Notice to RedsKeep Out!
IN two or three weeks, the annual pear harvest will start, in
the valley.
Needless to say, the result
the welfare of this section of the state, and everyone in it.
The rear crop is a perishable crop. It must be picked within
a certain limited period, and either shipped to market, or placed
in cold storage.
ANY portion of the crop not taken from the treea during
this limited period, will be a total loss, a loss not only to
the owner of the crop, but a loss to those who would normally
be engaged in picking and packing it, transporting it, and
furnishing materials for placing it in the hands of the consumer.
I.e. a loss to BOTH local capital and LABOR, alike.
WE believe we are merely expressing the overwhelming
sentiment of this community, when we state, there is
determination, ON ALL' SIDES, to see this year's crop is har
vested without interference or
But because of the widespread labor unrest throughout the
country; the tidal wave of unionization; the conflict between
the A. F. L and C. I. 0., etc., etc., etc., there has been and is
today, a strong under current of fear, that this won't be done.
Some even believe there will be trouble, perhaps serious
trouble, and at the present writing are rapidly approaching
an acute state of the jitters.
THIS paper can see no cause for any such alarm. And our
advice to those thus afflicted, is to snap out of it and forget
it. Getting unduly excited, at this stage of the game, would
merely invite the condition, that everyone wishes to avoid.
Even if some of the fears entertained are justified the more
SERIOUS tho crisis, the GREATER the need for cool heads,
wise counsel, sane and restrained leadership. There is no
proper place for hysteria in the local picture, from any standpoint.
In fact, as we' view the situation there 'is only one real
danger in the entire situation, and that rather a remote one.
To-wit: the importation of radical agitators, to raise trouble
on behalf of the communist wing of the C. I. 0.
FAR be it from us, to join in the red-baiting, "witch-hunting''
nonsense of certain reactionary elements in this country.
We have only contempt for those who try to injure the cause
of organized lnbor by maintaining that its leadership is inspired
by Moscow, or that John L. Lewis is in realty a Bolshevik
in disguise, and his lieutenants, talje their orders from the
Kremlin. This is merely hokum stupid and vicious hokum.
But we DO know and every
there is a small group of avowed Communists, boring from
within,, in a deliberate effort to secure the overthrow of this
government. And a large proportion of them, (some say
most of them) arc using the C. T. 0. as a smoke screen to
advance their cause, and achieve their purpose, which is a
dictatorship of the proletariat.
"TIIEY care nothing about helping the working man in this
country. In fact, the more dissatisfied and resentful the
Amerioan workman is, the better the Communist likes it. For
that propares the seed bed, for his heart's desire, a revolution
by violence.
So they gravitate, to scenes of labor conflict as naturally as
vultures gravitate to battle fields, and for the same purpose.
If there are none near at hand, they, do all they can to. make
them. .The perishable fruit centers, where time is the essence,
and serious trouble may not only impair the crops, but destroy
them, are among their favorite scenes of action. For the emer
gency gives them a heavy club to swing and do they SWING itl
YES this represents a danger, a real danger but as we
viato it fliA rmlv rlnno-flr. TherA la nnthincr pIra in the
picture, that represents even remotely a problem that can't be
amicably solved, to the satisfaction of all concerned.
Local labor is organizing.
legal. A large number of farmers and fruit growers have also
organized, that is their right also, and for the same reasons.
One group has just as much interest in the successful har
vesting and marketing of this year's pear crop as the other.
Such an outcome, not only during harvest time but throughout
the year means more money for them both. . And more money
for everyone in the entire community also.
SO as above stated there is no cloud on the local horizon,
but this red cloud. And that isn't as big as a camel, nor
as red as the ws.ttles of a turkey cock.
We grant however it SHOULD BE WATCHED I
And this goes particularly for the workers themselves. For
they have as much, or more, to fear, from Communist agitation
than anyone else. And they will be the ones upon whom the
Bolos will concentrate, from the outset.
SO watch out boys and girls. Don't shoot until you see the
whites of their eyes, but if their eyes turn red, then give
them a loud and raucous horse laugh.
For we don't want any more trouble makers and verbal
dynamiters in this community. We have had enough of that
too much in fact.
We have our troubles, of course. Every community has.
We have differences of opinion regarding this that and the
other thing. Even' community has.
But we can settle these thinss, peacefully and satisfactorily
ourselves thank you, and don't need any professional hellraiser
from Communist headquarters or ANYWHERE ELSE to tell
us how to do ill

Loss of appetite, that is for proper
food, Is one characteristic feature or
sgymptom of multiple neuritis,
whether It be oriental polyneuritis
(beriberi) or dampbool Yankee alco
holic neuritis. Both maladies are
due to prolonged extreme shortage of
vitamin B. Thla fact Is slowly per
meating the medical mind there are
still many physicians here In Amer-
cla who scarcely comprehend that so
called alcoholic neuritis Is a nutri
tional deficiency and calls for all the
vitamin B the victim can take In any
form or manner. Twenty per cent
of all cases of poly-neurltls, accord
ing to Vorhaus (Dig. Dla. and Nutr.
3, .816, '37), have Intensification or
aggravation of neuritis pain a few
days after vitamin B treatment be
gins lasting for nearly a week, before
the steady Improvement becomes evi
dent. Zn all neuritis cases it Is well
to remember this.
If Increased Intake of vitamins and
minerals, or Just vitamins, restores
lost appetite or Improves poor appe
tite, as It does In beriberi, alcoholic
neuritis and many vague cases of
"below-par" condition, how can the
same treatment curb excessive or ab

a good many critics who speak first

some Idea what alls you and what
you should do about It.
Sleep As You Like It

but now everything seems to whirl
around even with the pillow under
my head and when I lie on left side.
Is this what any woman should ex
pect at a certain time In life? (A. R.)

your age and the position In which
you sleep have nothing to do with It.
Discard those silly notions and con

By FRANK JENKINS
CHARLES P. KETTERING, aa noted
V In thla column Friday predict
that automobile will change as much
In ths next 38 yeara aa they have
changed the past 38. But he doesn't
predict HOW they will change.
"The automobile Industry," he
says," has never been able to predict
what It will offer to tba public two
yeara In advance.
If we knew what the car of 10 or
38 yeara hence waa going to look like,
we would be building It now."
HE doea think, however, that en
gine are likely to be moved
from the front to the rear, as that will
provide better visibility which will In
turn tend to promote safety. Engines
In tha rear, be says, will also help to
eliminate noise, heat and smell, and
will allow lower floor boards.
Ths trouble 1 thai If cars are to
drive easily and ssfely weight must be
distributed equslly on front and rear
wheels. If thla la to be accomplished,
engines must be brought down to
about half their present weight. ,
ROADS, according to Mr, Kettering,
are tremendously Important to
the future development of the auto
mobile. He doesnt think people are going
to atand for lower speeds, and he
fears that devices such aa mechanical
governors will add to danger more
than lessen It. If you ever had to
"atep on It" to get out of a tight
place, you will know what he means.
Roads, he thinks will, hsve to be
wider and atralghter, and In the cities
better arrangements for parking will
have to be made.
CITIES, Mr. Kettering believes, will
have to "spread out." He foresees
the possibility of "ribbon" cities
that is, an almost continuous popu
lation on both aldea of great trunk
hlghwaya.
He thinks Industry la going to
spread out Into the country, as work
men of the future will find It possible
to live as much aa 80 miles from their
Jobs. -
ILLUMINATION will slso be an Im
portant problem of the future, as
night driving la already three or four
times aa hazardous aa driving In day
light hours.
Great trunk hlghwaya between large
cities will be artificially Illuminated,
but for most of our night driving
for a long time to come we will have
to depend on Illumination from the
cars themselves, as at present.
Car lighting, however, la capable of
great Improvement from the stand
point of safety.
ONI auggestton, he ssys. Is equip
ping sll cars with headllghtsj
capable of producing a beam of either
of two colors, and providing wind
shield, with screens of the same col
ors. Cars traveling north and east, for
example, might be required to use
blue lights and blue 'screens. Cars
traveling south and west would use
(say) orange-red lights and screens.
Thus the screens on each car would
filter out the light from the ap
proaching car and the driver would
see only his own lights on the road
ahead of him.
THE Importance of all these prob
lems may be understood In the
light of Mr. Kettering's prediction
that In the next 38 yeara we shall
have to provide roads for at least 80
per cent more cars than we now hsve.
If that la true, we're a long way
from through with highway building.

tached the Oxford movement today
aa "exhibitionist" and called upon
churches to discourage it.
Citing recent criticism of the relig
ious group. Including that of Mar
garet Rawllngs, actress, wbo called It
"shocking," the newspaper said the
movement should be halted.
"Its methods open the door to an
exhibitionist tendency which Is harm
ful both to the Individual and to the
true cause of religion.
'"The time has come when the
churches should speak frankly to their
followers about buchmanlsm, making
it clear they have no hope of Its val
ue and frown upon its practice.
The groups are not connected with
Oxford university, nor are they In any
sense expressive of the English atti
tude to religion."
Pointing out that the movement
began in the United States, the Stan
dard said the group's appeal Is "to
a higher social class than the old
American religious revivals and
by reason of their polish the the
methods of the groups are all the

Ye Poets Comer
The Country
I like to live out In the country, '
Away from the city's noise:
Among the people residing there
The people who breathe the country
air
Whose hearts are big and whose ways
are square
And their little girls and boys.
I like to live out In the country.
Where the sturdy people dwell;
The clear-eyed men who my hand
will shake
With a grip that makes my fingers
ache
And a look that carries no mistake
Of a welcome warm, as well.
And what shall I say of the women,
Who live in the country too:
Reliant women, devoid of fear,
Who steadily face from year to year
Whatever of hardship that may ap
, pear
And to them much praise Is due.
Tie the men who have built the
country
But where would they be today . .
If the women had failed to do their
part
And help them along with hand and
heart,
From the time when first they made
their start
And stay with them all the way? .
And the little ones of. the country
The generation to be
Clean-limbed and wholesome, willing
and strong,
They will take up their work with a
merry song.
Loving the country where they be
long And proud of their pedigree.
