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

torney General Frank Murphy la

former unwillingness to leave the
Justice department, and his trans
fer to war, together with solicitor
general Robert H. Jackson's eleva

would certainly be logical. There is
also talk of replacing WoodTln
with Governor Lloyd C. Stark of
Missouri.

qrESTIOVH ANSWERS

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.

Plenee send your Iodine remedy

to be effective? (Miss C.M.B.)

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

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

Johnson Is by now In sn ex

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

be put Into effect either by laws
passed by congress or by presidential

LETS do It by LEGISLATION
The executive proclamation re

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

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).

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.

I mentioned driving on the left: he
ridiculed It. I asked him to see
how long he could drive on the ex

all day, and pulled over.
I took out my watch and said.
"By Jove, ire 4 o'clock; we will have

I asked him If he knew how lonR

Wall St. Report
NEW YORK, Sept. 25 (AP) A
little profit taking stemmed a feeble
rally in today's stock market and
although leading Issues Jumped
fractions to a point, at their best,
gains were shaved at the close.
Steels, motors, rails and special
ties were most favored throughout
the day, but some of them slipped
toward the end.
Activity was never marked, al
though the day'a business was fair.
Transfers approximated 1,200.000
shares.
Some brokers expressed the opin
ion the war ''boom' had tapered
off and the market, which rushed
upward at the beginning of the
conflict abroad, had about caught
up with the quickened movement
of domestle Industry.
Industrial news, however, was
considered favorable, with all the
indices showing sizable increases.
The American Iron A Steel Insti
tute estimated steel output this
week would be at 83.8 per cent of
capacity compared with 79.3 the
preceding week. 83 0 a month ago
and 48.7 In the 1938 comparative.

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.
