An Armistice
THIS is Armistice Day. 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 may be h-re in 1037,
but early in 1988 Menu like a better guent.
If you will be among thone who at that time wiah to own a
televinion receiving aet it will nost you about $400.
However, if you are thinking of buying a new radio aet at
this time by all meana go ahead and get it. The television set
will not enable you to tune in radio broadcasting. It will be
Jidjimtod to work on one narrow band of extremely short wave
length of very high froiiuenoy, and will tune in just one sta
tion your local television station.
Iet me emphasise that you will be dependent upon a local
station for television because the effective range of n television
hromlcnsting station is going to he about thirty miles.
These are my conclusions after a week spent in Ulkin with
television engineers, visiting studios and sreing television dem
onstrations -David Diet?, in N. Y. "WorM-Tclegram.

that the wretched woman was un

change the destinies of all the world.
This will seem silly or sound, accord
ing to the extent to which you have

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

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.

Pictures Versus Morals
To the Editor:
A few days ago, in one of the
larger Portland papers, I viewed a
picture, with a mixture of horror.
dHwust and revulsion. 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.

It would seem to ma that soma of

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

to work for the re-relectlon of the
