They can recite incident after incident showing how the present occupant of the White House has gotten the breaks Our own opinion is luck in politica is about the same aa luck in football. There is undoubtedly such a thing aa GETTING the breaks. But it is also true that nine times out of ten what LOOKS like luck ISN'T. The team that GKTS the breaks so often, by hard, skillful, heady them. It is the same with President undoubtedly enters into his amazing popularity, but behind it all, and as a foundation for it, is sheer political skill, the presi dent'a clear understanding of human nature, and the intelligent way, at all times and under all conditions, he uses his head. H OWEVER in the release budget message, we do believe, the element of luck entered. The President's excellent message to congress came first. Then after an interval of two days, came the budget message which under NORMAL conditions would have been subject to consider able criticism. But because of the sensational developments of the Hauptmann trial, conditions during the interval were NOT normal. The people of this country as in this budget message. There is practically no public interest in it now. Everything is Hauptmann, Jaffsie, and the latest news from this sensational trial. Who cares what the facts and the figures of the budget may be. Figures are dry and so is economics. Tell us the latest from WE don't mean there is anything at all reprehensible in the hiuWr. messnce. nnvthincr the administration cares to hide, it may even be true that all recommendations therein, are de manded by sound public policy. But the document does show what a serious financial situation this country faces, and how impossible it is, under the policy adopted to make federal outgo equal or reasonably approach federal income. In short it is "had news." But thanks to the intense public interest in the New Jersey trial, it is not generally accepted as such. The President didn't "time" this message. That it came when interest in the Hauptmann trial was at its height, just "happened." This we believe IS a clear-cut example of what could rightly be called "Roosevelt luck." Private Vs. Public Spending WHAT does a good business mau do when, because of a seri ous onierrrenev. lie finrls he in snenilinff more than he is taking in He decides, as long as this emergency continues, to cut his overhead to the bone, to spend nothing he doesn't HAVE io spend. Why shouldn't a government follow the same course! , .... IN his recent budget message President Roosevelt asked for 4 billion dollars for relief. He admitted this huge sum would be necessary during the next year, because widespread unem ployment still exists. Few will criticize the President for this action. The first duty of the government is to provide food and shelter for the destitute, if this burden is too large to be assumed by the states. As long as this critical condition exists, Uncle Sam must dig down in his pockets, to relieve But President Roosevelt also emergency, the government can must continue 'to spend more than it takes in. All right. Then why shouldn't the- government eliminate every other expenditure that isn't absolutely demanded for national security or one might even term it national EXISTENCE! . . 'T'HIS query is brought forth because of that portion of the budget message which calls for an INCREASE over 1034, in the appropriation for "REGULAR" government costs, of over $600,000,0001 This is not the total appropriation, it is merely the annual INCREASE for 1M5 OYER Ifl.'Vl. In what direction have condi tions so changed within twelve months, that routine government costs must be raised bv three-fifths of a BILLION dollars! Well here are tho main increases: a boost of $1SO,000,000 for national defense ; an increase ot $fi,",000,000 for higher govern ment pay; a 12.0,000,000 allotment for MORE "publio works"; a $130,000,000 increaso in veterans pensions; a $20,000,000 boost for the civil service fund, an added $50,000,000 for the veterans certificate fund, etc., etc. Now it's very nice for government employees to get higher pay, just as it is no doubt pleasing to the veterans to secure larger pensions; but we seriously doubt the wisdom of granting such increases, when the government is already living beyond its income. A T any ral financia rate this much is certain, no individual in a similar ial situation would icy. He would figure that an overhead that had carried him through the critical year of lP-lil, could be MADE to carry him through the critical jcar of 1!V!,", and until his income again at least equalled outgo, that would he the mark to shoot at. Well perhaps that is one reason why routine governmental expenses continue to mount at such a startling rate, and in spite of all the talk and agitation, it is so difficult to reduce them. At the bottom of it all, may well be the refusal to apply the principles of good management universally accepted in PRIVATE business, to the Pl'BI.K' business a sort of perverse insistence, not only by those in public life but by THE PEOPLE AS A WHOLE, that when government (national, state or locaO, is concerned. SOMEHOW ordinary business principles do not apply, that the only real difference between government and Santa Clans, are the reindeer and the whiskers! JUSTICE APOLOGIZES FOR MEMORY LAPSE PEAVTl K.

Of course prophylaxis may apply to preven tion of o t a e r things aa well as disease. Then the denturs use he term In a still more special sense. to signify a surface cleaning of the teeth. Anaphylaxis Is not so familiar. It means the opposlt. Increased suscep tibility. Anaphylaxis Is the opposite of Immunity. As physicians use this term it applies to the peculiar hyper eensitlveness or susceptibility to the effects of any foreign protein sub stance Introduced Into the body by other route than normal digestion. And when this peculiar reaction oc curs physicians assume that the spe cific foreign protein has been intro duced Into the body previously, by one route or another. The most familiar anaphylactic re action la the distress which occurs in certain individuals the first time they receive a dose of horse serum, or in some Instances the second time such serum Is administered. The re action may manifest itself as Intense Itching with erythema (reddening of the skin) or hives, or as an asthmatic attack, or as a violent gastrointes tinal disturbance with vomiting, pain or colic, diarrhea. As a precaution agninst such dis tress, when It is necessary to admin ister a serum, the physician may. If there ts time, first test the patient by injecting only a minute fraction of the dose and waiting for an hour. If no unpleasant reaction occurs within that time It Is quite safe to administer the full dose, though an noying hives ut similar discomfort may occur a few days after a dce of serum In any c&ae. If a patient has received horse serum at somo previous time, or if the patient is subject to asthma, horse serum should not be administered without; preliminary dese nsltiza tlon of tne patient. Bovine serum should be used tn such circumstances. There is no Instance on record where alarming or fatal anaphylactic shock has followed the administra tion of antitoxin as a remedy for diphtheria.

People say It Is from the very hard water. Can you sug gest anything to put In the water or anything to take to prevent this? S. M. Answer So far as we know, the hardness of water never causes any Injury to health, as long as the taste of the water Is satisfactory. I know of no means of preventing appendi citis. It would be beneficial to make a practice of eating some plain wheat every day, either raw, or run through the coffee mill and cooked as por-. ridge, cooked a short time or a long time, as you prefer.

WH HY? Because markets were glutted and prices low. When prices are low, people BUY MORE. THE president of Swift & Company, commenting on this statement in the yearbook, aays: 'The situation was an extremely un fortunate one for producers, and I hope that the unavoidable losses they suffered will be more than off set by profits In the years lmmedl ately ahead." IF THAT comes about, HOW will it come about? The answer to tnat question Is rel atlvely simple. When the price of any particular product or commodity falls below coat of production, two things normally happen: 1. Production decreases, because poducera find they can no longer pro duce at a profit. 3. Consumption Increases, because consumers find they can BUY MORE for the same amount of money. With production decreasing and consumption Increasing, the over-supply tends to disappear. As the over supply disappears, production at a profit la again possible. THE law of supply and demand, you you see, la more or less self -regulating. That Is why It works so ef fectively - ' F. SWIFT, president of Swift & V Company, addres,rg his stock holders at the end of 1934, says: "What we need and are seeking most of all la cash profits; profits that can be paid out In dividends or reinvested in the business as occa sion requires." THAT la what this whole country needs. Business recovery is delayed by lack of confidence. "Lack of confidence" la a more or less hackneyed term meaning that people fear to invest their money because they are afraid they can't make a profit if they do invest. As long as they feel that way about It, they will keep their money Idle, Instead of putting It to work, and when money Is Idle JOBS ARE SCARCE. THE biggest problem before the country today is unemployment, and In the hope of relieving unem ployment the President proposes spending at least FOUR BILLION dol lars on a new work relief plan. If the people of this country can ; Just get back confidence in their ability to earn a profit If they risk j their capital and their efforts, unem-; ployment will disappear promptly enough. A LOT of crackpots have been tell ing us for years that profit la a CRIME. If this dep:ess!on, a:.d our slowness In coming out of it, do no more than convince us that fair and reasonable profit Is NOT a crime, it wtll have been worth something. 4 Communications Nealon Thanks the People. To the Editor: Having just finished a two years term as county commissioner. I wish at this time to make a few com ments, express some gratitude, and perhaps make a few suggestions. At the beginning of my term 1 found much confusion prevailing, and in the minds of a great many people an open state of rebellion This had been brought about by the many misrepresentations and falsehoods published In certain news papers and whipped along by agi tators in many sections of the val ley. These .ad gained momentum through not being denied, with the idea that they were too ridiculous to be given any credence. This rlot oua state of affalra was finally brought to a cltmax and resulted In lengthy and costly tnala that nearly wrecked the finances of Jackson county, but with the clearing of the atmosphere was undoubtedly worth more than It cost. The part we took In this was for the good of Jackson county, and we in no way resret it or have any apolog.es to make, but would do the same again under the same circum stances. Audits and Investigations brought l' en; yed h other civ.mrv ot- Lcj tad aaflJ oil -set this and made it all worth while. To the many Individuals, organiza tions and publishers who offered sup port during the troublesome times, we extend our thanks and assure them that their expressions of loyalty were fully appreciated, and were a tremendous help to restoring law and order In Jackson county. R. E. NEALON. Central Point, January 10. Il l Sot Jack Steward. To the Editor: In your paper of Monday. January 7, there is an article appearing which states that a Mr. Stewart, store keeper of Evans Valley store, was arrested for improper sale of In toxicating liquor to a minor. On several occasions I have been approached on the streets and asked in regard to above mentioned arrest. I would like It understood through the columns of your paper that it was not I, Jack Steward, who was arrested. There is no general store on Evans Creek except ours and we do not handle beer or other intoxi cating liquors. Mr. W. L. Stewart operates a confectionery and beer parlor at the fork of Evans creek. Our store Is known as the Evans Creek or Evans Valley store. I sincerely hope that this may straighten up the situation In re gard to me. JACK STEWARD.. Rogue River, January 8.
