The news boyg are running all over the street with paper plastered with double line banners "Nazi troops occupy the Rhineland; War threatens Europe!" It's just another cry of "wolf, wolf" as far as the people are concerned. Many crane their necks to read the headlines. Few buy. When and if another war in Europe breaks out it will probably come in some such fashion waging war first, declaring war afterward. But in all proba bility it will be started by airplanes not by troops on the ground. This much is certain and has been for a long time. Unless the nations of Europe somehow check their hatreds, they will be destroyed by them. It's only a question of. time. . And Breaking of hatreds that is the disease from which the agitators over in Pershing Square are suffering. How they talk, talk, talk, the talk "goes round and round and conies out" NOWHERE ! But the basis of it all is hatred of some thing, in general terms hatred of those more fortunate than they. The more we see of these windjammers, the less patience we have with them. "The government's all wrong, the system is all wrong, everything is all wrong," and how they love to prate about it, bandying about such terms as the machine aite, unearned increment, the exploiting class, the dictatorship of the plutocrats and what have you I . Half of them don't know the meaning of the terms they use. And their complaint when boiled down to the essentials merely demonstrates they possess, in an exaggerated form, the traits they accuse that crowd over in the Biltmore across the street of possessing. How they love to shake their unwashed fists at the Biltmore. Yet if we were in real distress we would take our chance with the white collar boys over in the Biltmore, rather than these alleged champions of the downtrodden under the palms in Pershing Square. For sheer selfishness, avarice, cupid ity, intolerance, the passion for profit, and power, these soap box agitators, would make the late Jay Gould, look like Ma hatma Gandhi. They Bre a bad lot. Not all of them, some are mere freaks, nuts, harmless cranks, who like to hear them selves talk. But the professional agitators among them, they, are no better than criminals at hearts, they want trouble, are trying to stir up trouble, with one dominant purpose, so they can get theirs while the getting is good, that's all. They curse out the pirates and crooks of Wall Street; and their own mo tives are predacious and their methods unprincipled. A good drama could be built up on this world agitator and gangster, of all Russia. Many years ago there was a ame popular in England called Beaver. We arc a bit hazy on the details but if we remember correctly it consisted in picking out whiskered gentlemen along the right of way, and yelling Beaver. The one getting the most beavers, won a glass of beer or SOMETHING. That wouldn't work in Los Angeles today for whiskers are coming back. Last night at the Biltmore we saw Lionel Barry more, sporting a set. of whiskers, closely resembling those of the late King George. He looked very well too in his white tie and tails, the awards were being made for 1935 by flie Academy of Moving Pictures. In Hollywood whiskers are almost as fre quently encountered as wire-haired fox terriers which is bad news for the safety razor industry. No, Beaver wouldn't do. We have thought of a substitute however. Walk up Broad way in Los Angeles anytime between eleven in the morning and two in the afternoon and when you see a civilized face, not attractive, intelligent or refined just CIVILIZED, call out "Beaver." The person getting the most Beavers gets the coon cola. A score over three in three hours would be a record breaker I Shoes for $1.98, socks ten cents a dozen, dresses for $2.10 those are the signs you see on upper Broadway, and if these don't lure you perhaps the phonograph record enumerating the bargains, or the super salesman waving his arms, and invit ing you in, will. It is hard to walk along this section of Broad way without, running into such merchandise for a large section of the sidewalk is occupied by the retailers' stalls. And the pity is people who can't affoTd to waste any pennies are buying them. The shoes are made of paper, the socks of sweepings, the dresses of shoddy in reality the most extravagant, expensive line of merchandise anyone could buy. But bow the poor saps fall for them I Just another phase of one of the greatest sports in this metropolis-7-the flim-flam game,. . . . . No doubt about it if one sticks around Los Angeles long enough he has a chance of seeing most of the celebrities of the world. George Bernard Shaw and Nicholas Murray Butler of Columbia university were here yesterday. Thanks to a news paper tip we got our first glimpse of the former but missed out on the latter. After considerable pulling and hauling we got a clear view of the famous Irish wit and dramatist as he descended from his Pullman at the Santa Fe station, and hur ried to a waiting taxi oftb. Ruddy faced, loan, white whiskered, followed by a flock of black porters like a big game hunter on a South African safari, G. B. S. reminded one of a venerable billy gont in rather a bad humor. Just, when or how the news paper boys got a word with him remains a mystery. We have a pious idea they fell back upon the morgue and their vivid imaginations, for he had come and was gone before one could say Jack Robinson. At that it was hard pickings. The most extended report, we found in the afternoon papers merely re pented what Shaw had said about the U. S. constitution, ami that Or. Butler wouldn't do very well as a dealer in second hand motor ears, tho idea being the president of Columbia still put his faith in a Constitution thnt, was outmoded. Vince Biiriirtt, the film comedian and professional "ribber" was on hand, but missed out also. Now we learn from the Sunday morning Times that Vince later cornered Shaw and Mrs. Shaw in the Biltmore dining room, and posing as Timothy Glntzspiogcl, reporter for a Hollywood film paper, had a brisk but not very illuminating tete-a-tete with the Maestro. e Bette Pavis won the prire for her work in "r'angerons" and Elizabeth Bergner for far better work in ''Escape Me Never" only got honorable mention. Well, so it goes. Miss Pavis is far better looking in real life, than or. the screen, her face is less petulant and drawn, a most, engaging smile and a beautiful head of auburn hair. Perhaps the winning of the prire had something to do with it. P. S. Incidentally L. Barrymore'g whiskers were not real, hut a part of his movie make up, he brought with him from tho studio to the banquet. R W. R Grants Pass Has Boom In Building CHANTS PAJW. Ore..

The quirt Ion Is, how shs.ll you proceed? First of ill. It Is the bulk 0 site of the oody. not the weie'.i'L VJ you wish to snrinK. nanny no one carer much about th p 0 u n dage. You crave only girth control. It 1b Just a well that this 1' so. Any one who checks noay weight rather than measurements Is ilkeiy to be misled, especially by trie wales of the spring; type. Only a bal ance beam gives a reasonably 'iccur ttte check on weight; and that must balance perfectly when the guago ' at zero. Besides, the actual weight of a normal person varies two v three pounds at different times In the day and from day to day eve.' rt the same time of day. Little ad vantage In any circumstance' tn measuring weight oftener than one a week. The custom 01 taking as "Ideal" r 'normal" a body weight accordtng to age and height la still more mislead ing, for after all such an arbitrary " perfect" Is only the general average obtained from weighing thousands -ji Individuals. It does not allow for dif ferences In type of build, nor for dif ferences In the skeletal struct ire. :he . size of the bones, the relative length of trunk and limb, the depth of chest or the breadth of bony pel vis. These differences of foundation or ground plan must be considered In determining the form and size of the body. I Where most oversize Individual' fall In attempts to dwindle la In the haste with which they try to achieve the purpose, it Is possible, of c:ure by radical means, to shrink in bulk quite speedily, perhaps with such b ruptness as to startle and lUnn your friends and their alarm is like. Jy to be well founded. Such rapid melting away of superfluous flesh Is rarely Bafe and never actually health 'ul, I think. A sound lessening regi men should first of all tend to im prove general health. If It does not do ao. It Is probably not sc'entlfltal ly suited to your Individual require ments.

In 1935, which was last year. Indirect taxes accounted for 61 per cent of the federal government's revenue. AT this point, you may ask: 'Just what are Indirect taxes?" They are the taxes you pay WITH OUT KNOWING IT such as taxes on cigarettes, theater tickets, automo biles, etc. These taxes are added to the price of the article, and you pay every time you buy. (Direct taxes, of course, are those you know all about paying such as Income snd property taxes. They are painful in the extreme, and we com plain bitterly about them. We know Just how much they cost, and Just whst we'd do with the money if we didn't have to pay It to the tax col lector.) NDIRECT taxes, on the other han'j. are comparatively painless. Every time you buy a package of cigarettes, you pay six cent to the government, but It doesn't hurt you much, because it Is on'.y six cents. and besides you think of it as a part of the price of cigarettes. Every time you buy a new automo bile, you contribute something like 100 to government (more-or less, de pending on the price of your car) but you don't realize you are paying It, linking of It as a part of the price of tho car. It is the same with gaso line taxes. CIGARETTE taxes, gasoline taxes, theater and other amusement ticket taxes, automobile taxes, etc., are a definite tax, levied by govern ment and added to the price of the article. You can compute all of them, If you'll take the trouble. Bu In a larger sense, ALL taxes are ndded to the price of what you buy. because they arc a part of the cost of doing business and MUST be ad ded to the selling price or those who are engaged In ouslness will go broke. The higher the taxes the higher prices must be, and the higher prices are the less our money will buy. A LOT of us, whose direct taxes are fall Into the habit of thinking of money apent by government as man na from heaven that does everybody good and costs nobody anything. That isn't true. Taxes enter into the cost of everything we buy, and If taxes are too high PRICES will be too high. If prices are too high, wages can't go far enough. Travel By Plane Increasing Fast WASHTTKITON.

The unbelievable Hitler la letting word get around the diplomatic corps in Berlin that an "understanding" exist between the German and Jap anese general staffa. Whether the Nazlea are merly trying to frighten moBCow or whether such an "under standing" actually exists Is something our people would like to know. The Jittery reds have been con vinced for some time that a secret alliance exists between Japan and Germany. They think Hitler will at tack In the west Just as soon as the government lacked power to condemn the Soviet armed forces are actually organized at the present time with a view to meeting such a dual attack on both fronts. The understanding here Is that Hit ler will next build up Memel as the "cause celebre" for starting esstward whenever he decides to go. As soon as the army Is ready, you will prob ably hear wails from Berlin about the treatment of Germans In Memel. Lawyers thing ths New Dealers backed out of a slum clearance test before the supreme court because they had very good reason to expect an adverse decision. Last winter they filed a petition for review of a decision of a Louis ville federal Judge who held that the government laked power to condemn land for slum clearance. Then the petition was suddenly withdrawn from the supreme court bench. The announced explanation was the New Deal wanted to get a test in the cir cuit court of appeals first, but that sounded rsther hollow. The real pur pose was delay. Alter losing In the court of ap peals, the government then took the 'jase back to the supreme court. But when It wa about to be argued, the government attorney became ill. An-; other delay was arranged, and now the case has been withdrawn. The official explanation now is that the government la going to make states and cities buy bousing sites in the future. The unofficlsl one Is thst the New Deal wanted to avoid another court reverse in view of the political development of the constitu tional issue.

Use Tysmol for Relief Knife-like Jabs of pain in ths vicin ity of the shoulder blade are gener ally due to neuritis, brought on ty exposure to draughts or sudden changes of weather. In some cases there is stiffness or soreness in the muscles, making it difficult to raise the arm.
