A few days ago, the Japanese foreign office, proclaimed it was fighting communism, and asked for the moral support of capitalistic nations, opposing communism. Then Tokio received official notice that organized labor in this country had voted a boycott against Japanese-made goods, as a rebuke to militant imperialism, in the Far East, and the waging of an undeclared war of Whereupon the Japanese clarion cry for aid, this time against its capitalistic competi tors, particularly England and the United States, who are using the war and labor as a smoke screen, behind which they are determined to destroy Japan's markets, and grab aforesaid markets for THEMSELVES ! Both claims happen to be other couldn't be, for no country could be fighting communism one day, and capitalism the next, such a contention just doesn't make sense. Yet this is the sober assertion of Japanese diplomacy, if the press dispatches are correct. WE don't claim Japan is unique in taking such a position, or, diplomatically speaking, any worse than occidental countries have been in the past, when endeavoring to justify a war in which they became engaged. We are commenting upon credit Japan, as to discredit diplomacy, as it exists today, or three hundred years. There is NO TRUTH IN never will be.

(AP The supreme court Justices assemoled today to decide whether to review the conviction of Haywood Patter son, one of the Negroes Involved in the famous Scottsboro, Ala., casea. Some observers 'expressed the be lief this litigation might provide a basis for challenging any participa tion by Justice Black, who at one time was a member of the Ku Kiux Klan. Twenty-eight petitions, Including Patterson's, were placed before the Justices at their weekly conference. Whether the appeals will be , heard in open court will be announced Monday. Patterson was sentence to serve 7ft years In prison after his convic tion of attacking a white woman on a moving freight train near Scottsboro in March, 1931. The supreme court has saved mm twice from the death penalty by ordering new trials. At the third trial, he escaped a death sentence but drew a 76-year prison term. BILL URGED FOR WASHINGTON, Oct. 33.

A THOUSAND NITS The other day I offered to wager 35 to 1 In each of a thousand casca that a thousand persons subject to habitual or chronic constipation and addicted to some special diet, en ema, or aperient medicine, will no longer require such "aid" to bowel action after three months of absolute depriva tion of access to auch "aids. No one haa of fered to accept the wager. I thought It would be- fairly safe to make auch a wager or to offer to do so. Not that I yearn to see a lot of wretched mortals slowly perishing with autointoxication or any, auch frightful, If wholly Imaginary, fate. But I know the great wiseacre publis In Yankeeland and I am confident I could get sufficient capital to un derwrite the project If a few adven turers should volunteer to serve aa the guinea-pigs for the experiment. The conditions would not be so frightful aa the thought of a thou sand nuts on a desert Island might suggest. Remember, they are to have everything they could have In their ordinary environment except their favorlto physic. Prom subjective and objective experience 1 know that even the average badly educated layman can stand the strain of five days of worry and anxiety that la the length of time usually required for read justment of the normal rhythm after Interference has ceased and we'd cancel the bets on the few who would go quite batty under the strain. We must remember that the thousand guinea-pigs would necessarily be a bit weak In the head in order to qualify for the trip to the island, for after all a person of sound mind can hardly permit himself to become addicted to physic. No getting around the fact that the lower you go In the scale of Intelligence the more fixed the notion that the bowels need constant watching and dally "regu lation" Booklet No. 36 of the Llttls Les sons series, "The Constipation Hab it," which sets you bick ten cent coin and a stamped envelope bear ing your address suggests several substitutes for physic, things which favor nature! or normal functioning of the bowel and help to support the Comment on the Days News By FRANK JENKINS THE rldera mentioned yesterday In thla saga of the great open spaces are from Dill Klttredge'a MO ranch at Adel. Adel ta 80-odd miles by road from thla water hole, and these boya have been combing the sage for atraya clear up to the base of the Steens, a good 40 mllea on from here. They've been out from the home ranch for 17 days, and expect to be out at least a week more. During these 17 days, they've been living mostly out of their packs. THE MC la operated along with the 1 big Klttrcdge ranch at Klamath Marsh, and cattle are moved regular, ly back and forth between the two. The Klamath Marsh la 80 to 100 mllea from Adel. It doesn't require higher mathe matlea to figure out that the outer edR.a of the Klttredge range arc a long 150 mllea or more apart.

He Is blonde, and speaks with , distinct Scandinavian accent. Cow waddles of Scandinavian extraction are reasonably rare. He la promptly dubbed "Swede" by the members of thla expedition whose inside knowledge of the cow business haa been gleaned chiefly from Wild West tales and the movies, and who can't stretch their Imsgtna ttons far enough to include a rider of the purple sage named Just plain John.

Perhaps the most Important thing of the kind la an optimal or more than suffici ent dally Intake of vitamins to sup plement the ordinary diet. This Is rather beneficial for anyone who sub sists on the ordinary diet of more or lees refined foods; It la particularly helpful f or those who are subject to constipation or digestive weakness. So I'd try to hedge on my bet by advis ing the thousand guinea-pigs to start taking generous rations of vitamins B, O and D a few weeks before leav ing for the island and to continue taking plenty of B. D and O while doing their stretch. This. I think, would give them the Intestinal vigor they need to overcome their weakness. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Canning. You Imply that factory canned to mato la superior to home canned to mato or tomato Juice. (P. M- A.) Answer Only In vitamin O. Com mercial canning (vacuum process) preserves more of the vitamin C of fresh fruit or vegetable or Juice than does home canning, because oxida tion destroys vitamin C. This la im portant only because tomato Juice Is a source of vitamin C In Infant feed ing, or In northern regions where canned tomato or tomato Juloe may be the most economical available source of vitamin C for Infants, chil dren and adults In the winter. Vita min C la necessary to prevent scurvy. Harking Cough. What are the signs of tuberculosis? I have a dry cough and shooting pains. (M. L.) Answer There are no signs you can depend on. The only way to find out what alls you Is to be examined. If necessary repeatedly, by a physi cian. That Is the best way to man age cough even If you have no sus picion of tuberculosis. Corn. One big corn on ball of foot. Would your famous cough cure be good ? (Mrs. F. A. R.) Answer No harm to try it. Paint corn, callus or wsrt once dally with solution of 30 grains of salicylic acid In one-half ounce of flexible collo dion. (Copyright, 1937, John P. Dille Co.) Ed.

Besides, It's all I know, and I've got to eat." Harold hasn't been at It quite so long, but has never known anything else.

"When you guya ride a hundred mllea or so, like you been doing the past 17 days," he demanded, "how many cowa do you bring back?" John shrugged again. "Oh, maybe a couple dozen." he answered. "May be ten. Maybe only one. It all de pends on how many we find." Disgust showed on Sharkey's face. "Huh," he snorted, "no wonder the price of beefsteak's so high." QUERIED as to how they liked their boss, John and Harold answered In unison: "Bill Kit's a awell guy." And they meant It. Their voices told that. It'a really refreshing In these troubled modern times to hear a couple of fellows praise their boss. Maybe, this cattle business Is a pretty good business, after all.

The Self-Made Man He claims to be a "self-made" man; His wealth amounts to millions; But still he's working on a plan To boost the sum to billions. He started with & dollar bill And being shrewd and thrifty, He made It work for him until It grew to something nifty. - While speculating here and there, He found that In his dealings He'd have no sympathy to spare For someone's trampled feelings. A "self-made" man, to reach the top Can waste no time on others: He cannot well afford to stop To aid his struggling brothers. But even he. a "self-made" man, Must face some disappointment; We note as we his status scan, A spider In his ointment. In spite of all his boundless wealth And skill, there Is no question, That rich food undermines his health And gives him Indigestion. Now that he's climbed to such a height Above his fellow-creatures. We venture to suggest he might Reshape his age-worn features; And build himself a stomach which Will work with perfect rhythm: And brain unhampered by an Itch For wealth he can't take with him. I do not envy men,, "self-made," I think their antics funny; I really would not wish to trade My stomach off for money. I'd hate to swap my appetite For wealth which might destroy It; For I can eat, when luck breaks right. Fine pastry and enjoy It. J. C. Reynolds, Ruch, Ore. Memorial.
