Ye Smudge Pot By Arthur Perry. Congress Defies the President ET us suppose you are managing a big business. J-.t the start of the fiscal year, you inform your stockholders ihat they must give you say $400,000 with which to conduct that business for 12 months. That is your budget. You have figured necessary expenses, contingent expenses, everything required, and the $400,000 is your maximum. You promise not to exceed that. You will go below it if you can. Six months pass. The board of directors call upon you to authorize the expenditure of $100,000 more than your budget allowed. - You ask whyf The answer is a small but influential group of stockholders demand it. They want an extra dividend declared exclusively for themselves. What as manager of your company do you do t Grant it ! . You do NOT. That is you don't if you have any regard for your plain duty. You say in effect : "I wn not representing a minority of stockholders, I am representing ALL of them. And I un also representing the ' beat Interest of thla company. I gave my word that I would conduct thla business for a year; for ' no mora than (400,000. all my plana are baaed upon that outlay, and the expectation of my stockholders are baaed upon it alao. Tell that group of minority stockholders to Jump In the lake, for by the eternal 80 and So, I have given my word and Intend to keep It." IITELL, change from the second person to the third, and change from a private business,' to the biggest public business on earth the United States government, and you have a fairly accurate representation of what President Eoose volt said in his veto message of the veterans pay increase, and why he said it. The president as manager of this country, presented his budget of expenses to the peopleof this country as stockholders, and then congress as the board of directors, demanded that that budget be exceeded by some $228,000,000 because a certain minority of the people (stockholders) demanded a benefit of this amount for THEMSELVES. There's the picture. ' ' It's merely a business proposition. Did President Roosevelt do right or did he do wrong?

A . high school girl asks whether we breathe through the skin. She said her physiology class had an argument about it. The in structor said we do breathe thru the skin. Of course . we do not breathe through the skin. But If the physi ology Instructor In high school says we do some of the pupils will probably believe it is so. They will go out Into the world to become wiseacres. They will make the meanest customers for honest doctors to deal with, but won't they be meat for the quacks and nos trums mongers? So far as I know or believe, no antiseptic, germicide or disinfectant as yet discovered Is worth a hoot In the treatment of any Illness. Anti septics perhaps have some value In surgical dressings, In gargles, mouth washes, sprays, douches or lotions, the chief purpose being to prevent the spread of Infection. Unconscious altruism, the childish faith of the wiseacre laity In antiseptic gargles and the like In the treatment of sore throats and putative "colds"; uncon scious and Ironic, or moronic if you prefer. Wiseacre laymen cherish the notion that If you use strong enough anti septic remedies often enough you can heal" anything quickly. Of course. they have never been apprised that the antiseptic powerful enough to kill or seriously cripple germs is even more likely to kill or cripple the deli cate young new tissue cells which are essential In any healing process. Many laymen harbor a fond fancy that the regular dally application of an antiseptic gargle, nasal spray or similar remedy will prevent putative "colds," flu. Infantile paralysis, diph theria, lethargic encephalitis or what ever the community happers to be excited about. It is questionable whether any such "precaution" is ever effective, and there Is some reason to believe that the constant or fre quent removal of the normal mucous secretions from nose and throat, as well as the slight irritation produced by tha foreign chemical itself, may weaken the natural defenses and I favor invasion of the mucous mem brane by disease germs which might I otherwise have perished in the ordi nary way, by being entangled In the normal mucous film and destroyed by the natural phagocytes. However, we strive to please, and in the family medicine cupboard, we think It well to keep (1) a tin or carton of powdered boric acid (from an ounce to a pound), (3) a glass stoppered oz. vial of tincture of lcdln (spell it Iodine if you are old fogy) with a convenient dropper, (3) any one of the numerous chlorln prepa rations suitable for disinfecting the person or for disinfecting drinking water. AH these are antiseptics, There is still another Item which might be Included with "antiseptics,1 tho that Is not the reason why we keep a bottle of it in the cupboard four ounces of 5 per cent phenol so lution one part phenol dissolved In 20 parts of water.

Record) There were two things that led to the Democratic party being put Into power Hoover driving the soldiers out of Washington and the Democratic party promla- lng to spread the wealth. Then, after Hoover drove the soldiers out, wo came along and made Hoover look like a "piker" by cutting down the compensation of the soldiers and putting them out of the hospitals. Hoover drove out people who were able to walk, but we put people out of hospltala when they could not walk. (Laughter.) The Constitution Overturned 'T'HIS over-riding of the president' veto, both by the House and Senate not only definitely marks the end of President Roosevelt's honeymoon the final collapse of that slogan "stand by tho president ",--but it reveals one of the most serious threats to tho success and survival of our free democratio. institutions. It is the threat of an organized and aggressive minority, in con flict with the disorganized and, more or less indifferent, major ity. This factor has caused serious trouble in the past, unless checked by an aroused public opinion, it promises to cause even more serious trouble in the future. . - ' A MOTHER thing. This surprising action shows how, not only tho fundamental theories of our forefathers regarding popular government, but governmental theories which havo en dured in Europe for centuries, have in recent' years been com pletely overthrown. This theory was, briefly, that the encroachments of the exec utive, comprised the outstanding danger to the people, that the king, for example, had to be controlled by parliament; and in this country, the president had to be controlled by the con gress. That is why the taxing power was placed in parliament; that is why the framers of the constitution provided that this same power must be vested in tho congress and that all money hills must originate in that popular assembly, the Lower House. - - a . e .

To the Editor:' As the fiscal year of tho Chamber of Commerce draws to & close, a summary of the' achievements of that body will, of course, be presented. The usual listing of material accom plishments, which is the yardstick by which chambers are often meas ured, may be expected from the man ager. While the material achievements are of vital Importance, the Intan gibles often mean more to the happi ness of a community. With the Med ford chamber the intangibles are of such nature that our manager, tact fully modest, will omit them, hence this letter. To us the outstanding accomplish ment of J938-'34 is the re-establishment of the old fashioned neighborly feeling, that kind of friendship among folk that crystal izes In a co-ordination of effort for the common wel fare. During the heyday of boom times, i we, to a degree, lost that Intangible something that built our great west-; era commonwealth, that something the pioneer had that made western hospitality a national byword, that kindred feeling that made no man a stranger In the great western country. We lost that Intimate man-to-man contact that build undying friend ships, that cemented folk in a com munity effort to promote the peaoa and happiness of all by a friendly Interest In each and every Individual. That our chamber has made much progress In re-establishing- the pio neer spirit is shown by the expressed desire of almost every community in the valley for a Jackson county chamber of commerce. This la Just another way of saying; "We like you and you like us." To have revived that spirit when the community was torn with strife, when economic conditions were so . bad that self-preservation had to be the predominating nature of every individual, is an achievement of which the manager of any chamber of commerce should be proud. It Indicates4 the setting aside of selfish motives. It manifests a spirit of "all for one, one for all," the only spirit by which a chamber can survive. For this. If for nothing else, our manager. Mr. Banwell, deserves the everlasting gratitude of every citizen of Jackson county. GATES & LYDIARD. By W. A. Gatea. ' March 28, 1934. Pioneer Leader Thanks Chamber for Luncheon 'I believe this to be one of the nicest compliments we have received during the present fiscal year." ThlB was the statement of w. S. Bolger, president of the Medford Chamber of Commerce when he received the fol lowing letter from John B. Griffin, president of the Southern Oregon Pioneer society: "Gentlemen: I want to thank the president and the members of the Chamber of Commerce for their kind ness and thoughtful ness in giving this banquet to the three-quarters of a century pioneers, who saw this val ley when It was only a wilderness, Inhabited by hostile Indians, grizzly bear, and howling coyotes, and have lived to see It grow Into one of the most beautiful places on the Pacific coast. Not only that, but we have lived In a wonderful age and have seen more progress, more wonder ful Inventions, than have ever taken place In all the world before. "And we are thankful to the su preme ruler of the world for being permitted to live to see all these things, and we are still on the Job to help Medford make the Diamond Jubilee one of the grandest affairs that has ever been pulled off in the ; state of Oregon, and we can rest as sured that it will be done, for we have the men and women who have the brains and the indomlnatable spirit to carry out anything they undertake and who are unacquainted with the word 'fall.' "And now, I will say to Mr. Banwell and the Chamber of Commerce, that we appreciate their kindness In giv ing us this banquet more than words can tell, and you sure took the right steps to win our hearts and that waa through our stomach. Need I say more?" Mr. Griffin also sent the Chamber of Commerce the following original poem:: I love you, dear old Oregon, I love your valleys and hills, I love ydur lakes and rivers, I love your rippling rills. I love the trees in the forest The redwood, the oak, and the pine, I love the rain in the winter. And I love your nice sunshine.
