GENKRAL MARTIN when cami aigning for Governor prom ised if elected to cut dow n expense! of state administration. He was elected. Now he wishes to fulfill that promise. But the moment he tries to eliminate extravagance and waste, there is a terrific howl from those tax-eaters who have person ally profited by such a system; and strange as it may seem many (jood people are disposed to heed that howl. To these people our advice is "FORGET" it!" YOU can't have your cake and eat it. You can't eliminate a system of waste and extravagance without treading on the toes of those who have profited by it. Of course these birds will howl, but let them howl. What hurts them it going to benefit the state. Take this hulabaloo over the fish and game funds for ex ample. The leader and spokesman for the protesting sportsmen, was a Fortland attorney, who admitted that hie fees from the game commission, amounted to the neat sum of $9000. No wonder he bellowed until the window-panes shook, and the lady clerks next door, scurried for the exits under the im pression there had been an earthquake. What attorney wouldn't make a terrible racket for $90001 If the Governor has his way that lawyer won't get a dime, under the new fish and game regime. What legal work may have to be performed will be done by the attorney general's office, at no cost to the taxpayers. The aforesaid attorney doesn't like that and he is going to do everything in his power to prevent it. But why should any citizen who really wants more economy in Btate administration, aid and abet him! So it is all down the line. YOU can't cut out needles! jobs, and unnecessary services, and have those deprived of "easy money" rise up and call you blessed. For every nose in the trough that ia stepped on there will be a howl, and before the operation is completed, these howls will mount to a terrific roar of pain and indignant protest. But that is all to be expected. Martin is going to pRy no attention to it, and certainly the people of the state in whose interests he is fighting, should not. Let them howl and meanwhile only way to reduce expenses in them I Keep the MEDFORD is on the air mail map and wants to stay there. The United Air Lines provide this service, and have made an enviable record for speed and safety. But unless congress repeals Section 15 of the Black-McKcllar Act, the United Airlines will have to abandon their Medford service, after March lst,because that act, prohibits any trans continental carrier from also carrying mail on the Pacific coast route. Naturally United would abandon its Medford servici; rather than its San Francisco-New York service. , At best such aotion would render satisfactory air mail service on the Seattle-San Diego route, impossible for a long period of time. This coast route is a difficult one to fly. If the contract were given to some other airplane company, it would be mauy months before regular service ability not only money but lives would be sacrificed. The final outcome might well he the abandonment of the Pacific coast air mail service entirely. THE purpose of this Black-McKcllar Act, of course is to pre vent nn nir mnnnnnlv. Unt if rnilronria. like the Southern Pacifio and Great Northern are allowed to carry mail not only cast and west but north and south, we fail to see why the same privilege should not be granted to airplane companies. The air mail service is now established and well operated. It has taken severnl years to perfect such an organization. To abandon it now, and try to break in another airplane company, would in the judgment of this paper, not only be unjust to the United Air Lines, but a disservice to this community and every other community on the coast.

GOOD ADVICE FKOM A VICTIM A reader think, I (01' Doc Brady) uaed poor Judgment when I suggested hr that a young man who com plained of being nervous should get out and play three old cat or other games which give both exercise and di version. "I had a friend." the reader govs on to say, "who was given that sdvloe, and he d l a d a few months later of tuberculosis. I also had a 'nervous breakdown and am now la a sanatorium. If that nervous young man la In the early stages of tbc. he should find It out as soon as possible, end since your advloe may put him on the wrong track I think you should Inform him of the possibility." In the last piece printed here on the subject ( Yankee Hustle and Nerve), I aald at the outset: "Two fairly common serious 111 neses masquerade as 'nervous ex haustion' In many Instances. These are Incipient pulmonary tuberculosis and exsphthalmlc goitre. Quite frequently minor Ills of divers character are neg lected or maltreated as 'weak nerves' or some auch thing." Numberless times I have asserted here. In my well known arlbtrary fashion, that there is no such thin as "nervous exhaustion" or "nervous breakdown." But this positive asser tion alwr.y seems to provoke and offend s good many readers who are practicing nervous imposition on themselves or on the rest of the world. So, times being bad. I compromised with 'em. Revised tne whole chap ter, dividing the nervous and near nervous into two great classes: Class A neurotics have something really the matter, as suggested above, birt as cribe everything to nerves. Class B neurotics are the real moochers. tiie Impostors who use "nerves" or "nerv ous exhaustion" as sn nllbl and an an excuse. With that I wash my hsnds of It. Every neurotic may de cide for himself to which class he belongs. In print the render's suggestion be cause It is good advice. Let everyone whose nerves are shattered, worn out, Mclntyre at Palm Beach By 0. 0. McINTYRE ' PALM BEACH, Jan. 31. Among worldly callings Is that of chief clerk at a smart resort hotel. He BaMppP-MHaian HlUSt knOW tllS y k 1 Soclril Register as i I well as the Al- iiiniitti: lie uuum and be an adroit differentiator. He must, while hand ing the pntron a registry pen. sep arate the sheep from the goats. Ipstantly he should spot the fortune hunter. If these gleaners find lodgement, wealthy patrons for tub oeaeon with attractive daughters will move out. Then there are the adventuring ladles, the professional handkerchief droppers of the lohblra, who make a polite formal note pay enormous blackmail, . Exclusive Inns house the slickest of the International ftahers for sucker money. In the relaxing mocds of bridge, golf, tea or verandah rock ing, contacta, otherwise difficult, are easily mode. Big hauls that never reach print are made in such dc luxe surroundings. Thus the chief clerk must hare a Scotland Yard eye. He Is well paid for his brief season and often runs a hunting lodge up north In sum mer, Or Is manager of a swank yacht club. In other days, he got valuable market tips. A number are well off. ' The house detective here. too. is above the average. He must have a photographic mind for the world, and his wife who drift through the elaborate foyers. One of t he oldest of the houne dicks Is the whlte-edec-veated and 70-year-old William H Casev, watching the parade for 20 years.

Patients subject to angina commonly carry a vial of tab lets and take one whenever they feel distress, or better, take one several times e dny. Glyceryl trinitrate Is powerful and rapid In action, the ef fect being felt In a minute or leas when a tablet Is dissolved In the mouth. Such tablets usually contain from s two-hundredth to a one-hundredth of a grain of nitroglycerin btit they become Inert on standing for some time, as the substance Is so volatile. (Copyright, 1035.

S YOU have read In the news, the a old, old lieutenant-governor bill Is before the legislature again. It j has been voted down repeatedly by the people, but It keeps bobbing up In the legislature. IN THIS column the other day, a lieutenant-governor for Oregon was likened to a spare tire for your car. If the car of state gets a puncture. we put him on to get us to the next election. If there la no puncture, wa forget him. THAT raises thtsquetlon: What kind of tire do you nor mally use for a spare? WHY, you use an old cripple, of course one that you wouldn't think of trusting with the hard, RE SPONSIBLE work of getting you where you want to go. over all kinds of roads, safely and economically. It would be the same way with a lieutenant-governor. Any old candi date would do. THE Job of lieutenant-governor Is not worth kicking up a fuss over, but with as many useles political offices ss have been pushed oft onto us In the past few years. It. seems a pity to deliberately push another one off onto ourselves. OPEAKINO of political offices, It Is reported on lainy cujupevcub u thority that one person out of every six in this country Is employed by government of one sort or another. That means that the remaining five of us have to SUPPORT the sixth I ET'S put It a little mors simply. Ls Suppose six people are engaged In raising a garden, in order to pro. vide food for themselves during the winter. Five of them work hard, and PRODUCE, but the sixth calls him self the government and lives off the rest. What would that mean? It would mean that the five would have to work harder and OET LESS for themselves than If the sixth man turned in and did his share of the actual work of producing the garden. It couldn't mean anything else. jfB HAVE to have government, of f f course couldn't do witnout as a matter of fact. But when five men' have to work hard In order to support the sixth, It is TOO MUCH GOVERNMENT. WE HAVE jtoo much government already for our own good, and If we're as smart as we ought to be well fight bard against having any more of it pushed onto us. 4 (Continues f.Jm page one) plated with any of the gold bloc countries.

The game- was a benefit affair for the SONS, who hope to attend te national tournament. With dazzling passing, the elongat ed Swedes (none of whom - were Swedes, by the way) had no dlflculty at U tn handling the "grand old men" of local basketball, and scored whenever the thought moved them, keeping a safe margin of about 10 points between themselves and the A 11 -Stars, and clowning the rest of the time. All credit Is due the All-Stars, how ever, they having stepped into the fray as an accomodation, and not with any Idea of walloping the barn stormers. Unable to do much about the Swede scoring, they proceeded to score as much as they could them selves, and kept the game interest ing. Not in tslrtc training, and only recently organized, they acquitted themselves nobly, and will prove a formidable outfit lhter in the year. The Swedes used only five men, while the locals used nine.
