MEDFORD MAIL TIUBTOTE. MEDFOK1). OREGON, MONDAY, XOVEIBER 5, 1934.
The. Duty of the Press
IT in not the function of a newipaper to tU the people HOW
to vote. That sort of thing passed out with the Washington
hand press. It IS the function of a newspaper to give the people
all the information available, so that they may vot intelligent
ly, so they may know concerning both men and measures, what
a vote MEANS on election day.
This the Mail Tribune has endeavored to do in this campaign
which closes today. Through its news columns, and through the
interpretation of that news in ita editorial column, this paper
hopes it has made clear, what a vote for General Martin and
Joe Dunne means; what a vote for the other important candi
dates means; what votes for or against the measures mean.
Whatever the results may be tomorrow, this paper, will have
no complaint in so fnr as those votes represent the opinions of
the voters, BASED UPON THE TRUTH. We will have com
plaint, in so far as tkose votes represent the opinions of voters
based upon misinformation, or the lack of information.
Ever since the campaign started the Mail Tribune has tried
to clarify the issues, reveal the -true characteristics and princi
ples of the opposing candidates, bIiow our roaders plainly why
we believe it is for the best interests of this community and this
state, to elect certain candidates and defeat others, pass cer
tain measures and not pass others, (or as happens to be the
case this year defeat all the measures.)
How far we have succeeded it is impossible to say. But wo
will at least have this satisfaction, that IN SO FAB as we have
thrown light on the true qualities and abilities of the candidates,
clarified the issues, increased the stock of ACCURATE infor
mation, available to the voters, we have performed what we
consider the primary function of the press, as a constructive
political force, in the country today.

TIIK IIOHHOK IX THE NIGHT.
"Ji:RT BEFORE THE BATTLE."
Tomorrow Is election day. for
which a great many people will give
ithanka. without waiting for Thanks
giving Day. The campaign has been
a very tame Civil War, and hatched
leas hate, arm fewer Ilea than any
similar even. In the memory of the
oldest Inhabitant. A campaign never
amount to much unlass half the
populstlon Is mad at the other half.
In this one nobody haa threatened
to comb his neighbor's whiskers with
a, pitchfork. Furthermore, no lady
baa been too busy saving the nation
to do her housework. All In all, the
campaign haa been rather clvlllrd
and disappointing.
It Is also the first campaign since
the Oreat War, wherein the Scrip
tures have not been quoted by can
didates. Two years ao the Bcrlpturea
were quoted most freely. This made
one of the lowest forms or numan
activity, take on a religious atmoa
pliere, and, If the votera got mad
notigh, the campaign became a
"Holy War." Under suoh conditions,
a candidate caught In a He. could
get out of It, by quoting Scripture.
If he happened to remember none,
he would make up his own Biblical
quotation on the spot. In California,
at present, a leading candidate is
accused of being an atheist. To
prove he la not, he now closes all
Ma campaign meetings with a prayor.
Buch tactics will not fool any of
the votera, unless It fools all of
them.
There haa also been a drouth of
rumors, and besides, people simply
would not believe a He when they
beard It. This la different from an
other day. when the people were so
tired of bel'evlng the truth they
would believe any falsehood, how
ever wild or Improbable. Of course, a
political aub-dlrlslon that la paying
Jor approximately 'J5.0CK worth oi
fibbing, la In no mood to believe
anything, and naturally shlea from
perjury and perjurere.
The ballot In the coming election
la about the alee of a bandana hand
kerchief, Instead of an old-fsahloned
bed-sheet. This brevity will permit
the voter to handle tht ballet, even
If ha Is not an expert paperhanger.
Titer are only three measures. In
stead of the former three docen.
Many times there haa been ao many
fool measure, the voter ran out of
"no's" and could not reg'.str a man
data on measures locate! on the
lower 40" of the rallot.
The campaign s'-arted last Janu
ary, and throughout the Republicans
have been very mean. They are try
ing to beat the Democratic candi
dates. Many Democrata regard this
as unspeakable and dishonorable,
but there Is nothing In ths "New
Deal" that makes It that way. If a
Democratic candidate for constable
falls to get enough votes, the more
hysterical Democrata call It "stab
bing Roosevelt In the back. The
best the Republicans could do, when
their choice for the constabulary
ram out the little end of the horn,
was to mournfully announce that
"Coolldg has been slapped In the
lace ."
All voters are urged to vote, de
spite the fact there will be no losers,
as all the candidates themselves pro
claim they cannot lose. They are all
-t vo-flsted." "sneak with their own
mouth." and "their heart la In the
tight place.- Some votera figure "my
Tite wont count." It will count one.
If cast. Instead of golfing, fishing,
bringing, or Just fooling around aimlessly.
Partisanship
IF the inside history of Joe Dunne s campaign is ever written
it will Tmilfp crimp inlpresf inc marline
The plain truth is outside of "Airflow Joe" himself no one
has been or is today enthusiastic about the "minority candi
date" of the G.O.P. When the results of the May primary were
finally known, all the higher-ups agreed that in "Airflow" they
had a white elephant on their hands.
But polities is polities, and the proverbial time had come,
"for all good men to come to the aid of their party." So they
had to make the best of it. (And to give the devil his due we
would say that the best has been "made.")
Knowing what we do about the real opinion of Airflow Joe.
in Tortlnnd newspaper circles, yesterday's leading editorial in
the Oregonian on "Genial Joe" was particularly amusing,
coming as it did directly after the final boost for Joe by another
of his journalistic supporters, the Oregon Voter.
It would seem that two of Joe's chief editorial backers, in
the same city, MIGHT ng'ree regarding their candidate's quali
ties or at least not publicly disagree, but such is not the ease.
Listen to this tribute to Joe from the Sunday Oregonian for
example:
"Let's grant that Joe Dunne talks frequently and at length
but he talks charmingly and vigorously does he notf And It all
msJtea sense, which la decidedly a novelty In these times."
And this from the Voter:
"Joe Dunne is a polltlclsn , . . that strives to please ....
talks hlntaelf Into many unsound and unwise commitments '
writes hastily, repents and tries to make amenda . , , probably
will keep the state stirred up by his lack of control of tongue
and pen and probably or at least we hope so will adopt and
execute sound policies and make SOMB W1&K decisions (The
emphasis la ours) . . without enthusiasm we commend his
election."
We should think it would be without enthusiasm and we
might add, without EXCUSE 1
TTHE Voter's analysis is essentially correct.
That absurd estimate of Joe Dunne's political palaver, in
the Oregonian on the other hand is a perfect example of the sort
of MISINFORMATION, to which we have referred above, and
which it SHOULD be the duty of a newspaper TO CORRECT.
Joe Dunne DOES talk frequently and at length. But cer
tainly his talk DOESN'T make sense. It never has made sense
and never will make sense. Take all his talk since ti. campaign
started, place it end to end, and it makes the greatest ""dge
podge not only of the purest political hokum and clap-trap, but
the most astounding contradictions ever offered to a long suffer
ing electorate in the political history of this state!
To the Oregonian such talk may have vigor and charm. It
may make votes though we seriously doubt it. But it certainly
does NOT make sense, and wc have a higher view of the Ore
gonian 's intelligence, than to believe that that excellent paper
really believes for a moment that it DOES' mako sense.
Such a statement is simply an example of partisan hypnosis
inevitable error that creeps in when a newspaper backs a candi
date without conviction and without enthusiasm ; because of
the political label he bears, rather than because of his superior
fitness for the office to which he aspires.
A mincing young lady, to Judge by
her letter, withes to bo told bow to
overcome being annoyed and Irritated
ttsmr- by the following
noises: snoring,
Up- smacking,
shrill or loud
voice, stamping
of hard heels,
loud breathing,
spitting and snor
ing. Oddly enough

throat, sniffling.
whistling, hum
ming, tapping on tne table or the
arm of chair, tapping with foot on
the floor, In fact she Is a remark
ably tolerant person for a crank.
A woman who snores most of the
night, with periodic startling cessa
tions, followed by cadenzas and stac
cato effects and false starts and deep
groans, sometimes happens to wake
and catch her husband peacefully
snoring. She Just can't endure it.
and makes the man wake up and
turn over and keep perfectly quiet
until she Is off again. Now If he
were as temperamental about It as
Bhe Is, either he would be a raving
lunatic or she would be deceased by
now.
What Is It about snoring that so
annoys some persons? It Is sugges
tion, and association. They hear the
dreadful commotion and to them it
sounds for all the world like some
thing most repulsive . . . Indeed
more' than one wife has separated
from her husband because hla snor
ing killed her love.
Z don't suppose there Is any sense
In this, but I hope It doesn't betray
my lark of taste and my boorlsn
origin when I say that If one re
gards snoring philosophically or in
scientific light. It loses most of
its power to annoy or disturb one's
peace of mind or prevent one from
sleeping. Each snore has Its own
special character, you know. It la
amusing to He there and classify It
as to pitch, rhythm, timber and all
that sort of thing. Before you know
it you'll be forgetting to notice.
You drop off and hear the horror
no more until perhaps when you
awake next morning. j
Seme varieties of snoring are stop- ,
ped by the proper treatment of the i
simple chronic or hypertrophic rhl- j
nltls or by diathermy treatment of
the hypertrophic tonsils. Other va
rieties call for resumption of a fair
degree of physical activity or train
ing to take out the slack, the flabbl

cases the condition Is a clear Indi
cation for a good reduction regi

burn off fat and Impair health, but
a rational regimen which will Im

In the records of more than 3000
cases where patients (of various phy
sicians) have reduced from eight
to forty or more pounds on such a
regimen, there are frequent reports
of the cessation of snoring as one
of the happy by-effects noticed by
the patients or their friends.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
Sweat.
Is It dangerous to apply anything
to the armpits to stop the annoying
sweating there? Mrs. L. M. E.
Answer No. But some agents used
for the purpose are too Irritating.
A solution of one-half ounce of alu
mlnum chloride In two or three
ounces of water Is satisfactory. Mop
some on the armpit and let dry,
then another coat, and let dry,
finally a light application of fresh,
clean cold cream. Such treatment re
peated once In two or three weeks.
controls the trouble In many cases.
How to Break Arm.
Can you tell me an easy and sure
way for a person to break his arms?
For a certain peculiar reason I de
sire this Information. Miss M. C.
Answer There are several fairly
sure ways, but none easy. Have you
tried scratching your left ear with
your right elbow?
Temperature.
I have a steady temperature of
.3. It never varies even a little.
Shall I see a doctor about it?
J. O. 8.
Answer The thermometer la prob
ably broken. It is unwise for a lay
man to take the temperature unless
under special medical Instruction to
do so. What you don't know will
never trouble you.

A SIGNIFICANT headline:
"Lumbermen Call for Abandon
ment of Price Fixing."
That Is to say. after something
more than a year of experience wltn
something else, they prefer to go
back to the fixing of prices by the
law of aupply and demand, rather
than by SOMEBODY'S ORDER.'
THIS WRITER, whose opinion is
merely that of one Individual and
not Important, thinks they are wise.
As a fixer of prices, the good old
law of supply and demand Is hard
to beat.
f
ANOTHER algnllicaut headline:
"Federal Pay Cuts Dropped.
Government Will Resume Pull Sal
aries on July 1."
The government, you see. PUSHED
UP prices. In order to make business
better. Now It Is learning that prices
have risen faster than wages, and
something has to be done about It.
THE WORST menace to business
right now la that prices, under
the spur of NRA, Inflation and va
rious other devices, have risen faster
than the ability of people to BUT.
It doesn't make so much difference
what you GET, you know, as what
you are able to BUY with what you
get.
LL OF WHICH brings up tne
a, only rule for prosperity that
really WORKS, which Is this:
"Prosperity exists when there la
an even and fair exchange of goods
and services among ALL CLASSES
of the people."
That la to say, when everybody
is able to trade what he has for
what others have, on a fair ana
equal basis, there la prosperity, RE
GARDLESS of prices.
ANOTHER significant headline:
"France Fears War."
A Paris dlspstch says: "An Im
portant cabinet member In a private
conversation recently stated the be
lief: 'France facea a stave of war.
He said the majvty of cabinet
members feel this to be true."

For 20 Mill Limitation
It la only because they are un
informed as to the benefits received
from tax limitation laws In other
states, that the voters are so luke
warm In their attitude toward the
30 mUls real estate tax limitation
proposal which Is to appear on our
Oregon ballots next Tuesday.
The 40 mill tax limit measure In
Washington has been the most wide
ly helpful legislation ever passed In
that state and halted the whole
sale confiscation of homes and farm
land for taxes. It changed their
archaic tax system under which real
estate paid practically all the ex
pense of government, just as It will
change our tax system In Oregon
and bring order out of chaos, and
It Is the only thing that ever will.
Fourteen states now have tax lim
itation laws. Ohio limits real es
tates taxes to 10 mills, Michigan
to 15 mills, and so on. California
levies no state tax.
I regret that the teachers went
on record against this measure. They
have been misled.
Of course those with their wealth

Ed. Note: The Washington llmlta-
tlon is 40 mills, while the Oregon
proposal is only 30 mills. In prac
tically all cases where an arbitrary
limitation has been adopted, there
has been a sales tax or some other 1
special tax to make up for the loss
of tax revenue. This paper's con
tention is simply that such a source
of revenue should be supplied before I
the limitation Is made Instead of
after.
