Hearst Wants Fascism
IF WILLIAM Kandolph Hearst has his way and he often
has, this country will go Fascist, with a dictator in the
White House, and William Randolph the power behind the
throne. ,
From coast to coast the Hearst press is plainly directing
its tremendous power of propaganda in this direction. It is
persistently raising the scare of Communism, the impotency of
the Roosevelt administration to check it. the need of a strong
hand to take over executive control, and preserve our cherished
American institutions.
Mr. Hearst, as far as is known, has not selected the man
he wishes to become the duly authorized dictator of our des
tinies. But it is no secret, that he is in close personal touch
with Father C'oglnn; that he has ordered "hands off" Huey
Long; that he has refused to antagonize the Townsend sup
porters; that on his recent trip to Europe, he spent many days
in close conference with Hitler the Nazi chieftain, and was
granted certain exclusive press priveleges, by der Reichs-feuherer.
The truth probably is, Hearst
present writing, who his candidate will be, or, of course,
whether or not dictatorship will be possible. He is hoping how
ever, strongly hoping. ' ' .
Meanwhile, his strategy is one
the various forces of unrest and revolt, go their several ways,
in the hope that eventually they will unite behind one out
standing lender. When THIS
be there, with no entanglements which will prevent him, from
throwing every resource at his command behind the "man on
horseback;" and under the guise of putting down red revo
lution, maintaining law and order, restoring prosperity to a
long suffering nnd disheartened people, he will put over his
coup d'etat, similar to the one which gave Italy Mussolini, and
Germany "Adolph the Great."
AT LEAST this is the view entertained by many of the lead
ince nnlitir-nl ohRPrvprs and boat informed nawennnnr mpn
in the country. There is not only much evidence to sustain it,
but Mich a role, unquestionably fits into the known character
of William Randolph Hearst, PERFECTLY.
Hearst has always had one consuming passion, and only one,
the desire for power. His professed love for the common people,
his devotion to. what he called
extension of newspaper control
all had this one purpose in view,
The accumulation of a fortune and he is one of the richest
men in the world, has not interested him, EXCEPT as it gave
him power. To attain some personal end, lie would toss away
a million dollars, with no more reluctance than if it were as
many cents.
Now, having passed the traditional three score and ten,
thwarted in his early ambition to be President, and smart
enough to know he never can be; what more natural or plaus
ible, than that he should see, in the evening of his life, and
amidst unprecedented conditions of social, political and eco
nomio collnpse, the golden opportunity for which he had waited
so many years.
Democracies tumbling over liko ten pins, dictatorships rising
to take their place, the passion of the American people for
peace and security, their fear of red revolution and disaster,
why the world is made to order, for Hearst at last to realize
the dream of a life time, and one that Fate has so long denied,.
So people interested in politics and the future of this coun
try, would do well to watch the Hearst press carefully during
these trying times, and scrutinize the political contacts of "the
chief" with care.
Ono thing is certain. Unless normal prosperity does return,
within the next year, unless improvement is more rapid and
certain than it has been, the time will certainly be ripe for
some form of Fascism, and Hearst will be the man to put it
over, if it CAN bo done.
A Base and Loathsome Thing
rTQ OUl mind, Secretary Ickcs is delivering sonio of the host
speeches on the current political problems, that have been
delivered during the Roosevelt administration.
His address on relief, delivered a week or so ago, was a
gem of clour thinking, forceful logic, and true human feeling.
Yesterday, as guest of honor at the annual meeting of the
Associated Press his talk on free speech, and particularly on
demagogues striving to gain political power, through misleading
and misinforming the people, was a masterpiece.
Unfortunately, space prevents printing the speech in full,
or even giving at the present time more than a suggestion of
me wisuom aim truth it contained. Hut the following brief
extract wc believe should be cut. out and pasted on the wall of

What is sassafras root used for?
Any harm in giving It to a child
three years old, or drinking tea
made of the root? Does the weed
known as "Spanish needle" have any
medicinal value, used as a poultice
or In ointment? Mrs. D. W. E.
Answer Sassafras Is a flavor only.
Very large doses may act as narcotic
poison. Unwise to give such things
to a child It cultivates a craving
for stimulants. Spanish needle (31
dens biplnnata) has been used as
emmenagogue and as expectorant in
bronchial diseases, tho it Is rarely
used in medicine today. I have no
data on its use in poultice or oint
ment. .Man with Tin Ear Enjoys Immunity

Comment
on the
Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
HP. B08W0RTH., formerly of
Medford and now Copco man
ager at Klamath Palls, came to Ore
gon on 48 hours' notice. He gradu
ated from Cornell, and two days later
a Job opened up In Medford. It had
to be taken at once, or left.
He didn't know , much about Ore
gon, so he hunted up the encyclope
dias and started reading up. -The
encyclopedia makers had apparently
never heard of much In Oregon out
side of oPrtland, for they bore down
heavily on the rain, citing annual av
erage precipitation of 40 to 50 Inches.
So Bos, being a prudent soul and
believing In preparedness, went out
and bought himself a raincoat, a rain
hat and an umbrella, and seriously
considered laying in a pair of hip
boota but finally compromised on
galoshes. .
H
IE ARRIVED in Southern Oregon
late in May, he says, and tt was
four and a half months before he saw
even a drop or rain. After three
months of tt, he'd have given some
body a real bargain in rain equip
ment. Bc
OS landed in Medford, and after
parking his luggage he set out
up Main street to see the sights.
Tiring eventually of foot transporta
tion, and noting street car tracks and
a trolley wire, he stopped on a corner
to wait for a car,
He waited what seemed to him an
unconscionable time, and then he
waited some more. Finally he stoped
a passer-by and asked: "Can you tell
me when the next car will come
along?"
The stranger looked him over, then
grinned in a friendly and companion
able way. "No," he said, "I don't be
lieve I can. But I can tel! you when
the last one came."
"I bit," Bos says, "and asked when."
"Just about six years ago," was the
answer.
BERT HALL, heading for the wild
and woolly west, stopped off first
In Colorado. He'd been given the op
posite slant from Bos, having been
told that It practically NEVER rained
In Colorado.
So he stepped off the train at Gree
ley, aa innocent of umbrellas, rain
coats and such as an Arab from the
arid wastes of Sahara.
"And It was raining when I got
off," he says: "a misty, determined
sort of rain that looked like it meant
to last till the end of time."
f
SO BERT, not being equipped for
the outdoors In such weather,
hunted up a hotel and went to bed
to gt warm. He got up the next
morning and looked out of the win
dow, and the trees were covered with
SNOW.
"I started down the street," he
says, ""admiring the snow-covered
landscape, and all of a sudden I look
ed up in a tree ahead of me and
there was a MAN hanging from a
rope."
THE body, it developed, was that of
a short-tempered gentleman who
had come home one night oiled to
the eyebrows, got his sick wife out of
bed and beat her to a pulp, so that
she died before morning.
He was arrested that night and
lodged In Jail, and the neighbors or
ganized a necktie party and came
down to get him out to be the guest
of honor, but found an aggressive
sheriff on the Job.
Knowing the sheriff, and realizing
that the only way to get around him
wauld be to shoot him, and having a
lot of respect for him, they corked
up their anger and went home.
BWT they set a watch on the sher
iff, and the first time he got out
of town they went down to the Jail,
collected the wife-beating citizen,
hanged him to the nearest tree, dust
ed off their hands and went home.
That was the night it snowed and
Bert Hall got to town. -"I wondered
what I'd got Into," he says, "and
made up my mind to be good."

on "The Rabies Racket," It Is aald:
"The laboratory examination of the
brain tissues of the animal that had
been 'suspected' Is not at all a scien
tific test. It la a mere attempt to
impose the fancy and belief of a phy
sician or even the physician who has
charge of the patient or who knows
the circustances.
"The laboratory worker's belief or
fancy that he or she has found cer
tain characteristic cells or artefacts,
called negri bodies, Is not a scientific
matter. Another equally well trained
and equally experienced laboratory
worker may examine the same speci
mens and fall to recognize the negrl
bodies."

Some Easter Thouchts.
I am sending a few thoughts
which came to my mind this Easter
aa I look upon the lovely wild flow
era growing In their quiet, beautiful
way, and they offered quite a lesson
to me.
1. Death I defy life eternal.
2. The wild flower fills its Bpace
In the most lovely manner, develops
and radiates loy to the weary.
3. Growlnjt bv the dusty lane it
endeavors to grow and perfect Itself.
Do I try hard to do the same in
circumstances, making the best of
life and growing nobler and truer
to my fellow men.
These are Just a few Ideas given to
the hurrying autoist who may not
even see the wild flowers to know
them and enjoy these breaths from
the Great Creator of all life.
The silence of the wild Hower, to
the autoist:
Do you know of what I am, ;
Or from whence I came?
Do you know that you and I
Partake of life, somehow, the" same?
I grow by the country lane.
And you call me a .wild flower.
I am adorned In gay color;
I waft a fragrance, unseen.
I try to fill the space of my destiny.
I wonder, do you try to do the
same?
Seated in your auto, you whisk by.
While I am left there to die.
Covered by dust from the parsers by
Yet in the Great Silence, death 1
defy.
You and I in life, somehow share
alike,
We live, we breathe and we die,
But through the shadow of death
A new life gleams nigh.
I wonder who win be the flower,
Away out yonder. Just you or I.
I endeavor to grow by the dusty
lane;
Do you try hard to do the same?

Thereare about 22 categories of ques-
tionson clothing. They will ask the
males about five different classes of
suits: namely, heavy wool, light
weight wool, cotton - linen. Palm

categories of shoes: two street pairs,
two work pairs, canvas and "other."
This should be easy for most hus
bands earning less than 12.000 a year.
Mothers and daughters may find it
more difficult because there are seven
different kinds of dresses to be listed,
kinds of hose, six different kinds of
shofs (including two for sport wear).
Then, in addition to certain unmen

males will have to tell about the
number, prices, expenditures and time
purchased of "Arctic gaiters, night
gowns (cotton-light, cotton-flannel,
and silk-rayon), bathing suits, pa
