Mr. White waa confronted with a chance to go to Oxford, or play footbnll at 16.000 per season, For a long time, he was torn be tween the two problems. A mighty thirst for knowledge engulfed him.

J SVr Will There be War? ONE can. only guess concerning the situation in the Far East, for it is impossible to determine the facts. This "incident" on the Manehoukuo border, for example, is described in one way by the official communique from Mos cow, and in an entirely different way by Japan. More than that, for over war with Japan in one way, according to its own story, retreat for over 12 months, bleeding her white, anything approaching a Japanese con rpiest being impossible. Japan, on the other hand, has steadily maintained, she hns won victory after victory, that at the present time, Hankow is about to fall, and' with the capital, the conquest of north Which side has been telling Russian version correct, or the tance can tell, one can only IF THE Japanese version is correct, that Soviet Russia, after fortifying the border, attacked Japanese troops, both by land and air, then this incident means war between Russia and Japan, a war that, inevitably will spread over Europe. For unless Russia decided Japan is nearing victory over China and the time to strike is before her conquest is com plete, Stalin would hardly have taken such an offensive. On the other hnnd, if the Japan took the initiative, then will have no more serious consequences than a score of like incidents in the same region, merely a show of force, a start anything, in this section, China, Japan hns half a million urepared to fight. For the sake of world peace it is to be helped the latter version is correct. How About FOR several days there has been a grapevine rumor in Med ford, that even the inadequate railroad service now enjoyed, is to be abandoned, that "when winter comes" there will He no pnssengcr transportation in or out, except by motor bus. According to our information from Southern Pacific sources, this report is entirol.v unfounded, the company has no inten tion of abandoning its mil pnssenger service via the Rogue Valley route. Well, we hope the latter version is correct. But the report brings into sharp relief, a distressing but undeniable fact, namely, That the railroad problem, not only here in southern Oregon, but throughout the country, is extremely serious, and becom ing more serious every day. SOONER or later, the people of this country will have to docide whether they want the railroads taken over by the government or remain in private hands, and therefore the more they study the perplexing problem, the more they learn about it, the better for all concerned. And the present is a good time to start. Meanwhile this much is certain: If the people DON'T want their government to take oven and operate the railroads, then they will have to give the rail roads sufficient support to allow them to operate at a profit, SOMF. profit. For no industry whether it has to do with trans portation, timber-cutting, dure for any length of time when it operates at a loss. There is a limit, and as far as the railroads are concerned that limit Iibh about been reached. On the other hand, if a cheaper and more satisfactory form of transportation has been developed than the railroads supply, thon neither the government nor the people can be exrecteel to subsidize, either directly or throuKh paying excessive rates, what is in reality an outmoded and antiquated system. Our railroads, willy nilly, under such circumstances will have to bow to the inevitable and go D UT before anyone jumps to the Intter conclusion, they should delve into the facts. By so doing they will find, we believe, that tliero is no way to accurately determine what is the cheapest form of transportation, for they are not operated on the same basis. The railroads, for example, are strictly regulated as a nat ural monopoly, when no business is less a monopoly, has to meol stiffer competition in the air and on water and land, through airplanes, ships and motor vehicles of various sorts. In fact in a certain sense every person who owns an automo bile competes with the railroad, constantly in passenger traffic, frequently in freight. OMVIOUSLiY, as long as railroads are privately owned, they should not be subject to strict public regulation, on the assumption they have no competition, when the competition is of the keenest and most destructive sort. Nor should the railroads be forced to buy their own rights-of-way, maintain them, pay huge taxes upon them, and then be compelled to compete with a rival transportation system, where the rights-of-way, the maintenance and the taxes are FA ID BY THE PEOPLE. Yet that is the situation that exists today in the competition between rail and motor bin service, the former has to pay it own way, the latter is subsidized to the tune of literally billions of dollars, both by the government and the various states, K S HAS bci-n frcntiently stated, this column for tlif rsilronds. but it is convinood, and sometime. that it is decidedly to thf 1'1'HUC INTK.HEST to give the railroads, all the railroads. a New Peal and a square deal, a ehuiiee to work out their own destiny on a just and equitable basis. Then if they ean't provide the service the people WANT and are willing to pay for (thus operating st a profit), let them meet the fate that any non-profitable industry under the profit system must meet EXTINCTION.

SINBIBN When sunburn It mare than men reddening, smarting and Itching, which Is relieved by the frequent ap plication of calamine lotion, the In lamination may be alleviated by wrapping the In flamed surface In toft tow t la wet with a so lutlon of 1ft grains of alum inum acetate to the pint of wat er, and this Is more effective If the patient Is kept warm while the wet packs are on. If any blisters rise, they should bo openrd will sterile (froshly boiled) c lessors or with sterile ( flamed 1 needle, the serum or fluid gently preiwod out with soft sterile (fresh ly washed andlroned) muslin or lin en pads. And the spot brushed over with a per cent solution of gentian violet In water (approximately 10 grains In the ounce.) j The drawback about the use of ; this gentian violet solution Is of course that It stains the skin. A rtilp surgeon on a South American cruiser I found that painting the entire burn- I ed area gave the greatest relief, when : the victim waa willing to put up with the stain for a week or more. Sunburn of the second decree (blisters) Is a serious aa any other burn and should have U'.e care of a physician. If any salve Is applied as a remedy, after blistering. It should be a sterile one (uncontamfnated by exposure to alt; or dust or contact with humnn fingers). If medical care la not available, these salves or oint ments, preferably applied by squeez ing sufficient ointment from a col lapslhle tube to cover the blistered or raw surface, are useful: Boric Ointment (10 boric acid Intment, official In the U. 8. P. and the BP.). Old D.ic Ointment (as supplied In tubes to physicians under the name of "lyptollne," by a National physi cians supply house) and tanlpaste wfilch contains tannic acid and chlorbutanol, a local anesthetic, sup plied to physicians and druggists by another large pharmaceutical house. A tube of one of these salves kept in the family medicine cupboard will be found handy for the first aid treatment of burns, scalds, stings and meny minor wounds. Youth has to learn by experience that It Is wise to discontinue the Man About Manhattan By OtOltOE rUCKEB OIJ3 LYME, Conn. It seems strange that of the 38 members of the Art association here only five should be New Englnnders. The othera come from every sec tion of the coun try, and one evon halls from Russia. This Is Ivan O. Ollnsky, noted for his fine portrait. His daughter Tos ca Is here, too, but she wss born In Florence, Itely. Tosca likes to paint flowers. Among the es tablished paint ers here Is the fsmlllsr name of Ogden M. Plelssner. Last year I ran Into sn exhibition of his In New York and wrote a column about It I was very much Interested In his work because the whole exhibition. some 30 watercolors, was devoted to fresh-water flhlng. Plelssner Is a hard worker who combines business with pleasure that Is. he paints whatever he likes to do. For Instance, right now he Is In Wyoming serving as a guide to pack trains, and on the walls of the association gallery Is one of Pleissner's csnvases. showing a pack train picking Its wsy through the treacherous, tsngled wilds of the western hill country. Another name you are certain to recognize is William S. Robinson, who likes to paint boats. As a boy he used to hang around the wharves of Gloucester, skinning mackerel, and it was there the fascination of the sea and of boats took such hold on hli Imagination that forever after he has been painting them. When I visited the gallery I was struck by the luxurious, tropical vegetnln In certain oils and water colors by Will Howe rYota. They were of natives In tmple baekgroinds. nnd the banana trees seemed so resl you wanted to reach up snd pluck off a leaf. "Where is that supposed to be. Cuba?" I asked Edwin Norwood, who was showing me around. "Why don't you ask Mr. Foots him self?' he grinned, "here he la now." I turned to find a rather slight gen tleman In Immaculate linen with a pair of the moat amused btue eyes 1 ever asw He was very friendly and talked enthusiastically of his winters tn Jamaica, land of pineapple and sucarcane plantations, where the paintings were done. Mr. Foote has spent six consecutive winters In Ja maica, but will try new scenes this winter. He plans to go to Old Mexico probsblv In December, and remain until spring.

That Is a first degree burn. and a first degree sunburn Is un comfortable enough for any one to endure. To carry the exposure be yond that point Is to court suffer ing from a second degree burn. So far as tanning Is concerned, the most satisfactory bronzing Is obtained by moderately Increasing doses of ultra violet, never persisting longer than the stage of erythema or reddening. QI KSTIONK ir ANMYEIU Vitamin B and Deafness Please give full particulars regard ing vitamin B for help in deafness (Mrs. E. E.) Answer All I now Is that Uiere hava been a number of reports of marked improvement in hearing when the deaf persons have taken a large dally ration of vitamin B to supple ment the diet preferably vitamin B complex (not synthetic or pure vita min B), as In three or four ounces of plain wheat, or one or two ounces of wheat germ, or six or eight tablets of vitamin B complex dally. I hope readers who try tills will report what results they experience. Exercise for Sciatica For 3ft years I had rheumatism In knees and often attacks of lumbago and sciatica. Two years ago I began doing the following exercise timid ly and cautiously at first, gradually more enthusiastically, and now I have no more trouble at all. Exercise. Kick backward with heel as high above hip as possible straight oack and up first, then out and up on either side, then In under the other leg and up. (J. H. H.) Answer Thank you. Perhaps your suggestion wilt encourage others to try some such exercise and tell us their experience.

Communications Real and Bogus Townenfl1tes To the Editor; Hie Townsend article that you car ried on the last page of your Aug. 1st Issue will bear a little light thrown on It as it might be mislead lng to those who are not in the "know." ' The parent Townsend organization under Dr. Townsend tiaa no depart menta but the local clubs and na- t tonal headquarters. There are no conventions held In any district or state, The organization you mention ts made up of a group of disgruntled, selfseeklng individuals suffering with inferiority complexes who meet to gether and elect each other to office so that they can create an Impree ion on the other fellow. Most of tiiem think they know more about the Townsend plan of work than Dr. Townsend himself, and are far more capable of managing it. The real Townsend organizstlon la endorsing candidates for congress and are backing up Mott and Pierce for re-election and as Ma honey and Holman 'are both Townsendltes run ning for the same office tiiese are both endorsed.

Good for the bar association I ft vote shows sound judgment and good Americanism. HUOO BLACK, cowering In hotel rooms in fear of discovery of what he really Is, presented a shame ful picture a picture that nearly everyone proud of his country would like to forget. But we have him. And. although he was forced upon us In a moment of childish pique, there Is no way to get rid of him. Calling attention to his shortcomings merely brings up a painful Incident that would be better forgotten. The only thing to do about Black Is to suffer him In silence. 'T'HE bar association also rejects a resolution attacking Germany for discrimination against "law-abldlni; citizens . . . solely because of their race, religion or politics! opinions, which action hss shocked the con science of msnklnd." Again good Judgment Is shown. What Germany does about Ger mans LIVING IN GERMANY Is none of our business, snd the less we have to say about It publicly the better off we shall be. If we LOOK OUT FOR OUR SELVES, we'll have enough to do. COLD-BLOODED, you say? Of course it ts. The relation ships of nations with other nations are utterly cold-blooded and heart less, dictated entirely by narrow self- interest. Anyone who hs followed world events of the past two or three years snd still thinks otherwise Is a sentimental sap. The thing for us to do is to mind our own sffalrs. If we don't, well get our fingers badly burned and will do nobody any good, besides. MINDINO his own business is an exceedingly good way for an Individual to keep out of trouble. It Is an equally good way for nations to keep out of trouble, STREESlMEO FOR NEW PAVING Work of removing the shattered: topping preparatory to laying down the new ssphaltle concrete pavenwnt was started todsy by Wsrren-North. west, Inc., of Portlsnd on West Sixth street between Oskdsle svenue and Fir street.

Because he Is an ally of the democracy's aamer-Farley wins, his departure Is longed for with resl p&sslon by the more ardent New Dealers. He Is an amiable and canny old fellow, but the New Dealers would sell at least a piece of their souls to see him replaced by Solicitor Robert H. Jackson. Another good contender for the place Is Joseph B. Keenan. the ro tund, genial, astute fellow who Is officially Cummlngs' assistant, and unofficially the new politics! agent of the White House. But the men around the president, and, many think, the president himself, neve not lost hope of msklng Jsckson the president's successor. Thus Jsckson la the better bet. Cummlngs has long plsyed with the Ides of getting out. As for Daniel Cslhoun Roper, Hsrrp H. Woodrlng, and ClAude Swanson, they are still very busy smearing glue on their respective seats, at the commerce de partment, war department and navy department. There Is no enmity toward Swanson. His restgnstlon Is desired only because, for some time, he has been too 111 to do his Job. If he goes. Assistant Secretary Chsrles Edison, son of the Inventor, la likely to succeed him. Getting Dan Roper would probably give the members of the cabinet lynching party the most pleasure. His department hss been allowed to become en eery wilderness of politics and Incompetence, In the middle of which Is Uncle Dan himself, hope fully repeating that "All Is for the best In the best of possible worlds.-' The scheme Is to give Roper's place to a liberal Catholic, like Gov. Frank Murphy of Michigan, or to a leading La Follette Progressive. As for Harry Woodrlng. he Is a cheerful little Kansas politician, whose chief e-!sets are a pretty wife and a numerous brood of healthy children. If the lynchers have their way. he will be replaced by his aslsstant sec retary, Louis Johnson, loved by the veterans as a, former Legion com mander, and by the ardent New Dealers because he has had the sense to play In with them. The motives of the lynching party are eminently sensible. They want to take work off the president's shoulders. And they want to go Into tne liberal. conservative struggle In 1940 with a strong line-up. But the odds are heavily against them, and on the presidential Inertls. LOCAL BUILDING ABOVE AVERAGE Although the volume of tote.1 building activity In the Pacific Northwest for the first six months of 1938 Is down J9 per cent from the first half of 1937.
