We Apologize to Gen. Martin! WE didn't tmppoie ANYONE in Oregon, even those bitterly opposing Congressman Martin on purely partisan lines, would publicly question "hi sympathy and aolicitude for Ore gon 'i problems," or "his truly warm affection" for this state. Nor did we aver imagine that ANYONE, much less an ardent supporter of Senator McNary, would even INTIMATE Congress man Martin's splendid service to his state, as representative of Oregon in the Lower House, was an added period to his NON RESIDENCE in this state, and evidence that his-"days of use fulness are over I" Yet these are the charges made by Fred L. Colvig, who signs himself "Republican" in another column, IF, as our correspondent maintains. Congressman Martin has only been In the state "3 years", for he was a non-resident when he served his state at Washington, then Senator McNary who has similarly served his state, for so many terms, haa been a non-resident for nearly two decades! e e e e OF course politics is POLITICS! We can expect a lot of unadulterated whang doodle, and apparently more than the usual amount of mud slinging between now and the time of election; but in all seriousness, this communication Btrikes us to express it mildly as surpassing the limit of partisan bitterness and absurdity. And, frankly, we regret its publication at this particular time, for Congressman Martin, today and tomorrow, is to be a guest in southern Oregon, and we are sure a majority of the people REGARDLESS OF PARTY, are glad to do him honor, and show him that courtesy which his long record of faithful service to his country and his state, justifies. But it happens to be one of the long established policies of this newspaper, to give space to communications, of ANY char acter, provided they do not violate .jcrtain rules and regulations, and the writer of this communication, insisted that it be printed at this PARTICULAR time, KNOWING it would greet Gen eral Martin on his arrival. So there it is, so that all may read. In spite of the fact that General Martin has msde Portland, Oregon his home for nearly half a century, and EXCEPT when CALLED elsewhere, TO SERVE HIS STATE AND COUNTRY, at home or abroad, has regarded Portland AS his home, Mr. Colvig insists upon calling him a "newcomer" who knows nothing of Oregon prob lems and cares lessl ease WELL, facta are facts, the truth is the truth ; In this as in all other nnlitipAl (rtntrnvAreiAei ate are. milt snnlist Unoa it to the fair minded and right GET those facts and be the final We would not, indeed, dignify such a communication by a reply were it not for the fact that faith, and accuses it of not going' mation. sees TTHIS paper DID go to the record, and it went straight to OVNT7RAT, MATTTV5 ... Ma v.. j as a public spirited resident state j not only to his record, as his state and country, in time record as Congressman, enthusiastically upholding the hands of President Roosevelt in time of day, regardless of partisan politics, for the development and the' welfare of Oregon I Let that record speak for ITSELF. And let General Martin, if he wishes, speak for HIMSELF. The Mail Tribune does. not presume to speak officially for him, his party, or his campaign committee. We have no axe to grind, we hold no position of authority, official or unofficial, in the Martin campaign. As before stated this paper, Martin, for Governor, for one chief reason and one alone because it bolievcs he is far and awny the man best qualified for the job. We have no quarrel with those grounds. They are as entitled to appears as we are to ours. e But we DO have a quarrel Goneral Martin, for high office in this state, on the ground that he is just a NEWCOMER, knows nothing about the state, cares less; and whose expressed solicitude and sympathy for the prob- lonm or me people or this state are insincere and fictitious I That ISN'T TRUE-and every resident of this state, Repub- lican, Democrat or something else, who knows ANYTHING about General Martin KNOWS it isn't true I Let's be fair in this oampaign.

RENOUNCING THE KARELL REGIMEN Readers who ha.v withstood the vicissitude! of thU column long enough will recall now heartlessly I utved to dish out the Karetl Regi men for those who liulAted they had to reduc. Thla rigorous regimen had two virtues It was as simple as stm p'e and it re duced and no mistake. It con sisted of taking nothing else but glass of skim milk (fresh milk from which the cream has been skimmed off), hot or cold, sipped slowly, every three hours from morn Ing till bedtime, and once In the night If desired. Thla was the entire bill of fare for one or more days each week. I estimate that one out of three persons who tried It had the hardi hood to adhere to it long enough to achieve reduction. However, I accu mulated a fat file of testimonials from readers who declared they had met with phenomenal success. But in spite ot these testimonials something told me the Karell Regi men was not quite the thing a health advisor should recommend, tho I had no definite Idea as to just what was wrong with It. However, I did pipe down on that note and about ten years ago ceased sentencing readers to that dietary Siberia. In a mono graph on obesity which I began dis tributing about that time I still men tioned the use of the regimen and even the legend that Karell first de vised It for one of the Czars. Now I wish to recall and annul the Karell regimen. It Is obsolete and anachronic. 8uch a diet may still servo a purpose in the treatment of certain disease conditions, but It no longer belongs In a health building program. Aside from the sharp curtailment In the total calories one gets on this regimen (skim milk yields 10 calories per ounce, or say 70 calories in a glassful), the diet has nothing else to commend It. It was good enough In Its day, but It falls to meet the es sential requirements as we know them today. Nearly all of the newer knowledge of nutrition has come since the Karell regiment was devised. Today any regimen designed for re duction must provide certain mini mum rations which the body de mands to maintain Its normal func tions. The diet must supply not only the proper proportions of proteins, carbohydrates and fats, but also cer tain vitamins and minerals which are E OF GAS AND BEER PORTLAND, Ore., Aug. 13. (T) Bills of complaint alleging violations of national recovery act were filed In federal court here today against a brewery In Tacoma, with a local agency, and against three service sta tions in Portland. The complaints were filed by Carl O. Donaugh, United States attorney for Oregon, and were delivered to Fed eral Judge John H. McNary. The bills of complaint charged vio lation of the code of fair competition, and requested orders to show cause why the defendants should not be punished under the statutes. Hearings were set for Sept. 9. The brewery named in the com plaint was the Northwest Breweries, Inc., of Tacoma. It was alleged that a Portland inn on Feb. 27, last, pur chased ten half-barrels of beer from the brewery for the established price, and was given, free, two one-half bar rels, in violation of the code section governing rebates. In case of the three service stations. It was charged that each sold first structure gasoline at 30 cents a gal lon, two cents under the established code price. Those named were the Portland Super-Service station, the Roto way service station and the Globe service station. The four cases were the first of their kind Instituted In this Judicial district.

Brady, M.D. Indispensable In the processes of metabolism. Moreover, If reduction is brought about by the diet, there must be adequate provision to pro tect against acidosis, which Is more likely to occur when surplus fat Is being consumed. The Karell regimen falls In all of these fundamental requirements, and therefore merits obliteration. I offer my apology and regret for having recommended It, but as I say I didn't know any better.

Martin To the Editor: In your editorial addenda to my communication of Sunday last, you threw the lie to or, to be nice, at least challenged my assertion that Qeneral Martin Is virtually a new comer here In Oregon, that he has been here only a few years (with the thought a natural consequence that Creneral Martin's sympathy and solicitude for Oregon's problems must be factitious, since it cannot be sup posed that In such a short time there should be excited deep In the old soldier's heart a .very truly warm af fection for the state). But, please, Mr. Editor. I refuse to be utterly abashed when you descend from your misty editorial mount to reprove me. It Is a matter of record, easily available to you, a newspaper man (and aometlmea a newsman of con science does go to the record) that the doughty general haa verily been In Oregon only a short time . 1 quote from a very reliable source: "General Martin served in the army from 1887 to 1927, when he was retired. The time he spent In Oregon prior to his retirement was very little. He was atatloned at Vancouver Barracks briefly. He married an Oregon woman and I suppose Itwas due to that fact that they came here to live fol lowing his retirement.

LAMM, president of the Lamm Lumber company, of Modoc Point, one of the large corporations of Southern Oregon, addressing a servloe club the other day, presented an unusually clear picture of lumber operations and the lumber market under the code. What be had to say was so Inter esting, here In the lumber country, that a brief digest of It la printed here. THE lumber Industry, Mr. Lamm told his hearers, hit bottom in 1032, along with other business, and by the spring of 103S recovery had begun to set In. Stocks were low, both at the mills and In the yards, and prices were low so low that only the more efficient mills could get Into the market. Thus there- was automatic limita tion of output. The high cost mills couldn't afford to operate. THEN the lumber code came along. Under the code, the mills were given quotas, either .by the month or by the quarter. These quo tas had to be cut In the time allotted, or be lost. No carrying forward of shortages Into the next period waa permitted. As a result, the larger mills were Included to cut their full allotments, whether they were Immediately able to sell or not, as the market trend was then somewhat upward, and they didn't want to losle their quotas. For this reason, over-production was 'encouraged. Y TNDER the code, cost of production w was guaranteed to the mills. The result of this situation was to bring Into production a very large number of small mills whose cost of production In 1033 had been too high to permit them to get Into the mar ket. But with coat of production guar anteed, they opened up at once. Mr. Lamm says that In the South alone the number of such small mills brought lnt production was between 2500 and 3,000. The output of lumber was mater ially increased. SO much for the production side. Let us now take a look 'at the consumption end. Lumber prices, as already stated, were low at the end of 1932, but as the result of the code, with Its high er operating coats due to increased wages 'and higher priced supplies, price rose on the average about 00 per cent. Other building supplies rose in about the same proportion. Thus a house that at the end of 1032 would have cost 43,000 by the end of 1033 would have cost 8,000. In the face of this situation, peo ple elm ply put off building, and de mand for lumber slumped. IN the spring of thla year, the gov ernment, anxious to stimulate building and recognizing that high costs were holding It back, announced that it was going to bring about a decrease in the price of lumber. With that announcement, such de mand as there was died at once. If you are planning to buy something, and then hear that the price is to be reduced, you DON'T BUT at the high er price. Instead, you wait for the price to come down. That Is human nature. EVENTUALLY, Vrioe of lumber, produced under the code, were reduced about ten per cent. But no rush to buy followed the reduction. When prices are reduced ONCE, buyers usually figure that they may be reduced again, and wait to see. They waited this time, and are wait ing yet. A large buyer of lumber said to Mr. Lamm Just a few days ago: "We want to buy lumber. We have the money lying Idle in the bank, drawing In terest. But what are we to do? We're uncertain about the price, and we can't afford to get stuck by another drop. "All we can do Is WAIT." SO there you have the story. First prices were raised by in creased operating costs under the code to the point where buyers held off and refused to buy. Then a forced drop unsettled the market and caused buyers to hold off still longer to see If there wouldn't be ANOTHER drop. They are still holding off, and the market is anything but good. HERB Is hope, and rather itrong belief, Mr. Lamm told his hear ers, that by September hesitation will begin to clear up and buyers will get back Into the markets. But they haven't come back yet. Price fixing sounds good In theory. but In actual practice It has many drawbacks as may be seen from the situation sketched by Mr. Lamm for hts hearers the other day. In the long run, price are fixed by supply and demand, and attempts to Interfere with the natural law of supply and demand always cause a lot ot confusion.
