A Very Weak Campaign
WELh the campaign is about over. Whatever the result
on Tuesday next we are confident, impartial history will
write down the Republican campaign as the weakest presented
by a great national party, during the present generation.
For asido from the time honored practice of the "outs' to
view with alarm, what has the Republican case amounted to?
Eliminate the table-thumping appeals to fear, fear of. bank
ruptcy (no savings account, no insurance policy safe!) fear of
communism (destruction of constitutional government- and the
American "way of life"), and we fail to see any definite issue
raised by the G. 0. P., which any thinking person could take
seriously.
fF course if the American people were as short of memory,
as easily bamboozled, as the Republican board of strategy
appears to have believed, there might be a different verdict.
But fortunately they aren't. There is, of course, an ignorant
vote, just as there is, in the larger cities, a purchasable vote.
But taken together they form a hopeless minority. The Amer
ican people, by and large, are neither hopeless morons nor cor
ruptioniBts, and when it comes to the main issues and the
salient political facts, they not only do their own thinking
but they think clearly.
TAKE this bankruptcy alarm for example. Colonel Knox
first sounded it, and very explicity. It wasn't a qualified
statement. .He didn't say no savings account or insurance
policy would be safe, IP the .financial policies of the present
administration were continued. - He said Bnd he roared like
the bull of bashun no savings account or insurance policy is
safe NOW. : : .,
More than that. When this utterly false and inflammatory
pronouncement.,' not - only aroused general indignation, but
threatened criminal action- the doughty Colonel, not only re
fused to retract but repealed the statement later, a tribute we
should say. more to his pride of opinion and combativeness, than
to his sense of fair play, or good judgment.
T was not the Colonel who finally explained what waa really
meant; the explanation came from some of his party friends.
They ..-.-eed of course that savings accounts and insurance poli
cies are entirely safe, that banks and insurance companies are
entirely solvent, but because of the devaluation of the dollar
in relation to gold, when the former are paid back, they will
be paid in dollars worth only 59 cents which means that their
holders will have to take a loss of approximately 41.
In other words Colonel Knox did not tell the truth when he
said no savings account or insurance policy is safe, but had he
said no savings account or insurance policy is worth as much
today, as it was under the Hoover administration, he would have
been tolling the truth. For the dollar today is worth only
59 cents. . '
..,
jOW politically speaking if this alibi for Mr. Landon's team
A mate means anything, it can only mean this: ,
That the Republican party, wishes tho American people-to
beliove that because of President Roosevelt's gold devaluation
action, the dollars they now have, are only worth a little over
half as much as they were before this action; was taken. And
consequently if they wish their dollars again to be worth 100
corns, rney must, men 1'reaident Roosevelt out and put in- a
Republican administration.
Which of course bas just as much truth in it, as Colonel
Knox's original contention 1
It is true of course this country, along with nearly every
other large nBtion in the world, abandoned the cold standard:
it. is also true the gold content of tho dollar was reduced, and
stabilized at the figure quoted, but. it. is also true the Roosevelt
dollar is not only worth as much in purchasing power today,
as was the Hoover dollar, but. is worth more than was Hip Mse,
at the beginning of the Hoover administration. :
A ND except in international transactions, or where payment
in gold was formerly demanded, that is all that counts,
PURCHASING POWER. The dollar is worth what it will
buy, no more, no less. And not only is the Roosevelt, dollar
worth as much or more than the Hoover dollar, but as everyoue
knows there are a durned sight, more of them more for every
one from tho farmer and the worker, up to Al Smith and Irene
Dupont in the top of the Empire State- building. And the
people, the rank and file KNOW this. -
lUAT a confession of political and moral bankruptcy then,
"" for a great political party hi a desperate effort, to gaiu
control of the government, to try to deny the truth of what,
by actual experience, everyone knows- and through appeals to
fear and doubt, try to stampede, the American people into
voting contrary to their own self interest.
AS indicated above there are only two possible explanations.
Ritll.. t.n..l.l.'.... I-.J . .
" irepuuMmii u-nut-io nre so desperate, tney nave
abandoned all reason and are merely flinging their punches willy
nilly in the forlorn hope of landing some of them in h vital snot.
or they seriously believe the American people as a whole, are
no better than a lot of saps, and will believe anything, no matter
how contrary to the facta, if it is repeated often enough, and
in a sntiieiently loud and terrifying tone of voice.
TP-VKE your choice; we are inclined to the former but perhaps
the latter is nearer the mark. Whichever is correct, the
fact remains, that the Republican campaign of 1936, win, lose
or draw, has been in our judgment the sorriest exhibition of
confusion and futility, that party has put on- during its eutire
existence.

Improvement of
Several months ago, tha conduc
tor of this wretched column an
nounced that he was searching for
a, word which would express the Idea
suggested by tbe
isSmSn following
phrases from
various authors:
Preservat ion
of tbe charac-
terlatlcs
of youth, better
t b a n average
nutritional con
dition as mani
fested In lower
death-rates, bet
ter growth and
development, ex
tension or the
directions, material

tions of adults, higher average level
of positive health throughout the
life cycle, greater pP. more vitality,
the highest degree of natural Im
munity, and adequate fund of re
serve pow-r to tide over emergencies
and strains, the resiliency of the un
tamed animal or the uncivilized
aavage, .,
Has any geek a word for It, I
asked, Intimating that such a word
would be worth twenty-five slmo
Ieons to me. It was a foolish ques
tion. Tbe geeks have thousands of
words for It! September 6, when 1
announced tna& ine contest was
closed,- three hundred and twelve
geeks and thirty-eight women bad
submitted a total of nearly two
thousand words.
Out of this welter of words the
committee (a lawyer, an actress and
a school teacher gleaned a score
which they thought had possibili
ties, as follows:
Super health
Vitalism
Panuglela
Vervallty
Eutonla
Euthenlc
Tip-Top Trim v
Juvltallty
Vlvallty
Anlmergy
Eublosla
Vltablllty
Euphoria
,.rt.,
Eumanophorla
Skookum (Chinook) .
Euphysla
Pleublosls
The dictionary defines "Euphor
ia" ; as "sense of well being and
buoyancy." "Euthenlca" Is defined
as "the science of betterment of liv
ing conditions to secure more effi
cient human beings. These terms
are warm, yet do not quite answer
the purpose. Eutonla la out be
cause the dictionary defines It as
sgreeableaneaa of sound of letters.
The word "vitabllity" was sub
mitted by a Massachusetts woman,
tha word "It" waa submitted by a
Michigan woman. After a good deal
of smoking over the problem and a
few tentative trials of the word In
correepondence, I have decided to
adopt and use a word that was not
submitted by any one but which was
suggested to me by these words "It"
and "vltablllty." The word Is vlte. For
the suggestion the Michigan contes
tant has $15 coming to her, the Mas
sachusetts contestant baa $10 coming
to her.. I hope both of them will per
mit me to mention their namea as
recipients of the award. And I ferv
ently hope that our readers will sub
mit no more words, for the contest
closed September S, and besides, I
have more words knocking around
here than I'll ever be able to use In
this world, and certainly they will be
of no use In the next.
But from now on, when you snag ;
on the word "vlte" In thia column,
please remember it means preserva
tion of the characteristics of youth,
better-than-average, etc., etc.

"No One Can Be Sure" ...
To the editor:
As a side-line sitter who can't get
much enthusiasm up for either party
In this campaign. I waa amused at
the "No one can be sure" speech of
Governor Landon In New York Thura
day night. If he had chosen the one
slogan which I would apply to him,
he could not have done better.
Throughout the ear splitting bally
hoo, now going on six weeks, r have
made a resonably earnest effort to
determine In my own mind. Juat what
Landon will do If he should by any
chance be elected, and now with the
campaign over am aa much in the
dark as ever. On the other hand I
know pretty well what Rooeevelt will
do for I know his record think I
know his main purposes and alms,
and that appears to me sufficient
guide for anyone.
But Landon? I know he la agalnat
the New Deal and practically every
thing Roosevelt has done, but what
would he do If put In his place? I
honestly dont know and haven't
found anyone who does. Take Just
one Item. Bonneville dam what wlU
Landon do about that will he con
tinue It or abandon it? How about
TV A, and the holding company bill,
yes and the guarantee of bank de
posits tne Kansas governor was
against that when It was proposed,
and aa far aa I can make out, has
never gone on record for or against,
since, will he retain these things or
discard them I can see no way out
but to quote Landon: "No one can be
aurel"
Many things about Rodsevelt and
the New Deal I don't like, many 1 do,
but Tibove everything when I go to
the ballot box I don't like uncer
tainty. 1 don't like buying a pig m
a poke.
I am somewhat like that banker In
New York. Warburg I think la his
name. I am no Roosevelt fan, don't
care much for the democratic party,
aa a. party, but for four more long
years give me a president whatever
his faults, who knows what ne Is
doing, and has his record to show for
It that a president who Is Just
"agin" the government, and what he
would do or wouldn't do la entirely
a closed book. Like him too I am go
ing to vote for Roosevelt, unleas be
tween now and Tuesday morning,
somebody can tell me. what the Re
publicans propose to do If they do
get In, not just what they won't
do, but what they will do In un
derstandable and clear cut terms. I
can't make out and don't think any
one else can. By not doing thla I
have an Idea Landon has lost - at
least a million votes, by those who
were rather incline! towards him
when he waa nominated. If you know
where he stands Mister Editor, you
might tell me. and perhaps your man
would lose my vote.

Mr. AfarahaU Observe
To the Editor:
We surely did enjoy your Interest
ing account of the football games
and your Journeys In and around
Portland although a few aly political
dlga accidentally snuck In. .
Congratulations also go out to Mr.
Hemmlla and Geo. Hunt for getting
out one of the most clever and cer
tainly the most artistic political ad
thla .writer haa ever seen. He makes
the same fatal mistake however aa do
all New Deal apologist when he men
tions "What Roosevelt haa done for
us" instead of "What Roosevert has
done TO us." It will take facta and
figures and not generalities to con
vince us. especially the fruit growers
that "Roosevelt haa done anything
for us."
Mr. Editor: If the Man from Mars
was again to come to Earth and waa
told by Mr. Average Citizen that
American president were responsible
for the present world wide depression
would the MM believe It? What do
you think? President Roosevelt said
that very thing when he stated that
"My Republican predecessors emptied
the market basket." When a- hlgb
mlnded man like Mr. Roosevelt stoops
to deliberate -falsehood to' bolster up
his cause, things must be very bad In
deed, he Is slipping and knows It and
like a drowning man la deaperate and
la reaching for a straw, Mr. Roosevelt
knows full weU that the depression
la world wide; that It Is a direct re
sult of the World war and that no
one man or group of men could have
caused It. He haa also found out
much to hla surprise and dismay that
no one man or a group of men even
with billions to spend can halt It.
Despite glowing figures on re-employment
put out by "Ma Perkins"
there ts said to be 11.000,000 men out
of work and 30.000.000,000 still on
relief.
Tbe dismal and Inexcusable fail
ure of the Roosevelt administration
the moat powerful government In the
world, to halt the coast wide strike
of the Longshoremen and Maritime
unions will add untold thousands to
the relief rolls and unless settled scorn
wlU cost the fruit grower of thia
valley hundreds of thousands of dol
lar. A very cogent reason why th
fruit growers, business men, profes
sional men and laborers, depending
upon the fruit business for a living
should go to the polls Tuesday and
vot to give president Roosevelt torn
more years of ruinous experimenta
tion with .bolshevistic - theoriea of
government.

Undistributed Profits Tax Agala
To the Editor:
In your issue of October 30th ye
publish a statement from a business
man long Interested In mining, la
reply to a letter from myself, wblok
was published- October 15.
It was on the subject of tha effea
upon mining of tbe law taxing ua
distributed profits of corporations,
and I cited an actual occurrence less
than a month old, while ha pro
pounds a theory. And bis theory ex
actly confirms what I said about tha
future haphazard financing of .new
mines. Instead of well-financed con,
cerna with agents ready to sea
promptly, and In - competition wttli
each other, in the purchase of proa
pec, ts, we will have the scattered and
unorganized shareholders. In. thoes
concerns.
Why should he refer to the Blua
Ledge. I. too, know something about
the Blue Ledge.
In 1002 my three partners and X
bsd an option on tha Blue Ledg
and we bad the money to pay for It,
too. After spending a few thousand ,
dollars In exploration work, we da,
elded that It could not be mid I I
profitable men, and., so far as I know,
no one has yet proved that we wera
wrong. - '
Now for another concrete eaaav
There Is an old established manu
facturing corporation in Beattla,
which Is controlled by an old estab
lished. mining company. Its location
has become congested and It wants
to move Its plant. To provide tern
this It arranged to borrow $185,000
from the parent corporation to be ra
paid out of earnings. $35,000 of. this)
bad7 been received, when It dawned
upon them that, because- of tbe tax
tbey would be paying not tbe sup
posed 6 per cent for the use of tha
money, but 30 per cent. This Is an
other instance of what the law la
doing right now to check Industrial
expansion.
Albert Burch, Med ford, Oct. 30.
Ohio should go for Roosevelt,
the private surveys say "no."
All Roosevelt seems to need for an
electoral sweep is Ohio and Illinois.
His electoral vote tot-al with these
two states would he 402. However,
the margin of his victory In many
states will be so slim that his popu
lar vow win be held down. ,
Other. Roosevelt states in which
Landon has a bare chance are Min
nesota, Nebraska and Washington.
As mentioned before, tne urate m
upon which the above designations
were made has been accurate in the
past on western atate. bt the marKn
of possible error increases In the more
populous states, and the figures rep
recent only a good expert guess.
