Their myelins; waa not Interpreted by either party, but each Raid they would re vw the dlacusMon some other day, "We had a very frank and honest aU.vuaaion of conditions," Martin said, "I have been treated wry cor dially."

The Mooney 'I'itE unitTory Mooney case other eivihzed eountry in the world, certainly not in England, where tre fundamental purpose of law courts, is to get at the truth, not bow low toVed tape, and precedent. Once more the Supreme Court refuses to review the Mooney case. The state Supreme Court of California, some time ago, took similar action. In both instances the decisions were not based upon any judgment regarding Mooney's guilt or innocence, but solely upon technical questions regarding proper jurisdiction. REGARDLESS of whether Mooney is innocent or guilty the treatment he has received is a disgrace. For no one who knows the FIRST thing about the case denies that he was never given a fair trial, and because of admitted perjury and innumerable legal irregularities, his guilt was NEVER proved beyond a reasonable doubt. In England certainly some way would have been found to have given the man a new trial, a fair trial, and established once and for all, his guilt or innocence, before a couple of decades bad passed by. But not in this country. We hold no brief for Tom Mooney, don't deny be was a bad egg, and a trouble maker, but what he ia or isn't is not the point. The POINT is, the corner stone of American jurisprudence, is that ALL MEN ARE EQUAL BEFORE THE LAW, and every man ia innocent unless his guilt is proved beyond a reasonable doubt. The record ahows Tom Mooney has never been granted that equality and his guilt haa never been proved. Meanwhile he baa been spending the best part of his life at San Quentin, and because of the facts of his case, has become a rallying point for the long-haired radicals and pinks who maintain, there is no justice for the podr man in these United States, and the Mooney case proves it. HOW LONG will it be, and how FAR must we go before the people of this country, will snap out of their lethargy, and demand's through-going reform of our trial laws and our courts 1 Lewis and Perkins JOHN L. LEWIS isn't as bad as he's painted, few men in publio life are. Neither is Madam Perkins, Secretary of Labor, who aa far as this column has been able to determine, hasn't a friend outside the White House, either in her own party, or the opposition. History will no doubt record the former was one of the greatest champions of the forgotten worker particularly the soft coal miner, organized labor speaker, a skillful executive, a hard fighter, a natural leader. And the latter, we should surmise, will fake her place, as a capable and public-spirited social worker, who lacked the qualities which are necessary to success in practical politics, but was unselfishly devoted to what she regarded as the wel fare of her country, and the betterment of the common man, But where publio affairs are concerned, the important thing, ia not what a person really IS, but what the people, believe him, or her, to be. In other words, one doesn't face a theory, but a condition, and from the standpoint of publio policy, the wise and bene ficial thing, may not be, strictly speaking, the entirely fair and just thing. SO THIS oolumn enthusiastically seconds William Green a motion that the President of C.I.O. resign, and Bernarr Macfadden's motion that Madam Secretary Perkins, follow his example, and goes back to her For aa President Roosevelt needs of the immediate present an end to dissension and contention, But such a condition appears impossible, as long as Mr. Iwis holda his job and Madam So, if Mrs. Perkins and Mr. things as pride and saving the labor movement and the country, be a consummation devoutly to be wished. Sprague and Holman WE SHOULD say good horse sense, and a refreshing absence of table-thumping buncombe, marked the appearance of Messrs. Sprague and Holman here Monday, afternoon and evening. The Republican candidates for Governor and Senator, wasted no time in partisan tom-tom pounding, or casting aspersions upon tbeir opponents; but in a direct, earnest and convincing manner, outlined the political situation, as they view it, and what they believe ahould be done about it, Aa a paper that haa believed in the general purposes of the Roosevelt New Deal, and still believes in thein, the Mail Tribune wss glad to note this intelligent, non-partisan ami progressive viewpoint of the Republican candidates. THE Mail Tribune haa never been a partisan newspaper and under ita present management, never will be one. This ,vear, aa in the past, we shall support those candidates, local, state and national, we believe best qualified for their respective jobs regardless of what political label they may bear. And on this basis, and this basis alone, we shall support Charles Sprague over Henry Hess for Governor, and Ruftis Holman over Willis Mahoney as U. S. Senator. We feel certain, the people in Southern Oregon who will compare the characters, abilities and records of the Republican and Democratio candidates on the same common sense and unn-pniitical basis, will come to the same conclusion.

MANAGEMENT OP Raring ' held for two weeks the complete manuscript for a new, en larged edition of "The Medicine Cupboard" I fin ally let It go to press, tout some thing tells me that by the time the new booklet Is Issued X will remember what iSax C -f wss overlooked. I ViJ It seldom falls. I newly revised I a J editlon of tne K s.W rfisWi 4 booklet "Prepar ing for Maternity" was punished, and coincident with the release of the revised maternity book came this letter to remind me of what I had forgotten to mention In the booklet: Dear Dr. Brady: During my pregnancy my husband has been very sick to hla stomach. Is It true then that sometimes the husband suffers Instead of the wife? I have never been sick aa yet and It la now the seventh month. Is there a remedy? if so. I am anxloua to know about It. Gratefully yours. For prevention and relief of morn ing sickness, at least in the dis taff side of the family, it la well to make a practice of eating some sweet fruit such as orange, banana, grapes, raisins, dates, figs, or If fruit Is not Available then some candy or other sweet last thing at night nr In the middle of the night If wakeful or first thing every morning For the prventlon and relief of more serious nausea and vomiting, which sometimes amounts to a path ological complication, the prospective mother should receive an optimal dally ration of vitamin B complex to supplement her diet, say four tea spoonfuls of syrup, each teaspoon ful , containing 250 International units of vitamin B. or 6 to 8 vitamin B com- I plex tablets, each tablet containing IVt unite of vitamin B. The anxious, worried expectant father may share with his help mate In these nutritional correctives.

London and New York. I do not pur pose to add to this debate. Nevertheless, If one weren't con sclou s of the true conditions as they exlet to day a pertinent reminder would be to look at the records of Amer ican plays and actors on Plcca- fefcOfioE lucoe dllly during the last year as against the plays and people of British origin which have sought public favor on this side. When a New York producer desires a Britleh star for his play he simply Ulres him, knowing that the only restrictions Imposed will be the usual one of Immigration. This means, If he can clear Ellis Island he will be eligible for a Broadway appearance. tt Is not so easy aa this on the other side. Your British producer has the very dickens of a time clearing away official red tape when the pres ence of an American actor Is deemed advisable over there. The governing body on Piccadilly very rarely sanc tions employment for a foreign actor unless the producers are able to prove that this particular actor la essential to the welfare of the play. If a Brit lull ector can be found who can substitute for the American, the plea Is denied and the American must look elsewhere for work. Of course Equity has the real say In New York aa to who shall work and for how long they shall be em ployed, but Equity In most Instances is charitable and lenient, and if an actor la In Rood standing, and Is desired by a producer in good stand ing. Uttle difficulty Is experienced gaining the official sanction. Naturally I hope that all good plays and All deserving actors get the chance some day to play before their English speaking cousins. But In the same breath I hope no retAllatory measures re ever considered tf the English Just won't meet us half way For the Broadway drama would certainly lose If the English blood were drained away, we think a lot of Noel Coward over here, who has marie fortunes both here and In Eng land. And, by the way. did you know that every penny he has ever made In America is still over here, in American banki And enterprises And we think a lot of Sir Cedrle Hardwlcke. who has served so su perbly this Isst season In "Shadow and SuMtance." We think much of many fine British actors and aet renees who annuallv visit n in In trMl!Tnt and entertalnin make-believe, and It Is not too much to mi that If thev were denied us the New York stage would be far leaf jittsfying than It now is. tVnnt King, star of T Married An Anpel." current rave on Broao way. is English horn, and so t Fred erick lutwT, rf "Bachelor Born " Wlhou this sanction we wruld not have Oenrge Bernard ?haw, o Gert L- i OaWiS Brady, M P, MORNING SICKNESS other men have gone through the ordeal successfully, and she should further reassure him that ahe will stick with him until his sufferings are rewarded In the conventional manner.

Friends say this Is likely to cause appendi citis. (H. E. O.) AnswerOn the contrary It tends to prevent appendicitis. Notion that seeds loaged in appendix may be the cause .of Inflammation Is based on misinterpretation. A seed or similar foreign body cannot get Into a nor mal appendix, hut may enter after the appendix haa undergone change from Inflammation. Rhubarb Please give your opinion on the effects of eating rhubarb. I have eaten a good deal of It without ap parent HI effect, but many will not eat It because of the oxalic acid In It, (A. E. M.) Answer Chemical analyses indi cate that various everyday foods con tain relatively more oxalic than rhu barb does. Theory that painful ef fects may occur from eating these foods Is highly questionable. Con ception of "oxaluria," in my opinion, Is a bad guess. The Medicine Cupboard Just a line to tell you that we are delighted with "The Medicine Cup board." From the large number of recipes and practical hints It con tains we feel sure It will prove in valuable In our home. Once more, God bless "Ol Doc Brady." counsel lor and friend of us poor folk. (P. E.) Answer You make It hard for me to mention that for a copy of the "Medicine Cupboard" with Family Formulary the reader should send hard-hearted Dr. Wm. Brady twenty five cents coin, and wrlto the name and address plainly. td. Note: Persons wishing to communicate with Dr. Brady should send letter direct to Dr. William Brady, M. D.. 263 El Camlno, Beverly Hills, Calif. rude Lawrence, or Leslie Howard or any of a score of other affable and able Englishmen who have meant so much to American entertainment. I think I am as American aa the next man. and I am ambitious for the American theater to prosper, both here and abroad. But to alien ate foreign talent simply because we are finding it tough to make pro gress ourselves on certain shores would, It seems to me, be Idiotic. As Bomeone else has said, this would be as silly as a German regiment goosestepplng off a 30 story building, crying "To hell with gravity," be cause an Englishman happened to discover It.

SPRAGUE, Republican candidate for governor, has been campaigning over the week-end In Southern Oregon. He has epoken In public repeatedly, and each time what he haa said has been notable for Ita calmness, its fairness and Its wholesome sanity. These qualities are characteristic of him. FOR years, Charlie Sprague has been publishing a newspaper At Salem. He has written most of its editorials, and his writings set forth clearly the kind of man he la. He Isn't an advanced liberal, and he Isn't a hard-boiled conservative He isn't against the new, Just be cause It la new, and he isn't Impa tient with the old, Just because tt Is old. He haa an open mind, and he does his own thinking. He never goes off at half-cock. What he says Is carefully considered and Intelligently worked out. Before he makes up his mind, he la familiar with both aides. ' Those tvho have followed his writ ings have alwaya been Impressed by the fairness end the soundness of his conclusions. BEFORE Sprague was a newspaper publisher he was a banker, in a small way. Before he was a banker, he was a teacher. He has a good un derstanding of people, and as a business man he has been a suc cess. He knows what It Is to have to meet a payroll every week. He knows the Importance of spending a little less than Is taken In. He knows that nobody can spend himself rich. All these are valuable things for the governor of a state such as Oregon to know. Throughout the newspaper indus try, he l known as a fsir employer. He "gete along" with those who work for him. THIS writer has known Charlie Sprague for ten years. He "hss known him aa a sound thinker, an able business man and a de pendable friend. Those ara good things to know about a man. They glva you confidence In him. This writer Is able to ssy with conviction that If Charlie Sprague Is elected In Kovember Oregon will have as good a governor as It has ever had and that Is saying qulle a lot, for the list of Oregon's gover nors Includes some outstanding men.

TAT JC Iff TROUBLES: Quit a fw of the Capital City's numerous lec turers on current eventa are said to b complaining bitterly that dur ing the late war eoare they could find Chinese War reports tucsM in around ps.re ?3. but they had to March the c'SMlfled ads for word of the 9psnlh elvll quarrel. The Capital Parade " (Continued from Page Ona ) Henry Agard Wallace and Rei Tug well offered an Ingenious new solu tion to the farm problem tha AAA Under the AAA, tha government paid tha farmers not to plant more than a limited acreage of the unwanted crops. In the case of cotton, by the Bankhead act, tt threatened the far mere with tax penaltlea If they did overplant. And It collected the mon ey to reward them for being good by levylnn processing taxes. The processing taxes were ultimate ly collected from the consumer. Wal lace believed that the AAA would at once limit production, subsidize the uneconomic farmers, and put the automatic check of consumer protest on any greedy demand for extraaub aldes. Then the supreme court threw out the AAA. specifically Invalidat ing the processing taxes, and caus ing the abandonment c." the com pulsory control of the Benkhead ac and other supplementary laws. The next effort, the soil conservation pro gram, was therefore both taxless and voluntary. Under It. money taken from tha general fund of the treas ury waa paid to farmers for limiting production, In tha guise of a re ward for land Improvement. As early aa two years ago. It be came clear, however, that production control by simple bribery was not solng to work. To get production down low enough, the government would have had to pay tha farmers more than the treasury could stand. During the laat years, droughts havf. been the real production controllers. By a year and a half ago, the supreme court's dectslons were at a discount. Wallace began working for a new farm law. After a long struggle. It was parsed. Unluckily, It was paasM too late to be applied to this lat wheat-growing season. The Present Crltls. Leaving out the economic theory and legal verbiage, the new law lets the government do four things. It may enforce compulsory production control with the consent of a mere majority of the farmers. It may pay obedient farmers a reward for con serving their soil by not planting In It. It may give them an additional "parity benefit." which Is really a plain hand-out. And If farm prices fall. It may lend the farmera money against their crops, at level osten sibly determined by complex form ulas, but practically by world prices. In their entirety, the suthorlratlons only apply to the two big problem crops, cotton and wheat, and three minor ones. corn, rice and tobacco. The rest of the farm problem Is handled piecemeal. Unhappily, the cotton farmera went on a spree last year, producing the world record crop of 19,000,000 bales. Last-minuto compulsory control kept this year's crop to 11.800.000 bales, but. with the carry-over from last year, the tatal supply Is 3S.000.000 bales, or twice what can be used. Aa for wheat, after the drought yeara. the stHI uncontrolled wheat farmers went on their spree this summer, producing a 940.000.000 bushel crop. With last year's carry over, ghere will be about 400.000.000 bushels of unwanted wheat, whicl: will be reduced to 300.000.000 by Wallaee'a foreign dumping program As ft result, the comnulorv m.. . trol will have to be enforced next year. If It la enforced, under the most unfavorable circumstances, rhs wheat farmers, for example, will have to be askeo to reduce their plant ings by one-half. With low prices and these great planting reductions m prospect, the fanners are up In arms. Peddlers of agricultural anak oil. such as the domestic allotment scheme, are doing a rushing busi ness. Wallace Is belesguered. end the next congress Is pretty sura , to ue the ecene of tha biggest farm row yet.
