Banwell's Bed of Roses
To the Editor:
The broadside fired by the learned
Mr. Ban well, manager of the Cham
ber of Commerce, and printed In
your issue of April 13-13 under
"Menace of Communism Stressed by
Baowell," serves aa an excellent Il
lustration of the bankruptcy of Ideas
In the business mind In the vast
domain of social evolution. The Big
Berthas were aimed not only at the
much misunderstood so-called com
munists who are numerically almost
& zero but also against all those
having dynamic Ideas, It Is hero
where the undersigned comas Into
the picture. "The rap" la of course
taken but not without protest, tt
must be feeble 'since little can ' be
accomplished in 300 words against
Mr. Banwell's 3000. Nevertheless here
goes:
In common with most all business
men, Mr. Ban well stresses the Im
portance of social static aa all un-
sclenttflo thinkers do and to their
ultimate disadvantage. Anything,
however good, held onto too long
becomes rotten. This la as true of
eggs as of Institutions. Nature ab
hors the static condition like It does
a vacuum and when the much de
luded but well meaning Ban wells re
act against change they court dis
aster, not only to themselves but to
all. Changes are Inevitable. The best
that can be done Is to guide them
Into channels most advantageous to
all. This la a hard lesson for society
but must be learned nevertheless.
Mr. Banweli believes that changes
In American Institutions threaten to
do away with his bed of roses In
which he luxuriates. He Is against
those agents of Immutable laws be
hind social transformation. But his
own statements prove that he does
not believe in American Institutions
not the chief one, I.e., liberty of
expreanlonl He tells the Lions that
they "should bend every effort to
see that a curb U placed on subver
sive activities and that leaders are
permanently muzzled, at least as far
as talking Is concerned t" He falls to
define subversive activities. It could
easily be proved that hla are Just
that. And where would America be
If such a policy were followed while
laying the foundation of her cap
italism, Answer: Strangled In her
cradle. Who can doubt It?
He makes a strong appeal to relig
ious prejudices an emotional appeal
simply because he la incapable of
making an Intellectual appeal. But
here Is a subject that Is disbarred
from these columns. Moreover, the
300 word limit Is passed which, no
doubt will meet with much satisfac
tion by others beside Mr. Banweli.

HOW DO YOU HA
In recent articles referring to the
new treatment of chronic arthritis
with massive doses of vitamin D
(200.000 to 600.-
7rW"Mi 000 uniu 5ally)
we alluded, cas
ually, to calcium

tion and utilisa

Then In the booklet "The Ills Called

calcium lactate or, gluconate and
also the excellent reaulta obtained
In the treatment of chronic arthri
tis by daily Injection of parathy

calcium metabolism.
Vitamin D either controls para
thyroid gland function or in some
way promotes or supplement the
physiological action of the parathy
roid hormone or internal secretion.
Ultraviolet light, of which noon
day mid-summer sunlight is . the
richest source, produces vitamin D
by converting certain fat-like sub
stances called sterols Into vlosterol.
Sterols In the skin are so changed
by exposure to sunlight or to ultra
violet from a mercury-vapor quartz
lamp or an arc lamp and the vitamin
D. thus produced Is carried by the
blood from the skin to the places
where It is required In the body.

mentioning, Is available to any read

the dime Is so long as it is legible and
not all gummed up with glue, muci

gunny sacking.
There's still a puzzling point about
calcium and how the body bandies
it. that I hope we may spon clear up.
That la why the foods which are na
turally the best sources of calcium
are poor In vitamin D or contain
none at all, whereas the few foods
which contain vitamin D are indif
ferent or poor sources of calcium.
This apparent discrepancy causes one
to wonder whether nature did not

high as us folks out here In the west

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Milk
Should pasteurized milk be boiled
before giving It to the baby? I have
been boiling It 30 minutes, as boiling
Is supposed to break up the curds
and render It more digestible, but
does pasteurization In Itself do this?
. . . (Mrs. 8. C.)
Answer Pasteurization means the
process of heating the milk to 146
degrees (par-bolllng) for 20 to 30
minutes, then allowing It to -.cool.
This degree and duration of heating
destroys disease germs In the milk.
I should not advise boiling milk with
a purpose of making It more -digestible;
on the contrary, raw milk is
probably more rapidly digested than
cooked. Be sure the baby fed pasteur
ized or boiled milk receives a dally
ration of vitamin C to prevent scurvy

or factory canned) or orange juice,

PLANS TALKED FOR
Various phases of 4-H club work
were discussed by the Jackson county
4-H leaders association which met In
the courthouse auditorium, Medford,
Saturday.
Attention waa focused on ways and
meana of raising funds for the 4-H
club summer school which la to be
held, at CorvalUs In June. Leaders of
the various 4-H groups outlined
briefly whet their clubs were doing
to raise funds for the summer school.
Mrs. Prank Croucher. leader In the
Howard district, reported that her
club was sponsoring candy sales and
that they already had made a small
start toward a summer school schol
arship. According to Miss Marjorle
Flak of Oak Grove, the clubs In her
district are planning to give an out
door carnival to be held some time
In May.
Miss Doris Hitchcock of Be 11 view
stated that the clubs In her district
were well on their way and had al
ready raised some funda for scholar
ships. Mr. Dick Joy, president of the
association, reported that the Ash
lend clubs had gh'en an entertain

or three scholarships.
A rery Interesting talk was given
by L. J. Allen, assistant state club
leader, stressing the Importance of
leadership in the community and ex

the people, doubting their own pow
eVs, have turned to dictatorships for
relief wsshlng their own hands of
the mess And saying to some INDI
VIDUAL: "Here Is supreme power;
see what you can do with It."
It has been a terrible mistake. No
matter what the ahortcomlngs of
self-government may be, they CAN'T
be ss bad as the shortcomings of
ABSOLUTISM.
When absolutism begins, liberty
ENDS.
