Trowbridge Cab lrjt Works. The Lesson THAT U the cause ot thig ment. Not necegsarily corrupt or ernment that failed to give the a government to be "good" muat spiritual and material contentment. The Spanish monarchy was one of the last in Europe to yield before the impact of the World War. King Alfonso fled follow ed by the royal family. A military dictatorship wag set up, o be followed by a quasi-republic, in turn to be followed by a socialistic-communistic atate. Many changes in governmental forms, but no materia! change in the conditions, social Spain as a whole. QO once more Spain ia in revolt. And it is reasonable to as- sums barring complete exhaustion, that such revolta will continue until a majority of the people of that country, find conditions under which they are now and have been for so long a time. FOR generation the poverty of Spain has been proverbial. There was a small royal and privileged class, superimposed upon a large rural and working class, only a few jumps from actual starvation, and practically no middle class at all. Illiter acy, inertia, decadence, kept the underprivileged and oppressed masses of the country, in subjection for a long time, but the world war loosened their bonds, the granting of the vote de stroyed them. Thn people arose in their might They got their liberty, but they didn't know then, and don't know now, just what to do with it. About all they know ia that in spite of all these politi cal changes their material conditions are still desperate and when a member of the human family whatever his race, becomes dissatisfied to the point of desperation, the inevitable next step, is to grab a gun, run to the nearest barricade and start shooting. NO doubt the board of directors of the Liberty League would find the only trouble with Spain to be its Rcda from Russia and its wild-eyed Fascist agitators. Put all the radicals in jail or cut off their heads, and all would be well. A popular view in Liberty League circles, but a sadly mis taken one. Agitators don't make conditions; CONDITIONS make agitators. Agitators don't make REVOLUTIONS; condi tions make them. Change the condition of the can finally be cleared up; fail to do so, and the conflict and bloodshed will continue, indefinitely. IT'S all plain enough. And yet we seriously doubt if more t.han nna half nf ans nerfenr. of ihm naonla nt fhia nniititrir really see it. They are not interested in Spain. They are not interested in Europe and its troubles. Let them keep on their side of the fence and we will well in this most perfect of worlds. We wish that were true but it isn't. Europe couldn't escape the Americnn revolution, and this country couldn't escape the French or Russinn one. We may not like to be an integral part of the world, but the force of gravity being what it is, we have to be. History proves that strong human forces, constructive or destructive, released in one part in others. No civilized portion of the globe entirely escapes. So it might not be a bsd idea to take a certain interest in this Spanish revolution, and seV if there isn't a lesson in it. i"VUTSIDE of Groat Britain and the United States, there isn't a large popular government left in the world. Why! Because popular government in its various forms failed to give the people the contentment and security they want. So they revolted. Through this revolting Italy got its Mussolini, Germany its Hitler, and Russia its Stalin. And out of this civil war Spain will get its dictatorship, either Fascist or Com munist, the dictatorship of Big Business or the dictatorship of the proletariat. But that won't happen in thig country, the land of the free and the home of the brave. So we THINK. But with the ex ample of the rest of the world before us, it takes a sanguine prophet to be cock sure about that or of anything else. This' much is certain. Unless Democracy in this country gives the rank and file, a MAJORITY of the people satisfac tory security and contentment, they will demand, and with their votes get, some other form. It probably would not be a revolt of bullets, but if not it would be a revolt of ballots. In either event the alternative would be the same Democracy would be abandoned for either the dictatorship of Big Business or dictatorship of the workers, the proletariat. In either event Demoeraoy as we have known it would be no more. Do we want that! Nol How can we prevent it ! By doing what President Roosevelt is trying to do, bring about a New Deal for the people of this country, secure a rioher and more abundant life for ALL the people, bring Democracy up to date, make it work. And yet they accuse Roosevelt of trying to set up a dictator ship, turn the country over to a communist ia or socialist atatel TTHAT is not only untrue, it is the exact REVERSE of the truth. Roosevelt is trying, and has been for nearly four years, to prevent jiiRt that; he has beeu fighting not for himself or for his party but for the country arid American democracy, not to destroy, but to preserve it. That is why Big Business is so dumb in opposing him. This opposition is based upon self-interest. But fighting to preserve Democracy is fighting to preserve American institutions and economic security under them. Business largo or small, opposing this effort, simply can't see where its REAL self interest lies. Canthal Snake round. ASTORIA. Ore. Aug. It.

Cat JOINT DISABILITIES WB Tuberculosii arthrltli, occurring chiefly In children and Involving one Joint, not many Joints In succession, Is sometimes neg lected or lmprop- erly treated a "rheumatism." Gonorrheal ar thritis, occurring In young adults and Involving one or more Joints, tendon sheathes or bursa, la a painful, protract ed disability, com plicated in not a few cases wit, endocardi tis and valvular damage, and prone to leave permanent adhesions which cripple the Joint or Joints, unless pas sive motion Is instituted as early as subsidence of pain will permit and carried out dally. 80 long as doctor and patient understand, It doesn't matter what name Is given to the trouble. Comparatively rare Is Joint disabil ity due to syphilis, and It occurs long years after the early or active stage of the syphilis has passed. Consti tutional treatment of the underlying condition Is Imperative, aside from any local treatment of the affected Joint. Past middle age, chronic disability of Joints, especially Knee Joints and hip Joints, appears to be due entirely to prolonged strain from bad posture and repeated slight Injuries or sprains, which the lowered metabolism and faulty nutrition associated with ad vancing age or with premature sen ility cannot cope with. In these case; of mild but Insidiously advancing "rheumatism" we see the excellent effects of I odin ration, vitamin ther apy, hormone or ductless gland rem edies, attention to correcting postural faults. Insistence on suitable dally exercise all of which measures tend to Increase metabolism and Improve nutrition. Young adults who purport to have chronic "rheumatism" In one Joint are likely to suffer actually from the effects of Injury to the Joint or In- Jury to structures about the Joint, such Injuries as fractures, sprain. torn ligament, displaced cartilage, strain or contusion of a bursa. No intelligent person should be content with a label of "rheumatism" In such circumstance. When one goes to physlclnn complaining of a lame knee or lame shoulder. If the doctor seri ously regards the trouble aa "rheu matism" one may fairly say: "80 you have no Idea what alls me, Doc tor?" if the doctor still calls It rheumatism" well, this Is a free country and there are good doctor feverywlioro. O.FIclntyre NEW YOltK. Aug. l'i. So long have most of us listened to the jeremiads about Jaus that It Is heartening to read some of John Chapman's facts about the popularity and stability of the modern band man. He hah ridden Mirougft the dpresslon, the wonder of the amusement bus iness. It la being proved that the man who falls at almost everything else aa It used to be said of the fel low who began selling Insurance can organ Ire a Jarr. orchestra and make a living. Buddy Rogers clumped toc'ay as a movie Idol, but la now almost topping his erstwhile screen salary as a baton twiddler. The demand for personality orches tra leaders la not confined to cities, but in the vast multiplicity of one night stands. Towns of from 5.000 to 2 A. 000 will pay handsomely for a recogntred dance orchestra. Such an attraction draws from miles around. Paul Whltemen and Pred Waring remain at the top of the big money division for American dance orches tras, Quy Lombard o la also high on the list. Ray Noble Is the big over seas draw. An orchestra leader with a few weeks' engagement at a smart New York resort. If hla tunes have been broadcast, can mop up. Stepping from the elevator on one of the high-up floors of Stetnway hall on West A7th street, one la confront ed by the dcor to an office suite on the glass panel of which Is frosted In box-car letters:Edille Cantor.

He Is Char lea de Zemler, called to cut King Ed ward's hair when he was prlnclng cr. Long Island. His window sign reads: "Hair Cutter to Men. By Appoint ment."

The. only satisfactory treatment In such cases Is surgery. tSacro-lllac strain or relaxation Is too frequently maltreated as "lum bago," "sciatica" or "rheumatism.' Orthopedlo, osteopathic or physio therapeutic treatment Is the sensible remedy. To the osteopathic belongs the credit for teaching us the diag nosis and efficient treatment of thlt common disability of men and wom en. Zf I had sacro-lllac Hrs4n I'd go to a good osteopath for treat ment. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Raw Vegetable J. Should one disinfect carrots and other vegetables that are to be eaten raw, with chlorinated lime solution or peroxide? I love carrot Juice and thin sliced sticks of raw carrot, buv I am told that unless such vegetables are disinfected I'll collect millions of germs . . . (Mrs. H. P.) Answer No. Scrubbing with plalu soap and water and thorough rinsing with water is sufficient cleaning and disinfection to protect against any harmful germs, parasites or their eggs. This applies to apples or other fruit, and tomatoes, which are healthful and appetising to eat raw. Hypersensitive Ears. Brother has such sensitive ears that when he eats with the family (which la seldom) he can hardly stand the scraping of a fork or spoon against a dish and gets very upset and many times leaves the table . . . (Miss W. T.) Answer If It Is simply hypersensi tive hearing, your brother may easily correct It by wearing paraffin or oil ed cotton ear plugs. But more likely the trouble la in the nervous system and he should be advised by a psy chiatrist. Chnlervstltls. A year ago I noticed your sugges tion, began turning somersaults, eat ing more vegetables, drinking more water, and since then have had little trouble from chronic gall bladder In fection. I also practice the breathing exercise given in your booklet "Art of Easy Breathing." I think you are doing a fine piece of work. , . (Mrs. J. S.) (Copyright, 1036, John F. Dllle Co.) Kd.

Most of Its patrons are silver-haired and there la a venerable old-world courtesy about friendly clerks and at tendants.

It's a slice of the long ago a back-peek Into the solid ity of a tempo once so prevalent but now mostly sentimentalities for the historian. Gloria Baker, a sub deb. ia regard ed by many as the moat alluring of the younger heart throbs. A bru nette of 17, she la the daughter of the marrlege of the late Raymond T. Baker and the beautiful Mrs. Mar garet Emerson mother of young Al fred Vanderbllt. Miss Baker Is fairly stormed by the young bloods, but so far plays the field. I notice that among her recent birthday gifts were a town car and Jap chauffeur, a pearl necklace, a silver fox cape and a round trip to London In the de luxe suite of the Queen Mary. That la being blrthdayed. No one seems to have taken Arnold Rot lutein's role as the picturesque, tight-lipped gambler the mystery smooth te who moves in the upper world and lower. Rothsteln. a neat dresser, dark clothes and black ties, had fever-bright eyes against a back ground of unhealthy pallor, in cafes he sat In a corner, back to wall and was the first big shot racketeer to move aboxtt with a bodyguard.

TFTE biggest story In the papers on the day this la written (Monday) la the August 1 crop report of the de partment of agriculture, which makes clear, a nothing yet published has, the extent of the 1036 drouth.. It la a real calamity. ... CONSIDER, for example, this para graph from the Washington dis patch summarising the report: "The drouth has shriveled th na tion? corn crop to th lowest yield in th HISTORY OF MODERN P ARM ING. Th condition of the corn crop la only 48J per cent of normal, the department of agriculture's crop re porting board estimated today on the basis of August 1 conditions.- THIS paragraph tells what has hap pened to wheat: "The 1938 wheat crop will not be more than 632,748.000 bushela, It was eatlmated, compared with the average production of 863,504,000 bushels from 1938 to 1933." Corn and wheat ar th country's Bid grain crops. BARLEY, on th basis of tha August 1 report, will be about half a crop. Rye will be about a half crop. Oate will be about three-quarters of a crop. The smallest potato crop EVER RE CORDED Is predicted. THE DROUTH, It should be remem bered, Is" not general throughout th nation. Her In fortunate South ern Oregon, we hare not been hit at all. Throughout all Oregon, crop yields give promise now of being above nor mal. All along th Pacific Coast, crop yields are expected to be good. Temporarily, at least, the Pacific Coast will b BENEFITED by the drouth, for th scarcity that has been caused will force prices materially higher. Thl 1 true of every section of the country, where the drouth has not hit. In all these lucky regions, pro ducers will profit this year. BUT don't forge't'that we live and do business in th UNITED STATES, and that over any consider able period of time our prosperity Is measured by th prosperity of the country aa a while. Because of the drouth, the TOTAL CROP WEALTH of the United States will not be aa great this year aa it would have been If there had been no drouth. Because of the drouth, consumers will pay higher prlcea for food than they would have paid If there had been no drouth. If con aumers have to pay MORE for food, they will have left LESS to pay for other things. Because of drouth and high price, foreigners will SELL MORE In this country this year than they would otherwise have sold. Because ot tha drouth, our total national wealth will be less than It would have been If there had been abundant cropa throughout th na tion. LET no on fool himself about the benefit of crclty.

Their program would be bad ly hit, particularly the phase of it encouraging municipalities to build power plants. Much skilled labor Is required on these. One hundred per cent relief labor could not be obtain ed In most places. Jckes men wonder whether Mr. Roosevelt waa punishing Ickes for his PWA lobbying In congress against White House wishes. Tho treasury has not made under standing of the new tax bill easy by Issuing 30 pages or explanatory regu lations.

Then: "A distribution made by a corporation to Its aharehodera In Its stetk or in right to acquire its stock shall not be treated as a dividend to the extent that it does not consti tute income within the meaning of the 10th amendment to the consti tution." The internal revenue bureau attor ney who explained the regulations to tha press said the tax is basically not complicated, but that there may be much litigation, also that defects have been found. - A private pre-view of the new com memorative Bridgeport half-dollar haa caused some apprehensions with in the mint.
