Will It Be Win Monday? rTHZ best indication war will not break out in Europe tomor- row is the widespread fear bat it will. A week ago, the skipper of tliis column received a communi cation from New York marked "confidential" which stated, Herr Hitler and his storm troops would march into Czecho slovakia, early Monday morning, August 15th. This tip was part of a well known financial advice service. That the information behind the report, did influence the stock market, is generally conceded. But that it means, in some way Hitler's secret war plans have "leaked" and he really DOES intend, or has intended, to add the scalp of Czecho-Slovakia to his belt, as ho did that of Austria a few months ago on a certain date is to say the least, exceedingly DOUBTFUL. FOR while Hitler may not be as smart as his adoring Brown Shirts maintnin, he is certainly nobody's fool. And on one but a fool in his position would let his war plans leak out, or allow a rumor of militant action go unchallenged if he really intended to TAKE it. And there is every indication that this report of a German smash tomorrow morning, hag not been discouraged by Berlin, and some indication that it was inspired, originally by a certain press agency not far from der Wilhelm Strasse. AT any rate our advice, to security holders, who subscribe to Ihn ahnva finnncinl service, would be to dclav the dumrintr of their holdings on the market European war this week, is concerned. Of course a war May break, ANYTHING may happen in this cock-eyed world, but we repeat the best indications it won't, is the general belief, it will. For as the situation now could start a European war, when all her neighbors and enemies expect it. When she does strike, it will be in the dark, without warning with the expecta tion that the "coup d'etat" can was the case with Austria practically overnight. SO calm yourself Mr. Coupon Clipper and don't let these wild rumors from Paris and Berlin get you down. We are not saying this may not be the time at all about that, but we are European war coming off as advertised is, (at least in our judg ment) no better thnn one of these doughnut to a million dollar, bets. Time To Call A Halt O PEAKING of communications J fldifnrial ripnk worthy of comment. One is from the "Associated lined Hood River, giving an of the so-called "anti-picketing ballot this November. Another is from a labor representative in Coquille declaring this same measure is nothing unions in this state. and surprisingly enough urging the editor to "stick by your class" THAT "stick by your class" tliA rnnininniention instead direct communication to this but was really, merely a copy of labor unions, in this part of The two communications however are good examples of what to expect during the approaching measures, but candidates are efforts to boost one side or the votes. TO return to that "stick by your class" however. It reminds us nf nnr iYniripnnpH n rounlo of vears aero when on a trip the Atlantic coast, we encountered large numbers of old acquaintances who could roughly be classified as economic royalists. They didn't express the thought quite so crudely, perhaps, but they did make the same general appeal, to the effect that in such parlous times all adults with any savings outside of their weekly pay check, were capitalists, and there fore should do everything in their power to defeat Roosevelt, in other words should stick by THEIR class. And so it goes. This reprehensible appeal to class prejudice, is like many other political slogans, it depends so much upon whose ox is gored. As a matter of fact the appeal was used two years ago, and will be used this year and two years hence, not on ONE but on BOTH sides of the political fence. ND tliis, we agree, is unfortunate, regrettable. if not checked mav even prove tragic. In fact we would go so far as to say, that practically all the serious troubles not only in this country, but the world at large can be grouped under this general heading of class hatred and class prejudice. And tho only hope of this see it, is to somehow, someway out of the mad psychosis that is so over the abyss to its destruction. 'OR what are these dictatorships abroad for example but political products of class hatreds and class prejudices, he deification of one class aiiainst another, the subjugation of one class, or one race, TO another. And as these two communications show, we have our class war, on this side of the Atlantic, mild it is true, but the germ is ake root and flourish, then what radons teeth t Our Coquille communicant anti-picketing measure, not because it is wrong or unjust in this or that particular, but because it threatens the supremacy of HIS ilas.

William Brady, 263 El (.'amino, Beverly Hills, Calif. ' LOW BLOOD The most frequent caue of low blood pressure U anemia. It must be remembered that low blood pres sure U not a disease and cannot be Intelligently treated without an understanding of the condition of which It la sign. It would be as foolish to follow a diet or treatment or take medicine for low blood pressure without particu lar regard for what, if any thing, alls the patient, aa It la to attempt to lower or correct high blood pressure In any such blind way. It must be remembered too that certain Indi viduals normally have blood pressure lower than the average. Just as some of us may have a pulse rate slower than the average. It Is my conviction that the less a layman knows or Imagines he knows aout blood pressure, the better for his health. I have always had bradycardia, which, I blush to Bay, means alow heart and has nothing to do with my name. When I last noticed, many years ago, my blooa pressure was lower than the average, too. But what do I care? Although I have been examined a great many times and could have read the blood pres sure as It was measured, l have never been Interested enough to pay any attention to It. Even If tt were abnormally high or low, It would be futile to fel anxious abou it or to attempt to do anything about It other than the diagnosis' and treat ment of the condition responsible. A certain type of constitution, body build, physical development or make up, variously designated ns "asthenic," weak" or "entcroptotlc," la generally associated with low blood pressure. These Individuals are usually flat- chested, long-walstcd. moro or less sway-bneked or lordotic, that Is, the forwnrd curve of the spine Is exng- gerated. They usually, have falling, sagging or ptosis of various abdom inal organs. Inheritance of poor structural material may be a factor of this constitutional or physical frailty, but In my Judgment tnade- i quate physical education In child hood and youth Is a more Important factor. We cannot here consider the question In detail. Some practical suggestions may be found in the new edition of the Last Brady Symphony, complete words and music for 10 1 cents coin, If you accompanv your I Man About Manhattan By QEOIUJH ILChhH NEW YORK Until a vear or so ago I was as curious as anyone as to who would play Scarlett O'Hara. but now it hardly seems Important any more, rhey have fiddled around too long.

In another large group of Indi viduals with low blood pressure the fundamental trouble la nutritional deficiency, shortage of calcium, phos phorus and.

George, and nominate Lawrence Camp In his place. (In Georgia, the Democratic nom ination Is the same as election). THE reasons offered by the Pres ident for wanting George de feated and Camp nominated are clear-cut and definite. They are: t. Senator Oeorge WILL NOT go along with him In everything he wants to do. 3. Camp WILL go along. Mr. Roosevelt added: "To carry out my responsibil ity as President, It la. clear that there should be co-operation be tween members of my own party and myself." ' That Is to ssy, all Democrats should do whatever he wants them to do. ' v WITH that theory, this writer le not In sympathy. . Congressmen are not elected Just to "go along" with the President In whatever he wants to do, regardless of their own convictions. Congress is a separate branch of our government, equal in power with the President. It la expected to use Its own independent Judg ment not merely to put Its OK whatever the President wants. Just because he wants it. When, as has been the case for the past several years, the Presi dent's , party has such an over whelming majority In congress as to be supreme In power and con temptuous of opposition, "going along with the President" in what ever he happens to want brings us dangerously near to the brink of dictatorship. ' To say the very least that can be raid, It puts too much power in one man's hands. B UT, whether or not one agrees said In Georgia the other day, one must admire the forthrlghtness with which he said it, and the good sportsmanship he displayed in the manner of Its saying. In the past, with few exceptions, (one notable exception being Ken tucky) he has pussyfooted, trying to give the Impression that he was not interfering with any state's politics, whereas he manifestly WAS Interfering. In Georgia, he came squarely out Into tho open and said what he wanted to say. This writer admlrea that method and commands Presi dent Roosevelt for ualng it. It is to be hoped that he uses it oftener. The Capital Parade (Continued from Page One.) the continent, he softened visibly, until hla friends and enemies both concluded that he would abandon his purge of the democracy. And now the purge Is on again. It's hard to understand why It was Interrupted, but, nevertheless, It Is on. It Is fool ish to try to predict the president's actions. But now once more. It seems fairly certain that whatever he does, it will be aggressive. 4 ' File Park Vote Plea PORTLAND. Aug. 13.
