EJitorial Correspondence
PORTLAND, Jan. 20 It'g all in the wood. If one is in a
mood for excitement whoopee eolor-r-stimulation Portland
is apt to be disappointing. Or if a newspaper man is looking
for copy, the metropolis of the state of Oregon in likely, to be
poor pickings. Portland men, somehow are not disposed to run
around the streets biting dogs. But if one is in the mood for
relaxation, rest, peace and quiet, there is no city on the coast
that can surpass the soothing, soporific and salubrious village
sprawling over the wooded hills, and nestling along the shores
of the muddy and meandering Willamette. There isn t a shock
in a carload. Portland is todny, so emphatically, what if always
has been, and what it probably
it has and of course it will but
This has its Disadvantages of course, but it also has its advan
tages. As before Btated it all depends upon what one is looking
for upon the mood. Suffice
newspaper convention it fitted
and we are grateful.
There is the Portland hotel for example. Our first visit to
that comfortable and capacious refuge for the stranger, was
made over a quarter of a century
up the Morriion street entrance
stances were strikingly difterent and your correspondent
needless to say, had completelytfhanged but had the Portland
hotel? NOT A BIT OP IT.
There were the colored bell
perhaps not the same ones but
the desk we swear the same room cleric was standing there
were the same paintings on the walls, the same writing room,
the same telephone booths, yes and the same dining room, the
same colored carpets, the same chandeliers and same light and
attractive chairs, the only difference was that first visit, was
just after the morning train arrived from the east and the place
was crowded with breakfast being served, this visit, was at
three in the afternoon and on a
cally no one around.
But that was the only difference, not a difference in setting,
atmosphere or character, just a difference in time.
Is there any city on the coast, or in the country, where
one could enjoy such a delightful nostalgic experience as that,
except in Portland t Boston, Massachusetts perhaps if one
dropped into the old Parker House, but we don't believe any
where else.
And THAT is Portland I In this world which is changing so
rapidly and at times harshly, it is reassuring, to find something
that flatly refuses to change, and at the same time still eoes
on it shows such stability and tenacity yes and charm I
.
Not much charm in a walk down Front street, but stability
and tenacity there as well. It is like a journey into the past,
in fact strolling from the Morrison to the Burnside bridge, in
that deserted thoroughfare, we feK as if we had accidentally
struck some abandoned movie set of the early 90's down in
Hollywood. . Old office buildings, five and six stories high,
empty except perhaps for a tin shop or a fish market on the
first floor the old fashioned cornices, the stately but dilapidat
ed mansard roofs, names of the buildings up high, cut in the
dark 'gray-green weather beaten stone, (names of well known
pioneers no doubt long Bince gone), no life at all, but like an
old oak, dead at the heart but still standing externally at least
defying the ravages of time.
Had a Victoria with a bewhiskcrcd coachman on the box, or
a young blade in a long frock coat and a lady in a poke bonnet,
on his arm suddenly appeared, there would have been no sur
prise as far as we were concerned. As before stated it's all in
the mood. Perhaps for some reasoji, we were particularly im
pressionable at the time, but we doubt it we think it was
merely PORTLAND.
s
We did find some news, just, a little, The rain stopped ami
it cleared, actual sunshine in a bit of blue sky. If that in Port
land in the month of January isn't news, then what isf And
to date it has continued, with no use for coat or rubbers.
.
Also news, to-wit: The Oregonian and Journal are agreed on
a political question they both are fighting for the late primary
date in the state of Oregon tooth and nail and rarticulai'lv
the Journal.
One doesn't often find the Journal opposing the state grange
and organized labor. And less often do yon find the eminent
Mail Tribune agreeing with Messrs. Gill, Zimmerman, et al on
ANYTHING.
But we do oppose the change of the primary date because it
destroys the presidential primary entirely, and puts political
power back again into the hands of party bosses.
There was a time, we admit, when we would have favored
that, but with recent developments in this countrv and the
world, we have a renewed faith in Democracy, and a new deter
mination to see it not only retained but strengthened.
Fascism, Nazism, Communism let other countries experi
ment in those directions if they wish, but let this countrv stick
to democracy and put the power where it belongs in the' hands
of he rank and file the PEOPLE. The people will make
mistakes of course, but they will correct them too and throuch
the exercise of power through the years, they will by EXPERI
ENCE learn more and more wisdom in the use of it."
So we don't agree with the Oregonian or Journal, which will
be a great DISAPPOINTMENT to them when thev learn of it I

of Columbus,
managed to at
tain the age of
103 years and
wrote a book
about the Art of
Living Long. Cornaro's Ideas were
mostly sound, as we view the mat
ter today he counselled moderation
In eating and temperance In every
thing. Metchnlkoff conceived the theory
that tbe ripe old age which many
natives of the Balkans attained was
due to their fondness for soured or
fermented milk. He popularized the
practice of drinking skim milk (milk
from which the cream has been re
moved) which is first boiled five
minutes, then cooled to body tem
perature or thereabouts, then sowed
with a culture or "starter" of lactlo
bacilli, of the Bulgarian strain and
allowed to sour or ferment for a
while Metchnlkoff advised a pint a
day of this beverage, and he believed
It would maintain a vigorous growth
of lactic bacilli in the colon, which
Is a normal and desirable state, for
when there la vigorous lactlo bacillus
fermentation In the colon the field
la unfavorable for the activities of
less desirable or possibly harmful
germs' whose growth and multtpllca
tlon constitutes putrefaction. Met
chnlkoff himself died from heart dis
ease short of the scriptural three
score and ten years. Later a different
strain of lactlo bacilli, called Acido
philus bacilli, was Introduced and
milk beverages containing these
Acldophllls bacilli became popular.
However, It Is probable that plain
buttermilk or ordinary sour milk Is
as efficacious as any such artificial
lactlo bacillus medium, both as a
prophylactic and as a remedy, though
these natural foods or beverages do
not come with all the Impressive
hooey the wiseacres like.
Still later the ductless eland theory
of longevity or prolongation of youth
or rejuvenation captured the popu
lar Imagination, thanXs to the skill
ful play given this Idea by numerous
charlatans. Even I cannot attempt to

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Low Sugar Tolerance
Examination by (a corporation
practicing medicine without a li
cense) showed 0.3 per cent sugar n
urine and advised me to have my
teeth X-rayed . . . (H. O. L.)
Answer Unless you have more
faith In far-away "specialists" whom
you can't see, would It not be more
sensible to consult a physician at
home and be guided by bis advice?
A moderate deficiency of vltamlnB
may account for your low sugar tol
erance. A normal person should be
able to eat (or drink a solution of)
at least six ounces of sugar or glu
cose on an empty stomach without
excreting any - sugar tn the urine
within the next two or three hours,
as determined by tests at half -hourly
Intervals. If sugar appears In the
urine within an hour or two after
ingesting less than that quantity 4
carbohydrate In any form, that means
the sugar tolerance Is low, the sys
tem Is unable to metabolize or utilize
sugar as well as It should. It doe
not necessarily mean diabetes, how
ever, unless the proportion of sugar
In the blood rises above the normal
limit and remains constantly too
high. For detailed Information about

Comment
on the
Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
Q RESIDENT Roosevelt, speaking In
A New Jersey, says:
"If we can boondoggle our way
out of the depression, that word
(boondoggling) la going to be en
shrined in the hearts of the Amer
lean people for a long time."
. (Please note the use of the word
IP which, although It contains
only two letters, Is one of the most
Important words In the language) -
ilHAT la "boondoggling," anyway?
Tf Well, of course nobody knows
exactly, , except that It Is a term
of ridicule applied to the useless
fiddling around and monkey busi
ness that have characterized o
much of the new deal.
Hauling a pile of dirt from one
side of the road to the other, tor
example, and then hauling It back
again Just to provide work,
whether useful or not Is boondog-
HIRING hundreds of thousands
of government employees to do
things that DON'T NEED to be
done, that we can get along Just
as well WITHOUT as we can get
along WITH, Is boondoggling.
These needless government em
ployees, whose wages must be pala
out of taxation, create nothing use
ful, and so the burden of their
wages Is just a hindrance and
handicap on those who are LABOR
ING USEFULLY.
Boondoggling, you see. Is Just
that a hindrance and a handicap
JUST how do people get out oi
depressions?
By way of answering that ques
tion, let's ask another: If you fell
into a hole in the ground, such
as an old gravel pit, bow would
you go about getting out?
f-f
IF boondoggling would get you out, ,
you might sit down at the bot
tom of the pit and smoke a clg-,
arette and build a few play houses!
out of the larger pieces of gravel
and after that you might trot
around from one side of the pit to
the other In order to make your
self thing you were busy.
All this money business wouia
keep your time occupied, but lt
wouldn't keep you from getting
hungry or cold, and It wouldn't get
you OUT OF THE PIT. Only hard
climbing will do that.
Boondoggling won't get us out ot
the depression.
Keep AHEAD
of the JONESES
THERE'S just one way to be "better off" than the other
people on your street. ... In order to keep ahead, you
must think and act first. And that can be done by any
one who decides to do it. whatever the family income.
For instance, some people are smart enough to buy
things when prices are down. Right now, of course, you
can find sheets and towels and other supplies for the
house at lowest-this-year prices. And that isn't all . . .
Some time this winter you will find underwear for the
children, gloves for yourself, pajamas for the head of
the house and many, many more things offered at
'way-down prices.
All sorts of special buys will keep bobbing up, if you
watch the advertisements in this newspaper and keep
thinking ahead, and buying ahead.
Where will go get all the money, you ask? . . . Well,
it doesn't take MORE money to be better off, this way.
Actually it takes LESS. The pennies you save by time
ly buying add up to dollars in the end.
BOONDOGGLING CosU money. It
costs more than we can raiw
by taxation, so 1U cost has to be
added to WHAT WE OWE.
It is useless, and we get nothing
out of it. It Is Just like borrowing
money at the bank to buy your
self a pink elephant to keep in
your back yard.
When It came time to pay back
the loan at the bank, the pUk
elephant in your back yard would
not be much help.
Neither will the boondoggling.

An outstanding new deal official
was philosophizing among friends the
other day about the personnel weak
ness of Mr Roosevelt's administra
tion and the burden It has put on
the president personally. Said he:
"The jrlgl&al basic purposes of NRA
and AAA could have been written
constitutionally. The grouping of the
larger Industries to stagger employ
ment? ano eliminate such things as
child labor and oppressive hours
would have been constitutional, if
composed by men of the legal cali
ber of Chief Justice Hughes or John
W. Davis Also, they could have writ,

"The jxtra failure of the NRA waa

"Think of what would have hap
pened If that bureau ould have
been administered by Al Smith, Ches
ter Davis, Mr. Hoover; or even Mr.
Roosevelt himself
In depression d'.-pths, the then
President Hoover once mourned that
what the nation needed was a song.
He suggested It to George M. Cohan,
who wrote om. Somehow. It never
caught on.
