Mr. Hoover's Comeback FAR be it from us to begrudge ex-President Hoover the joys of bis recent political resurrection. He bad a tough time as President, and a tougher time dur ing the subsequent campaign. He was beaten let us see, by an electoral vote of 472 to 59, and the present occupant of the White House was cbiefly responsible for it. . We can't blame Mr. Hoover for feeling a trifle sore at the man, and the political fate, that subjected him to such a devas tating humiliation, and his desire to get back at the forces, personal and political, that "done him in" is a perfectly natural one. He laughs best who laughs Inst. And the time for the former leader of the Republican party to laugh has come. That is what he is doing. May Robson's rejuvenation of Aunt Mary has nothing on hira. And it is pleasant as well as inspiriting to see, the once dour and dejected "sage of Palo Alto," now putting on with reverse English, a pretty good imitation of the role once so popular in Franklin D. Roosevelt's felcitious phraseology, the "HAPPT WARRIOR." FOR no one denies Mr. Hoover is enjoying himself. No one denies he is in a fighting mood. His cheeks are flushed with the glow of vitality and health, he walks abroad with a springy youthful step; and when after dining well, he advances to the microphone, it is with fire in his eye, Herbert is himself again ! Yes, the spectacle of the Hoover "come back" is a cheering one. No one not blinded by narrow partisanship', would deny the worst-beaten, and most unpopular President of recent times, had it coming to him. Turn about is fair playj and justice is no less justice, if it has a poetio tinge. If, as President, Herbert Hoover got less than his just desserts, what cause to complain, if as a private citizen and a potential candidate for the White HoiiRe again he should get MORK. That would only balance the scales. Moreover there is precedent for it. Grover Cleveland had his second blooming. 'Tear and THUS far so good. And when our 31st President, takes ad vantage of a Lincoln Day banquet, to lambast the Roose velt administration ami the New Deal, hip aud thigh; we have, in spite of this paper's strong. sympathies with both, no par ticular complaint to register. Moreover, we can agree with some things be says and not deny the validity of others. We approve of the elimination of personalities in this campaign, the concentration upon issues; we don't deny the present financial situation of the country is serious, that many features of the New Deal have been rendered ineffective by judicial decision, nor that there is too much un employment and .Tim Farley's political methods are frequently open to criticism. BUT, We do believe when former President Hoover makes the theme song of such a speech "confusion and fear," when throughout his remarks he returns and returns to this theme and closes on it, he s not only guilty of . rather poor sportsman ship, but what is more important (to his party at least), be is guilty of a serious political blunder. True, people have short memories. But not so short that they have forgotten the condition of "confusion and fear" which existed, when after struggling unsuccessfully to turn back the destructive tide of the depression for nearly three years, President Hoover retired from the White House and the man he now holds up as a failure, took his place. And what is more inevitable than, with Hoover speaking, this comparison should be madet "CONFUSION AND FEAR!" With banks falling like autumn leaves, with thousands of peo ple losing their all; with practically every business in the coun try operating in the red, and scores already forced to the wall; with confusion und fear so extreme that a former President of the Bank of England landing in New Tork, said, the cap italist system has pone I Imagine the skipper of tho ship of state at that period in our history, raising the note of confusion aud fear, to bring about the defeat of the man whom the American people by an overwhelming vote, chose to succeed him I GRANTING it has taken billions to dispel that fear, and more billions to bring a semblance of industrial and social order out of that confusion; how can ANYONE, fairly and accurately, compare the conditions existing in this country to day, and the conditions at the close of the Hoover administra tion, and not admit that RELATIVELY spesking, there is today no fear and confusion EXISTING. True, some of the Big Business men are alarmed. So are some of the big bankers and G. 0. P. politicians. They see all sorts of things ahead, from printing press money to the hoist iug of Al Smith's red flag over the White House. But how about the others, the rank and file, the people of this country AS A WHOLE!" And we don't mean, in any "CLASS" sense. We mean ALL classes, except these few thin skinned big boys, best repre sented by the well upholstered minions of the Liberty League, and their ilk. How about the workers and the farmers; how about the artisans and the clerks, the doctors and the lawyers; yes, and how about the capitalists, not on Wall Street, but here, there and everywhere, bankers, business men and what have you, for most of us are capitalists in one way or another. Are they scared to death and paralyzed with aUrru, becane of the sorry pass to which Roosevelt and the New Deal have brought them! Are they! Ask thoin. Go out on the street and buttonhole the first man or woman you see, and ask him or her if they are as fearful and confused now as they were iu March, and whether or not they would like to go back to that time! And yet, as ion;: as former President Hoover leads the attack upon President Roosevelt that will be a natural ques tion, an inevitable question, and a perfectly proper one. No, if the Ucpul'lican party must raise the cry of "con fusion and fear," in an effort to beat Roosevelt, let them at least have the good sense to put those word in the mouth ol someone OTHER than the President who cave this country the worst siege of that ailmeut iu its history I Confusion Personal Health Service By William Brady, M D Signed letters pertaining to personal health and Hygiene not to disease diagnosis or treatment will be answered by Dr. Brady If a stamped self-addressed envelope Is enclosed.

The New International proved ft tremendous d la- appointment when the second edition came out last year. It atlll defined somer aault aa ft leap or Jump In which one turns heela over head, and, as though that were not enough, the cantankerous old Dr. Webster goes ' out of his way to specify "wlthou touching the ground with any portion of the body." Now I'd rather be robbed of any hundred books In my library than be deprived for ft day of my Webster. Nevertheless the editors of the dic tionary muffed that one badly; what they described aa & somersault It, of course, an air spring. That ex plains why they had to omit air spring from the book altogether they were plumb stumped to define It, without appearing to be kidding themselves. I shall worry along somehow with this 1035 edition of Webster at my left elbow, but now that I have called the matter to the attention of some millions of people and the two hundred odd, very odd, editors of the largest volume in the world, I do hope that when the third edition Is perpetrated the boys will get somersaults straightened out and If possible find a place they can squeeze in the cri somewhere. Then when I'm through with my pipes and my bowls I'll take along my copy, and when old Pete asks for my credentials I need only turn to Chap ter C and indicate my contribution. I expect It will do the trick, for you know I carry my own harp; and be sides, I am on honest G.P. for four years In Penn Yan and fairly honest for fourteen more In Elmtra. !

Six years ago he stepped from the obscurity of a small time book- 1 n a navnev to lSSfFI revolutionize the formula of mus ical revues wltfi "The Band Wftfc on." featuring the Astatres. The hesd-wag- j gra called him a ua-nn in one pan. But Oordon con founded them by growing more ambitious, mors art 1st to each Mason.

So fascinated was Coward with this shy, utmost inarticulate fel low, with such a passion for the stage, they talked until 9 a. m. And Oordon produced Coward's next play in New York. This season he has produced the two most significant plays, Jane Aus tin's "Pride and Prejudice." and Mrs. Wrahton'a "Ethan Frome. Last sea son he proved he could be even more spectacular than Zlegfeld with "The Oreat Waltz." A genius without guile, he still lunches at drug stores and smokes nickel cigars. Esquire hss been bucking a tem perature over an anonymous scrib bler who has been trying to impress the editors he is the guy to take the place of their drama critic. J. V. A. Weaver, resigned. And the editors think so. too, but they cannot find him. He sends In most tantalizing paragraph of comment and observ ations with a dar-you-to-hlreme taunt.

Some time ago we had a symposium on somersaults, in which readers contributed their experiences their ages ranged from 27 years to 80 years.

From the symposium I gather these indications for somer saults: Poor circulation, cold feet, functional difficulties of young wo men, sallow complexion, Intestinal stasis, flatulence, "gas," sad outloot or the blues.

Its purpose Is promotion of tourist traffic In this area, which includes soma of the finest outdoor country In Amer ica. : After four years of vigorous and In telligently directed effort, this ques tion arises: Has It paid? HHHESE four yearshave been depres- slon years, with people generally seeking in every way possible to cut down expenditures in order to keep outgo within the limits of shrinking incomes. Yet, in every year of the four, more automobiles have entered the Won derland area than entered It the year before, and in 1935, with the depres sion beginning to lighten EIGHTY THOUSAND more came than in 1934. LAST year (1935) 16 auto camps re ported to Tom Stanley, secretary of the Wonderland association, on the state of their business. Of the 10, 10 reported an average gain of 18.4 per cent. Four reported their business the same as the pre ceding year, and two reported a de crease. The 16 spent an average of 3 per cent of their gross Income for adver tising. FORTY-FOUR garages reported to Mr. Stanley, and of the 44 a total of 36 reported an average Increase In business of 19.7 per cent over the year before. Seven reported business the same as tha preceding year, and one reported a 10 per cent decrease. EVERY ONE of the 44 bought new equipment In 1935. ' . OF 24 hotels in the Wonderland area reporting to Mr. Stanley, 30 showed an average Increase of 20 .8 per cent In their business the year before. Four reported business the , same. ! These 24 hotels spent an average of 3.8 per cent of gross Income for advertising. TWENTY-EIGHT resorts reported to headquarters of the association, and of the 28 an average increase in business of 35 per cent was reported by 20. Seven Indicated business was about , the same as the year before, and one reported a decrease of 3 per cent. IN THESE four y ara, the Shasta -Cascade Wonderland association has carried the name of this area far and wide over the country, bring ing It to the attention of thousands who never heard of It before which is an achievement of Importance. But the final proof of the pudding Is In the eating thereof, and the final proof of the value of any advertising campaign Is the amount of business It bringsfor bringing business Is advertising's Job. These figures indicate pretty clearly that advertising the Shasta -Cascade Wonderland has paid. ONE more set of figures: A total of 112 concerns affected by tourist business have reported to the assocttlon, and of these 90 show ed an Increase In business In 1935 and as a res tilt of this Increase 40 of them plan to make Improvements tn 1936 totaling 9280.000. These concerns represent about 30 per cent of the total in the Wonder land, and If their percentage holds good throughout the total approxi mately $1,000,000 will be spent in Im provements this year. BMknd (Continued from Page One.) ment. It was not right when the budget was drawn up last fall. They insert Mr. Roosevelt Is taking hold of this luue more enthusiastically than anything in new deal history. They promise a real effort, and not Just a political effort to establish a better campaign fro n ft. The change on the Inside has come, they say. within the past week. What wrought It Is clear. The bad reaction to f Arm and bonus taxes en coursired an economizing line of thought, but the growth of the Lan don campaign must not be and has not been overlooked Oownor Lan don'a thrift record has struck a pop ular chord. Nobody's word on the extent of the curtailment will be worth much, how er?r. until the savings are laid down officially on the dotted line. 5c da tor P'.ttman said tome sharp things about Japan out In Nevada before conrre opened. Upon his arrival hre thortly thereafter, he in d Seated he had been misquoted by the pre. T'ie speech he delivered In the sru- ate Moudaj u auut the same one m Ban he made In Nevada, with a few fancier trimmings. There will be no asser tion of misquotation this time. You may deduce that this Indicates Plttman must have spent the inter vening six weeks finding out what good speech he had msde In Ne vada. There Is more to the repeti tion than that. Pals on Capitol Hill say ha let the state department have four daya' ad vance notice of his speech and Its contents. The department made no effort to tone him down. Appar ently It shares some of the sena torial displeasure at certain unmen tloned Japanese propaganda circu lated recently In thia country by an able Japanese spokesman. To quiet this gentleman was one of the hid den purposes of the speech. Mr. Hoover'a frsnk court testimony about the necessity of Investors hedging against Inflation caused some uneasy moments among governmental financing authorities. But only a few. For the present their Inner situa tion is encouraging: the Inflationists In congress have been deflated. The outward movement of gold recently threw a scare into the Frazler-Lem-keyltes from which they are not due to recover before congress adjourns. Tins and the president's promitw of spending curtailments ha-e caused a. much better feeling all around. Treasury Secretary Morgenfahau did considerable casting about for a con servative under-sec re tary of treasur7. but found few eager applicants for that Job. Financing the new deal Is hardly one of the softer government positions. The Black committee has run into constitutional trouble trying to col lect answers to questionnaires from various business corporations. Pri vate attorneys have advised several corporations to resist, under the fourth amendment. There will be i peck of trouble about this when the committee starts hearings. Congressmen do not remember It but they passed a law In 1931 pre venting government officials from recommending new taxes. The stat ute specifically states that "no rec ommendations as to how the revenue needs of the government should be met shall be submitted to congress by any officer or employe of any de partment, unless at the request of either house of congress." Both J. P. Morgan and Mrs. Roose velt, tn their definitions of the leisure class, neglected to mention the 11. 000,000 unemployed. FRANK VAN DYKE OF (Continued from Page One.) county and city officials who were present. The meeting was opened with an invocation by the Rev. Joseph Knott after which O. W. Phetteplace re ported as chairman of the nominat ing committee. The offlcera recom mended by the committee were elected. The assemblage then listened to the radio address of Herbert Hoover, titular head of the Republican party, who spoke at a Lincoln banquet In Portland. Billy Wilson, high school student, recited Llncolns attysburg address and was commended by Mr, Van Dyke for his excellent delivery. F. Kramer Deuel, candidate for the Republican nomination for district attorney of Jackson county, gave an address on behalf of the Junior Re publican league, attacking the New Deal for Its "wasae and extravagance. During the evening the gathering waa entertained by Eleanor Curry, Oletha Olsen and Majorle Wymore, who sang three numbers. C, E. Ingalls, Corvallls newspapr editor, was the principal speaker, giv ing an address on "Lincoln, the Rug ged Individualist." Before giving bis address, however, Mr. Ingalls directed several barba at the Roosevelt admin istration. "I regard Hoover as the best quali fied man for the presidency thlb country has ever had.',' Mr. Ingalls said. 'To be sure, the Democrats blame Hoover for the depression but we all know the depression was caus ed by the war the Democrats kept us out of." With Incisive carcasm, Mr. Ingalls said : "The Democratic party may have been founded by Thomas Jef ferson but It has been dumfounded by President Roosevelt." "There are two classes of people In the country today," Mr. Ingalls con tinued. "The Indigent and the indig nant. Ths indigent are on relief and the indignant are paying for It." "During the past three years." Mr. Deuel said, "the government has no!, only consumed the entire revenue de rived from our excessively high taxes, but has in addition thereto Increased our national debt by some 15 blllir of dollars. Our national expendltu. have been such that we must expect high taxes fot many years to come: we will have to pay dearly for our spree." "We should, therefore. Immediately adopt ft policy of a balanced budget and a retrenchment of national ex penditures." Mr. Deuel continued. W canot go on spending more than wo take in. We must realize that we can not spend our way back to recovery No nation has ever dons this; no na tion ever win." The meeting was broupht to a close by the group singing of "America."

One of your readers sent me the clipping and I was very glad to have It brought to my attention. It seems to me entirely true that these decisions are sometimes very largely a question of temperament which leads to certain interpreta tions of the law. I was also much gratified with your attitude on the primaries, and know that it must have been helpful in securing the good vote against the measure. I was very much aur prised to find so little newspaper opposition to It, and that the news papers did not analyze the bill and understand its Importance from ft standpoint of party control by small groups and party domination of the political life of the state by prac tically ruling out Independent can didates. I waa very much Interested in this messure. It would have been highly advantageous to me, prob ably, to have had the September pri maries this year, but I could not bring myself to support auch a bill and I am thankful that the people of Oregon, through some combina tion of circumstance, saw fit to vote 1J down.
