If on or more teeth are missing you cant majtint as well as you nhould, and Inevitably a greater burden will be passed on to the stomach and duodenum where psrt of the digestion of st-vrches and sugar, cereals, refutable!, bread stuffs, which should have oc eurred In the mouth during mastication, must be carried on by the pan creatlo Juice. How much .this may have to do with peptlo ul oer (gastric, duodenal ulcer) X don't know, but I believe It U a common factor. Moral: See your dentor early snd choose one who doea good work and com mands a commensurate fee. Cheap John dentistry Is a fool's Investment. Remember that digestion Begins In the mouth, and never gulp a hasty meal for a trivial reason. It would b beneficial for the health If there were more chew and less chatter at the dinner table. Some people harbor a notion that hot meals are better for health than cold meats. Nothing to It. That la, not unless you dislike cold food. Canned food fit to eat when the can la opened la Just as fit to eat next day If It has stood In the opened can, provided It Is kopt In a oold place ao It will not spoil. If canned food bears a notice or warn ing to the contrary It Is probably Inferior food, half spoiled before It was canned. Ioe cream with your lobster, or as a chaaer, or vice verM, Is per fectly wholesome and healthful If you like such a combination. Don't let any long-faced dyspeptic spoil your pleasure. No matter whether or how you cook an egg, only ao It Is served the way you like It, there Is Just so much nourishment or strength to be derived from It, and the way you like It la the most digestible way, you may be sure. Raw etw are not quite so completely diges tible aa cooked, for a small part of the raw albumen or white Is likely to pass thru the digestive tract unchanged. Meat well done Is quite aa nour ishing strengthening and digestible aa meat underdone or rare, btit It is all right to eat It raw or rare If you like, provided the meat does not contain trichina or tapeworm The Capital Parade By Joseph Alsop and Robert Kintner Released by The North American Newspaper Alliance, Inc. WASHINGTON, Sept. 35 Until recently, the slapstick strife between Secretary of War Harry H. Wood ring and Assistant Secretary Loulr, Johnson was only mildly amusing. In ordinary times these bureau cratic rivalries provide the political drama's welcome interludes of farce. But now. In a world In flames, it Is no longer Just funny that the two chief officials of the country's military establishment are not on speaking terms. Indeed, the situation Is down right disgraceful, for. wherever the fault may lie, the result Is that the whole war department la torn and confused by the Woodrlng Johnson row. Consequently, men close to the president are once more predicting that he will Inter vene to straighten matters out. At torney General Frank Murphy la understood to have forgotten hla former unwillingness to leave the Justice department, and his trans fer to war, together with solicitor general Robert H. Jackson's eleva tlon to the attorney generalship, would certainly be logical. There is also talk of replacing WoodTln with Governor Lloyd C. Stark of Missouri. The trouble la that these pre dictions ars perennially trotted out Hitherto, they have alwaya been proved wrong. became, however much the president may went to see the war department at peace tils desire hss never been so strong his Intense dislike of being tough with his suhorriltifttes. So far as la known, the most he hss done was to dnngts one or two diplo matic appointments under Wood ring's nose. He certainly csnuot hsve told either Woodring or John son that "this hsa got to stop." The two psrtles to iSe feud in the war department, Ihen'fore, con tinue their enmlly at white heat. Woodring la a smsll. shrewd, slight ly nervous, tnexhstistlbly smlnble Kansas politician, whose temporsry sppolntment became permanent by the curious Kooacveltlen Iai.hsos Fnire In such matters. Either be- rsusc he feels Insecure, or becsusr his amiability Is too Ingrslned, he baa never succeeded In exercising Brady, M.D. D FALLACIES larvae thoro cooking Is always the best safeguard against that. Next to limping along like a tramp with one or more teeth miss ing, perhsps the next moat common sin against good digestion and good heslth Is the practice of using a beverage to wash down unmastl cated morsels th typical Yankee qulcklunch or hurried breakfast where toast or roll or cake Is hustled down the hatch by a wave of hot coffee. Of course th bird In a tearing hurry can always take time out to ;top at the corner store for something to relieve his gas,' "heartburn. headache or whatnot, since he haa saved three or four minutes of the time he should have stayed with his breakfast. Better to postpone the meal or to skip It than to grab It off. qrESTIOVH ANSWERS Clrcmnrlftlon Would like your advice about cir cumcision of our two boys, one 3 years, the other two weeks old. (Mrs. R. B.) Answer Circumcision Is advisable only when there Is evident obstruc tion to urination or when retraction of foreskin for dally cleanliness Is not possible. Mmicrn Trent ment Thanks for recommending Dr. He treated my piles with entire sat isfaction. Little pain or discom fort followed the Injections, and I kept at my work every day, driving a truck and Juggling heavy kegs and barrels. It la a tremendous re lief, and I write so that others may know how efficiently and painlessly these troublesome conditions can ba treated by modern methods. (F. P.) Answer Thank you, air, for your courtesy. Probably the Injection treatment Is the method used In ninety per cent of all cases of In ternal piles today. The old-time op eration, In comparison, Is pretty crude treatment, still a few quaint practitioners still lay back their ears and Insist on the clamp and cautery horror or nothing. Iodine Plenee send your Iodine remedy for fatigue. How long does It take to be effective? (Miss C.M.B.) Answer I have no such remedy. For Instructions for taking Iodln Ration send stamped envelope bear ing your address. For booklet "The Seven Keys to Vlte" send twenty five cents coin. (Protected by John F. Dllle Co.) Ed. Note: Persons wishing to communicate with Dr. Brady should send letter direct to Dr. William Hrnrty, M. D., 2(i El Camlno, Beverly II 1 Ms, Calif. the slightest denartmentnl atlthnr. Ity over Johnson. Johnson would he rfirrifiiif n call to order In any case. A big. nrasn, paunchy, tnble - pounding American Legion politician of the Paul V MeNutt achool, he was placed In the wnr department an a concession to the Legion vote. Ills sponsor was Postmaster General James A. Parlev. and. when h tu.n appointed, or so he has always asserted, no was promised the suc cession to the secretary's 1rh. Pmm the first lnstnnt, he has dally an nounced that Woodrlng would be out and he would be secretary very soon, no has also fought tooth snd nnll to bring about this greatly desired result. In truth. Johnson hss sclert in most matters as though he were already aecretary of war. The presi dent, meanwhile, has given some color of likelihood to Johnson's pretensions by lettlns him manage such big special Jobs ss the con ferences On Wnr Dower niwria .nH the Industrial moblllzntlon program Tha kind of thin? that hfl. hun happening Is well exemplified by me oircumstnnces of the war re fources board'a appointment. Rn fr as can be learned. Johnson was simply given carte blanche In this vitally Important matter. Nono of the other members of the adminis tration, with whom the board will have to work, was even vna-nelv consulted. As for WoodrlnR, he Is reported to nave been left so far out In the cold that, lone ntler he had been nnmocl chairman of the bosrd, Edward R. Stctllnlus, Jr., had not even had a talk with the unhappy secretary. First Johnson acores off Woodring and then (more rarely) WoodrlnR scores off Johnson. Oern.lnnnlK- n, feud becomes unbelievably petty, as when there was a tempest In the wsr depsrtment teapot over the amount of office space assigned by Woodring to Johnson In the new munitions building headquarters And. whether the rend Is petty or violent. It distracts the wsr de psrtment at every turn The pro fessional army men are forced to take sides, the place Is a whisper ing gsllery of unplessant rumors snd whatever the Johnsonlfa fsvor the WoodrlUKllcs clsmn. snd vice versa. Johnson Is by now In sn ex tremely exposed position, having broken successively with his origin al sponsor. Farley, snd his Ister friends In the new ileal group Everyone In the edmlnlMr.it ion l. seriously concerned about Johnson's snd Woodrlng s gotngs-on. The csb Inet la actually ssld to hsve sgreed to let secretary of stste CoMell Hull he the president's sole welcomer on his return to fnce the war crisis. Just because Johnson wanted to add himself to the cabinet party Altogether. It la hlsh time for the president to choose between the two tcuflisia, or to chooso neither of them. Closing time (or Too Lets to Cii ify Ads u 1.30 p m. .lIl.jrie!vV By I'KA.NK JrAhlNS IT 10 pointed out (In th presi dent's message and elsewhere) that certain supplementary provisions of tha proposed neutrality program, such as prevention of accumulating war credits to belligerent nations (designed to keep us from going to war to protect our investment) can be put Into effect either by laws passed by congress or by presidential proclamation. LETS do It by LEGISLATION The executive proclamation re sembles the dictatorial decree too closely for comfort, snd two frequent use of It Is Inclined to accustom us to the forms of ONE-MAN GOV ERNMENT. One-man government (examples : Hitler, Stalin. Mussolini) Is the great est single menace facing the world today. ALONG that line, here Is a sig nificant and not too comfort ing note In the news: Britain, by agreement of lta major political par ties, Is ABANDONTNO ELECTIONS for the duration of the war. BEG INNING Monday, there will be bread cards again In Germany, as In the first world war. No card, no bread. Only children, pregnant and nurs ing mothers and the sick, after Mon day in Germany, will be allowed to drink unskimmed milk. Apparently there Isn't too much confidence In the abundance and availability of Russian food supplies. (Russia, oven In peace, has been using the card system for rationing of food supplies). 4 rtERE Is a lot of talk (especially among sapa of one sort and an other) of the superior efficiency of dictatorships. Great Russia's exper ience with production of foodstuffs doesn't seem to PROVE it. TODAY'S (Saturday's) dispatches tell lis that in the division of the swag Russia is to get approxi mately THREE-FIFTHS of Cftpttired Poland. Hitler does the fighting. Stalin takes over the bulk of the loot. Among Chicago's gangsters, little things like that nearly always LEAD TO TROUBLE. Don't ignore the possibility that the same rule will hold good among Europe's gangsters. Communications Wrong Side of the Road. To the Editor: Humans are oueer. are thev not? A ehort time aco the antinlu went. down with a loos of life which ap palled the people of this eountrv. yet we kill thousands every year by careless driving of automobiles. Whs- is tnisr I have made a studv of sutn acci dents for the past 15 years. It la a hobby of mine; and I have come to the conclusion that we are driving on the wrong side of the road. The Englishman knew what he was doing when he said the "left." After many experiments I have yet to be disproved. Only today I waa driving with a friend, and I no ticed that he kept his wheel either on rne yeuow line or Just over It. I mentioned driving on the left: he ridiculed It. I asked him to see how long he could drive on the ex treme right. He said he could drive all day, and pulled over. I took out my watch and said. "By Jove, ire 4 o'clock; we will have to step on It. and ho promMIv milled over to the yellow line. I asked him If he knew how lonR he had been driving on the right. He said no. Well. It waa Just a little under one minute. There were no cars on the rosd, so I said "Drive over on the extreme left." He did so and had no troubte In keeping there. He was astonished. This Is only one of hundreds of tests. W. B. KRAUSE. Medford, Ore.

Kelly (Continued from Psga One.) less of political affiliation, are In sisting that congress repeal the neu trality act, especially the mandatory embargo provisions, and enact the cash and carry proposals, which will permit dealers In the United States to sell all sorts of supplies and war material to Britain snd France. This group of publicists 1s striving to educate congress as well as the average citizen that the president's program is as safe as any and "will make business better." The real low-down Is that scarcely a handful of members have calmly thought out what could or may bap pen If the mandatory embargo (the president refers to It ss so-called neutrality) la repealed snd the gov ernment revert to International law. and then made their decision as to how they will vote. It Is a far more difficult problem than voting for farm, labor, re fief or national defense legislation. The president summoned the spe cial session when he had assurances that there were enough votes In con gress to vote for repeal. Since the members came to town, however. It is not ss safe a bet that there will be repeal as there was two weeks ago. LOBBYISTS of the industrial east are filling the hotels, seeking contacts with congressmen. Their argument: If the farmers and stock men of the west can ship wheat and meat to the belligerent nations, then Industries are entitled to sell war munitions, raw materials and fin ished product, and this means con gress should repeal the mandatory embargo. Result of this argument is that representatives from districts heavily Industrialized are for cash and carry. Not being industrial states, Oregon and Washington as shown by the congressional mall want neutrality as it now stands on the books. As of this date It appears that Wash ington's Schwellenbach is for repeal, while Washington's Bone and Ore gon'a McNary and Holman are not. House members will not go on record until after the senate has acted, which may require five or six weeks. If the representatives of the Pacific Northwest follow their past records all Washington members and one Oregon member will support the bill the administration ravors and two Oregon members will oppose repeal of the neutrality act.
