The betrothal of a daughter of the enormously wealthy Du Pont family to a eon of the President proves that romance knows no politics. The Du Fonts were the favorite hate of many voters, leu than a month ago, so look out for the allegation Du Pont gold bought up Dsn Cupid. The annual screaming and squeal ing over the mythical atats high school football championship, now rend the air, with each section of the tats, except southern Oregon, pre senting a capable contender both physically and vocally.

A Young Democrat was caught yes terday, who was neither young, mad, nor after a piece of federal pie. Last week It appeared Italy, via Mussolini, was aching for a war witn Germany, in quiet diplomatic way.

"The editor who attempts to run a column of poetry would get himself into more trouble than If he dis cussed religion or politics. There are more embryo poets in this country than there are fl'aa on a dog and they are Just about as annoying. If the Inquirer could see some of the home made "poetry" that comes to sn editor for publication, the verses themselves would answer the ques tion. That doesn't mean that all home made verse Is bad. Borne of It Is very good Indeed, but. let sn editor turn down some pet verse and he has made an enemy forever. It Is about as ssfe as abusing the writer's chil dren. 80. most editors. esiecially of ' small papers, steer shy of amateur poetry." (Corvallla aaselte-Tlmea.)

This means man, woman and child in the county. Because of a bumper turkey crop in Oregon and the country at large, the turkey price has been depressed, and the maritime strike, by shutting off boat shipments, has reduced the normal demand. Turkey growers in the valley, therefore, face a serious pre dicament. Unless local consumption can be increased, many of them stand to suffer a severe loss on their 1936 crop. The Thanksgiving demand is fixed and can't be materially increased. But the Chamber of Commerce has hit vpon a way out, by instituting a series of "turkey weeks," between now and Christmas. During this period, appeals will be made to all and sundry, to eat as much turkey as their pocket books and appetites allow. The Mail Tribune regards this as a good idea, and the sooner it is put into operation the better. For turkey feed is high, and the longer Mr. Turk is fed, the less the net profit to the grower, when he is finally dispatched. An immediate increase in turkey consumption therefore, would benefit the local growers, and by increasing their profit and putting'more money in circulation benefit the entire community. So we are glad to give pur endorsement to this turkey week program. We can see nothing against such a program and every thing for it. The Chamber of Commerce has evolved a good thing, it is now up to the community as a whole, to get turkey conscious and push it along, A New Deal For Strikes THE maritime strike has been going on for two weeks and a half. There have been frequent reports of a settlement, so many in fact, that no one pays any attention to them any more. As the strike drags on and slowly spreads there is an increas ing demand, that President Roosevelt personally intervene and use the power of his office and his personal prestige, to enforce peace upon the warring factions. , Thoso who urge such action point to T. R. 's habit of waving the big stick, and President Cleveland's squashing of the Pull man strike by calling out the U. S army. It is somewhat amusing that those who lead in such a de mand, are Those who during the recent campaign were most seriously alarmed, by what tbey President Cleveland's action, desirable as were its results, was one of the most striking examples of the usurpation of pow er and authority by the one man sitting in the White House, in our country's history. Under the circumstances which existed in Illinois at the time such drastio action may have been justi fied, there was bloodshed, the U. S. mails, had been burned but no such conditions exist anywhere in the country at present, and if they did, a declaration of martial law, and tho calling out of troopB by a president could by no stretch of the imagina tion be termed in harmony, with a government of checksum! halances and the normal American way of life. No, we think neither T. R. and his big stock nor Grover Clovoland and his order to the war department, should be held up 11s precedents for President Roosevelt to follow at the pres ont time. W13 do. believe, however, that unless a settlement is reached within the very near future, the poliey of watchful wait-l ing in Washington should be dropped. It is reasonably clear the Maritime Commission was either unprepared to handle the sit uation, or lacked the authority to do so. From all accounts As sistant Secretary of Labor McGrady has attacked the problem with vigor, intelligence and admirable persistence, but again judging by press reports, be has reached the end of his rope. IF this is the truth of the situation then we would like to see President Roosevelt appoint a special board of mediation, composed of outstanding citizens of the highest reputation for integrity and fairness, theso men to be his personal represen tatives, with full power to net. And at the same time, if the President would deliver to the people of the country a special message, urging reasonableness on both sides, and a prompt settlement of differences, for large, we believe, such action beneficial results. As before stated in this column, we believe there should be a definite national labor code drawn up, with special labor courts, to enforce its provisions, but in lieu of such an arrange ment, and with the strike going on day after day. it is 'our considered judgment, the time has come to drift no longer, but for the administration, through the President to demand from both sides a new deal, and through it a prompt settlement.

The maritime strike I alio held to U sn advene factor as nearly 2 turkeys for every .called executive dictatorship. the welfare of the country at would bring quick, and most It has closed out the Alaska, Hawaii and Philippine markets. Conditions, r-ere. however, are said to be more favorable than in most other part of the country where the surplus la heavier and extremely low prices to growers are prevailing. Current price here are quoted at few cents under the scale prevailing at the same time last year. The marketable crop In Jackson county this year Is estimated by County Agent R, a.

THE ATTACK OF The veins enlarged, dilated, varl cosed or .swollen in the condition called piles or hemorrho!de empty porwi vein wmcn i l - 1-1 -1 collects blood from the alimen tary tract and carries it to the liver. Any en gorgement, con gestlon or over loading of the portal system or the liver there fore predisposes to piles or pre cipitates an "at tack" of piles If one 10 subject to the trouble. More over the hemorrhoidal veins have no -valves and so tn the upright posture their walls must support the weight or pressure of a column of blood extending from the pile area to the leval of the diaphragm or midriff. Persons subject to hemorrhoids or piles may be unaware of the pres ence of any trouble unless It hap pens that the Internal varicosity bleeds enough to warn that there is something wrong or becomes In flamed and protrudes or prolapses, or becomes . externally thrombosed (clotted) and exceedingly painful. One with piles usually has such at tacks" at Intervals; In the Intervals between "attacks" the victim may be persuaded the piles have been "cured." but the cure, whether spon taneous or brought about by treat ment, lasts until the next "attack." Sometimes a victim of piles actu ally achieves a spontaneous or natu ral cure the pile becomes extern Ally thrombosed or clotted and In flamed and or course very painful (or several days, and finally the clqt shrivels or becomes organized Into fibrous or scar tissue and obliterates the varicose vein In the process of healing a permanent cure of that particular hemorrhoid. Whether cured by nature or by surgery or by diathermy or by In jection treatment, the obliteration of one pile or hemorrhoid Is no greater assurance against future de velopment of piles or hemorrhoids than the patient had before the first attack. If the original causative fac tors are not corrected, new piles may develop as readily as did the original pile. People are pretty dumb. They actually expect obliteration of piles to Immunize them against any Mich trouble In the future. ' There is practically nothing the victim can do for bleeding piles ex cept to remain quiet and keep off the feet until care can be had. and )!,yjpr02j nf ' J NEW YORK, Nov. 17. Few celebri ties of the New York parade have so completely withdrawn' from the spot light as Alexan der W o o 1 -cott. Conspicu ous for years as a dramatic critic, quondam actor and a streak in the Algonquin's literary pastrami, he la now seen but feldom. A radio talk now then and that Is all. Over night he chucked his page In The New Yorker and got out of reach of the frantic editors. He withdrew from regular radio broadcasting when he could avail himself of a number of choice offers. Magazine editors find him vague in their overtures. Also book publishers. He disposed of his East Sid apart ment, "Wit's End." And the haunts he used to grace now and then see him no more. Naturally, there are flocks of rumors as to the why of his evanlshment and, like most, such rumors are likely bunkered In mere guesses. Some say rae Is Intent on conquer Ing the obesity that besets him. Oth ers say he plans to make the most of a college trusteeship and lead the cloistered life of a savant.

Then there was Benjamin Duke, the millionaire, who seemed loneliest of all the Pea cock Alley wanderers. He loved old hymns, collected and bummed them as he strolled about. The Waldorf hived many rich eccentrics. No hotel today has the spacious public rooms of the old Waldorf. Space has become too precious.

Aftermath: I visited the other eve-1 nlng in a home of gentle folk, a watchmaker and his white-haired I wife. They had a Belgian-born maid the substantially built, high cheek ! boned Flemish type of the Rmbrantlt prints. She had gone through the war and saw her entire family mas sacred and her home in smoking ruins as she fled In her night dress. A re flex from the horror Is an uncon trollable blinking of the eyes. An in defatigable worker, she cannot stand a sudden noise. It causes her to stand in her tracks and tremble as though in seizure of an ague, and is followed by s freshet of tears. The snacjt bar business has become one of the surprise commercial mush rooms like the Tom Thumb golf craze. And so tempting are the dis plays of tld-blts that restaurateur are yowling they are killing off their dinner trade. The Idea is making New York a 5 to 7 p.m. town.

IN this column a few weeks ago, Til Glaize, who was killed In a gun fight back In the early days of the Harney valley country, was referred to as a "bad man." Limey Slsemore tells this writer that application of the term "bad man" to Glaize Is an Injustice. "T is true," Llnsey says, "that Til 1 Glatze had killed a couple of men at Dallas, In the Willamette valley, before he came to the Burns country, and It is also true that he was a saloonkeeper over there. But back In the early days saloonkeepers were often among our most responsible citizens, and the quarrel In which Glaize killed these men was forced on him, and he shot to save his own life. "If he hadn't killed them they would have killed him.' A FTER the shooting In the Wll r lamette valley. Til came to the Harney valley, which was then a raw, new country. He was taken on as a hand by one of the big cattle outfits, and a part of his Job was scaring off settlers who were thinking of horae steadlng range land. "I met him shortly after I came, as a raw youngster, to the Burns coun try. I walked Into a saloon. Til was lounging at the bar, standing with his back to It and his elbows resting on the edge. He was tall, well-built good-looking altogether quite im pressive. '"Have a drink?' he offered, and I accepted. 'piaURING onstaying here, kid, jT or getting out?' he asked, "I looked him over. Ho had a gun at his belt. He had a cool eye, . I laughed. 'Well.' I said. 'I'm just a roving buc karoo, and I can stay or X can move on, whichever seems health iest.' , "His face lit up with a grin. 'Aw, hell,' he said. 'I didn't mean it that way. Better stay.' " STAYED. And I got well ac 1 quatnted with Til Glaize went partners with him in a small way, in a race horse. "In the back of his mind was al ways the thought that someone was after him for the killing over across the mountains. He was as cautious as a cat. Riding the range, his eye was always scanning tho sago brush ridges. When another horseman ap peared, he became nervous and watch ful. In a room, he didn't stand with his back to a door. Whenever and wherever he slept, a gun was under his pillow. "But he was really a fine man and he had a fine family of girls. He had a bubbling sense of humor, and his views were nearly always sound and sensible. I thought a lot of him." "rT'IL died In a gun fight again in a 1 quarrel that was forced on htm The man who'd quarreled with h'rn came In to get him. Til had to de fend his life. The guns roared, and when the smoke cleared away both were dead. "He lived In a rough country and a rough time, and he met each situa tion as it arose, with the promptness that was necessary If one wanted to go on living In those dsya. "But he was no bad man. Communications Answers ffn. Csrle. To ths Editor: I hsve ben asked to write, an article In reply to the last long' wtndsd one written by the Rv. Blllle Carle. Well, to make a long story short, I don't believe In kicking a man when he's down, snd according to Mr. Carle's own confession, he ts practically a man without country since Rooserelt hss been elected. He Is standing with his back to the wall, with nothing to keep him from going to destruction but the supreme court, which, according to his belter, Roosevelt Is going to wipe off the face of the earth In a very short time. Then poor old Blllle will hsve no plsce to hide his head nor any friends unless It would be Al Smith and Hoover, Perhaps they would take him ovar to South Africa where the great en glneer used to hold forth among the Ignorant natives. So all I will say la for the Rev. Blllle to read the last communication that Vern Marshall wrote to the Tribune end study It well, snd perhaps It will help him to get along awhile longer. That la all I have to say at the present time, JOHN B. GRimN. Medford. November 17. YOUTH KILLED WHEN AUTO LEAVES ROAD BURNS. Nov. 17. API Eighteen year old Oeoi-e Rlchter of Burna was killed when his car left the highway and overturned near Hlnes bill. His compsnlon, Elmer c&rlaon, 17. re ceived only minor Injuries.

Y.. was the dsughter of Dr. Wlillsm C. Murphy, graduate of the University of Oreeon medical s.-hwi and a Nobel prire winner. It aas learned today. IBB (Continued from Page One ) undoubtedly be adopted, because above all things, the AAA -ers are de termined upon two purposes: (a) to accomplish some form of production control, and (b) to have the federal government do It. Some war department official had a mental lapse when he authorized the announcement of improvements to be made In the seaplane harbor at Midway island. At least, the navy thought so. The beards of all ad mirals turned skyward in unison when the information was given out The navy knew nothing, did not went to know anything and dented every thing. Apparently they were afraid of what Japan would think. As a matter of fact, there was nothing to It. It all happened this way: Pan-American Airways promoted a resolution in congress last session, authorizing surveys by the army en gineers of possible seaplane landing facilities at various points along their new route to the Philippines. Now P. A. may be Interested In national defense, but It is primarily Inter ested in P. A. It wanted to make use of Pacific harbor facilities for its own commercial planes. Of course, its representatives did not stress that, but naturally played up the national defense angle to Impress congress men. cdngreas authorized the surveys. The engineers are now reporting In favor of Improvements, not only at Midway, but at Wake. And tbey want not only to improve the harbors but to build seaplane basins, protective breakwaters, etc. The basin at Midway is to be only eight feet deep and 1.200 feet square, however, and could not houM enough navy seaplanes to disturb the birds, much leas the Japanese. The ensuing press racket Is about all you will hear on the Pacific isl and mess. Certainly you will not hear an official protest from Japan. The Japanese are the ones who started perfecting the "commercial facilities" of the Pacific, especially In Islands where there is no commerce worth mentioning. They have dug out all their mandated Island har bors, not to the depth, of eight to 20 feet for seaplanes, but deep enough for ships. Including battleships. The next thing you know, someone may be erecting 20-lnch guns, out In the middle of the Pacific for the commercial purpose of consuming powder. President Roosevelt 's certainly thinking along Jeffersonlan lines re garding his second Inaugural cere-, mony. Someone asked him how sim ple he Intended the simplicity of it to be, whereupon he responded that he did not know yet whether he would Just "go up and hitch my auto to a tree." Contrary to the popular notion, Jefferson did not hitch hJa horse to the capltol fence. He strolled up from bis boarding houM a few hun dred yards away. The conyevance may be immate rial. He did bury government by the colonial aristocracy forever after he got there. PHILIP: I could hardly wait to get back to see you again. To be able to see you every day, to have you beside me, in the same office with me, seems the most important thing in the world. SALLY: You're my best friend, Philip. But what you really feel for me is what I feel for you friendship. PHILIP: No. I know I love you.
