestation of life as Will H Hays.

Yet in this constant flight from thing to thing he has r- a managea nme rt 2, .1 alter time w wwF x n bring order out of chaos. No one In tne industry will deny that when he tackled the mov ies It was a snake-ridden grocer's shop. He has been the Innocent meat dandling over the vipers' den, a target for the venom. But or all executives I have kno-n he Is lenat rebellious against a chang ing world. He simply gives to It qualities that make the Inevitable changes lees painful. His electric hustle may Inspire the laggard's Jeer, but no one who knows him doubts his utter sincerity and honesty. In taking life in quick bounds, he! throws off a contagion of hurry. No- body calls at his office and he sees all who call without feeling It must be said quickly and be off. Indeed many, before realizing It. find them selves a few blocks away, breathless and walking fast. Browning. For a three-year period there was no keeping him out of the spotlight. He pivoted among the most astounding fables and his personal staff was reputedly regimented with three press agents, tom-tommlng his various marrlagea and bizarre manner of dress. His last sweep Into head lines resulted from the enormous or chids on his dinner coat lapels at the theater. Then he apparently tired of the buzz-fuzz and dropped out of the parade. Despite eccentricities, he's a shrewd real estate operator and among, few who rode through the depression with a neat profit.

To the Editor: Your article on Roosevelt's peace plan was particularly Interesting to me. About 45 years ago I spent a couple of years In France and Ger many. Not as a tourist, but aa a student and worker. I had to asso ciate with all classes and speak their language, and X can testify to the fact that in those daya It was the people, as well as the political lead ers, who wanted war. In France, among the people, we heard inces santly "Le revenge" and "Soisner au blanc" "the revenge and "to bleed to the white." Thla latter a butcher's' phrase and meant they'd bleed the' hated Germans to the point of help-1 lessnesa. The German people all had a- hateful contempt for the French. I Nationalism has not decreased since tha war. and it la safe to say that it )s still the people of those nations. 1 more particularly the Germans, that want war. Here in the United States the people aa a whole don't want war. but I think U President Roosevelt were to mix Incognito with the people of France and Germany, he'd find them still the same as they were 4A years ago. Vox popult. vox del. That phrase has been shouted out by leaders of the people for many generations. Yet all thinking men and women know that the voice of the people la Just aa apt to stand for blind sentiment, envy and hatred, and when this popular state of mind becomes too strong we have war. The popular movement in Germany to persecute the Jewa Is an example. Of course man is a fighting animal, and no wonder. For about hundred thousand years, when our ancestors resembled rather the gorilla than the human being of the present, they had to fight to exist. Moreover, ever a'.nce then the world has been in a perpetual state of warfare. scribing Its quota of men and equip ment. These quotas to band together to enforce International law, order and peace. Much the same as communi ties have policemen and the sheriff for the same purpose. Referring to the Japs being Isolated and condemned. It reminds one of seeing the mote in your brother's eye. hut not seeing the beam in your own eye. The Justice of a war Is good deal a matter of precedent. The Japa wanted to expand their com merce and colonize. They found it impossible to do this In Manchuria until they conquered It, as It was overrun with bandits. The other countries said: "Let the Chinese gov ern themselves, nd get rid of their own banditry.'":- Well, this sounds plausible. But let's see what the Brit ish did to the Boers less than 40 years ago. A lot of Englishmen owned mines In the country owned by the Duth Boers. The Boers were no miners, but they saw a good opportunity of getting their share out of the rich mines owned and operated by the English In their country. So they taxed the foreign mine owners heav ily and kept increasing the taxes. The English mine owners would stand It no longer. They appealed to the home government for help. An army of 200,000 men waa sent to massacre bered four to one and were not as bered four to one and wer enot as well equipped as the British. Never theless, they made a magnificent fight or It, and most of them died like heroea. If the English mine owners did not think the taxes fair, they had a right to get out of the country but no right to slaughter 25,000 Boers. Are the Japs doing any worse, or even as bad. No wonder they take no heed of the disapproval of any or all other nations. It all depends upon who does the killing. Yours for peace and goodwill to all nations for the coming year. SYDNEY 6.

HEAD, Applegate, December 28. Comment on the vs Nezvs Day pensea Involved in the relief pro gram. These extraordinary expenses are financed by BORROWING, and by way of kidding ourselves we do not include them in the ordinary bud get. If we did. the deficit would be too staggering to contemplate. TENTATIVE budget estimates for NEXT year, we read, are set down at present about as follows: Income, $3,400,000,000; ORDINARY outgo, $3,- 600.000.000. Those figures would seem to ln dlcate a surplus of some eight hun dred million dollars. By FRANK JENKINS THE deficit in the ordinary ex penses of the government of the United States In this fiscal year will be about a BILLION dollars. That Is to say, the government will spend for its ordinary expenses about a billion dollars more than It takes In In taxes. - IT HAS been only about a quar ter of a century since the total ordinary expenses of the government of the United States were less than a half billion dollars a year. We're headed for SOMEWHERE, anyway, arent we? wherever It may be. REMEMBER. please. that the : ORDINARY expenses of the : UT wait: TOTAL expenditures for next year, including the extraordinary outgo Involved In the recovery pro gram, are estimated to be somewhere near SIX BILLION dollars. " So, you see, if the figures are any where near correct, the ACTUAL def icit will be In the neighborhood of two and a half billions. That la to say, the actual DEF ICIT next year will be approximately FIVE TIMES the total running ex penses of the government a quarter of a century ago. A TJTHORIZED costa of the recov ery program SO FAR AUTHOR IZED exceed thirteen billion dollars. If you are any longer capable of looking at or hearing big figures and grasping their meaning, you must be staggered by that total. It Is truly vast especially when one remembers that it will have to be repaid by taxation. M STILL, remember this: The total sum loaned by us to foreign countries, to help them fight the war a sum that In the main is being blithely repudiated by these countries waa In excess of thirteen billion dollars. We survived that staggering ex travagance or at least we have so far. So perhaps we can survive' the cost of recovery. A GLOOMY citizen, contemplating the recovery program. Its costs and its methods, said to thla writer the other day: "It's a bad situation: X doubt if we can survive It." "Pehans.,, this writer answered, "but then we were exceedingly sick, and when we are exceedingly sick, we don't hesitate at drastic reme dies." "Possibly not," the gloomy citizen answered, "but I'm not so sure It wouldn't have been better for us to have died." FEW of us, unfortunately, are as gloomy-minded as that. We'd rather go on living and hoping. It Is by going on living and hop irg. you know, and NOT by Just giving up and dying, that civiliza tion has been brought to Its present staje of development.
