PAGE TWELVE MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUTE, MEDFORD, OREGON, THURSDAY, AUGUST 22, 1933. TOY SAYS LONDON AND PARIS DIFFER AS DAY AND NIGHT Editor's note: ThU Is the third of sarin of letters written lor the Mull Tribune by C. J. Toy. Medford resi dent, now on a tour of Europe: By C. J. Toy After all, there la no earthly rea mnn wlnT It should not be ao. but the cameo dletlnctneaa with which Paris and Umdon reflect the contradictory personalities of each nation Is at flrat something of a shock. London is gray, muted, reserved and cold. Paris by contrast. Is gay, colorful, Tl ractoua and spectacular. It Isn't necessary to dig deep to see the difference either. It flares on every aide. Buildings, shops, atreets. taxis, women, oafes: every facet of French personality mlrrore a gay ab-A-nt.irm with life, while England plods seriously along, taking things with a serious frown ana a ansae 01 the head. The cafes, for example. Paris' thou sands are booming day and night, the drinking is done in the open air at tables strewn over the sidewalks, and drinks of every conceivable color and content litter the tables. London's drinking Is deacreetly enjoyed behind buttered windows and closed doors, confined almost exclusively to beer, ale. and the proverbial whiskey soda, and open hours are rigidly limited from nine to two-thirty In the day and from five thirty to ten at night Bhopa In Parte are gay affairs, chro mium plated, mirrors, and black mar ble, while the famous shops of Lon don are quietly hidden behind wea thered fronts erected generations aro. London's ancient taxis creep sedately along, muted and unobtrusive, while the up to the minute streamlined Paris cabs streak around, tooting and blowing every step of the way. A fen der clash between Pari cabs la a ahrleklng, flst-wavlng melee, whllo In London It's conducted along the lines of a gentlemanly debate followed by mutual apologies, and a hand ahake. Awl so It goes. French temperament ajld Engliah temperament, one bubbly end exclt,ble, the other steady and eonaerratlre. Bven after twenty years, evidences wt the Great War can be seen every where In Parts. Crippled men walk wary district, and twelve seats on very subway car are designated by algna aa being reserved for the wounded of the war. Memories are eertalr.ly not allowed to lag. and the tomb of the unknown soldier under the Aro de Trlomphe la alwaya bank ed high with fresh wreaths. Americans traveling In France are advised to either break the cigarette habit, or cultivate a taste for corn allk tobacco. French cigarettes are choking, throat parching concoctions, and the popular American brands sell for forty three cent a package. To baccos, by the way, are sold only In shops licensed exclusively to the wld. ows of French soldiers killed In the war. And dont start any continued torlea In the Saturday Evening Post before coming to France. An Issue seta you back sixty five cents. Owo llne la a problem too. and almost aa expensive aa wine. It sells for fifty awnta a gallon. NONE CAN BEAT F. R. EXCEPT HIMSELF IS : VIEW EMPORIA SAGE "UMPORIA. Knit., Ail. 32. (AP WllUm AHfn Whit. Etpporla editor and Republican leader, believes no one can beat Roosevelt, but Rooae Telt himself. Any part White mlRht take In the it3 campaign lan't known by him self. "I would not predict 30 minutes ahead what I will do," said the Em poria editor. "Too many things can happen to change the situation." Hoover's recent challenge to the new deal and Senator Joe Robinson's reply did not alarm White, who aald: "Thar la no need to agonise. A few fundamental tru'-Hs In this situation stand out clear and un contro verted. "First, you can't elect a president on the e lectin, 'save the constitu tion,' unless you tell the people Just exactly what kind of an eco nomic program you Intend to estab lish when you save the constitu tion. "Second, no one can beat Roose velt but Roosevelt hlmaelf. And he Is working diligently on the Job. "Third, Hoover will remain Impos sible or become inevitable by the run of the cards and not by any thing that Hoover can say or his Re publican enemies can do. Mightier forcea are at work on this situation than csn be guided by the hands ot men." Grazing Act Waits Presidential Pen WASHINGTON. Aug. 22.
