Editorial Correspondence EN HOUTE LOS ANGELES, VIA THE OLD GREEN BUG, Feb. 7. Hope Southern Oregon got some of the rain that fell in Northern California todHy. It started to sprinkle when we left about 8 a. m. but only half hcartedly until we reached Shasta City. . The mountain was shrouded in an inky black cloud from base to summit, then a terrific gale from the south sprang up, and whiff, whoocy how it blew and how it poured! In no time the little Sacramento was a dashing torrent, rocks and gravel came sliding down from the canyon walls, and be fore Redding was reached there were good sized lakeft in many of the fields. The garage man at Redding said it was the first hard rain in a long time but there -had been a shower the day before. Hard to believe looking back at the Sacramento river, full from bank to bank with turbulent water, red brick in color. A young man walked up at Redding and asked if we weren't from Medford. An answer in the affirmative brought the in formation that the young man's name is Snider, M. H. S. '-'9, who broke his foot when broad jumping at the fair grounds, in a high school track meet some years ago. He started the day before hitch hiking from Medford to Los Angeles where he has a job in the radio department of some studio. Got a ride to Weed, then to Redding where he spent the night, but in the storm raging cars were few, and Gladly gave him a lift, but he had to work for it. Drafted him as chauffeur, and as the windshield wiper went on a strike, the top leaked like a sieve, and Snider didn't bring his umbrella. He qan qualify for U-boat service in the next war even though his busted foot kept him out of the last one. So dark we had to have lights at four in the afternoon, and had the car skidded from the pavement it would have promptly disappeared in the slimy ooze that lined it. At the very' worst of it, near Williams, what should loom out of the clouds directly to our right but a huge monoplane, flying low, just grazing the tree tops, Snider who like most yoting men is something of an aviator said he was sure it was the regular coast passenger plane on the Medford run. It disappeared as suddenly as it had come, in the rain and fog and mist. Bought a Call Extra as soon as we struck the Berkeley Ferry and was relieved to j see it was for the noting in France, not another airplane trag edy. Hope to learn soon, what the plane was, and what became of it. Perhaps it came down to get its bearings and then shot I up above the storm. Here's hoping! , . ,, r, ... , , One thing is certain all California garage men arc sold on tie gaeg tax.

I can sympathize with the girls who discover all of a sudden that they have grown fat But their sorrow la tempered with hope. Baldness la com paratlvely a sufficient cause for deapair. The mistake thousands of girls make when they perceive alas that they have put on many pounds of horrid superfluous flesh, is that they decide to reduce Immediately, the quicker the better, they think, and plenty of merchants ere glad to cater to that vain unreasonable hope. The fat did not come suddenly; It cannot be made to leave suddenly, without grave risk to health, to say nothing of good looks. Too rapid reduction la certain to leave more or less unsightly flabbl ness If not actual wrinkles. Whereas reduction that Is as gradual as was the accumulation of the excess weight may be achieved without Injury to health or appearance, Indeed with benefit to both. Besides, rarely has any Individual the grim determlna tlon necessary to stick to a severe reduction regimen more than a day or two. But most overweight aduUs can follow a sane, moderate reduction schedule for &s many weeks or months as may be advisable. By a sane, mod orate reduction regimen I mean re ducing at the rate of not more than two or three pounds a week or better say six to eight pounds In a month. As a matter of fact a person seldom accumulates excess weight as fast as that. Before you "go on a diet" you should study some practical arith metic, learn to count calories at a glance, much as a cafeteria cashUr estimates the damage when you ex hibit your trayful. Such a familiar ity with calories Is especially helpful In respect to the chief Items of the diet, the everyday victuals which aw mainly responsible for the dirty work. The stereotyped tables showing how many calories in the pound of this and that are too formidable forothers than experts. A more practical un derstanding of the nutritive value of the commot staples Is gained by learning how many calories In ordin ary helpings.

A ball of butter, as served In many eating places, yields about 80 calories. Sugar Each ounce of cane, beet or other sugar yields 110 calories. A teaspoonful of sugar represents 30 calories. Candy may be estimated as equiv alent to sugar, ounce for ounce, or piece for piece. Bread, white, brown or whole wheat, Is usually worth 70 cal ' orles for a slice. Toast ditto. Cake or cookies may be credited with caloric value equivalent to that of sugar, weight for weight. An egg, an apples, an orange each yield IS calories. A glassful of milk (8 ounces) yields 160 calories. (As a pound of milk yields 335 calories, each ounce represents . approximately 30 calories.) A banana or a potato represents 100 calories.

"Dollar Cut 41 Per A news paragraph below the head line says: "President Roosevelt to day revalued the gold dollar at 69.06 per cent of its former weight.' The new gold dollar will contain IS and five-twenty-firsts grains of gold nine -tenths fine. The former gold .dollar contained 36.8 grains. ERE la what average, ordinary people, such as you and I, want to know: "What does all this mean to me?" And here la the answer, w.hlch is substantially accurate so far as the present and the Immediate future are concerned : NOTHING AT ALL. IP YOU want to prove or disprove that answer, go out and test it for yourself. Take a dollar and go up and down the street and spend it for ordinary necessities. Then compare what you get In return for what your got In return for a dollar similarly spent a month ago. You will find that TODAY you get substantially the same amount in return for your dollar that you got a month ago. Yet today your dollar contains only 59.06 per cent as much gold aa It contained a month ago. "W ELL, you say, puzzled, aa you have a right to be, "what la It all about, anyway? Why all this thimblerigging with the gold content of the dollar? What's all the shoot ing about?" Putting it as simply aa such a subject can be put, which ISNT very simple, the shooting Is princi pally at foreign trade. , Let's see If we can illustrate: Suppose you're buying a shipload of French wine. Remember, you can't pay for this wine with dollars. The French wine maker doesn't want dollars, any more than you would want francs is you sold some French man a shipload of potatoes. You wouldn't know what to do with the francs, and .he wouldn't know what to do with the dollars. So, in order to pay for your wine. you would have to buy francs. That is, you would have to EXCHANGE your dollars for francs. That is exactly what foreign ex change means Just changing . the money of one country into the money of another, so that people do ing business between the two coun tries can pay for w.hat they buy. N OW let's get down to the nub of the question: Before we went off the gold stand- anjt yOU could buy about 2& and a half franca for your dollar. Now, with the gold dollar devalued, you can buy only about 15 and a' balf franca, Obviously, you could buy MORE WINE with 35 franca than you can buy with 15. The full value gold dollar, you see, MADE IT EASIER to buy goods abroad and Import them In compe- tltlon with our own Industries, and I MADE IT HARDER to sell our own ! goods abroad. THAT'S aboutthe long and the short of this whole gold-content business, of which we have been reading so much. " When you come right down to It, it's really Just an other sort of protective tariff. CHANGING the gold content of a country's money doesn't neces sarily affect very much the INTER NAL buying power of that money. England, you know, went off the gold standard long ago, thus reduc ing the gold content of the pound. But British prices didn't change much. That Is to say. in terms of what the British SOLD EACH OTH ER, the value of the pound remained about the same. It was only In terms of what they SOLD THE FOREIGNER, or bought from him, that changed. That la about what will happen in our case. SO DON'T get all hot and bothered about the dollar In your pocket. It's still a perfectly good dollar worth, for your purposes, Just about m-hst It was worth before Its spec tacular devaluation. You aren't buying wine in France, you know, or pretrels In Germany, or roast beef In England. You're buying bread and buetter and meat and clothes and house rent right here In the United States, and for that purpose your dollar Is going to be worth about the same It has been worth. AS PEOPLE regain their confidence and money begins to pass from hand to hand more rapidly, so that It becomes easier to get. Just aa ducks and geese are easier to get when more of them are Tying, the purchasing power of your dollar will go down. When that happens, we will begin to complain that the cost cf living is GOING UP But the proceu will be gradual to gradual that you won't notice Arrest Ordered By U. S. Senate William P.

Communications Cilvc the Women a Break. To the Editor: I received so many handshakes over that little article I wrote ln regatd to the sheriff's office, and so many women congratulated me, I am going to write some more. Here in Jackson county It seems like there are more men that think they are qualified for the sheriff's office and more seek ing it than any other office in the county and nearly everyone of them gets a certain number of followers, regardless of their qualifications. Now, in my opinion, a man or a woman either, for that matter, when they make application to have their names put on a primary ballot, should be compelled to take an examination as to their ability to fill the bill and when they are weighed ln the balance and. found wanting, and have to depend upon a deputy and a weman at that to keep the books and do all the office work, let them step aside and let someone run It who can fill the bill. ' In my humble opinion, if a man la not qualified to run it, I am in favor of jutting in a woman as sheriff and not have to pay a man two or three hundred dollars a month to walk around with his hands ln hla pockets and now and then sign hla name to some paper. Give the woman the office and when there Is some bold, bad man to deal with, let her call on the traf fic officers, and If you hear my gentle voice, he will be on his way in short order and no fool in. The time has passed when It la necessary for a sheriff to go around with a big six-shooter hanging to his belt, and anyway, if he got Into a scrap with bad man he couldn't hit the door, probably, of a bam If he was on. the inside and the door shut.- So let the traffic officers do the work, if there is any shooting to be done; that's what they are paid for. good-looking fellows en the force who god-looking fellows on the force who would turn somersaults all over them selves to get the Job if there wsa a good-looking woman in the office. Well. I guess I have said enough, as I have already had two or three fellows that I have good reason to believe are figuring on throwing their hats Into the ring, give me the silent nod since I wrote the other article. Well, boys, keep ln a good humor; somebody's got to talk. JOHN B. GRIFFIN Medford, Ore., Feb. 6, 1934.
