Two Good Signs TTHERE have been at least two wind unce the election. One waa the announcement from the White House that for mer Governor Landon, had been appointed member of the American commission to South America. The other wag the announcement Attorney General Cum minga ii to resign. The first gesture of good will toward the Republican party, suggests at least that in the two remaining years of his admin, istration, President Roosevelt, will select outstanding citizens for public service abroad, regnrdless of the party label. In other wards as far as foreign relations are concerned he will seek the cooperation of the Republicans, from time to time, and not make it purely a partisan matter. The second occurence, being the first voluntary break in the original Roosevelt cabinet suggests that more will follow, and the President may secure what he has for so long a time needed,' new blood and a higher competence among his advisers. ALL in all President Roosevelt's cabinet has been an exceed ingly mediocre one. The two most capable members, from a personal and individual standpoint have been the two most inept and unpopular ones, Madam Perkins and Secretary Ickes. The others, including Attorney General Cummingn, have been of the time serving, pedestrian type, colorless 'and un distinguished. If intelligent and capable Robert H. Jackson should succeed Mr. Cummings, his elevation would be a long step forward, as far as character and ability are concerned. Undoubtedly a similar marked improvement would be noted if any of the other members should also have the out. It is always foolish to count your chickens before they are hatched. But if these two developments SHOULD prove to mark a definite change in direction and policy, as a result of the recent plebiscite, there would be added reason to believe, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, is the most skillful and enlightened political strategist, ever to occupy Yes but What an "If! WHEN General Hugh Johnson, talks about the World War, it nAturn and it results. he knows what he is talking nhnnt. For hn wu not onlv a war, but he has been a student competent economist to boot. Here is what he had to Bay war and its economic results : In thli the wu victor, hare all been vanqutahed. Also In In th twenty-jean' war on the battlefields of finance, trade and diplomacy the whole world has suffered In a state of seml paralyala and constant apprehension and danger. Oermany had been s great activator of the world'a commerce an Important consumer of raw materials, an Important producer of humanity's conveniences. Suddenly to carve her out was like the amputa tion of a man's leg. It waa so Important a member of the body of the world's commerce that Its loss upset the economlo International balance and It has not recovered yet. . . In the meantime the war burdens on Germany created Hitler ' and his Nazis as the only means of escape for an oppressed people and Hitler, on aU three fronts, economic, dlplomatlo and military, has outmaneuvered all his adversaries and now stands astride the world with a new threat of war. All those who bore heavy responsibilities during the World War wUI remember the ecstatic surcease when the wholesale slaughter, misery and menacing threat suddenly stopped twonty years ago todaj. It was an almost unbelievable relief. , It was like waking from a nightmare. Anything waa better than that even the present era of evil In international relations. So we ean still celebrate Armistice Day with thanksgiving though It la tempered with ao many regrets. There la a single cause of all this misfortune from ths so-called Armistice Itself to the present day selfishness and unfairness In International relations. The elimination of them. It that Is possible, Is ths sole key to peace and prosperity In the world. No truer words were ever written, particularly the last pnrngraph: "There Is a elngle cause of all this misfortune from the so called Armistice Itself to the present day. selfishness and tin falrnees In International relations." And the unfairness and selfishness that has made Germany the shell shocked psychopathic adopted by Germany, and if continued at the present rate, will ruin Germany, as surely as it destroyed the unity and prestige of the allied powers. "The elimination of them (International selfishness and unfairness) If that Is possible Is the sols key to peace and pros perity In ths world." As true as the Sermon on the Mount. But what an "if" brethren, what an "IF1" Hitler Wasn IT is always pleasant to have higher authority. When it comes to contemporary conditions in Europe, Alex ander Kerensky, one time premier of Russia, ir "prtainly a higher authority than the skipper of this column. "Comrade Kerensky" who gave a lecture in Portland last night declared uncompromisingly that Herr Hitler was not bluffing when he threatened to invade Oeohoslovakia. Hitler's policy, says Kerensky, was to do just that, and it whs a very clever one. England and France did not want war and were not prepared for it. Neither was Russia, with internal troubles and Japan growling on her far eastern borders. 1 it'er knew all this. Der Fuehrer's plan was to overwhelm Czechoslovakia, take over the entire country, but leave 'Kngland and France alone, not send a gun or a plane against them. Germany, it seems, has a remarkably efficient defense against airplane attack, and had the "allies" declared war and taken to the air, their losses in planes and personnel would have been tremendous. But neither desiring war nor being properly prepared for it, Kranre and England, definitely assured by Hitler Germany would not molest them, naturally decided in favor of peace. IK anyone is interested enough to look up the files of this paper in September last, they will find practically the seine ex planation, of the Munich surrender in this column, We admit it was largely a "jruoss" based upon the prob abilities but it is rnlher pleasing to hae a higher authority, ill such detail, confirm it. hopeful strawt to the political good sense to step down, and the White House. irenoral on active duty in that of it aince, and is a pretty on Armistice Day, about the case, it is today, has now been 't Bluffing one's views confirmed by a Personal Health Service By William Signed letters pertaining to personal health and hygiene, not to disease diagnosis or treatment, will be answered by Dr. Brady If stamped self addressed envelope Is enclosed.

THE VITAMIN Some lay m&gazlne had a story about ths tremendous growth of plants which may be Induced by digging in a lit tle vitamin B In the soil. Another news story tells of r e m a r liable cures of tlo dou loureux or trigs mlal facial neu ralgia, (than which few other pains are mors Intense) by large doses of vitamin B. One factor in the vi tamin B complex is designated aa ths anti-gray hair factor (referring to Its assumed effect In retarding graying of the hair of animals). Whether It has any effect of that kind In man I do not know. Occas ionally Aomeone who has been tak ing vitamin B writes to tell me that he or she believes It Is restoring the original color to gray hair. That's all I know, except that I oan assure anybody disposed to experiment with vitamin B or vitamin B complex that no matter how much one takes It can do no harm. I may go further and say that a few months of supple mentary feeding with vitamin B or vitamin B complex Is likely to bring distinct Improvement In the health of the average individual, since a large portion of the population prob ably suffers from moderate deficiency In the Intake of vitamin B. There Is a good deal yet to lam about the vitamin B complex. At present we know that the complex, that la. the vitamin B aa It grows in such foods aa wheat, rice, oats, various vegetables and fruits. In cludes a dozen or more entitles or factors, some of which have been Isolated, others having been assumed from scientific animal experiments. Vltnmln B-l Is chemically Identi fied as thiamin, and has been syn thesized or artificially produced. It la this factor which prevents or cures bprlberl, multiple neuritis, so-called Alcoholic neuritis or paralysis, poly neuritis and pathological vomiting of preornancy. Vitamin B-2 la chemically ; identified as riboflavin or vitamin O, and la sometimes called the antl dermatitis factor. Whether vitamin O Is ths main factor whose deficiency or lack la responsible for pellagra Is ss yet unsettled.

QUESTIONS AVI ANSWERS Eating flslt Does eating salt harden ths ar teries? M. 8. O. Answer No. If too much salt Is taken Iry or on food too much water Is retained In the tissues and ths blood. Such water-logged state and flabblahness means, among other things, a burden on a less efficient heart musle, and perhaps such a handicap to the circulation would favor premature senility and asso ciated hardening of the arteries. But a healthy person requires one-third of a teaspoon ful of salt daily In ad dition to ths salt naturally present In meat, milk, fish, ees.

The Income ct tl.f t Ameri can In was SUSO a Kr, or 133 a week Comment on the Days News By FRANK JBNKINS rX robbery and butchery of Jews In Germany, followed by heavy fines levied on them, has an ominous sound. It Is chapter out of tho Dark Ages. PR roughly 600 years. Rome ruled the world with a firm but rea sonably Just hsnd. During this pe riod, there was a relative measure of peaoe and security, and civilisation advanced rapidly. Intellectually, ths culture of Greece and Rome was equsl to ours of today, although mechanically it was Infe rior. Mechanical progress Is based upon ths use of power, and In the hey-day of Greece and Rome stesm end electricity had not yet been harnessed. But under the protection of Rome, men's minds wers reasonably free. THEN Rome passed the peak of her power and began to decline, be coming too weak to police the world. The Dark Ages followed. FOR approximately the past three centuries, England has ruled the world, and as In ths earlier case of Rome her rulershlp hse been firm but essentially enlightened and Just. Under the protection of England, there has been again a relative meas ure of pesce snd security throughout the world, snd ss before civilization hss advanced with giant strides. England, the world policeman, has kept the peace. Just as Rome, the world pollcemsn, kept It before snd the world has benefited. Just aa.lt benefited before. THERE are disturbing signs that England's power has passed ttfe peak, and Is on ths downward road. The moat disturbing of all these signs Is the Munich pact, in which England was undeniably bluffed by Hitler. This question stares us In the face: Is the power of England beginning to decline. Just as ths power of Rome declined? And. If so, is the world (exclusive, perhaps, of happy Amer ica) heading Into another Dark Ages period ? r' Isn't a pleasant thought, but there are disturbing parallels be tween the world of "today and the. world at the time when Rome's power began to decline. 4 On the Radio Chains STATIONS, where to Find Them on the Dial: KEX.

Yet the New Dealers still hope that they can make It such a factor in ths short space of the next two years. While they may be too optimistic, they have not lost their sense of reality. Within the Arcana, of the New Deal, careful stock-taking has gons on in these last few days. As sets and liabilities have been exam ined. Plana have been laid to In crease the assets and write off the liabilities. Some of ths plans are already under way. For example, the subterranean en mity between John L. Lewis snd the White House has long been a New Deal stumbling block. A public over ture has Just been made to Lewis, in the appointment of his daughter to the Lima conference delegation. Si multaneously, a leading New Dealer called on him, to remind him that he and the president were "working the same side of the street," and to suggest that it was In both their Interests to make friends. The ICew Dealers also hope to help Lewis con vince the public that the C. I. O. is not synonymous with communism. And they are determined to force some peace between the O. I, O. and the A. r. of L. While they are consolidating their forces on the labor front, they also hope to regain lost ground among the farmers. Their self-crltlctsm does not stop at farm and labor policies, however. They are snxlous (as always) for a reorganization of the cabinet, which will end the careers of several political chair-warmers, and trans form the official administration llsis up into a sort of preview of the New Desllzed Democratic party. They hope for a more aggressive attack on bad Democratic organizations, like Mayor Hague's, the alliance with which, contrary to report, was angrily disapproved by most New Dealers. Finally, they recognize the validity of certain attacks on the WPA and ths lsbor relations board. NLRB decisions must cease to have a partisan flavor. A stop must be put to politics in the WPA, for which the New Dealers blame sena torial confirmation of high officials. All in all. they have laid out quite a program.
