BE The Many -Sided Lincoln BBAHAM LINCOLN whose birthday in commemorated to day, waa a many-sided and in some way a complex character. So much o that the student of his life might take isolated facta and statementa divorced from the context, to shp port almost any thesis, political, theological or moral, Because Lincoln wag the first Republican president, the inspiration if not th- actual founder of that party, he has been appropriated by that party, just as Jefferson and Jackson have been appropriated by the Democratic party, and tonight in Med ford, Portland and throughout the land, Lincoln Day banquets are being held just as a few weeks ago Jackson Day banquets were being held, in both cases the occasion for considerable partisan hand-clapping, back-slapping, and self-ndulation, pointing with pride to the principles and achievements of one party, viewing with alarm, the dangers and menace of the opposition. All of which is to be expected, and adds more or less to the flavor of the Human Comedy. The members of the Republican party certainly have reason to be proud of their first president (in the opinion of the present writer, the greatest American who ever lived), and the members of the Democratic party have equal reason to be proud of their two outstanding president!?, so it is perfectly proper and nutural, the birthdays of their great leaders, should be the occasion of enthusiastic party celebra tions, of a somewhat partisan nature. IT is, however, rather more difficult with Abraham Lincoln, as above stated, he was such a complex and many-sided charac ter, there were so many different facets to his nature his appeal was so far from partisan, so inclusive, it seems somehow an injustice to try to make him serve only one. Take the attitude of the Portland Journal, for example. The Journal resents any effort to "bound Lincoln, by any sectional or party lines", and maintains he doesn't belong to the Republi can party or any other party, but to the ages. 'Which is true enough, but then the Journal proceeds to spoil it all by trying to appropriate Lincoln on behalf of the DEMOCRATIC party! We quote: .

In govern-' ment had long lain dead and disdained. In fact, It I. Lincoln urm In th. Roosevelt administration that big chiefs In the Republican party, th. Liberty Leaguer, and the Fat Boys In the east, are denouncing aa "unconstitutional." , Now no doubt there is basis for that deduction, but it is nevertheless not cricket it 'a hitting below the belt. If the Journal resents the Republicans appropriating the Great Emancipator, and claims him for the ages and all man kind, it should keep hands off as far as the Democrats or if one must be meticulous, the Roosevelt administration and the New Dealers, are concerned. Certainly if the party that elected and supported him uan't claim him, the party that spumed and fought him to his grave, should not. be allowed to do sol But the incident .only demonstrates again the universality of the Lincoln appeal, the many sided features of his character and life. TIIKRE is another thing that has always interested us about Lincoln, his tolerance and moderation. For two terms he was a war president, in the bitterest internecine struggle, this country has ever seen (or let. us hope ever will see) j ha was the ontstsnding champion of the anti-slavery forces when the coun try was divided into two struggling factions, over an issue the settlement of which could only be decided by force; and yet one might say, he never lost his temper, he never lost his sense of humor, even more remarkable in the darkest, days of the rebellion he never lost his sense of fair play and justice. Lincoln started in the middle of the road, he never stepped out. He was assailed by the extremists on both sides, he never lost his poise, never abandoned that amazing sense of propor tion. With every provocation, with the south already in arms, that first inaugural was throughout a counsel of kindliness, fairness and conciliation. He had to fight the violent slave holders one one side, he had no less to contend with the violent abolitionists on the other. For over two years he was urged to free the slaves by many of his closest advisers, he only issued the emancipation proclamation when tha maintenance of the union, appeared to depend upon it. Had he lived through the reconstruction period, there is no doubt his wise and concilia tory policy would have prevented one of the most regrettable and shameful perio.lt in American history; and it is also certain, that in the maintenance of that policy he would have had to suffer the condemnation and bitter attacks of the super-patriots and professional flag wavers in the north, who wanted to hang Jeff Davis on a sour apple tree, just as Lloyd George, after tin world war, wanted to hang the Ksiscr. Nor was it the tolerance of weakness, but. the tolerance of strength, the vision to see human problems and values in their true light; the courage to stand by those principles which he knew, had to be upheld, if the best welfare of the people of this country, all the people, was to be served. A (iRKAT man, a wonderful man, a many-sided man, a com- plcx man. In one sense a mystic, in another a supreme realist; a dreamer on one hand, a man of action on the other; a wit and a tavern wag; a man of deepest melancholy and sor rows; a man of kindliness, true brotherhood and peace; yet once in a fight a "courageous and relentless foe. A president with malice toward none, charity for all, who could plead for forgiveness and understanding even for his foes, and also a president who could say: "Yet if liod wills it the war) to con tinue until all the wealth piled by the bondsman's two hundred and fifty years of unrequited toil shall be sunk and until every drop of blood drawn with the lash shall be paid by anoth- r drawn by the sword, as uaa said three thousand years aco so still it mut be said the judgments of the Lord are as true and righteous alloKi-lherr' A deeply religions man but not a church man. and so one mij;ht go on forever, for the field is inexhaustible.

Beverly Hills, CsL ENORMOUS DOSES OF VITAMIN D FOR CHRONIC ARTHRITIS Th high concantratioiii of vitamin D vhloh la now uaed with marked benefit In the treatment of long standing arthrltla cannot be obtained In any. food ma terial, not even In flan liver oil. So Invalids who receive thla treat ment mint de pend on one of tne several syn thetic prep axa tlona which the m a n u t a cturers supply t h rough physicians. The treatment atarta off with no lean than 300.000 units of vitamin D dally, and thla muat be kept up every day for weeks and months; In some oases the dally dose must be stepped up to 400.000 or 600,000 units, and sometimes the bwt reAUlta may require from 600. 000 up to 1,000,000 units daily for a few days, then continued for weeks on an average of 300,000 units of D dally. Signs of Improvement, such as less ened pain. Improvement In mobility, reduction of swelling, general im provement In health, better circula tion, may be noted In from a week to six months. In any case, If the treatment Is started, the patient should stick to It and not vry from the doRAge prescribed by the phy sician for at least a month. If In that time no definite Improvement Is apparent, then It Is up to the phy sician to Increase the dose of vita min D. The Increased dally doae should be continued until improve ment Is felt, or manifestations of overdosage appear. What these man ifestations are la a matter best left to the Judgment of the physician. All the technical Information Is avail able to physicians only. Victims of chronic arthritis who have been subject to hay fever, asth ma, recurring hives, or other allergic conditions, seem to respond particu larly well to the treatment. Patients tolerate the necessarily enormous dally doses of vitamin D better If they receive also fair dally rations of B, O and A, for Instance In the form of the optimal vitamin ration I have harped on for the past year or two. Unfortunately for many arthrltla sufferers, the various vitamin D con centrate which have been available for this treatment are extremely ex pensive, the medicine costing from two to four dollars a day. depending on the number of units required NEW YORK DAY BY DAY By O.

And the treatment has not had a fair trial unless the dosage has been kept up or Judiciously step ped up until either definite Improve ment or toxic symptoms occur, whether In two weeks or six months.

Comment the on Day's News By FRANK JENKINS TWO Southern Calif or nlans and families with whom the writer re cently talked have Just returned from trip through California, Arizona and Northern Mexico In the course of which they saw a lot of fascinating country and found a lot of warm and plasant weather here In midwinter. They are glad to be back home, but are still remembering the good times they had esepecially during a week spent In fishing In the Gulf of California. e4 HPHEY were fishing for totauva big fellows, weighing from 100 to 300 pounds, and they say that when you get one of those boys on the end of a line you know you've got something. It must have been a typical fishing spot. At any rate, when they arrived they were told that If they'd got there Just a week sooner they'd have hit grand .fishing, but at that particular moment It wasn't so hot the to tauva had moved away from the vi cinity, or something. It's always that way when you go fishing they were biting hard Just the WEEK BEFORE. " THE way they fish for these totauva Is Interesting. They go out in a boat (the boat being manned by Mexicans) and cruise around until they locate a school of sardines, which Is done by watching the murres and the gulls, which feed on the sardines. (The totauva, also, feed on the sar dines. Just about EVERYTHING preys on the sardines. The sardine seems to be Just about as bad off down there as the poor devil of a tax payer up In this country). When they see the murres and the gulls flapping and squalling and div ing over a particular patch of water, they know where to go to work. WHEN a school of sardines is spot ted, they cruise into It and the Mexican boatmen toss a stick of dy namnlte out Into the water. The dy namite goes off with a beautiful bang, stunning sardines for yards and yards around. They then throw In their baited hooks, and when the to tauva come up to swallow the stun ned sardines they get them. These totauva, you see, are a tot like greedy people. When they think they see some easy picking, they go after It hard and GET HOOKED. THE totauva is a fine food fish, and the catch is marketed principally In Southern California. Iced trucks transport the fish to market. The Mexican fishermen earn about 35 pesos a day, when the fishing Is fairly good. The present value of the peso Is about 38 cents American, but a peso down there will buy about as much as a dollar here. So these fishermen do pretty well by themselves. THE fish are cleaned on the beach and loaded Into the trurks. After the day's catch Is cleaned, the offal Is eaten by the dogs and the Serl In dians, who come in from the sur rounding bush. It takes a keen observer to tell the Sorl Indians from the dogs. - THEY reached the Gulf of Califor nia by way of Nog ales and Her mosllla. Between these two points there Is a good road, which at one point Is perfectly straight for 48 miles. They had a native son of Southern California In the party, and he actually admitted that thla is a longer tangent than can be found, In the Oolden State. Miracles, you see. still occur. IT WAS a fine trip and they en joyed It thoroughly, but came back wholly convinced that the Unit ed States la a GRAND place to be living. In spite of all the pessimists say. One of the great benefits of travel Is that It proves to us that our own country Is a great place; Its people better off, on the average, than the people of any other country. It's a pity more of us can't get away oftener. (Continued From Page One ) I known), the Pan-American peace J movement may get inder way with s I good murder.
