The Third Part) of Oregon met yesterday at Salem and nominated Peter Zimmerman of Yamhill county for Governor. There were 905 dele gates, which Is about the number of state offices to be filled, it ths state should run completely out of luck and Peter be elected. Peter confessed at the convention that he Is a Socialist et heart, but registered as a Repub lican, where the votes are most plentiful. He has a Biblical first name, and Is a farmer. His qualifi cations beyond that are not atem wlndlng. He Is a fiery orator, and Is adept at cussing power companies, railroads and other corporations who pay their taxes promptly, maintain payrolls and otherwise keep money In circulation. He Is not very strong for the re-dlst.rlbutlon of woalth, as ha has accumulated some, and would have to dlvlds with those not ac quainted with honest toll. "Ths man tla of George Joseph" has fallen on his shoulders, and completely covers him. This "mantle" concealed the "free electric lights" the bewitched Oregon voter broke his neck for In 10SO, and as yet has not received. Mr. Zimmerman la runnlnfr. on the theory that Oregon le as giddy now as then. His candidacy Is part of the long per sistent camnalan to render Oreaon helpless with tool notions.

M M Editorial Correspondence PHILADELPHIA, Pa., June 23. -It is interestinj? how strik ingly different American cities are. Like individuals they have their own personalities and temperaments. Hopping from New Tork to Philadelphia between luncheon and dinner, is like going from Niagara Falls, into the warm and stagnant waters of a Mid-West mill pond. AU is action, glitter and noise in Man hattan, all is placid, sombre and quiet in the City of Brotherly Love. Both are large cities, both are old cities, yet they are as different as black and white, their only similarity is a common language, and even in this direction the native accents arc noticeably different. The highway from New Tork to Philadelphia starts out like a million dollars and ends, more or less, like thirty cents. One leaves New Tork through the amazing tube of white and tan river, well lighted, clean as a whistle, with uniformed guards in recesses along the way, and first; aid stations in case of emergency. One way traffio rules prevail, and while there are speed signs on the walls, we doubt if anyone observes them. The car emerges on a four track highway, which points straight for Philadelphia, while others curve to the north and south, for Albany and Atlantio City. The large railroad system an impressive example of engineering skill. But In the vioinity of Princeton, N. J., Highway No. 1 practi cally disappears, and from then utu-rcn and in some places rar we had strayed from the beaten were still on No. 1. It won't be many years, however, before there will be a four track highway from New Tork to Philadelphia, and then on to Washington, D. C. Air travel may become undoubtedly will become far more safe and is today but nothing is going to supplant permanently, speedy and convenient travel ON THE GROUND. Here's a tip for young men in the paint business and hang Sandy Hook everything needs barns, factories and smoke stacks, railroad stations and bridges cities and towns, almost everything above the ground needs paint. One of these days when normal business returns, we predict a demand for paint, unprecedented in the history of the civilized world. We can say along with Mr. Arthur Brisbane that the writer owns no paint stock. But if he had some spare cash to invest he would buy some. e The oity administration of Philadelphia has the reputation of being one of the worst in the country, and appearances boar that out. Never in a large city have we seen such poorly lighted and dirty streets. Newspapers and rubbish are strewn about everywhere. There are some large and very attractive new publio buildings, the Pennsylvania railroad station is a most impressive pile but the city as a whole, is unkempt, dingy and depressing. One feature of Philadelphia outskirts is particu larly strange and unattractive. Block after block of uninterest ing brick houses, each the exaot duplicate of every other, mile after mile. They give one the impression that the City of Brotherly Love, is architecturally speaking, the result of one blueprint, the pouring of brick and mortar into one conven tional and unimaginative mould, was all the combined citizenry could produce. . Of course there is another side of the picture. Philadelphia is old, and like Boston, proud of its antiquity. It is not up-to-date or progressive and is proud of the fact. It lives in the past and worships its ancestry. Let New Tork and Chicago widen their streets, build double deck highways, erect soaring sky scrapers, pull down historic land marks and construct pent houses and duplex apartments, the original capital of the United States will remain, as far as possible what it was a cen tury ago. This gives it a mellow tranquility, a sense of stability and permanence that the two largest cities in the country lack. No street widening in Philadelphia. In two of the principal down town streets as we motored through, they were laying new Dries: pavements. Uiitside of Broad street, we found no two way traffio signs. Even Chestnut street is a one-way thoroughfare. We saw no mounted policemen or motorcycle traffio oops. The traffio cops we did see, stood undor umbrellas and turned the stop and go signs by hand. e Like Boston too, Philadelphia doesn't go in for show. Many years ago Bookbinders on Walnut street was famous for its sea food. We went there for luncheon and in 30 years it hasn't changed in the slightest. It's dirty outside and not too clean within. But the waitresses are just as pretty and accommodat ing, and the food is just as good. Behind the same counters in front, the oolored chefs pull out the lobsters, and boil them be fore your eyes. They recently served a lobster that weighed 34 pounds. A waitress passod one of its fore claws around the table. The segment could have served for a Legionnaire's ser vice oap, and fitted a No. 7 head. We prefer the bay chioken lobsters and had some. Also broiled scallops, another speoialty and a great delicaoy. We can say this for Philadelphia no whoro in the country can one find hotter food. And the softshell crabs and the ohori'y stone clams. M-mmmm and Um-Um, e e e Tes, in two ways the Atlantio coast has it over the Pacific eoast, sea food and fire flies. wooded highways in the twilight over the meadows, tiny cleotrio trees. It is vory beautiful. Barring the sea food and the fire flies however, the Pacifio hts it over the Atlantio like a Barnum and Bailey tent. As for climate well, we haven't said much about the climate, for we gave up the weather as a letter topio after commenting for so niRny yoars about the UNUSUAL moteorologioal manifestations in Sunny California. But we will say this.

HOW MANY In his curious book "alutton or Epicure," Horace Fletcher, ona of whose doctrines waa that ona should chow every mor sel of food 33 times before swallowing It, re. fera to ths com mon Idsa that there should be one bowel move ment a day and asserts that on his .regimen movement ones a week or once In ten dsys was suf ficient. On the other hand the Sage of Bat- tie Creek, whose teachings about food are not altogether bad, but whose no tions about exposure to cold are funny, I think, was held that healthy Individual ahould have three evacuations dslly. In the "Little Lesson In the Ways of Health" on "The Constipation Habit," or Doo Brady strives to as sure the victim of that habit that there la no danger whatever In wait ing a week or more for nature to re sume control when you swear off from all physic. I suppose Dr. Kel logg would think this doctrine sa funny as I think his notions sbout "lowered resistance" ars. Of course, Horace Fletcher wasn't a doctor. Now, now, I mean no dis paragement at all, but altho I was greatly Interested In his teachings and his achievements still I never could reconcile his theories with our knowledge of physiology, and reluct antly I classified him In my own estimation aa a nut. Aren't we all, ln one respect or anothsr? Unques tionably a great many wiseacres who think they know what I'm driving at have ma classified as a nut in their estimation. But a correspondent has brought these questions up and asked me to give my views. Here they are. Take 'em or leave 'em. I believe an Individual In good health, on an ordinary mixed diet, with nothing serious on his conscience snd no secret fear or worries or hates or envies or malicious schemes influencing his metabolism, with no drug or enema habit and no morbid misinformation about physiology, will generally have from on to three Im pulses tor defecation In each 3 houra. Furthermore I believe It 1 a matter of small moment whether such an In. dividual heeds the Impulse Imme diately or Ignores It until It suits his convenience to answer the call. I do not advocate tha practice of Ignoring the Impulses or putting the meter off, especially when one has long been a slave to physic.

Carbon Dioxide Treatment. To stop an attack of hiccups I found It bandy to slip a hat bag over my head and tighten It around my neck. A. L. R. Answer Inhalations of csrbon dlox. lde and air or oxygen are effective in relieving obstinate hiccup. Kebreath lng of course Increases the proportion of csrbon dioxide in the air to 6 or 10 ner cent. So If you breathe for a time into a grocer's paper bag held closely over noa and mouth, you get the effect of carboxygen Inhalations. Or you get the same effect by holding the hat bag over the head aa de scribed. Salt and Obesity, Please tell me whether the use of a large amount of sslt has anything to do with overweight? I can't seem to reduce, and I use a lot more salt in and on mv food than any one I know. Mrs. R. O. Answer Yes, much salt not oniy encourages overeating but tends to retain an excess of water in tne tis sues, and that makes flabby over weight. Better banish the salt cellar from your table, and limit yourself to the salt naturally In such foods as meat, milk, cheese or fish and tne salt added In cooking. "Growing" Pains. Daughter, 9, growing fast, com- plslns pains In legs and Brms. She Is normal and healthy In other re spscts. M. A. O. Answer It never nurts to grow. Common cause of "growing pains" Is Infection in tonsil. Better have your doctor Investigate the condition of the tonsils, and the dentist the con dition of the chlld'a teeth.

(Copyright, 1934, McNaught Syndi cate, Inc.) Communications Questions Inoculations To th Editor: In your issue of May 34th, under th caption "Health Workers of Coun ty Oatn Results In Tear," It Is ssld: "Th length of th period over which the health program has extended In each district, la reflected, Dr. Drum mond's chart ehowed. In a definite Improvement in health, particularly In the campaign against tuberculosis. Such rcallmtlon, his report stated, Is even more Interesting than the fact that th health department has dur ing the past year Immunised 517 school children against diphtheria, ei amlned 1.477 school children and glr n 740 treatment for ayphllls. There Is a very great difference among medical men aa to the value of thee Inoculations, phophylsct'c and therapeutic. For example: In "The Journal of the American Medical Association." April 3, 1937, Dr. W. X. Oatewood and O. W. Bald rldge say that: "A multiplicity of untoward se quelae have been observed in patients treated with immune serum." The Journal of the American Med ical Association," Dec. 0, 1910, reports forty severe reactions and five deaths In Dallas, Texas, from toxin-antitox in. Damages ranging from 1100 to 1000 were awarded in each of fifty cases. The "New York Herald Tribune, "New York Times" and other papers of May a, 1033, report. In a telegram from Rome, the death of 10 children In Italy from "antl-dlphtherla" serum (toxoid), end the Illness of many oth er children. To quote: "Many of the children showed symptoms of post diphtheria paralysis. The Ministry of the Interior ordered Immediate sus pension of further vaccination. In an editorial in "The Journal of the American Medical Association," June 0, 1931, it Is said: "Every one who deals extensively with Immune serums realizes that their practical use Is attended with certain menaces . , , anaphylactic shock occasionally occurs . . . The most common symptom Is a skin eruption, which la usually urtlcorlal but may vary considerably In type, Edema may appear In various parts of the body, notably the face. Mul tiple Joint pains, albuminuria, leuko cytosis and general malaise are some times encountered." Owing to Its dangers, some states have now abandoned toxln-antl toxin for toxoid, but in the ".Southern Med ical Journal," August, 1031, In article "Diphtheria Immunisation in Private Practice," by W. W. Anderson, It Is said: "The reactions following toxoid are a little greater than those following toxln-antl toxin." In 'The Journal of the American Medical Association," July 0, 1083, the question Is asked by a doctor If child has been exposed to a case of diphtheria, would It be better to give that child "an Immunizing dose of antitoxin or wait and give a large dose of antitoxin If the child devel oped diphtheria?" Notwlthsandlng the advocacy of toxin-antitoxin by the American Med ical Association, the editor said: "Formerly It was general practice to give an Immunizing dose of anti toxin to persons who had been ex posed to diphtheria with the idea that It was harmless. It Is now known that even a small primary dose of serum may produce alarming and serious re actions. It may also render the indi vidual sensitive to serum administer ed subsequently." It Is constantly claimed that chil dren are rendered Immune from diph theria by toxin-antitoxin, medical lit erature shows to the contrary. SchwartB and Janney say In the "American Journal of Diseases of Children," March, 1930, that toxin antitoxin "has two distinct disad vantages, the first is Its variable pro tective value about 28 per cent of the patients remaining Insufficiently immunized after three doses of toxln- anti toxin; the second Is the danger of serum sensitization following Its use." In the "British Medical Journal," Dec. 3, 1033, it Is aald: "M. Fayot who records 130 cases In patients aged from 14 months to 14 years In which diphtheria had occurred In spite of Injections of antitoxin toxoid, states that , . . Diphtheria following Inocu lation does not present any special features. It may be severe and even fatal . . ." An attack of diphtheria Itself does not provide protection against the disease there have been recorded second and even third attacks in the same person how then can Immuni zation do so? SUE M.

Common, president of Massachusetts Institute of Tech nology and chairman of th national science advisory bosrd: "Chaos awaits this world unless It adopts and places In effect Intelli gent planning, based on the scientific method." PLANNING by whom and for what? By US, for OURSELVES, In the planning of our own affairs? Or by somebody who set himself up smarter than we are, FOR US? IF THE FORMER, Dr. Compton may be right. If the latter, he 1 ahead of bis time In this country. Americans haven't jet reached th point where they ar willing to Bav their affairs all planned out and managed by SOMEBODY ELSE. There's still too much rugged In' dlvlduallsm left. THIS WRITER, offering bis opinion as that of one Individual only, haa an Idea that the world Is headed for chaos unless It get away from th notion, at present widely held, that we can lift ourselves by our own bootstrsps that It Is no longer necessary to work and save and scheme, but that all we need to make everybody rich and happy la to pass a law or elect aome good promlser to office.

SOUNDS rather terrifying, Just off hand, doesn't It? But let's take a little closer look at It. Suoh a situation, If It could be brought about which, of course. It couldn't would mean that this country would have to live) within itself, producing everything It re quire and finding within Itself a market for ALL of Its production. That might not be so bad. FOREIGN trade, in lta simplest form, consists In selllne to ths foreiemar what you have but don't need and buying from him what he has that you want. Purely as suoh, It Is fine, and bas resulted In tremendous advances in civilisation. B UT, as foreign trade grew, a lot of up around It such, for axample, as the Idea that th nation that sells everything and buy nothing will be come great and rich. Thla Idea aounda good, but WON'T WORK, because trade, of necessity, In volve both selling and buying. If you don't buy from your customers, your customers can't buy from you. But th politicians, who abound In all countries, don't care particularly whether or not an Idea will work. What they want 1 an Idea that SOUNDS OOOD and will eatoh votes. SO, IN ALL countries, th politicians have been pushing the idea that th thing to do Is to sell everything and buy nothing. A a result, for eign trade haa become so snarled up In red tap and artificial restrictions that It la Just about ready to expire. - ....
