Too bad I Both "Washington and California have attractive exhibits at the Century of Pro gress; Oregon has nothing but a sign on double doors which are locked and the glass pasted with soiled and weather beaten newspapers. According to the guard, Oregon made a reserva tion which accounts for the sign, but never followed it up. A visit to the state exhibits confirms the soundness of a suggestion made in this column when the question of an Oregon exhibit was being discussed throughout the state. An air con ditioned layout, emphasizing Oregon's great outdoors, the last stand of the sportsman's paradise would have been nothing short of a knockout, and for comparatively little monev would have given the state a publicity investment that would have I paid cash dividends for years. Unly those who have visited appreciate the passion there is for a cool retreat an escape sufferable heat. Quite true air it would have been worth all atmosphere guaranteed, a few grouse hunting, a camp by a moving pictures of Oregon's great outdoors, would have been sufficient to have packed 'em in. No exhibits of products would have been necessary or to our way of thinking desirable. That sort of publicity has been done to death, and the products of one state are seldom strikingly superior to those of another. But in fishing and hunting, in its woods and mountains, in its shaded and unspoiled wilderness In failing to have such an Fair, Oregon we believe, lost a Mot an old newspaper friend of his years had been assigned to cover the recent visit of Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt to the Century of Progress. He is still sore, particularly that he had never left big city a little weekly somewhere in could have done and thought which he can t do now. He bates Chicago, detests the heat and dirt, looks young enough but says he feels 90 years old and would like a job on the Mail Tribune. He is a clever feature writer and that is why he was put on the job of trailing the First Lady of the Land, on her recent flurry in the Windy City. "Imagine putting an old decrepit fire horse like me on such an assignment" said he, "it was simply criminal. I haven't recovered and probably never will.

Take for example the recent action of the associated banks of Jackson county governing their various services. I challenge any one to prove that the demand of the longshoremen was not Just as reasonable, It embodied a principle for which the NRA contended snd under which the CWA operated. Why then were these demands not gratified? Because the shipping com panies far It would Interfere with their profita that they love so much better than they do the public wel fare.

Why then did not the government come to the rescue as efficiently as when an emengency confronted the banks a year ago? X am not a believer In etrlkes; there la a better plan. But the long suffering public still prefers strikes and turmoil. Under exutlng condi tions what Is the poor laboring man to do when the police, the army, and the presa which controlla public sentiment are all with the employer? Other groups of workera struck to lend force to the longahoremen's argument. Surely time now for the powera that be to wake up and do something. And what did they do? They called out the militia, the tank and gas bomb, machine guns and other hellish parsphenalla supposed to be reserved for foreign enemle Invading our sacred soil and train them on our fellow citlwna who are merely demanding that ship owners employ the longshoremen IN TURN and hire only union men.

Cai, VOIR OPTIMA L BODY SIZE Tables purporting to give the "cor rect" weight for persons of different age, height and sex are scarcely worth consulting In any circum stance. The fig ures of such ta b 1 e t represent only averages of the Individuals examined no matter whether a thousand or ten thousand ot each age-height class. Well that ought to give a fair idea of what Is normal, you may think But I can't agree with you. It may give a fair Idea of what was accepted as nor mal a generation ago. Remember, the measurements on which these tsbles are based were made twenty, thirty, forty or more year ago. The old gray mare ain't what she used to be, nor la the woman today so weak, sickly and frail as her mother was. Records of many thou sands of college girls prove that the height, weight and strength of the modern girl are all Increased over the figures of college girls a gener ation ago. 80 don't take the 'coTect', weight tables seriously. Even for two persons of the same age-sex and height an arbitrary "cor rect" weight does not necessarily ap ply. In the first place, one person may be fabby, soft, weak, from neg lect of physical education; the other may be firm of flesh, athletic or well educated physically and should weigh more because muscle la heav ier than fat, though It takes up less room. Then, too, the type of build or framework must be taken Into con sideration. The length of limb and breadth of shoulder, the capacity of the thorax or the vital capacity may vary considerably In persons of the same sex, age and height. These fac tors cannot be ignored In estimating what the individual's weight should be. Ideally the "correct figure might be determined by measuring the in dividual's specific gravity. That Is, put him In a tank and compare his actual weight with the weight of the water he displaces from the tank.

While the ladles sre out In the k 1 tchen, sleeves rolled up. laugh ing It off. No opiate Is so deadening as memory, fogging reality with use less dreams. Women have shaken off the Jlttera long ago, plunged in to buck up their own men, still the whimpering. The history of this eco nomic upset will show it has not been mastered by codes and cabala but b7 feminine courage. In a word, the ladles, have been magnificent. When the back-trek be gan from grilled mansions and pent houses the men could be found brood Ing over the club high-ball in the despslr of anxious thought. The wor'.d was finished. Everything was alxes and sevens. Nothing could be donel All the while the women were copy ing up some walk-up flat Into a su burban area r la. starting the men off mornings with encouraging pats and receiving the discouraging moans In the evening with uplifting cheer. They refused to resign themselves to mutual pas&lveness. Not alt credit goes to the hspp'.iy married. Single Isdtes and fonorn widows have displayed amazing pluck. A young widow I know has gone slid ing down the social scale f:om a Fifth avenue duplex to Sond avenue hall room. She is cashier now In milk depot 113 a week, gives a dol lar a week to charity and has never chucked her arr.lle. That sort of cour- ege tskes Spartan spunk. There' a telephone lady. too.

The mere weight of the patient Wwuld not give an accur ate result, because, as already ex plained, the weight gives no definite Idea of the relative proportion of stored, Inactive, slacker fat. As accurate as a table Is the simple formula for estimating what the weight should be: Multiply the num ber of Inches of height above 5 feet by fl!4, and to that add 100 for wom en, 110 for men. If the height Is less thsn 5 feet, multiply the number of Inches below 5 feet by 6',i and sub tract that from 100 for women or 110 for men. Figure your weight from your own height by this formula and you will fix the formula In mind so that you can estimate what any body's weight should be. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Worry and Nutrition Statistics Indicate that the public haa had better health on the poorer quality or diminished quantity of food these past four years. In your opinion would not the worry over los ing homes, lack of security for the future, etc., causing high blood pres sure and other Ula, offset this? (W. O C.) Answer. Worry Is diluted fear. Pear Is a harmful emotion and is quite likely, to Impair nutrition. I should say this untoward factor more than offsets the theoretical benefit derived from restriction In food.

Maltreatment of Child Is It Injurious in any way to leave rubber panties on the baby all day long, taking them off only when he goes to bed at night? (Mrs. E. E. s.) Answer. Yea.

One) Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS THIS welcome headline meet, the eye: "GENERAL WALKOUT ENDS." THE general atrlke committee at San Francisco advises all unions on sympathy strikes to return Im mediately to their work and pledges all its resource, for the successful ending of the maritime strike by means of arbitration. Calmer counsel, you see, DID pre vail. WHAT happened?"" Well, It seems probable that leadership of the strike, both the original longshoremen strike and the later sympathy atrlk. of other unions, fell Into the hands of radical agitators communists and others. Recognizing this, the American Federation of Labor, whose patriot ism and forthright support of Ameri can institutions cannot be question ed, withdrew Its backing and the general strike collapsed. This, of course. Is only surmise, but It seems a reasonable surmise. AT ANT rate. It Is pleasing to know that the general strike has collapsed. Strikes In Individual Industries are probably Inevitable from time to time, for the atrlke Is the weapon of laat resort for workera whose le gitimate demands have been refused by short-sighted employers and such things have happened In the past, you know, and undoubtedly will hap- ' Den azaln. ! To refuse to the worker his right to strike Is to deprive him of his most effective weapon for betterment of his own condition. No fair-minded person wants to see that done. i i - -4 t BUT the general strike Is another! matter. It la directed not merely against a stubborn or short-sighted employer. I htli: .mini, th. VMTTDV DITOIW t. 1 purpose is Intimidation. That Is to j say. It la designed to make living : so uncomfortable, or even ao hazard-. ous, for the public as a whole that that the public will bring pressure to bear upon the employer to grant ' the demands m'.de upon him, regard lea of wheth-jr these demands are Just or UNJUST. As General Johnosn said so forci bly In his speech In Berkeley the other day, the general strike falls little short of open and violent re-! belllon against the constituted gov-' ernment. j THE general strike, In times such i aa these, when people are auffer- 1 Ing from acute economic disturb- i ances and so are not thinking either ' as straight or as sanely as they do under more normal circumstances, Is ft dangerous enterprise, loaded with potential dynamite. It strains authority, and lnvltea vlolence Indeed. It Is only one step short of outright civil war. It pro vides an Ideal field for the opera tions of the whole lot of agitators, radicals, res, communists call them what you will whose purpose, frank, ly declared, Is the overthrow of Amer acan Institutions.
