WITH the close of the Community Chest drive, Mr. 3f, with head bloodless and unbowed, . maintains his life long record, unimpaired. Jfr. X is a man of property, and always has been. But he has never given a dime to the Community Chest and doesn't, in tend to. It has been Mr. X'& uudeviating policy to get, not to give. To the pleas of helping those less fortunate than himself, he turns a deaf ear.- Why should he help those less thrifty and competent than he! This is a world of the SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST I Mr. X has survived. If Mr. T and Mrs. T and all the little T's haven't,-well, that's just too bad for the T family. Mr. X has always looked out for himself. Why shouldn't, all the other members of the human alphabet, be able to do the same? . f UEMBER OF UNITED PRESS UBMDKR OF AUDIT RURBAU OK CIRCULATIONS A4v.rtl.tns R.pr.B.nt.ttv.. M. C.

ButlShet ' Smart yes, from his own standpoint, from the standpoint of getting things and keeping them,' and giving nothing away, But is he smart in a larger and more realistic sense! Of course he isn't from the standpoint of what really makes life worth while. He misses the happiness that lies in helping others, and he also misses the respect, affection, the high regard of his neighbors and his fellow men. He thinks he can beat the game by paying his bills promptly and minding his own busi ness. Put he can't. Sooner or Inter he is pegged in his com munity where he belongs. So he misses something that is worth more than the property he has accumulated, and something that no amount of money can buy. Hut he can't see it. Therefore it is not that phase of the matter, we attend to discuss. More over all that sort of thing Mr. X would dismiss, as a lot of hocus poeus, and sentimental nonsense anyway. Ho is not only hard hearted but hard headed, and if you would make any pro gress with him you will have to talk SENSE 1 So far the sake of argument, let's brush all, of Mr. X's imponderables, out of the picture, and meet the issue with Mr. X on his own ground. ' Let's talk the language of the cash register, of profit and loss, of dollars and cents, the only language Mr. X can under stand. '. Whereupon, to-wit and et cetera: I . a a . . TiR. X as noted above is a man of property. His material well being depends upon the value, the earning power of that property. Well let's adopt his theory of the survival of the fittest and carry it on to its logical conclusion. HPHE Community Chest is abandoned. All charity, private and public, is abandoned. From now on it's dog eat dog, each for himself and the devil take the hindmost. We have the world Mr. X delights in. OK. Now what happens! Obviously in certain quarters, there will be people without food or shelter j without care and proper medical attention; there will not be one but 'many families faced with death and starvation. What will those families do! What will the head of a family who can't get work, do when he sees his wife and children, get ting weaker and weaker, through no fault of thcir's and no fault of his; plead as he will there is no helping hand to aid them! ink In England the old controversy be tween advocates of sugar la the diet and opponents of sweets has been r . t 1 v e d . recently. A Doctor A. C. Jordan, radiolo gist, who has written, much on 'Intestinal stasis' maintain that sweets . are' not sufficiently mas ticated by cbll dren. and are therefore not di gested by the enzymes in the aellva, and they reach the Intestine Incompletely digested and there undergo putrefaction. Putrefac tion gives rise to various poisonous products which, this radiologist In. auu, are absorbed Into tha blood and impair the natural resistance of the entire system, or words to that effect. Radiologist Jordan's view Is op posed by Biochemist Sydney W. Cole of University of Cambridge, who points out that cane sugar Is not di gestible by salivary enzymes, and hence nothing would be gained by prolonged mastication of thta food. X-ray studies have shown, too, that sugar passes through the stomach quickly. Physiologists know that cane sugar Is rapidly converted Into dext rose or glucose In which form It Is utilized In the body. The amount of sugar (glucose) In the blood rices measurably, within 10 minutes after one has swallowed an ounce of cane sugar, and ell of the sugar Is absorbed within 2 hours, even If four ounces ""pHAT answer is easy. If thnt fnther enn't get food by work ing for it, he will got food in some other way. And it is not noocssnry to go into details as to what thnt other way would be. i "Do you mean ho would become an outlaw a criminal he would FIGHT for his food 7" Mr. X might interject at this point. That's what we mean, Mr. X. "But that would be wrong criminal, lawlessness, revolu tion r be taken, whereas tf one takes a Dint of raw milk It is not completely thru the stomach In six hours. These precisely measured facts rather nmke the morbid fancy of putrefaction and the . hypothetical poisoning of the system by the by products (autointoxication or. as some American charlatans now call It, auto toxicosis) seem funny. Not funny to you gullible birds who awal-. low all these pathological suggestions, I suppose, but I'm hard-boiled and It does seem funny to me. The biochemistry professor himself says It Is ridiculous to regard sugar In the Intestine as a "perfect food for pathogenc microbes." Sugar or other soluble carbohydrate which reaches the Intestine fa converted Into lactic and other acids which naturally In hibit or. oppose the growth and mul tiplication of harmful germs. .he only germs which can produce toxins. Various investigators have shown that cane sugar, contrary to the older fancies, is not a foctor of dental carles. But somehow these dear old superstitions persist long after the progress of learning has proved them untenable. Biochemist Cole, by the sray, tells his. students at Cambridge that cane sugar by mouth Is at least equal and probably superior to the comparative ly expensive dextrose. I ' think a lot of gullible doctors In this country could profit or their trusting pa tients could by a vliit to Cambridge. Especially our hoity-toity child spe cialists who prescribe anything -and everything only so It Is not pie bean sugar. All young people who play, exercise or work strenuously as young people shouJd, may well use an ample amount of sugar In their dally diet. It is well digested and absorbed and It wards off exhaustion of the general muscles and the heart muscle. But mature adults who do not play or work hard sugar for them is not so good. QUESTION'S AND ANSWERS Education versus Quarantine - Why quarantine measles and not tuberculosis? Is the government do ing all it can to prevent tuberculosis when it falls to quarantine those who have It. ... ? (H, T.) Answer The necessity for Isolation of persons 111 of communicable dis ease varies Inversely with the Intelli gence of the community. The state assumes, properly, that the . Intelli gence level of the community now makes Isolation (quarantine, as you call It) of the tuberculosis patient unnecessary. It would be a fine thing for the community If persons with your nations about tuberculosis were compelled to live for & month or two In a tuberculosis sanatorium. Besides benefiting your health It would edu cate you. and through you many of your friends and neighbors. Chocolate Food value of chocolate? Should a craving for It be satisfied or curbed in an adult? Would you consider a 5 -cent bar of milk chocolate a day excessive for an adult with an other wise normal appetite? (Q. . M.) Answer The chocolate itself is of Insignificant food value, but rather a mild stimulant (It contains theobro min. akin to caffeln of coffee., but milder !n effect and acting more on the kidneys and less on the heart and nerves or brain than caffeln). The food value of sweet chocolate is in the sugar added." and in the milk added to make milk chocolate. I do not think your indulgence Is harm ful, provided you do not put on superfluous weight. Children under 13 years of age should not have cocoa or "chocolate beverages. As a . flavor, chocolate Is all right. x (Copyright 1935, John T. Dills Co.) Ed.

When Judge Tou Veils took office, there was only an old wagon trail over the Slsklyoua with grades aa steep as 30 percent Moreover It was a toll road and a dollar exacted for every vehicle. It was Impassable even for teams in winter, and few autos could negotiate it In summer. The Crater Lake trail was even worse and it required three days by team to reach the lake from Medford. So the new highway commissioner, a graduate of the University of Cin cinnati law school,' a successful farm er, orchardlat and business man and by experience In road building has a better background for the office than the average appointee.

If the cost of Insurance were tremendously reduced, 1 the' cost of nearly everything we buy would be reduced. That Is another way of saving that we ALL bear our ehare of the cost of needless fires which Is absolutely true M IT Is equally, although the dema gogues do their best to keep us from realizing It, that we ALL bear most healthful and wholesome of roods.

And in Mich a condition what would Mr. X's property be worth, how would it affect his monthly revenue the dollars and cents he delights to jingle? Before it came to that of course, there would be slums and hovels in his fair city, disease and squalor, petty thieving and thieving not so petty, physical degeneracy always followed by moral degeneracy, and many other undesirable items too numer ous to mention.

And private disputes can be settled without lawsuits, also. But often they're not. Private individuals settle their dis putes by going to law. Nations settle their disputes by going to war. In both cases, the dispute origin ally arises because somebody wants something somebody else doesn't want to give up. M IP individuals can ever be brought to point where they won't want what j things they shouldn't have, there will I be no more lawsuits. If nations can 1 be brought to the point where they . won't want things they shouldn't have, there will be no more wars. j ANOTHER Washington dispatch: I "Administration officials to- day counted 1,136,334 persons at work ' on relief projects.
