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

In order to understand the strange
medical lingo yoit may find this glos

CVD, cardiovascular disease or de

heart and arteries, nerlherl la the

offlclnlly asserted there Is "no sech

are not encountered in this country,
or only rarely. The old timers simply

so at the vaudeville playhouses,

Comment

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,

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.

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 question immediately srlses
what precis effect this slf-obneea-

President's approach to the dnr-

him. There is no space for very
