I R Ul From the Wall St Angle NEEDLESS to say Roger 'W. Babson ii a capitalist. He was born a capitalist, he has lived a capitalist, he makes his living as a capitalist out of other capitalists. A more money minded, ultra-conservative, devoted disciple of Big Business, could scarcely be imagined. Yet Mr. Babson does not join his fellow capitalists at the wailing wall, weep crocodile tears over the passing of the good old days, and maintain that all is lost unless they are brought back. Nor does he contend that the only hope for a return of prosperity in this country, is to kick President Roosevelt and his New Dealers into the middle of next week, and put a stop to this spending spree on the part ment." Many Roosevelt policies Babson criticizes and criticizes severely, but the main purpose of his administration he com mends. He is particularly strong in hie conviction that the present program of government spending for relief J1UST be continued. rfK famous economist and financial expert recently complet ed a trip from one end of this country to the other. He occupied a stateroom in a Tullman as no doubt befits his social and financial standing, but every afternoon left it and spent two or three hours talking to fellow passengers in the smoking cars and day coaches. Here is his conclusion: "When I left Florida I wu opposed to tha government's extravagant expenditure, but I have returned home more sympathetic with President Roosevelt's relief program. Radical ism Is growing everywhere. The masses are fast losing faith In the capitalists system. I am now convinced we muat either continue to feed and clothe these unfortunates who are unable to help themselves, or else witness something far worse. Roose velt may yet prove to be capital's beat friend." Continuing his observations Mr. Babson, who was one of the few economists to predict the 1929 financial collapse, expresses his belief that President Roosevelt will not. only be re-elected, but by a large majority, probably carrying every state west of the Mississippi with the exception of Kansas. He would concede bis oppsnents less than 200 electoral votes at most, in 1936. WE put no great faith in Mr. Babson 's political predictions, or any other political predictions at this time too many tilings may happen politically in the next year and a half. But such a prophecy is interesting in that it emanates from such a source from a man whose interests and associations are so bound up with 0. 0. P. political theories and traditions, so generally opposed to the spirit and purposes of the New Deal. It certainly indicates pretty strongly that President Roose velt is still popular with the American people as a whole. With the main Babson thesis moreover, we entirely agree, and think it would be well for the country at large, if more men of the Babson type, studied the situation first hand as he did, and came as they undoubtedly would, to the same conclusion. No one likes this spending could be stopped. But until the conditions which make it neces sary are eliminated it is only a matter of enlightened self inter est from a national standpoint, to keep it going. No one likes to have a government that is spending more than it is taking in, but after all, having such a government, is far better than having no government at all! Farewell To IT was just two years ago this month that an alert, wide awake, pleasantly spoken man stepped breezily into the local cham ber of commerce and announced he had come to make Medford the headquarters of an extensive It was just as sudden, brief and business-like as that! Twenty-four hours later, such headquarters had been estab lished and was functioning, it and enlarging ever since, until one of the largest and finest CCC administrative units in the United States. need hardly enlarge upon what this has meant to Med- ford and Southern Oregon. Everyone knows about it. It has by and large been the greatest boon to this section of the state, that, has been experienced during the post war era. And the outstanding success of that venture, and the extent of its many benefits, have been chiefly due to the man who made the first brief announcement, MAJOR C. H. ARMSTRONG. to his unremitting zeal, his tireless energy, his whole hearted de votion to his job, and his interest in and loyalty to Medford and Southern Oregon. PIvOM the first somehow Major Armstrong seemed to talk the Medford language. lie had what we are disposed to call the Medford spirit. He was keen, hustling, up to date, and also, a very agreeable and charming gentleman. Devoted first and last and all the time to the proper development and welfare of his own organization, he nevertheless was never too busy nor too concerned with the details of his special task, not to be keenly concerned also with the development and welfare of this community. And now as also everyone knows the major is about to leave. Medford hates to lose him but that was to be expected the U. S. army is always on the move, it's the army theory of all around development and tradition. On Thursday night of this week, the Jackson County Cham ber of Commerce gives, a dinner in honor of Major Armstrong on the eve of his departure, and needless to say the SRO sign should be hung up early and undoubtedly will be. Certainly there is no dining enough to accommodate AI.I, the people who would IIKE to say goodbye to him, express their appreciation of his services here, and wish him success and aetivitv whatever and wherever SEE NO MONOPOLY BY ZELLERBAGH CO.

And so It Is, If you re overnour- lshed. But If you are not already over fed and under worked, or an actual victim of some serious dis ease, it is gener ally beneficial In every way to have a bedtime lunch or In some circumstances to latce a regular meal Just before going to bed. This Is sound physiology. U Is natural and normal to sleep after a full meal. Remember, I am speaking about healthy folk. Invalids, of course, must have the advice of their physicians about this. If your arter ies and heart are all shot and there is a possibility of cerebral thrombosis or a "stroke" from clotting of blood In the veins in the brain from slowing down of circulation, It may be as well not to go into a snooze right after a big meal. But we don't care about that. We're advising peo ple how to keep well. It would be too trite to say that the bedtime meal must include only wholesome and easily digestible things. I think you laymen are pret ty dumb but I don't think you would knowingly eat anything unwholesome, either at bedtime or any other times. And as for food which la "easily di gestible" that's all the old hokum bunkem; the only question Is, do you like it. and does It appeal to your ap petite? If so. It la at least as easily digestible for you as would be any other Item which you do not like so well. Probably one reason for the com mon notion that bedtime eating Is unwise la the experience of personB who Indulge In superfluous and un necessary food late at night, highly seasoned dishes calculated to appeal to an already aatleted appetite, or things easily swallowed even tho one be not hungry. Then, too, these In temperate Indulgences are likely to be accompanied with more or less alcohol and tobacco and artificial ex citement, all of which tends to de stroy sleep, and the sinner attributes the ill effects to the "late supper." The Ideal bedtime snack for an un derweight, frail young person who hasn't sufficient vitality consist of a, pint, more or less, of pure fresh milk, preferably raw (If Certified Milk or Grade A Raw from tuberculin tested herd Is available) with bread or Communications She's Through With rVhl To the Editor: Believing that at this time that I should make my position clear to the people as re gards Earl H. Fehl, I request that you print this communication. I did not become acquainted wltn Earl H. Fehl until approximately two weeks after his induction Into the office of county Judge. I came to the support of Fehl. believing that a man elected by the people should be given a fair chance to show wheUier he would keep his promises to his constit uents. I would do the same for any man elected to any public of fice. Owing to certain Insinuations ap pearing in this week's edition oi the Central Point American, that on account of Fehl'a incarceration in the penitentiary, that I had ceased to be his friend. I take this means of clarifying the atmos phere. In August, 1933. I learned that Earl H. Fehl had settled the "parr Judgment." for one thoxisand dol lara or less, on April 10. 1933. and furthermore, that he had been re ceiving his salary directly from the county from that date. Also, that previous to that time, he had been assigning hts salary, day by day, to his mother-in-law, Mrs. Stsley. I was in constant attendance at the trial held the week of May 13, 1935. a I believed that the truth of the "Parr settlement" would be brought out. I heard Earl H. Fehl, himself, testify that this settlement did take place on the tenth day of April. 1933. and furthermore, admit that he drew his salary hlm .elf from that date on. About the lost week In May or the first week In June. 1933. at a picnic meeting held at Lake Creek, Ore., I heard Fehl publicly state that he had never received one cent of salary from the county. To my knowledn. many people, under the impression that Fehl was practically destitute, were giving him not only money but foodstuiis Many of these people could III af ford these contributions, still Fehl accepted them. Fehl hud an opportunity to make itood that seldom conies to any msn. He had the confidence ana backing of the majority of the peo ple.

In a few4 cases there is reason to think chronic arsenlo poisoning may be the cause. Warts Boy of fourteen, healthy, but hands covered with warts. (Mrs. W. a.) Answer See that he scrubs the hands thoroughly with hot water and strong laundry soap at least twice daily. Oently rubbing fresh castor oil on each wart once a day for a week or so often removes them.

The agreement does not grant union recognition, but may permit the laborltes to get somewhere If they show reasonableness and re sponsibility. The first thing Frank Walker did in hts new relief superintending joo was to frame the six relief principles laid down by Mr. Roosevelt in his message to congress. This frame Is kept on Walker's dek.

O.'McIntyre NEW YORK, May 18. A group Of the Ohio home folk had a dinner the other nlgbt and drafted reso lutions asking my wife and me to return for a visit. As I haven't been home for 27 years, It was thoughtful and perhaps signifi cant to see the names of the sheriff and po lice chief on the scroll. A refurbished ancestral home with expansive front porch and yard centering a 100-year maple are awaiting. Plus a neighborly warmth a city never ac quires. After five years in a New York apartment house I exchange bitten-off little bows with three other tenants. Three only I I am In reverential awe of the old Gallic town, whose origin has been splendidly romanticized in W. 3. Sibley's "French Five Hundred." It Is emblematic of all the wholesome simplicities. Some day, likely soon. I will pick up enough courage to go back, but somehow I'd like to remem ber as I last saw tt. I have told mannerly fibs as to why I never returned. The truth la too many of my Illusions have crack ed wide open. This one I want to hug tight and never let go. It's the only haven of which I have no mem ory of pettiness, deceit or a solitary vestige of man's Inhumanity to man. There are no rich in Galllpolls, as we know in larger cities. But there are no slums, no record of a man, woman or child going hungry. I should say 80 percent of residents own their homes and automobiles. Its three sturdy banks have gone through the depression without a buckle. Not many businesses have changed rvids. Like the gentle cluck and sag of the Ohio that laps its upsweep of levee, it Just keeps rollln' along. So far as I know. It never In dulges one of those worldly flourishes that often stampedes a more peaceful commune and makes it ridiculously ostentatious. It has the serene sense of permanence of its surrounding hills. I always resent the implication that small towns are viciously cruel with gossip. I have breasted the billows of Broadway's swollen and profession al libel too long and I have fieard more reputations torn to tatters in a single evening at Dlnty Moore's, Llndy's, etc., than in all my time in a small town. More often the small town Is guileless in shielding Its un worthy. The natural beat of its heart Is kindly, protecting, forgiving. So Gallipot! Is symbolical to me of that pocket of calm the scientist tells us Is the tornado's vortex. With the world in furious churn, it has re mained as placid as the exquisite stillness of its summer evenings. At least that s the picture my retina retains. To go back and find that was not so would be a wrench. The end of the last Illusion! Such a gesture they have tnduleed toward me in inviting me back, how ever, proves the friendly currents are still running strong. Of course, I could not think of returning in the raise role of the conqueror, with flans waving and bands playing.
