Like Washington, It will be one of the few carefully planned capitals of the world with every modern idea Incorporated from fut ure artistic development to earth quake proof bulldlnga I F. D. R. Escapes a "Shut Out" WELL as the purges President Hoosevelt lost were all crushing personal defeats, the one he didn't lose yester day must, by the same token be an outstanding personal victory. Of course it isn't as simple as that. Too many factors enter into a STATE contest, to chalk up the result as clear-cut triumphs, or clear-cut reverses, for any NATIONAL figure, even if the figure happens to be President and has expressed his personal preferences, as the leader of his party. But when it comes to partisan politics, we don't as a people, go into scientific analysis very much, that's known as splitting hairs so it is fair to state, F. D. R.'g purge adventure will go down into the contemporary records, as a 7-1 beating only saved at the 11th hour by "Gas House John" 0 'Conner, from a complete shut-out. A S has been previously stated in this column, while W' upheld the President in if possible create a new party that type is right down this it didn't succeed, believing the the President and also for the Now instead of popular fears and suspicions being intensi. fied they will be lessened; and a man of the President's ten!' perament, can't help but be sobered and slightly chastened by such an experience, which, at this stage of the game is a desirable thing. IN other words the net result will be to clear the political atmosphere, settle the grounds in the national coffee pot so to speak, and make constructive political progress from this point on, more likely rather, than less so. Finally the defeat of "Gas Democrat, automatically makes lican opposition in the same heading of poetic justice, or SOMETHING ! Self Interest Supreme WE NOTE a contemporary accuses England of "physical cowardice and moral bankruptcy." "Perfidious Albion has also become spineless and deserting small and unoffending Czechoslovakia, whereas iu 1914, "she gallantly and nobly marched to, the defense of Belgiura." Yes a ease can be made out years ago England officially, because of the latters disregard particularly its invasion of Belgium. And today, although Frartee signed a treaty pledging Czechoslovakia armed assistance and England has had an understanding with France to aid her in caso of such an emergency, They both, refuse to honor their pledges, formal and in formal, and throw Czechoslovakia to the wolves to save, their own skins. NOT a pretty picture. And yet, we fear impartial history (which is not particularly interested in sentimental or even moral abstractions), will not support our contemporaries view. In fact our belief is, history th snme identical motives in both instances, motives of self interest, what the government considered was best for England. IN OTHER words it was not to protect "little Belgium" that England declared war on channel ports from falling into thus threaten her own destruction. If Germany were threatening ening France, nothing would in. But that is precisely what bitious lie in other directions. And as Jong as they do, England and France are not going to fight and die for any more "little Belgiums. A rather cynical and heartless interpretation, perhaps, but we fear, time will demonstrate, 60,000 FILIPINO BACHELORS CAUSE BAN TOANCI8C0 (AP) Stlty thousand bachelora. who have no hope of marrying or rearing fam ine, are proving a problem to social agencies and themselves. They are Filipinos the latest ad dition to America' melting pot and the ona that appeara least likely to melt.

Uetrrlj mm, Calif. CASTOR OIL The common notion, cherished by soma old-time doctor a well a laity, that castor oil Is soothing to Inflam mation and hense all right to give In any acute ab dominal trouble, Is utterly wrong. In fact castor oil la an Irritant, produces It ca thartic effect chiefly by irrita tion of the atom a o h and bowel, and 1 Just a harmful or even dangerous In the presence of acute bellyache at it any other laxative or cathartic , An acute digestive disturbance, whether accompanied with colic, pain or Just vague distress and tension must always be regarded a possible appendicitis, and therefore it la dan gerous for the patient to take any kind of laxative or cathartic until the question of appendicitis la defi nitely settled. Administration of a physic In the early stage of appen dicitis lncreasea the chance of rup ture and general peritonitis enfutng, whether operation 1 done or not. Therefore the warning should be pasted in the medicine cupboard: Laxatives are bad medicine for belly ache. - Castor oil Is good medicine for external use. Being somewhat soluble In alcohol a few drops of It will Improve hair tonics or dandruff lo tions which leave scalp or hair too dry. A drop of castor oil In the eye will relieve the Irritation caused by sand or by ganular lids. A mixture of equal parta of castor oil. olive oil and lanolin may be used with advantage by printer and other workers whose hands are much ex posed to chemicals, solvents and harsh cleaning agents. Apply a few drop to skin of hands and arms before beginning work for the day, and again after cleaning up at the end of the day. Altogether castor oil haa probably done much more harm than good In the world.

Of course there are ways to disguise the nau seous taste of castor oil and tricks of administering It so that, a dose may be taken without breaking any commandments. But for the life of me I can't understand why any youngster who doesn't particularly care for castor oil on his pancakes or on his stomach should take any. Please put this In the medicine cup board too. Of course a sick doctor is a fool to try to doctor himself. If I were sick I'd submit to the care of a well doctor, and If he prescribed a beaker of castor oil and maybe a nice big dose of calomel and careful protec tion against draft I'd take It all without argument or else I'd fire the doctor and call in an up-to-date man. For I suppose as long as old wives' tales are told some doctors will con tinue to prescribe castor oil and for all I know there may be honest, well-meaning practitioners still giving calomel.

Communications First Postmaster at Jacksonville To the Editor: On September 13. 1838, there ap peared on page 10 of The Medford Mall Tribune some Information about early post offices in Jackson county, uregon. mis is in connection with a study which is being made by Mr DeSouza. Some yeara ago I obtained from the post office department at Wash ington, D. c, photostat copies of a tew pages or the first record book of Oregon post offices. The following information is taken therefrom: Dardanells post office was estab- nsnea October 19. 1853, and the first postmaster was William O, i vault. Thla Is in accordance with your newspaper article, but the orig inal record book Indicates that this post office was discontinued August 3. 1854. This date differs consider ably from the published Informa tion. It Is possible thst the office was re-established some time after 1854. and continued until 1878. but the records that I have do not ex tend later than about 1855. and It had not been re-established up to thst time. Your data about the post office at Manseneta Is In accordance with the early records. Jacksonville post office was estab lished February 18. 1854. with R. Dugan first postmaster. Sylvester H. Taylor was appointed postmaster on December 19, 1854. Port Orford post office was estab lished March 37, 1855. with Reginald H. Smith flrat postmaster. This is In accordance with your Information There la a note In the record book to Indicate that It was later In "Coos county. The Information In the original record book about Leland Is In ac cordance with your article, and the same Is true for the post office at "can Kiver. Published data about Ashland Mills are correct, except thst rsny post office records .show it in Marion county." This will supply the Information that you are after about the first postmaster at Jacksonville. Very truly yours. UTWIS A. MrARTHITR. Secretary Oregon Geographic Board. rortland, September 19.

Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JKNK1NS IT Democratic senator; J-4 votfd for nearly everything the President wanted, but balked at the supreme court bill and a few other odds and ends of his program were marked for defeat at the primaries. Mr. Roosevelt wants what he wants when he wants It, and Is inclined to be resentful when it Isn't forth coming. ALL EIGHT were renominated. NOT ONE fell by the wayside, THAT Is to say, the voters who are the constituents of these sen i a tors, have said to the President, In sxibstance; "Mr. Roosevelt, we like you AS PRESIDENT. But we don't want you to bo the. President and the supreme court and the congress, all rolled Into. one. That Is too much power to put into ONE MAN'S hands. "We approve the action of these senators in using their independent Judgment as to the measures pre sented to them, and so we are vot ing for them again, in spite of your recommendation that we vote for someone else who will go with you ALL THE TIME Instead of going with you only when ho thinks you are right." THAT, In the Judgment of this writer. Is the plain and simple lesson of the big purge that didn't p;-T. LET us be careful not to misread the lesson of the primaries. Mr. Roosevelt Isn't down and out. He has been reprimanded by " the voters, who - are still the sovereign pDver in this nation. He hasn't lost his popularity. You reprimand your child when it reaches for something it shouldn't have, but your reprl mand doesn't mean that you hnv.- ccFPd to love the child. P President Roosevelt were cam paigning for re-election for a SEC OND TERM this fall, he would un doubtedly be re-elected. If he were campaigning for a third term, he MIGHT be re-elected. He la still a tremendous power to be reckoned with. But the voters In eight statea have said to him very plainly Indeed that f want hli to remain content with being PRESIDENT and don't want him to reach out for control of ccr.'rt. and the courts. The voters In these eight states ... v l.:t no doubt In anyone's mind i..at they admire and SUPPORT In dependence in congress.

Box a. psrlflc lllrhttit l.ranl P The Capital Parade (Continued frum Page One) Tom Corcoran and Ben Cohen first began to figure in the New Deal, delegation of prosperous Jews 1 said to have waited on Frankfurter. Cohen was Frankfurter's protege. Frankfurter might succeed In per suading him to leave the field to his Irish partner. And so they made the same argument to Frankfurter that has now been made to Frank lin Roosevelt. As the story goes. Frankfurter's only answer was a scornful: "Ah. I see you would build your own Ghetto." . It Is a bitter commentary on the American people's Intelligence to sup pose they can be offended by the nomination of Felix Frankfurter. In deed, it's. a kind of. reductlo ad ab surd um of antl-semltlsm, for It is based on the theory that the voters would prefer a bad to a good Judge, Just because the good Judge bad the wrong grandparents. No one has questioned that Felix Frankfurter would make a good Judge. Holmes, the Yankee aristo crat; William Howard Taft, the ami able monster from the mid-west; Franklin Roosevelt, the Hudson river squire these and scores of other leaders of American life have cher ished him as a man and admired htm as a disinterested public ser vant. Hardly a respectable volce has been raised against his nomination since It was first proposed. And the very men who have gone privately to the president hold him In high esteem. And the chances are fair that. If the president passes Frankfurter over, his choice wlU be bad. The fact that Senator Sherman Mlnton of Indiana la being seriously named should be sufficient evidence. Indeed, there is faction among the labor groups and on the New Deal's extreme left which now actually demands an out rageous nominee on the theory that the supreme court Is an outmoded institution, and that the best way to destroy It Is to staff it with mounte banks and quacks. There is only one excuse ( for the delegation that visited the president Some signs Indicate that antl-seml-tism is increasing in this country. But the reason Is not that men like Frankfurter have done brilliant work for their country. The reason 1 that certain reactionaries have started the propaganda machine going, from mo tives as sordid aa a Klan night-shirt salesman's. Every honest conserva tive, every man who believe In con serving what la best In America must be deeply disgusted by the slimy nonsense of these men. PASS VOTE UPON GRANTS PASS. Sept. 31.

FORGOTTEN ART FOUND IN TRUNKS UNOPENED ICE SPANISH WAR PHILADELPHIA (UP) Forgotten monochrome drawings by Joseph Boggs Beale, and other prominent Philadelphia artists of the 19th cen tury have been found In several old trunks presented to the Penn sylvania Arta and Sciences society. Unopened since the Spanish-American war, the trunks were given to the society by Cnspar W. Briggs. who recently received the organization's distinguished service medal for hla Invention in 1876 of the first mod ern animated screen pictures. The entire collection has not been catalogued yet. but among the finds were historical, scientific, religious and literary pictures by Bealo and Herman Thoiey; a landscape by Xanthus Smith, who painted the murals In Philadelphia School for Design for Women during the '70s and '80s. and Civil war pictures by Nlslle. an artist employed by Briggs' predecessors In the manufacture of magic lantern slides. Included In the collection are two sets of animated pictures drawn by Thoiey and believed to be the oldest animal screen pictures In existence. They are titled "The Farmer and His Calf," and "The Elephant's Re venge." Briggs was one of the leading pro ducers of magic lantern slides at the time he invented animated 'c tures. and employed the artists to prepare slides for him. Invites rarole Lombard RENO. Nev.
