The dance went on while bombs were fall ing in China." No statesman or diplomat, out of range of shot and shell, can orator leally plead for pesos, on an empty atomach. There they were In Geneva, gunllng and gobbling the champagne and ravlar, and waltilng with fair ladles, "while bombs fell In China." Properly dressed and soclslly charm ing, the peace makers fearlessly ate. and faced the danger of getting hit In tbe eye with an olive seed, cata pulted from finger and thumb, by a delegate, who, mayhap lingered too long at the punch-bowl. - The cool and chilly eves have put the feminine hoseless fad on 1U last legs. .

What Price, Politics? IF matters proceed as at present, when tbe state primaries come around, the Democratic party in Oregon, will be split as wide open as the two yawning sides of the Grand Canyon of the Colorado. The cause of the split will be Bonneville, and the policy to be pursued in the distribution of the power to be generated on the Columbia river. It promises to be the familiar vote catching issue of electric light and power, "at no cost to One faction will maintain, the proletariat of this state, way of cheap light and power; tain, their opponents are determined to prevent the legitimate industrial development of this ON the surface it will look like a real battle on the solid rock of conflicting principles. In reality however, it will be only a sham battle for Bonneville and a real battle for the oontrol of the Democratic party in this state. . Walter Pierce wants to regain old familiar power trust cry, looks like the easiest way to get it. Which is too bad, too bad too bad for the state. FOE there is no BEAL reason, why the two factions, of the Tiamnprntin nnrtv nnA ihtt neonl of t.hfl Rtnt.A p.nrt't. hp united behind a program for Bonneville which will be satisfac tory to all concerned. A program that will stimulate industrial development in this state, increasing the state's production and wealth, adding new pay rolls, will directly or indirectly benefit every individual however humble in it. At the same time, this can be done, without depriving any consumer in the Bonne ville area, or anywhere else, of as cheap rates for power and light, as sound business principles permit. The idea that there can be no such industrial development, without handing Bonneville over to the power octopus, and robbing the people of their birthright, may be good politics, but in every other direction it is unmitigated nonsense. mum benefits, in all directions, should be enjoyed by the people ALL the people of this state. But if it is turned into a political football, and utilized as a stepping stone to political power, by the Pierce faction or any other, such an outcome will be impossible. We doubt if it will do any good. But this paper's advice to all concerned, is to forget their political ambitions and partisan animosities and concentrate upon what is best for Bonneville and the welfare of this state. It is essentially a business problem, not a political one. Let principles of good business and common sense, not breast beating demagoguery, prevail.

" These "cultural attaches" are expected to promote the doctrine of (jerman Nazism of course, propaganda agents. When we made our treaty with ment distinctly forbade Russia to send propagandists into this country. The Russians officially, or at least on the surface of things, have been decently mindful of their obligations. Now as between the tyranny of a dictatorship of the proletariat and dictatorship of Ihe plutocracy that Is to say the dictatorship of of Nazism, theie is no difference so far as democracy goes. Yet we allow these "cultural attaches" of Germany to come and start their propaganda here, to set men marching in uniform on American streets and highways, trying to round up German- Americans and to indoctrinate treasonable to democracy. Is it fair to deny the Russians privileges which the Nazis take without by-your-loavet The exercise of both privileges threatens American institutions. The nerve of these Nnzis! TTUE head of the Nazi organization in this country, replying to a charge that the American Nais were organizing to control the country, replied, "It's a laugh." Which it is. Also, the Nazi leader's statement that the Nazis only expect to get into action when the another laugh. There is just exactly the same danger in this couutry of a Communist revolution that there is of a Nazi revo lution no more, no less. And ss between the two fake saviours of society the dictatorship of the proletariat and the dictator ship of the fanatical Nazis there is no difference. The average citizen who loves his flag and cherishes his liberty may well bo cautioned liberty and furthermore that the flag floats only when and where citizens respect the liberty of others. All we can do about the silly Nazis and the wall-eyed Communists is to let them rave. It is an outbreak of a children's diseast? mental, of course, and for the infantile mind and it will pass. Indeed both of these epidemics will pass, Nazism and Communism in America, if we do not try to irritate, inflame or throttle either. Both will die of their own poison.

HORMONE TREATMENT The age of puberty, when the In dividual becomes capable of repro duction, la 14 yean ta boys, 12 years - for girls, on the avenge, and the law fixes these aa the ages of presumptive pu berty. Actually It varies from 1 1 to 16 In boys, from 10 to 15 In girls. Puberty generally occurs earlier In tropi cal or subtropi cal countries, lat er In north tem perate ciime. In sufficient milk, cheese, cream and other dairy or milk products In the child's diet favore precocious sexual development and consequent abnor mal organic differentiations and psy chological behavior, it might be a boon to the race If the consumption of milk and milk products were In creased and the consumption of to bacco restricted among children In yankeeiand. In the Bulletin of the Aoa4emy of Medicine, August, 1937, Dr. Arthur J. Cramer, Buffalo, presents a clinical report of the results obtained in the treatment of twenty consecutive pa tients ror undescedend tests with Anterior Pituitary hormone one dose injected sbucutaneously two or tnree times a week. He says that usually fiOOO units (50 doses) are sufficient for a fair trial of the treat ment. The Ideal age for this treatment is from 9 to 13 years, and non-descent of one or both testa generally re sponds to the treatment In 70 per cent of cases if there is no mechani cal obstruction to descent due to a congenita anomaly. Of course, In such cases only surgery will correct tbe condition. The majority of cases of unilateral undescended tests or cryptorchidism have some such me chanical obstruction and it Is in these unilateral cases that most fail ures occur in the hormone treatment. The prospect for success seems to be better when both tests are unde scended. I Spontaneous descent of the tea- j tides may occur In such cases with tbe onset of puberty, that Is, about the age of 14 years. But a course of hormone treatment would seem advisable in any case If spontaneous QO.Mclntyre NEW YORK, Oct. 7. No trade or craft ever dies out wholly. The hu man race has an instinct for keeping alive . sklU or knowledge, however weird. Manhat tan, for example, has one shop that does nothing but reproduce and re pair medieval ar mor. Also there are six wig and peruke factories. Out on Long Island la a shop that makes swords, hand forged and chas ed, and there arc times when It works night and day. In New Jersey five or six men make a living as fie tc hers, or arrow mak ers. Also the ancient art of falconry still exists hereabouts. The gentlemen of the fancy fly their tiercels at Brewster, N. Y., every now and then, tho birds properly hooded and belled, riding on the gloved wrist. The only real monop oly I know Is that of an old man in the south of England who has a quarry In which he chips flints. He sells them to a tribe of Arabs in the Sahara, who, after four cen turlea of Improvementa In warfare, still won't use anything bui the old flint-lock muskets. They cling to the discarded reasoning that any tiling good enough for their ancestors is good enough for them. Massive-headed, burly John L. Lewis Is frequently a stroller in the lste afternoon avenue parade when in town. Whenever he meets Senator John F. Davis they chatter awhile In Welsh, Just to keep in practice.

A friend on East End avenue has a Japanese cook who, being a Bud dhist, talka gently to food before he cooks It, whether a leg of lamb or a bowl of shrimps. This way he as suaces the spirits of the once frolic some lamb or sedate shrimps. After a dinner a notch under par the other evening, my friend apologized to guests by saying: ''Somehow I dont think Kado was on spfktng terms with the food tonight." Incidentally.

With the onset of puberty and thereafter degenerative changes occur In the undescended gland. If the cryptorchidism Is bilateral the In evitable effect of these degenerative effect Is faUure of development In virility, masculinity and physical character. An ultimate effect In some cases la malignant or cancerous change In the retained gland. It la the present opinion of com petent physiologists that the Import ant factor of sterility In cases of bi lateral sryptorchldlsm is the higher temperature of the gland retained In the abdomen or in the Inguinal canal. The germinal cells or tissue in the gland require a lower tem perature for normal functioning. Of course. If one testis Is normally de scended and free from disease the complete failure or loss of the other makes no difference so far as virility, development, physical character or fertility are concerned.

Communications No "Yellow Cats' In Albanvt To the Editor: With Interest and sympathy I read the libel on your golf club cat. At least I assume It waa a libel for the reasons hereinafter expressed. A few years ago a prominent Albany man was hunting deer in the moun tains of eastern Linn county and kill ed a big buck on high ridge. Though proud of his marksmanship, he was contemplating ruefully the task of carrying the deer to his camp on the road some three or four miles away. when a game warden appeared and demanded to see hla hunting license. The qutck-thlnklng deer slaver ap peared embarrassed and worried and finally expressed a doubt If he had such a document. Thereupon the game ward on said. Well, I'll have to take you In and I'll have to confiscate your deer. Pick It up and we'll go down to the road." The huntsman replied: If you want that deer for evidence, you will have to carry It yourself." There upon the game warden shouldered the heavy burden, went down the high ridge, up the other 4de of the can yon on an equally arduous course and then down and along the winding trail and then, exuding much per- CLEAN FALSE TEETH -GET RID OF STAINS New Easy Way - No Brushing Stcrt-KWn. tmaiini nw fUiroverr. r morrs Mrkt it a in, Urnlih.

Upon arrival there tha hunter suddenly found and produced a per fectly good and up to date hunting license. Now I surmise that tha Med ford cat, emulating the finesse of the Al bany huntsman, was simply enticing and luring that rat to his own dom icile for the purpose of killing him there Instead of dispatching him at the point of Initial encounter and then being faced with the necessity of carrying a rat carcass home. If, however, my diagnosis of the situation Is Incorrect and the pub lished story la true, then I feel I ought to volunteer to try and secure you a good fighting feline from an abundant local supply. A friend of mine lives in a section of this city where, he says, all the cats of Al bany with combative proclivities gather almost nightly to fight any other animals that show up, or, If none appear they, In order to keep In practice, fight among themselves. Vou understand that I personally have never seen these cats fight, bift from what my friend who has dis cussed the subject feelingly many times eays, I am satisfied that any one of a large number of these Al bany cats could, sincle-piwed, lick all the rata In Medford.

Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS yWENTY-EIGHT years ago, the A present site of Maltn, over across the moutalns, end the country to the north and east of It, were sage brush desert. On the sout hand west, coming almost up to the pres ent townslte, were the waters of Tule lata. Today, the whole Malin area Is rich and fertile farm land the sagebrush conquered and the lake drained. It Is now a land of fjat fields and beautiful homeB. WHEN the people of Malin played bost on Saturday and Sunday, celebrating the 28th anniversary of the founding of their town, they had something to show the friends end neighbors who flocked In to help them celebrate. Nowhere on the Pa cific Coast has e greater transforma tion token place in the past three decades. DON'T think It was a picnic back In those early days. It WASN'T. The land was rich the tall and luxuriant sagebrush proved that. But Water was lacking. And the climate, for some reason or other, was less hospitable than now. It took years of unbelievable labor and hardship to prove that profitable crops could be grown. When the moisture was sufflclent-.for a crop, the frost too often laid H low. But they were a determined lot, and they stuck with It. Disappoint ments of one year were the Incentlv, to WORK HARDER the next. FIRST the ditches came, to provide the water that was lacking. Then, when the possibilities of the country were demonstrated, the lake was drained. Its bed, which had been gathering silt for a million years, proved amazingly rlcb. The weather sharps will probably deny It, but the people who have built the Malin district from sage brush desert to the beauty spot It now Is Insist that the climate has changed and softened in these 28 years, with Infinitely less frost now than then. Perhaps the water tass done It. Anyway, at Malin on Saturday snd Sunday, were displayed not only po tatoes snd hay and grain, but almost every conceivable variety of temper ate zone fruit and vegetable. Harsh and forbidding It may once have been, but now it Is a mild and hospitable land, yielding abundantly In return for tha effort expended upon It. THIS thought stands out: This rich and fertile Malin country, along with Its neighboring Merrill and Tule Lake regions, didn't come sbout as a result of passing a law or dividing up SOMEBODY ELSE'S wealth. It was built by hard work. EVERY OTHER worth-while coun try that ever existed on earth was built by hard work. There never was such a thing as something for nothing and there new will be.

Baukhage Copyright 1987, by The North American News ' paper Alliance, Inc. (Continued from Page One) One of the first favorable public comments from abroad on the presi dent's timely remarks came from Parts. Of course, the details of develop ments leading up to the pi'edent's decision to take his stand for "col lective security" as against "Isola tion" have been carefully guarded. Two roasons are offered for believ ing that the last sentence of the Chicago speech. "America actively en gages In the search for peace," may be taken literally. They are: 1. The president would never have gone as far as he did In his speech If he had not received tangible evi dence that the great democratic pow ers were willing to go along. 2. The fact that a concert of the nine-power treaty signatories will be the probable organ of action, and not the league, makes It possible for the United States to take active part without antagonizing anti-league sen timent In this country. Under these conditions, the United States can now step forward to a domlnent leadership in world diplom acy. While Industry big and little raises its voice against the Interference of government, the air transport indus try Is fighting tooth and nail to get under the government's wing. And the only reason It can't is because the bill which would bring It under the supervision of the inter state commerce commission is being fought by other government depart ments. Senator McKellar Is given credit for preventing the passage of the msasure because, It is whispered, neither the commerce nor the postofice depart ments wanted it to go through. They both have partial supervision of air transportation and neither want to give It up. The department of commerce deals out the flying weather, says whether It is safe or not, and passes on the types and safety of planes. The post office, of course, steps in when ques tions pertaining to the carrying of mail are involved. But this leaves such matters as tariffs and freight rates grounded. There is a gentlemen's agreement concerning rates, but nothing more. Fearing some situatoin might arise such as the railroads faced years ago, the air transport Industry would like to att into the sphere of Influence of the I.C.C. To that end, It Is work ing on a counter-lobby to smash the one said to be led by commerce and postofflce departments against Its bill. So far it reports progress. Sectetary Roper Is proud of the j best seller" produced by his depart ment. "Stories of American Indus try" Is a volume composed of 23 radio broadcasts printed by the government printing office. It has already gone Into It fourth printing and Is selling at the rate of 2.j0 copies a week. It is being used In many schools as a textbook. The department of commerce this year has a galaxy of business stars on its radio program. They start off on October 12 with W. Averell Harrl- man. chairman of the board of the Union Pacific railroad. Mr. Harrl man Is followed by a list of names that look as If tney were taken from the directory of directors of industry. Just Right for Oregon Folks!
