MTUITIO.aL Only a year or two ago ft represen tative of the old guard In medicine was declaiming that "even the phys ician with a very large practice will see only a few caaea a year In which h will suspect" ft vl ta rn I n deficiency, and that react ionary outburst la atlll reverber ating down thru the w o o d p u 1 p and eo a vender previa and mis leading thoua anda of persons who believe whatever they aee In print. Today the medical Journals are full of reports dealing with' the diagnosis and treatment of vitamin deficiencies In the well-to-do aa well as the poor er classes. A special article by Drs. Weiss and Kllklns, published In the Jour. A. M A. Sept. 4, 1037, states, without apol ogy to the old guard, that ay stem a tic study has revealed that "beriberi with cardiovascular aa well as with i.euro logic manifestations la of regular oc currence in the United States. One hundred and twenty such cases were observed In the Boston City Hospital Thirty-five cases of this group, on which special investigations were conducted, occurred out of 6.808 med ical admissions. The condition oc curs, at least in certain sections of the population, more frequently than congenital heart disease of subacute bacterial endocarditis. Beriberi, how ever, la a far mora common disease than Is Indicated by the frequency of the cardiovascular manifestations, as In the majority of Instances It man ifests Itself In neurologic disturbances only." In order to understand the strange medical lingo yoit may find this glos sary helpful: CVD, cardiovascular disease or de generation, means premature of slow wearing out and weakening of the heart and arteries, nerlherl la the name of a form of polyneuritis or multiple nerve Inflammation with progressive weakening or partial par- alysls, a disc use prevalent In oriental countries and due to Insufficient vi tamin B In the diet. Without any ac tual scientific knowledge or Investi gation of the question the old guard offlclnlly asserted there Is "no sech anlmlle" because the extreme cases ! are not encountered in this country, or only rarely. The old timers simply hadn't the necessary knowledge and skill in diagnosis to detect or even "suspect" the mild cases, Neurnliiglr QO.MclfnT NEW YORK. Nov. 22.

Some of them were addicted to drugs, a few were pregnant, a few had diabetes, a few had some chronic gastrointes tinal trouble for which they dieted. and In some cases food fads or pov erty played a role.

Many theater box office men ot 10 and 15 years ago are atlll at tached to theaters, but mostly as house managers of neighborhood movies. They formed a dressy trigger-thinking guild in the day when the theater was prosperous. Especially so at the vaudeville playhouses, where the audiences came directly to the box office for seats. The oox office fellows had a way of making the customer who wanted two-seat down front In the aisle, take two in the rest and like it. Legitimate the ater box office men have little to do today.

HESS, 2234 K. E. Weldler St., Portland, Or. Comment on the Days News By FRANK 4RNKINM PORTLAND'S lumber Industry is paralyzed, only one small mm whose owner appears to be a man of unusual force, tact- and ability, is operating. Four thousand men are out ot work. The market for Columbia river lumber has been demoralised, ana It seems probable that some 3000 ot these men wilt have to remain out of work all winter. This disturbing message ft as been brought to southern Oregon by O. V Chapman, who In a series of inter esting addressee has supplemented news reports by his own observa ttons and opinions, 4 ' npHE port of Coos Bay is practically A closed. The city of Marshtieia, a year ago ona of the brightest spots In the Oregon business picture, is in the dumps. Salesmen coming irom there report sales badly down, wun no Immediate prospect of improve ment. Unemployment, already bad, is becoming worse. rROM the big automobile centers, a from San Francisco, from widely scattered points all over the country comes the same story of disruptea .Industry and growing unemployment. From the boom of last spring, we have allpped Into a business cession that threatens to become another depression. Among the causes, labor troubles loom large. W HY? Well, to this writer it seems that the Wagner labor act is largely responsible. The Wagner act comers upon the unions powers that are practically limitless, and at the same time places upon them NO RESPON SIBILITY WHATEVER. Power unaccompanied by responsi blllty Is nearly always abused, it is abuse of the tremendous power tnat Is conferred upon the unions (espec lally the hlghcr-upa among tne union leadership) that Is causing most ot the labor troubles that are demoramv Ing Industry. The AFL-CtO split, whose effects have been so disastrous in Portland, arises largely out of a struggle among the leaders over who Is to wieia the great powers and enjoy tne great benefits conferred by the Wagner act. IfOW long will present conditions 1 1 continue? Nothing could be simpler than tne answer to that question. Present la bor conditions will continue just as long as the public (which means tne voters) PERMITS them to continue without protest. If the publlo remains si lent, tnus indicating satisfaction with conai lions as they now exist, the Wagner act wilt remain unchanged. Hut all over the country, voters taac their pens In hand and write u their congressmen, expressing keei dissatisfaction and demanding I change. THERE WILL BE A CHAN UK and quickly. Business now is dominated by trte politicians. And the politicians are governed by what they think a ma jority of the voters wants. THE voting majority Is made up largely of the rank and file ot labor. If the rank and file of laoot Is thoroughly satisfied with the way things are going if what Is going on In Portland and elsewhere Is just what It wants we may aa wen make up our mlnda that present condi tions will be with us for a long time. It la pretty largely up to winning men and women among those wno work for wages to say what Is to oe done for the politicians who maxe our laws are more concerned witn rotes than with anything else. f The Grange Central Point Grant Open house will he observed at the Central Point Grange hall Thanks giving Day and members and friend At invited to make use of Mt fa. cilutes.

As the visitor has told the story to a number of people, both men took a distinctly gloomy view. They rehearsed all the dark circumstances of International politics, with the President's usual emphasis on the future of democracy In so troubled a world. They emerged with the con clusion that some soft of interna tional conflagration would become difficult to avoid by IPflp. By 1941. they agreed that It would be still more inevitable. The problem of the cotjrse of the United States amid such dangers sup posted the question who was to be at the helm to guide the country through? Once more, according to the visitor, the President volunteered that he waa determined to relinquish the task to a younger and fresher man. He Mid that he wss beginning to feel a little tired, and that by 1640 he expected to be anxious to go home, conscious that he had done his stint. He even named the specifications for his suc cessor, which were that the new man should be young certainly under 60 that he should be energetic, snd that he should be as fearless as a politician very well can be. Tha President pointed out that an un usual equipment of courage and ca pacity for work would be necessary to enable any man o handle such situations as his successor would probably have to handle. While both these Incidents can be vouched for as authentic, w must, of course, always be remembered that presidents can change their minds an easily aa other men. and that presidents can also occasionally shad the picture of their Intentions. The dreary, hackneyed old saw. about no man walking out of the White House door for the last tlma without som regret in his heart, ha. a certain veldllty. Nverthelss, the two Incidents seem to Indicate quite clearly that, for the present at least. Mr. Roosevelt Is not planning to succeed himself. The question immediately srlses what precis effect this slf-obneea- tlve stot of mind will have on the President's approach to the dnr- slon phenomena which now confronts him. There is no space for very complete answer, but it appears that It will tend to encourage him to b Himself. That la. It appears thst. If the conciltatorq attitude toward business which he has lately iMiimcd should fail to have the desired re viving effect, then he will return to tne habits and expedient of the more daring days of the New Deal.

If production remains at a standstill, and all the signs of depression are still in evidence by. say. next spring, a reversion to a strong spending pol icy, an other frontal attacks by gov--4 eminent on the economic forces look to l"e lm-t inevitable.
