Governor Lehman, present incumbent, haa been one of the best governors New York state haa ever had, a fact whioh, regardless of party, is almost But he is a Democrat, (though not a 100 Xewdealer), and naturally the Republican leaders, want a Republican and par ticularly the Republican machine, in power at Albany. So they have, practically by Attorney Dewey as their party about even, that as a result one State has ever had, will be defeated. 7ET there is no evidence make a good Governor, any abilities .cither as a political Mr. Dewey's sole claim record as a public prosecutor, tecrs of one sort and another, particularly the state metropolis. He has done a good job, and a needed one, in this direction, though he bungled his last effort in the Hincs case pretty badly, but why should that qualify him as a successful administrator of the Empire state's affairs! It shouldn't. And from every standpoint of logic and com mon sense it DOESN'T. DUT because of his racketeer record, Attorney .Dewey is well and favorably known, throughout the state, and the Re publican managers reason, this widespread popularity is strong enough to put him over. There is ample precedent their optimism. But rationally contention is, that a man who most exceptional fashion, should be thrown out, and replaced by a man whose abilities in capacity, are entirely unknown merely because he has been successful as a public prosecutor, in a war against organized crime. But that's practical politics. The wonder is NOT that we ment in this country, but in view of the gullibility 'of the dear people, and their willingness to be flim flammed, that we have any at ALL I Is England Crumbling? ONCE more they are predicting the downfall of the British Empire. For a decade before the World War, German writers predicted it. John Bull, they claimed, had become soft and decadent; preferred his dish of afternoon tea to a dish of canister, and would be a set-up before German militar ism and frightl'uluess. Well John Bull had become soft from a Prussian drill ser geant's standpoint, but not decadent. He was not prepared for a fight on land, and in 1914, had no stomach for it, but was prepared, as usual, on the sea. And say what you will that control of the sea is what won the war for the allies, without it the Central Powers would have triumphed in three or four months, at the latest. QJO we advise those who again see a repetition of the "Rise k-' and fall of the Roman Empire," to proceed on' their way to prophecy with a certain caution. England is even less disposed was 24 years ago, but there is no reason to doubt that if it can't be avoided, the sons of her "First Hundred Thousand", will be as tough and gnllnnt, as their fathers were before them, and other hundreds of thousands It takes a lot to arouse old dnn't worry, he will give a good Evon more important, however, let the prophets of gloom, not forget this; England not only still controls, the seas, Ger many has formally 'abandoned all efforts to CHALLENGE that control ! So put this in your pipe and So long as England controls only hold together, hut in war or peace will be the strongest single force for the rest of the world to reckon with.

VITAMIN A AND Theoretically vitamin A Is an Im portant factor In nutrition. Practi cally It seems to me negligible, so far aa we are con- ceraed In North A m e r 1 a. So many everyday fooda, even In the refined and preserved forma In which moat of our modern food cornea to us. contain vitamin A that only an rise to a serious deficiency of It. Some of the foods rich In vitamin A will be mentioned presently. Prof. Edward Mellanby presents In ills book "Nutrition and Disease" (Oliver it Boyd, London, 1934) the most' Impressive argument I have read or heard for the theory that shortage of vitamin A Is a cause of disease of the nervous system. He says: In the last 38 montha I have treated 13 cases (of dlsaemlnatew or multiple sclerosis) with a diet which I have described aa a high vitamin A diet It Includes 1 to 3 pints of milk dally, two egga, mammalian liver, green vegetables and carrots, and cod liver oil two teaspoonfuls twice dally. After discharge from the hospital the patients were told to continue on the same diet, but In some Instances this was Impossible for monetary reasons. although most of them made the attempt to carry out the Instructions In some form." Mellanby remarks that two polnta Impressed themselves on his mind, first the great Improvement that takes place In the early casea, bow- ever aevere, an Improvement from which there had been no relapse: and second, the stationary condition of tho more chronic (long atandlng) cases these patients got no better out no worse. Mellanby'e high vitamin A diet Is a high vitamin diet too. I'm Just a poor, plodding practitioner of the old school and what I don't know about chemistry fills huge tomes, but so far I have come across no convincing clinical evidence that vita min A Is worth a hoot for anything. However, It can do no harm to try out the high vitamin A diet In any Rogue River Valley Capable of " Far Greater Development Says State Planning Board The possibility of Increasing agn- tracts, no diversion for Irrigation are cultural land in Southwestern Oregon made from the main channel of the la clearly atated In a report Just pub- Rogue River.

A preliminary flood -control survey waa recently made of the Umpqua River by the u. B. Geological survey.

Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS HTSRX la an Interesting psragraph from a dispatch from Stanford university : "The Stanford food research institute estimated today that the world's 1938 wheat yield will be five billion bushels, perhaps the greateat In the history of mankind's struggle for food." A THOUSAND years ago, that news would hevebeen GOOD NEWS. The people would have said: "The specter of famine la laid. There- Is food for all. Let ua rejoice and make merry." Today, people SHUDDER when they learn that the 1938 wheat crop will eb the greatest since the world began. They say: "Woe be unto us. What shall we do In the face of this calamity?" The world haa changed, haant It? LVT ua read a little farther Into this Stanford dispatch. Upon doing so, we learn that on August 1, 1939, the unused supply of wheat in the world wilt be about 1,070,000.000 bushels. Sines th world uses 75, 000,000 bushels of wheat each week, the prospective surplus represent a 14-week supply that will have to be carried' over Into the 1939 harvest. ORDINARILY an eight-week suply of wheat Is enough to carry the world Into a new harvest. We've gained six weeks on our selves, you see. SOMEWAY, that has considering everything happened since the world began, It's hard to believe that i an added leeway of six weeks between exhaustion of the old year's Supply of wheat and the harvesting of the new year's crop can be a calamity. Maybe we're Just thinking, wrong THE world has done wrong think ing before, you know, and aa i result has been unnecessarily fright ened. There wa a gloomy economist who taught, not so long ago. that popu lation tend to Increase faster than the capacity of the earth's soil to produce food. It was therefore, he said, only a question of time until wa muat all DIE OF STARVATION or, at least, those least able to pro vide for themselves must die. mjfALTHUS (this gloomy economist) If I was WRONG, tlon, the problem now face tha food what to do with all produce. If Malthua wa wrong In hla belief that population tend to Increase faster than Its means of subsistence, maybe those who now tell, us that the modern world tends to produce mora than it can consume are also wrong.
