Aug. 14 ,&) Twenty-six autorooHla mechanics oiitan Ireij today arid applied to the API. for a charter in the International Machinist uniun. Editorial Correspondence WASHINGTON, D. C, Aug. 12 The happiest man in "Wash ington today is Senator McNary of Oregon. The senator, Mrs. McNary and their baby daughter leave at 4 o'clock this after noon for Salcrn, Oregon. This is the third time the senator has tried to get away from Washington, but nothing short of com bined action by the army and navy is going to stop him this time. And IS he glad! Always a genial and courteous person, Oregon's senior Rolon, would be treading on air, if escape from this Turkish-bath bedlam, to the cool and peaceful shades of his Salem nut ranch were the only consideration. But there are other things to add to his rejoicing. For as Republican minority leader he is departing under the most auspicious circumstances. He goes with the consent and good wishes of the senate, which places no demerit mark against his record; and he goes immediately after scoring a triumph over the opposition, with the congratulations of his party confreres ringing in his ears. For "Charley" put over a fast one, on the new majority leader, Senator Barkley of Kentucky, last night, and knocked that Barkley "harmony dinner" of the night before into the proverbial cocked hat. We won't go into all the technical details, suffice it to say that Barkley who has only been the Democratic leader a short time (replacing the late Senator Robinson of Arkansas) didn't want the controversial anti-lynching bill to come up to jam the works, and when he failed in this direction, tried to kill present consideration by moving for adjournment. We were in the senate gallery at the time and had the pleasure of seeing how quickly and smoothly the McNary mind works. With the urbane grace of an inspired floor walker, the senior senator, countered this proposal with a motion to re cess, 27 Democrats proceeded to desert Barkley and follow his leadership, and the motion to adjourn was beaten by a vote of .15 to 27. This menns the anti-Lynching bill will come up again today, and debate continue perhaps for a week. A little thing perhaps as far as affairs of the nation are concerned, but one of those tactical triumphs, which are greatly cherished in the Upper House, and puts several feathers in "Charley's" enp, as he steps on the Limited this afternoon for Chicago and point west. The incident also demonstrates of course, the present de moralization of the Democratic party. McNary had only 8 votes of his own party, on this anti-administration counter at tack, it M'as put over by recalcitrant" Democrats. One can't blame the Renator from Kentucky for being sore, or replying to an in-rushing senator who after the "call", asked him how to vote : "Don't ask me. Ask McNary. He's the leader. That was a hell of a harmony dinner we had last night 1" Yes, Senator McNary is the happiest man in Washington at the present moment. And he will be still happier when he shedB his white pants for a pair of overalls on his Salem ranch. This is no place for a civilized person to remain, any longer than he has to. It isn't so hot nothing to compare with the temperature on our last visit. But everyone is tired out, what enthusiasm there has been on either side of the political fence, has long since vanished, and the members of both houses are merely going through the motions, waiting for final adjourn ment. Most of this session was taken up with the Supreme Court fight, and when that ended, continuing the session was very much like pulling on Hamlet with Hamlet left out. Ran into Judge Sawyer of Bend in the senate office build ing. The judge flew liere from Portland, via New York, and left on a plane last night for home. Took a "sleeper plane" from Salt Lake and enjoved it verv much though he admitted he didn't "EXACTLY SLEEP." Called to New York on mat ters concerning the state capital murals, he being a prominent member of the state capital commission. Think of it! chatting with him last evening, at the present writing less thnn 24 hours later, he is probably in the air in the general vicinity of Baker, Oregon! (At least as we recall he was due in Portland around 4 p. m. this afternoon.) If a man's time is valuable and he isn't worried about just how he makes his earthly exit, certainly the only way to travel from coast to coast is by plane. The present writer can't qualify as yet on either count. After sun linked Kookford, Washington is very preen and Kfitubrious. It is certainly one of the most beautiful cities in the world and is petting more so every year. Very humid and elose, but as before stated not hot. We didn't fly here but enme on the liberty l.in.ited of the Pennsylvania which is the next thinp to it. bet't Chicago at quarter of four in the after noon, arrived here at 8:1,0 the following morning, and never left the ground except at a few points on the straightaway 1 Senator Stciwer spied us from the floor, and enme up into the gallery for a short chat. The junior senator is looking very well considering what he has been through the year past. There was that keynote speech in Cleveland followed by an operation for gallstones in Denver, Colorado. Judging by his appearance he has recovered entirely from the latter, and his friends will eventually recover from the for mer, no doubt ! However it is hardly fair to judge a man by one sreeoh. d particularly, when one is a confirmed New Dealer at heart Things political are veering in his direction at the present time, and with good health again he should have no trouble in his campaign for renominntion and re-election nest year. The future looks particularly reassuring when one considers his probable opponents. On our Inst visit there were only two gum chewers observed in the senate, the late lluey I,ong and "l.ittle Hob" LaKollette. Since then Wrieley's lobby must have been getting in some good work. Kor we counted half a dozen and the Wisconsin snlon was taking a day off with his Spearmint. The new Democratic leader Barkley leads all the rest and he chews with vim and vigor as he does everything else. In bis staunch, robust, pugilistic stance he reminds one of his genuinely mourned pivd"e.ssor Senator Kobinson, but we have onr doubts about his head work, being up to the standard his colleague set. However onr should make allowances for his short time in the heavyweight champion class. Give him time. Ue may give "Charley" a battle vet. Wandered around the press gallery and listened, also talked to Johnny Kelly of the Orcgonian, Carl Smith of the Journal, and a few others we have seen before. There general aereemeni that the president has slipped badly the first year of his s.-nnd term, but no agreement as to just how far. We should sav a majnrity of the newspaper boys, feel, that in any national referendum, lioosevelt could still give any visible op ponent weight, and beat him to the finish. As one (if the "older boys' expressed it : "Certainly Roosevelt's honeymoon is over. In fact domestic difficulties have Mnrtet in. Hut 1 can see uo sign of divorce proceedings s yet. If we followed the English custom, and called for a vote of Minfiilenee, whenever doubt of popular sup port existed, I woi'M v),v K. D. II. today would win. by four or five milium votes." R. W. K.

I forget how many ele ments In their food, and aa that la not easily done nowadays these gullible souls readily accept the suggestion that one should supplement the dally diet with a few doses of a o m e shotgun combination of an of the essential elements. What I don't know about diet and health will fill many good books a few yeara hence. What the self -constituted "food specialists" and "diet authorities" don't know but yet teach their customers will fill many pages of history too the History ol Nostrums and Quackery In Yankee- land. Having delved earnestly If not credulously Into the subject I have arrived at a practical conclusion con cerning the elements essential In hu man nutrition, and I offer this con clusion here. Take it if you think I understand what I'm talking about, or leave it If you think you know more about It than I do. I believe that as long as you get sufficient calcium, lodin, phosphorus and Iron you are practically certain to get enough of every other element that may be necessary for maintain ing optimal health or vlte as we now call it. Here are lists of foods which are comparatively rich in these elements. Good Sources of Calcium Milk, cheese, cabbage, beans, tur nips, peas, nuts, celery, lettuce, spin ach, asparagus, cauliflower, carrots, oatmeal, dried prunes, oranges, pea nuts. (ond Sources of Phosphorus Beef, milk, cheese, plain wheat, eggs, carrots, dried prunes, potatoes, apples, bananas, beets, oatmeal, oranges, spinach, beans. Good Sources of Iron Egg yolk, wheat bran, dried beans, currants, raisins, peanuts, prunes. NEW YORK, Aug. 14.

I will send to anyone who asks for it and incloses a three-cent stamped envelope bearing his address a mon ograph which tells why and how to use plain wheat In the diet. Altho the problem is still In pro cess of solution, there la good reason to believe that in many Instances where a deficiency of calcium, phos- p horns or Iron occurs the deficiency may be due, not so much to lack of the element In the food, but to lack of vitamin D, which Is essential for normal metabolism of utilization of calcium and phosphorus, or vita min B and O which are essential for normal assimilation of iron.

F THREAT TO NATIONAL PEACE Depression Gave Theorists Chance To Foist Eco nomic Schemes Says Banker. Portland, Aug, 14 (AP) The prin cipal threat to the general well being of the country lies in political dem agogues, economic theorists, social dreamers and' weird legislative pana ceas evolved under the guise of "beneficial legislation," Frank H. Lougher, trust officer of the Anglo California National bank, San Fran cisco, said today. In an address before the closing session of the Pacific Regional Trust conference he said the major danger is found in new "social, economic and political trends end the power and Influence being exerted by dreamers, theorists and politicians who, lacking in business sense them selves, still feel It to be their price less heritage to attack banks and bedevil trust companies through un necessary and ill-conceived legisla tion." "Pains of depression gave the political demagogue these glorious opportunities." he remarked. "Trust companies face a distinct threat from some of the forces inspiring these changes. Some of the proposals made under the guise of beneficial legis lation would, if enacted into law. not only stifle fair competition but would jeopardize the very existence of many trust Institutions. "More of it is coming. You will find your real competition Jammed in the desks of legislators and poli ticians wno hope to ride into popu larity by creating a new and weird social psychology." T TO FOR RUSS FLIERS WASHINGTON, Aug. 14. (UP) The commerce department tonight granted permission to James A. Mat tern, nationally renowned filer, to make an aerial search for the Russian aviators lost on a trans-polar flight from Mlscow. The pilot of the huge four-motored Soviet plane believed forced down in the Arctic wilderness Is Slglsmund Levanevsky, who rescued the curly haired filer a few years ago when he was marooned in a sinerian bog. Just two weeks ago Mattern was granted tentative governmental per mission to make a t ran polar flight of his own next summer from the Pacific coast to Russia. It was announced that Mattern had asked permission of the bureau of air commerce to hunt for Levanevsky and his five companions as soon as word was received that the plane had been grounded. Secretary Daniel C. Raper issued a limited temporary license for the un dertaking. Mattern said he desired to conduct the search as a private citizen and at his own risk. PORTLAVD. Ore.. Aug. 14. (AP) Samuel F. Notson, 70. father of Rob ert Noton. city editor of the Port land Oregonlan and a resident of eastern Oregon since 1896, died in a hospital here today after a long U'.neas. Notson's home was In Heppner and he was the first mayor of Lexington. In 1916. he served as mayor of Hepp ner and In 1030 he was a candidate for congress from the second con gressional district. He was born on March 37. 1667, In Iowa, and after coming to Oregon he engaged in the teaching profes sion, later turning to law and be coming district attorney of Morrow county In 1917. Prior to that he was superintend ent of schools of Morrow county and at one time was president of the Oregon District Attorneys association.

Comment on the Dan s News FRANK JENKINS rM these days the world U full of big talk that rolls sonorously from the tongues of demagogues, but does n't seem to buy much beans and ba con for common folks. Perhaps a few simple, fundamental definitions might be refreshing for a change. f TERE is one: 1 A Money ISNT WEALTH. You can't eat money. You can't wear It. You can't shelter yourself with It. Money la merely a lubricant that oils the wheels of commerce, making them turn faster and with less effort. TINKERING with money (such as A putting less gold In the dollar) never created any wealth, and It NEVER WILL, WEALTH Is created by the applica tion of LABOR to raw mater ials and natural forces. A chunk of iron ore. by Itself, Is valueless, but when by the application of labor it Is melted and refined and made Into a knife or a hammer or a saw or an automobile It becomes WEALTH. ALL the demagogues that ever lived, orating for 24 hours a day, couldnt' make a chunk of Iron ore into a knife or a hammer or a saw or an automobile. Only LABOR can do that. (Who ever saw a demagogue poli tician with a sweaty brow and cal loused hands?) DEBT Is a promise to perform, at some future time, labor or serv ices In exchange for something which is received. Debt is productive only when It Is incurred in order to obtain something useful, such as a BETTER TOOL to work with. It is a BURDEN when it la incur red to obtain something useless, such as a glittering ring to put In your nose or to dangle from your ears. IF you are hauling dirt In a wheel barrow and go In debt for a truck so you can haul MORE DIRT AT LESS COST, you are all right. If you go In debt to get chromium-plated handles for your wheelbarrow, you are all wrong. NO nation ever yet legislated itself into prosperity. NONE EVER WILL. Prosperity arises only out of Increased production c tiling. Things are produced oflly by the application of labor to,' materials. The more we pvoduce, the more we have. The less we produce, the less we have. We CANT HAVE WHAT ISNT PRODUCED. ONE more fundamental before shut up shop for today: All the oratorical wind ever emit ted from the lungs of all the dema gogue politicians who ever lived never built a house, or made a warm coat, or produced a mouthful of food. 4 TO ST.
