Give Them a Try at It IT'S probably because nominally thii column has never been Democratic, that it feels as it does. While it has strongly favored President Roosevelt and the New Dealers, in most of their efforts, it has no particular qualms, is engulfed by sno tidal wave of acute nausea, at the prospect of the Republicans returning to power again. In fact we admit, while in this confessional mood, that there would be considerable consolation on our part, , if this should be the outcome ten days, or two years hence. We know a majority of our Democratic friends won't be able to understand this, or excuse it. To them there is some thing inherently indecent about the Republican party and all its works, no right thinking or right feeling person, they feel, can subscribe to it. To them the more or less moth-eaten and unobjectionable elephant has never been the official Q. O. P. symbol, but .Tom Nast'i famous figure of corruption, a heavy-jowled, bleery eyed. individual, with a big black cigar hanging from one side of his mouth, diamond shirt stud, and. dollar signs all over his protruding waistcoat. ' - LT&hh now and then we feel the same way about it. But " not all the time. Which is only another way of saying that, while we believe since 1933, the Democratic party has bad the right idea about what must be done if American democracy is to be preserved, and the Republican party hasn't (in fact the G. 0. P, hasn't had any constructive ideas at all) we have no feeling of obligation or loyalty toward the former; no con viction that if, for any reason the Democratic party should be forced to retire from action, all that is beautiful and pure and worth while in public life, would retire with it. ;'' ' In other words, we would rather LIKE to have the Republi cans return' to power and be where they could no longer merely TALK about how terribly everything is being done in DO something about it. TTHE Democrats have had six years at it, and will have two years more. Our own opinion is, everything considered, they have done a pretty good job. , , '. . But we have yet to find a 100 Republican in good standing who would agree with us, In fact we have seldom found one who, sooner or later didn't maintain, that everything President Roosevelt has done, has been wrong, and the next two years are nothing more nor less, than a race between the return of the Q.O.P. and national catastrophe. Okeh, then by all means let the Q.O.P. have a crack at it and see what it can do. For no one denies, the unemployment problem hasn't been solved; the national 'budget hasn't been balanced (and only Heaven knows when it will be) ; the farm puzzle is still a puzzle; the threat of war hasn't been eliminated and a hundred and one other things in this country, (and this world) are not what they should be. "Twenty million Republicans" say the only thing wrong is Franklin' D. Roosevelt and the Democratic party. All right, why not take them at their word, and let them prove the truth of their contention. . Not having been born below been christened by Grover Cleveland, this column feels disposed to. welcome such an experiment.

There is not even a negative argument in condition is always a bad sign. them no one takes the trouble the votes are counted it is discovered that as usual the "forninst the governmentcrs" were there, and the measure failed by default. N the second place, for the first time in this column's recollec tion the affirmative argument for this proposal, has been turned over to the poeta. The again about how "Spring's green witchery is weaving" on the "Beautiful Willamette" and Dean Collins projects a modern and fortunately humorous poetic Such an experiment is iiiterenting but we are fearful how the Oregon electorate will react. For quarter of a century this valve for those poetically suppressed, entitled the "Poet's Corner" and all surveys have indicated that less than one-half of one percent of our readers over read this column, passing it up instinctively and unerringly as the wily timber wolf does poisoned meat. Moreover it is doubtful if those who DID read it, were ever sure as to precisely what was meant. So with no argument against the measure to arouse the natural contrariness of the genua homo, and nothing but a poetic argument in ita favor, the prospects for success are far from bright. That is the chief reason we are giving the proposal a boost at this time. It is going to need it. And as before stated it should pass. For this measure, as Mr. Birch points out in another column, places stream purification and beaut if ication upon a scientific and common sense basis. L'ntler its provisions there vis every reason to believe, that actual' pollution will be avoided on one hand, and fi.shiug will be improved, without impairing legitimate mining, on the other. Another consummation, devoutly to be wished. Mt SPEED SUPREMACY IS AMERICA'S ANSWER TO EUROPEAN RIVALS WAflHINOTON. Oct, 98.

FILLING OUT THE In certain cases of overweight, or rather say oversize south of the equator, the fat accumulates mainly about the hips and thighs, and the face may be pos itively gaunt. In telligent moder ate regulation of the diet some times the patient finds It hard to consume all the food the physi cian prescribe! together with endocrine treat ment, that la, admlnlstra 1 1 o n of pituitary hor- m o n e by the physician, Till bring about a redis tribution of the fat. In some cases Judicious use of thyroid hormone alone or with pituitary, gives better results but that Is a problom for the physician to consider In each Indi vidual case. Aside from that, I know of no method or means of causing either a deposit of fat or fleeh In a particular place or removing fat or flesh from one portion of the body without af fecting the fat or flesh elsewhere. But then, I don't believe In Santa Claus any more either. If you are suscep tible to persuasion there are plenty of charlatans who are willing to show you, at your expense, that they can bake, masrage, burn, dissolve, break down or otherwise get the fat off or on wherever you want It off or on. I'm telling you, without obligation on your part, that It can't be done. You pay your money and take your choice. But now we come a-runnln with good news for the 811m Jims and the Skinny Winnies. Remember the In sulin method of gaining weight which we suggested here some time ago? Well, that proved highly satisfactory In a few Instances, moderately effec tive In more, disappointing In most cases. I gather from the tone of the reports that trickled in from various parts of the country. But here Is the good word, and I hope ten thousand skinny readers will make a note of it and begin the treat ment without delay. One who has been underweight for years, of low vitality or vlte, with poor appetite, nervousness, rapid pulse rate, will generally Improve in every respect If he or she supplements the regular diet with not less than 1,000 Inter national units of vitamin B, In the form of vitamin B complex tablets (each tablet contains 250 units of vitamin B) or vitamin B complex 1 Man About Manhattan B.v OKORGE TUCKER NEW YORK Things that continue to baffle and confuse me: The ban on strip-tease . . . The law says you can't stand before the footlights and peel off one gar ment at a time . . . That's Im moral . , . But you can come out shrouded In a cape, toss the cape off with one gesture, and stand there per fectly nude . . . There Isn't any thing Immoral In doing that, ac cording to the Interpretation of the law . . . If fetORGE TUCKM there were and If it were enforced there wouldn't be many ntghtclubs on Broadway do ing business. It all bolts down to this: Nudity la okay. If you want to wear no clothes at all, well and good. If you want to out-do your Victorian grandmother and wear 49 starched petticoats, that's okay too. But you've got to undress In the privacy of your dress ing room. To strip on the stage Is i sure method of earning a one-way ticket to the hooscgow. In the old Republic theater, where, the ghosts of immemorial strip-dancers flutter like the shadows of slowly discarded garments, a staff of film technicians set up a shop at midnight and prepared to film some Interior shots for a new motion picture. Wal ly Ford wss there. Patricia Ellis wn there too. There was a director and all the baggage that goes with mak ing a picture. But that wesnt Important. The thtng that occurred to me was, here closed another chapter In the blesrre careers of the fabulous Minsk ys . . . The Republic was a burlesque land mark on 43nd street. Just off Broad way . . For years the bald-headed row hed shouted coarse and obscene remarks to the blondes and brunettes who paraded before the footlights. taking off their clothes one Itttlr gar ment at a time. Here, to the derisive shouta of the onlrokera. the little dimpled darlings Invaded the orchestra and kissed the customers on their bald heads.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Slouch 1 am 17, active, good baseball and basketball player, but my posture Is poor falt-chested, round shouldered, and hold my head forward. How can I develop my chest and keep my head up in tne correct position? (A. R.) Answer Practice belly breathing exercise night and morning. Every hour by the clock, whether sitting playing or walking, snap into as nearly correct posture as you can achieve and hold It a few moments. Never mind your chest. Send stamped envelope and ask for Instructions for belly breathing exercise. Or enclose 30 cents coin for booklet "How to Breathe." Left -Handed I do not agree with you. I am left handed. All machines are made for right-handed people. For instance, I can't use a simple potato-parer be cause I am left-handed. So I say, if you have a left-handed child teach him to write and do other things only with the right hand. .It will save the child a handicap through life. (K. S.) Answer Perhaps so, If the child la destined to be a robot. If the child has the promise of any special talent or Intellectual attainment, then do not interfere with natural 1 eft-handed ness If you do, you may handicap the child throughout life. If forced right-handedness occurs In early childhood speech Impediment Is a likely consequence. About one in every 25 persons Is naturally left handed. About one In every 25 potato-parers, etc., might be made for left-handed users. In the manu facture of shoes 80 per cent of the entire output Is desired for the left foot. The conventional objection to left-handed writing Is nothing, but prejudice relics of the old marl tlnet schoolmaster. (Copyright 1938, John F. Dllle Co.) Ed.

(AP Hun gary and Czechoslovakia appeared to day to be on the way to a peaceful settlement of their long-standing and often-threatening territorial dispute. The Budapest government In a new note last night accepted the Czechoslovak offer to cede to Hun gary about 9860 square miles of land with predominantly Hungarian popu lation. Hungary also agreed military ex perts should meet immediately to organise Ceech evacuation and Hun garian occupation of the area and that a German-Italian arbitration commission should deal with eight disputed rilstrtcts. CsechOAlqvakla had demanded the mediators settle the entire dispute and fix a time for the occupation of the whole area demanded by Hun gary. Central Point CENTRAL POINT. Oct. 38. (Spl.)

Comment on the Day's News By FBANK JENKINS SECRETARY of the Interior Harold Ickea, the New Deal's knock 'em down and drag 'em out specialist, charges In a speech at Bonneville that "Oregon Is troubled with a tory press." THAT, of course, raises (his ques tion: "What la a tory newspa per?" This la the answer: A tory news paper Is a newspaper that prints something we don't like. BECAUSE they have known htm In timately for years as a. fair minded and public-spirited eitlaen, nearly all of Oregon's editors are saying nice things about Charlie Sprague. Sprague Is the Republican candi date for governor of Oregon. Henry Hess, hla opponent, la not only the Democratic party's candidate but ts the New Deal's candidate as well. (The New Deal has no business trying to Influence a purely state election in Oregon, but Is doing it anyway, for reasons of its own.) - Ickes doesn't Ilka It when Oregon's editors say nice things about the candidate who Is opposing HIS can didate, so he charges that Oregon's newspapers are tory newspapers. It's time-honored politics, but poor sportsmanship. SPRAGUE, speaking In Portland the other day, made this statement: "I refuse to ride Into office In a car riage of rosy promises." Add up all the rosy promises made by vote-chasing demogogues In the last six years and then figure out how much bacon end eggs they've bought for YOU. Promises are cheap, but when you try to eat them you get awfully hun- AS between the candidate who says: "Elect me and you'll have ham and greens In the pot the rest of your life' end the candidate who says: "If you elect me 111 do my honest best, but J. can't make any guarantee," this writer will vote un hesitatingly for the latter. This promise diet Is getting thin. CO-EDS at the University of Ore gon, we read in the papers, don't like Joe College's unwashed cords, and what's more they don't like "the unkempt hair, the frequent stubble on the face and the dirty shoes that seem to go with the sloppy cords." But, the dispatch adds, there Is no shortage of dates on the campus even among wearers of the cords. The co-eds are like the rest of us they talk, but they don't do much about it. 4 Communications Plragrees With Mr. Jenkins To the Editor: The usually fine column by Frank. Jenkins went punk Oct. 26th. He attacked the proposed liquor control bill as being worse than the present system. But criticizing the minor details of the bill Is merely a smoke screen to keep the voters from pon dering 1 ts m al n ob J ec tl ves , as set forth In section 1. This bill will put the ban on liquor sales In scores or hundreds of villages. and In thousands of hotels, restau rants, cafes, drug stores, groceries, pool halls, soda fountains, road houses, etc. It will restrict liquor sales to the state stores. Something nk0 the rMtrictlona placed on many other poisons. They can only be sold iDT registered pharmacists. Perhaps no one would claim that this bill Is perfectly framed In all of its minor detalla. But which of the 13 measures before ua Is perfectly framed? This writer thinks even he could Improve several of them. But let no one be side-tracked from the main Issue, as set forth In Section 1,' of the bill, by what may seem to him llko a flaw In some minor detail. Such things can be easily Ironed out by the legislature or the courts. And remember, our present system Is a hideous mistake from top to bottom. In Nov. 1633 in trying to defeat the Knox law. thla writer said In the Msll Tribune: -The old saloon was bsd enough, but what they now pro ooee to put In lta niace will he nn." The truth of that statement la now being demonstrated every day In thousands of places. At first m.n. church people were shocked, and iusei io ouy groceries from liquor Joints. But watch them now ttu.i.. regularly at liquor storea quite Indif ferent aa to what else la being sold there Well, experience haa shown ua nrn me old saloon method (which segregated the business) waa definitely sunerlor " snri is., bltlon was Infinitely auperlor.

For Pure Water mil To the Editor: j Thla Is a letter In support of an I initiative measure entitled -Water Purification and Prevention or roi lutlon BUI," and enclosed la an edl tolral from Engineering and Mining Journal (New York), which may be too long for you to print. Briefly, Dr. Ward'a conclusions, re ferred to to this editorial, are that muddy water la not injurious to fish, but doea Interfere with fishing, no matter what may have been, the source of the mud. This bill provides for the creation of a commission to enforce the law, and this commission be kept free from politics, neither the miner nor the sportsman will have anything to fear. In the case of the governing board of the state department of geology and mineral industries, of which I have the honor to be a member, and which is certainly not politically con trolled, I Insisted that science and not hysteria be our guide, and had the full backing of the director and the other two members of the board. The result was the examination and report by Dr. Ward, and the board provided for In the pending bill should and, unless politically con trolled, probably will, approach the subject In the same spirit of scien tific fairness. I therefore favor the bill. ALBERT BURCH Med ford, Oregon. . : Oct. 27, 1D38. 4 Roosevelt' with the ghost of William McKlnley. v .. But there are two additional fac tors which change the balance of the aituatlon. The first la the 'sit down strikes.' Leaving on one side all the moral argurrients, the atrlkes scared the p&nte off the farmers and the middle class. There la some evidence that the motor manufac turers themselves warned Governor Murphy against atrong measures. After all, General Motors' Chevrolet sales would not have been Improved If machine guna had been turned on the alt-downers In - the Flint plant. But the Michigan middle class undoubtedly blamea Murphy for weak handling of the slt-downa. The second fector working against Murphy la even more interesting, the Derdocrata' Intra-party struggle did not end with the purge. The New Dealer, Murphy, la the victim of the hatred of the organization Demo crats, Just as the New Dealers tried to make organization Democrats their victims In the purge. The leader of the Michigan Demo cratic organization Is the state high way commissioner, Murray van Wag goner, a shrewd, genial, youngish man whom Jim Farley esteems highly. Through the highway de partment, Van Waggoner controls far more patronage than any other Mich igan official. And he has shown the greatest reluctance to put his men behind Murphy. He will act lr secret If he acts at all. but. If he finally decides to risk stabbing Murphy In the back, the wound 1 likely to prove mortal. Furthermore, Van Waggoner's atti tude only reflects the feellnga of the entire party organization In the state. Murphy haa made himself bit terly unpopular with the pap and patronage boys, partly by parading hla Intellectual New Deallsm, psrtly by an Irritating theatrical manner, and partly by Insisting on such aids to good government as a decent civil service. A few weeks ago, Murphy's pros pects were far worse. Factional atrlfe In the automobile workers' union threatened the unity of his lsbor support. The president's brother-in-law, . O. Hall Roosevelt, capriciously attempted a stop-Murphy movement, which might have got somewhere If the president hsdn't asserted him self, and Fitzgerald had not had time to exercise his talent for put ting hla foot In his mouth Today, the Issue Is still doubtful. If Murphy loses In the end, the New Dealers will be thoroughly punch-drunk. Klamath Breeze Causes Loss of Football Game KLAMATH FALLS, Oct. 38.
