R. in California AS everyone knowg Charles Evan Hughes wag defeated for the presidency, by California. Had Mr. Hughes never vis ited our neighboring atate he, instead of Woodrow Wiluon would undoubtedly have been. America's war president Or, when the Republican candidate crossed the Siskiyous, had he refused to take sides in the bitter conflict then raging between the Hiram Johnson and the Crocker factions, he prob ably would have been victorious, for it was his alleged snub of Hiram, that placed California in the Democratic column the following JCovember. However it was a tough spot for a forthright gentleman like New York's former governor, who was not particularly adroit in the game of practical politics, and felt he had to choose one side or the other. As the anti-Johnson leaders got to him first, boarding his train at Dunsmuir, he went in their direc tion, and felt he couldn't consistently go in Hiram's direction, when that luncheon invitation came along a little later. a a a a WITH this historical contretemps in mind, so vital in the political destiny of this country, it is doubly interesting to observe President Roosevelt's entrance into California, and note how he handles a situation, so similar to the one which proved so disastrous for the present chief justice and the Republican party. Change a few names and the entrance point from the north ern to the southern boundary of California, and the two dilem mas are practically IDENTICAL I THERE is today a split in the Democratic party of California, facing President Roosevelt, strikingly similar to the Repub lican split in 1911. As Hiram Johnson was the cause of the trouble then, Upton Sinclair is the cause of the trouble now. As Crocker was the leader of the Republican regulars then, Senator McAdoo is the leader of the Democratic regulars now. But for that motor accident which befell the junior senator from California, no doubt McAdoo and his lieutenants would he meeting the Roosevelt party at the southern border, as the Crocker forces met Mr. Hughes over 20 years ago, and with precisely the same intention, to gain the sympathy and support of the party leader. It has been rumored a secret meeting between President Roosvclt and Upton Sinclair, has been arranged for some point in the California desert before the presidential special arrives in Los Angeles. This may or may not be true. But it sounds plausible. THIS much can be accepted as certain. The somewhat crude "honer" which vraa resnonRihle for the Huehes disaster, will not be repeated by the present occupant of the White House. Think what we will of Franklin D. Roosevelt, friends and foes 8re agreed on one thing he is the smartest politician, to occupy the White House, since the redoubtable T. R. wielded the big stick and spoke softly, from the hill on the hanks of the Potomac, If, it is humanly possible to please the Sinclair faction, which practically controls the California democratic machine, without alienating the McAdoo faction, this will be done. But just HOW will F. D. R. do itt This is what will be so well worth watching and KNOWING. What subtlety, finesse and skillful maneuvering will be employ ed, to accomplish what Justice Hughes failed to accomplish, and what on the face of things Bppears so difficult in fact impossi bleto accomplish. WILL history repeat itself and California prove to be the Roosevelt Waterloo slant Or will a little thine like a party civil war, and a fight to be taken with a smile and in mindt The political historian will certainly have out his spy-glasses and note book as President Franklin D. Roosevelt proceeds thru the "bad lands" of southern California and until he finally embarks for that, fishing trip along the const of Mexico! Capital Goods Recovery POR two years each minor boomlet in the slow uptrend of busi- ness hss found the industries producing durable or "capi tal" goods lagging behind. Gcnernlly it was held that the great est single drag on a sustained recovery move was this section of industry. During the last four months steel production hns in poration of Wall Street, New York City. Although a late starter, the production of durable goods is now credited with having contributed more to the general im provement in business since May of this year than any other indntsry. During the last four months steel production has in creased sharply while the output of pig-iron has shown fair contra-seasonal gains. Activity in the lumber industry hns been on an upward trend with the rise in building to its highest level in almost four years. The advances made in machine tool manu facture, a direct gauge of enpitnl goods activity, are illustrated by the volume of business at the recent Machine Tool Exposition at which sales totalling $5,000,000 were made in a ten-day period. Orders received for future delivery were reported at between forty and fifty million. The tardy but. welcome upturn in the capital goods industries is variously interpreted by business analysts. Some hold that it is attributable largely to natural recovery forces. Others see the federal works program as the medium that set the ball rolling. The real answer, as is usually the case, probably lies between the two extreme points of view. A normal accompaniment of revival in durable goods is a large volume of security underwriting to finance the purchase of such goods. While the amount of new financing is still relatively small, the volume of underwriting is at the highest level aince 19.11. For the first eight months of this year, the monthly average has been a shade over $1 (55,000,000. Refunding issues made up the greatest portion of this figure, being shout 85 of the total.

A BOY'S" LIFT IS N One of those golden aunts, Ood bless 'em. flies thU appeal: "In our family there are two boyi, son of my it iter who pawed on a few years ago.

When evening cornea they must be tired, and their grand parents feel that they ought to spend most of their evenings at home 'rest ing and going to bed at 9 o'clock." If you regard a boy as a purely physical organization, that Is quite correct. Boys need nine hour of sleep every night when they are growing, especially when they play or work hard. But there la more to a real boy than his physiological entity. Go on with your recital.

"Grandparents Insist 9 o'clock la proper bedtime for growing boys. Ac tually our boys average eight hours sleep. Do you consider it necessary for them to have more sleep?

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Hard Workers Need Salt Please give your comment on the statement of thla country doctor. X gathered from your articles that moat people take too much salt. (O. E. O.) Answer. The young country doctor is unnamed in the newspaper Item which quotes him as saying men who work hard on farms In summer often have cramps In their legs at night, and they should eat more salt, as they sweat most of the aalt out. I don't know about the leg cramps our readers could soon set us right about that but I think the doctor la right about the advisability of taking extra salt when one does much sweating. Workers exposed to extreme heat find that they stand It better and avoid heat cramps when they make It a regular practice to take a little salt wUh every drink of water. Indeed,, dispensing machines set up alongside the drinking font provide tablets containing five or ten grains of salt for this excellent purpose. What. No Swimming? I was operated on two years ago for mastoid and now mother thinks It is dangerous for me to go In swim ming. (Miriam). Answer. Why not ask your doctor about It, Miriam? Perhaps he will tell you how to place soft rubber or wool In your ears to prevent entrance of water, and how to plug the nasal chambers against entrance of water, and how to breathe entirety through your open mouth while you are in swimming.

Comment on the Day's News By FBANK JENKINS A TRAVELER who has Just re turned from Meileo Citj spoke ths other day before a South.rn Oregon service club at whlcb this writer wss fortunate enough to be present. Next to traveling oneself, the best thing la to listen to someone who has traveled. Since the daya of Marco Polo, we've all liked to listen to stories sbout the other fellow's country. THE peso Is theMexlcan dollar. Its value la based on silver, not gold, which Is ths baals of our dollsr's value. The value of the peso, the trav eler told his hearers, fluctuates widely snd rapidly, running all the way from 38 to 96 cents American during the relatively short time he waa In Mexico. That Is to ssy, what your week's wages will buy depends entirely on the value of the peso, which In turn depsnds on what people gen erally think the peso Is worth from day to day. (If we're wise n this country, we'll stick to hard dollars, which sre worth the same one dsy aa another, and let Mexico and other countries have the rubber dollars) THE Mexican peon, ha related, lives and keeps his family on the equivalent of some eight or nine American dollara per YEAR. Unbelievable? Not at all If you've ever been in Mexico and have seen the scale on which the Mexican peon and his family live. It wouldn't be called living In this country. PAUSE here for a moment and consider this PACT: Mexico, from the stsndpolnt ot natural resources, is aa rich aa the United states. It haa pleasant ell mats, productive soil, vsst mineral deposits snd trsckless forests. The difference lies In the SYSTEM under which its people live. THIS writer, who Is admittedly old-fashioned and finds It hard to believe that everybody can he made rich by passing a law or mak ing a apeech, holding to the ancient notion that what we get we must work for, vsstly prefers the Amer lcsn system to the Mexican eys tem, which la based largely on the time-honored method of promising everything and delivering nothing. That la the demagogue's wsy. EVERYWHERE. This American system of ours hss brought us the highest average standard of lltlng on earth. Lets keep It regerdless of what the brain trusters may say of It. ANOTHER interesting statement: "As the train stopa In Mex ican towns snd cities, the Amerlcsn tourists on bosrd sre simply flooded with things for ssle. It la to be noticed that as the train atops the asking prices are MUCH HIGHER than Just before It Is due to stsrt." Humsn nature, you see, Is the same In Mexico aa elsewhere. It is humsn nsture for the buyer to ask as he thinks he MAY get and to take what he flnda he CAN get. MEXICO, as "already atated here, Is NATURALLY as rich aa the United States, with productive soil, pleasant climate, vast mlnersl re sources and huge forests. It is only the SYSTEM thst keeps the bulk of Mexico's populstlon povsrty strlcken and hopeless. Our system Is a better one than theirs. Thst Is the whole story. It's reslly a pity that more peo ple can't go to Mexico and see whst Is there to be seen. If more of us could go down there snd use our eyes and our common sense, the demsRogues snd the crsckpots and the peddlers of tommyrot on this side of the line might not get ss fsr ss they do.

A aearching traveler will find no substantial evidence anywhere of the political importance of wealth-sharing or Coughlln organizations. Un doubtedly they exist, but they are not Important enough to be heard or noticed. For Instance, none of the varlou local political expert In the midwest knowa any person associat ed with Long or Coughlln In hla area, or of any Important activity by Lone men or Cough Unite. The size of the Long following in Salt Lake City may be nvaaured by the fact that 400 person appeared at memorial servlcea for him. It was the flrat time they ehowed themselves. Local observers were astounded that there were so many. The force which the moat Import ant pollticoa now fear ia the Town send group. Apparently the Town aendJtaa are still going nearly aa strong as ever since the adoption of the New Deal social security program carrying old age pensions and unem ployment Insurance. A senator of a Rocky Mountain state reported that he received 14.000 let tera from Townsendltes In hla atate recently. Kansans also are wondering sbout the extent of the movement there, especially in view of the fact that 150.000 persons wrote In the name of the goat-gland Dr. Brlnkley on the ballot there several year ago. Authorities here know the move ment la extensive because numerous meetings are being held, but precise estimating Is lmpeaslble. Such strength cannot be measured by any of the usual political barometers. The real booming industry of thla section has received no government al aid. It Is the tourist business. Au thorities here agree that thl year It equaled the 1928-29 record In size, if not in spending. All It needs Is a little promotion to set a new record next year. A national publicity campaign ta under consid eration. You will undoubtedly hear a great deal about this garden spot In the mountain desert, the glamor of the Mormon temple and America's great dead sea, the receding Sale lake, now about 22 per cent salty. It rates all the publicity It can get. A wise administration of the Utah sales tax has saved this state from the personal revolts noticeable else where. The law has been changed so that no sale below 33 cent la taxed and no token have been Issued by the state. Checks have been made by the atste administration. Indicating that the tax la being paid willingly and the law observed. Other atatee will do this. One trouble with the country, from Washington west, la that business men are reluctant to say how good their business Is. It la still popular to be peslmltlc. Apparently no one want anyone else to think he la making any money.
