He speaks English of course, with a surprisingly mild Oxford accent incidentally. And he speaks directly, frankly, simply, appealing essentially to the intelligence rather than the emo tions, which in spite of our occasional Huey Longs IS the American way. It was, therefore, a delight to listen to him over the radio Friday night, as he addressed the closing session of the National Association of Manufacturers, at the Waldorf Astoria. It was particularly refreshing after the bombastic barking and bawling of the leather-hinged President-elect Howard Coonlcy, Jr., who following the accepted Liberty League technique, approved of all the popular Roosevelt reforms in one breath, and (inferen tially), peeled the hide off the President with the other. Britains former prime minister was characteristically dis creet in what he said, but ho did make it QUITE clear that on the issue between demveracy and the totalitarian state, England not only stands for democracy, but is ready to FIGHT for it. The most moving and, in a restrained way, eloquent feature of his address in fact was where he stated England did not ask for aid, did not expect this country or any other to pull any chestnuts out of the fircj but wag acutely conscious, of the dangers that confront her and the necessity of again defending her ideals. AS Eden spoke those words this column's reaction was that in such case,- England fighting for her life and in the defense of democracy, we couldn't somehow imagine, this country standing idly by and watching the conflict, impas sionately. It would be like watching a member of one's own family fighting for his or her life and doing nothing. Yet we detest war as both brutal and insane, and theoreti cally yuld never sanction a war, in foreign lands, AGAIN, no matter what the provocation. So what! Well someone else will have to find a satisfactory answer to that one. We can't. Support the Local Symphony TTIE .Southern Oregon Symphony orchestra Medi'ord's junior symphony "grown up" will present its initial con cert in the Mctlford high school auditorium this Wednesday evening, December 14th. Those who attend this debut will be agreeably surprised by the progress that is being made by this group of earnest young sters now augmented by older, more seasoned musicians play ing together for the 1,0 VK of music rather than for financial reward, for proceeds of this concert will be devoted exclusively to advancing the symphony movement in this locality. It should not he necessary to urge Medford and Rogue River valley people to avail themselves of this musical treat; this community has an unquestioned appetite for GOOD music and a record of encouraging all cultural movements. Talented Marein Van Dyke, a a young violinist of exceptional soloist; a fact that will please who have followed her splendid Maestro Winder, distinguished Symphony orchestra.

The progress they have made DOES represent, plenty of perspiration--ninny hours of tiring practice, good hard work. The MORAL support, that auditorium Wednesday evening, will have an important bear ing on the future success of this group. Financial support, too, is important, Symphony arrangements are costly; some instru ments must be purchased; pianos incidental expenses met.

KVKHVOAY RKFINF.n DIET Preceding articles have explained why It Is essential that our modern diet, consisting largely of refined foods, must be suppl o me n te d with adequate dally rations of vitamin B com plex In order to maintain any thing like opti mal health. In recent years a so-called "smooth diet" has gained wide popularity In cases of peptic (gastric or duod enal) ulcer, Intestinal trouble, de ranged colon or, as many victims mis takenly call It, mucous colitis which term is wrong because, first, mucus Is not a cause of trouble, and, second, there is generally, no inflammation of the colon present. To regard colon derangement, due to nutritional deficiency, aa "mucous colitis" is perhaps not so serious a mistake, for the patient's welfare, as Is the popular practice of adopting a smooth diet and, because the near Invalid or actual Invalid experiences less difficulty while following the diet, adhering to It for long periods. This 111 advised or unadvised practice Is accountable for progressive decline In health and vitality In many such cases. The grave fault with the smooth diet, aa a stendy diet, Is precisely the fault with the everyday refined diet, namely, that It falls to supply the essential vitamins. If the everyday refined diet on which a large propor tion of the population subsists, is poor in vitamins, how much worse in that respect is the diet restricted j to certain "nmooth" foods, food from I which various natural components j have been carefully removed. Several ounces of pure wheat germ, or a few ounces of dried brewers yenst. or one or two ounces, of rice pollshlngA, or a combination of all three, If cons .ned every day, would fairly supplement the everyday re fined diet in the eKsentlal vitamin B complex. These are the richest known nat iral sources of vitamin B-l, B-3 Man About Manhattan B CIKOIIGE TUCKER" NEW YORK Al Jolnotl, plodding through the snow of an early De cember morning, bumped Into Billy House, the over sized comedian whose poundage hovers around the 300 mark.

Main Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS CACTUS JACK GARNER, vice president, and a hard-headed shrewd, patriotic Texas Democrat, Is 70 now, and will be 72 in 1940. That may be old for assumption of the heavy burden of the presidency al though Gamer It reputed to be a tough old bird, quite able to throw a deer onto his back and carry It Into camp. But If he Is nominated , by his party In 1940, this writer Is going to find It hard not to vote for him. THIS writer is politically so be nighted aa to believe it doesnt make much difference whether the Republicans or the Democrats win In 1040. But It does make a great deal of difference WHAT KIND of Re publicans or Democrats are elected two years hence. v It makes a difference because the nation's financial stability will de pend upon the man chosen as presi dent and members of congress In the next presidential campaign. These men will decide whether we shall go on spending ourselves Into bankruptcy or shall set our feet on the hard road that leads back to na tional solvency. CACTUS JACK GARNER, tough . hird-bltten, realistic old Texan that he Is, has made It pretty plain that he believes you can't go on In definitely spend Ini? more than you take In Without GOING BROKE. THERE Is much talk of "liberalism" la the Republican party a lot of It undoubtedly Inspired by the keen desire of Republican politicians to get back on the publio payroll. Before throwing In our lot with this new program, let's find out definitely what Is MEANT by liberal ism. IF LIBERALISM means equality be fore the law, so that EVERYBODY, big or little, rich or poor, may have as nearly equal opportunities as Is humanly possible to make a living, this writer Is for It. But If It means merely being lib eral with other people's money and going on with a career of reckless spending, regardless of where the money Is to come from, which MUST mean national ruin In the end, this writer, for one, Is AGAINST It. The Capital Parade (Continued from rage One ) Unless the circumstantial evidence points to a wrong conclusion, the Incident must be taken as a sample of the practical statesmanship by which the supreme , court moderates seek to strengthen the position of the Judiciary. To tho lay eye, it Is not so very different from the tcat ful dilutions of conservative doc trines by which the moderates seek to re-shape constitutional interpret ation to the needs of a hugger-mugger era. 4 Noted Dead j THOMAS VILLE, Oa., Dec. 10.

(AP) The disclosure an air transport which made a forced landing with the loss of five lives off Point Reyes last week had flown directly over San Francisco three hours earlier was made by the transport pilot, Capt. Charles B. Stead. In testimony at an official hearing. Pilot Stead said the passage of the air liner over the city was unknown to him and his co-ptlot, Lloyd Jones, because the big United Air Lines ship had lost Its radio directional beam and was flying between two layers of thick clouds at the time. The Civil Aeronautics Authority Board of Inquiry concluded its hear ing here yesterday. Chairman Thomas Hardin stated the board would draft a preliminary report here and return with It to Washington, D. C. official findings will be released within a few weeks. The plane, southbound from Med ford, Ore., to Oakland, became lost in the northern California skies, early In the morning of November 29. Testimony of four residents of Crescent City, Calif., and the affi davits of five other persons they saw or heard a large plane over Crescent City early on the morning of the disaster was made a part of the of ficial record. Crescent City is south west of Medford. The transport plane route between Medford and Oakland lies straight southward through the S,acrnmento valley. Stead and other witnesses denied the ship heard over Crescent City could have been his plane. Members of the inquiry board indicated un officially they also were doubtful the plane was Stead's ship.
