To those whose memories go back eight years, I something very surprising happened the other day, J Eight years ago Charles Evans Hughes wag a big corporation lawyer, one of the highest paid in the United States. He be longed to the Union League club, parted his whiskers in the middle, and enjoyed more than a speaking acquaintance with J. P. Morgan. Someone mentioned him ag a probable appointee to the United States supreme court. What a furore was aroused, particularly among the liberal Democrats. What fulminating editorials were written, and in radical circles what resolutions were adopted ! A few years later Mr. Hughes was not only appointed to the supreme court bu at the death of William" Howard Taft, was elevated to chief justice. Again the storm broke. President Hoover had sold out to Wall Street, and "big Business again had its plutocratic hireling presiding over the U. S. supreme court."

It sustained the right of a state (in this case Minnesota) to declare a three 'year moratorium on mortgageg. The opinion was written by Chief Justice Hughes. It was as clear cut and decisive a victory for human rights against property rights, as one could imagine. The two outstanding Democratic liberals on the court, Brandcis and Cardoza, supported Hughes as did Roberts aud Stone. The other four dissented. We haven't the text of the decision, Judging by reports, however, it must be legally, the biggest boost for Roosevelt's New Deal, that has occurred since March 4th last. In effect, it no doubt maintains, that in time of great national crisis, execu tive and legislative control, for the protection of the people, (may be extended even to the point of infringing upon formerly recognized rights of property. j-Jy&2j' I This sustains the very corner-stone of Roosevelt's New Deal.

That Im presses the un. wary reader who Imagines the trlckater la a medical author ity or something, To bolster up the trick dentist's weird imsglno' tlons against the use of aluminum vessels for cook ing and containing food, he cites or uotes a number of "eminent auiuuu. ties," the majority oi wnom ate scure charlatans of one atrlpe or an other, but well the shrewd dentist who makes a noise like a doctor knows that the simple folk who take his propaganda seriously will never see the humor of that. Medicine Is making rapid strides these days and not all the strides are In a circle. I should not be aaton. Ished If some one were to discover tomorrow that there la a definite quantity of aluminum normally pres ent In the body ana tnat a ncnuuj person requires a regular dally ration of aluminum to maintain optimum health. Formerly we thought that copper is rather poisonous and that It la foreign to the healthy body. But in tne past few years our view has ohanged. Now we know that thero is a small amount of copper normally present In the body, and that a minute trace ot copper Is essential and desirable In the dally ration. Especially Is It de sirable where there Is any degree ot anemia. Hence the Incorporation of a whirl of copper in the Iron tonic for the blood. If a child or adult awallows as much as one grain of copper sulphate dissolved In a spoonful or two of water, the medicine acts aa a prompt emetic, and for this reason I recom mend that a half dozen tablet of copper sulphate each containing one sroin be kept In the emergency chest or pocket first aid kit for poisoning emergenlcs. In such an emergency the copper sulphate acts Instantly. where ordinary emetlca takes many mlnutas or fall to act at all. My own baby once got hold of a bottle of corrosive sublimate tablets In my office, and had put at least one In her mouth. A dose of copper sulphate brought Instant ejection. I owo this practical knowledge to a great phy sician Dr. Abraham Jacobl, God rest his soul. The same quantity, one grain, la enough copper sulphate to put In the pint of Iron tonic. Don't let anybody scare you about this. Just purchase from the druggist the standard, of ficial Ingredients, namely, a singly grain of copper sulphate (otherwise called "blue vitriol" and "blue stone") and four ounces of Iron and ammo nium citrate (this la one medicine which la official In the Pharmaco poea, so that no half-baked druggist or drug clerk can tell you he doesn't understand what you want, unless he Is an utter Imbecile). Put the Iron In a pint bottle, and fill the bottle up with water that haa been boiled. When the medicine la all dissolved, drop In the copper sulphate, and shake up the medicine once more. Now you are all set. The dose of this medicine for simple hypochromic anemia Is a teaspoonful after food three times a day, and you should continue It for two or three months. A good way to take the dose la In a little water, sweetened and flavored with fruit Juice.' It does not upset digestion or cause constipation. Zt does not Injure the teeth. It does and should blacken the stools.

We can't Imagine how our 5-year- old daughter got whooping cough for we had taken her no place, and she had not played with any suspicious children for a long while. B. R. T. Answer Adults or children may have whooping cough In moderate form and the nature of the disease Is not recognized. Persons who have had prophylactic vaccination, or those who have received the "vaccine" In the early stage of whooping cough, may have the disease In a form that escapes recognition, yet they may In fect others.

Answer Thank you. Our readers may put your remedy to the test. In obstinate hiccoughs relief la often obtained by rebreathlng into an ordl nary paper sack, such as grocers use, for a few minutes. This elves the effect of Inhalations of carbon dioxide and air. Of course the paper bag must be held closely over nose and mouth. (Copyright, 1934, John P. Dllle Co.) Ed.

An airplane propeller driven by a small motor is used by a Japanese farmer at El Centre, Cal., to prevent frost from settling on tomato vines. IT SHOCKED the stock market, 1 of course you have read, but not very badly. If you follow the little table of averages printed dally In thla news paper, you must have noted that the average haa slid off only a trifle more than three plonts since the an nouncement of the ' government's program. Bales haven't been heavy. On Sat urday, for example, transfers amount ed to only 600,000 shares. That does not Indicate any great amount of fear of We future on the part of the owners of securities. SUPPOSE, Just to get an Idea of Its probable effects, we do a little analyzing of this borrowing program. Where will the money come from? What will be done with It after It la borrowed? How will It be repaid? Answers to these questions, if they are fairly accurate, ought to en lighten ua somewhat. H FIRST, where will the money come from? Why, It will ccrne from people wholiave money, of course, and who have confidence enough 'In their gov. ernment to lend It. People of this sort will buy the government's bonds. The point Is that the government will be borrowing from Its OWN PEOPLE; not from foreign countries. That Is to say. It will stay right here at home. 11HAT will be done with the M money after It Is borrowed? well. It will be SPENT spent for all the various purposes covered by the government's vast recovery pro gram: some of It for building roads; some of It for building batleshlps; some of it for building battleships; power plants; huge sums of It di rectly In wages as a part of the CWA program wihich la now furnishing employment to people who didn't have employment' before. Thnt Is to say, the government will borrow It from one person and spend It with another. A N OTHER point: The government will borrow this money from people who have It but are afraid to USE IT THEM SELVES, because at present they have confidence In nothing but the government, and after borrowing It will PUT IT TO WORK. Otherwise, at least for the pres ent, It wouldn't .have gone to work. How will be repaid? The answer Is simple. It will be repaid Out of the proceeds of TAXA TION. If you have an Income, you will be taxed on it to repay these loans. Every time you buy a glaaa of beer or a package of cigarettes, you will pay taxes directly to help repay these Joans. Every time you buy ANYTHING WHATEVER, you will pay taxea Indirectly to help re pay these loans, because taxes are a part of the cost of doing business, and have to be added to the final selling price of every article that la produced. With the money collected from taxes, here, there and everywhere, those who are loaning money to the government now will be repaid. IP THE reasoning here set forth Is accurate, It must be apparent that the governments present borrowing and spending activities constitute a vast process of putting money In motion. The government takes it from those who have It, but are afraid to use It, and spends It with those who need It, either for food, clothing and shelter, or In order to keep their businesses going. In other words, the government takes Idle money and puts It to work. In the course of time, through the process of taxation. It win gather In thla money again and return It to those from whom It waa taken. Viewed In this light, these vast borrowings don't look so terrible af ter all. do they?

Now this "Elysla," It develops, Is a nudist. She was filmed at one nudist colonies in southern Califor nia to be flaunted before the wanton eyea of mixed audiences of men and women all over the continent. When this picture appeared In Portland a few weeks ago, It was so ranK mai a lot of decent movie fans who saw It nearly fell over backwards. Straightway a certain aclntlllatlng society debutante of the Rose City sprang to Its ethical defense. "Never In her life," she said, "had she real ized that nudism was such a refining thing conductive to culture and purity of mind until she Identified herself with the movement." Well, these nudists and nudist colonies, la dles and gentlemen, are nothing new under the aun. Most older people remember that In the days of the Iniquitous oid-tlme saloon there was one in almost every town. Before the earthquake San Fran- cls&p had one Bbout five miles square.- Then they called It by the raucous name of "Barbary coast, and It la well known that the per sonnel of that colony was 98 per cent young women, utterly detached from decent society by reason of having fallen to th. lowest level of Immorality and vice. In my humble Judgment there la no surer criterion of the moral degenerwy of America than this precipitate pell-m.ll rush ot men and women to devour vulgar movies. Why should a picture be permitted to show In Ashland or Medford that children under 16 can't look at? If the children of us lath- era and mothers can't aee what we do, why should we Insist on being taken along to see what they do? In the good old guide book for ethical conduct It la written concerning the flrat pair of 'nudists": Unto Adam and also to hla wife. did the Lord God make coats of skin and clothed them."
