For over thirty years, Mr. Ruhl has presented his views on through the editorial columns, of this newspaper.. During recent years he has taken the readers of the Mail Tribune, through the medium of his editorial correspondence, from Calgary to Tia Juana in his little green "bug" and skimmed eastward on sleek streamliners to visit interesting places' beyond the Rockies. . We who arc associated with Mr. Ruhl in this newspaper feel that he is most deserving of this long delayed vacation after three decades of editorializing, with few interruptions. We are likewise confident that our readers, many of whom have been on the Mail Tribune's subscription lists for this period of thirty years, will bear with us in the absence of Mr. Rnhl's editorial contributions with the knowledge that he is enjoying a well deserved rest. Russia on Anxious Seat In Recent Developments; Approach of War Feared Creation of Strong Anti-Soviet ' Front in Middle Europe Puts Soviet Between Jaws of Powerful Vice ' (Editor's Note: Do relationships between Russia, Germany and .inrmn throaten peace in eastern Europe and veteran foreign correspondent for the article the current situation. Its background, and Its potentialities.) By HEWITT MACKENZIE (Associated Press 8taff Writer.) NEW YORK, Aug. 27. (pi Three developments hove given rise to con cern as to whether the frequently predicted Russo-Japanese-Germanic, war is approaohlng: 1. The Initial success of Admiral Horthy, Hungarian regent, , In hla ef. forts to create a strong antl-sovlot front of middle European nations, In cluding Germany. . . 3. The report from Berlin that the German government Is about to double compulsory military service to two years because of "Russian mili tarism." . 3. The Russian eharge that Ger many and Japan are about to con clude an alliance and are riding for war. . Horthy, Hitler Confer. Adrlmal Horthy, en route for a hunt ing trip in the Austrian Alps, went quietly Into Bavaria last week-end for a "secret" conference with Adolf Hitler, who has boen working vigor. ously along similar lines and who recently renewed his attack on Rus. tia because of soviet activities In connection with the Spanish revolt. The nar.i dictator la said to have fjlven Horthy his support for a pro posed tripartite parloy among Ger many, Austria and Hungary to plan an antl-bolshevlst drlvo. Moscow al ready has called Poland a potential enemy and an ally of Germany. Only three weeks ago the soviet press charged that Gormany was try ing to effect this very line-up, with warlike Intentions. The newspapers revived the report which has been circulating throughout Europe that mere was an ainanco between Ger many and Japan for concerted action against Russia. Russia In Had Spot. Whether such an alliance exists or la In prospect, it Is obvious that Rus sia la sitting between the Jaws ot a powerful vise which might start squeezing at any time. Both Russia and Japan long have been talking openly of the probabil ity of war between them, and lust as openly have been rushing military preparatlona to meet any eventuality, Germany haa Indicated two objec tives It she should engage In a war against Russia: The elimination ot what the rclch calls the communistic inenaco to Europe, and territorial ex-t-anslon at tho expense of Russia. The Russian territory most often cited In Berlin Is the rich Ukraine. German have been mentioning this freely aa compensation to Poland for he return of the Polish corridor, Dan- alg, Mcmcl, and perhaps upper Si lesia. Polish Aid Needed.

The Polish army, leeonatructed and rearmed by the late Marshal pllsudskl, Is held to be one ot the crack fighting units of Europe. 'Poland never haa shown any great love for Germany, but Warsaw la much more afraid of Russia and the relch. While the barricade of alliances Is being erected on the western bordei of Russia, and while Hitler continues to shoot his barbed shafts at Moa cow, the Japanoso are proceeding vig orously with their antl-sovlot crusado In the far east. A striking Indication of the temper of the orient was given this week when Japan's army headquarters in Hslnklng, Manchoukuo, announced that nine alleged soviet citizens had been executed at Hilar and as others sentenced to prison on the charge of bubverslve activities. In Disputed Region. Hilar nestles In a hotly disputed boundary region near tho Junction of the Japanese sponsored state of Manchoukuo and the republic of Mongolia, winch Is under soviet In fluence, and Siberia. There have been many untoward lncldonts In this region. Russia haa concentrated troops and the requisites of war on her eastern seaboard. She haa created great air and submarine basos, and has perfect ed her communications across Siberia, Nippon has consolidated her poal tlon In Manchoukuo and northern China and haa trengthened her forces on the mainland, she has beon work ing overttmo on her naval and air equipment. The question of what attitude would be adopted by other European nations In event of a Russo-Japanese-Germanic war Is one which prob ably the heads of states themselves could not answer at this time. Dlctntors at Peace. Moscow has charged that there Is p secret understanding between Ger many and Italy. Howover that may be. the once open hostility between riotators Hitler and Mussolini haa given way to an armlatlce which ap pears not to be lacking In frlendll neaa.

The body uses up and requires about 16 grains of Calcium a day: there la approxl mately IS grains of calcium In a quart of milk "The ordinary mixed diet of Americana and Euro peans, at least among dwellers In cities and towns," ob aerved Prof. H. O. Sherman, In his famous book (Chemistry of Food and Nutrition), "is probably more often deficient In calcium than In any other chemical element." Milk, cheese (all kinds) , eggs, green leafy vegetables, dried beans, peanuts, turnips, carrots, oatmeal, dried prunes, almonds, walnuts and plain wheat are the richest sources of food calcium. But even If you make It a rule to Include milk and-or eggs and two or three other Items from thla list In your dally ration, that Is not an. you have still to assimilate the calcium, and that lan't all. You havo still to utilize It In building or repair, and that Isn't all. You have still to dispose of the 15 grains or so the body uses' up every day. It's all pretty serious and Involves a num ber 'of essentials, namely, a certain amount of sunlight) or ultra-violet light from artificial source) on your naked skin, a certain amount of vita min D, and a certain amount of para thyroid hormone or endocrine sub stance. II any of the essentials Is deficient, you're out of luck. I can't say you'ro doomed to develop arthritis or anything like that, but Just be tween ourselvos I wouldn't but It past you to do so In tho circumstance. In some cases of chronic arthritis calcium lactate taken Internally, 10 gralna three times a day after meals for periods of 10 weeks twice a year, has seemed to give considerable Im provement. Calcium lactate may be taken in 8-graln or 10-graln tablets with a good drink of water, Since the oxidation process (meta bolism) In the body Is usually slow In chronic arthrltia, minimal doses of thyroid hormone over long periods are neiptui in increasing tho meta bolism. Harm may bo done by over stimulation with thyroid. Perhaps better than thyroid hormone for the purpose Is diathermy to the thvroid gland.

I think every arthritic patient should have a regular lodln ration Irrespec tive of treatment of the disease. In fact, I recommend an lodln ration for every man, woman and. child in the country who Is not under medical care, and I do not believe it ever does any harm. Of course one un der the care of a physician should take an lodln ration only with thj knowledge and approval of the phy sician.

On this faot I base my opinion that nakedness or partial nakedness, when comfortable, 1b always healthful: bare legs or bare knees all winter, if the youngsters find that fashion comfortable, should not be frowned on because they weren't fashionable when grandma was a child.

Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS FOF years the East (including, of course, the Middle West) has fought Western reclamation. Back thero, they believe that increasing production on the reclaimed and Irri gated rich lands of the West provides too much, competition for their own products. . '. So, human nature being as it Is, they oppose Western reclamation and Irrigation. . THIS year's serious drought, follow ing tho almost equally severe drought of 1934, ought to bring to the East and the Mldweat some real ization of tho broad national value of Western reclamation. But for the reclaimed and irrigated lands of the West, the effects of the drought on the country as a whole would be much more severe. TWO droughts In close succession, coupled with the AAA policy of planned scarcity, have exhausted ac cumulated surpluses and loft the country relatively bare ot essential foods and feeds. - We are not facing famine, of course, for In these modern days of swift and comparatively cheap transportation there Is no such thing as famine for any nation possessing wealth enough to buy what it needs. Food shortages in one country are overcome by im portations from other countries. But we are definitely facing the fact that the United States, one of the world's greatest food-producing countries, must IMPORT foods heav ily this year. THE effect of these necessary 1m- portatlona will be to REDUCE the wealth of the United States and INCREASE the wealth of the coun tries from which we must buy. HERE Is the point, so far as broad national policy Is concerned: The heavy production of "the re claimed and Irrigated landa of the West, uninterrupted by drought, has added to the natlon'a TOTOL crop production and so has reduced the amount of Importation necessary. The production of these rich and drought-free Western landa Is also helping to hold down extreme rises In price and thus tends to lighten the consumer's drought burden. (The consumer, you wnow, bears the burden of drought along with the producer. Scarcity raises the price and thus adds to the cost of living). ' THE East hss Insisted for years that reclamation and Irrigation In the West are local pork-barrel matters. The lesson of the 1936 drought, fol lowing the 1934 drought, Is that rec lamation la NOT a local pork-barrel policy, designed to benefit the West at the expense ot the East and the Middle West. Instead, it Is a bvoad national pol icy, benefiting the country as a whole In the Inevitable periods of crop shortage. (You will remember, per haps, some firjures from Washington recently showing that of tho last 60 i BRAKE ADJUSTMENT 7 - DAY OFFER Dnrln This Time We Will Render Our Regular lllth Quality Work at Itargaln Prices LET'S QUIT KILLING M TO M rn.Y and SKRVIfK STORf.5 0th And Riv. years more than 20 have been either abnormally wet or abnormally" dry; crop production in either case being reduced). j IN GOOD years, with surpluses accu mulating, It Is easy to lose sight of the broad national benefits ot. rec lamation and Irrigation, but the In evitably following years of scarcity provo'these beneflts beyond all doubt.
