(UP) PHI. a 17 ycar old pet cat of a local apothecary died here of dropsy. The cat's utllltv durtnj lis long span of life had consisted of chasing way atray dogs By s dally balanced diet of Ice cream and heefsteak, the druggist had been a bit. to maintain Its weight for years at IB pounds. The Federal Surplus Commodities corporation has been authorised to purchase an additional 38.000.000 pounds of butter during tha fiscal year To The Defeated AS usual this paper is relieved the campaign is over though we will say this, it has been one of the cleanest and most uninteresting campaigns in recent history, But we venture to say, the relief of this periodical is nothing compared to the relief felt by the various and sundry candidates particularly those who are in for a beating, day after tomorrow. ' For while they don't KXOW they are going to be thrown out in the snow, they have a stronger hunch to that effect than they will acknowledge. And ' from the outset have found the going rough because, they felt there was little chance of getting anything out of the mess, in the final wind-up. So they have had to suffer the strain and stress and various and sundry indignities of this scramble for votes, with little or no prospect of any of the compensations. A 'D by strain we mean just that. We can think of few " vocations with the possible exception of cess-pool repairing or tin-cup peddling, more thoroughly distasteful to a civilized human being than running for office, shaking hands with every Tom, Dick and Harry, kissing the squalling infants (if any) saying "yes, yes" when you feel like saying, "no, no, you're a. liar 1", smiling when you feel like cursing, playing a part and a pretty ignoble, snivelling part, every waking hour with no more sincerity in it, than a side-show spieler's bally-hoo. And THEN to find, when the votes are counted, that' it was all for NOTHING, all the shoe leather and printing bills, all the hocos pocos make-believe, wasted, nothing to show for it but decreased respect for human nature and decreased respect for oneself I YES, to them, the also-rans, the defeated, goes this column's deepest sympathies and condolences. They cer tainly get the short end of it worse than the scrubs on a third rate football team. It's too bad, but apparently that's just LIFE, when one tackles the office seeking business. A World Safe ABOUT a week ago, just before Dorothy Thompson was to appear on the New York Herald-Tribune's "forum" broad cast, iMrs. Reid, of the Herald-Tribune hoped (over the phone) that Dorothy would find something to say that wasn't so depressingly pessimistic. Miss Thompson referred to but failed, as usual, to say anything very cheerful. In fact she intimated that under present circumstances optimism regarding the world's future, is in inverse proportion to brains. . We can't agree with Mrs. entirely, nor do we share her future, for we have an entirely subjective hunch that the future of civilization is not going to be as hopeless as most of the highbrows, including Mrs. Lewis, think it will be. However iu a general way columnist's cynicism regarding particularly in Europe, and we believing the entire world has At any rate we are going to remaining time today, and present to our readers her views on the state of this world which this column at the present writing shares. We admit there isn't in the picture, but it does strike true, and perhaps, If the people of the world as may be more disposed to arise on their hind legs and DO sume thing about itl We quote in part: We any, wistfully, "I hope, bafora I die, that 1 will once more lire In a world that Is not plainly a lunatic asylum." We cling desperately to a formula aa simple as the one that two and two make lour, saying, "For the sake of my sanity, I must Insist, at least to myself, that two and two do not make five." Par from hoping that the world In our times will be made safe for democracy, we confine even our prayers to the hope that It may be made tolerably safe for a modicum of human decency, that public action may In some remote way correspond to the private behavior of hallway civilised human beings. This la spropoa the news In Saturday morning's papers that the German government Is contributing to the stability, peace and progress of the world by starting to send several thousand Polish Jews Jews with Polish pafports back to Poland, equip ped with a railroad ticket and ten marks. Poland Itself, however, already has some three million Jews, and is beseeching the Evlan committee to undertake soma definite program for resettling n part of Its crowded and deeply Impoverished population In other part of the world. The same papers tell us that 3.000 former rltteens of tha Sudeten area of Chechoslovakia must Immediately be deported to find new existences elsewhere. Isn't It curious that poor, tight little Crechoelovakta could afford the means by which they might live, whereas this new great economic complex, so poweriul and so successful, can tolerate neither their views nor their work activities? The British legntlou in Praguo sits up half the night. It Is asld, stamping visas to permit refugees to enter Britain, which already has a huge unemployment problem. The United States government formally protested, nearly a month ago, the decision of the Italian government to drive 300 American citterns of Jewish blood out of Italy, where they are residents. So far the protest has been recognised after ten days' delay but nothing has been done. I doubt whether, since the pressure on Europe by Asia In the fourth and tilth centuries, there baa ever been such a vast migration of peoples ss we have seen since the war. Russians, Greeks, Armenians, Bulgarians, Assyrians, Germans. Austrian capitalists and proletarians, monarchists, republicans. Com munists, conservatives. Catholics, liberals. Christians and Jews above all, Jews, the world's perennial scapegoats turned loose upon a disorganized world, the further to disorganise It 4,000, 000 or 11,000 000 of them by now and all turned loose, heaven help us. In the name of some political formula or other which promises a "solution" a solution of the Jewish problem, of some national problem, of some "scientific" problem 1 Tills country might, for instance, decide to Join the move ment. How simple l There are In America, at preeent, some eight hundred thousand Italians and Germans the number Is almost equal who live and work here and have never even taken out first papers. Why not'put them on boats, with ftO cents In their pockets, and send them home, keeping here whatever they may have accumulated In investments or savings? Meanwhile the world will spend this year eighteen thousand million dollsri (or arm menu. Armaments that will not feed a mouth, or shelter a child, or put a coat on t mans back or a dress on a girl's, and be outmoded tomorrow. In I9SJ the world spent less than four billion The sum ha more than quadrupled, and still it la not enough! We mun impend more. Yea. we must, If the world is to go on being msdc safe for lunacy.

PASSING OP THE Gone Is the haircloth upholstered, whatnot adorned parlor where visit ing celebrities were auaterely en sconced beside the marble-top table with the loaded stereo scope under neath. showing Niagara Palls pretty badly choked with Ice: Gone, too, the drawing room, which according to ell . the best fiction, super seded the parlor Just as soon aa father's pay was raised above 11.50 a day. People whose education from the neck down haa been neglected re mind me of the parlor and drawing rocm when they try to assume or maintain good posture. They give all their attention to putting up a front and none to the back. In an earlier talk about posture X said the first rule for good posture Is kep your chin In, that la, Imagine you are wearing a high stiff collar and you must keep your chin Inside the collar. The second rule, X should say, is to stretch your back. Never mind your front. If your back Is straight and In good order the front will make the best possible appearance. The mistake usually made by per sons without education physical education Is the attempt to draw In or hold In or draw up or hold up the "diaphragm," as the Illiterate call It, or the "abdomen" aa the pru dish call It, meaning the belly. Hand In hand with that mistake goes the comic opera butler chest antic. If you want to have good posture. I re peat, never mind your chest or your belly, but keep your chin In and your back stretched. The spine In a vigorous, healthy, well developed person Is 8-shaped, a stretched out S, with a backward curve at the shoulder level, a forward curve at the loin. This gives the spine greater strength and resiliency than It would have If It were per fectly straight. It enables you to add, well, not a cubit perhaps but one-fourth to one-half Inch to your stature by taking thought and stretching your back. Man About Manhattan Bv GKOllUE TUCKER NEW YORK One may admire truth as a virtue but I am afraid It Imposes certain penalties at times on those who write columns for a living. So many stories which ap pear to be Ideal copy fall under the test of close scrutiny. I was thinking o f Washington Irving In the musical comedy "Knlckerboc ker Holiday." The ac tion opena with Irving musing over the m I a spent y e a r a of fttORGE TUClttt his youth and villlfylng himself for not having written any creditable books before his 30th birthday. There. In the dusky glow of the footlights, he determines to write an historic account of the first Dutch settlers In New Amsterdam; of Peter Stuyvesant. the congenial tyrant: of the beginning of that part of America which Is now New York. So he flourishes a goose quill, steel pens being unknown in those times, and begins to write. ... As he writes the action of hla book comes to life on the stage. . . . That Is the set-up. Now a musical comedy Is usually longer than a straight drama ... It Is a full evening's chore, and so from 8:30 to U Master Irving sits at a small desk on one side of the stage and writes, Ho is the busiest look ing writer you ever saw, and when I caught the play I was so Impressed by his diligence that I Imagined he must be really writing. In my Im agination I had him composing let tera to friends, catching up on his correspondence. Maybe he was writ ing a story, or even a play. l should have let well enough alone and recorded my theories, but In a weak moment I went to see - the young man and asked him how he found so much to write about. And the moment I spoke I knew that I had wrecked a column. He looked at me In amarement. Ha said, "Or cuorse I am not really writing. If I were to write a letter or anything serious I should become so absorbed In It that I should prob ably miss a cue. thereby leaving Walter Huston floundering around on his silver leg. and the Indians might get him. That wouldn't be so good, for he would be made to appear ridiculous In the eyes of the Dutch council, and without dignity there can be no real authority. And Without authority, old Peter Stuy vesant would lw his significance, and then Maxwell And won would have no play. Indeed, he might even have no Washington Irving, which would be very sad for me, for then I should be out of a Job." "No, I merely scribble. I draw innumerable but not very expert oval. 1 do hen-scratching. I make weird hieroglyphics that would baffle and confuse the most learned stu dents of human behavior.

FALSE FRONT In nearly every ease of poor pos ture the forward and backward curves of the spine are more or law exaggerated. Marked exageratlon of the backward curve between the shoulders Is called kyphosis, round back or round shoulders, and thla Is a characteristic posture of muscle weakness weakness primarily due to nutritional deficiency (not lack of sufficient food, but deficiency In sucb essentials as. calslum, phosphorus, vitamin D.

Questions and Answers Hod gk Ins Disease Can you suggest anything at all for a relative of mine who has what the doctors call Hodgkln'a dlseaa? (H.J.C.) Answer X-ray treatment Is the best remedy known at present. Ihe amount of X-ray treatment must be determined by the patient's regular physician In co-operation with the X-ray technician. Baby's Eyes Do Not Behave My baby, nearly three months old was a breech birth. Had swelling one cheek for a week after birth. Now that has disappeared but the pupil of the eye on that side at times varies In size, that Is, Is not the same as the pupil of the other eye. (Mrs. C. B. J.) Answer The baby's eyes will be have better after another month. Nor mally co-ordinate control of the eye sight and eye movements does not develop until the Infant la three months or older. Send a three-cent-stamped envelope bearing your ad dress and ask for your copy of the BBBBB Bigger Brady Better Baby Bsok. Many amateur mothers worry needlessly about crosseyes because the baby haa not yet learned how to make his eyes behave. (Copyright 1938, John P. Dllle Co.) Ed.

Calif. porter sitting at the feet of Hugh Fullerton, one of the greatest racon teurs the news writing craft ever developed. Hugh said one day, "Son, honesty Is a mighty, fine policy, but you should never let the truth spoil a good atory." Of course hla tongue wasn't actu ally In his cheek when he said this. It waa way out around his ear. But I never forgot It. He sure spoke words of wisdom that day. Communications Mr. Phlpps Favors Hess To the editor: While yours, in common with near ly all of the newspapera of the state, is supporting Sprague and opposing Hess for governor, you have been fair In allowing space to Hess advo cates. And presuming a continuance of your liberal policy. I am Mibmlt tlng thla short and meager contri bution. It la difficult for the average per son to understand how and why you have reached the decision that Sprague would make a good gover nor and Hess a bad one. "By their fruita ye know them." Hess was state senator for five sessions. nd as such made an excellent record, working skillfully all the time for the progress of the state and the betterment of the people as a whole. Hla record Is In the Voters' Psmph let and spesks for Itself. Even his worst enemies have never criticized It. His work must have been satis- j factory to the people of his own county Union county, an agricul tural section or Its voters would not have kept him in the senate for sev eral terms, rn the primary race for governor, his homo county gave him a two-to-one plurality; and the peo ple of the whole state must have appreciated his worth and ability, when they cast for him a substantial vote over Charlea H. Martin, who Is considered by many "the best gov ernor Oregon ever had." Mr. Sprague. on the other hand, has no official record whatever. What he would do In public office must be accepted on faith, based on his editorial and other utterances. Judg ing from these, he Is ft "rugged in dividualist" of the Mark Hanna type. The fealty of hla supporters rests on the fact that he is a very suc cessful newspaper publisher. This Is Indeed commendable; but doea the acquisition and successful manage ment of newspapers and printing plants prove ft man a capable gov ernor If so. William Randolph Hearst ought to be electee; governor of the world. WM. I PHIPPS. Med ford, November 4. i:tlniuUhen nutU CANTON. Mass.

Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS HERE Is ft statement about tans that la vouched for by the Chamber of Commerce of the United Stat: "The cost of government fed eral, state and local mounted from 8 ,618.000 .000 In 1033 to 16,900.000.000 In 1037, or from 70.00 per capita to 9130.75 per capita." AND here la a rather startling statement regarding the cost of the federal government alone: "At the present rate of public spending. It would take the work ing population of a city of 160, 000 inhabitants about 150 years to support the federal govern ment alone for one year." ND here la another one worth reading: "If every dollar of Income of persons receiving more than 95000 a year were taken in taxes, the sum would pay the cost of our numerous governments for only about six months." QHUCKS," you may say upon O reading this, "I ahould worry. 1 don't pay any taxes. Why should I bother my head about what gov ernment costs?" The National Consumers Tax com mission has Just completed an in teresting study aa a result of whtch it finds that In New York city the average low Income family gets 1473.36 a year and out of this In come It paya in HIDDEN TAXES the sum of 102.19. Hidden taxes are taxes that are In cluded In the cost of your living, j They HAVE to be Included there, for 1 taxes are a part of the cost of doing i business. Any business man knows that. I THE average low Income family In New York, according to this study, pays THIRTEEN PER CENT of Its in come In hidden taxes. Taxes, you see, get around to everybody In the course of time. AS LONG as government goes on spending more than It should taxes will be higher than they ought to be. And aa long aa taxes are higher than they ought to be PRICES will be higher than they ought to be. When prices are higher than they ought to be, your wage dollar buys less than It ought to buy. But as long as heavy spending continues high taxes will HAVE TO CONTINUE, for governments can spend only what they take from their people in taxes. Government borrowing only defers the evil day, for what Is borrowed haa to be paid back. ' 4 TO YOU from Washington by Ethelyn Evans PRESS CONFERENCE NOTES: Just back from a lecture trip, Mrs. Roosevelt la planning to leave Im mediately by air to practically "cover" the United States on a visit to three of her children in Seattle, California and Texas her Itinerary depending upon weather conditions but surely returning to Hyde Park to vote Tuesday, November 8. Revealing the secret of traveling light one bag, one hat, one brief case the First Lady described a basic black, noncrushable velvet, floor length evening gown (lovely as It which, by snapping on either a blue or white brocaded gulmp affair and train, becomes a couple of other dresses for various formal occasions, J or when worn with a long sleeved . Jacket, it is the perfect dinner dress. Also, a perfectly plain street dress ' which can be changed by the addl j tlon of an apron effect in any de- j sired color, plus a matching coat, the lining of which Is "zipped" In ', all around and can be worn for a dressier, lighter-weight coat. What a scheme! However, we pass on the' warning that unless perfectly design ! ed and made, these combinations might look decidedly pstched, de- : tached, etc. It was also explained that the nu merous press comments anent a "new hair-do" for Mrs. Roosevelt had no foundation other than the well known scheme of prolonging the life of a finger-wave by not combing out i the curls the first day. ONE of our male columnists sur reptitiously moved over Into the chit-chat field and Interestingly de. scribed the rlncs worn by Mrs. Roose velt; so we observed and found that .he does wear rings on the third epd Uttte finger, of both hands Other than the conventional wedding ring And solitaire, the rings had old- j fashioned settings, seemed a part of j Mrs. Roosevelt, and we must agree with Ihe "newspaper boy friend'' that on her the unusual number and style ef wearing looked well. , The apparent schism in the First Family in re clothes closets explain ed: Mrs. Roosevelt atlll Inslsta that each bed-room low cost housing and all should have a closet with ' t!oor in It. but It seems the chief executive purposely omitted plans t lor closet. In his nearly completed dream house because he "adore," old fashioned wardrobes. Attending the conference was Bar ones, de la Orange, a young, amart, and attractive guest at the White House with her husband, Baron de U Orange, of the Chamber of Dep uties of France, who was much In terested In the wardrobe subject and suggested It might be permtssablc to present a French wardrobe to the president some time. ...

It Is Interesting to hear Mr. Young tell of the early day of the Industry when his father, Benjamin Young, fished the mouth of the Columbia near Astoria, and his mother workud out the present formula for canning salmon In ordinary fruit Jara In her own kitchen. A small corporation was then formed, cans, were Intro duced, and hla father built up at least a half million dollar business In a chain of canneries.
