MEMBER, r V 7 Sec Wallace Invades "Kingdom of Huey"; Seeks Farm Support of AAA ALEXANDRIA, La., May 11. (AP) Secretary of Agriculture Henry A. Wallace, addressing a slate-wide ag ricultural rally here today In the do main of his frequent critic, Senator Huey P. Long, called upon the) farm ers of the nation to stand firm In their support of the agricultural ad justment act. "It Is time for farmers to get up on their hind legs and right for what they know to be simple Justice," he said, adding that "your united stand for the cause of agriculture was never more necessary than at the present moment." Two weeks ago Senator Long fired bias tagolnst the AAA and the new deal policies In Secretary Wallace's home city, Des Moines. The next few weeks will prove oruclal," aald the cabinet member. If the ranks of agriculture hold firm, we have some chance to Im prove the agricultural adjustment act and come doner to winning for agri culture Its fair share of the national Income; but If the ranks of agricul ture are divided, It Is almost a cer tainty that what farmers have battled for for 15 years will be lost." Secretary Wallace declared the farm situation changed when Presi dent Roosevelt came into office. Since the farmer has to buy In a protected market, the farm program of the new deal found & way to help him sell In a protected market. Fut the first time, through the device of the processing tax, the majority of farmers had a tariff that actually worked for them. Mother Day Poems MOTHIK WAS ALWAYS GOOD Kind friends, I want to soy.

"Because of surpluses so huge as to overshadow our whole national economy, because of the limited amount of food the human stomach can consume, because of a shattered farelgn market for farm product, agriculture In 1933 won the right to adjust Its productio nto the market that actually existed. "The agricultural adjustment act borrowed the centralizing power of government so that agriculture might at least begin to win back r a little of Its fair share of the national In come. Now that these govern mental powers have been used by fillloru of farmers fo rtwo years, the cry has arisen that they must be taken away. I do not hear this cry from any large number of farmers. They know that a moderate use of these governmental powers has help ed put them back on their feet." The agricultural chief vigorously defended the AAA, declaring repre sentatives of business have no right to complain about production control under that program. "Those who charge the AAA with Inducing scarcity simply do not know the facts. The American farmer always has produced enough food for every man, woman and child In the United States, and I am sure he will continue to, given a chance to stay on his farm and In business. The adjustment programs have cut down production for an export market which no longer exists; they have not deprived the people of one ounce of necessary food." RAZING OLD WALL SALEM. Ore., May 11. AP) The temporary restraining order against the razing of the walls of the old capltol building was continued to day by Judge L. O. Le welling of the Marlon county circuit court until Wednesday, at which time he ex pected to hand down his d;clslon on its dismissal or permanency. With the statement, "I believe you gentlemen (speaking to the opposing counsel) misunderstood each other," Judge Lewelling announced he would study the additional citations added to the briefs during oral argument today and prepare his decision by Wednesday of next week. The Marlon County Taxpayers' league, represented by President Hen ry Zorn. Fh Jnry. Wlllard Stevem. and Martin Rostvold. during the week had obtained a temporary restraining or der against destruction of the walls of the burned building, contending it was the duty of the state legislature and not the board of control to pro ceed with the razing.

In March 39.148 persons, most ot them heads of families, were on the rolls. In April the total drop ped to 39.668.

Thousanda ,of young men from "white collar" Jobs gained sev eral pounds in weight and reduced Inches In girth during the months they were In training camp preparing for military service This physiologic al fact must be considered when d e t e r m 1 lng what "cor rect" weight should be for person of given ace and height. Water is heavier yet lesa bulky than fat. Individuals following a sound re duction regimen uniformly observe that their measurements begin to diminish before the acales show any lowering in body welfU; likewise they notice definite Increase In their bodily vigor, or should notice this 'f the regimen is right. The decrease in bulk In the first two or three weeks before any proportionate decrease In weight occurs is due to the convers ion of fat into water and carbon di oxide (by natural metabolism or in ternal combustion, the physiological way the body burns fat), and tbjb water Is retained In the tissues until readjustment of the metabolism en ables the body to excrete It. The first essential in correcting un derweight Is n complete medical ex amination. Whether the Individual has always been underweight or his lost weight. It la necessary to deter mine whether there Is any latent, smouldering. Insidious underyllng disease. Why mention diseases which such examinations may reveal? Don't wonder or worry about the possibil ity. Break down and treat yourself to a health examination and find out for certain Just whet your condition Is. Just the assurance of a good doc tor that you have nothing like that Is worth the price. One who was formerly plump but latterly has lost flesh or become em aciated is not unlikely to suffer from ptosis or sagging of abdominal or pelvic orgons, falling, displacement, and In such a ense a carefully fitted supporter may Improve d Ideation and promote gain In weight. Such a sup porter la effectively prescribed and fitted only under the Individual physician's supervision. Of course It la only a makeshift, and whatever gains are made from It should bo consolidated by posture treatment and exercise to restore "tone" or resi liency to the natural support. Physical activity tends to take off weight, and Inactivity conduces io accumulation of fat.

An hour of extra rest, even tho one does not sleep helps to store up fat. A long after noon nap or mid-day siesta Is a good habit when one wlshea to gain weight. But even the skinniest of creatures requires a fair amount or exercise dally to maintain the best state of nutrition, unless there n some particular condition which ren ders exercise un advisable In the Judg ment of the physician. It Is important to remember that a moderate excess of weight in youth la not only pleasing In appearance but such plumpness seems to be as surance against that great destroyer of youth, tuberculosis. Past the age of thirty, however, any excess of weight becomes a handicap to the heart, blood vessels and general me tabolism and may be regarded as life shortening. Few stout persons live a ripe old age. Here Is where corpu lence definitely impairs vitality. ' QUESTIONS AM) ANSWERS f ravel Because of some gall-bladder trou ble I have been on a fatless diet for about five years. Lately I have had gravel, in one kidney. Could this be caused by a vitamin deficiency due to my restricted diet? (Mrs. M. C. P.) Answer Not unlikely. There Is considerable evidence that deficiency of vitamin A la a factor of kidney stone or calculus or gravel. Send 10 cents and stamped envelope bearing your address for booklet "Building Vitality" which gives details about the vitamins you need. soap and Witter How may I destroy possible germs on the mouthpiece of a wind instru ment without using hot water or hot liquid or disinfectants that would leave a disagreeable taste? (W. R. J.) Answer Soap In tepid water will dispose of any germs as effectively ni can any disinfectant or antiseptic solution. Neck Exercise Any hnrm in exercising neck with springs and head gear? Will this en large neck muscles? My purpose ts to fill out my neck to make my Ad am's apple lesa conspicuous. (P. A M.) Answer I doubt that such exercise will accomplish the purpose. Perhaps by gaining weight you will rill out the neck. Moderate simple exercise without apparatus will best develop the neck. Rolling somersaults and stondtng on head would do so.

Now and again a columnist arrives at his type writer In an ebullient mood. He feels he might, in the manner of pressing an electric but ton, release a cascading tor rent of ideas The light, vola tile stuff that means absolutely nothing but might entertain The French have a word that describes I t -ambiance. Some thing subtler. more psychic than atmosphere A dandy caption for t well-turned-out effort of that sort would be "From Under an Oxygen Tent." I hear one grows goofy with a few whiffs. And might perpetrate some thing like this: An orchestra leader in the Rain bow Room la called Jolly Coburn. What a terrible burden it must be to try to live up to it. One could imagine life becoming a perpetual simper. Another good French word Is emberllficotate i. e. tortuously to entangle and complicate.

As " these words are written, she has covered In about nine hours some 1300 miles of her proposed 2100 mile non-stop flight, and there seems no reason why she will not com plete it, -pHE interesting part of this flight is that it is undertaken without ballyhoo, Just a casual stunt, under taken, apparently, without much preparation. Non-stop flights from Mexico City to New York must still be regarded as "stunts," but there is every rea son to expect that In the not too distant future they will be everyday affairs, attracting little or no atten tion. Even now they attract no more attention than a 100-mlle automobile trip attracted 35 years ago. 4 IF YOU are still reasonably young, the time will come when you may own an airplane and hop off as cas ually for Mexico City, or Miami, or Alaska, or perhaps even Honolulu, as you now get in your car and start for San Francisco. (This, of course, only in the event that you are willing to work hard to get the money with which to buy an airplane and the gasoline to run It and to pay your hotel bills when you get there. If you are one of those who are bitten with the bug of sitting in an easy chair and waiting for the government to bring your living to you, there will be no air planes for you). WE ARE too apt in these days of so-called over-production and scarcity of Jobs to think of all the great days as past and of all the worth-while developments as having been made. That isn't true. If people don't get OUT OF THE HABIT of work, In these dole years of waiting for pros perity to get up confidence enough to come around the corner, there will be far greater developments in the future than we have ever eeen In the past developments that will change utterly our habits of living. THIS headline is reminiscent: "Ore gon Railroad to Cost Millions." j The railroad referred to ts projected from Port Orford to Leland, and Is a PAPER railroad. Twenty years ago, we were building paper railroads all ! over Oregon, and every town that was up and coming at all had at least two or three of them up its sleeve. Now we aren't much interested In paper railroads, but are Intensely In terested In new highways. Times change. THE government, we read, is ex pected to take over administra tion of relief from the states about July 1. Thereafter state relief agen cies will be responsible to Washing ton Instead of to the governors of I the states. One reason given for this Is the controversies that have recently arisen with several of the states. An other Is that centralization of relief forces will provide a more responsive organization. Another reason, not mentioned but MUCH MORE IMPORTANT, Is that next year Is a campaign year. PORTLAND. May 11.
