It is the handiwork of A. N. Hasenltamp of Portland and proposes a state board of control for the legal profession. The author of the measure declares the legal profession has not, and will not, clean its own house, ho the people of the state must do it for them. Mr. Hnscnkamp's method of doing it, is for the Governor to appoint a legal board of control of three members, one of whom shall be a woman, and none of whom shall be, or have been, members of any Bar Association, or related to any member of the Bar. After the appointment of such a board, all permits to prac tice law in the state shall be cancelled and every attorney shall then make application for a new permit, upon the payment of $5, which shall be good for one year, unless revoked by the board for cause. Thereafter annually, each attorney shall make application for a renewal of said permit, upon the same payment, unless there is in the opinion of the board, cause for refusal due to the acts of the applicant. It shall be the duty of the board to study the general practices of the courts, suggest reforms, and for cause suspend the permit of any attorney. THE bill is loosely drawn, and will come under the heading of "Fnnl MpHfiurofi " Pnft.inr finch 1 ' 1 if n unrl rlenth" r-nntrn! over any profession, in the hands of three people, who know nothing about that profession, would be extremely dangerous and unwise. But as an emphatic gesture to convince the legal profession that there is considerable public dissatisfaction with its attitude toward reform, and the tedious delay in bringing about any tangible results, we are FOR such a proposal 100. The bill should not pass, and probably will not. But if its presentation WILL speed up the reform movement in the legal profession, already underway nol only in this state, but through out the country, it will have served a very useful purpose.

A SMALL item which appeared in this paper a few days ago, failed to receive the attention it deserved. This was a brief press message from Snn Francisco, relntinii how a Mr. and Mrs. James Cook of that city, who had been on federal relief since last April, fell heir to a cash bequest of $2000. . What did Mr. and Mrs. Cook do about it! Did Mama Cook run down town to get a new fur coat and a permanent wave? Did Papa Cook rush from the house without his hat to make the first payment on a new "airflow" bus! No. Believe it or not, the Cook couple did none of these things. They talked over their good fortune quietly, and decid ed before they would do anything else they would pay back Uncle Sam for the relief money given them. So to tho relief headquarters they proceeded, found the bill amounted to $218.13, "Pop" Cook wrote out a check for this amount, and the couple departed with heads held high, "square with the world 1" A j I ET the Lugubrious Blues and Cynics Incorporated, put that little item in their pipe mid smoke it. Here is a type of "rugged American individualism" we fear has been overlooked in their pessimistic calculations. . How many Mr. and Mrs. James Cook arc there on the relief roles of this country! We don't know. But we have a pious idea there are more than the long-nosed brethren nt the wailing wall, imagine. At any rate hats off to Mr. and Mrs. Cook of San Francisco. If we had any influence with President Roosevelt which we haven't, we would see that this little incident near the Golden (ate, received White House recognition and at least a vote of thanks from Administrator Hopkins in their stocking, Christmas morning. We could think of no example more worthy of national recognition, or more desirablo for the people of the country to emulate, at this time.

Dec. 12 APt Tha war department announced to day allotment of StHXVOOO to begin repairs on the SMith Jetty at the entrance to the Columbia rlvar In Oifgou aud Washington. Four gradea of profile posture are recognized, namely Excellent or A, Good or B, Poor or C. and Bad or D. similarly the an terior posture la graded Excellent or I, Good or II, Poor or III, and Bad or IV. According t o Dr. c. Ulysses Moore of Port land, Ore., who Is a recognized au thority, not one f yfjwl Per9n ln thou- aana nas a i pos ture. In examin ing a great many children. Or. Moore found a 4-H Health club girl who had ."the most natural and unae- Bumlngly perfect profile' he had ever seen. Her anterior posture was like wise perfect In every way except the arches of the feet, which rolled to gether and obliterated the normally open space extending from the In ternal malleoli (ankle bone) to the great toes. So she graded as having an A II posture that Is excellent profile but Just a good anterior. This girl won the Oregon state contest and the interstate 4-H club contest for 1932. Another girl won In similar con tests In 1020, though her posture was graded B I. When her picture was taken In profile she threw back her ahouldeitf "as if she had been taught to do so.' That gave her more sway back than she normally haa. Bo she was graded B on her profile posture. Dr. Moore teaches that It is a mis take to Instruct children to throw back their shoulders. Never mind the shoulders Just keep the chest up and forward and tht? er the belly in. I agree as to the shoulders, but 1 think It is pretty tiring work holding the chest up and the belly ln. It is simpler, and easier, as It seems to me. to pay no attention to your chest or your belly, but to keep your chin tucked Inside of an Imaginary high collar and imagine you are toting on your head a great basket loaded with, fruit or a par filled with water. In deed, I believe It Is excellent posture practice to carry some such weight on the head and balance It there with little or no help from your hands. Consciously striving to hold In the belly oh, have It "stomach" or "ab domen' If you're so darned prudish tends to interfere with natural breathing. I think. Natural breath-. Ing is belly breathing, not chest: ; diphragmatlc, not costal. Perhaps Dr. Moore's Instructions and mine are Just two different ways of achiev ing tho same thing, as some col leagues say. Not that I know any thing about It or pretend to be an authority. I'm Just giving my no tions. I am only an amateur. The test of profile posture la a plumb line which should pass through the auditory meatus (opening of ear canal), the acromion (bony tip of shoulder), the greater trochanter (hip prominence of femur) and the exter nal mammeolus (ankle bone). Test for sway-back: Have individ ual stand back to wall, shoulders and buttocks touching wall, heels 2 or 3 Inches from wall. Chest out, belly ln, the back at waist line should be bo close to wall that the fingers can barely be thrust between. More about posture soon. qi'ESTIONS AND ANSWERS Cardiac Dyspnea . What treatment do you recommend for cardiac asthma? I had angina pectoris 18 months ago, and four months later the difficulty of breath lng began. (G. H. J.) Answer. Cardiac means heart or pertaining to the heart. Term "car diac asthma" is unfortunate. The hard or difficult breathing (dyspnoea) or shortness of breath, commonly oc curring when the heart U impaired, perhaps only upon exertion where the heart's reserve force Is only part ly exhausted, is a circulatory manifes tation and not at all akin to real asthma nor responsive to remedies or treatment which would be good for real asthma. I'm always willing to hazard a guess If I think it may do any good and will do n harm, re gardte&a of our w, k, medical ethics. But I would earnestly assure O. H. J. and others with similar conditions that in my Judgment the only person in a position to treat cardiac dysp nea successfully or even safely la the physician who examines the patient day by day and knows the ar ual state of the heart. The Desire to Dwindle I am 18. weigh 123 pounds and am only S feet tall. Will you kindly give me a well balanced diet? I have been dieting a long time but it does no good. (C. N.) Ans. Dumb "dieting Is likely to do a good deal of harm as well as falling to bring about the desired reduction. Send 10 cents In coin, not stamp, and inclose a 3-cent stamped envelope bearing your ad dress, for booklet "Design for Dwin dling," which gives Instructions for dieting to reduce and to butld up or at least maintain good health.

NEW YORK DAY BY DAY By O. O. Mclntyre Jy NEW YORK, Dec. 13. The swanxy upper East Side Is offering some thing new ln living quarters. The ' town's wealthiest reporter, Luc.ua Bee be, calls them hoArdmg houses "with a white, tie and grouse flo-ir lah." Anyway their grandeur threatens to tie d e p o pulnte che penthouses. It Is a gesture in compact living I never before $ equalled. Instead WW 1 Wonted apart ment houses, the promoters arc tak ing over a number of elegant private mansions circumstances have thrown on the market and making each floor a jewel box of refined elegance. Tli us the outward Individuality Is maintained with an Inward reg I limi tation of politely tiered magnificent the sky scraping apartment cannot achieve. The first private mansion to fall was the Chauncey M. Depew home just a few steps off the avenue. The Joseph Pulitzer town castle followed and other negotiations are on the fire. The charm or the exquisite interiors la preserved but the ten ants may have the service of the smart hotel or conduct their estab lishments with the domestic privacy of the great homes. 0 On the Bowery of all places sev eral barber shops sre offering a fre: manicure with hslrcut or shave.

Frank Fay, the actor, Is reputed to have the moat artistic and expressive hands to be found, next to Rach maninoff and paderewskl. John An derson, dramatic critic, has hands coveted by sculptors. Also Paul Whit man. Among ladles, likely the moit famous hands are those of Helen Menken, Helen Morgan, Eva La Gal llenne and Ruth Draper. Vet tapering tinkers do not always betoken great artistry. Rodin found the hands whose symmetry pleased him nv,st were those of a cloddish Paris lame lighter, who lifted them to apply tt.e taper along the rue de Valos.

(UP) The first big snow of the season here chose to come on the day Rudolph Leblnger had a very ( unpleasant election bet to pay off. Leblnger had to take a swim ln a large reservoir. He had his choice of wading through the large flakes and taking his plunge or paying $25. Mrs. Earl Mackey and Miss Fern Day. winners of the bet, found it too cold even to witness the pay-off.

Rules Saar Basin By FRANK JENKINS PERHAPS your eye fell on this lit tle paragraph,' in the day's news: 'The United States was in receipt today of a volley of 'no's' ln answer to requests that various European countries pay their war debts." If so, your first thought was prob ably something like this: The next time some European coun try wants to borrow money from the United States, its answer should be a volley of no's. f THAT, of course, is a case of lock ing the stable after the horse Is stolen, but It might prevent AN OTHER horse from being stolen. EDOAR HOOVER?"head of the bu reau of investigation of the fed eral department of justice, address ing the crime comerence now ln session in Washington, says the only way to put an end to gangsters and their crimes Is to eliminate political pressure. That is to say, turn honest officers loos? on 'the criminals WITHOUT INTERFERENCE by the politicians and they'll clean up the gangs In short order. That sounds like good sense. , ME ADDS that notorious gangsters such as LMllinger, Floyd, Bailey and others began as petty thieves, bootleggers and hangers-on of crime and ended with wholesale killings from ambush with machine guns, but NONE was a superman. Of course not. Supermen have more sense than to go Into a career of crime which, they know, never pays ln the long run. BELIEVE It or not, scoff at it if you will, call it old-fashioned if you choice, but after all honesty pays bette" ln the long run than dishonesty. A N OTHER thine There are more honest people in the world than the cynics and the wise-crackers and the smart guys would Mve us believe. And a surprising number of the really successful people of the world, big and little ahae, are honest and dependable. Being honest and dependable help ed them to be SUCCESSFUL. , ANOTHER paragraph ln the day's news. It Is from a Washington dispatch, and is HIGHLY SIGNIFI CANT. l reads: " "Treasury figures announced today show an increase ln the million-dollar class ln 1033, and a sharp decline in the number of persons with net incomes up to $5000." That Is to say, redistribution of wealth by LEGISLATION AND TALK isn't working. IF you want to redistribute the other fellow's wealth, getting It out of hi? pocket and Into yours, here lo some good advice: Don't rely on the politicians. Just be a little smarter thai the other fellow, more willing . to work hard and bear heavy responsibility and to save up your money against the time when you will need it. That way will work, whereas the politician's way won't.

Dec. 7. ( AP) Wide spread Improvement Jn business ln general, rises in foreign trade and an administration building program which will be of material benefit to the lumber - manufacturing northwest, were reported by Kenneth D. Dawson, president of the States Steamship company, who returned today from a prolonged business trip to New York and Washington, D. C. "I found that foreign trade, very important to the northwest, is stead ily improving." Dawson said. "We have created a favorable trade bal ance of $500,000,000 while last year It was not more than $100,000,000. He said business conditions with in the nation are generally better than last year. "I say this." he de clared, "after crossing the continent twice and spending two and one half months In New York and Wash ington " "Of vital interest to this section of the country," he continued, "is the government's plan for remodel ing and betterment of housing fa cilities, going along at a rate of ex penditure of about one billion dol lars a year. This ts bound to affect favorably the Pacific northwest's lumber and other business and em ployment In Oregon and Washington." Post Office With Byrd Ex pedition Is Hampered by Cold Collectors Wait Return of Cancellations WASHINGTON. (UP) The postof flce department's part In the present Byrd Antarctic expedition, which has cost stamp collectors approximately $100,000, Is causing a few premature gray hairs among postal officials. The truth Is, the department says, that the Little America postoffice has not been very successful in canceling some 50.000 special stamp covers, which should have been returned to collectors many months ago. No One to Illume However, the department is not blaming anybody. John Oliver La Gorce of the Na tional Geographic Society, official Little America postmaster, never got any farther than the dock at Nor folk, Va., where the expedition set sail, they explain. His job was to see only that tho special stamp cov ers, which carried an extra 53 cent service charge, got on the ship. The rest was left to Leroy Clarke, a member of the crew, who, as as sistant postmaster, was to find a nice quiet piece of Ice in Little America for a postal Igloo, and cancel stamps. Because Byrd had made a success ful trip to the Antarctic before, the department felt everything shou!d run smoothly, lney even Issued a spe cial "Little America" stamp for the occasion. Tonsil Job But, as postal officials point out now, anything can happen ln the Antarctic. And a lot did happen, which, the department agrees, hardly could have, boen expected to make stamp canceling the favorite sport. In addition, when Clarke found time to attend to the postal business at hand, he was Jlnxed, ln trying to find a piece uf Ice that would stay In position lone enough for him to set tip his canceling machine. It Is also pointed out that ink hos a bad habit of freezing. But now that the expedition is more settled, the department expects the stamp canceling business to pick up In Little America; they are deter mined to go through with the pro gram. More Covers Last week they sent Charles F. An derson, department cancellation ex pert, to the expedition with 4.000 more covers and additional equip ment, including an Indelible pencil. Of course, the department says, the Antarctic elements haven't been ex actly easy on the special covers, hut the department feels a few blurs ought to add to their value.

Ye Poet's Cornei DEAR LITTLE HOME Dear little old home! How I love you. Spot dearest on earth to me. Though I may roam, ' My heart ttlll clings to thee. Place where I've loved and labored. Where" griefs have wrung my heart. Yet ever, ever In thy walls, Joy hath had a part, And faith kept tryst with me. To stay my aching heart. And so the joys or pains That have come to me. Have been like clinging ivy, Planted near a tree. Have clung and htmaed me close, Twining around my heart. So of all the golden acres The world might give to me. There are none half a sacred As my little home to me, Where faith and love held sway. And perfect peace can be. MRS. MARY O. CAREY. mi ui iini us -'a sftftirWte.il PLAN WELL, BUILD WELL!
