Now comes Harry L. Hopkins and deposes as follows: "They (tha people) don't like the Idea that anybody geta a relief Job because be haa political Inlluence. They don't like the Idea of anybody getting hla pay ralaed, because he haa political Influence. They don't like the Idea he gete fired be cauae of that. They are quite right." . Tliey are. And have been for a long, long time! That was why they resented it, when Harry h. Hopkins, the dictator supreme of all federal relief, went to the state of Iowa, and told the people how they should vote, or how he would voto were he in their shoes. True, the people with the secret ballot were not obliged to follow his instructions and a majority didn't. But undoubtedly thousands did, because they were afraid, if Harry's man didn't get the job, they might not get relief. AND THE l'HOl'IiE DIDN'T LIKE THAT! They felt, not only that politics should have nothing to do with relief; but that high officials dispensing relief should have nothing to do with POLITICS, should scrupulously avoid even the APPEARANCE of playing politics. PRIOR to the election on November 8th, Mr. Hopkins, ap peared supremely indifferent to this opinion. While con tinuing to deny there was any politics in relief, he also con tinued to take a part in politics, even going so far as to base his predictions of the results upon the extent of the relief rolls, in each particular state. And now what a transformation has come over the spirit of his dreams! He not only recognizes public opinion in this direction but he wants WPA and all other federal relief put "lock, stock and barrel" under civil service. To which all right thinking people, likewise, murmur fervent "amen." PUT ALL RELIEF EMPLOYEES UNDER CIVIL SER VICE. TAKE ALL PARTISAN This righteous and refreshing declaration only furnishes added evidence that the "voice had a most salutary effect upon the Roosevelt administration, and made a lasting contribution to the cause of good govern ment in this country. Mrs. Honeyman fs Defeat MRS, HONEYMAN left yesterday for Washington, wnere she will pack up her belongings, and return to her home in Portland, and to private life.

And sho is repaid for that practical politician in the state, But Nan Wood Honeyman comes trom a iigimng, u ous and idealistic family, she literally would rather be right, than be elected, to ANYTHING. And the Post was entirely correct when it remarked she was the only candidate in this neek! of tlio woods who felt that way about it. SO whatt Well merely this, we get precisely the sort of government we deserve, the sort of government "we the people" vote for. So long as we vote against of courage, of high principle and We will .have a government, are conspicuous by their absence, where people of the reverse type, are predominant, that is people who will throw over board any principles or convictions they may have, the moment they threaten to lose them votes.

KEBP YOUR HAIR IN At this writing one factor of the vitamin B complex la tentatively named "anti-gray hair factor" at least as regards the influence upon animals. Incidentally . It Is a good Idea to use vita min B complex, containing all of the entities or factors, whenever vitamin B la used at all. for maintain ing good nutrition or for overcoming deficiencies o f health or nutri tion due to In sufficient Intake of vitamins, ' the complex la supplied In vitamin B tablets (each containing 150 international units of B or vitamin B complex syrup, each teaspoon ful containing 350 unite of B. If the nails and perhaps the skin present evidences of faulty nutrition. It Is well to take not only vitamin B complex (B-l, B3 or O and all the dozen or more other factors) but also sunshine vitamin D. aa these are found In Irradiated yeast tablets, each tablet containing the vitamin B com plex of non-fermentable or non-fermenting wast and 500 units of sun shine vitamin D. Dandruff and Falling Hair Is evi dence of nutritional deficiency, in my opinion. The supplementary feed In described Is Indicated In most cases, but special local, treatment of the scalp Is desirable, too. In the experience of thousands of my read era, and In my own experience In practice, the best remedy for dand ruff and falling hair Is this salve: Precipitated sulphur, one dram ( tea-poonf ul ) ; Salicylic acid. 30 grains (one scruple) (1-3 teaspoon fun; ointment of Rose Water, ONE OUNCE. Properly made, this aalve Is so smooth that no particle can be felt when It Is rubbed between the finger and thumb. Every evening go over a different quarter of the scalp, parting tha hair here and there and carefully rubbing a little of the salve into the scalp (not the hair) with the Wps of the fingers. Once a week Instead of an application of the salve take a sham poo. Continue thla for a regular six weeks course. Such a course twice or In some cases three times In the year will control dandruff and falling hair. It la tpdious but It Is efficient. Man About Manhattan Bv OKORUE TUCKER NEW YORK For the life of me I can not understand why Sinclair Lewis wants to be an actor. He Is rich. He Is fam ous. He is a No bel prlBe winner. The libraries of the world are Ut tered with his novels, most of which are excel lent, one of which i comes close to greatness. But now he wants to put on paint and stand behind footlights hardly be more than mediocre. The woods are full of actors these days, good actors, capable actors. But most of them were born actors and couldn't be anything else If they tried. Sinclair liewls now wants to move Into thla world. He thinks he knows a lot about the theater, about acting, but he doesn't. He will find this out In due time. This acting bug got to him about five years ago. and he haa been making eyrs at the theater ever since. Perhaps that Is why his last novel 'The Prodigal Parents." was disap pointing and a complete about-face from anything he had previously done. As far as the stage goes Lewis' only play until a year or so ago was Jayhawker" which he co-authored and In which Fred Stone starred. Then he wrote "It Can't Hnppen Hpre," and assisted In Its dramatisa tion. The PWA federal theater put It on and It received fair notices. Tht summer Mr. Lewis turned actor with retlsh and appeared in two Summer theater presentations of "It Can't Happen Here." This was in New England and the critics were inclined to be lenient. They are sometimes over-tolerant In the sum mer theaters. They become assassins when you get on Broadway. With the laurels of his red barn experiences behind him Mr. Lewis is back in New York, and now comes the announcement that he Is turn- tig actor for fair and will star In a new play written by himself, tt will prohahly be tn rehearsals soon and with him will be Pay Wray. and also, Diana Barrymore. John Ram-more 's 17 year - old daughter, who will be making a debut. The new lewu plsr Is called "Angels ts Twentv-two." and tt has to do with a dvtor who fall in love with one of hla patients. The tall, angular Mr. lewis, who likes to be called Red. explains that the play la "a love story which la a pentagon rather than a triangle." It takes place In a fatr-slwd American city whose Reosrnphy la uncertain. No doubt Sinclair Lewis haa been greatly Influenced by the tucveae hla novels have had aa dramattM- ttons.

AND DANDER DOWN If you are to indifferent to go to much trouble to correct the trouble, try dally application to the scalp of a solution of ten grains of resorcln and ten grains of salicylic acid In plain alcohol or your favorite toilet water. ThU may be sprayed forcibly upon the scalp from an atomizer tip almost touching the scalp. Some times resorcln stains white, gray or blonde hair reddish or yellowish, but the stain disappears after the resorcln Is discontinued. The soiu tion may leave the scalp too dry. If so, apply a few -drops of the Skin Oil dally, as already described. qiKSTIONR AND ANSWERS Inhaling When you inhale cigarette smoke do you take It Into your stomach or lunga or both?

The Capital Parade (Continued from Page One j As Clark's obvious play la to court the president, the story of hla over ture to the White Hnm hn. th. i. or of reason. His message Is reported to nave been the simple question, "Isn't there inv WV u- ran am, tn. gether" While that question remains unnnswereo, ne is unnxeiy to attack the White House from the senate floor. Of course, the president and the men around him have long used the name "Bennett Clark" to euro up everything they don't want in the democracy's 1940 standard-bearer. Unleaa the president haa an aston ishing change of heart. Clark will eventually realise that there Is no way he can "get together" with the White House, short of surrender of hla ambitions and most of his inde pendence. Then open, violent rebel lion probably will terminate his amiability. But that Is in the future Representative Rayburn. on the other hand, has no need to make peace with the White House. Aa houp leader, he has gone down the Una for the president, grudgingly sometimes, but with great regularity. Ha may be classed aa a conservative Democrat, however, because his pri vate oplntona and friendships make him an outstanding member of the so-called "Texa group" which Vice President Oarner leads. And he is understood to have come to the White House partly aa the Texans' Ambassador. The Texana In congress are fait speclmena of the type now expected 'to be moat troublesome to the presi dent. The smith's one-party syatem makes their congressional aeata rea sonably secure. But their fat com mittee chairmanships, and the com fortable government Joba of their supporters and relative, depend on kieplng a Democrat In the White House. Once a Republican cornea In. the Texans' supporter will go hungn. and they will have to use their own satarlea to feed their coustna, aunt on-in-law and other relatives Their prime Interest is to keep a Democrat any old Democrat In the White House. Now that the Republicans have be- j come a real threat. Intra-party squab bling may defeat the Democrat'c ' nominee In '40. Tha Texans' Im pulse to assert their individualities la repressed by their Impulse to save their skins. No wonder Sam Rayburo la said to have assured tha President that hla congressional cohort would be mora united thla year than last. And whether or no tha reports of the Raybura and Clark overtures are correct, one thing must be remem bered. Tha orthodox Democrats have much to lose In a row with the President, for they need hla help two years from now. The president, on the other hand, haa enjoyed the con ventional term of office. If he haa the gumption, he can walk out on hla party. When a man la badly needed and can walk out at will, ha retains the whip hand. Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS KEMAL Ataturk was a hard worker, a hard player, a hard drinker and a heavy amoker. He liked to alt up ell night working, or listening to music or playing poker. (Fancy a poker-playlng Turk), t He smoked aa many aa 160 cig arettes a day, lighting one from the stub of another. Chain-smoking is the modern term for It. He died at the age of 58. WHEN you, burn a candle at both ends, It doesn't last so long. But It MAKES MORE LIGHT while tt lasts. KEMAL Ataturk shed quite a lot of light in Turkey. He took the veils off Turkish wo men. (Which may or may not be to hla credit; this writer can't aay, not having seen many Turkish women). He modernized his country and rais ed Its atandard of living. And, al though a dictator, he refrained from wars or conquest. Taking It all in all, that Isn't a bad record. UP IN Marion county, In the Wil lamette valley, they had two local measures on the ballet one merely proposing to build a court house and the other propcaing to levy a tax to pay for It. The thrifty voters heavily approved the proposal to build the csurt house, but SNOWED UNDER the tax to pay for It, FUNNY, isn't it? Still, maybe there was method in their seeming madness. They've been hearing a lot in recent years about vatlng ourselves rich. There's been a vast amount of talk about creating prosperity by the simple process of passing a law. Demagogues have as sured us solemnly that we can lift ourselves by our bootstraps. Perhaps the oanny votera up there merely decided to do a little exper imenting on their own account, say ing to themselves: "If a court house rises of Itself and PAYS FOR ITSELF, without any tax. It will be true that the more abun dant life la here. If not, somebody has been mistaken.' Y E I EL PASO, Tex. (UP) The most destructive ordnance and bombs of modem warfare will be tried out tn a vast "no mans land" In western Texas and eastern New Mexico If recommends tlona submitted to Washington are approved. Plans for the enlargement of Fort Bliss by 60,0.000 acres have been aub- mltted to the war department. It waa revealed in i-ecent cnrerences here between Major-Gen. Ben Lear and Rep. R. E. Thomason. (D., Tex.), ranking member of the house com mitter on military affairs. The enlarged Fort Bliss would be j till red by the army aa a great training center and a target range for artillery and bombing. The Organ and Hueco mountains would form natural "backstops" for the target ranges and bombing act ivltle and t..e almost negligible pop ulation of the locality would elim inate the civilian safety hazard, ad vocates of the plan said. They pointed out that the climate waa stilt able for year-around train ing, and that transportation, water facilities and variety of terrain would make the ground ideal for all types of defense practice. The recommendations called for acquisition of 300.000 acres of land In Texas and 400.000 acrea in New Mexico, Both principal tract ad Jot n the present Port Bliss reservation. Port Bliss now la a cavalry post. "With the growing Importance of anti-aircraft defense, bombing, field artillery and small arms firing in modern warfare, auch a vast train ing area somewhere In the country haa become a requisite," Genera Lear said. Military expert said that only one other area in the nation the Mo Jave dwrt offered the aparslty of population and variety of terrain necessary. But the Intense heat of the area made It unsuitable for mili tary training. "In view of the talk of prepared ness by President Roosevelt and tha war department.
