The Crater Lake Incident
A OCORDIN'G to a dispatch to the Portland Journal, Director
C'nmmcrer of the national park service, "has expressed re
gret to Senator McNary that a party of Georgia school teachers
were turned back at Crater Lake park because of rules concern
ing exclusive privileges for sight seeing busses" and declares
"this incident will not be repeated."
This is good news. It should NOT be repeated.
No incident at the park in recent years, has called forth such
universal condemnation from the press of the state, as this need
less discourtesy to a large party of visitors from the south,
newspapers from Portland to Ashland and from Astoria to the
Snake river vigorously deploring such action.
'T'lIE consensus of press opinion was simply this: whatever the
rules and regulations of the park regarding exclusive priv
ileges to sight seeing busses, when any party of sightseers arrive
at a park entrance, having travelled thousands of miles and
at great expense to see Oregon's great national wonder, had
themselves done nothing to merit exclusion, had made the trip
in entire good faith, they should not be made the innocent
victims of BAD faith on the part of their managers or of park
red tape, the rules and regulations should be interpreted with
sufficient liberality and good sense, to allow such visitors to
SEE what they had come to see, and to go on their way rejoicing.
'T'llAT this is essentially the, view of Supt. David H. Canficld
of Crater Lake park is indicated by his letter to R. AV.
Sawyer, editor of the Bend Bulletin explaining the incident,
which was released to the state press yesterday.
For, states Mr. Canficld, only one third of the party from
Georgia, was excluded from the lake. The other two-thirds were
admitted, members of the same party, travelling the same way,
under the same management "SPECIAL CONSIDERATION
being given" as Mr. Canficld explains "in view of the fact the
occupants were innocent victims, and no charge whatever was
made as individuals."
TPIIIS is as it should be. The
t.lin nnnnln nre tha nrnnortv
administered at. all times, with
aim in view, courteous and efficient service TO the people.
That this is the view of the national park service no one
questions. TJiat it is the policy of the present administration
of Crater Lake park, no one denies, but it is also undeniable
that this turning back of the Georgia party, could only lead, to
exactly a contrary interpretation.
"T'lIE regrettable feature is that the "special consideration"
"shown two-thirds of the party, admitting them to the park,
was not shown the "one third" or if it was shown them, that
the excursion managers, refused to accept one day, what they
agreed to accept the following two.
The fact remains that over one hundred, citizens of this
country, who had travelled thousands of miles to see Crater
Lake, were turned back, and forced to continue their journey
southward, without being extended the privileges they had been
granted at Yellowstone, and GlHcier national park, and the other
members of their party WERE granted at Crater Lake.
A S we see it, it makes no difference whether these visitors
were all bona fide school teachers or not; whether they all
came from Georgia or some other state; whether they rode in
ono typo of motor bus or another, operated for profit, or only
for educational enlightenment ; whether tho Southwestern Teach
ers college is really a college, or only a promoters junket on
wheels, the fact remains the members of this first excursion
Avere PEOPLE citizens of the
responsible for tho technical errors of their managers, carried
neither sawed-off shotguns nor were victims of the bubonic
plague and under such circumstances should have been extend
ed the same courtesies that were
ers in the next two busses, 111 HOl'RS LATER ! .
IF precisely the SAME courtesies WERE extended, and were
rejected in a fit of pique, or because the official in charge
wished to make the play of outraged innocence, then certainly
all the fault for this unfortunate
the man in charge of this particular party aud no one else.
We hope very much this will
in such event, we feel that in some way the members of this
No. 1 party should he duly informed of the fact, so when they
ispersc to their various homes,
and experience homicidal impulses,
Lake are mentioned.
"UR only interest is in Crater Lake, its development,
'k' growth and increasing POPULARITY". We realize there
must be rules and regulations; that fighting against undesirable
commercialism and exploitation of the parks, is necessary and
desirable. But we do maintain when any body of citizens of
this country wish to sec Crater Lake, travel thousands of miles
and pay out their good money to do so, SOME WAY should be
found to accommodate them and

That is neither good sense nor

see that the incident of a week ago will never be repeated.

GOOD-BYE TO THE DEFICIENT SMOOTH DIET
'I could find diets for almost every
disease." wrote Dr. Alvarez, "but au
torltles did not always agree, and I
could seldom
ieam why they
approved of one
food and forbade
another. Some
times patient
would show me
several diet slips
given him by aa
many physicians,
and aa I read the
widely different
1 n a t r u ctlons I
wondered how he
still could retain
confidence In the
profession. In my perplexity I be
gan to examine hundred of stools
to see for myself what substances
commonly escaped digestion, and I
found that many of the patients who
were complaining of flatuWince and
abdominal discomfort were bringing
stools full of coarse, undigested ma
terial consisting mainly of cellulose
vegetable fiber) ..."
And so the so-called bland or
smooth diet came Into popularity
though as Dr. Alvarez remarks, the
virtues of a, smooth diet had been
known In the past to many phy
sicians. Including Hlppokrates. The
smooth diet excludes all foods with
fibre, skins, seeds or gristle, salads
with celery, cucumbers and pineap
ple, many of the green vegetables,
raisins, berries, Jams containing seeds,
nuts, many raw fruits, beans, cab
bage, onions, peppers, melons, cu
cumbers, peanuts, sugar, candy, syr
ups, coarse breakfast foods, shredded
wheat, bran, whole wheat bread, pork,
smoked fish. Permitted Items are
orange ''juice or grapefruit without
the fiber In compartment, coffee,
chocolate, cocoa or tea, egs with
bacon or ham. white bread, toast,
zwlebach with butter, smooth mush
auch as cornmeal, cream of wheat,
farina, rolled oats, broths, bouillon,
cream soups, chowder, purees, meat,
fish, chicken, eggs, oysters, crab and
lobster if you know shellfish agree,
bread and butter, hot biscuit If small
and crusty, baked, mashed, hashed
brown or French fried potatoes, rice,
sweet potatoes, hominy .stewed strain
ed tomates thickened with cracker or
bread crumbs, asparagus tips, beets,
turnips, creamed spinach, noodles,
macaroni, spakhettl. No salad. Cus
tard. Ice cream, stewed or canned
fruits, Jello, plan cake, cottage cheese,
filling of apple, peach or lemon j
cream pie may be eaten. I
Such a diet has Its value In the
control of certain acute or passing
troubles, but should not be followed
Indefinitely or for a prolonged time,
for it does not provide adequate vita- !
mins. If It Is necessary to adhere
to the smooth diet for a considerable
time, certainly the diet should be
supplemented by a regular daily ra
tion of all the essential vitamin in
some form suitable for the condition

prescribed, for we know that vitamin

Alvarez's observations. Of course
there Is always considerable "coarse,
undigested material" in the residue

flatulence or abdominal discomfort
to it. I believe the peculiar prejudice
of Dr. Alvarez and many other ex

of such natural foods as wheat, par
ticularly the bran of wheat. Is based
on flimsy morbid conjecture. Prob
ably most people who try to avoid
bran would be greatly benefitted )f

avoid giving any emetic or physic.
Rather, feed the child plenty of veg

fine and not too well cooked. Or
plenty of banana, or even mashed
potato. The purpose of this Is to
provide a mass of soft residue to
surround the foreign object and
make Its passage easy.

Comment

By FRANK JENKINS
UTILATION Murder Suspect
Believed Suicide," a headline
tells us. A note received by the Chi
cago police embodies that Idea.
What a pity all our murderers can't
follow that plan. It would save a lot
of grief and an amazing amount of
money.
SPEAKING of money alone, if the
cost of all the murder trials In
all the states of the Union In only a
single year were aasembled Into one
sum. It is probable that the size of
this sum would amaze us.
IP the cost of all the police and all
the courts In all the cities and
states of the Union were assembled
Into one sum, the size of that sum
would STAGGER US.
Crime Is exceedingly expensive. And
we have to bear the high cost of
crime because people persist In doing
things they shouldn't do.
IF people Just wouldn't do the
.things they shouldn't do, what a
quiet and simple and peaceful world
this would be.
And what a dull one, doubtless!
A N OTHER headline:
Midget
"Mo
Money Plans Tabled.','
The house coinage committee sits
on the administration's plan to put
out half-cent and tenth-of-a-cent
coins.
Well, that's one sensible thing con
gressmen have done In the past year
or so. Who wants to be cluttered
with half-cent and tenth-of-a-cent
coins when there Isn't even anything
in these days that can be bought
with a cent?
WHY does the administration want
to put out these fool coins, does
someone ask?
The answer must be that It's an
other experiment that nobody had
thought of before. !
CTTLL another headline meets the
eye: "Wiley Post and Wife Start
for Russia."
After they get there, they can start
back and probably will pretty short
ly. The pity of it Is that a lot of
cranks we could well spare who pro
fess to yearn to live In a place where
the government Is everything and the 1
Individual nothing don't go to Rus
sia and NEVER come back.
If they feel as they CLAIM to feel,
they would be a lot happier In Rus

be a lot happier without them.
GETTING nearer home, Grants

majority a plan to accept a grant

This writer, who doesn't live In

All the usual reasons are being
mentioned for the current obduracy
of the house. They range upward
from the low hints by lobby commit
teemen that house members were
bought.
An old-ttme lobbyist (not connect
ed with the utilities) has offered a
logical reason. He won considerable
money betting 1 to 3 that the house
would not change. His long experi
ence in handling state legislatures
proved to him that legislators look on
a changed vote as a confession of
error which must be avoided at all
costs. A wrong 6tand Is easier to de
fend politically than a public admis
sion of a mistake.
Certain prominent' personages in
terested tn inaugurating a coalition
political movement against President
Roosevelt are supposed to hav
sounded out General Johnson lately
They thought he might be interested
in leading It. He declined. His asso
ciates say his main reason was that
he Is a democrat who still cheers
occasionally for F. D. R., although
differing about many new deal poli
cies. Also, he suspects the move may
prove to be impractical politically.
Moat republicans here would like

democratic ticket enter the field next

national convention.
General Farley right-handers have
already passed out some private un
official assurances that the democra
tic convention will be held next year
at Atlantic City. The mam reason Is
the seashore resort is raising some big
money to get it. Also, the democratic
bosses figure that they can afford to
disregard the usual geographical re
quirements. They expect to control
the convention completely, no matter
where It is held.
Republicans are talking about go
ing to San Francisco, but probably
won't. For one thing, tt Is too close
to Palo Alto. For another, they need
a midwest background.
An official report protesting aca:nst i
the propaganda activities of the third '
international congress at Moscow was
prepared Inside the stat department !
last .week, but not announced. The :
reason It was suppressed was that a
ranking official thought there was
considerable doubt whether the pro
test was Justified.
American communist speakers at '.
the congress talked about fomenting !
Pacific coast dock strike of "unpre-
cedeited scope" next fall. The cues
tion here -vs whether this was a
violation of Moscow's prom; to
indulge in domestic ;rcpaaad.
