And He Did It!
TPHEY told Douglas Corrigan it couldn't be done, but Douglas
hopped into his old crate, and DID it I
Very wrong of Douglai. No young man should fly in an
eight year old bug, much less try to get to Europe in it. And
when the Department of Commerce refused to give Douglas a
license, that should have settled it.
But judging by his name Doug was Irish and bad the Celtic
imagination and fighting spirit. He had flown 3,000 miles over
land, he could see no reason why he shouldn't fly the same dis
tance over WATER.
So while all the wise-boys gasped and the officials at Floyd
Bennett field shook their fists Douglas once free in the air
turned the nose of his boat to the East instead of the West,
and the next thing heard of him he had landed safely in Ireland 1

Well, if rules and regulations regarding air transportation
aren't enforced, what is the use of having themt
BUT, arrested or not arrested, license cancelled or not
cancelled, we predict no red tape officialdom is going to stop
Douglas Corrigan.
He has' certainly shown the proper spirit, and has won his
place with that inspiring list of heroes and hardy pioneers, who
have made this country what it is today, by, listening respect
fully to those who said it COULDN'T be done, and then, hop

Making Better Citizens
XXTITHIN the next two weeks, a group of young men of
' Medford will leave for Portland where they will partici
pate in the Beaver Boys' State, to be conducted at the Hill
Militury Academy.
For those not familiar with the Boys' State, this compara
tively new, American Legion-sponsored movement, brings to.
gethor boys of high school and junior college age to seriously
study by ACTUAL PRACTICE the principles of self-govorn
ment. Already, the program has reached a nation-wide scope,
and to the American Legion goes the credit for initiating a
movement of far reaching importance to the young men who
participate and to the nation!
'T'OO often, John Q. Jones, average American, decides the
duties of administering the affairs of government should
be left to professional politicians. For these duties are mani.
fold and mysterious. He hasn't time to study them, or thinks
he hasn't. He may let off steam occasionally if taxes increase
too rapidly, but then that's a typically American prerogative
granted in the Bill of Bights . . . Too frequently he exercises
this right but doesn't ACT. Nol Government responsibilities
belong to the politicians!
THAT is why the Boys' State was organized ... to teach
young Americans WHAT our national, state and local
governments Rre; to teach them HOW these governments op.
crate; to give them a thorough understanding of their rights
as citizens and how to intelligently fulfill their responsibilities
of citizenship! It is the aim of this movement to emphasize
the fact that politics should not be regarded as a RACKET for
the few, but as a SCIENCE OF GOVERNMENT for all
it being believed a knowledge of this distinction will itself open
avenues for vast public usefulness!
'T'lIE Boys' State brings together young men who, with careful
leadership and assistance, organize themselves to conduct
I he affairs of mock government. Through this type of actual,
pracical instruction they are given an insight into the operation
of government that few adults have experienced. Situations
are confronted ; problems of national, state and local govern
ments analyzed.
QO in these Boys' State camps, conducted this year in several
states, a knowledge of better citizenship and an apprecia
tion of the finer fhings that citizenship and patriotism offer,
are instilled in those who some day will guide the destinies of
this nation 1
The movement is sound, practical, far-reaching!
Other organizations have been quick to recognize and appre
ciate the importance of Boys' State . . . Here in Medford,
young men who represent this city will be sponsored by service
clubs and fraternal organizations under the leadership of Med
ford Post 15, American Legion and the Legion Auxiliary. -
Nino young Medford men are already in line to attend the
"camp" at Portland. Legionnaires here expect to send more.
Oregon's Heaver Stnto Boys' camp will accommodate 2S0 and
state members of the American Legion are striving to make it
a two-session affair with a combined attendance approaching
.'.00!
Similar interest is being manifested elsewhere. 400 young
men just completed the Boys' State course in California; 2300
in Illinois! This interest, here and throughout the nation, is
an encouraging sign!
I IKE every large family with periodical rounds of measles
and chickenpox, America is not without her economic and
social ailments; America, too,. has her share of imported and
home-grown crack-pots who spread both openly and under cover
their unsound doctrines in an effort to supplant the lessons of
1(50 years of American self-government, with some 193S stream
line "ism." .
Those things which are alien to American principles of
lomocratic government can best he RECOGNIZED and
EVALUATED by those who KNOW what this nation's princi
ples and policies really ARE; what American democracy
really IS.
In initiating the Boys' State, veterans of the world war
have the OPPORTUNITY AGAIN of truly serving their country
and again contributing to the strengthening and perpetuation
of American institutions. 11. G.
One nose and throat specialist who
waa not born a specialist but achiev
ed his skill In that field thru wide
experience In general practice. In
forms me he has
never been able
to employ dia
thermy for the
e x t r 1 p atlon of
tonsils, perhaps,
u he concedes,
because he fra
never mastered
the technique of
the method. On
the other hand
he has found
diathermy (elec
tro- coagulation,
electro-desiccation, electro-surgery,
andotbermy) a most gratifying ad
vancement In the treatment of sinu
sitis; so muct) preferable to the old
er surgical measures that It haa l.e
come the method of choice In his
practice.
The Inference I draw from this
competent specialist's view la that
radical surgical treatment of sinus
trouble Is not so good as the half-
baked, Inexperienced "specialists" of
Ysnkeeland would have unwary wise
acre customers think. Wimt I mean
la that the majority of so-called pe
c la 1 lata In this country today are
without any solid foundation of gen
eral experience. I call these trick'
specialists "brass specialists" and I
tell the world they're the curse of
Medicine In America.
In urging the advisability of con
servative treatment I do not mean
to my that surgery Is never neces
sary or advisnble, nor that dlather.
my Is always preferable to more rad
ical surgical operation. My purpose
la merely to warn tiie public against
the pretensions made and the devices
practiced by the charlatans. Most of
these shrewd merchants who hold
themselves out to the public as "spe
cialists" would starve If they had to
depend on tlie confidence and respect
of the reputable physicians In the
community to call them Into confu
tation In difficult cases or to refer
patients to them for their advice.
In long standing cases la sinusitis
the thyroid gland function seems to
become exhausted. This calls for ei
ther the led In ration or, If the pa
tient's temperature Is below tiie nor
mal 08 between 4 and 6 p. m. dally,
small dally doses of thyroid extract
the thyroid extract should be dls- i
continued If or when the body weight
shows a loss or the pulse rate, which
has been slow, is more than 60 a
minute wren the patient la at rest
Of course thyroid extract can be
safely tused In this way only under
the observation of the physician.
The general hygiene, diet, clothing,
ventilation, sunshine, air-conditioning,

chronic respiratory diseases such as
ct ironic bronchitis, and we'll consider
these factors In a separate chapter on
bronchitis.
-Regular or systematic use of sprays,
douches. Irrigations or suction is as
likely to harm as It la to help. Such
treatment should be restricted to oc
casions or perlcds when tlie phy
sician specifically prescribes It.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Dangerous Drug
Kindly tel me about benzldrtne
sulphate tablets. How will they effect
a pregnant woman. Any Information
about these tablets will be appreciat
ed. (Mrs. E. L. C.)
Answer Benzldrlne la for too pow
erfud a drug for any layman to mon
key with. It would be as dangerous
to use It without your physician's
advice as it Is to use morphine or
strychnine.
Food In the Can
Friend horrified at our unorthodox
Habit of leaving certain canned foods
In the can In the refrigerator for
hours or days before we consume
them. She Insists that health author
ities warn against that as a danger
ous practice. (E. E. P. and Family)
Answer Nonsense. If the can is
a fit container before It la opened
It Is Just as fit flfter It Is opened.
Your friend probably harbors imag
inations about "ptomaine" poisoning
a few backwoods "healUi authori
ties" still fester such phobias.
Monarch tritsm
Please tell me if a man who haa
had one testicle removed can have
children? (D. M.)
Answer The loss of one testicle
or ovary has no effect on virility or
femlnancy, potency or fertility, pro
vided the remaining organ Is intact.
Thaat'a why nature provides the
spare.

He serviced his own plane, explain
ing that he had only modest funds
and preferred to save his money.
The timepiece he used in taking
celestial readings was nothing but a
moderately priced wrist watcn.
Corrigan would have started ear
lier on what waa supposed to have
been a flight back to California to
the west coast, but Kenneth Behr,
airport manager, refused to let him
take off before daylight. Corrigan
had told Behr he would like to leavo
In his plane, heavily laden wltti gas
oline, at 1 a. m. (E. D. T.)
Behr refused him permission to use
the field, fearing that Corrigan might
smash up his plane on a take off in
the darkness.
"I merely want to fly by the light
of the moon," remarked Corrigan.
Behr rt.ee Hod the little ship, dis
covered that It contained 330 gallons
of gasoline and 10 gallons of oil, and
shook his head.
Corrigan waited, on Behr's Insist
ence, until 4:17 a. m. then, with
flares shedding light on the runway
and floodlights bathing the airport,
he races across the field. Fire equip
ment and a police emergency car
stood by.
Corrigan had some difficulty In
getting away. He covered 3,000 feet of
the longest runway at Floyd Bennett
4.200 feet before the little plane
could lift off.
Those who watched bim were as
tonished when be banked slowly and

That was the first Intimation that
the irishman might be attempting a
solo conquest of the Atlantic
Even then, those acquainted with
blm surmised that ha must have al
tered course when he attained alti
tude and struck westward for the
Pacific seaboard. They pointed out
that he Had been refused permission
by the government last year to fly
to Ireland.
He flew without benefit of a par.
achute, for use in an emergency.
His plane, long out of production,
la powered wltn a I7fl-h. p. motor,
which la Just 3,02ft leas horsepower
than Howard Hughes had tn circling
the world last week In a transport

Corrigan had his own method of
taking care of the antiquated crate
he flew. When he wanted to grease
the "push rods" which operate the
Calves of hla motor, he merely un
locked the metal covers and shoved
in a handful of grease.
Within an hour after his arrival
stories about him began cropping up.
Last Monday, Invited to broadcast on
a network, he refused to take $100
for his services. Fifty, U:en? No, he
said. Finally he was asked what he
did want.
"Well," I spent 14 on taxi fare get

THIS Isn't uttered In any spirit of
narrow partisanship.
President Roosevelt Is gunning
openly for a congress that will do
whatever he tells It to do. If he
gets such a congress, there Is no
telling what wild scheme will be
sprung on ua as soon as the new
congress assembles.
In the past five years, we've had
fed to us about all we can hope to
digest In the next ten years. This
writer fears that if the process of
forced feeding Is resumed as soon
as the next congress assembles, the
United States of America will get a
bad case of indigestion.
What haa happened in Europe
when nations get a bad case of Indi
gestion la none too reassuring.
WITH an election In the offing,
we're having a breathing spell
Business Is beginning to crawl out
of the cyclone cellar and look around
timidly, to be sure, and ready to
dive back Into Its hole, but at least
wilting to take a look. The stock
market is rising, and a more hopeful
spirit la abroad.
But we had a similar breathing
spell in 1936, and no one should
forget that when a practically 100
per cent rubberstamp congress as
sembled In January of 1937, a se
quence of startling experiments was
sprung on us that scared business
out of Its wits and sent prosperity
tumbling and unemployment totals

THE Republlrsns can't hope to
make much of a gain In the
November elections. But If they
make ANY GAIN AT ALL It will be
a sobering influence. This sobering
Influence will tend to EXTEND the
breathing spell. We NEED the ex
tension.
So. here In Oregon, let's try i
little experiment of our own. Let's
send some Republicans back to
Washington, and elect a Republican
governor for good measure.
It can't do any harm, and It may
do a TREMENDOUS amount of good.

Altogether, considering that he was

If the president himself Is not Fe
lix Frankfurter's best advocate.
Frankfurter's case will be pleaded at
the White House by many of the pres
ident's closest advisers. Besides the
arguments above, they will present
certain more specific ones. For ex
ample, as the trusted friend of all
but . the most extreme conservatives
on the high bench, he could cure the
disagreeable situation centering
around Justice Hugo L. Black. He
could bring unity to the court's liber
al wing. nnd. with hla learning, lend
an added weight to liberal consltu
tlonal Interpretation.
True. Frankfurter Is a Jew, but the
president Is not the sort of man to
give In to the Ignorant brutality of
ant brutality of antl-aemlttsm. Truo.
also, his appointment would make a
propagandist s tleld day for the more
Inscnipuloiis anti-new dealers.
But. leaving on one side the fact
that Franturter Is a Brandels mnn
and not a radical at all. It must be
remembered that thua far the propa
gandists have failed to make a d.nt
In him. According to the Inquiring
Dr. Gallup, he was the American
bar's first choice for the place fteid
by Justice Black, and at that time
he was also Indorsed by such form;rs
01 conservative thoucht as Mlas Dor
othy Thompson. Furthermore, his
disapproval of the method of the
court bill earned him conservative
friends.
The fact Is that. If Franfurtcr's
