Editorial Correspondence COLUMBUS, Nebraska, Sept. (By mail) We snook off from Rockford in the early dawn, with a parting shot from the state police that some energetic minion of the law would probably stop tig before we reached the Missouri river. The theft of the car, description, license number, etc., etc., had been broadcast over the Mississippi valley, and for some reason not explained, the recovery of the car was not put out over the air. We suggested an official notice to explain the absence of the rear license plate and a battered one on the front, but the officer said that would be unnecessary, just explain the car had been stolen, show our driver's license and all would be well. The consciousness that we were marked with the police as stolen property cramped the chauffeur's style a trifle, but we reached Omaha without mishap, and didn't even see a policeman or motor cop along the way. "Which shows" observed the bright young man, "how easy it is to make away with a stolen automobile." No doubt the police will come in for a panning, in that first short story. . . We stopped at Dixon, filling up with gas and oil, and breakfasted at the Ideal cafe, where we observed on the front door card, that "fresh food was served every day." Kggs appar ently aren't included under the heading of food, they had the unmistakable storage tang, and the butter was plain oleo, this in the center of a great dairy state 1 , As we returned to the car (you bet it wag locked) a rural gentleman with mud on his boots, and a week's growth of beard, stood on tho deserted sidewalk contemplating the front license plate with great interest. seat he came to the side and one driver's license, convinced that man was at least tho town "constuble. But ho proved to be just a he was from Pekin, where he best land in Illinois, and left it took over a state job, at Dixon. He noticed the license plate and had always been interested in Oregon, hoped to go out there some day, wondered how things were on the coast, the same time appraising us and how s Oregon going m the lection. We surmised Oregon would appeared to have California and How about Illinois? here political cross section. It's in the bag for Roosevelt soil emphatically. "Hearst thinks different, an' the Tribune yells its head off for Alf every day, but you jtfst watch. The people ain't fooled, the folks on the land will show 'em.

"Uoosovolt prosperity ',' observed tho bright, young mini, but the girl wns busy with the next customer, so we went on with the score fiO-50. We had parked the ear across the street at a service station, and as we approached one of the attendants eame forward to give tho windshield a finiil flick, ami tell us to come again. Suddenly ho leaned over toward the front fender, picked up something nnd asked "is this your chicken?" There in his hand he held a white leghorn pullet, its eyes closed by yellow lids, and added "By gum, must a hit it near town, it's still warm." (As the unfortunate bird hod be.en resting in tho hot noonday sun, for quite sometime this was not surprising.) Well, yes, it was our chicken alright j there was tho corpus delicti, and we reenlled one of the many we had passed nlong the highway ran directly toward us as chickens will, but we thought had gone safely under the car. "Not. a bad idea" said the B. Y. M., "kill 'cm and pick 'ein up as you go by." "Instead of cash and carry, kill and carry" observed the attendant who wns something of a wit also. "Why not take it along nnd have it for dinner" said the B. Y. M. But "papa" didn't like the idea picked up perhaps for exceeding the !tf miles nn hour, in a stolon car, with some poor farmer's yellow-legged pullet in the back seat, might not look so well. The court ruled the trophy should go to the menial of the oil trust, who remarked he could "use it nil right." , Here wns another opportunity, "How are you going to vote for president?" wo inquired as the engine started. "Well the poll .in yostorday's paper showed Iandon carryin' lo-wny guess that's nil right, ain't it?" Speaking of chickens we wonder why farmers in the midwest along tho Lincoln highway try to raise them or rather why if they do, they dont keep them snfely penned up somewhere instead of allowing them to forage along the right-of-way. There were feathers atrewn all along the road from Dixon to the Missouri river, nnd nenr Sioux City we ran into a dead pig that had done his last bit of jnywalkiug. Why there aren't several cows we can't understand, for the right-of-way appears to be a very popular grn.ing area, and while a cow has moro sense than n chicken, perhaps. we can't regard its I. Q. in thick and fast motor traffic, ns exactly altitudinous. . . We stopped here only because the sun set, as we glided into the nity limits, and nn attractive looking motor enmp confronted us. These motor camps must be as serious a problem to hotels, as motor trucks and busses are or were to railroads. That is the modern ones. The old type motor camps, where one had to sleep on a strnw mattress, take a bath at the community faucet, and pay 23 cents extra for bedding, didn't compete with the hotels. But the modem, up-to-date camps do this one was clean, neat, attractive, with private baths, Simmons beds, garage and new and tasteful furnishings, at less than half tho price for similar neoommodntioiis nl n modern hotel. Our sympathies arc with the hotels; just ns they have been and still nre with the railroads, but competition is competition, nnd as we sec it, this motor camp competition, particularly in the smaller towns, will hnve to be met. in some way perhaps in lower prices and free guru ge service or the hotels eventually will have ns hard picking ns the rnilronds had, before they' woke up.

HOW MANY O A reader requests me to name the diseases of the human body that are supposed to be known as germ dis eases. Dad bust It I I do wish you chil dren would desist from baiting me that way. You f'? V I know It rouses i, 1 I all my sarcasm when you pry me with the furtive mood. Left be frank, why make a secret of the Identity or stand ing of the one who does the supposing? we're all out of grammar school now. Every public library haa or should have Rosenau's "Preventive Medi cine and Hygiene," published by Ap- pletons. This authoritative work gives the best of our present knowl edge of the cause and prevention of disease, and I believe It omits no dis ease which physicians know or be lieve to be of germ or Infectious character. The more Important dlaeases we know caused by specific germs arc tetanus (lockjaw), typhoid (enterle) fever, tuberculosis, cholera, plague, diphtheria, anthrax (wool sorters' dls- ), glanders, gonorrhea, malaria, epidemic cerebro-splnal mentngltl (brain fover. spotted fever), syphilis. typhus, tularemia, childbed fever (puerperal septicemia), actinomyco sis. Diseases we believe to be due to germs or other organisms: Amebic dysentery, dengue, chlckenpox, small pox, epidemic (lethargic) encepha litis, measles, German measles, scar let fever, Influenza, undulant (Mal ta) fever, mumps, pneumonia (lung fever), poliomyelitis (Infantile paral ysis), Rocky Mountain spotted fever (tick fever), septic sore throat, acute Infectious conjunctlvltla (pink eye), trachoma (chronic red sore eyes), tulareinln, whooping cough, yellow fover. Diseases we know are caused by parasitic Infestation: Trichinosis, hookworm anemia, favua, and of course the common round worm, pin worm, tapeworm and ringworm In festations. Ordinary septicemia (aoute blood poisoning) Is due to various germs chlofly atralna of streptococcus and Staphylococcus, Invading the tissues through some wound, scratch or other break .of skin or mucouB membrane, nover to chemical poisoning by rust, verdigris, metal, dye or paint as the popular notion goes.

An Inland sum mer home with out lake Is ns declasse as a Hollywood ha cienda, vlthmit a swimming pool. The craze started early this reason In the Rldmefteld sec tion. In a Tew weeks several hundred workmen were d.-edg-lii a score or more estates And the idea bean to spread like fire In dry gras. Mostly the lakes are for the children to swim in and Ml. toy boats but wm have grown t the pretentions of acres. A fair-sized lake, I am told, costs around $1,500 but there are a dozen In the holty tolty Greenwich area that represent an outlay of HAOOO each. With the fad has grown a croup or experts. In Radio City there u an expansive office tap-d: "Art'fclal Ijike Consultants." The expert can blue print a lake and get it In first class shape In a few weeks time. Real estate men say the innovation has made a large number of laketeAs residence!, unrent able. And they further remark, with a shrug, that lakes draw mosquitoes and other winged nests.

The Morning AfterTaking Carters Little Liver Pills Comment of the Day s News By PRANK JENKINS FRANK KNOX, Republican candl cadate for vlce-piesldent, creak ing In Helena, Montana, on Monday, made this statement: "Leaders of America' large cor porations are not economic r-y illats or representatives of en trenched greed, Jut have been partners In the most successful co-operative business In history." This successful co-operative busi ness, to which he refers, Is the United States of America. SINCE 1776 (when It was founded) the United States of America has produced THREE TIMES as much wealth as the WHOLE ( WORLD pro duced before 1778. It he more than doubled our AV ERAGE wealth and our AVERAGE Income since 1900. BUT, the demagogues tell us. the BIG SHOTS have got all this wealth. Let see about that. In 1934. in the midst of the de pression, there were 44 million sav ings account In the United State of America, with aggregate deposits exceeding 34 BELLI ON dollars. . Thee 44 million savings account weren't all owned by the big shots. AT the same time, 10 million build ing and loan association mem bers owned building and roan assets worth eight BILLION dollars. There were 131 million life insur ance policies In force with a face value of 108 BILLION dollars. The big shot don't own all these building and loan associations or all these life insurance policies. - IN 1880. 34.7 per cent of the popu lation of the United States was gainfully employed. In 1030, 30.4 per cent of our population was gainfully employed. In 1860, workers for wages revived 38 per cent of the national Income. In 1939, workers for wages received 65 per cent of the national income. The share of those who work for wages, you see, has been STEADILY INCREASING. AS Mr. Knox says, the United States of America, haa been the most successful co-operative business In the history of the world Wb are all shareholders In this co-operative business, and we have ALL BENE FITED. We have benefited so TREMEN DOUSLY that people from all over the world have flocked to our. nores In the hope of SHARING our oene- flts, so that we had to erect high immigration barriers In order to keep from being swamped under the flood of foreigners that was pouring in upon ua. THESE foreigners have been under no delusions about the United States of America. They have known It is the happiest and most pro per -ous country on earth. WINDY demogogues (seeking of fice) try to tell us this is TERRIBLE country that it exalts the rich and grinds the faces of the poor; that It glorifle che fsvored few and crucifies the many. That Is a dastardly and fearsome LIE. This Is the best country on earth, and has been since its begin ning. It hss done more for the com mon man than any country ever did before. It has created a higher average level of human comfort and human hap piness than was ever known In the world before. IT has done all this with the a'd of the American Institutions A'hlch these windy demagogues, abetted by I impractical dreamers and theorist. ' are seeking to upset and destroy. OREGON CITY.

Furthermore, Hitler 1 not ready. If he were, he would not have to be making public announcement! to that effect. The best guess Is that one more year of preparation at .east will be necessary to develop hli po tential fighting strength. The betting, therefore, run hes itantly but preponderantly against the possibility of an outbreak. The craftiest wrinkle in the Hit ler diplomatic skein lolds over the French. The Russians have an agreement with the French whereby France will go to the assistance of the red "If attacked." The alliance does not hold good If the reds assume the of fensive. So If Hitler can goad the reds Into an offensive move, he may deprive them of their ally. It would not be as hard ut It sounds. The diplomatic wires from Paris have lately carried suspicions that the French do not relish tl'elr increasing responsibility as a Rus sian ally of any one. You may recall that they dodged out of a somewhat similar si tuition only recently In the Ethiopian crisis. What Hitler wants with Chechoslov akia may be seen with the naked eye on any map of Europe The republic is a wedge between Poland and the French -control led countries of Ru mania and Jugoslovla. It has the famous Skoda munitions works, largely French-owned. The famous Transylvantan oil fields are within seizing distance of the border, and Hitler needs oil. The Czechs hate communist. They are ripe for a peaceful penetration program from a major power, hav ing usually been under the domt nance of one or another.
