Another advantage the Pacific coast hag over this section that is in radio programs. At least after trying all day and night on the home radio, gave up anything west of the Missis sippi as a bad job. In other words on the western coast one can get ALL the U. S. radio programs, while here only those between the Mississippi and the Atlantic. Speaking of radio, Eddie Cantor is appearing (in person) at a local movie house tomorrow night, and according to reports the house is sold out. An old friend with an extra ticket invited us but even if night engagements were on the schedule we would decline. We know Eddie knew it, but we have just about in person, as Robert Taylor we years ago. John McCutchcon is drawing Chicago Tribune, and what a delight to see his work again!; Me is a rare combination, true artist, sound philosopher and genuine humorist. Incidentally he is doing some effective work for the cause of Btrict neutrality, in fact we shall not be greatly surprised if neutrality wins in the end. We hope not. But the present status of the case does remind us strongly of the League of Nations, which started out with a bang, mid then steadily declined until at the final showdown, the little group of isolationist iri'econcilables won. a a a a Add nostalgic interlude : How short the days are getting ! Across the street, where the motor car headlights are dashing in a steady stream the Gordon house is dark. In fact the G's don't live there anymore. No one lives there. What a change over the gay nineties when the Gordon house, particularly in September, after the lake season and just before college started, was ablaze with light, with young people going in and out, in practically a steady stream. And we often observed it from this same window, standing out like a Christmas tree. Dolly G. was the belle of the town, had more beaux than a hound dog fleas. They came from all points of Chicago, and yet Dolly never became engaged, but played one against the other, until, as often happens, there was a new orop of debutantes, and Dolly became a sort of College Widow, finally resignedly marrying one of the home town lads, while all Main Street mourned. Dolly's grandfather lived on was the town's leading tycoon, being president of the largest bank, and always driving past about 5 p. m, with the Swedish coachman on the box and the pair of snappy, glistening bays stepping out in the approved post-bellum style. Grand Pap was Scotch, a tiny little man with a short white beard, who looked like the President of the United States at that time, Benjamin Harrison, and was proud of it. To make the likeness all tile more striking, he always wore a silk hat on 'hundays and holidays, and was inclined to bow majestically to pedestrians whether he knew them or not. school and yet m some directions he wasn t so old or out-ot-date, in the middle eighties he wedded his third wifel No particular point to this oxcept as previously indicated : "The old grey mnre ain't what she used to be." Roekford still has beautiful debutantes no doubt and there may he a tycoon or two hereabouts, but "them good old days has gone forever", the former don't parade about in pretty, carefree bunches and the latter don't all live on one street. This is probably nothing more than the sentimental lament, one generation always has over the advent of a new and different one. But in the belief of the present writer, that change of the past century has been more striking and complete than any change preceding it, in fact the present probably marks nn epoch as portent ious and far-reaching, socially and industrially, as the one ushered in by the machine age. And such radical changes in retrospect have their notes of sadness. Not that the New World will be less worth while than the Old, probably FOR THE MAJORITY OF PEOPLE it will be more desirable, more comfortable, more satisfying, it somewhat less exciting and glamorous. But it is always so hard for the one or two percent, who were beneficiaries of the system that is PASSING, to SEE it! R. W. R. At The National Capitol with John W. Kelly (Continued from Page One.)

A far-fetched picture? Perhaps, but it Is one seriously considered by the best-known statesmen In congre and the White House.

Without criticism In Washington, the Paclflo northwest house members could return to their districts and remain there for weeks, but they know that constituents would criti cise them for not being at their post of duty and keeping America out of war.

Export markets con sume the better grndeti of pears and apples of the Pacific northwest (47 per cent of the winter pears of 1938 were exported; Hood River district exports BO to 80 per cent of Its ap ples; Yakima Wens tehee 35 per cent) since the war export freight rates to Europe have Increased 33 per cent; to the Mediterranean 00 per cent; to Sweden 80 per cent War risk in surance has Jumped 9 per cent on Brit inn boats: 6 per cent on neu trals, while exchange has Increased costs 10 per cent.

HOW MANY GLASSE Question frequently Hiked U whether It li necessary that every one should drink at least eight glasses of watr a day In order to keep well. For example one cor respondent says: "I have tried 1' faithfully several times forcing down lve or six glasses of water a day, although I was not at all thirsty, and wa ter seemed re pugnant. Pelt no better for It, and It made not particle of difference with bowel function which has always been rather sluggish. Ordinarily I have no thirst, except after eating sweets or taking strenuous exercise. But If you say It Is necessary I'll try to keep It up." Unless I were farther off my nut man x seem (to myself) at present. and had to mind what my keeper told me, I would drink no water at all unless I were thirsty, at any time. it mattes no difference whether one takes water straight or as a con stltuent of any and all foods for there Is more or less water In prac tically everything on the menu. Of course more water In, say, melon or tomato or potato or oysters or cabbage contains more water than wheat, cheese, meat, egg or figs or raisins. Not only the character of the diet but also the weather, season, cli mate, relative humidity of the air. and the physical activity of the in dividual all have an Influence on the body's need of water. Not only eat ing sweets but eating any carbo hydrate sugar or starch) to excess Increases the demand for water. Like wise eating much salt increases the demand for water. Habitual consumption of too much carbohydrate or too much salt not only increases thirst or the need for water but tends to retain more water In blood and tissues, keep the body waterlogged, so to speak, dull, slug gish, easily tired, low in health or vite. A person exposed to extreme heat, natural or artificial, should make It a rule to take a good nip of com mon sait, pernaps ten grains, with each drink of water or other bever age. This will be more refreshing than pure water. It will tend to pre vent heat cramps or collapse from heat prostration, by retaining more water In the tissues, preventing de hydration which occurs from exces sive sweating under such circum stances, in very dry air one may not realize that an enormous quan The Capital Parade By Joseph Alsop and Robert Kintner Released by The North American Newspaper Alliance, Inc. WASHINGTON, Sept. 39. A good many puzzling incidents of the last fortnight are explained by the fact that the President has received well authenticated reports of a consider able number of submarines quietly operating In the region of the Car ibbean. Possibly the reports should be class ed with the alarmist rumors com monly current In wartime. The im portant point Is that, pending final proof, the reports are given serious credit In the highest quarters. The President himself hss already gone out tof his way to announce the sighting of two Isolated sea-raiders, one off Boston, which would pre sumably belong to the mysterious Caribbean fleet. The fleet, which Is believed to number at least six and perhaps seven vessels, Is of course, thought to be German. The Implications of the reports, if they are true, are more than striking. In the first place. In order to main tain a fleet of half a dozen subma rines 3.000 miles from home, the German government must either have a supply ship In the Caribbean or a private harbor somewhere along the Caribbean whores. Without some such source of fuel and ammunition, no submarine could maintain Itself for long. In the second place, the existence of the fleet. If It does exist, consti tutes much the most dangerous1 men ace to American neutrality yet dis closed. With a base on this side of the Atlantic, the submarine will be able to lie off American ports, pick ing off English and French merchsnt men ss they set their course for the other side. The indignation that would be aroiised by such a situa tion can be well Imagined. Natural ly, therefore, the neutrality patrols of the navy and coast guard are using all avallrtble resources, bc;h of nl. 1 pa and planes, to discover the true state of affairs. It Is vitally Important to locate the submarines and their source of supply, or to discover that they are not there. The puzzling Incidents explained by belief tn the possibility of a sub marine fleet in the Caribbean are thre in number.

The rule that everyone should drink so many glasses of water day is a silly one, probably con ceived by some glib charlatan who fancied himself as a natural-born health specialist. Most of the notions about diet which the unsophisticated layman cherishes appear to be of similar origin. There is Just one rule that a sensible person need fol low and that Is simple: Drink when you are thirsty. Don't worry about getting enough water you'll get enough as long as you get enough to eat. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Ambulant Treatment of Hernia Thank you for suggesting Dr. . as a physician skilled In injection treatment of herna. I have taken the treatments and am highly pleased with the results. He Is not only skilled but most considerate In his terms. (F. T. L.) Answer I am glad to name a phy sician when I know of one skilled In such treatment. But I have no Information on the fees or expenses of treatment. I have a monograph Hernia send stamped envelope bearing your address and ask for It. Tuberculosis What Is the treatment for Incipient pulmonary tuberculosis? (L. M.) Answer Lung tuberculosis in the early or beginning stage, before the patient's health is apparently affect ed seriously; of course long before any tubercle bacilli are given off in tne sputum, successful treatment Implies first a diagnosis and In this stage the diagnosis is a matter of the physician's Judgment or opinion physical examinations, X-rays, tu berculin tests, study of symptoms being only confirmative of the med ical ' opinion. Positive diagnosis is essential to Insure cooperation of patient's family and compliance of the patient with the physician's in structions. Main essentials of cure: 1. Constant advice and care of physician. 3. Rest. 3. Diet well balanced In fat, pro tein and carbohydrate content and also vitamins and minerals. 4. Open air life. 5. Freedom from worry and other harmful emotions. (Protected by John F. Dllle Co.) Ed. Note: Persons wishing to communicate with Dr. Brady should send letter direct to Dr. William Brady, M. D 265 El Cam I no. Beverly Hills, Calif. manner of the first slight hints the President loves to drop Into the pub lic mind when he has something reaiiy startling up his sleeve. Second la the extraordinary em phasls. at the Pan-American confer ence In Panama, on the neutrallza tlon of coastal waters In this heml sphere. The President and the state I department are the real forces be- 1 hind the seemingly spontaneous con- , ference demand for a general dec-' laratlon. warning belligerents away from a sort of hemispheric trade zone extending well out to sea. If the conference adopts one' of the pro posed resolutions embodying this warning, grounds will be provided for dealing with the Caribbean situ ation. It Is particularly notable that most of the resolutions would close all North, Central and South Amer. loan habors to belligerents' war ves sels1. And third Is the astonishing haste with which the Pan-American con ference was convened. It Is diffi cult enough, at the best of times, to obtain results from these confer ences, which usually produce solemn final acts warmly Indorsing a late spring and an early fall and con demning the chinch bug or the man slaying shark. Results are almost Impossible when this country dra goons the Latin -American nations In to an early meeting, and Imposes on them a ready-prepared agenda. Moreover, in this Instance, the vast majority of the problems concerning neutrality have not reached the ma ture stage In which they may be profitably discussed. Yet. when the La tin-American dip lomats bitterly protested the undue hustling to the state department, they were simply told that "the President Is determined the confer ence shall open on September 33." Clearly there was some reason behind the President's determination, to have the declaration as to the neutrality of coastal waters ready In ample time Is the only such reason discov erable. The good sense of Insuring that this hemisphere shall be a peaceful trade area Is underlined by explora tions of the South American trade problem being conducted by the de partment of commerce under the able undersecretary, Edward Noble. Some framework of economic cooper ation may well be set up. In spite of the haste, at Panama. That such cooperation Is possible on the sound basis of an exchange of goods le now taken as proved at the commerce department. All sorts of commodities have been found which we need and can get in South America. For example, our hardwood supplies axe running very low. while Colombia, Brazil and Vene cuela have huge, uncut forests for our use. It Is possible that before long we shall be taking from them 50.000.000 to 160.000.000 worth of railroad ties alone, while they buy from us equivalent amounts of manu factured products. A policy of firm ness against outside interference ayid cautious generosity toward the South Americans mav well enrich our econ omy with a new and vastly prosper ous trade. .'.InXJie 1 Days .. . .'- --1" News By IK ASK JtNKI.SH WATCH Moscow today (Thursday) not the western front. At Moscow an effort la under way to line up a new balance of power that will lean so heavily AGAINST the British and the French as to cause them to ask themselves seri ously whether they can AFFORD to go on with the war. 1 IT may be a gigantic bluff, and at any moment the two gangsters (Hitler and Stalin) may fall out over the proposed division of the loot. But the effort Is being mads. If a deal can be patched up that gives promise of holding water, look for another peace offer on an "as Is" basis. . rxONT look, however, for Its 1m- mediate acceptance. This Hltler- Stalln combination Is aimed - at DE STRUCTION OF THE BRITISH EM PIRE and the picking of lta bones. If the British empire goes, the French empire will go with it. The British and the French know that. They know that unless the odds brought against them by the diplomats now scheming together are HOPELESSLY OVERWHELMING they must go on fighting. THIS censored quarrel over whether or not German aircraft were suc cessful In damaging British capital! ships In the engagement apparently fought a day or so ago Is Interesting out of all proportion to the actual damage that may or may not have been Inflicted. One of the big questions as yet unanswered Is whether aircraft can DOMINATE BATTLESHIPS. The Brit ish have an Immensely powerful navy, upon which they rely for de fense of their empire. The Germans have an Insignificant navy, and a menacing air force. The British are betting their stack on their navy, and the Germans are betting their stack on their airships. F the battleship (and the cruiser) can stand up and WIN against any attack that can be launched from the air. Hitler's chances aren't any too good, and he will probably be starved out In the end. But if the airship should MASTER THE BATTLESHIP, a Shift In world power Isn't too much to be expected. That Is why there Is so much secrecy and so many conflicting claims In connection with this naval affair. Communications Write To Congressmen To the Editor: It seems wice to emphasize the Importance of the citizens writing to the five Oregon congressmen now in Washington, D. C. The outcome of the deliberations on the neutrality Issue Is of very grave Importance. Deliberations that are so far reaching in effect should not be hurried; a decision that Is so vital to the general welfare of our country should be studied from every angle. Senator Nye has made a special appeal over a nation-wide broadcast to" the citizenry everywhere, urging each and all to express their wishes at this critical time. Our congressmen know that It Is the people who make the supreme sacrifice if the nation Is permitted to be drawn into the European holo caust, and so they seek to be sus tained by the opinions snd desires of all the people a ; this time. I have already written, not only to our own congressmen but to many others, urging them to hold fast to the "mandatory embargo" which the state department itseV Introduced Into the senate and which all who deliberated upon Its worth approved, Including the president who now has reversed hts opinion. It was approved in 1935 when the Judgment of all had not been in flamed by propaganda. It was ap proved by all as the most satisfactory code of national behavior and pro cedure to the end that our country be kept free from the age-old alli ances, feuds, intrigues and wars of Europe. I believe It is wise to abide by a decision that we made when we were Impartial In our outlook and there fore more cool and deliberate in our Judgment. I do not urge the consid eration of any temporary monetary gain to sway our decision because the ultimate result of all war is international bankruptcy. War de stroys the finest of the young gener ation and leaves the less fit to mourn the loss and to exist if they can under an extreme and Inevitable tax burden. ARIEL BURTON POMEROY. Central Point.
