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

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

Whlteman never misses one of Paul's

Communications
Induce Them to Linger
Dear Editor:
The Cave City Chamber of Com
merce la very much Interested In
the reports of the Increasing number
of tourists traveling Oregon high
ways. 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. Re
sult, a record for the Oregon Caves,
a larger harvest of tourist dollars
for our state.

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.

Comment
on the
Day s News
By FRANK JENKINS
rO fact of great political sig
nificance stand out of Thursday's
development In Waahlngton:
1. 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

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.
Secretary Ickea, whose phrases are
quoted above, has Issued a letter
to all officers end employee of the
PWA. telling the whole story and
sounding the warning that sucn
practices are Illegal as well as in
subordinate.
Captain Gholston was called up
at hla residence by thla writer short
ly after he resigned, he declined to

"This line Is tapped," he said.

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.
