The Vital Issue in 1 936 ACCORDING to a dispatch from New York, Senator Borah believe! the 1936 Republican campaign should be based upon "a trust busting issue." 1 T. R. jr. disagrees. Colonel Roosevelt grants the evils of monopoly, and is a firm believer in the established American principle of competition, but he believes there will be more im portant issues in 1936 than trust busting. t - We agree with T. R. jr. There will be many more. In fact some problems which are important now may not be important then. The world Is changing rapidly, and whether or no, the United States will be changing with it. The senior senator from Idaho better wait about naming the paramount issue, until the time for writing the party platform arrives. e AND with this changing world may come a radical change'in the popular attitude toward so-called trusts, particularly where trusts represent not actual monopolies, but large concen trations of capital, engaged in mass production. The way things are going now, an issue that hasn't been a live one for many years may oecome of vital importance to the people of this country as a whole, 12 months hence, i.e.: the "high cost of living. " Prices are going up now, with gold pouring into this country from abroad, with business in practically all directions steadily improving, the average person'in 1936 may be chiefly concerned with adjusting income to outgo, to his own comfort and satis faction. If such a situation should come to pass, the people would take about as much interest in a trust busting campaign, as in a campaign to restore the Smoot-Hawley tariff. IN fact as far as trusts represent mass production as opposed to piece-meal production, they also represent reduction of costs to the consumer. There would be less than mild interest, on the part of the rank and file, in an effort to break up all large units of production, and replace them with innumerable small ones, if this were to result in increasing rather than de creasing, what the average man had to have.' ' Trust busting was a live and of the original T. R. " In this dizzily revolving world, with such vast and far reaching changes, only a secondary issue, and promises soon to become no issue at all. How to provide profitable work for those who want it, how to maintain a decent standard of living for those who deserve it; and while doing these things, how to maintain a democratic and solvent government, in this field as we see it, lie the issues for the next presidential campaign, and in no other. : War News Is AT the present rate war news r-AincArArl t.ft An innirlfl rmffA. For it is becomng more and news from the seat of war at least none that can be relied upon. Haile Selassie controls the controls the news from the two chief army headquarters. Natur ally these two sources conflict and naturally also, neither side sonds out anything of importance or that would tend to give encouragement to the enemy. So about all we know.about know NOTHING, and will know nothing, until some of tho correspondents now in that country, are able to get out of it. When this happens there will that when it does happen, a European war will not be on, and the dispatches sent will not have to be relayed through censor ships at Rome, Paris or London, In which case of course, this country will only get the nous, the various governments wish them to have. It's the same old story. As far as war news is concerned, history is repeating itself. The TRUE history of the world war was not written until it had ended. The historv of this war won't be. Who Is Looney Now? A N American journalist writing in tho Nation from Florence, Italy, claims Mussolini doesn't fear war with Great Britain but welcomes it. In fact knocking John Bull out of the European picture and puttirlg II Duce in, is a part of the present Fascist program. Italian Fascists it appears, believe as the former Kaiser be lieved, that England has not only seen its best days, but is deca dent. "Mussolini" as this writer expresses it, "plans to plant the imperial Roman lion, on the cadaver of the British empire," am) so forth and so on. XTTELL, we admit an American journalist living in Italy should know considerably more about Mussolini's pur poses than one living five or six thousnnd miles away in Med ford, Oregon. Nevertheless aforesaid Mcdford editor can't see it or believe it, and we fear is so plain dumb he will just have to be shown. For how in the name of common sense can Mussolini expect to knock out John Bull, with the British and French fleets against him? How in fact can he wage war in Ethiopia or keep his people at home from destitution and starvation, until he wipes the combined British and French fleets from the seas? And what does he intend to do this with? Italy not only can't wage a at home, without imports of coal, We fail to see why the combined British and French fleets couldn't bottle up Italy, completely in 24 hours, if war should be declared. In fact if this is Mussolini's program, wo can only conclude II Uuce is as mad as a March hare. Perhaps that's the answer. He is. State Ag. Director Able Walk Again ftAlJCM, Oct. 17. OP) Solon T.

It la because I do not know anything about it and the subject does not seem to me to fit in a health column. I hope readers who Imagine they have colitis will not quit. Just as soon aa anything turns up that seemb worthy I'll pass It along." Something has turned up. Contri bution from a colleague whose prac tice la limited to proctology: Etymologlcaliy "colitis" means in flammation of the colon . . . rarely shows real Inflammation, hence the colitis seldom seen. Hypersecretion and hy'permottltty flth no inflammation Is very com mon. Its real cause Is ordinarily not recognized and consequently treat ment Is seldom satisfactory. ' A better name for It Is colu-muco- sls meaning excessive mucus in the colon. Some authorities consider this af fliction a pure neurosis, but they stop short right there. (And let us stop briefly to explain right here that mumus is the correct spelling for the noun, mucous, for the adjective. Neurosis is a func tional disorder, presumably of the nervous system, for which no- cause Is known or no lesion is found on ex amination for Instance epilepsy, mi graine, hysteria, writer's cramp, spas tic constipation). My experience, continues the proc tologist, has cdhvtnced 'me one will generally find a definite source of Ir ritation If one makes a careful rectal examination. The ano-rectal region is supplied with filaments from the au tonomic ("sympathetic") nervous sys tem which governs all the vital func tions. Perfect function here means perfect balance between the oppos ing controlling forces or reins, viz., the activator or vagus and the In hibitor of 'checker or sympathetic. Persistent Irritation of terminal ano-rectal nerve filaments reflex. y overstlmulates the colon to increased function, hypersecretion of mucus and hyper motility or excessive pers- talsls colic or cramp, and the effect Is coll-mucosls. In my earlier days in this field I was frequently astonished at the com plete and permanent relief of long standing cases of so-called colitis following proper treatment of some such condition as anal fissure, a troublesome hemorrhoid or pruritus. Then X began to be on the alert for such sources of Irritation which were not at the time complained of. . . . It Is curious how these patients dwell NEW YORK DAY BY DAY Ry O. O. Mclntyre NEW YORK. Oct. 17. The depres sion's aftermath colled many queer mental kinks along Its destructlve.path. There is the mid- die aged man-about-town with a flourishing bus iness of his own who lost every thing In 34 hours, Fortunately, he has several grown children a m p ly fixed. They provide for all the need ed comforts, in cluding the fresh lapel flower he has worn since early manhood. Yet poverty's mark of terror Is still upon him. Rational about moat things, he believes he Is penniless and in danger of starvation. So when he meet acquaintances on the street he panhandles for as little as as cents, But continues to lunch at the best places, charge ac counts having been arranged for him. Even after a filling meal he will often ask the waiter for loan of a small amount. Then the Wall Street broker, once a delight to the gleaners along the way that is white. He, too, was un tnissed over night. The shock gave htm a delusion of grandeur. With his spare nlckles he phones for table reservations at expensive cafes and eats In one-armed lunches. With a hew three-year starring contract. Irvln S. Cobb Is likely lost to New York permanently. He has put his co-operative Park avenue apartment and East ha mp ton home on the market. And some time ago bought a former Oarbo mansion at Santa Monica. Cobb's advent In the movies was not a sudden whim or freak of circumstance. He has al ways had n secret longing to be an actor. He expresses It in a limited way by his country-wide swing of the Chautauqua and on various lee ture junkets. When In the full flush of his writing career, he worked from B a. m. until 1 p. m. dally and his afternoons were usually spent at The l.ambs or The Players in company with actors. His cronies Included Itfun COMPACT TWO-STORY COLONIAL x See BIO PINES LUMBER CO. tTiNlNa t' " " 0 THE COLUMN on. and apparently exaggerate, thtr mucosls symptoms and yet Ignore or minimize the symptoms of an under lying rectal condition, so that tho real cause of their troubles escapes at tention unless the physician is mind ed to look for it. (End of colleague's remarks). We all know a great many people use alleged pile remedies when In fact they have no such trouble. I wonder whether there are not as many people taking treatment, medi cine, funny diets or unnatural "in ternal baths" for what purports to be mucous colitis, when the actual source of the trouble Is some such simple ano-rectal lesion as the proc tologist describes. It beats alt how prudish and silly and difficult peo ple of limited Intelligence can be about a proper examination In such circumstances. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Premature Baldness Twenty years old. Have been los ing my hair for four years. Not 'in spots, but over the whole scalp. Dr. .. gives me a shot of antui- trim once a week. Do you. think this Is any good? Also, X massage my scalp every night for 10 minutes. (C. A.) Answer. Your doctor is a good one. I think I'd stick with the treatment for a reasonable trial period, say three months, tf I were you. Send a stamp ed envelope bearing your address and ask for monograph on Care of the Hair and Control of Dandruff. Hunchback What are the consequences if a woman marries a hunchback? I think it Is from tubercular spine. (C. P. M.) Ans, Nothing hereditary of com municable about it. If the man has not tuberculosis, now, he may be fit for marlage. In any case, why not ask the prospective bridegroom to present his health certificate from a physician you know of standing? Every man should do that as a mat ter of course, before contracting an engagement to marry. Iodin Ration T have been on your iodin ration now for the second month. It cer tainly has put new pep in me. I am 70 years old and have more pep now than I had at SO. (W. T. B.) Ans. In two words that's what It does. Adults who are stale, getting turely gray, slowing down, getting old before their time, generally need lodln. Directions for taking the tod In will be mailed If you ask for it and Inclose stamped envelope bearing your address. If you want the booklet, "Regeneration Regimen," which In cludes also advice about diet, inclose 10 cents In coin. (Copyright, 1036, John P. Dllle Co.) Ed.

But time changed the picture and only Wilson remains. Of the Illustrious four, three came out of that mar velous incubator of talent, the Mc Caull Opera Company, Daniels being the exception.

(Copyright, 303S, McNaught Syndicate) Qomment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS NOTE these headlines; ' "Genera! European conflict Foreseen by Italian Leader: Mussolini : Abandons Last Hope of Avoiding War Great Britain." HOPEFUL, or otherwise? Well, that's a hard question to answer. Sometimes, you know, when you're sitting in a poker game and get a hand that doesn't look so good, you RUN A BLUFF. Mussolini may be doing that. YOU never can tell what diplomats mean by what they say. If di plomacy, which means the contact of nation with nation, were a little more honest and straightforward and a lit tle less diplomatic, it might be better for the world. ' THIS dispatch-from Paris interests Americans : ".Officials disclosed today that France and Great Britain are asking Washington If the United States is willing to restrict Its imports from Italy In case such a sanction against Premier Mussolini's nation Is applied by the league of nations." THIS writer, as one quite unimpor tant American, would answer: "No. We're going to run our own business, this ,ttme, and let you run yours. We weren't smart enough to do that in the World war, but we ARE smart enough to learn by hard experience." THIS dispatch from Trenton. New Jersey, is significant, if not par ticularly reassuring: "The footsteps of men marching past his cell to the electric chair is apparently getting to be an old story to Bruno Richard Hauptmann." FIVE condemned criminals have walked past the door of Hauptmann's cell, on their way to the hot seat, since the kidnaper and murderer of the Lindbergh baby entered the prison death house. UHY? FT The answer is plain. These five lacked the money, or the influence, or the backing of sa-headed, mushy sentlmentallsm to enable them to in voke legal delay after legal delay to keep them out of the death chair. A situation like that doesn't help to build confidence In law and order and constituted authority.
