A LL THE element that make for war are present in Central " Europe today, aa they , were 20 years ago, but two. First,, there ia no extra cash with which to wage war. Sec ond, there is among the masses, no real DEEP-SEATED desire for war. The treasuries of Central Europe, in striking contrast to 1914, are empty. The rank and file of the people from the English channel to Trieste, are distressed, bitter and resentful; but this feeling is as likely to turn against their present rulers, as against some foreign foe. In other words there is no ional unity. Widespread anarchy leading to Communism, far j better describes the true situation, we believe, than mobilization leading to another European war. If the truth were known, :we venture to say, it would be found that Stalin is watching , the developments in Austria today with far more relish and Kaiser at Doorn. That is assuming the Kaiser and political economy, as he pretends to be. Why Not "Sell" the Climate? YESTERDAT, we are told, was a hot day. Today, no doubt the report will be the same. But the answer from one Middle West for two months Oregon knows what heat is. The thermometer doesn't soared in Southern Oregon over Fall, do so again. But the result will not be Rocky Mountains understands it. For it will be a dry heat in the first place j and a comparatively brief period of heat in the second. Dry heat may burn and annoy but it doesn't kill. Extreme heat during eight hours out of the twenty-four may be disturbing, but with sixteen hours in which to recover, it can, be cheerfully and healthfully borne. IT IS a truism that we seldom appreciate our blessings. The present writer can put it down as an historical and incon trovertible fact, that when it comes to climate, the people of Oregon do NOT appreciate their blessings. They can't without taking a trip into the Mississippi Valley, during mid-summer, or being offered like Dante, a safe conduct, through the nether regions. No it can't be done. In this matter, as in many others, the most vivid imagination fails. Experience is not alone the best, but the ONLY teacher. TT'HAT experience the writer has just had. It is an experience A he never intends to repeat, unless some - unexpected emergency demands it. Drops of water wear away a stone. In the East and Middle west, it is not only maximum heat, united with maximum humidity; but it's the absence of any relief night or day. It's the pitiless PERSISTENCY of the thing. When it starts the sun appears to have little to do with it. The victim in fact, gasps for air, even more desperately at night, than during the day. One simply has to wait for a thunderstorm or cyclone, to terminate the suffering, and it is this WAITING that wears poor homo sapiens down to the undertaker's door. When the storm finally breaks only those without a home and a cellar to retire to, worry about the destruction, ANYTHING but that continued heat is a relief. 'T'HERE'S another point. In the Mississippi and Missouri valleys, there is, within four or five hundred miles, no escape. There is no snow enpped mountain one can reach in a couple of hours; no ocean breezes within a thousand miles, no thick, cool forests or protected foothills, where relief is certain. Barring ownership of an ice house, an airplane or a railroad ticket as long as your arm, there is nothing to do but pray and bear it. And that's what they do. And WHY they do it, if material circumstances allow a one-way ticket to Oregon, we are com pletely at a loss to understand. Why stay there and suffer when business conditions (particularly farming) could (so we are told) scarcely be worse! IITELL, perhaps the answer to that ia the same as the answer to why this tribute to Ci ebon's climate will be dis counted by many of our readers, as merely some MORE liiiui dinger hooey routine Chamber of Commerce stuff! It isn't. It'a the solemn, gospel truth. And one has only to get out of the state at this time of year, secure a true national perspective, to real'ze it. But those who have been here longest and should know tlvir state best, are the last to credit it- as , IIHICH brings us back to that truism that we seldom appreciate our blessings. And so, conversely, perhaps our long suffering brethern in the Middle West,' don't pull up stakes and move on, because they don't (or seldom do) apprec iate their MISFORTUNES, can 't sense their gravity or the ease with which they might be escaped. And so climate is endured on one hand, and not apprec iated on the other, which is only another way of saying that in spite of the pro-western leanings of the Weather Man, things go on, much as they always have gone. Which is rather too bad. For history shows that climate is a most vital factor, both in the development of the human race and its happiness. So it should be properly appreciated by those who live in Oregon and enjoy it ; and it should be rroperly sold to those who don't For in such a process, both sides to the transaction would greatly benefit.

Address Dr. William Brad;, 265 El Camlno, Beverly HllU. Cal. Bt'RAL CARRIER HAS SOME IDEAS ABOCT CRAMPS Dear Dr. Brady: Have read many of your articles with great Interest. Regarding your article on swlm.' mlng may I be permitted to make a few observations? For nearly &0 years X have been a swimmer. When I learned to swim I decided that some -day I prob ably "would get cramps" snd at the same time 1 decided I was go ing to swim anyhow. If the crampa came In my arms, I'd continue swim ming by using my legs snd feet, snd If the crsmps came In my legs I'd swim with my arms. I believe the thing that haa drowned more people than anything else la the fear that if you get crampa you will certainly drown. Persons ob sessed by this Idea Just drown when they think they are getting cramps, drown to keep from being disap pointed! The grestest fsult with Inexperi enced swimmers Is swimming too high In th water. It takea a lot of power to do It and any one tires quickly swimming high. Really you only need your nose above water, and swimming low takea almost no power at all. The reason the Australian crawl la such a wonderful stroke Is the low position of the swimmer in the water. I think that many of the "cramp" drownings we hear about occur as a result of too much muscular effort by emateurs who swim high In the water. IF. 8. B.) There Is much sound sense In what this exppert tells us. Most swimmers will recall how they learned to swim only sfter they had overcome fear of submersion. Psychologists say a child Is born with one Instinctive fear, the fear of falling. Probably the same fear ac counts for the difficulty most begin ners meet In learning to swim. Every body st first la sfrsld of submersion. Women snd most men can float without effort by lying In still water on the back with everything but nose snd mouth submerged. If the water la disturbed by waves or by splashing nearby, one haa to give a kick or two to rise above the wave. But In quiet water one may float for hours thst way without effort. cramna" in the popular legenaary sense never happen.

DOLLFUSS, Austrian chancellor, antl-nazl, la shot down by nasls, who apparently capture several mem bers of the Dolfusa government. Later, aa nearly aa can be got at from the censored and carefully guarded dispatches permitted to get out, the nazl assassins exchange these captured officials for their own lib erty. 1BRMANT Is nazl. Italy la fascist. VJ Nazi and fascists have a fellow feeling for each other. So we read in a further headline: "Italian soldiers moving to border, A dispatch from Rome Informs us that Italy has 75,000 troops near the Austrian border. Italy Is getting ready for what ever may happen. 1TTHAT a messt TT Things appear to get In a pretty bad way in this country st times, what with kidnapers and gangsters and strikes that seem to have something more back of them than the simple and commendable desire to Improve the condition of those who work for wages, but even at our worst, we're far better off than hate-ridden Europe. .. Let's stay that way. ANOTHER headline, more construc tive: "Millions Allotted for High way Work." The millions are federal money, and the highway work referred to Is to be done in Oregon. "We'll have to pay taxes for a long time In order to pay back this federal money that Is borrowed, but at least we'll have the roads and In the next few years we'll make mighty good use of them. j FEDERAL money has been spent lavishly In the past year In or der to create employment. Some of the things It has been spent for will be of permanent value. Many, many won't. This writer, who is probably a good road crank and therefore pre judiced, la of the opinion that U the bulk of the federal billions that have been spent to create employ ment had gone Into the building of the greatest system of highways any nation ever had, and If a lot of the other projects that have been finan ced with federal money had been ig nored, we should have been far bet ter off In the long run. That, however, is merely one per son's opinion. What has been done has been done, snd It's up to us to make the best of It. AT ANY rate, spending money for the things we've spent It for Is vastly better than spending It for war as Europe has done and Is still dolr.. We can be absolutely positive of that.

Members of the sheriff s office and state police served the warrant upon Cluster, and arrested Stockman. Branded as "Red.? Cluster Is charged by Douglas coun ty authorities with non-support of two minor children boys, aged 12 and 15 years. Information forwarded to the district attorney's office state that Cluster la an avowed "red," snd known as a communist organizer. He applied for relief in Douglas county, April 17, 1933. Cards to sign up for work, Douglas county records show were unanswered by Cluster. The Douglas county relief commit tee reported that Cluster left his twa children with relatives, themselves on county aid lists, and that he con tributed nothing to their support. He has left his Douglas county resldenoe for long periods, returning at Inter vals from wanderings. Until his Ap pearance here, Douglas county au thorities thought he was in the San Francisco strike area. He has ben here for about six weeks. Claim Son Also Radical. Information was also furnished the district attorney that cluster has a son, aged 30, arrested 10 days ago in Portland In a raid on a radical nest there. The youth was also known as a communist organizer. Cluster, during his stay here, estab lished headquarters in the old P. & E. depot and held several meetlr.gi on the adjoining lot. He gathered about him in the neighborhood of 100 local followers. Including many who spend all their time st "the hall." He has been under surveillance for several weeks, but authorities report he was "sly" ln his activities. D15 trlbutlon of communistic handbills was laid at his door by officers. A week ago. the "Cannery and Ag ricultural Workers Union" hinted a fruit workers' strike would be fo mented, unless 40 cents per hour was paid pear-pickers. Strike Threat Met. The threat was met with the swear ing in of 240 special deputy sheriffs without pay. by the sheriff, and .he formation of a "Citizens Emergency committee of 200," to act "under constituted, authority." The atrlke plans then apparently collapsed, greatly aided by valley workers, who resented the intrusion of transient agitators. Cluster neither admitted cor denied he was a radical, dismiss ing the impeachment with the trade slogan : "If fighting for the right is beln? radical, I ara a radical." Stockman la not well known.

(Contlnueo irom Page One) One of the absurdities of autocratic government action is the fixing of exchange valuea for the mark accord ing to the pretense that Germany Is on the gold standard. This Is pure fiction, since the gold coverage is around 3 per cent, yet the worthless mark Is set by flat of the govern ment at 39 cents in terms of U. 8. dollsrs. With full gold coverage, its value was about 24 cents. Not much business can be done be tween the two countries, except by barter, on such terms as that Amort can traders would hard'y care for long to buy German goods at such a disadvantage In exchange, nor would they care to sell at such discount, even if the mark had any backing.

Then the whole financial world was trem bling with apprehension and fright because the German gold reserve wns about to go below 40 per cent. If that happened, it was predicted, the heavens would fall.
