Alwtlolof Boprooestatl.oa Senator Vandenberg Is Right Forbid coercion by unions, alt-down strikes, compulsory union assessments for political purposes and strike called without approval of a majority of employs. Forbid non-cltlcens from serving a union agent or officer. Permit employer to ask the labor board for collective bar gaining elections. Require both parties to a collective bargaining agreement to sign a written contract. Forbid unlona guilty of "unfair labor practices" from collect Ing due or serving as collective bargaining agent. Here are the amendments to the Wagner' Labor Bolationg Act oUfc'Kcsted by Seuator Vandenberg of Michigan. In the opinion of this paper, ALL OF THEM abould be passed. According to reports from Washington, nope of them will be. Tbere are two reasons for this. In the first place, it's hot in Washington, probably the worst summer climate in the country. Everyone is tired out, and anxious to get away from the sticky mess, at the earliest possible moment. Now with the long fight over the Supreme Court, measure ended, tbere will be a general disposition, to call it a day, and postpone controversial legislation, until everyone has bad a breathing spell aud the atmosphere, climatic and political, has cleared, IN the second place, a number of senators and congressmen come up for re-election a year hence. Few of them will care to risk, incurring the enmity of the labor bloc. The subject to their minds will be too "hot" to meddle with at the present time. So in all likelihood, the Vandenberg amendments will never come to a vote at the present session. WHICH is unfortunate. For there can never be peace and stabilitv in the labor field in this country, until the rights of both labor and capital are clearly defined. The Vandenberg measure would bo a long step in this direction. But organized labor has had such a long struggle to get where it is today; has become so and so accustomed to ask for more and more and concede nothing, that any effort to improve the situation, from the standpoint of the welfare of- the country NOW, will meet with its determined resistance. This resistance will have nothing to do with the rights and wrongs of the case, but will be based solely on an extrcmo class consciousness, and the ingrained habit of opposing any suggestions of change, coming from anyone but themselves. WHICH, also is unfortunate, eountrv but for organized unreasonable and militant attitude prevails, the more certain is that popular reaction against labor, which will mean a serious decline if not its fall. For the people of this country, are in no mood to accept any f6rm of dictatorship, no matter from what source it may come. At one time Big Business Court effort, President Boosevelt labor as represented by John L, ants, are attempting it. It can't the harder they will fall. THE Wagner Act is a one sided affair, designed to grant the riorhts of labor, without imposing equal responsibilities, or granting similar rights to capital. This is wrong. Senator Vandenberg in offering these amendments is merely trying to correct these wrongs. We fnil to see a single provision in the list above, to which any fair minded person could object. BUT unless we aro mistaken, in the eountrv will object, solidly massed against such action. So whether we like it or don t, the tight will, nave to go on. BUT as before stated, nothing is really settled until it is settled right. In his effort to secure a sqnare deal for all sides in this controversy between labor and capital, the Michigan senator is EIGHT. He will probably get nowhere for the reasons above stated at this session. But eventually, as certain as the rising of the sun tomorrow, the principles he stands for will win. The sooner the leaders of organized labor see this, the better for them, their followers, and nil concerned qqWclntyre NEW YORK, July 36.

Calif VITAMIN DEPLETION IN COLITIS Chemical analysis of tha blood In casta of chronic colitis, whether ulcerative or tho more common "mucous" colitis, M generally show a aecioea a p i e tlon or deflc- d lency of the cal cium and phos phorus reserve. In colitis with constant or In termittent diar rhea tbere la a 1 e p 1 e tlon not only of the cal cium and phos phorus reserve In blooa and' tis sual but also of the vitamin reserve and probably of enzymes and hor mones aa well. The function of vita mins lo the animal economy la closely related with the functions of enzymes and hormones. For in stance experience has proved that tn diabetes a dally ration of vita min B to supplement the diet en ables the patient to remain sugar free, that Is to utilize carbohydrate food, on a smaller dose of Insulin Indeed I have endeavored to bring this fact to the attention of dia betes sufferers by calling vitamin B "poor man's insulin" (Friday, September 13, 1036. Again It has been observed that even the hib ernating woodchuck or groundhog will remain awake and at normal activity throughout the winter tf given a dally ration of vitamin D, aa described here Saturday, May 1, 1937). Besides Ita regulating or nor malizing effect on metabolism,- vita min D tends to steady Irritable nerves and restore real lency and tone to weakened Involuntary muscle tis sue. These are good reasons for in cluding vitamin D In the daily vita min ration In all cases of colitis, especially wben the patients have been confined to a restricted diet or when they have been avoiding various foods for fear of aggravating the trouble in the bowel. Abuse of laxatives, aperient and colon Irrigations or so-called "in ternal baths" la set down as one of the common causes of colitis, by Dr. S. W, Patterson in a recent contribution to the London Prac titioner (Feb. '36). Wiseacre Yan kees never hear this warning. Goes In one ear and out the other. They know eo much which ain't so. Sucn abuse hurries foods through the ali mentary tract Incompletely digest ed, tends to keep contents of colon fluid (Instead of solid aa normally), and such fluid material at body temperature Is a favorable culture medium for the growth of bacteria. Of course, many cases of colitis are of Infectious character. Here we are considering rather the com He alts by teletype. . Mrs. Paul Whlteman never misses one of Paul's concerts or broadcasts.

Our records verify this fact, snd there can bo no doubt that the proper kind or advertising such as that put on by the state highway commission plsys an Important part to this end. There Is however some thing else that we seem to be ne glecting. While It may not be the directing Influence that brings the tourist to Oregon It csn be given the credit for keeping the tourist longer In the state thereby getting more of the tourist business for Oreon which ow ing to the wonderful scenic attrac tions la entitled to receive more of thla business than we have been get ting In the past. The records of this chsmber show that through the effort of the clerks st the registration maintained by the chamber It is possible to prolong the visit of 40 percent of the tourists at least one more day and we believe It could be safely aald that another 10 percent Is added by the Intelligent co-operstloy of the many people In this vicinity who deal with the tourist. In order to sell others our scenic attractions we should be sold our selves, and It Is quite possible Mr Cleo. 5abln, msnsger of the Oregon Cave Resort had this In mind when he Invited snout SO of the service .nation and auto camp people to the Cavea last spring sa his guests.

Health and nnltn out to disease mon type of "colitis" where symp toms are troublesome enough yet It is questionable whether there is any actual inflammation (colon Inflam mation, colitis) present. In these chronic cases constipation is as fre quent as diarrhea. Often constipa tion and diarrhea alternate. The vitamins colitis patients must have sre: I. Vitamin C, which may be ob tained from a few ounces of strain ed orange juice or strained tomato juice dally, in any case, with any diet. a. Vitamin B (and B3 or O as we call it today. Invariably asso ciated with B). the richest known source of which Is dried pasteurized brewer's yeast. 3. Vitamin V, which may be ob tained in yolk of egg, fresh whole milk, cream or butter. Halibut liver oil is far richer in Vitamin D than cod liver oil. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Sarcoma Man died from sarcoma. Ia that cancer? Doctor said not, but friends say doctor la misleading us. (Mrs. S. O. E.) Answer Yes. sarcoma la a rapidly growing and quickly fatal type of cancer, of unknown cause, occurring In persona of any age, often appar ently from some Insignificant Injury or .bruise, ' spreading by "metasls aa doctors say, meaning that a par ticle of the cancer breaks off and travels through the blood stream to lodge In some distant part of the body and set up secondary growth there. No evidence that sarcoma ts communicable or hereditary, raronla Kindley let mo know at what hos pitals they treat patients afflicted with parapola, or can such patients be treated In any hospital? (N. W.) Answer At state or provincial in stitutions for the Insane, or In some private sanitariums. In any event one or more physicians who have examined the pattont must certify or give an opinion that such Insti tutional treatment Is advisable. Catoract I am diabetic. One of best doctors tells me I have cataract growing over both eyes. He says Insulin treatment will retard growth of cat aracts. (Mra. W. B. J.) Answer Cataract is clouding ot lens In the eyeball, not a film grow ing over or upon the surface. In sulin treatment should retard the process. Optimal dally rations of vitamin B, D and O should supple ment the diet. bd Notes Persons wishing to communicate wltb Ur. Brady should send letter direct to Dr. 1 Wtlllam Brady. M.

President Roosevelt ha suffer ed hla first major defeat. 9. Congress I tired of being a rubber stamp. , NO AMOUNT of fsoe-aanng can cover up the defeat suffered by the President. Bis plan to seize con trol of the supreme court was killed by DEMOCRATS. The little handful of Republican la the senate merely added to the majority. The President' preposterou and amazing scheme, who adoption he baa consistently demanded, was re pudiated by bis own party. AS TT became definitely apparent that the court bill was deed, Senator Hiram Johnson ,of California, exclaimed: "Qlory be to Godl" Millions of Americana will Join with blm In that aentlment. Bring ing the supreme court under control of the executive would have been the first step toward undermining the constitution, and throughout the world today the disastrous conse quences of undermining constitution al government are only too plainly apparent. We can not be too thankful that we have avoided taking that atcp. THB founders of our nation gave to ua a system of government with three independent branches the legislative, which is congress; the Judicial, which is the courts; and the executive, which Is the President. For more than four years, congress has been In a state of abject surren der to the President, doing his bid ding without question going so far as to pass without reading bills that came to It like edicts .from a throne. But even a congress that baa sub missively taken orders on almost every other subject BALKED at hamstring ing the Independence of the courts. If it had not, the system of three independent branches of government handed down to us by our wise fore fathers would have been wrecked. THE defeat of the President, sting ing as it was, Is an Incident, which he himself Invited. Presidents have been defeated before, and will be again. But the reassertlon by congress of Its own Independence Is an event that will loom largo In his tory. Thursday was a big day for Amer ica. I oi ii Urlest Wet State DES MOINES. Ia.

The speech la now molderlng to Senator Burke's desk. It took three months to prepare. It would nave taken, perhaps, six hours to deliver. It Is one of love's lost labors, and one of the many which the Neb raska senator performed and for which he will never get credit. He never had a chance to say much on the floor, but he was In the thick of the fight and his offices were among the busiest congress hss ever seen. The public worka lobby built up by Captain Jabes G hols ton. director of the interior depsrtment's Inspec tion service, was a much bigger en ternrlse than waa officially revealed when Secretary Jckes discharged his No. I plainclothes man. It involved "a large number of field officers and employes" and in cluded a canvass of "the whole field service. Including state directors and district project directors and audi tors." Government stationery and gov ernment time were used In the ex fort "to induce atate and municipal officers to send Identical messages to Influence members of congress to vote for the continuance of legis lation affecting PWA.

Captain Gholston was called up at hla residence by thla writer short ly after he resigned, he declined to answer question over the telephone "This line Is tapped," he said. The president says he has not considered Mr. justice van oevan ter's successor. Some say he can't, and now even Senator Borah Is becoming concerned over the mat ter. There has been an ominous ruf' fling of reference works at the cap- ltol of late. A number of senators. largely Inspired by the Idahoan, are considering raising the question of whether or not there really la a vacancy on the supreme bench. Justice Van Devanter did not re sign. He retired under the provis ions of the . Sumners-McCarran act and atlll draws his full pay. Some of the constitutionalists are saying: "He can't do that under the constitution. He's still a member of the bench subject to call;" These people point to the fact that no successor can therefore be named until the situation Is clarl fled.
