ALBANY, Aug. 17, (AP) A sen sational record In new construction Is being established here, building permit records showing thfct up to August lo. s io;i o! 341,70l In new projects having been approved, or nine time ihe entire building activity pt the entire year ol IB3J, I Who Is Looney Now? WE knew this wag going to be a cock-eyed campaign, but never expected it to go completely ga-ga, tbug early in the game.. Above all we never imagined the atately and re strained Oregonian, would exhibit signa of emotional instability, before the boys in the trenches had even started over the top. But a long editorial in the Sunday issue, devoted to the strange partisan abberations of the Mail Tribune, leaves us no alternative but the conclusion, that while this journal may be somewhat goofy, there are others, and the leading exponent of orthodox Republicanism in this state, is one of them. listen to this. The Oregonisn, after discovering some- thing "decidedly sad" in the Mail Tribune's naive faith in the Democratic party as a party devoted to the welfare of the common man, adjures us somewhat condescendingly to not let our loyalties run away with our reason. It then proceeds to show how the Oregonian never lets any thing run away with its reason by solemnly maintaining in all soriousneRS, THAT: President Roosevelt is the "white haired boy" as far as monopoly and Big Business is concerned. Thanks to him and the New Deal, monopoly flourished as never before, during his administration, while "the people" (including, we assume, the millions saved from suffering And starvation by government aid), lagged for, far behind. rV,0 support this statement the Oregonian proceeds to demon- strate the clarity of its reasoning powers by asking if the Mail Tribune had not heard that such men as Giannini, "perhaps the greatest financial power in western America, are as strong for the New Deal, as the Mail Tribune"; while "James E. Gerard, an economic royalist of the first order, who married into the Daly copper millions, had $20,000 to bet on Mr. ftoose belt." (Sic!) Quick, Watson, the needle, we need all our powers of doduc tive reasoning to get this thing straight. Now let's see . . . Giannini is for Roosevelt, Jimmy Gerard has bet on Roosevelt, so (are we right!) the big financial interests and the cntrenohed wealth of this country are behind Roosovelt and with good reason, for the Democratic party under Roosevelt is for the monopolists and the "big business ogres", while the Republican party is against monopoly, and Big Busi ness, and is for "free competition" and the forgotten man. Wo admit that doesn't SOUND ressonable, but if that isn't what the Oregonian is trying to maintain, then we admit, whether it's our "loyalties" or Old Stan River, SOMETHING has not only run away with our reasoning, but the capacity which we supposed we had maintained for some 25 years, of understanding the English language as used by the Oregonian. jORHOVER this assumption appears to be supported by the Oregonian 's conclusion. We quote: "The fact la, that the Democratlo party haa become the party of monopoly under government control: and the Republi can party haa become the party of free competition. The Re publican party could not avoid adoption of the Brookings progrsm If It wanted to. That Is Its fate. And Its fate Is a happy one compared to that of the Democratlo party." - "Hasn't the Mail Tribune heard thatf" , Yes, tho Mail Tribune heard it the first time, and that's what started nil this ruckus. But don't believe John D. M. Hamilton has heni'd it, or J. 1'. Morgan, or Charley Schwab, or the mem bers of the Republican national committee, or the Liberty league, and we would suggest tho Oregonian take to the air vin N.B.C. and tell them nhout it. When free competition, and the destruction of monopolistic industry as defined by the Brookings Institution, was merely a trial balloon sent up into tho political atmosphere, bvone enter prising far western newspaper, it was nothing perhaps for the Q. O, P. to take with any particular seriousness. But when we are issured by its author, that the idea has passed from the realm of politics, into the rcslm of FATE, thst the Republican party couldn't avoid its adoption if it wanted to, then it's high time for the big boys within and without the parly, to sit up and take notice. rOR what does "free competition" mean in the Brookings sense t Just another bit of ear-tickling rhetoric! Rhetori cally this country hag been against monopolies and for free competition, for fifty years. No it doesn't mean that. IT MEANS AN ECONOMIC REVOLUTION. It means that huge corporations like U. S. Steel, American T. & T., Standard Oil and American Can must go, and that, othry great combinations, in drugs, dry goods, gro cories and the like must go also. Why! Because FREE competition, in the Brookings sense is IMPOSSIBLE as long as they exist. The Oretronian expressed surprise the Mail Tribune accepted the Brookings report as factually correct, and yet. refused to Hccept the Oregonian 'g conclusion that the Republican party could do nothing better than adopt it. The inconsistency lies on the other side in ACCEPTING the implication, of that report, thst J. P. Morgan'. effgs must be unscrambled and then blithely proclaiming that a program that will destroy Hig Business, will be tsken over by the psrtv of Hig Business, When that is done, as we remarked before, the Republican parly will CKASH.

To at tempt to evade the term belly or belly sch places you In the category with those quaint old souls who still left an eyebrow and say limbs when they refer to legs feminine. Boundary between belly ache and back ache Is Indefinite. In fact belly ache Is nearly always Indefinite dif ficult to locall7 precisely, tha tend erness, a different sensation, may be sharply localized by the sufferer. Belly ache may be due to the onset of pneumonia, especially tn children, and has led to a too hasty operation for "appendicitis" In not a few In stances, Certain forms of heart 'disease may cause the patient to complain of high belly ache or "stomach" ache on a good many occasions before the na ture of the trouble la recognized. Lay men who are gullible enough to be their own doctors consume enormous quantities of medicines purporting to be good for "Indigestion," "gas." "acidity" and the like, perhaps for some years before they learn that tha actual caiiss of the symptoms la not the stomach at all. Once a surgeon gets thru the belly, whether under local anesthesia or general anesthesia, he can carry on whatever may be necesssry, from re pair of a wound or Injury of an organ to the most extensive removal of hopelessly damaged structures, with out giving tho conscious patient any pain, as long as the surgeon exercises care not to stretch, tear or make ten sion on any of the tissues within the abdomen. Even such careless handl ing gives no pain. It simply increases the degree of shock. Generally bellyache Is fererred pain.

(Continued from rag One ) The story may or may not be ac curate. Harrison's ovn announced explanation waa thst the action was taken lo keep Mr. Roosevelt's oppo nents from saying that his rc-eiec-tton aould ntesn more taxes. This version la accepted here more swell than the other for two reasons: (a) Mlaslsslpplana pay fewer federal taxea than 35 other states, and (b) any political effect of the decision will be national, not local. Current talk about a tax reduction was not Inspired by any administra tion source, it seems to be an er roneous deduction drawn from some thing that waa said. However, it anyone want to believe It, Mr. Mor genthau will not try to atop him, at any rata not before election. What was said waa that there might be any elimination of - some taxes which are costing more to col lect than the revenue derived from them. No one haa mentioned what taxea these are, if any. The experts ssy tha Jewelry tsx waa repealed last session because its administrative costs were hlgr. The fur tax now la supposed to cost a lot to collect, but experta csnnot recaU others. The suggestion of tax reduction la considered hokum by all who know that the federal debt amounted to $33,771,000,000 at the end of June, Most Washington opinion leans the other way, towsxd a conviction that, If either Mr. Roosevelt or Governor Landon la able to balance tha budget next yenr, he will need magical pbw eia. During 13S, expendlturea were 8.879,798,257: receipts M, 115,956,615; deficit M,7S3,841,Sa2. (Treasury fig urea.) Suppose the tax yield ahould In crease MOO.OOO.OOO Inatead of the 380,000,000 In prospect) and relief expendlturea were cut $2,700,000,000 then Income and outgo would be even; the budget would be balanced That day eeema to be far distant to most tax authorities. Mr. Roosevelt thought a tax bill would not be necessary thla year and said so In hla January messsge to congress. His words were: "Based on existing laws it la my belief thst no new taxea, over and above the pres. ent taxea, are advisable or necessary." The then existing AAA law was thrown out by the supreme court a few daya later, and the occasion waa used by the tressur a few weeks later to sponsor revision of the corporation tax structure and an increase In tayea which haa amounted to about 700.000,000. The only thing aure now la that Mere will be a tax bill at the next session ef congress and thst Mr. Roosevelt does not now expect an increase. Msny of the old Hoover excise taxea passed in 1932 expire next June. They must be replaced. Also, the MOrgenthau letter Indicated administrative changes In existing xax laws will be necessary. Comment on the Day s News By FRANK JENKINS rHX Oregon department of the - numicBn uegion, closing its an nual convention at Roseburg, adopts unanimously a resolution proclaim ing "an uncompromising fight against communism, fasclam, nazllam, mill tarlsm and any other form of dicta torshlp."
