A number of Oregon politicians, who have been flitting with the Old Folk for their votes, are In dignant at claims they are 'Insin cere,' and more Interested In votes for themselves, than In the rinan rial atate or their audlenre.

War Comes Nearer, but, TTIE appointment of Captain Robert Anthony Eden to sue- ceed .Sir Samuel Hoare as foreign secretary, deliver the final "coup de grace" to the partition of Ethiopia. As long as the brilliant and dashing Captain is in charge of Great Britain's foreign policy, there will be no secret conces sions to Mussolini at the expense of King Haile Selassie, and in violation of the letter and the spirit of the League of Nations covenant. England will now concentrate upon support of the League, and the drastic imposition of sanctions, against Italy, as the aggressor in this unofficial war against the only remaining in dependent nation in Africa. SUCH a change in policy will bring war between England and Italy nearer, for to make sanctions effective there must be a willingness to hack them up by force. But if war should come it would be from England's standpoint, a war to uphold the sanctity of treaties, protect the weak against the strong, and oppose the revival of militant imperialism in the Mediterranean. . . . . 1VT0T that these worthy motives would be the real basis for ' England's policy, no, we are not quite as naive as that Self interest rules Great Britain, as it does all other nations. But that would not alter the fact, that in this particular in. stance, the principles of international morality, happen to coin cide, with what England regards as the host plan to carry out, for the protection of her vital interests in Africa, India and along the shores of the Mediterranean. That's all. But that's SOMETHING in THIS world, where at least two great nations are willing to wage war of self interest contrary to all principles of what is fair and just and right. Are the Lindberghs to Leave? SO Colonel and Mrs. Lindbergh with their young son, are en route to England to spend the holidays. According to the N. T. Times, they are leaving the United States to make their home abroad, but this is denied by close friends of the family in New Jersey. We are inclined to believe the friends in New Jersey are right. Somehow we can't picture "Lindy and Anne", as per manent expatriots, in England or anywhere else. It is to the everlasting shame of this country however, tjiat if the Times report should prove to be true, Colonel and Mrs. Lindbergh have really decided to make their permanent home in England, there would be ample justification for such action. Their only son kidnapped and slain, and now again another only son, the cause of constant threats, from cranks and mem bers of the underworld, threatening a similar crime, keeping the father and mother in constant apprehension and fear, com pelling guards at their home, and rendering any sort of normal life impossible. It is a shame and a disgrace that such conditions could be possible in any country calling itself civilized 1 Personal Health Service By William Brady, M D Signed letter, peruinlni to peraunai neallh and njrfleDe not Co dlseasr uiacnmii 01 treatment will be anaoered t Dr. Brad, U a tumped wli-ad dreurd enrelope la enclosed Letter, should De oriel and written In Ink uwinc to tne large number ol letter raeelted only a tew can be answered No reply can be made to qoertea not conforming to Instruction, addreas Or William Brad,. 285 El (Jamlno. Beverly Hills, cat 2000 Years of Progress! WE don't believe it necessary to comment upon the irony contained in the following dispatch sent over the Atlantic cables today by the United Press, from Bethlehem: ' Bethlehem. Doc. 23. In this Holy city where Christ was born nearly 3000 yeara ago armed police strode the narrow street Sunday aa war spread Ita pall over a uaually Joyous Christmas scene. Extra police were posted throughout Bethlehem, which gave to the world Its prayer of "Peace on earth, good will toward men." to prevent rioting over the ltalo-Ethloplan conflict when the Holy Night Is observed Tuesday.. On the eve of the festival at the spacious Church of tha Nativity, where a sacred grotto reals on the spot where Jesua la believed to have been born In a stable manger, there waa unconcealed tension. There have been rumora lor Heveral days In the bazaara and native coffco houses of brewing trouble between the largo Ethiopian population and the Italian pilgrims. The authorise recalling the racial disturbance that were frequent before tha World war, decided on more police. In yeara past this little town on the hill has been crfcmmed witli Christian vlsltora from all pari of the world, but Bethle hem was ominously quiet today. Went her.

Comment on the Day's News ty FIIANK JKNK1NS I INTERESTING headlines in the papers thene days If you hap pen to tx Interested In the thlnn these headlines deal with. This one, for example: 'imiTlSH FOKEK1N MlMPTEIt OUT." THE British foreign minister who Is out la Sir Samuel Hotire. and he li out because common, av erage, honest Englishmen refused to approve his scheme to throw lit tle Ethiopia to tne Hons In order to atop a war that might become embsrrassing to England tt It went on. These common, average, hones'. Englishmen kicked up such a dis turbance that Sir Samuel had to renlfrn to kep the higher-ups from getting Into trouble. THAT la a good slpn. If we're go ing to outlaw war In this world, we're going to need more common, average, everyday honesty and decency In the relationship of nations with other nations. Another Interesting headline: "Nn. I tlonal Pebi p;,wra Thirty ItlUlon Point." Did you ever stop to think how much money tt will take to pay oft a deht of 30 billion dollars? It will tske more money thsn m si of ut can TMAQNtK. IT would take l.ooo men worklnn for 11,000 a yesr a thousand ' yesrt to esrn ONE billion dollars In order to earn ihhty hilMon dot. Isrs. a tnousnnd men, gMtrg fl rnv year, 4 have to work !W THIRTY THOUSAND YEARS. That la a long time. - THE money to pay thla 30 billion dollar debt will have to ba EARNED. Let's not fool ourselves a to that. The only way debt can be paid la by earning the money and paying" It over. They can't be paid by waving wand. SUPPOffE somebody had suggest ed to your grandfather that the time would coma when the pub lic debt of the federal government not to mention the public debt ol the states, counties, cities, achool districts, ro.id districts, etc. would reach thirty billion dollars. What would the old gentleman have done? He'd have bed a fit. right there on the floor. In all prob nbillty. Put we resd n In the paper and think nothng of It. Times change. ANOTHER significant headline: "Tnwnsend Ticket Wins In Michigan." It wins, sa a mutter of fact, by TWO TO ONE. Whether or not you believe the Townsend plan could be made to work and this writer Is In the dog house wl t h a lot of good friends becnujie he doesn't believe It can be mnde to work you've got to admit that Townsendlsm Is a btg fsctor In prr-nt-ilay politics. your old radio on o new 1936 TRADE IN GRUNOW RADIO RADIO ELECTRIC SERVICE I ft K. CHIMIN W. .Iiti'k.im M. Phnne 7i no A man U ai old as he's feeling, a woman ss old as she looks. One is as old as one's heart. A man Is old as his arteries. Age Is ft matter of feeling, not of years. These and similar sayings contain acme truth as well as poetry. This Is one of a series of talks on the preven tion of prema ture senility. When does sen ility or old age begin? Have to decide on that before we ean apply preventive measures. Old age begins, according to some doctors, about a hundred years before you are born. But, shucks, so does everything else that may happen to you. Oh, certainly, some persons are better born, better material In them, bettor atock. no disease handed to them at birth. But at worst this Is a minor factor so far aa longevity Is concerned. How long you live and how well you retain your youthful vigor and r&c tiltles and capacity to lead a use ful and happy life depends almost entirely upon your Individual con ception of how to live, whether, -you choose to follow the ways of health. The preceding talk opened with some morbid statistics only out of 136 overweight adults whose hearts were carefully studied P. M. (after they were thru with 'em) had at tained the age of 70 years, and the average of the heedless ones naa been 62.1 years. But I always en deavor to Inject a cheerful note somewhere, so the talk closed with the happy euggpstlon that, besides an annual physical examination, ev ery one over thirty yeara or age ought to try and run a mile each birthday. Of course there are other forms of effort equivalent to a mile run U you're afraid the neighbors will think you're nuts, but we can't stop now to define substitute tests. The Idea of this mile run as a birthday celebratlo nls to prove to yourself that you still are as good a man or woman as you were when you were In your prime. If you can last a full mile Jog trot or any gait you like long aa it is a run, you may throw your weight about among the i best of 'em. for you are surely fit and there's nothing whatever the matter with your circulation. How ever, do not feel discouraged If you find yourself winded before you reach the quarter mile post. Just take it eafly and keep your chin In. YOU CAN'T KUN A MILE TODAY? Your cue la to do. aay, a quarter mile or perhaps a bit less. In the dally. Inside of a month you'll be dally. Inlslde of a month you'll go sailing past the old quarter mile post In fine fettle, for no doubt that ailed you was flabblnesa of the right ventricle (that's the side ot the heart which pumps the venous blood thru the lungs for oxygena tion) flabblness with maybe touch of fattey infiltration, from disuse. A few weeks of intelligent training will do wonders for you, Not merely restore your wind, make you more capable to fight or t run away as the exigency may re quire, but you will be distinctly in vigorated in spirit too, for there Is no question that physical fitness gives man or woman more character, poise and personality, more self respect and real dignity. ff It la not practicable to train running, then at least do some kind of regular dally calisthenics at home, such as The iJist Brady Symphony (booklet for ten cents coin and stamped envelope bearing your ad dress) or any system of varied ex ercise you prefer.
