Editorial Correspondence EUGENE, Ore., Jan. 18. Another state editorial conference hag come and gone. Thanks to an improved economic condition, and Dean Allen of the School of Journalism, ably assisted by Arne Rea, secretary of the State Editorial association, who arranged a program rather more varied and interesting than usual; there wag a large attendance, and a general spirit of enthusiasm and good feeling prevailed. Also thanka to the above, named gentlemen, the present writer who a year ago was elected president of the conference, and had to preside over its deliberations, got through the trying ordeal without jamming the controls entirely and putting the entire affair into a tailspin. There were a number of close calls. But notes shoved tinder the presidential nose at the right time, tactful motions from the floor or from the side lines, (the for mer parliamentary; the latter muscular, of the semaphore type, usually from the ante room door), paved the way for the routine and, as far as known, prevented any major casualties. a e Not only was the program vsried and interesting, but it was well constructed from a dramatic standpoint. It started out slowly and quietly, gradually gained momentum, and proceeded steadily to the proper climax, the final session being by all odds the best of the conference. Herb Grey, advertising man ager of the Mail Tribune, started this final session off with an extremely informative and interesting paper on "service sells spacf" followed up by a timely and stimulating talk on radio in the smaller city newspapers and the future of television by Harris Ellsworth, editor of the Roseburg Review and Hugh Rail, editor of the Hood River News, respectively. The boys and girls'from the school of journalism were all busy taking notes while Herb explained his advertising policies and theoriea, and afterward copies of his address were in great demand. The proof of the pudding is in the eating, and as the Mail Tribune has one of the best advertising records in the state, particularly in the local field, there was a universal desire to find out how it was done, not only from the standpoint of the newspaper, but also from the standpoint of service, in get ting results for the advertiser. The annual banquet on Friday night wss also better than usuai because it was short, with no long winded speeches, and adjournment coming in time for all the editors to attend the basketball game between Oregon and 0. S. C. The Women's journalism fraternity, Theta Sijjma Thi, gave a clever and laughable dramatic stunt entitled "The Female Fizzle" depict ing a scene in the Fizzle news room, and the regular newspaper awards were made, whereupon everyone piled out and proceed ed to MeArthur Court. Had the game been mado to order it could not have been more exciting and thrilling from start to finish, with the place packed with over 7000 raving rooters and fans. It was not only neck and neck all the way, but the underdog won, which always puts an added punch in any athletic contest. And when that underdog was the University of Oregon, playing on the home grounds, of course the evening was PERFECT except for the 0. S. C. team and their small group of supporters. There was an added Interest for the southern Oregon delegation, because the stars of the Oregon team, and its new coach, were from the Ashland Normal. i Filing out we found that one of the spectators had died from excitement and weak heart It was no game for anyone with a weak heart to attend. (Incidentally these fatalities at college athletie contests, among spectators, appear to be increasing. It might be woll for anyone in doubt to have a heart examina tion before they decide to attend.) The conference as usual ended with' the luncheon at the men's dormitory, with Robert W. Lucas, editor of the Oregon Emerald, acting as toastmaster and a youthful and engaging Major Bowes. v The lads of the school of journalism assisted by a few of the young ladies put on the most original and clever stunt of I he conference, the high light being a paper on the Rise and Fall of Journalism by George Onllas of Portland. The retiring presi dent (Sie gloria transit muiidi I) sat among this undergradu ate grour, and we got almost as much entertainment from their conversation before their performance, as the performance itself. It took us back so quickly about 35 years, these kids were so full of life and health and energy and so SCARED TO DEATH I This lad Callas for example, couldn't cat a morsel of food, never made the attempt. If this stage fright had put him in a blue funk of course the spectacle would have been puthetio and hard on what followed, but it takes more than stage fright to put a good :nnn down, particularly when lie is good and YOUNG Callas couldn't eat, and was smart not to try, made no effort to disguise his nervousness, not only admit ted lie was terrified but laughed at it, and largely as a result of this attitude of mind, put on the performance of )is life in fact stole the show. His paper was briefly a travesty upon a serious after dinner speech, and his nervousness only gave an added touch of realism to the side splitting performance. His handling of a graph chart was a masterpiece of farce. If in a spirit, of vanity or bravado he had defied nature and filled his stomach with veal cutlets and mashed potatoes, no doubt the alert Major would have given him the gong. As it was Callas was the only one allowed to complete his performance. The same idea was followed by the entire east, elaborate prepara tions being msde for a long-winded speech and then just as the speaker had finished his preliminary remarks and was about to awing into high, bang went th gong I We have seen former stunts put on by the undergraduates in the school of journalism but this impressed us as by far the best, not only in the original idea but the clever and skillful way it was handled. These gridiron affairs are so apt to he full of false notes or forced humt;r, drag out too long but the swift pace and bounce of this "take off", never faltered or missed a beat. Incidentally the final act wai put on by Fred Colvig of Medford, who gave an impersonation of Napoleon's farewell address to his troops the gong being so timed that it provided a perfect spot for the final curtain, and the editors departed in great good humr R.

Now It Is th. opinion of phy sicians who have had th. largest . x p. r 1 ene In treating polio myelltla that the b a t treatment In any case Is Haolut. reat In bed from the eery onset of the Ill ness, plus physlolcglcsl rest of the muscle. Involved, by means of suit sble splint, or other supports ap plied by the physician. It la defi nitely harmful to permit the patient to move about or to move th pa tient unnecessarily In the early stage of th nines. Why, then', were the S patient, with nasopharyngitis rushed off to a hospital a. "polio myelitis" cases? Unqueatlonsbly be cause of populsr pollo-phobla or unreasoning fear of Infantile paraly sis. And who creates and builds up th pollo-phobla? Thos public health authorities nd physician, who ar. avid for publicity. They "dramatize" the Infantile paralyale scare Just as a health officer down south dramatlr the rabies scare- to keep the publlo conscious of the Importance of public health work and to assure sufficient annual ap propriations to carry on the work. Of eours It 1 comparatively harmless to rush a patient to hoa pltal when he has only acut enso- pharyngltls. But It u a nit extrava gant. Isn't it? Don't mind what I say about it. tho. I feel the same about th mad dog business. In fact I'm an agnos tic In reference to rabies In a man. So my point of view la not the orthodox one. Of th 448 presumptive cases of Infantile paralysis, 335 were cor rectly dlsgnosed, a th cours of the lllneas proved. I tell you. It takes a mighty fin physician to make a correct diagnosis of polio myelitis In the first few day. of the lllne&s before any pnralysls becomes manifest, even In time of epidemic when the physician is on the alert. Of the 448 patient, hurried to the hospital on auapldon, besides the 86 with only nasopharyngttta, 16 sctually had meningitis, 13 actually had acute meningitis.

Men with the combin ation to th treasury vaults say Mr. Coolldge did not suddenly become dis pleased. Nor was there any definite break on a definite policy. Rather, they noticed Mr. Coolldge month by month lately becoming more and mora depressed with the prospect of raising money to meet more and more expenditures. There la one new reason why the experts believe that Messrs. Roose velt and Morgenthau may safely raie th money In prospect. It la that the country Is no longer finicky on the money question. If recent polls of public opinion are sny Indication, the people are thinking and talking about spending, unemployment, farm relief, etc., but not about Inflation. In fact, the Inflationist bloc waa ao weak on the bonus In congress the other day that it was unable to put up even a good fight. Two years ego. Mr. Roosevelt hsd to trick them out of putting something over on bl;n (silver). The other leasons ar the same old ones which hare enabled the unpre cedented financing done so far. Tiie banks sre filled with money, have no plec to lend vast sums, except to the government. The Inside on the tax situation la aa clear as th imminence of unex pected spending. New dealers do not want any new taxes before election. If they can help It. They may have to Impose some excise taxes In connection with the new farm program, but they will hold until the last electoral vote Is count ed to delay the new generel tax legis lation which the current situation obvipusly demands. That la good po.l tlca. It Is equally clear where the new burden la going to fall when it does. There Is no more real revenue In the rich, because there ar so few rich. Nor la there much more to be gained from the poor, and everyone els, by sale and excise taxes. After all. the current state sales taxes are as much as that traffic will bear. There la only one place where the government can get such revenue as Is now being talked about That li In taxes on Incomes below 50.000. They will pay the bill No on hare la paying any attention to the new pressure campaign of the committee for the nation. The Idea prevalent on the ln.ld. her la that opening of the gold market would cause the price of gold to go down, not up. The resson why the agitation for re-opening of the domestic gold and silver market. Is not getting any where either la that such action might cause hoarding again. The current financial situation Is not yet ao set tled as to prevent a possible rush Into two such bsalc commodities, out of reapect to their fixed value, which. Incidentally, ha. not been entirely fixed during the last six years. The tight-lipped secretary of the treasury was conservative In his es timates to the senators. Tit. truth la he will probably hav. to raise a l it more than .5 0O0 00C.000 In new money during the neett seventeen months. He took a sub-bottom catlmat on the bonus and an uudiacloeed relief needa. Alao. he failed to figure In tht new farm prcgram. a possible farm tenant bill and a couple of billion dollars of other possible odds and ends. However, this does not alter hla financing chances materially. Nor doea the prcpect that he will have to do about 19 000 000 000 of refinanc ing in the nent 11 montha Refinanc ing Is eomparsuvely easy. But If the debt la not upward of H 000.000 000 before he geta through, a lot of lm-ortant silk hata will bt eaten around Washington. Venerable Chief Ot Piutes Passes BI-ANDINO. Utah. Jan. 31.
