Speaker
QPEAKEH HENRY T. RAINEY whose sudden death Is de
J plored by the entire country, was a good men rather than
a great one. No man had a more genuine love for humanity,
a more sincere devotion to the underdog. Hi outstanding qual
itics, however, were emotional
the Bryan, as opposed to the Woodrow 'Wilson type.
President Roosevelt had no more enthusiastio and loyal sup
porter in the Lower House, but the speaker lacked the firm hand,
and dominating personality, which in former administrations
took the responsibility of legislative leadership, from the chief
executive shoulders. At many times during the past year, the
president had to take a hand, to keep the House machine In line
In the long run however, such loyalty and devotion as Speak
er Rainey possessed, such willingness at all times to subordinate
himself, for the interests of his party, is probably more valuable
to a national leader, and more difficult to replace, than the more
commanding and forceful type.
Speaker Rainey will be greatly missed in Washington Every,
one liked him, all respected him.
More genuine personal sorrow more heartfelt personal
grief will be felt at the passing of this high minded and lovable
character, than has marked the death of a national figure, in a
great many years. ' .
He wasn't a great leader. Nor was he the cleverest man in
the world. But no one in public life probably better deserved
the following tribute to integrity of character i
"A wit's a feather, and a chief a rod:
An honest man's the noblest work of God."
The Tide
HITLER is endorsed as supreme dictator of Germany, but
whereas only 5 of the votes were cast against him, at the
former election, there is a 11 opposition registered this time.
From the American standpoint these socalled plebiscites in
Germany are farcical. There is
the American sense.
The votes are not only registered by Hitler men, but counted
by them. There is a strict press
That the world is told of a
double that of the former test, is pretty good evidence, that the
Hitler honeymoon is starting to fade., that the inevitable period
of more moon and less honey is not far distant.
This doesn't mean necessarily
the end of his rope. Far from
that Der Fuehrer is going to
from this time on.

A STARTLING denouement is revealed in a study of what

In that county elementary
$112.79 per pupils to $06.31. The figures reflect the cost for the
school year of 1930-31 compared , with the lower cost in the
school year of 1933-34. The cut was brought about by salary
reductions as high as 50 per cent., and by increased class loads
on teachers, non-enforcement of standardization requirements,
federal aid, curtailment of supplies and shortened school terms.
Even to meet this curtailed cost of only $06.31 per pupil, the
oily of Medford received from property tax the sum of $153,830.
But if the property tax limitation measure limiting the levy to
20 mills is adopted in the November election Medford will re
ceive from property tax only $33,038. The Medford schools will
thus have only $33,038 to meet school costs that last year re
quired $133,930. The sum will be $120,892 less than the schools
now receive. And this tremendous reduction will be st a timo
when the pupil cost has been cut from $112.79 to $66.31 by
reduction of the salaries of toachers, increased class loads for
teachers to meet, non-enforcement of standardization require
ments, federal aid, curtailment of supplies and shortened school
terms.
Can our country afford such a starvation of the schools!
The actnnl cut in the property allowance to Jackson county
schools is 78.6 per cent. In the language of the school superin
tendent of Jackson county in an official bulletin, the cut will
"mean that schools will practically cease to function."
If the property limitation bill is approved in the coming
election, what of the schools, what of the children, what of their
future? Portland Journal.

Not every skinny patient can learn
to take Insulin himself. In any case
where the doctor feels the adminis
tration of the dose may be entrusted
to the patient, it Is only for econ
omy of the doctor's time. He should
see the patient at least twice or three
times a week throughout the course
of Insulin treatment. In such cir
cumstances the doctor may properly
instruct the patient how to take his
own ahote between times.

the treatment of underweight or poor

Comment
on the
Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
A STATEMENT Just put out by tbe
petroleum industry point out
that in the past 13 yeara tax-j on
petroleum product In this country
have amounted to $4,803,291,829.
That la an annual average of around
400 million dollars.
It hasn't been man year since we
ran the whole United State govern
ment on that amount of money.
BUT those days are gone probably
forever.
We spea'a. of 400 million dollar In
these plying modern days aa mere
vest pocket change.
IT ERE Is a thought:
J The bulk of these taxes on pe
troleum products, which have been
used In the main to build one of the
finest highway systems In the world,
have been SALES taxes, and have
been paid without grief or pain or
objection.
As much can't be said of other
forms of taxation.
RISING motor vehjele taxes, we are
told, constitute a threat ( to the
great motor Industry of this country.
Sure they do. Rising taxea con
stitute a threat to ALL Industry, pil
ing up a burden of cost that has to
be met before money can be paid
out In the form of higher wages. I
Let's not wholly overlook that fact
In these day of vast governmental '
expenditures which In the long run'
will have to be paid back by taxa-'
tlon.
WHILE we're on the subject of
taxes, It Is Interesting to note
that In the seven months from De
cember 1 to June 30 liquor taxe of
all sort furnished the federal gov
ernment with a revenue of 1 184,033,
535.50. That is for the first seven months
of legal liquor. At the same ratio,
liquor taxea for the full year would
be around 320 million dollar.
Again we are reminded of the fact
that It hasn't been ao terribly long
since $320,000,000 paid the total cost
of the federal government.
ON THE subject of liquor, li Is In
teresting to note that there are
still nine states that have constitu
tional and statutory prohibition.
These state are Florida, Idaho,
Kanaaa, Maine, Nebraska, Oklahoma,
South Dakota, Texas and West Vir
ginia. Nine other states Alabama, Arkan
a, Georgia, Mississippi. North Caro
lina. North Dakota. South Carolina,
Tennessee and Utah have statutory
prohibition.
In 39 states, sale of liquor ha been
legalized.
WHAT state pays tba most liquor
revenue to the government, and
so, theoretically, consumes the moat

You'd miss It, probably, if you
guessed.

I lived a right smart time down soutii
Next faim to old Bill Jacks;
And many a lie we two did swop.
As well aa a few real facta.
Now tlmea were mighty hard those
days
Down In that southern clime
And we hadda dig a way down deep
Just to find a lone thin dime.
Oosh, we're nearly outa tobaocer. Bill,
So a Job we gotta try.
For life ain't sweet without a chaw.
Sea I to Bill, sez I.
Well we gotta Job a cuttln" com.

Where we were paid two cents a

Just me and my neighbor. Bill. "
The weather, aure was mighty hot.
And the corn was tsll and dry,
But we better stick, till the Job la

Sea I to Bill, sets I.
For I reckon you need winter clothes.
While L crave a radio.
And our credit's busted at the atore;
So we need a little dough.
But when we git this corn all out,
Then that radio I'll buy.
Just to hear hula music from the
South Sea Isles,
Sea I to Bill, aez I.
