Jlereabouts the old. policy of two i committees for every blade of grass I has been abandoned, and, If this keeps up, a dodo will have to be appointed to find a committee. The Portland police report they were fooled by bomblsts, who posted a reward for their own capture. This la on a par with singing America." and cheering the arrival cf the "Mayflower." while burglar iously throwing an ax through the CourthoubC window. Considerable sympathy Is expressed for Ethiopia, In the event of a war with Italy. The Ethiopian soldier goes forth to battle wcHrlug black, ecraggly whiskers. Besides the whis kers, he Is spurred on to do a good job of fighting, by a fanatlcnl ueai for trouncing litilian forces, on their home grounds. The snmo solicitude was recently expressed lor Mr. James J. Braddock, before he cuffed the ears of Mr. Max User. Citizens in clined to weep for the Ethiopians, have forgotten what the Austrian would have done to the Italians, but for the intervention of Pro vidence, In the shape of a flood. In the Po river, towards the end oi the Great War. At the time the Austrian! were three Jumps from Venice. Furthermore, unlike Austria, Ethiopia has not been decisively de feated by other nations, before Italy courageously declares war. It was 10.7 In Portland Satur day, and correspondingly het in a number of Willamette vttlley points, that for many moons have glee fully recorded, In their biggent nna blackest type, the altitude of Old 8ol In this region.

This la heartily endorsed by the Humdingers, Inc.. who feci like cheering, the retributive act ol the weather. e HOW TO hr.Kl tOOL This la the season when we en dure some days that make us want to take off our flesh and sit In our bones. Unlike little babies, we hate to wear something next to our ekma when we go in public. It that seems heavy, think back to the time when statesmen wore silk hath and frock coats and women long skirts and steel corsets In August. Trying to keep cool is frequently the best way to feel hot, and the best ay to keep cool la to keep your mind occupied with other things than the heat. For the young and the well, keeping the pores open with exercise and then a dip at the end of the day in anything from a swimming hole to a tun remains the unbeaten prescription. (Crossley, Tex..

MEMBER Where All Should Help TIE annual membership campaign for the Jackson County Chamber of Commerce will open tomorrow. ' An intensive "drive" of this type should be unnecessary. Membership in a chamber of commerce such as Jackson county has now, should be sought by all who can afford a moderate contribution to the constructive development of this area. Unfortunately, financial support from many who benefit most from the chamber of commerce program has been lacking. It has been to the credit of this county organization that it has "carried on" despite restricted income by cutting all expenses to the bone. Efficient operation has been maintained only through rigid economy and the and effort on the part of a public spirited few. It is a gratifying fact that the Jackson County Chamber of Commerce has achieved state-wide tion. Among many outstanding the establishment of the C'CC improvement of marketing conditions in this county; the encour agement of tourist travel. "J 10W are chamber of commerce funds spent?" The salaried positions are confined to an able manager who acts as coordinator for the diversified committees of the or ganization, and his two assistants who handle the details of his office. There are other incidental expenses for the maintenance of a central office and information headquarters light, heat, etc. Necessary traveling expenses, advertising and publicity material, postage and minor items make up the conservative budget. Sound common sense and good business judgment keep costs to a minimum. T'lIORE who guide the affairs are not operating on a hit program is not one of dreamers or visionaries. It is practical, comprehensive, and if carried to a successful conclusion will directly or indirectly benefit every resident of this area. This program calls for crop and market surveys for the ultimate benefit of large and small commodity growers; irrigation de velopment has not been overlooked; industrial and mineral oper ations are given considerable tant tourist crop will be nourished through well directed adver tising and the improvement of recreation areas. Tux legislation, road improvement, aviation and scores of oilier matters will receive intelligent consideration. Most important of all, efforts will be continued toward the goal of a unified county ... all communities cemented together in a brotherhood of common purpose the development of a greater southern Oregon! A LIj of which cannot be accomplished without money. Presi- dent Ben Harder and the chamber of commerce board of directors have pointed out, in no uncertain terms, that support will be necessary if their excellent and constructive program is to be carried out. A practical, efficient, business-like organisa tion such as the chamber has become under the direction of these men and the able management of A. II. Banwell, cannot operate without funds. It's very life is dependent upon the public response to this call for new members and additional funds, made at this time. II. G. G. NEW YORK DAY BY DAY By'O. O. Mclntyrc NEW YORK. July 15.

State Secretary Hull called In Italian Ambassador Rosso on Ethio pia because the peace societies squawked long and loud over Hull's note to the Ethiopian emperor. They snld he waa condoning Italian ag gression and he had to do a little something to quiet them. This does not mean that Mr. Hull Intends to play peacemaker In that affair. Personally he haa the same feeling that a lot of other Amer icans share regarding the Impract icability of playing peacemaker to the world. It may have appeared that sen ator Holt and Representative Lewis threw down the advice of Demo cratic publicity man, Charles Mlch elson. by appearing at the Univer sity of Vlrgnta Institute of public affairs. The fact is they followed it. They failed to appear at the spots designated for them on the program with American Liberty League speakers. Instead, they wait ed a few days until the league speakers had gone and then they appeared with their own hurrahs for the new deal. Mr. Roosevelt ts going out to ans wer these rumors about his health in the same way he did during his second campaign for governor in New York. At that time, whispers were being spread that he should not be re-elected because the strain would kill him. He hopped Into an automobile and made a three weeks tour of the state. The trip waa so strenuous that his retinue waa fag ged after the first week. News men were worn out trying to keep up with him. Near the end they began writing stories about his superior physical strength. . That la exactly the way his forth coming presidential trip is being planned. The season for hot weather stories now is on in full blast. The latest myth to gain national circulation by word of mouth Is that Presi dent Roosevelt made an Inside deal with the supreme court to have the NRA held unconstitutional eo that he could get out of it.
