MEMBER ON WIMOWHir Ye Smudge Pot By Arthur Perry 323 new laws are now In effect in Oregon, There should be a law pro hibiting a citizen from breaking any of the new laws until he has broken all of the old ones. i The eloquence and enterprise or Tipst&te hell raise r in fomenting a recall election against Governor Mar tin, now lacks the rambunctiouaness of ten days ago. This seems to be due to the chief executive exhibiting a firm backbone, and a loudly ex pressed sentiment on the part of the people that a recall election was just the opportunity they sought to pin back, once end for all, the political eare of Willamette valley Messiahs, Mussollnis, and meddlers. . Mr. Harmon Waley, who confessed a part In the Weyerhaeuser kidnap ing plot, and now faces the hang man, waa paroled three times from prison. On each occasion, his biog raphy reveals, he assldlously man aged to return to atone walls. The suspicion arises that heretofore the most severe punishment adminis tered waa the two-hour lecture ad ministered by the Judge before paaa lng sentence. These stirring addresses are seldom heeded by the defendant, : but Invariably scare the courtroom audience. 1 i The activities of G-Men and O-1 Root Republicans are filling the . front pages this week. I Desperate tourists passing through the last two days, are In dire ex tremity. They raid gardens, and steal peas and potatoes, vegetables involve the labor of shelling or digging be fore eating, the local Chekka (or police) reports. H. Flewher, the demon baker is digging a welt at Lake o the Woods. As yet he haa not gone to It too often. Wheit completed, the well will be an Improvement, and give the owner something to fall Into besides the lake. The valley corn planted too late to grow la now effectively contradicting Its planters. Tax payments in this county show an increawe. Many profess wonder st what the payees are using for money. A careful study shows they are using the same thing used to buy new autos. The town is full of fancy shot guns. The shotgun Is sn ancient and honorable weapon, known In Revo lutionary times as a fowling piece. When sawed off, it Is extensively used by rascals in robbing banks, eliminating enemies and kindred kull-rtiiggery. It has also been em ployed In impromptu and informal weddings, and protecting rural hen houses and watermelon patches. It la also some times fired Into the ride of a hill to create the impression a gold mine has been discovered. Like Its brothers, the rifle nd the pistol, the shotgun wreaks the most havoc, when "unloaded." If fired by an Inexperienced party, he will stag ger as If kicked by a mule, or a swig of illicit beverage. Civil war Is now raging In North China, and around sawmill In North Oregon. e RAMPANT EFFICIENCY. (Gallup (X.

I repeat, health la the essence of beauty. One character istic symptom of pellagra, a nutri tional disease due to l n e u f flclent vitamin G, Is roughening of the skin which re semblea in ap pearance an old sunburn. P r o b a b 1 y many cases of so called "eczema1 or "psoriasis are really Instances of this degenerative change from a partial deficiency In Intake of vita min G. MoCollum and Slmmonde described the better -than-average nutritional condition Induced and maintained through an extended portion of the life cycle by the more liberal use of "the protective foods" in the diet as "the preservation of .the. character istics of youth." Langstroth noted that the skin of individuals whose, diet has long been poor in vitamins became sallow, ooarse, thick and harsh or dry, and thst when the Intake of vitamins was increased the skin and complexion Improved steadily, and the eyes, which had been dull gray or congest ed, became brighter. It la well to remember that the akin and complexion la part of the body, Just a the eyes, the teeth or the feet, and accordingly are subject to the laws of physiology. When there Is anything wrong with the akin or complexion It Is reasonable to Infer that there Is something wrong with your physiology, your nutrition, your hygiene, your, way of living, and It is silly to hope that you can correct the trouble by the use of , trick cosmetic. Among the foods rich in vitamin G are liver, kidney, round steak, egg yolk, dried peas, beet greens, raw cab bage (cole slaw), malted milk, lettuce, carrots, watercress, fresh milk, and dried yeast though yeast Is hardly a natural food for man. An ounce of dried yeast contain from 360 to 500 unite of vitamin O; an ounce of beef liver contains from 360 to 340 unite of vitamin G. It Is easy to eat six or eight ounces of liver a day, but an ounce of yeast a day la difficult to take.

When most suc cessful men be gin to clear off tholr desks and shuck responsi bilities, he be comes the bus iest man of his day. D e a p It e the pressure of his affairs and the blun derbuas of modern living, the major remains to all appearances an easy going gentleman. He Is an echo of the Victorian age when there matned leisure in the world, when one could read poetry or spend week-end In tale. Not even Intimates understand how he gets so many thlnga done. He haa time to putter In his vast flowei gardens on his up-the-Hudson es tate. And Is one of the perpetual hosts at week-end parties and formal dinners in an art-filled town apart ment. He la on dozens of committees and boerds of directors, a frequsnt sfter lunch and dinner speaker and first nlghter. Yet Is always at his desk at 9 o'clock, managing the af fairs of one of the lsrgest movie houses and assembling the endies details of his broadcasts. The dramatic critic's chorea begin to ease off the first of June and until September, save for a tew summer revues, he has time on his hands, Gilbert Gabriel usually re tires to a fauborg to write a book. John Anderson and John Mason Brown often go lecturing. George Jean Nathan, Burns Mantle And Brooks Atkinson assemble a volume of essays each and Percy Hammond takes things easy at his Easthamp ton estate. Three years ago a dramatic critic would have traded his Job for two marbles and a skipping rope. It seemed the most futile of the artistic callings. Five theatrical attractions were running when the normal crop snouid have numbered more than M. several of the critics sang their own swan songs in print and wre casting about for other connections. Then the theatre, so far as New York was concerned, was reborn Its rise has been steady. Next year may be the moat auspicious In many years.

Cat or Insufficient dally intake of a par tlcular vitamin, It Is generally better to Increase the intake of all of the vitamins. Vitamin do not occur Isolated, but always In combinations of two or more. In nature. It la in the refining, cooking, preserving of food that the natural vitamins are removed or destroyed. For instance, wheat contain vitamin A, vitamin B, vitamin O and vitamin E. In the milling and-refining to white flour most of the vitamins are removed snd discarded. Fresh raw milk contains A, B, C and O, but most of the C Is destroyed by par-boiling (pasteur izing). Sugar cane contains some vitamin B, which goes Into the mo lasses, the -refined sugar having no vitamins at an. v . Eggs, milk, cheese, wheat (the en tire kernel or berry), liver, round steak, the greens or salsd vegetables and fresh .fruits In season, are the Important- items to Include In the diet to provide the, vitamins to main tain health. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Iodln Doesnt Grow Stale. I have Iodine which a doctor pre scribed for me six years ago. Is It too stele to use as an Iodine ration now? Mrs. 8. J. D.

Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS KIDNAPING la again the big news on the day these words are writ ten this time the news having to do with what happened to the kidnap ers. That Is as It should be. 117HAT happened happened quickly. Little George Weyerhaeuser was kidnsped on May 34. Two of his abductors were captured on June 8, two weeks and a day later, under cir cum stances so incriminating that they had to break down and confess. By the next day, the officers were so hot on the trail of a third kidnap er that he had to abandon his auto mobile and some 15,000 of "hot" money, being saved from immediate capture only by the friendly inter vention of a savage dog that halted the pursuing policemen. He is now being hunted down and will probab ly be caught possibly before these words are read. THAT la quick 'ivork and good work. It ties In with good work. although not so quick, in the case of other kldnapinga. A little more of such and kldnap inga will lose their popularity as a means of picking up easy money. MONEY that is what the kidnap ers risk their necks for, and it Is proving regularly to be their Nem esis. It was - the Lindbergh ransom money that got Hauptmann Into trouble. It waa the same in the noted Bremmer and Urschel cases. And again it Is the ransom money that enables the law to lay Its fingers on the-criminal in the case of the little Weyerhaeuser boy. ONLY paper money will work. Gold Is no longer obtainable, and sil ver Is too bulky. Paper money BEARS NUMBERS, and these numbers are Identifiable. At first the kidnapers were care less, accepting NEW paper money. with serial numbers running consec- j utlvely and so easily recognized. Lat- j er they got more cautious and de manded' old money, thus making Identification slower and harder. But they still had to have paper money, and paper money bears num bers. Thst has been their downfall HA AUPTMANN, little and tight and cautious, waited a long time be fore ho began to spend his blood money, thus keeping the finger of suspicion away from himself for longer time. This latest crowd was . evidently short on operating capital, for Its members began almost at once to spend ' the "hot" money, and it was one of the first bills spent the one at Huntington, for a ticket to Salt Lake City that put the officers on the trail that proved to be the right one. There's a lot of poetic justice in the fact that It la the money, the greed for which Inspires the crime, that leads to the downfall of the gen eral run of kidnapers. A NOT HER, fact stands out like a i sore thumb: Waley, the captured kidnaper, waa committed to the Idaho penitentiary In March of 1930 on a one to 15-year Indeterminate sentence for first de gree burglary, and was paroled after serving 15 months. Mahan, the still-sought kidnaper, was also committed to the Idaho pen itentiary on a two to four years sen tence. He likewise wss paroled, in 1934. If you will think back through the published records of the other kid napers of the past two or three yesrs. when the big shots of gangdom were turning from bootlegging to other rackets, you will be struck by the number of them who have been In prison on one charge or another, but were PAROLED. THE lesson la about as plain as 1 day: Once we get criminals Into prison which, goodness knows. Is hard enough we should keep them there. a. mt (Continued from Page One ) and got the opinion that the coun try has greater hopes for Mie new deal Just now than the new deslers themselves. Said he: "When I ssked them about present policies, they generally expressed the opinion thst these would not do much good. And when X found some particular policy for which they had any hope, they said Its vslue would be only temporary." All these things may represent only a passing phase.

In none of the closed cases did the tender years of the victim elicit consideration from the kidnapers. The murder of the Lind bergh baby la one of the most vicious ed from his sleep while 111 with e. cold, he was taken down the crude, rickety ladder to his death. The Eobles child spent three torturous weeks In a "grave-house" In the Arizona, desert, chained to an underground, nar row box. Taken from school In Harwlchport, Mass.. by Kenneth Buck in May of 1933, Peggy McMath was led to an automobile, bound, gaged and blindfolded and thrown Into & cranberry shack. She waa released two days later, after a ransom of C6O.O0O was paid. It surely Indicates Mr. Roosevelt has more problems on his hands than those which are evident on the sur face. There will be no opportunity for a cruise this summer, if the new deal la to be made the active, living, breathing force It once was. The best national Democratic au thorities are now saying that Governor-General Frank Murphy will re turn from the Philippines and run for governor of Michigan next year. Why he would do it, no one knows. He has probably the best Job in government. It paye $18,000 a year and carries two castles and two yachts. Incidentally, the rumors that At torney General Cummlngs might take the post are unfounded. He won't. Commerce Secretary Roper Is sup posed to have picked a new assist ant secretary already, although there Is no vacancy. The new one Is sup posed to be J. Monroe Johnson of North Carolina, prominent Legion naire. The fact Is that, at the time the choice was made a few days ago, Roper hoped to get rid of one of his assistant secretaries, but did not know how. A year ago when Prof. Cameron Marshall, dean of music at Willam mette university, presented a group of his students in concert before a Medford audience, he conceived the plan of spending his vacation here this summer. As one of his hobbles is fishing, he expects to reduce the number of the finny tribe In the lakes and streams nearby and inci dentally enjoy the wonderful climate. Rev. Joseph Knotts. pastor of the First Methodist church, haa made ar rangements with Prof. Marshall for the conducting of a choir school, and also presentation of a cantata the latter part of July. Prof. Marshall is expected to arrive tomorrow. He will be accompanied by Burtia Preston, protege, a young man of exceptional musical ability. They will meet with the choir and with any wishing to take vooal les sons, in a special meeting at the First Methodist church tomorrow evening at 7:30. MARKET FOR BUTTER HOLDS STEADY TONE PORTLAND.

The present NRA expires Sunday night unless the legislation Is enact ed before that time. In the Benate. the Long speech making, story telling and recipe giv ing ended finally at 4 a. m.. having lasted since shortly after noon yester day. The Lou 1 stan an was succeeded by Senator Schall (R., Mvnn.). but the blind senator confined himself to written speech which was read by the clerk. This took about an hour. Then Senator McCarrln (D., Nev.) who had been aiding Long throughout the night with questions and In negotiations with leaders took the floor but did not talk long. No One Else To Talk When he finished there was no one else to talk and the senate rushed rapidly to the final vote. Long continued to sit in the cham ber chatting with senators while Schall and McCarrln. had the floor. He was shouting for the floor when the resolution finally was voted on but did not get recognition before the "ayes" and "noes" began sound ing. Minutes before, the senate had re jected the Gore amendment to re quire senate confirmation of all presidential appointees to positions paying over $4,000 a year. That pro posal was the vehicle for Long's fruit less filibuster. Relieved that the task was behind, the senate adjourned at 6:31 a. m., until Friday. Then It will debate the social security bill. New Pmo Break puv The big break had come shortly before 4 a. m., when Long finally gave up, broken by his long discourse that covered everything from the constitution to the way to steal a guinea hen's egg. He waa forced down before a group of new democratic senators who served notice they were out to break hla 'control" of the sen ate. In Its final shape, the NRA resolu tion would continue the recovery ad ministration in ghost-like form, without codes, but with authority for voluntary agreements among busi ness men dealing only with collective bargaining, minimum wages, maxl-1 mum hours, abolition of child labor i and prohibition of trade practices al- J ready outlawed by statute.

Snatch Ye Poet's Cornei Ira Coffman and His Son . (By Fred M. Law) Now Ira Coffman and hla son Dug out boulders, one by one; Pumped the water from the sump; Fired the boulders o'er the dump. Now Ira Coffman did proclaim A few strange worda In satin's name The language used waa not so bad, But plenty rough for the time he had. "If all the boulders on the bar Were where I'd like, they'd be so far That' with shovel, pick and pan We'd have Just gravel at command. "We'd take our sluice box, rlffies, too; Just fire It In and hook It through. We'd pan our riffles up every night. And get yellow muck called gold so bright." Next morning at the rise of sun, Another hard day'a work began. That night rain soaked deep the ground, And other boulders tumbled down. One boulder was so large and tall It seemed the daddy of them all. They said, "We'll take him out. all right; We'll blow him up with dynamite!" So Ira and his son did go To purchase Just a ton or two Of highly explosive dynamite, To blow that boulder out of sight. They dug a deep hole In the grouud. And placed the powder 'round and 'round. They lit 100 feet of fuse. And down the canyon went four shoes. For two long days stayed out of sight. For it rained boulders day and night. Myl What a noise that shot did. make; It caused the earth and hills to shake. The moon looked down with a silly grin When a boulder struck htm on the chin. The boulder went so far. 6o far. They lost the gold and blew up . the bar. I Control by Switches If wall brackets are controlled by switches, many unnecessary steps, taken to turn them on and off. are saved.
