A Serious Blunder
YES, it'i really vary amusing.
Asked to comment on the result in Iowa, Mr. Harry Hop
kina apparently with a straight face pontificates aa follows:
"The result clearly sIiowb W.P.A. is NOT playing politics."
Following which the resourceful Mr. Farley comes out as
enthusiastically for Senator Gillette as he came out for Attorney
Hess, following Governor Martin's defeat; and ia followed up
by the No. 3 man in the Roosevelt administration, Henry Wal
lace, Secretary of Agriculture, who assures the successful
Senator, (the White House marked for slaughter), that the same
White House will be 100 behind him, in the fall eleotion.
NOW of course partisan politics, have always been, at least
60 hooey and regardless of the particular label, are
today.
Rut it does appear to this column that the hocus pocus and
hypocrisy have about reached the saturation point, since Presi
dent Roosevelt decided it would be good policy to meddle in
the Democratic primaries.
TAKE Mr. Hopkins' statement for example, the relief ad
ministrator who publicly stated that if he were voting in
Iowa he would vote for Congressman Wearin,
The candidate he supported and tried to nominate, was over
whelmingly defeated, so this proves,
There is no politics in the relief administration j
John D. M. Hamilton might as well have stated at the close
of' the '36 Landon campaign that there was no politics in the
G.O.P. national committee, for John D. M. was equally unsuc
cessful. We wonder what Mr. Hopkins would have said if his candi
date had won I
AND now, less than 48 hours after the Roosevelt administra
tion had given its hearty endorsement to Congressman
Wearin through "Jimmy" Roosevelt, it transfers that endorse
ment to his successful opponent, through Messrs. Farley and
Wallace.
Certainly no one can defeat this sort of strategy, it's
"heads we win, tails you lose," as far as suffering any reversal
is concerned.
We wonder how much more nonsense and how many more
rebuffs it is going to take to convince the President that when
he was persuaded to'involve his administration in not only the
internal political affairs of a state, but the internal affairs of his
own party WITHIN A STATE, he committed a serious tactical
blunder I
War Can V Be Reformed
OF course this condemnation of the bombing of helpless
oiviliana, both in Spain and China is perfectly natural and
entirely proper. Secretary of State Hull is to be commended
for taking such action officially on the part of the United States.
There is only one word for bombings like these, that is
"MURDER", wanton and brutal murder, contrary to all
the laws of civilized warfare, and, ordinary human decency.
BUT there is no point in kidding ourselves. These official
words of condemnatfon, from world powers enjoying the
delights of peace, will do no REAL good, will have no more
effect on- the methods of waging war, than whistling against a
Kansas cyclone.
For war is no longer a department of statecraft or a contest
between professional warriors,
international conflict to the death, a process of mutual annihi
lation, in which by its very nature, all citizens of the warring
nation whether they wish to be or not ARE engaged.
In other words, from the military standpoint, combatants are
not confined to thoso who carry
make guns; and those who make clothes, or ammunition, or
produce food, or participate in any way in the national economy,
and the sustaining of the national morale. And this includes
practically everyone.
SO while nations like Japan, and the warring factions in
Spain, will continue to deny officially they DO bomb de
fenseless civilians (they only attack points of military import
ance, and it's just too bad for the defenseless men, women and
children who happen to be there I) such tactics will undoubtedly
continue. They will continue just so long as wars continue,
and such methods pay from the standpoint of destroying the
enemy's morals.
IN other words such an expression as "civilized warfare", is
a contradiction in terms. In this complex industrialized
world there "ain't no sich animule."
And the effort to set up a code of rules and regulations for
war, with any expectation they will he observed, after war
is once declared, is a perfectly futile effort.
In fact, as we ace it, far better to let these gestures of moral
indignation, go by the board, and concentrate, not on trying to
uplift war, trying to humanize, something that CAN'T be
humanized, but on destroying thoso social and economic mal
adjustments which CAUSE war.
Or to express it in another way: fight war, today, tomorrow
and all the time. Fight it for what it IS, an entirely wanton
and evil thing not for what it ISN'T, a necessary evil, that
must be condoned, and can be made more acceptable if we only
draw up resolutions and pass laws concerning it 1
Somewhat Exaggerated
LOCAL supporter of Attorney Hess, maintains that gentle-
man is confident he will carry Multnomah county, by a
large majority, as long as he (Hossl is opposed by the Oregonian.
"The worst thing that could happen to Hess" the local
supporter declares, "would be for the Oregniiian to come out
for him. In such an event he would probably lose every pre
cinct in the Portland trading area."
This statement strikes us, ss Mark Twain's obituary struck
him as considerably exaggerated.
Undoubtedly the support of the Orecenian, in the coming
campaign would do Mr. Iloss no good, but neither, as we see it,
would it do him any particular harm.
The tradition tbnt the Orogonian's opposition in this state,
is a definite political asset, may have been true in the past.

sense, today.

GANGLION OB
Any swelling or lump under the
skin may be called ganglion, even a
kernel" or enlarged lymph node, but
the common
mesnlng of gang
llon Is weeping
sinew, a swell
ing or sac, pouch
or cyst of a ten
don sheath filled
with thick fluid.
To add to con
fusion, the name
ganglion Is the
correct name for
aggregations of
nerve cells of the
sympathetic ner
vous system.
Familiar situation of ganglion is
the back or the front of the wrist.
I liad one for twelve years, caused,
I believe, by strain or sprain, not,
as some readers might think, from
constant pounding on the capital
I" key of my typewriter, but from
an unprovoked acsault upon me by
a crank In a motor boat I was in
nocently playing with. Most people
with ganglion have no Idea what
may have caused It; in fact, the
cause of ganglion Is something doc
tors can only surmise. Perhaps a rent
in a tendon sheath, or a degenera
tion of the tissue of Joint lining
(synovia) following some injury or
Inflammation. Ganglion occurs most
frequently among the people who use
fingers and wrists a great deal, such
as typists, washerwomen, pianists.
violinists, harpist, mandolinlsts and
certain factory workers.
Removal of the sao and contents
by dissection, under local anesthesia.
Is the radical cure. This is the logi
cal treatment in any case where
ganglion Interferes with occupation
or career.
A simple, homely old cure, so I
have been Informed, consisted of
tensing the wrist and resting the
arm on a padded chair arm, then
striking the lump a sharp blow with
the back of a book. I recommended
the book entitled "Personal Health"
by Wm. Brady, M.D.. for this pur
pose when it was In print. Now I
can only suggest the use of a book

deal In this treatment I never could
decide I pondered the question for
six of the years I had ganglion and

Comment
on the
Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
HESE figures, taken from the
final report of the recent census
of unemployment, ant Interesting:
Of all workers between the ages of
15 and 34, 19.0 per cent were unem
ployed when the census was taken
last November.
Of all workers between the ages of
48 and 64, only 14.6 per cent were
unemployed when the census was
taken. v
PTHAT Ls to say, It Is easier for an
old man to KEEP a Job than for
a young man to GET a job.
fHIS paragraph from the final re-
port of the unemployment cen
sus ls startling, to ssy the least:
"The total of the registered un
employment (7,846,016) Is equiv
alent to the population of the
following atstea: Nevada, Wy
oming. Delaware, Vermont, New
Mexico. Arizona, Idaho, New
Hampshire, Utah, Montana,
Rhode Island, North Dakota,
South Dakota. Maine and Ore-
gon."
11 HY all this unemployment?
The politicians have aa many
answers as there sre politicians, and
each answer ls based upon that par
ticular politician's need for votes;
but this ls the ECONOMISTS answer:
We have unemployment because the
fair and equal exchange of goods and
services among all classes of the pop
ulation has been INTERFERED WITH
THAT is to say, if EVERYBODY
could exchange what he produces
for what everybody else produces, on
a FAIR AND EQUAL BASIS, there
could be no such thing as over-production
or unemployment, because
the capacity of human beings to con
sume equals the capacity of numf.n
beings to produce.
NOTHER question arises here:
What has Interfered with the
fslr snd equal exchange of goods and
services among all classes of the
population?
There are many answers. Here are
some of them: Fear, greed. Intoler
ance, laziness.
When these Interferences with free
and equal exchange of goods and ser
vices are removed, there will be no
longer unemployment or over-production.
SAFETY CAMPAIGN
CUTS
E
SALEM, June 8. yp) Most of the
automobile Insurance companies In
Oregon have reduced rates from five
to IS percent on property damage
and public liability Insurance because
the state has reduced automobile
accidents since last year. Secretary
of State Earl Snell ssld todsy.
Some companies have reduced their
premiums, while others have offered
15 percent rebates to policy holders
who have no claims filed against
them during a year.
During the first three months this
year. Oregon had a 40 percent auto
fatality reduction over the same pe
riod last year, the state having the
rourtn beat record In the nation.
There also were 700 fewer accidents
the first four months this year, com
psred with the similar period in 1837.
"This action of the Insurance com
panies comes ss tangible evidence
that Oregon's safety campaign ls mak
ing headway." Snell ssld.

congress and tn the executive de
partments, you will hardly find an
informed and resltatlo man ready to
deny that government ownership is
on the wsy.
Under the circumstances, it seems
too bad that neither the president,
nor Chairman Jesse H. Jones of the
RFC, nor the chairman of the sen
ate interstate commerce committee.
Senator Wheeler, nor any of the
business men involved has troubled
to tell the country of the true state
of affairs. The people may want gov
ernment ownership, but they should
at least have the privilege of choice.
In the farm problem, there ls no
choice. Greater powers for the ad
ministration have been granted, and
must be used. Farm prices have al
ready1 dropped precipitately, and are
likely to drop still further under the
pressure of huge crops. Under the
new farm bill, the administration is
directed to use the funds of the
commodity credit corporation to peg
the prices of the major crops like
wheat, cotton and corn.
For example, it's expected thst
the wheat price will be pegged by
loans at 60 cents a bushel, with the
pot sweetened for co-operating farm
ers by parity payments of 8 to 10
cents. Under the circumstances. It's
entirely possible that the crop carry
overs will end In the hands of the
commodity credit corporation. There
fore, to avoid the dreadful troubles
of the Hoover farm board. It will be
necessary for the agriculture depart
ment to enforce the strictest pro
duction control next year.
Thus, the depression ls hot only
likely to make the government the
owner of great granaries and ware
houses full of farm produce. It la
also likely to set up the sgriculture
department as a benevolent despot
of the fields.
As for the relief problem, the sen
ate quietly killed the Woodrum
amendment to the spending bill in
the hectic hours before passage. Un
less the house Insists on the re
insertion Of t.Vim n mt nrl merit ffe
president may now spend the 81,426,-
wu.vuu rvuei appropriation as ISSt
as he chooses. The temptation will
be all but irresistible to shower all
the money out before election. There
ls no need to make the money last
12 months. The conereas can alwavs
be asked for more.
This Is perhaps the greatest, of the
three DrosnerttVA incmoui in th
president's powers. Certainly it ls the
iiiuni. important, irom a political
StandDOint. The Artvmt. rt onvam-
ment ownership of railroads will not

Sorry I'm not in Portland
to see the parade,
See all the wonderful floral
floats they've made I
They wanted me to take the
floral queen job,
But I'm just too modest to
faoe the mob.
Of course, I'll admit, they
might have done worse,
Than doll me up for King
Chevy the First.
It'i better as is, I'm forced
to confess,
As a king of the festival, Fd
sure be a mess 1
