Cause for Thanksgiving V CERTAINLY Med ford will have plenty to be thankful for this coining Thursday. Had there been a wind last night any sort of a wind, nothing could have saved the Toralin box factory, and probably nothing could have saved the entire in dustrial district contiguous to it. As it was the oil tanks near the burned office building and Velail yards, got very hot, and any kind of forced draft in their direction might have resulted in a major catastrophe. That the main factory of the Timber Products company was saved, with its productive power unimpaired, certainly reflects great credit upon the efficiency of the Medford fire department, and the entire volunteer force that turned out in the early morn ing to give valiant assistance. The Timber Products company is one of the largest and most successful industries of the kind in this part of the Rtate, and thunks to extremely capable management, has been able to maintain a normal payroll, throughout the most severei depres sion in our national history. The loss of such an industry, as winter approaches, would have been a severe blow not only to the owners and employees of the company but to the entire community. It is a matter of general congratulation that the main factory of the Timber Products concern was saved, that the burned portions enn quickly be rebuilt, and that the industry will soon be operating on a full time basis, as before. The narrow escape from a disaster of major proportions, emphasizes the necessity of maintaining our present excellent fire department, at the highest point of efficiency, and the need of careful supervision on the part of the state fire marshal, in the direction of eliminating fire risks, adjoining as this district does, the outer boundaries of a municipality.

Your coat was fiayrd at the end of the sleeve" and nefded clipping at intervals When you nerdod a haircut dad The Instill Acquittal 'T'lJE acquittal of Samuel Insull, was practically a foregone conclusion. The deposed utility magnate was not indicted for sharp practice, not indicted for greed, stock manipulation or unscrupulous exploitation, he was indicted for using the mails to defraud. Even had Sir. Insull been guilty of some crime or crimes, which this paper always seriously doubted, his conviction by a jury would have been unlikely. The fraud had not only to be proved, but the direct relation of the U. S. mnils established. , . . IN'SULL is now an old man, broken physically and financially. A very strong appeal on his behalf could be made to any jury. For while hundreds lost (heir ALL in the Insull collapse, Insull lost everything also, and with his fortune went his dreams of power and pride and prestige. Under the worst circumstances a very strong case sentimentally could be made for the venerable defendant. ' Press reports of the Insull trial were not full enough to justify a definite opinion regarding the strength of the case the government made against him. But it has alwayg been our be lief, that the significance of the Insull case did not rest in the laws 'that ho broke, but in the practices that he followed, and which the law allowed any unscrupulous financial promoter in his position TO follow. YTo doubted his technical guilt, but we never doubted his moral guilt and do not now. He was a perfect example of the sort of sharp practice, and get-rich-quick avarice, that has throughout the past generation, aroused such a deep popular resentment against Big Business as a whole, and created such a deep-seated prejudice against AVall Street. . . . . TXCONSCIONABLE greed is at the bottom of it. The dis- position never to be satisfied with a fair. profit for service rendered, but to charp all the traffic will bear, in an effort to get more millions into a few hands, and build up a few more top-heavy fortunes, at the expense of the people as a whole. The main basis for this paper's strong pro-Roosevelt attitude, has been its conviction that the chief purpose of the New Deal, is to do away with this sort of thing, to drive the money chan gers from the temple, and to save the capitalistic" system, by eliminating its most flagrant abuses. .... WE are not at all sure the conviction of Insull would have niderl the iwlmniistriitini, tliia ,l!in,winn IT. Va n,.rti!,- till, brings into sharp relief, the NECESSITY of drastic changes in our methods of business control, so that in the future, finan ciers and exploiters of the Insull type, can he held within bounds', before the harm has been done, instead of after. And that is one of the purposes of the administration's new securities act. Had that act been on the statute books ten rears ago, there is reason to believe that the Insull collapse, so fatal to him, and so costly to thousands of people in the Middlewest, would never have occurred.

Every lit tle while some reader appeals to this column for something that will reduce her at least twenty pounds before next month, for she mutt then appear as slen der as she thinks every one thinks she should be. For fifteen years or more 'I did some pretty effective dieting, In the future tense. I was conscious of In sidious expansion In several direc tions, and even more conscious of the Increasing limitations which ac cumulation of surplus flesh Imposes upon one. I had no middle name, but the appropriate one for me in those fifteen years would have been Procrastination. In the beat of sum mer I privately made up my mind to begin real dieting as soon as cool autumn weather came. In the winter time I felt that spring was the Ideal time to Institute my reduction pro gram. If a Journey waa to be made I resolved to take advantage of the occasion to get in some fine fasting. While on a Journey I enjoyed the food and firmly vowed to make up for It by adhering to a strict reduc tion schedule after I returned home. And so It went. Oh, yes, I did make several actual starts on one thing or another In those fifteen years of procrastination. Tried the Bread and Milk Club busi nessthat called for nothing but bread or crackers and milk each Monday. But, shucks, I'd rather have crackers and milk. If It's raw milk, than turkey and dressing any time, so there waa little satisfaction In that. The Karell diet, nothing but i skim milk, a glaasful, every three hours, was better, at leaat In the sense of righteousness one derived from sticking it out for a day, but one day of that waa plenty to satisfy my scruples; the day after a Karell day I sailed In and made up for lost time, and then some, - I haven't a doubt It would have gone on like that until I was quite submerged In my own fat, but It couldn't have been for long. People who grow fat after forty never do live long. Hunger Is not a simple Instinct. What the physiologists and psycholo gists do not know about hunger la going to make Interesting and In- j atructlve reading In the future. I j have learned something about It lately, since I reduced to the cor- J rect weight for one of my height and age, I have found that when I ' get a physiologically or clinically well balanced ration of vitamins dally, I am not nearly so hungry for the things we all know tend to make one too fat. My craving for carbohy drates la distinctly tempered by such a regimen, and where heretofore 1 have craved more food that I needed for maintenance, now X am perfectly satisfied with .considerably less food. To which vitamin or mineral or com bination thereof to attribute this. I don't know, but I believe a physio logically or clinically balanced com bination of all the vitamins and. the more Important minerals la best. My appetite has not been Impaired Not a bit. Lead me to a plate of fried corn meal mush or a stack o! buckwheat cakes and I'll show you, any time at all. But I have recovered a more normal or more natural ap petite, that's all. Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKlNH. TED CRAMER, of . Grants Pass', secretary of the Oregon Bankers' association, addressing a southern Oregon service club yesterday made this Interesting statement: "Since federal Insurance of bank. deposits went into effect, only Six small banks In the United States have failed." When you remember that there are nearly 15,000 banks In this coun try, the significance of that state ment becomes apparent. QUESTIONS ANI ANSWERS. Well, I'Ook Who's Here. Operated on for ulcer of stomach years ago, and have had several atom ach hemorrhages since. Otherwise In fine health. I have been told to drink a pint of goat's milk dally. Kindly give me your opinion . . J, M HcN. Answer First we've heard from Mr. Ben Told In months. Began to hope he might have met with a fatal accident. If you like goat's milk It is even more healthful than cow's milk. But I do not deem It worth more than cow's milk. One advantage of goat's milk Is that It never con tains tubercle bacilli, and cow's milk frequently contains thene tubercu losls germs. b. b. a Inclosed you will find 10 cents In stamps, for which please send your B.

We're odd In our attitude toward our money In the bank. When we know we can get It, we DON'T WANT It. But when we think maybe we CAN'T get It, we want It right aay. Insurance of deposit by the gov ernment assures people that they can get their money when they want it, ao they no longer want It. Hence the small number of fall urea since deposit Insurance became effective. INSURANCE of deposits Is one mighty good thing the New Deal has done. Confidence In the banks Is the foundation upon which reviv ing prosperity has to be built. SINCE deposit Insurance became effective, Mr, Cramer told his hearers, bank deposits In the United States have Increased more than four billion dollars. At least 75 per cent of this Increase; he thinks, 1 due to the deposit Insurance law; the remainder, probably, being due to Increase in general volume of busi ness. M INCREASE In bank deposits brings up the subject of the amount oi money In the banks available for loans. This money available for lend ing Is known technically as bank reserves. ' Bank reserves In thla country, Mr. Cramer pointed out, are higher now than at any time In history. That la to aay, more money is available for use right now than EVER BE FORE depression or no depression. THIS fact raises two questions in our minds: 1. Why is so much money lying Idle in the banks? a. Why don't the banks lend this money? Livestock.

Portland Produce H ERE is the answer to the first question: Money Is piled up In the banks because the owners of It aren't USING It. Instead, they are putting It In the banks for safe keeping until such time aa they want to use it. And here Is the answer to the secorid question: The banks aren't lending money because there Is Jlttle demand from RESPONSIBLE BORROWERS. A responsible borrower is one who can pay his loan when U comes due. TWO MORE questions and we're through : Why are people letting their money lie Idle In the banks Instead ot using It? Why are responsible bor rowers unwilling to borrow? Here la the answer to both ques tions: Because people haven t yet acquired confidence that under ex isting conditions they can MAKE A PROFIT. . A LOT of irresponsible persons time that making a profit -1s SIN FUL, and shouldn't be permitted. People who HAVE money, ana would like to be lenders, snd people who know how to use money, ana would like to be borrowers, fear that these shoutera have the ear ot the government and that making a profit Is hereafter to be regarded as a crime. So they sit tight and wait. LENDERS won't lend and respon sible borrowers won't borrow until they regain confidence In the ability of buslnesa to MAKE A PROFIT. When that confidence Is regained, business will go ahead again prob ably on a vaster scale than ever before. PORTLAND, Ore., Nov. 26.
