MEDFORD MAIL, TK1BIWE. MEDFORD, OREGON. TTTUT?SP.T. MAUCH 12, 1936. PAGE SEVEN ) 0 Y J OLD PENUMONIA E ZiONDOK (CT) Medical science U within reach of a "truly rational treatment" of pnaumonla after being almost helpless for centuries agalnst tha high death toll of the disease, according to one of Great Britain's outstanding medical authorities. Dr. W. H. Wynn, professor of med icine at the University of Birming ham, aald that one of the most hope ful signs Is the rapidity with which "medieval remedies" ' are being shown to have no benefits. His observstlons were made In a recent Issue of the British Medical Journal. Pneumonia, he said, la the most widespread and fatal of the acute dtseaaea prevalent In civilized coun tries and, until the last two or three years, tta toll of lives Increased steadily while the toll of tubercu losis, typhoid fever, smallpox and scarlet fever dropped. "It would seem." he said, "that critical examination Is depriving us of several time-honored remedies, but we have the consolation that If our faith In oertaln remedies has proved false, yet. our means of preventing serlpus symptoms are ateadlly Im proving and we are within sight of a truly rational treatment of a disease which takes a heavy toll at all ages of the strong as well aa the weak." Dr. Wynrl said no drug Is known which has a specific action or ma terially influencea the progress o! pneumonia and aside from scien tific sntl-bscterla methoda and Im provements In nursing there has bierj bo real advance since the first in troduction of expectant treatment. "Much of our treatment" he added, "la traditional and has no rational foundation and the mortal ity, although varying ftm year tr. year, remains at about 30 per cent" The Birmingham professor Is an advocate of the vaccine treatment but urges the Importance of early Jlagnosta and prompt action, ex plaining that the fate of the patient la decided In the first 48 hours.

By ROBBIN COOKS HOLLYWOOD. Sometimes In Hol lywood only a marriage can make a divorce final, even when format part ing papers have been Issued and so. now that Douglas Fairbanks and Lady Ashley are wed at last, Mary Plckford has a divorce. She got her papers, those who still follow the entanglements of Holly wood's one-time "perfect romance will recall, last January. But that did not still recurring rumors of reconciliation with the globe-trotting actor who for 'nearly 15 years reigned with her at Plcklalr, filmland's erstwhile Buckingham pal ace. Mary did nothing to encourage the rumors, and neither 4id Doug. But the reports bobbed up now and then to flutter the hearts of those old time film fans who remember Mary's long golden curls and Doug's fence leaping prowess of a departed movie era. Mary Broadcasts at Plckfalr Hollywood keeps healing that Mary will marry Charles ("Buddy") Rogers, the actor-orchestra leader, who Is 10 years her Junior, and that Buddy, when, and If. they marry, will not llva at Plckfalr, the big white house on the hill.

I $g Jl fceJaj5aM'tjMSMMM Onoe the center of Hollywood's most publicized warm affection, Plckfalr lately has been the once -a-week scene of Producer - Writer - Actress Mary's broadcasts In the interest of old fashioned Ice. The place, however,' Is In Mary's name, which fairly precludes any pos sibility that Doug and his bride would return there to live, even If Mary be comes Mrs. Rogers and agrees to dwell elsewhere. May Go to Doug's Ranch Assuming that Doug will return to Hollywood with his bride to resume plans for his announced picture. "Marco Polo." the couple would have another home waiting Doug's 3000 acre ranch o near San Diego. Hollywood has never seen Lady Ash ley, but has known her well since the title of her musical play, "All the Town's Talking, 'assumed In retro spect a prophetic character. The former Sylvia Hawkes. dress maker's model who became a chorus girl in the London "Midnight Fol lies." broke Into print sensationally In 1927 when she married Lord .Ash ley, son of the Earl and Count of Shaftesbury, despite his parents' bit ter opposition. The young lord's par ents dashed by motor to London In an attempt to stop the wedding. EUGENE TEACHERS HOPE FOR PAY RESTORATION EUGENE. Ore., March 13.

O Your Dealer Has "OH Rogue" On Tap By the Case or In Bottles Menace of Communism Stressed by Banwell Tha following address on rommuii Ism was delivered March 11, by A. Banwell manager of the Jacltwn Count) Chamber of Commerce: Ordinarily, tn making a fOk to ai group such as this. I use no notes, but by virtue of the fact that the sunject I shall attempt to discuss today Is of a controversial nature, and to a certain extent outside of the territory of work embraced by the organisation X represent. I feel I ohould read from notes. I do not want you to misunder stand me. Z do not feel that any statement that I might make Is of surb importance that criticism may result. I am not that egotistical yet. bur because it haa become a favorite Indoor sport recently to crltlclr someone who leaves the realm of his own business to discuss a national sublect. I believe X am entitled to protect the Chamber of Commerce against any misquotation, so for thst rean my notes are available to any one. mere are many men In Medford more able than I to discuss the sub ject of Communism; but It baa In terested me greatly and I have been fortunate enough to be asked to dts cu& the subject before groups sucb as this during the past 13 months, many times. Many chambers of commerce and similar groups of business men have, during the past few months, been giving very serious consideration to subversive activities In the United States. Many of these organisations have submitted recommendations to their members, on this question of Communism. We believe that every cltlren should acquaint herself, or himself, with what Is going on along communistic lines. In view of the recorit wldespresd activities of Com munists In the United States, the ver foundation upon which this na tion Is built, and on which It nss prospered la being seriously threat ened Event of the past year not ablv the extent of communist par ticipation In fomenting and conduct ing a number of industrial strikes have given the nubject a genuine and substantial business slgnlflcence. Were our governmental Institutions to be destroyed or seriously Impaired th business consequences would oe of the first magnitude. Furthermore, when agitation for primarily political purposes extends to tne fomenting of Industrial unrest, sabotage, and the pivAoktng of general strikes, such subversive activities take on a real and Immediate Importance, In str.ctlv business sense. In other wcrds, here Is a very realistic bust net problem with which a Chamber of Commerce Is Ideally equipped to cope. The suppression and elimination of Communistic activities must have Its driving force In ths "grass-roots" of the country, In every community, ratner than in any centrauzea "Washington, D. C.M attempt. Con stant propaganda and continued re newed activity by Communist in America during recent years make It highly Important that citizens letld their support to any legislation which may be suggested to curb this ever Increasing curse and challenge to our American liberty. The Communist party waa organised In America In 1010, and Its mem berrhlp at that time consisted mostly of foreign-born workers. It wa, however, driven under cover by the government under wartime powers, al most as fcoon as It wa organised. However. In 1038. the party boldly came out with its present name "Tbe Communistic Party of the United States,' and remember, this party Is a member of the "Commun ist international," In Russia. A review of the votes east by the party -In presidential elections, shows that the popular vote for the Com munist candidate for president in 1932 was double that of 1938. and mote than three times the vote of 1034. The total number of Com munists and active Communist sym pathizers In the United tSates. waa estimated at over half a million in 1030. The sworn dally circulation of Communist newspapers, 363 ,000, alto lno'cates that th Communist and their sympathisers probably total mure than a half million. The Communist party of th United Sta'ea has a great many subsidiary and auxiliary organisations. A con- grocalonal report give th names of these organisations which Indicates the widespread ramifications of Com munistic propaganda throughout im portant branches of American life. Th persistent efforts of the Com munist party, throughout the world to overturn existing government by Inciting unrest and fanning labor stid racial hatred la reflected somewhat In the number, of disturbances which occurred In 1033-1033. During these same years, the Communist party in the United States stirred up trouble In many cases. Many examples oould be quoted. In 1834 they participated tn many str'kes held In thla country. Once a strike haa begun, or la Imminent. Communist strike leaders from other cities, trained in the technique of Communist activities arrive on the asene. and take charge of operations. They pretend to be In sympathy with the alma of the atrlkera for higher wages, shorter hours, and better working conditions, but eventually they oppose adjustment of th strike, preferring to have It continue for th purpose of promoting clssa hat red and a Communistic revolution ary attitude among the worker.
