EJitorial Correspondence
LOS ANGELES, April 1.
termed the "Mail Tribune" an
proper term was "microscopic"
after a tour or the new and splendiferous Times building. The
press room of thjs new edifice alone is about the size of the
Nat dance floor. Half of it is occupied by a multiple high-speed
press, which represents an investment of close to $500,000, the
other half will be used for another press when and if the ocsa
sion warrants. Everything in
the same gargantuan scale. There is an attractive roof garden
a commodious auditorium, first aid rooms, luncheon and ban
quet rooms, and conference
vaulted ceilings, bronze pictures,
the shoe sinks noiselessly, indirect lighting, and a general atmo
sphere of baronial magnificence. Eegular guides take visitors
about at stated intervals. The new Times building is one of the
show places of Los Angeles today.
On the entrance walls to one of the conference rooms, there
are two portraits in oil the only two in the building, that are
on display. One is an excellent likeness of Will Eogers,
according to the guide the only portrait "Will ever agreed to sit
to the other of General Otis himself, the founder of the paper,
that veteran of the Civil war,
his life long war against orgnmzed labor, which culminated in
the McNamara bomb outrage.
written contrasting the characters of these two famous men,
both deserving the title of greatness, but as far apart as the
poles in their essential natures. The electric globe before the

to his descendant?, but the outstanding weakness of the Times

ary papers on the coast.
Saw and heard Webb Miller, famous United Press war corre
spondent, the first man to report the opening battle of the
Ethiopian-Italian conflict. He has been in this country several
months now, but is still shattered physically by that experience.
It is doubtful if he ever entirely recovers, youth can shake
those things off, middle age can't. And Mr. Miller is no longer
young.
His talk was interesting, full
of whBt for the war correspondents was undoubtedly the worst
war in human history. Had he known what was in store for
him, Miller frankly states he never would have gone. Many
times it was touch and go, as far as his living to tell the tale
was concerned. The Italian officers saved his life.
In fact Miller has a pretty high view of the Italian command
in general and thinks if not interfered with, Mussolini will cou
quer the country in about two years. Whether he can pacify it
however, that is another matter.
Webb tried hard to maintain
plain to see lie regards the Ethiopians as a people, about as low
in the scale of civilization as the human biped has gone, or
could go. He has the highest regard for Emperor Haille Se
lassie, as a gentleman, scholar and enlightened leader, but
thinks he no moro represents the polyglot masses of flea-bitten
and illiterate blacks who occupy this section of Africa, than
the president of Chicago University could be said to represent
Al Capone's district in Cicero, Illinois.
Miller hag the same view of
formed people in this country
expect war in the immediate
not next, but ultimately it can't be avoided. As be sees it.
the only way a European conflict can be avoided would be for
either Germany or France to back down, for the sake of peace
make some real concessions. He believes neither of them will.
In his judgment at the moment France is less anxious: to avoid
war than Germany, for France is prepared and Germany isn't.
Could France be sure of England's support, sho would probably
declare war tomorrow.
. Miller started out in a Ford with an Ethiopian chauffeur.
But the bare feet of the chauffeur were so large, that wlieu
he shoved down on the brakes he not only shoved down also
on the accelerator but threw out the clutch. Not much progress
could be made in this fashion, and what progress was made wus
extremely hazardous. So Miller kicked out the driver and
drove the car alone. The cur didn't lust long however, and a
large part of his reporting had to be done on foot. Before long
his feet, were so swollen the boots had to be cut off, and they
are still scarred and in such a condition that the famous war
correspondent doesn't care to walk, unless he has to.
.
Miller met Floyd Gibbons over there, and says they both
agree on this war beii)g the worst assignment either of them ever
undertook. The combination of extreme heat, flies, and lack of
proper food, so got them down that on the least provocation,
they were disposed to bawl like a couple of freshly spanked
babies. When hard boiled veterans like Messrs. Gibbons and
Miller start a sob sister act, one can be pretty sure there is
somcthiug seriously askew somewhere, not in them but their
environment.
We have reservations on the Sunset Limited for San Fran

Los Angeles is the CHEAPEST place in the world. Not far
from the station was s crowded restaurant on the window of

tion of price, but in spirit. If we had to characterize L. A. with

HOW MXCH VITAMIN C YOU NEED.
According to Dr. 8. C. Slo-Bodkln
of Brooklyn, N. Y., who writes In
Medical Times, a child requires half
an ' o u n c e of
orange juice a
day, an adult re
qulrea one glass
or orange juice,
one lemon and
one- quarter to
one-half a head
of lettuce dally,
to provide the
necessary amount
or vitamin C,
otherwise known
as cevitamic add
and ceblon.
In these days
of commerclsl processing Involving
trestment of foods with .sulphur,
ethylene, hot house, ultra-violet ir
radiation, chemical sprays, bleaches,
forced drying and heating without
vacuum, one has to be on the alert
to get sufficient vitamin C.
A certain dally ration of vitamin
C In one form or another is essen
tial to prevent dental defects, mal
nutrition and scurvy. An adequate
supply or vitamin C tends to msln
tsln proper weight, energy, com
plexion snd good teeth.
Certain anlmala have scurvy when
deprived of vitamin O while certain
others seem not subject to this con
dition. Thus guinea pigs, dogs, mon
keys and human beings develop
scurvy; but white tats, mice snd
rabblta do not.
Orange juice stsndlng exposed to
the air loses Its vitamin C rapidly.
The browning of cut apple la pro
portionate to its loss of vltsmin C.
Cooking or boiling or seating de
stroys vltsmin C, especially when
the air has access to the food. But
cooking or heating In vacuum Is
much less destructive to vitamin c.
This explslns why factory canned
tomato or tomato Juice Is a good
source of vitamin C for infant feed
ing, whereas home canned fruits or
vegetables are not.
Fresh or vscuum canned tomato
Juice Is equivalent to orange Julco
In vitamin O content, and contains
about eight times as much vitamin

A liberal supply of vitamin C, ac

QUESTIONS AND "ANSWERS.

I followed a suggestion I saw In
your column some yesrs ago, tried
holding my breath for thirty sec
onds, also putting my head under
the blankets, and I find this seems
to clear up one's head when one
has a cold. R. C.
Answer Whatever that may be.
Anyway, there Is no harm in the
stunt If It seems to relieve you.
Cryptorchidism.
Our son, aged 8, received dally
Injections for undescended testes

the left one had descended and on
July 4th the right also came down
into correct position. We thank you
for making known to us tnis treat
ment. T. M.
Answer Trestment with anterior
pltultary-llke gonadotropic hormone
has brought about normal conditions
in many such cases. In a large pro
portion of cases spontaneous descent
occurs at about the age of 12 or 13
years without treatment of any kind.
Wild Hairs.
Have wild hairs growing In my
faoe. They look like rubber bristles.
The barber digs them out. A. J. D.
Answer A dangerous practice.
Never show a barber to attempt any

it seem to do so. Better leave treat

BORAH DELEGATES
LOSE IN NEW YORK
ALBANY. N. Y., April 3 P Re
turns from New York state's primary
balloting to choose presidential dele
gates brought dpfeai today "to candi
dates pledged to Senator William E.
Borah by an average margin of 5 to
1 In all of the nine districts In which
they were entered.
Friends of the Idaho senator point
ed out, however, that his organiza
tion entered no candidates in the
other 34 districts and held on that
basis that we result of yesterday's
balloting waa not conclusive.
Carl O. Bachman, chairman of the
Borah headquarters in Washington,
said the Illinois test, April 14, would
"tell a different story."
Defeat of the Borah candidates by
regular organization Republicans, who
were unopposed In the other districts,

Comment
on the
Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS,
-iHARlJry HORTON'S lather, W. H
V Horton, went Into the cattle
business as soon as he got his rsnch
in the Poe vsltey estsbltshed and
after the Modoc war excitement died
down.
The cattle business must have
been a great business in those days.
There wss plenty or range (at least
It seems that way. as compared with
present conditions.)' Bunch grass
grew everywhere, and cattle would
come off this bunch grass range In
the fall rolling fat.
And It wasn't the kind of grass
fat we know now. (Charley Horton
la here being quoted, but his testi
mony agrees with that of others.)
Beef fattened on thin bunch grass
was almost aa hard and firm
grain-fed beef.
Practically all the old-timers agree
on that point.
IP you've ever been out In the hllll
with a saddle and pack outfit and
have been so fortunate as to run
onto a patch of bunch grass and
have seen your horses abandon the
rank, lush grsss growing along the
banks of some creek and go after
the sparse, dry-looking tufts or
bunch grass you will understand
what this desert forage meant to
the cattlemen back In the days when
It was sbundant.
M
R. HORTON bought cattle as far
and drove them back. These drives
meant hard work for the horse out
fits, which were under saddle 16 to
18 hours a day, but the horses
would come .back from these hard
Jaunts In fine condition, aa fit as 11
they had been fed regularly on grain.
That was what the bunch grass
did.
CATTLE, as already . stated, were
grazed through the summer and
sold In the fall. Those, that Is, that
were ready to sell. Those that were
kept were wintered on hay cut In
the valleys and the creek bottoms.
Sacramento was then the big buy
ing point, and Anderson was the
railhead. Cattle bought in this coun
try were driven to Anderson and
there loaded onto cars and taken to
Sacramento.
Down the Pitt river was the fa
vored route, and they were drifted
slowly, making not more than 10 or
15 miles a day. to avoid undue
shrinkage. Over this long trip, the i
shrinkage was astonishingly small, ,
which tells its own story of the
feed along the way. j
TWO big buying outfits came
regularly to this country. (Still
quoting Charley Horton.) They were
C. Swanson & Son and J. Gerber
k Brother both of Sacramento.
Prices weren't so hot, according to
present standards, and Bales were
almost entirely by the head, rather
than by the pound. In those days,
both buyers and sellers had to be
good "guessers; " meaning by that
they had to be able to estimate pret
ty closely what an animal would
weigh.
It was really surprising how close
these buyers could come to the
weight of a steer.
AS Mr. H o r t oa remembers it.
somewhere around $16 to (IB for
a 1000-pound, bunch grass fattened
steer was an average price. If you
will do a little mental arithmetic,
you will discover that this was con
siderably under two cents a pound.
We'd certainly think that was giving
them away.
Costs, of course, were low, accord- j
ing to present standards. That was
what enabled the cattle men to get
away with It. j
(Still, they probably kicked vig
orously. This writer never yet saw
a cattle man who was wholly satis-1
fled. If the price ts good, he'll tell
you that grass Is scarce and If It's
a good graM year hell howl about
the price. But, taking them by and
large, they're a pretty darned good
lot.)
THOSE must have been great old
days. There were hardships in
plenty, of course, and the comforts
ot civilization as w know them,
were few and far between. But they
were an able and aelf-rellant people
and this was a new and Interesting
country. They had a lot of fun as
they went along.

of small reserves and debt retirement.
The excise processing taxes, dropped
by the bouse committee, will be re
stored by the senate. The windfall
taxes will be Included.
Legislation that has no chance will
be postponed until next session. Tho
Black and Smith lobbying bills have
been Jockeyed into conflicting tech
nical positions where they will prob
ably kill each other 'off. No lobbying
legislation now la In prospect. The
housing act will merely be continued.
There will be no slums clearance or
general low cost housing legislation.
Senator Wheeler Is Just having good
publicity fun with the Basing Point
bill. It will go over until next ses
sion. Also dead or dying are: Fra-zler-Lemke,

drugs.
The final form of the relief bill will
carry the billion and a half requested
by Mr. Roosevelt, but no one yet
knows the form or restrictions.
A modified version of the anti
chain store bill will be slipped
through at the last minute before ad-
jornment.
Greatest Inside problem In congress
now Is to get It adjourned. The
leaders killed off that maverick mo
tion for adjournment In the hout
the other day, although they have
lately developed some personal sym
pathy for the Idea.
Al the legislation they really want
Is the tax bill and the relief bill.
The trouble Is that, while congress
1b now waiting around for those two
bills. It Is getting Into mischief. A
variety of crazy minor ideas Is emerg
ing dally from committees and being
presented to both houses. They are
hard to handle.
And congress Is so far behind on
