A research engineer of the Gen eral Motors Corporation, In an in terview, ridicules the depression, and designates It as "nonsense." After all the virile cussing that has been showered on the depres sion, the classification seems weak. The research engineer did not search sufficiently to come to the conclusion, the Depression wolf on the back-porch, should have been pelted with cream-puffs, Instead ol kicked In the short-ribs. Ministerial protests aaln the Un iversity of Oregon football team playing on Sunday yielded no re sult. The final score Indicates Batan played quarterback for the foe. a "Mr. Hoover Is not worrying pro gressives. In fact, they are praying that ha will be the reactionary candidate. He would be easier to defeat that some equally bad man whose cussed ness was not so well known."? (Snlem Capital-Press). All figured out. a e Portland ahlvareea are virile af fairs. In groetlng a pair of newly weds, 31 sticks of dynamite were exploded. In three stanzas Sunday. The resultant reverberations were heard eight miles, and shook up a goodly portion of the metropolis. The bombists will pay all dsmages. bo the event has been duly noted on the Inside pages of the press. It created so much excitement, the phone calls were waking up the police station at the rate of three per minute. It was a gay and seml ldiotlo affair. In which the groom remained Intact. With high explos ives being cast about like an empty gin bottle, searching and sorrow ing friends, might have been un able to find nothing of him, but the heel of his left shoe. Friends of the contracting parties should restrain their Joy, at the nuptials, and stay with the old-fashioned rice of romance. They have done nothing that warrants throwing hand grenades. e a It Is now charged by the nlmble wltted upstate preaj. that holding the primary In September, Instead of May, "hits the poor man" with political ambitions. It gives him less time. In which to go broke, It i argued. By the same token, the millionaire candidate, (if any) has less time. In which to cease to be one. On the other hand, million aires are not notorious for their spending It is detrimental to be coming and remaining a million aire. Until all current Utopian plans to make everybody a millionaire pan out, arrangements should be made to have no losera In an elec tion.

" ORIM WORD TO PROFESSORS (DakcrsMeld, Cat., Caltforntan) The American people tax themselves cheerfully to rslss millions for the support of their universities. They have the rlRht to say that no part of those millions shall go to the pay ment of salaries, either to In structors who like t he Moscow way or who are still searching for truth to determine whether or not they prefer It Ui t he American way. Those professors who like the Moscow way may find coiwnlal employment In Russia though perhaps not. since the same assaults upon estnhlKhed forms there as are alt too common In this land, would invite the prompt atten tion of the firing squad. at Safety committees are trying to evolve plans whereby parents of boyr. will implore them to ride their bicycles with "extreme care, and not on heavy traffic streets."

GENERAL HUGH S. JOHNSON, who will give a speech in Portland tomorrow night, is being deluged with questions, from prominent Republicans of the state metropolis, which he has agreed to answer from the platform. Among these questions is the following presented by State Senator Allan A. Bynon : "Do you believe that the present administration has carried out It 1932 platform or the platform of the aoclallst party?" Mr. Bynon not only asks this question, but wished to make it the subject of a joint debate, with the former administrator of the NRA. In refusing to spend an evening debating such a subject, we think General Johnson showed good sense, and even n certain magnanimity. For, it is an irrelevant and foolish query. IRRELEVANT from the standpoint of the Roosevelt adminis tration, because the administration, will stand or fall, NOT upon whether its platform pledges have or have not been carried out; but whether what it HAS done, has been desirable and beneficial for the people of this country or the reverse. Foolish because, the alternative Mr. Bynon presents is ab surd, and anyone with an elementary knowledge of what SOCIALISM really is, and what the Socialist party stands for, can in a few words, show its absurdity. For that doctrine is the one, w hich not only the administra tion has not adopted but the one it has consistently opposed. SOCIALISM means the public ownership of production, pro perty, capital, etc., etc., for the benefit of the community. It means the ELIMINATION of the private profit system. Look over the elements of the New Deal, particularly the NRA, the AAA, and similar alphabetical departments, and what has been the essential purpose of them all t To TROTECT the profit system ! to assure the average busi ness man a reasonable profit, free from cut-throat competition ; to assure the farmer a reasonable profit, free from over-production, the accumulation of surpluses, which render profitable operation impossible. Even the light and power policy of the administration, has been advanced not as a substitute for private ownership and operation, but as a "measuring stick" for the latter, to eliminate greed, to correct abuses, so that honest and legitimate private enterprise in this field may survive. This isn't socialism. It's the exact reverse. If one insists upon tagging it with some "ism" it is much nearer the "bete noir" of the Socinlist, FASCISM. For it does involve concen tration of authority and control in the central government, and the carrying out of a more or less formal and definite economic plan, under and within the capitalistic system. ..... BUT we prefer the term liberalism, abandonment of the status quo ante, the policy of laissez faire, for a turn to the left and a serious effort to preserve the capitalistic system, by REFORMING it. Before people talk about the New Deal and the present ad ministration being socialistic, they should at least take the trouble to find out what Socialism really is, and what its funda mental purposes are. The first principle of a public debate, is to have a clear and concise definition of terms. Of all tho charges brought against the Roosevelt administra tion, the charge that it has followed the platform and principles of the Socialistic party, is the most absurd. Communications pipes Is Misinformed. To the Ddltor: May T have the privilege of an swering the communication In your good paper of Sunday. December 8th. signed by Mr. A. W. Pipes, who so bitterly opposed the recent bond Issue to secure government funds to con struct en additional reservoir for Medford'a water system. Mr. Pipes evidently la misinformed as to the recent reduction in Insur ance rates; he seems to be of the impression that these reductions were strictly local, applying to Medford only, and that the threat of Increased Insurance rates which the proponents of the new rwrrotr published was all prop.ianda. As a matter of fact, these reduc tions were statewide and had nu hearing at all on the Medford situa tion, which remains aa before na re gards the probability of increased istea at such time aa the old pipe system la abandoned, In event the rddltlonal storage Is not provided. We appreciate greatly the fait that Medford has an outstanding fire de partment and It Is so credited In our tat: however, this had no bearing on the present reductions which were secured by the cooperative action of members of the Oregon State Agents' uumclatlcm.

Wright and Dean Mof fat, New York, found that when a person accustom ed to smoking smokes one ordinary c h g -arette there Is an average drop of 53 degrees P. In the surface tem perature of the smoker's fingers and t o e a; In many Instances It Is greater than that; in one in stance they ob served a drop of 15.6 degrees. They aslo observed slowing and stoppage of the blood flow of capillaries In the nail folds. The length of time the person had been In the habit of smoking and the number of cigar ettes smoked dally, had apparent inuuencv on mese enacts, rrac neat ly no difference was noted between the effect of ordinary cigarettes, de nlcottnlzed cigarettes and mentho lated cigarettes. Inhaling Increased the effect on the surrace tempera ture. That rate of blood flow In the cap illaries of the nail folds Is an interest ing test to make on yourself if you are a smoker. Under a good light draw the sole of the thumb over the skin on the bock of the middle or ring finger Just below the edge of the nail. Note how quickly the blanching disappears, or how quickly the normal flush returns. Then make the same test when you have smoked and compare. Another Investigator, Dr. R. Starr Lampson, Boston, carried on further studies and scientific measurements of the degree of Impairment of the circulation produced by smoking. He found that smoking and inhaling cig arettes produces a sudden and mark ed peripheral vasconstrlctlon, that Is, a contraction, narrowing, shutting down of the fine arteries at the points where the blood enters the capillary spaces. This effect lasts for 60 min utes. If the Rmoke Is not inhaled, the vasconstrlctlon occurs Just the same, but lasts only about 15 min utes. The difference between puffing the smoke right out of the mouth and Inhaling is merely a difference In the area of mucous membrane exposed to tho smoke, and consequently a i difference In the dose, the amount of I the drug absorbed. Dr. Lampson found that so-called denicotlnlzed cigarettes produced less effect than ordinary cigarettes. Cigar NEW YORK DAY BY DAY Ry O. O. Mclntyre NEW YORK, Dec. 10.

These studies are slgnflcant. espe cially for persons subject to or now training fo; angina pectoris or throm bo angiitis obliterans, and they may be of Interest to many smokers who wonder why they have cold hands and feet. Some chemists and physicians be lieve the effects of tobacco smoking are largely due to the carbon monox ide Inhaled. Drs. H. W. Haggard and L, A. Greenberg found that smoking pro duces a definite but temporary In crease In blood sugar and a corres ponding Increase In the rate of sugar combustion This la probably due to the excitation of it ho adrenal secretion, which Drs. Cannon, Aug and Blnger demonstrated aa an effect of tobacco smoking years ago. The blood sugar mobilization may account for the gratification of a smoke.

These proceedings, which are of a legal nature, have been brought by American citizens (apparently of Italian extraction) who want to sell oil, cotton, scrap Iron, brass, etc., to Italy. THE government of the United States quite commend ably, this writer thinks la trying to atay out of the war between Italy and Ethio pia and whatever wars may grow out of It. Remembering that it was trade with the warring nations (belliger ent nations, the diplomats say) that got us into the World war, our gov ernment la trying to HEAD OFF such trade In the present instance. That la the purpose back of the neutrality resolution adopted by the recent congress. THK situation, briefly, la this: The nation, as a whole, wants to stay out of present and future European wars, having got Its fingers frightfully burned In the last Eur opean war. There can be no doubt of this desire on the part of the nation as a whole. But Individuals and communities throughout the nation want to sell their products at the best possible price and wars create demand at HIGH PRICES for commodities used in the making of war. Cotton, oil, scrap Iron and brass are among these commodities. CALIFORNIA, Texas, Oklahoma and other states produce oil not merely enough for their own needs and the needs of the nation, but a VAST SURPJjUS.

There Is piled i In warehouses In this country now the equivalent of a full year's crop. ABOVE the present year's production. Thla accumulated cotton la causing a lot of worry In the cotton states. War creates a demand for this surplus cotton. . AND so It goes on down the line. As a nation, we want to stay out of the war, but . aa Individuals and communities we want to sell what we produce at good prices and WAR CREATES DEMAND AND SENDS PRICES UP. The trouble Is that pressure of In dividuals and communities with pro ducts they want to sell at war prices Is apts to force the nation Into a position where war will be Inevitable. THERE Is another angle; If we refuse to sell oil, cotton, etc., to Italy, we align ourselves by that refusal with Britain, France and the other nations that are undertak ing' to prevent Italy from doing In Africa what they .themselves have done all over the world. Thus we ANGER ITALY and what ever allies she may gather to herself, and so put ourselves In a position where war might conceivably be de clared upon us. THE point tha is here sought to be brought out is that staying out of war Is by no means as simple as on the surface It appears to be. There are snares and pitfalls on every hand, and in seeking to keep out of one we are apt to trip and fall into another. If the war between Italy and Eth iopia spreads, as now seems not im probable,. It will take courage, skill, resourcefulness and steadfastness of purpose on the part of our govern ment to stay out of It. Many Homeless In Texas Flood Wake HOUSTON, Tex.. Dec. 10.
