Armistice means, NOT p'eace, but a cessation of hostilities, a period ot council and disoussion, during whioh viotor and vanquished, may arrive at terms which are mutually satisfactory, for the future attainment of peace. We feel that the day might be observed, not only by those veterans of the war, who brought the world peace, but by the combatants in the recent political conflict, which resulted in such a decisive victory for President Roosevelt and the New Deal. a f j EVER since the election we have been reading everything we could find from the anti-Roosevelt press, bearing upon the result, and the probable course of the opposition, during the next four years. The reaction as a whole has been admirable a disposition to accept the verdict, as the will of the people, and in that spirit of goodwill, good sportsmanship, and deference to the will of the majority which is the essence of true democracy. But there have been eertain exceptions, and it is of these exceptions that we are going to write, as our offering on this occasion of our 1936 Armistice. THESE exceptions taken together run something like this. The RonRflvelt vinitnrv was AMAntiAliv due to the nresident's magical powers as a political leader and popular exhorter, and the opposition can expect to do nothing of an effective nature, until some leader who can match him in showmanship and per sonal magnetism can be found. Second that while there is no doubt about the vote of confi dence given the president, this was not an endorsement of his specific policies, and so the fight must go on to restore this country, to what is termed the "American way of life." IN our opinion no successful Armistice, no mutually satis taotnrv Sffrspmsnt. lnolrino' tnwarri nermilnpnr. nnlitlnnl nssM can be reached, as long as views are seriously enlertained opposition. No one denies President Roosevelt is a consummate political strategist, a statesman of extraordinary powers of leadership, nationally and internationally, but to attribute his sweeping triumph, Bolcly or largoly to his intimate that it all comes under adroitness and manipulation, is nonsense, and decidedly un American nonsense. President Roosevelt won such was right, not because he bas radio voice. He had a definite, coherent, clean-cut program, he had his record made on that program, and all he really did during the enmpaign, was to olarify and eluaidate that program, so that everyone, high or low could understand it. Thr. people understood, believed in the program, and the man who was re sponsible for it, they voted their beliefs and that is ALL there is to it 1 So muoh for that phase of the NOW as fBr as the American way of life is concerned. What id IhA Aninrinfin tit Mi. ,f llf inmallilnn P!va1 onrna mal pattorn that waa turned out ago, and must not be changed! " Of course not. The American way of life is what tha people of this country declare by their votes they want it to be, at any given time. We live in a democracy, and the corner utonc of democraoy is majority rule. 'T'irE issue in tho recent campaign was clear, it was whether this country should or should NOT continue along the lines President Roosevelt had mapped out. This issue was not bo clear when the campaign started, it was crystal clear, before it ended. No thinking person by the first of November, could have had any doubt of that. By a majority of nearly ten million votes and by the greatest doctoral landslide in the country's history, the people delivered their mandate that tho "way of life" as outlined by the admin istration should be continued. That vote, as we see it, settles THAT. We don't mean those who don't favor the New Deal, or accepting it as a whole, but opposing it in certain details, still don't approve of President Roosevelt, should abandon what they honestly believe, is a "good fight", to change the direction of that effort. Not at nil. An organized and effective opposi tion to the party in power in a democraoy, is not only desirable, but in a sense essential to the most efficient government. OUT we DO mean the phrase "American way of life" as a party brittle cry should he abandoned, and any attempt, to deny that this election determined what direction the American way of life should take, should be DROPPED. When this is done then a successful Armistice is possible, and progress toward a mutually satisfactory political peace can proceed from that point. But until these PRIMARY concessions by the defeated minority are made, we can see little hop for either. As To Television TKLKVISION will arrive in 1938.

It hard to be happy with throbbing. fWDtng, agonized dogs. Met a lady fvom a far coun try the other day. Her conversation wv more inter eating than any book. But one's attention waa frequently d 1 a tracted by the ex pression of tor ture, grief, bit terness or fear that constantly flitted over her countenance. All the conventional measures were employed In vain. Not until after she had gone did J learn that the wretched woman was un dergoing torture from a pair of new shoes a aire too small for her. Which set me ta thinking. The size and shape of the shoes one wears may change the destinies of all the world. This will seem silly or sound, accord ing to the extent to which you have suffered from your dogs. Perhaps the most frequent com plaint about the feet U that they burn. Burning of the feet occurs In various conditions. In pronated or weak feet, In the early stages of flat loot, In hyperhldroels (excessive sweating). In erythromelalgia, pain ful redness or congestion, and in acroparethesla (numbness, tingling and burning of hands or feet of women of mature age, from unknown cause, possibly shortage of vitamins In diet). The relief of burning of the feet of course depends on treatment of the cause. Sufferers should avoid constricting th lega with garters. They should use plain talcum or bo rated talcum freely in the shoes. San dals, slippers or oxfords are preferable to footwear which covers or binds the Instep. Painful .heel la sometimes due to bursitis of the friction cushion or pad between the back of the oa calcls (heel bone) and the Achilles tendon or heel cord. Rest, lodln painting firm bandaging with cotton pad either side of the tendon, avoidance of pressure from shoes for a few dayi will usually overcome. In some 'cases the Infection of the bursa Is gonor rheal ana persists much longer. Stair climbing Is particularly to be avoided ! Spurs (.osteophytes), bony projec tions or outgrowths, sometimes ap pear on the under surface of the os- calls or heel bone and may account for much pain In the foot or heel. X-ray films show them spurs clearly. mm O.QMclntyre NEW YORK, Nov. 10. Broadway seemed more like ye olden times the Broadway of Weber and Fields, Martin's and the Knickerbocker with the recent visit of Willie Collier. For years he was ace of the Rlalto'a light c o m e,d 1 a n s, a forerunner of the Noel C o w a r d a and sundry not-too-obvious rips. He was the youngest of the Weber - Fields outfit. A sort of Peck's Bad Boy of the troupe, often blurting out suddenly Improvisation that buckled the performance In gales laughter. The unpredictable sky rocketing sometimes made for un even performances, but was good box office. He was one of the few actors who wrote almost all his lines and created his own situations. And In this he Invariably showed restraint new apeaklrig too much or over-doing hia entrances. He was at his boat swap ping sarftlea with Oeorge Cohan In their revues. A down years ago ne ahucked the local scene for Hollywood touching up scripts, directing a little and play ing character parts. The Broadway to which he returned after so many yoars depressed him. His cronte were gone. And he was happy to get back to tha California sunshine. Two of the frequently broadcast radio amateur, are known aa the rulton Fish Market Duo. One Is 7fl snd the other 73. For eo years they have enjoyed life and made a fair living caroling cantos of yesteryear Each thumps a piano. Their biggest pickups are around S a. m. when they sing for the fish mongera. They live In a Bowery flat and of evening wander from bar to bar never tak ing a drtnk hut apparently having more fun than anything. The ex-queen of Spain, a sort of royal hooded Ntobe, made a splendid impression on those with whom she came In contact on the visit to her stricken son. She has a warm, liquid voice, ey limpid and remote and one could not hetp but notice the ava lanche of tragedies had left her their scars. Once on a hlapttal visit to her son. he was given the phone. She rpcotfi.trcd from the greeting it was the ex -king, so she discreetly ttp-tocd from the room and waited at the end of (he corridor until connection was broken.

However, they are seen In soma oases where there Is no present complaint of heel pain. Probable pain occurs only when there is associated bursitis. Nevertheless permanent relief - is best obtained by removal of these spurs, through U-shaped Incision at sides and back of heel, so that after re moval of the spurs the flap may be stitched back In place and leave no scar on the sole of the foot. This surgical treatment should be resorted to only aftei a fair trial of rest, prop er support and other remedies to al lay Inflammation has failed to bring relief. The removal of the spurs Is usually completely successful. If the patient also suffers from pronated or flat feet of course, the treatment of heel spurs does not alter the treat ment of the other condition , 1 QUKSTIONS AND ANSWBftS No Pillow Have been sleeping without pillow for several years.

It was pic ture of a group or communist offi cers praising a little girl of 19 years of Arge. The girl, with a rifle slung i over her shoulder, proudly boasted that she had Just recently killed five rebel sold lent. Think of It, a girl 1J yoars old being praised for killing five men. but what was so revolting to me was that one or our latyest papers would print a picture of this tvpe. Dine & Dance h C.r.

This was alao ahorrlfylng. In my opinion boys of thla age gain a lust for such killings over having seen pictures simitar to tha one described In the above paragraph. It would seem to ma that soma of our editors, especially those that control so large a circulation as this particular paper does, would use a little more judgment and care in the type of pictures they reproduce for all to see. I personally do not think that pictures of this calibre reflect any credit on the paper printing them or the editor either. Contmrlly, they do more harm than good, R. T. smoiiER. Medford, Nov. 10.

The treasury department now Is at work very quietly to take over the liquidation of Mr. Jesse Jonea' out fit. It may not be successful In con vincing Mr. Roosevelt, but Its lawyers say there la no reason to maintain an extensive RFC organisation Juat to collect money and turn It over to the treasury. Mr. Morgenthau, they Bay. could do It Juat as well, and save RFC expenses. Also, there seems to be the matter of a tax speech made by Mr. Jones during the campaign. The speech In dicated that the administration should and would alter the new tax bill theory materially at the next session , of congress. Later, Mr. Roosevelt spoke of the tax bill at Worcester In very high terma and seemed to refute Mr. Jonea' views. - At any rate, the treasury so construed It. How this will all work out la not yet clear, especially as Mr. Jones la understood to have some Ideas about continuing the RFC lending policy to. effect a reorganisation of rall roada. Note From the above you may correctly conclude that, while the election settled many things, It did not settle peace within the scrappy New Deal family.

(jip) Com merce department experts reported today that unofficial checkups Indi cate there are now fewer than 0,000, 000 unemployed. They said the number of those out or work has been falling off steadily thla year and was "slightly less than 9,000,000 at the end of September." This compared with their estimates of 11,000,000 for January and 9,050, 000 In August. The September figure la more than 6.000.000 below the estimate for March. 1033, when a high of 18.000. 000 was reached, according to the commerce department experts esti mates. The latest figures were considered highly Important, coming as they do at a time when tha administration Is engaged In an announced attempt to bring the budget closer to balance.
