Does Japan Want War?
JAPAN follows up its triiil balloon seeking a protectorate over
China with a formal demand that no foreign nation interfere
with its leadership in the Far East.
From Geneva, the headquarters of the League of Nations,
comes the pronouncement that Japan will oppose various formB
of foreign aid to China "under whatever guise" for Japan must
fulfill her duty as an international defender of the peace in
eastern Asia."
Defender of the Peace 1 What delicious irony these diplo
matic shadow boxers indulge in I
Following the same line of reasoning then any bully walking
down Main Street here in Medford, who ordered all pedestrians
off the sidewalk, would not be disturbing the peace, but DE
FENDING it.
For what Japan tolls the nations of the world they can NOT
do, each nation has a perfect right TO do.
China is an independent nation. She has a perfect right to
buy what she wishes from other nations, and they have the
same right to sell to her.
But Japan declares if the purchases happen to be airplanes
or copper, or cotton, or even money that is if China secures
foreign loan from. France, Japan can step in and declare
"hands off I ' ' This would be endangering peace in the Fa
East, and peace in that part of the world, it. is Japan's responsi
bility to maintain.
What a farce!

A new era of life, so to speak,

couple of yoars ago with little or
nothing, have got fairly started
on the road to prosperity. During
the past season there was 690

point, Ind Jail, Thora also scorns
to be a public desire that Mr. Dll
llnger continue at largo. His latest
host, Mr. Emll Wanatka, expressed his
views on citizenship, to wit: "Sure,
I knew It was Dllllnger. Indiana
couldn't hold him, so vy should I
try." The government should now
try Its luck "holding" Mr. Wanatka.

Clvlo leaders of tho state announce,
"tho apathy of the voters will domi
nate the primary, and a light vote
will be cast, despite the Importance
It carries." If apathy was designated
as laalneaa (which It Is) there would
not ba so much "apathy of the
voters."
ACCEPTING Japan's socalled "Monroe Doctrine" would
mean making Japan an absolute dictator in the Far East
acquiescing in China following the fate of Korea and Man
churia, and virtually stopping all foreign trade in that part of
the world, except what trade Japan might sanction .
There is no precedent for this in America's Monroe doctrine
This country never told the monarchies of pre-Victorian Europi
that they couldn't trade with South America. We told them
that if they tried to establish monarchies in that part of th
world, through conquest, we would regard such action as an
unfriendly act.
IF Japan should persist in this policy then it is difficult to see
how serious trouble can be avoided.
Our own view is that Japan will not persist in it. For while
Nippon is undoubtedly in control of the militarists, we can t
believe that she wishes to fight all the rest of the world.
More likely that this startling manifesto was issued for
specifio purpose, to stop some action that Japan believes is
contemplated in China, and when this purpose is achieved, the
matter will be dropped. '
Back to the Land?
A S the following editorial from tho Portlnnd Journal is based
upon & letter from County Judge Day, and gives the
"Portland" view of what the Back to the, Land movement in
this state should be, we believe it will interest the people of
Southern Oregon: '
"I have observed criticism that stnte and county official are
not co-operating In the 'Sack-to-the -Land' and 'Self Help'
movements, I have been appointed, as one of the committee
of three In this county, to act on this matter, and X would like
to ask what plan you have to propose."
Tills is from a letter that has coma to the Journal from Earl
B, Day of Medford. county Judge of Jackson county. "I,
frankly," Judge Day adds, "am at a loss to know what Is wanted
of us, and would appreciate advice or suggestion."
There are many county officials In Oregon who ara In Judge
Day's position.
Oregon people propose
That, under the leadership and direction of the governor of
Oregon, the Lee-Beckman land bill be put Into actual effect;
That the state relief commission harmonica and co-ordinate
the work to be done by county committees this will be only
obedience to what Is now the law of Oregon;
That the federal relief administration In Oregon make avail
able to regularly constituted authority aa prescribed by state
law In Oregon the assistance and the financial resources neces
sary to make the subsistence homesteads movement a federally
sustained project;
That Dr. M. L. Wilson, director of the federal subsistence
homesteads division, be asked to confirm hi verbal assurance
and assign to Oregon a subsistence homesteads project, and
. that this project be harmonized with the work done by the
federal relief administration and by state-county authority.
The Journal has discovered an attitude that needy people
cannot and will not work, and should, at any rate, be supported
by a dole because machine labor la cheaper than hand labor on
public projects.
A certain number of the needy cannot work, because of old
age, infancy and mental or physical Incapacity. It Is normally
assumed that for these reasons 10 per cent, of us must be sup
ported by the other 90 per cent, of us. But, under the depres
sion, tha dependent people became a third of all of us. The
additions are employable people. Yet many of them cannot s
again be absorbed by Industry, business or commercial agri
culture. They Include many who have the energy, the aptitude
and the oharncter necessary for subsistence on the land, If given
an opportunity.
That Is what the federal government set out to do with
the subsistence homesteads and the rural section of the emer- -gency
relief organisation. That Is what Oregon set out to do
with the Lee-Beckman bill. And there are a lot more folks than
Judge Day watting to see what's to be done about It. There
are thousands of prospective, anxious and eager subsistence
'- homesteaders.
Where is tha leadership of Oregon?
A capitalistic raror has played
havoc with a local Btnnd of whlftkers,
the President of the Soviet should
have seen.
The Spectator cannot but recall the
edict that went forth promptly from
the liquor commission that no win
dow displays of liquor were to be
made by merchants. Immediately the
walls, sidings, roofs and "arlels" of
Portland burgeoned forth In a color
ful dlsplny of beverage promotion.

THE CRI COMPLETE IN TWENTY-FOUR VARIETIES
You never know nor does your doc
tor what your putative "cold" Is go
ing to be tomorrow. Just run your
furtive eye over
the following list
of respiratory In
feet Ions or defi
nite Illnesses
which commonly
begin with symp
toms of ordinary
coryza;
Acute o r y z a
(distemper,
head "cold,
acute catarrh.
acute rhinitis)
Acute pharyngt
tla (sore throat)
Follicular tonsllltls
Acute perltonsllltls (quinsy)
Vincent's angina (trench mouth)
Diphtheria ,
Acute sinusitis
Scarlet fever (or scarletina)
Measles (rubelo, morbllli)
Acute laryngitis (hoarseness, loss of
voice)
Pleurisy
Acute bronchitis (chest "cold")
Pneumonia (lung fever)
Influenza (grip) (flu)
Lethargic encephlltia (American
"sleeping sickness")
Acute anterior poliomyelitis (Infan
tile paralysis)
Acute epidemic cerebro-splnal menin
gitis (spotted fever, brain fever)
Croup
Pertusis (whooping cough)
German measles (rotheln)
Chicken pox (varicella)
Smallpox (variola)
Pneumonic plague
Tuberculosis (consumption, phthisis).
These are all reclgnozcd at present
as respiratory Infections, the germ or
virus of the disease entering the body
through the lining of nose or throas,
and the Infection spreading from one
person to another In the secretions
from nose and throat. In some of the
Illnesses named there Is usually no
marked coryza at the onset say In
smallpox, though even chlckenpax
and smallpox are known to be respir
atory Infections and to spread Just as
does diphtheria or tuberculosis or or
dinary coryza. and not from the skin
rash, as a rule.
From the list of possibilities in the
putative "cold" you may Judge for
yourself how great a risk you take
when you chat with a careless per
son who purports to have a, slight
'cold." On the other hand, If you're
fair you may Judge how great a
menace you are to your friends, fam
ily or associates or the Innocent per
sons near you If you Insist on keep
ing about as usual when you have the
crl. You don't know, nor does any
one else, what the putative "cold
will prove to be. And unfortunately
In most of the respiratory infections
listed the period when the disease Is
most virulent, most likely to spread,
Is the stage of Invasion the very
time when the average scoundrel or
damn fool Is trying to "break It up"
with some nostrum or other, or try
ing to "fight It off" and keeping up
and about, so that everyone who hap
pens to come within range has an ex
cellent chance to contract the Illness,
whatever It may be.
Measles, for example, Is most likely
to spread among children In school or
elsewhere In close contact In the throe
or four days of the stage of invasion.
before any rash appears, when the
child has only the symptoms of a
"feverish cold." This Is one, and a
sufficient, reason why no child with
putative "cold" should ever be al
lowed to remain In school. The same
rule applies, of course, to teachers,
though teachers are pretty Ignorant
or selfish about this practice of the
golden rule of hygiene. Their Ignore
ance or selfish new is encouraged by
the Inefficient or vacillating policy
of the healthy authorities who deter
mine the policies of the schools. When
you have an old fogy In charge, or a
scheming politician, you can't expect
much consideration for the health of
school children.

The white haired old man's story

in a matter of hours.
Ruse Unexpected
No one expected a man in his 74th
year, who had been described as In a
serious condition from a heart ail
ment, to resort to the methods that
Samuel Insull was at the moment
turning over In his mind. Conse
quently, none of the sentinels on
duty was prepared to penetrate the
disguise of the man they watched
a man whom they were about to see
appear as 35 years younger. This
fact, Insull decided, would permit
him to pass through their lines.

ne set to work coloring his hair and
moustache, accomplishing a remark
able transformation.
Rest Was Easy
The rest was, he says, "aa easy as
falling off a log." He simply re
moved his glasses In order to com
plete his disguise, then walked boldly
out the door, passing the men who
were watching for him within a few
feet.
He said he was really walking a
little unsteadily because It was diffi
cult for him to steer a straight course
wiwiouc ftis spectacles. However the
guards were not unaccustomed to
seeing gentlemen who walk unstead
ily at that time of morning and no
one moved to stop him.
He progressed down the street
until he reached a taxi stand, then
he merely hired a cab as any ordi
nary person might do. In It he drove
past the pickets and reached Piraeus
where the Malotls was waiting.
Friends Chartered Ship
It was, he said, chartered for him
by friends whose names he refuses to
divulge.
It was 5 p. m. before the sootv old
vessel cleared the harbor and he
could come out for air.
When the Greek authorities be
came aware of his whereabouts, late
the next day, they ordered the Mal
otls to put back under the threat of
sending a warship In pursuit.
It was hours after they doubled
back on their course before Captain
Ioannls Mousourls, the master of the
ship, for whom Insull professes a
great regard, could bring himself to
Inform his aged passenger of the
situation.'
In Touch With Wife
While the world sought vainly to
discover his whereabouts, Insull, bob
bing around In the Mediterranean in
search of refuge, was In regular radio
contact with Mrs. Insull In Athens.
He and his wife devised a secret
code by which they transmitted mes
sages through ordinary methods but
which only the two of them could
decipher.
Captain Mousourls had his own
code with which he commulnlcated
with the Malotls' owners In Greece.
Insull contends that the only
irregularity of his first departure
from Greece was the fact that his
passage had not been declared. He
says that this was not sufficient
grounds to warrant ordering the
Malotls back to port.
Wandering Resumed
The wheezy old freighter, obeying
the recall order, pulled Into Piraeus
harbor on the night of March 17. In
a few hours its passenger's status was
settled to the satisfaction of the
Greek authorities and the ship was
permitted to continue Its voyage.
During the brief stay In the harbor,
Mrs. Insull packea her husband's
luggage and sent it aboard. She per
sonally went to. see him and remain
ed until shortly before the ship sailed
at 1:20 a. m. that Sunday.
It was only then that she learned
how her husband had succeeded In
leaving Athens by blacking his hair
and moustache. He had been unable
to wash off all trace of "the horrible
stuff", as he described it, and when
she perceived the change she remark

When the Malotls turned back
from near Port Said, Insull deter
mined on an attempt to reach
Black sea port "two days steaming

But Insull refuses to sav whether
that Black sea port was In Rumania.
Turkey, or Russia.

I have always believed there Is
snobbish lack of naturalness and
frankness In discussing one's literary
tastes in public. It so happens that
mostly because of the exquisite phras
ing (much of the plot and real mean
ing escape me), I like Shakespeare
But I also like E. Phillips Oppenhelm
and have read evtry story he ever
published. Yet when bookish topics
come up I veer to Shakespeare and
vent what knowledge I have of him
and his works, with copious quota
tions. Somehow, and It strikes me as
mther snide, I do not mention Op-
prnhelm at all.
There Is a tug toward bird feeders
In Central Park. Neither wind, enow
or rain keeps them from their daily
tryst. In some 20 years I have come
to know eight, two. Incidentally, are
elderly white mustoched twins. Some
pay their visits in the morning, but
the majority at sundown. They have
their favorite benches and the spar
rows, pigeon and squirrels reveal
their instincts for awareness by peep
ing about nearby at least a half hour
before the various arrivals. One has
a feeling regulars among the bird
feedera are cllffrd off somewhere
among the Manhattan niches In pain
ful Isolation. There Is Invariably a
lonely look In their eyes.
