' In other directions the vice president has established a repu tation for wisdom and common horse sense, far ahead of most of the president's official family. Therefore if he should say something for publication his words would have great weight with the American people, and if he gave any advice, there would probably be a genuine effort to follow it. Whereupon we suggest the vice president follow the ex ample of a former Democratic V. P., who attained imperishable fame by telling the country what it needed. ' The late Vice-President Marshall said it was a good five cent cigar. What does Mr. Garner think it ist JUST as a suggestion might we offer the following: The country needs, more than anything else, a PATRIOTIC MAJORITY. It needs a majority organization that could outvote any minority organization or any The members of this majority would be interested NOT in what they could get out of their government, but what they could GIVE it; NOT what would be best for their special group, but what would be best for the COUNTRY AS A WHOLE. And they would be willing to fight for such things, during times of peace, just as whole-heartedly and unselfishly, as they would fight for other things in time of war, in both instances seeking no reward, monetary or otherwise, seeking nothing in fact, but the satisfaction of work well done, of useful and patriotic service. IJOR after all, we the people, get just the sort of government we deserve. If a majority of us care more for eur own selfish interests than for the interests of the country, as a whole, w e get a country that is cut up into self-interested and warring factions, with the national welfare neglected and forgotten. No one in a Democracy can expect a higher idealism and strong er devotion in public office, than is demanded by a majority of the people, i.e.. by public opinion. GENUINE patriotism is as much needed in time of peace, as in time of war. In a sense, more needed, for in time of war, forces are immediately released which arouso and stimulate it; whsreas in peace, the flag flying, the band playing,-and the hurrah-boys incitement is lacking. With the old people demanding one thing, the young people Ruother, and those in between something else, "give me give me give me! one wonders what is going to happen to this country of ours, with no one or practically no one who wants NOTHING but the growth, progress and welfare of his govern ment and his country. Of course Vice-President Garner could express the idea much better, and with his native wit and shrewdness cou)d no doubt compress it into the proper slogan. But that in the opinion of this paper, is in general what this country needs a PATRIOTIC MAJORITY, and needs it more acutely than in the piping times of post war prosperity, it ever needed a good five-uent cigar I The Last JUST as the college foe measure will be defeated unless the voters study the matter carefully, so will the bill, to provide the people of this state with an adequate system of old age pensions. In both cases the superficial reactiou will be unfavorable, just as in both cases, careful thought and examination, will inevitably lead to precisely the reverse conclusion. IN the sales tax pension mutter the question comes dpwn to this: Do we want an adequate old age pension system in this state, or don't wef If we do then hero is our chance, and our only chance for the immediate present to get it. That may sound like an extreme statement but it is the firm conviction of this newspaper, that it is absolutely true. OUR present system of old age pensions is a .farce and a disgrace. Not only are hundreds of elderly people who need pensions and deserve them not getting them, but many of them are not getting anything and are in dire want and distress. These conditions during the present year are bound to bo WORSE rather than better because the government which has awarded to Oregon for direct relief the past three years, over $'JS,OOO,0OO, will give NOTHING hereafter. Few people seem to realize Uncle Sam has gone out of the direct relief business. But that, is the hard and brutal fact. The elderly indigents will be the first to suffer as a result. The government has however adopted a minimum old age pension system, to be devoted to those states which cooperate with it, by passing an old age pension of their own. The passage of this measure would provide that cooperation as far as Oregon is concerned, and would give the elderly and needy people of this state what they need and deserve., not .luxury, but com fort and security, proper food and shelter in their declining years. T"0 "we the people" of Oregon want to give them that,' or do we want to dawdle and drift along as at present, dreaming of impossible Utopias on one hand, and on the othey handing out to only a selected minority, enough, let us say, to buy a couple of tiers of wood, perhaps once in six months! IT seems to this paper the time has come for Oregon to either fish or cut bait in this matter, either provide an adequate old age pension, or give up the idea entirely, and let Nature. and the undertaker, Like their respective and tragic courses. The chance to do something and something constructive will come up the last day of this month at the special election, and if this chance it patvit up, ar. l the pension meesurc defeated, then the eh'-rly p ople in 'diis state who rcBlly need help and need help NOW, might as well make up their minds they arc not going to get it. At least not during the present year and in all likelihood not for many years to come. Prry Return- KenniM-h 8.

Beverly Hills lal OPPOSING CONTEMPORARY On th fly-leaf of hit book "Nerv ou Indigestion" (Hoeber),. which I consider one ol the finest accessory boolui lu my li brary. Dr. Walter C. Alvarez quote Thomas Huxley as follows; "I hare not, now, nervous n e r g y enough for stomach and brain both, and if I work the Utter, not even the fresh breezes of this olaoe win Keep tne rormer in order." Evidently Huxley waa an Introspec tive person. No doubt a clas B neurotic. I think a large proportion of the near-invalid a for whom Dr. Alvarez's book was written, are in the B class. X bet old Hux could have written a moving chapter on "Tne Importance of Keeping the Bowels Active." Be that as It may, Huxley said some thing of medical education in 1870 which would be even more timely to day: "I entertain a very strong con viction that anyone who adds to med ical education one lota or tittle be yond what Is absolutely necessary Is aullty of a ry grave offence." Hux ley was an advocate of the Introduc tion of physiology Into elementary education, and speaking of that he got off a good one: "The saying that a little knowledge Is dangerous :s, to my mind, a very dangerous adage . . . Indeed. If a little knowledge Is dangerous, where la the man who has so much as to be out of danger?" ' Here I am. In certain respects I have so much knowledge that I am out of danger of things which you wiseacre laymen must necessarily fear. For example, what happens If the bo we la fall to work as you think they should. , Not In his book, but elsewhere. Dr. Alvarez recently blurted this half baked view: "Even the physician with a very large practice will see only a few cases a year In which he will suepect that the symptoms are due to too great a narrowing of a diet." ((This refers to vitamin deficiency ) Dr. Henry C. Sherman's books con tain much that Dr. Walter C. Alvarez does not yet know about vitamins and nutrition. Dr. Sherman says on p. 400, 4th edition, Chemistry of rood and Nutrition, "... It should pe haps be said at this point that when Goldberger concluded that 'latent pel lagra la common amotii, children he may have been referring to a condi tion In which the children receive diets sdequate to prevent the devel opment of any specific symptom of NEW YORK DAY BY DAY By O.

Such a condition of affairs probably does occur often; partly because the Importance of vita min O In nutrition and Its very un even distribution among staple ar ticles of food are not yet matters of common knowledge; and partly be cause some of those who do know about vitamin O may not :ully ap predate the fact that (a in the case of vitamin A)' Its optimal amount means a far more Uberal Intake (per haps many-fold more liberal) than the minimum requirement for the prevention of obvious or manifest nutritional deficiency." The trouble with too many phy sicians "with very large practice" Is they are not Interested In health, but only In the manifestations of disease, QUESTION'S AND ANSWERS Chicken Jelly. Kindly advise food value of Juice or Jelly made by boiling chickens' feet and bones In water . , . (Mrs. J. O.) Answer Prom the bones, the Jelly or Juice so made la chiefly gelatin, which Is of questionable nutritive value, though It property serves as a protein sparer to a limited degree tltat is, tne gelatin la utilized aa fuel by the body In place of protein. Chicken Jelly made by chopping a chicken, bones and all, and slowly coking, Is both nourishing and pal atable. Gelatin Is an Incomplete pro tein, looks certain amino acids which sre essential for assimilation by the body. Pure gelatin, as marketed for food. Is valuable for bulk and as an ingredient of various dishes, especial ly where it Is desired to keep the diet low In calories. Cataract. Is there any cure for cataract ex cept oper&tion? . . . (C. E.

Hero's betting you chuckled as you read It. For some reason, wicked weather In the OTHER FELLOW'S country always gives us a smug, self satisfied feeling. TTHIS headline Is political lntense- ly ro: "Political Pot Bolls Mer rily In Both Camps; Smith and Borah in Limelight." Aa to Smith, a New York dispatch says: "Alfred E. Smith today char acterized as FALSE what he said was a statement by a White House spokes man that 'at least once a year Mr. Smith has been Invited to pass either a nlht or a week end there, but he never saw fit to accept even one of these Invitations ' Al says he never had but one bid, and he accepted that. f WHAT does it alt mean? Well, It means factional 111 feeling In the Democratic party. Republicans know all about that, for In the years they were IN they had a lot of It. Now there Isn't much to stir up Republican factional feeling about. It's the Ins who step on ach other's toes. AS TO Borah, a Washington dls patch Informs us: "Complete authorization was given today by Senator Borah to put his name tn the Ohio presidential pri mary." A few days ago. Senator Borah was dabbling his toes In the political waters. Now he seems ready to plunge In. Evidently he found the tempera ture congenial. ALSO as to Borah, the Oregon Vot er, edited by C. C. Chapman, says : "If Senator Borah Is nominated by the Republicans, and there la no third-party nomination such as will enable us to save our self-respect, we will vote for the re-election of Frank lin D. Roosevelt." TJOW many Republicans feel that I. X way about It? If there are enough of them, we might as well resign ourselves now to four years more of the New Deal for Borah is AT PRESENT (ajthough he may not be by next summer, when the " convention Is held) the leading contender for the Reptibllcan nomi nation.

To give you a further hint of the Intensity of the underlying situation: A certain mid-west Republican congressman felt constrained to an nounce some weeks back that he would vote for the Townsend plan. What constrained him was the spe cial election In Michigan. At least he made his announcement about that time, following a shower of pro Townsend letters from his own con stituents. Since then, the an tl -Townsend citi zens of his district have been shout ing at him through the malls. Thsy were not organ 1 red. and he did not know there were so many of them. This legislative gentleman Is there fore now constrained to deny that he was ever really for the Townsend plan He Is saying he merely agreed to vote for it In the house "so it could go to the senate for a thorough dis cussion There will be more of that. Even now. many congressmen have coyly hoisted their saliva-tipped fin sera to find out which way this Townsend breere is going. This is why Dr. Townsend's poll of congress has not progressed more swiftly. His Inquisitive letter haa been put on the bottom of the pile of unanswered mail on many a congressional desk. The clever Townsend pressure bojs apparently have found that out. and have nwde a list of tardy respond Shooting' Match Sunday AT PROVOLT Shotgun - Rifle Pot Lucks Lunch Served I A&fe I ent. At least, mall bags of threats i and abuse have been raining on the I tardy ones lately. Most of the quick-Jumpers have al ' ready made up their minds. A sena- tor who fled from his mid-western home a few weeks ago In the face of the Townsend storm, recently turned and faced It with a public statement. Such reasonable analytical speeches as that of Congressman Lea of Cali fornia (at Chloo. December 13) are having an effect. Another Juicy morsel la the Bank head billion-dollar farm tenant bill. That would help a lot of congress men In spots down south where the Talmadge and the Huey Long hang over groups are making trouble. At least this la strong consideration behind It. The bill passed the sen ate last session, but got stuck In the house when Representative Bank head was 111 and at home. He la on Uie Job now. The Republicans are not overlook ing their campaign or-vm.ies. either. Republican Leader Snell has been talking up the economy Issue lately within his small flock. It is generally understood that they will take strong economy stand in the house, not exactly unmindful of the coming campaign. V.-P. Garner Is chipper and still wears, rubber heels. He la handling the session for the president, not In any way conflicting, of course, with the nominal leaders, who are his friends. It was Garner who once told a group of leaders, who inform ed him a certain cabinet officer was telling congressmen how the presi dent wanted them to vote: "Why, he's Just a boy. Give him a message to take back to the president and send him on his way." It was a congressional '.eader who thought up the Idea of having Mr. Roosevelt deliver his opening message to congress at night, so all could hear on the radio. Of course, he did not have the campaign In mind at all. NOTED SPEAKER Lieutenant C. V'.ncent Hall will speak to the Eveiyman's Bible class Sunday morning at 9:48.
