After the first of the month if you want to buy a machine gun, you must first get a permit from a federal commission. Then, you must have your finger prints taken. Third, on the already high price, you must pay a $200 sales tax. Yes, that'i interference with the sacred right of the individ ual and the corporation doing business, at they wish to do it, and have done it, lo these many years. It is also regimentation making free American citizens conform to certain rules and regulations. It's a body blow to e e BUT isn't it a good thing for We tTiinlr if is. W hslievs Naturally the munition makers don't like it. They manu facture machine guns, and have found them highly profitable. What is done with the machine gun is not their affair, whether it is used in a foreign war or used in bank hold-ups is not their concern. This is a free country. There is a market for machine guns. If one corporation doesn't make them, another will, why should a meddlesome government interfere! e e ONLY one reason because stone of the gangster's last set himself to work, to stamp abiding, peaceful citizen, NEEDS a machine gunThe rugged individual who buys one hereafter, will have to be registered and identified, before the lethal implement is delivered. There will be few purchases under such a regulation. e e QUCH regimentation and governmental interference will re ceive the approval of public opinion. Because it is a blow PLAINLY aimed at violent crime. Yet other forms of governmental interference, and regimen tation, have the same END in view the elimination of dis honest practices, and destructive methods, so that honest business may have a better chance, and this may be made a better country in which to live. But it is not so easy to SEE that. The Big Business Highwayman, the petty grafter and the little chiseler, don't buy machine guns, to sprsy out compe tition j nor do they go to work in when they put over a midnight distinguishing them from honest So while an anti-machine-gun jobbing law isn't. And it probably won't be, until the people as a whole, see the subtle moral connection between the two. Heroes THREE C. C. C. men, fighting fires in the state of Washing ton. VflarArrlnv vara Kiif-n.l 4a dftath This shocking tragedy, brings into sharp relief, the valiant work being done, throughout the year, by the members of the Civilian Conservation Corps in protecting and preserving the forests of the Northwest from destruction. Although this has been a dry summer, apd usually under such conditions by mid-summer the valley is filled with smoke, until yesterday, no forest fires of consequence had been re ported in this part of the state, and the small blazes had, thanks largely to the C. C C. camps, been promptly extinguished. Not only have the C. C. C. trails, and clearing out inflammable underbrush j they havo been subject to call night or day, equipped fire department. There is real danger in this work aa the tragedy in Wash ington clearly demonstrates. But trBgedy in Southern Oregon is unlikely for the C. C. C. work is so much farther advanced here than it is to the north. And the absence of wido-spread destruction in our forests this year, can be largely attributed to the establishment of these C. C. C. camps. They have more than paid for themselves, in actual dollars and cents, in this direction alone.

A large proportion of all automo bile accident some engineer! who have studied the question estimate 86 per cent are unsxpl alnable. What makes a good driver who la aober do a queer thing such aa driving his car off the road to crash against some obstruction or driving It into another car to cause a wreck? Asleep at the .Lv,..tl(.3.'Mi wheel? That It probably a common cause of such accidents. Z met such a driver one spring afternoon, saw his car atr&ngely weaving from one side to the other as he approached, got aa far off on our side aa possible, but he hit head on Into our midship and smashed ua plenty. "Sorry," he said when we counted up the property damage, and d Ivors cuts, bruises, fractures and shocks. "I must have fallen asleep I have been driving all last night and all day today." Subsequently the beggar swore that he bad tried to avoid us, but we had come at him on the wrong side of the road and without giving a signal. When a driver feels drowsy at the wheel and finds It difficult to resist the desire to sleep, he can save time as well as peril to himself and others by stop ping off the road and Indulging In a short nap. After the nap he will feel refreshed and alert and can con tinue hla Journey in comfort and safety. It costa more now to Insure a car on all forms of risk than It does to supply ths car with gaa and oil. Un fortunately folk of the stripe of the wretch who wrecked us do not carry any Insurance? They should worry! This Is a free country. In fifteen cities engineers studying the question found that practically every motorist Interviewed had no ticed strange spells or feelings when driving, which might be due to slight carbon monoxide gassing. I have had such experience several times, a sud den sense of Incapacity to drive care fully and fear of continuing In traffic. At first this worried me, for I feared It might presage something like syn cope, apoplexy or hydrophobia or pip. But the second time I realized It was monoxide. Opening the windows and letting the wind blow through quick ly dispels the trouble. So now, no matter how strong the force of the wind, I ventilate the Instant I feel even a suspicion of such a spell.

It has been so long ago that not many remember that Bugs Baer'a hilarity had Its genesis In sport page drawings. They were grotesque vlng dlngs and amusing but his metier Is the unpredictable and cocke-eyed dis sertation on any topic that comes to mind. Baer Is a strapping near-six-footer temperamental as a diva and a thorough-going family man. When he can be Induced to alt at a banquet board, his sallies leave diners pros trate. George Rector once told me of hunting up Baer on the night of hla first arrival In Parts. The hu morist was In longue suit reading Splnora. Bert Levy, vaudeville cartoonist, was recently trundled In a chair to a cartoonists' dinner In Los Angeles, where he made the wittiest speech of the evening, and was returned to his sick room.

They found dangerous concen trations of carbon monoxide In 7 per cent of all the cars on the highway. In these cars generally a broken gas ket between manifold and exhaust plp wherever that may be, an open seam In the muffler (must be Con necticut cars have to have mufflers even In summer time,) the muffler pipe terminating ahead of the rear wheels, or leaky spacea around the pit accounted for the dangerous amount of carbon monoxide In the car. Symptoms of carbon monoxide gassing from any source: Tightness across forehead, or slight headache, with flushing of face. A little more causes headache and throbbing In temples. Still more causes severe headache, weakness, dizziness, dim ness of vision, nausea, vomiting, col lapse. Any time a driver or passenger feels suddenly "queer" It is a good plan to open wide the windows and replace the bad air In the car with fresh air. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS. Tonsil Tissue.

Incidentally, Der Fuehrer will al ways herrafter be known as Der Furore. Cst Mali Itibuus tul sJs, Comment on the Day's News Br FRANK JENKINS WE. LAMM, of ths Lamm Lum e ber company, of Modoc Point, addressing a Southern Oregon service club ths other day, made thla state ment regsrdlng business conditions: "I believe ws have passed ths low point of ths depression and ara In ths recovery period, but I believe also that recovery will be slow. It will be alow for these reasons: "Uncertslnty as to what will hap pen next. 'Government Interference In busi ness. -Stagnation of credit. "Political and economic confusion abroad. "Widespread labor unrest." UNCERTAINTY always holds back business expansion and we must have expansion If ws are to hove recovery. Business expansion Involves taking risks, and people Just won't take any more risks thsn they have to. If they feel that by waiting they can lessen the risk, they will WAIT. IT MAY be, for example, you would like to build a bouse. But build ing a house Involves the risk that It may cost more now thsn later, or that you won't be able to earn the money to pay for It and so may lose It. And so on. So you wait until you are & little more certain aa to what you will be able to do. As a result of all this waiting, few houses are being built. . M- GOVERNMENT Interference In bus iness adds to the uncertainty, for men with courage enough to go ahead don't know what the govern ment will PERIMT them to do. So they wait. BUSINESS cant expand without credit. And credit is stagnant stagnant being a big word meaning "standing still, without current or movement." Credit Is atsgnant because those who have the money are afraid to lend It and those who have the abil ity to use money profitably, so they will be able to pay it back when It cornea due, are afraid to BORROW. More uncertainty, you see. And more waiting. IjOLrnCAL confusion abroad adds to uncertainty here, because bus iness all over the world Is tied to gether. Ruin of one country loses markets for another. Europe and most of Asia are tn a hair-trigger stats of tension where ruin can come to almost ANY coun try overnight. That would mean loss of markets and disruption of bust, ness for us. So, you see, we WAIT, Walt to see what will happen. A ND so It goes with lsbor unrest al Business expansion, as already stated. Involves spending money and going heavily Into debt. Peoole won't spend money and go heavily Into debt as long as they have reason to fear that all they have risked, In or der to expand their buslnes, may be LOST because of an unjustified strike. So again they wait. TP HERE Is reason to fesr unjustified A strikes, becsuse of the obvious success of unprincipled, radical agl. tators In Intimidating honest work men. There Is nothing to fear from hon- est, sincere working people In this country so long ss they act on their own fair Judgment, but when they are misled and Intimidated by radi cals whose only purpose Is destruc tion of what we have built up In this country, there IS reason to fear. The recent strikes here on the Pa cific Coast have proved that. SUMMING up present conditions, people everywhere are waiting to see what Is going to happen wait. lng until In their Judgment the risks are less end It Is safer to go ahead. There Isn't much that can be done about It certainly not much In the way of passing new laws, for every new law that Is passed merely ADDS to the uncertainty. Ths most ef fective thing the government could do to restore confidence and atart thlnga going ahead would be to an nounce that It win do NOTHINO MORE at all until we have had time to digest and assimilate and work out by the process of trial and error the many, many new things ws have already undertaken. 'fHU Is s young and vigorous coun- 1 try. Its people WANT to go shesd. They don't like to stand still. They uren't that kind of people. In time, ttvlr natural desire to go ahead and do something and get somewhere will bring us out of this period of waiting and uncertainty. But this writer believes with Mr Lamm that wh'ls recovery Is un doubtedly under way It Isn't going to come upon us wrh an overwhelm lng rush, We will regain our confidence by the slow process of seeing that esch month thlnps are a little riettrr than they tre tht month before, anl so ACTOR'S FAMILY WITH HIM IN COURT JV I'-f'f ' K' fit Ceorflo Bancroft, film actor, shown with hit present wife, Mrs. Octavla Bancroft, and their daughter, Georgette, In Lot Angelet court where he was a defendant In a separate maintenance suit brought by Mrs. Edna Brothers Bancroft, the actor's first wife from whom ht tald he believed he was divorced.

A strong demand and good price la anticipated, as eastern states this year have but half a crop. Picking and packing of Boscs, D'AnJou and Cornice pears started yes terday. The heavy flow of pears into the packing plants will cause night and Sunday work until the peak is passed. The tomato crop of the valley started moving to the canneries to day. W. A.
