Thanksgiving day, and there Is much for which to be thankful. The deep melancholy ot the Depression haa faded, and the pant year It was neither fashionable or righteous to be blue. Also, there was no Civic Peeve, In which every body got mad at everybody else, not knowing or caring what about. Tomorrow there will be good cheer, and turkey the ybung receiving the tough hind-legs, and the old the tender glswmrds. There will also be football. On Friday, both will be re hashed. e e A careful upstate editor feels "the special session of the legislature did not go far enough." There Is con siderable sentiment the special ses sion of the legislature should have made It to the point on the lake, best adapted to Jumping Into It. TJncIe, 67. has returned from an Ik bunt. Uncle's legs and lungs are m good as ever, but the Eastern Oregon mountains are getting steeper. National leaders of Democracy ad mit they would like to see Herbert Hoover as the OOP presidential nom inee In 1036,- so "history would re peat Itself as In 1933." The Democratic leaders should go back eight years, when Democratic strongholds like Texas and Florida and Virginia voted for Hoover, for fear the Pope of Rome would catch them for their history repeating. e The whiskey advertisements ad vising Imblbera not to drink too much of the product, la being heeded about like the auto advertisements sdvlalng purchasers the car will go 90 miles per hour, but they will never need to go that fast.

It Is now freely predicted thst the Sales Tax measure to provide funds for the payment of Old Age pen sions will be defeated. In the Janu ary 31 elections. Thla Is the common fat of a humanatarlan move when It associates with politics and poli ticians. The tatter, with honeyed words, all appear at public meets, and tell the Old folks he Is for the Sales Tax. and. on election day sneak off to the polli. and vote against It. Such tactics are called "practical pollttca." and considered both cute and smart however dis appointing to the aged. A way should be evolved, so the speeches a dema gogue makes supporting Old Age Pensions would be counted, instead of the vote he casta against them A still better way to gain political Justice, would require the species to attend a mass-meet Ing of the old. and there cam their vote by the usual "Yea" or "No." e e Economic conditions have Im proved, but It's so cold there iu only 7fl or 80 clttnem at one time watching two men dig a hole yes terday. tee The high court freed one man charged with Communistic activities, found upon the grounds he did not know the content of the com munistic literature In his possession The other fellow, similarly charged, made s Communistic speech, but It was not held he did not know what he was talking about.

The weather man is on his good behaviour. Three days now without fog or rain, sunny and mild, excellent for street walking. Moreover, never saw San Franciseo so homelike, for example a jaunt from the Palace Hotel, through Union Sutter street and who should we Roberts, C, M.

A regular old home week. ..... A Bit of Sweden is a popular place now for luncheon. So popular we had to stand in line for half an hour before we could get a seat. The poor head waiter was having a terrible time being pulled by the coat tails hither and yon, and asked about this place he had promised and that. Ho was very patient and polite. Couldn't say as' much for some lady members of the congregation. Kipling never said a truer word than that mem orable comment on the female of the species, and when they are hungry and some mere man tolls them they must back up in line and wait I ' A Bit of Sweden is a bit of everything to eat, a long table known as a Smorgasbord littered with various and sundry hors docuvres, cheeses, pickles, herring, sardines, sliced cold meats, salads, liverwursts and what have you. No limit to what you can have provided you can carry it on ONE plate, with a hot dish added, coffee and dessert. Nothing like catching the pop ular fancy. Have to walk up a long flight of stairs, and stand in line but can you keep the ladies away not on your life! Returning to the hotel about motor bus drawn up at the curb at the side entrance with sev eral passengers within and a smart uniformed driver at the wheel. Bell boys were putting in luggage for a nicely dressed elderly woman who was observing the operation while she searched in her purse for change. Burlington was marked on the side of the bus and Chicago in illuminated letters at the front. The coach left as we stood there, moving majestically through the traffic, while passengers within waved to friends on the sidewalk. Not long ago 70 hours from San Francisco to Chicago wasn't bad time for limited trains. This bus will make the journey in 67 hours, the fare being $29.50. No place to sleep, however, except reclining chairs. "We will have sleeping car busses to Chicago in another year," said the Burlington agent who was on hand to see the passengers off, "same with the S. P. and Santa Fc. We have night coaches now from Ij. A. to Kansns City, they will be running from all points on the coast iu 1936." Aye verily, the This is a grent place for labor it's something else, The glass blowers' union is threatening to walk out because certain breweries are selling beer in cans. Sentimentally wo are on the side . There is an interesting newspaper situation here. The morn' ing Chronicle has had its face arm. A young man only 27 years old by the name of Paul Smith, is now the executive head tinder the famed and gifted Chester Rowel, editor in chief. A few weeks ago San Francisco was given a shock onlv exceeded bv that famous earthquake thirty years ago. On the front editorinl giving the labor unions' Veteran subscribers of this conservative and nob hillish per iodical would not have been more amazed had Herbert Hoover, the sage of Palo Alto, suddenly climbed up on a soap box in Union Square, and given three rousing cheers for the Soviet Republic. But it made a great hit with the people of San Fran cisco as a whole, as courage and good sportsmanship always (or almost always) do. It's such a simple thing and as plain as the nose on Jimmy Durante's face. And yet so few newspaper men, particularly the older ones, realize it. The American peo ple no longer want canned opinions or class prejudices in 'their newspapers, 'they want the NEWS and the news means giv ing a square deal to both sides in a controversy, not one, which is all the Chronicle set out to do. But it was the first time in over half a century, that in the Chronicle office this had been done. As a result for every old, hard-shell subscriber lost, there were a dozen or more put on, and the old "Pacific-Union" Chronicle, slipping badly, is now rising in circulation and street sales, like a stralhosphcre balloon! Chief credit goes to a young man, still in his twenties who quit school and went to work on his own at 14 ! Paul Smith is the tnnst of the town 1 R. W. R. Comment on the Day's News IU FRANK JENKINS HERE'S a basic fact about the newspaper business there's Al WAY8 NEWS. Borne days the run of mill of It is good, full of flavor for the average reader, with crunchy little kernels o human Intereit news that are Appre ciated by all. Other days It la rather poor In quality. But, such aa tt Is, there's always plenty of It. ON the day this Is written. King George of Clreece leaves Brlndlal, Italy, to return to his long-vacant throne. (He was forced to abdicate, you know, back In the yeara following the war when people didn't have much use for kings,) Dressed In an admiral's uniform, he stands oa the bridge of the Clret-s cruiser Helll. receiving the salutes of Italian warships while Italian bands play the Greek anthem and the Hel U'a band responds with "Allan hymns. Hit chest probably swells quit a little as all thla goes on. He hasn t been used to much pomp and cere mony during his exile, and kings un doubtedly set a lot of store by such thingx. WHEN the Greeks kicked King George out, they figured they were starting new era of grand things for themselves, when every body would have everything he want ed and NOBODY would be poor. Since then, they've discovered that they are no better off without a king than with one, so they're calling their king back In the hope that a KING will make everybody happy and pros perous. fn the course of lime, Qt hey ll learn maybe that happiness and Square to a "Bit of Sweden" on meet but Mr. and Mrs. George (who gave us the sad news of Bunset, noticed a brand new railroads are waking up! troubles.

SOME three years ago, we of Amer ica thought that If we could only kick out the wicked Republi cans who'd been running thlnga for us for so long our troubles would vanish and in the future nobody would ever be poor, nobody would ever again have to work or scheme or save or sacrifice, nobody would ever again have to do anything he didn't want to do. So we kicked out the Republicans and put In the New Dealers. Now we're beginning to discover that we're no better off than we were before, and In some ways were WORSE off. SOONER or later, we'll do as the Greeks have Just done that la. we'll throw out the New Dealers, whom we have now, and put back the Republicans, whom we ht be fore. Perhaps we'll do It next fall. But If that Is ALL we do If wc merely throw out the New Deal pol iticians nd demagogues and replace them with Republican politicians and demagogues we'll be no better uff . If governments are to do anything worth while for their pcopte. they must be based upon patriott.nn. sound statesmanship and GOOD SENSE. IN recent years, we've had govern ment by demagogues, who cheer fully promise everything In sight, in cluding a life of plenty without work, merely by the process of pas. Ing a law.

Perhaps 1 per cent of all milk sold today Is cer tified milk. Then there Is a certain amount of high grade raw milk (from tubeructln tested herds) sold, usually un der the designa tion Grade A Raw, and tho rest is Just milk or mainly milk, as one might say. Pasteurizing 1 s simply moderate heating. The milk Is heated to 140 or 146 degrees P., held at that temperature for 30 min utes, then allowed to cool again. This parboiling or pasteurizing destroys dis ease germs which may be In the milk, such as germs of tuberculosis;, septic sore throat, Malta, or undulant fever, diphtheria, typhoid fever, scarlet fe ver, paratyphoid, dysentery. This pas teurizing has no objectionable effect on the milk, so far as the majority of consumers arc concerned. I like milk fresh, raw and warm if t can get It that way, but anyway fresh as possible and raw If I have as surance of the freedom of the cow or cows from tuberculosis and from un dulant fever. This limits my choice of milk to certified milk, which of course costs more than ordinary mar ket milk, or to mik from a tuberculin tested herd, or to milk from a cow that looks o. k. to me, if I am stand ing by while the milking is being done. Just a finicky notion, perhaps, but somehow unheated milk tastes more like milk to me. However, per haps 00 out of a hundred persons find tho taste of high grade (Grade A) Pasteurized milk quite satisfac tory. If so, they should by all means InslHt that any milk they buy come so labeled Grade' A Pasteurized, or at least Pasteurized. Where Certified Milk,., is available and within means .(It costs 26 per cent more than Grade A Raw or Grade A Pasteurized, as a rule). It Is a boon for Infant, child, Invalid or any one else who drinks milk. Certified Milk Is the purest and safests milk money can buy, in my Judgment. If Grade A Raw milk from tuber- culln-testcd cows Is available and your family physician or your local j health department approves of It, this; grade of milk Is generally pleasing ' to the taste of one who does not like pasteurized milk, and It usually costs ' little If any more than Grade A Pas teurized. NEW YORK DAY BY DAY Ry O. O. Mclntyre NEW YORK, Nov. 37. George Gershwin continues one of the town's shyest celebrities, despite the seasonal avalanche of honors emending from his Theatre Guild operatic triumph. Pale, thin and harrass cd by a chronic dyspepsia, he sits at Lhe piano many hours dally. In leisure he clings to pals of those bleaker days when his wandering f 1 n- gera were seeking the arrangement of notes that form ed "Rhapsody in Blue" and others that brought him world acclaim. His brother Ira. a lyricist, la even more self-effacing and rarely appears In public. Gershwin lives around the corner on Riverside Drive from his friend. Rube Goldberg, and has watched the cartoonist's sons grow with an avun cular interest. He goes to many par ties where ho is naturally Jockeyed to the piano and never tires impro vising what ever they want to hear. H.s devotions have long been cen tered on his picturesque father, whom everybody knew as "Pop." And the latter' passing recently was a crush ing blow.

Certified Milk, Grade A Pasteur ized or Grade A Raw, as the case may be. If In doubt about the milk, tt Is always wise to scald It that Is bring It to a boll for one minute This scalding will as certainly destroy any disease germs In the milk as will pasteurizing.

Increase reserve requirements of member banks. Further than that there Is probably nothing effective which can be done aboue excess reserves. These, cautious deterrents are all understood to have been discussed at the meeting of FBR officials here last week, but no announcement was made about them. If one had been, the effect would have been opposite from that of Governor Eccles' state ment. The basic situation behind all this is that the financial authorities of the New Deal are agreed that the current market and business, trend Is up. They like It. They have convinced themselves that It is on a firm foun dation. They do not want to do any thing to stop It. Nor do they want to lay themselves open to misinterpre tations of booming It. This requires a lot of tight-wire walking, In which there are bound to be occasional slips on both sides of the wire. So far, the New Dealers have favored the boom side. Also hanging over them is the fact that they will have to act, sooner or later. They probably could have start' ed acting this week without any im portant reaction. It la true that brok ers' loans have not increased during the recent market rise. But, after all. they do amount to a billion dollars. Also there la no excellent reason why banks should be permitted to lend more on margin than brokers, al though the Importance of that sttu. atlon also Is yet to be felt. Basically. It will be easier to take any restrictive steps now. Political pressure will be heavy next year. It may be hard to believe, but It Is apparently true that Governor Eccles &poke out, and got himself misinter preted, because he thought some con fusion existed about the board's pow ers. Apparently he was nettled by some criticism he heard at the Amer ican Bankers' convention. He- Is a straight-forward and sensitive man. He thought he would clear everything up. The firmness in the Industrial sit uation is not being over-played by all the uplift statements you are reading currently. It Is not new. It is Just getting to be official. , There have been three business Im provements since the depths of the depression. The first was In the sum mer of 1933, before the NRA started. This was an artificial flurry based only on the activity of industrialists who wanted to get out a lot of cheap production before the codes went Into effect. The second flurry was in the spring of 1934. It also was confined to special lines of activity. The third started early last winter. It has been going on nearly a year now. There Is no Bpectal reason for it. No special activity in particular lines. There was a recession last summer, but It did not even get back to the top peak of the 1934 high point of Industrial pro duction. If this Is not the real thing, at least It Is fooling every economist In town. A few good labor insiders here sus pect the resignation of John L. Lewis is another omen, the beginning of the end of the existing A. P. of L. or ganization set-up. What leads them to such an extreme suspicion Is that Lewis Is very close to the New Deal, while most of the officials he left on the A. P. of L. executive board are not. They think he will be able to use the powerful sympathies of the administration In his technical fight for re -unionization. His resignation does not mean that he Is going to set up a competitive organization. He will continue to fight within the A. F. of L. The resig nation was merely a dramatic ges ture to help his fight along. Mr. Hopkins, the great spender. Is understood to be having his troubles paying some of his PWA bills. Half a dozen photographic agencies here have not been able to collect for publicity picture work, some of which dates back to lsst April and beyond. ( Red tape and Comptroller General McCarl are supposed to be responsi ble ) Among the items yet unpaid Is one of twelve elettant portraits of Mr. Hopkins himself.
