If they didn't they wouldn't be senators. But even so, talking for three or four weeks straight on one subject, seems to be the limit of something or other. Probably the senate can stand it, but we can't. We have had 72 hours of it, but today took a vacation and visited the zoo. If there is a larger or better zoo in the world we haven't seen it. This goes both for surroundings and exhibits. Talk about snakes! Never have we seen such a collection of reptiles of all sizes, colors and description, half of them we had never seen or even heard of before. And some of them very beautiful, really, gorgeous colors, rare grace. However we were glad a thick pane of glass separated ns. It was just before feeding time for the pythons and one of them eyed us with what seemed to be more than a speculative interest. whether ns a probable keeper with food or a prospective meal, we couldn't determine exa.ctly. The zoo Is huge and in a natural state, trees and brooks and wooded hills and dales. The bird cage is nearly as large as the Medford Natatorium. Has a tremendous elm tree, entirely inside the wire netting. It was feeding time there. We were fascinated by a small, rather scraggly bird, which grabbed a fish as large as itself and tried without success to swallow it. It would get set for the engorging process when some other bird noticing its diffi culties would try to grab the tidbit and all progress that had been made would be lost. This went on for at least ten minutes. Finally the fool bird got wise one of the trees, where the pelicans at least couldn t follow. When we left, at least 15 minutes later, the fish was only half way down. Apparently some birds eat like snakes, come to think of it, the bird developed from a snake didn't itt or was it tother way round! It was a relief to find the Zoo restaurant where one could sit down and take the weight off the feet. The second world series game was being broadcast, and as we entered the Yankees proceeded to make three runs with two down and the score 0 to 0. We have always thought we would never miss a world series if we ever got within striking distance, but we wouldn't travel a mile to see the Yankees walk all over the opposition, as it has been doing in recent years. Competition is not only the life of trade but the life of SPORT. As we see it the unbeatable Yanks are killing the sport of baseball. .... We never cease to marvel at the Washington taxis! One can travel anywhere in the city proper for 20 cents, while from our hotel to the zoo, at least four miles, the charge was only forty. The rate is based not on mileage but on zones, there are four zones, 20, 40, 60 and 80 cents. Have never tackled the 80-cent zone, it must reach to the battle of Bull Run at least. And here is the business moral, the taxi drivers of Wash ington are the most prosperous in the country, we have the word of our favorite driver with the gold-rimmed specs, to support the statement. It s the old story of low price and mass production, small individual profit but big turnover. As "(Joggles explained it, spend most of their time at the curb, here we no sooner drop one fare than we get another. And it's the low price that does it. With a ten-cent street car fare, and the cars full of niggers everybody rides in taxis." After being in the Solid South one can understand why Washington, D. C, is regarded as the colored man's Paradise. There are about 250,000 of them here, and there are no restric tions or discriminations, they are granted every privilege the white man has, go everywhere, do everything, from the poorest tenement districts up to and including the White House. And there is little if any of that colored deference one meets below the Mason and Dixon line, in fact we should say colored manners as a whole in this man's town, are rathor poor. The colored people no doubt realize that in the capital of a country that is based upon equality, equality CAN'T, as it is in the South, be denied. We sat in the press gallery of the Senate yesterday and listened to the arms embargo debate for four and one-half solid hours! Senator Connally, slick, sleek, unctuous table thumper from Texas represented the administration; Senator Vandenberg of Michigan, who grows his hair long on one side so he can cover his bald spot, represented the Republican opposition. Oh yes we know, politics has been adjourned for the dura tion of the war, there is no partisanship whatever in this arms embargo fight ! That's the window dressing. But no one can wander around the halls of congress, and listen to the show in the main arena and fail to observe, there is not only partisanship there is bitter partisanship. All the Republicans are not opposing the President's program, and all the Democrats are not favoring it, but that condition has existed to a greater or less extent for at least, two years. One had only to see the Democrats swarm about Connally in vociferous congratulation after his speech; and the Republicans do likewise with Vandenberg, and realize that while party lines on this issue have been broken, there is plenty of active partisanship left over, thank von, PLENTY ! of it! Both speeches were too Ion:.', but Vandenbere had all the better of it. In the first place he didu't wander all over the District of Columbia and into t lie lowlands of Pennsylvania, he wrote his speech, ami while ns a newspaperman he should have liberally blue-pencilled the repetitious portions, the man can't be blamed probably, seeing it's a couple of decades since he engaged in a profession which has some regard for unity, mass and coherence. As for the latter, the Texas me nana pninted sola pillow. lie scorned any manuscript, and ns a result completely cont indicted himself several times, and forgot entirely what he was talking about several other times. But nothing fazed the old hoy, he was resourceful if he wasn't convincing. When he lost his chain of thought he would make another pass at Senator Tydings, who sat next to him, and launch into what we suspect is one of his favorite cam paign speeches, an impassioned indictment of the horrors of war, and the ineffable beauties of pence. (We don't know how Tydings stands on this arms embargo but he wasn't a very great help to his colleague ns far as the general impression on the gallery was concerned. For the more violent Texas Tom became, the more difficulty Tydings had to keep his face straight, in fact several times he laughed outright. and as he closed his eyes at one time and Connally waved his arms wildly in the air, nearly got a crack in the jaw ns a consequence. . . . Connally, incidentally, showed up one very serious weakness in the cash and enrry argument. Tliev can't be, or at lenst to date they HAVKN'T been entirely frank and outright. The Texas senator, for example, was interrupted by Senator Sheridan Downey of California (the ham and eggs proponent) with this question: "Would you support this measure with the same force and earnestness if it aided Ormnnyf Now the answer to that of course would' lie "NO." But Senator Connally, instead of answering truthfully, took refuge in the rather absurd contention that such :t question was an insult, and proceeded to castigate the "Freshman" senator for asking it, and then before lie could reply quickly changed the subject. Well that doesn't help th. cujuH! knys it, that Uruum; ttud the tuUlitariau vuw f rs i to the situation and flew into "In New York the taxi drivers jolon took the brass ring and ! .ny. Tbo truth is am! represent a serious threat to democracy, and if victorious, would make the world a pretty difficult place for any democracy to live in. In other words, this country isn't neutral as far as the present conflict is concerned, and there is no point in trying to pretend otherwise. The entire strength of public opinion be hind this cash and carry proposal is due to the fact, that the American people practically without exception want Hitler beaten, and want to do everything, short of war, to aid in that direction. But Senator Connally, like Senator Pittman of Nevada be fore him, tried to keep up the silly pretense that those favorini' the cash and carry proposal are not only neutral, but MOR1' NEl'TRAL than the opponents of the measure even though neither they nor anyone else believe it. (Of course an argiimen: can be made for a purely TECHNICAL) neutrality but as Borah pointed out the circumstances destroy it.) 0 . . And this sort of thing weakens any argument, impairs any cause. In the opinion of this column those who believe in the cash-and-carry proposal, do so because they believe in this country giving material aid to the democracies' in their effort to defeat Hitler. We fail to see what the proponents gain, by refusing to acknowledge such a patent fact. In fact it places them in the rather ridiculous position of refusing to acknow ledge a condition, without which they wouldn't be able to get any MATERIAL support in this country, whatever 1 R.W.R.

DIETARY ACESSORIE8 Scientific authorities do not be lieve that the eating of gelatin Increases endurance or diminishes fatigue In a normal person. gelatin Is an In complete protein. Incapable of maintaining life or of supporting growth when it Is the aole pro tein In the diet. The protein of cheese, milk, eggs or lean meat, on the other hand, Is complete, that Is, contains all of the compon ent amino - acids necessary to sustain life and growth If used as the sole protein In the diet. Taken as a supplement or as an additional Item In the diet contain ing other protein material, gelatin la good food and may be Included advantageously In the diet of many Invalids or well persons, for Instance In the diet of the diabetic patient. Use of gelatin for making desserts Is rather a healthful practice, not only because the dessert Itself Is wholesome but because It makes a good substitute for various powerful sugar concoctions which are so much superfluous carbohydrate for most sedentary adults. And boy. you had better get out of my way which I get wind of the fact that a fresh mix of chocolate orange gelatin is ready In the refrigerator It beats the factory product out of the pic ture altogether. PhyslcUns are not as yet agreed on the value of gelatin In the diet of the patient with peptic ulcer. No one objects to it, but many doubt that it has definite remedial value. So the addition of gelatin to the diet remains a question for tne ulcer patient to try for himself and see. It has been proposed that gelatin should be added to the milk for Infant feeding. I'm pretty dumb about some of the collegiate stuff they're working Into medicine nowa days and I don't quite get it. but they do Insist that gelatin "iowers the curd tension" and so so what. I ask. and the answer ts. If you've been worried much about curd ten sion being so blamed high, here's your chance to lower it without do ing any great harm to the baby so far as we know at present. If "curd tension" means tough curds, perhaps the simplest way to deal with the trouble U by giving the baby some oatmeal water or barley water mixed with his milk. But don't mind me. As I say. I'm Just a plodding old door-to-door practitioner and what I don't know about curd tension helps round out this little book. Condiment.

Calif. EN FAITH IN HITLER LONDON. Oct. 7. (API Britons looked with suspicion on Adolf Hit lers "outstretched hsnd" today as the government analyzed the fuehrer's "last chnnce" propossls to end the war. It was expected the war cabinet would complete its promised "careful examination" of Hitler's retchstsg speech In time to permit Prime Min ister Chamberlain to deliver his re ply before the house of commons Mondsy. The government wis silent, mean while on a news dispatch from Ber lin suggesting that Hitler would scree to an armistice were It proposed by President Roosevelt or the head of any other important neutral power. The London morning papers car ried the dispatch in their late edi tions with comment. The British press displayed promi nently, however, stories rrportln ; that Hitler's relchstag address was rcniirded In the United States as of- 1 ferine little hope for cessation of hostilities. I The same view was taken edlto- j rlsl'.y by most British newspapers ! Only among the minority communist and pacifist ti roups was there a sym pathetic response to the fuehrer V proposa's. m MU nuuut wsuii ads, j The Capital Parade By Joseph Alsop and Robert Kintner Released by The North American Newspaper Alliance, Ine. WASHINGTON, Oct. 7. As the war will probably last at least long enough to reduce the world economy to smoking ruins. It seems tragically Ironical that high government of ficials should actually be worrying about what to do in case of peace. Their solemn ponderlngs suggest the labors of the worker ants, which obstinately add to the ant hill's food stores while Its Innermost chambers crumble under the entomologist's spade. Nevertheless, the talk goes on, starting always with the assumption that an early peace would Initiate a sharp business recession tn this country. The reasons are plain enough, and agreed on by all groups. Inventories are swollen. Large fac tory orders have been given In ex pectation of a wartime boom. Even the housewives have been laying In un needed stocks, anticipating wartime price rises. If peace should come, the whole country would suf fer from something like the hor ribly named "peace scares' which already afflict the stock market. What makes the talk of possible peace steps all the more horribly reminiscent of the ants Is that each group within the government has reacted In the same old way, as though by a fore-ordalned auto matism. The new dealers, for example, have their usual panacea lavish govern ment spending on a broad front, For them, spending has long occu pied the position of castor oil In the old-fashioned matriarch's medi cine chest. They take It for granted that spending will cure any of the nation's Ills, but, as . they know spending is unpalatable to congress, they are always trying new ways of making It go down pleasantly, Just as the matriarch was always offering her nasty dose in grape Juice, or lemon Juice, or with salt. or In some other clever way. This time, the new deal group's choice Is made easy. The war abroad has dramatized the need for national defense. Their program of peacetime spending calls for a great rearma ment effortt A two-ocean navy, to build which new shipyards would also have to be built, Is the first item on their list. Large expenditures for anti aircraft defense: an Important In crease In the air force; improve ment of the railroads and the na tional power system; an Increase in the army's enlisted personnal all these are project under conider atlon. As the urge to spend is still strong, these projects may also be pushed as war measures If peace measures do not prove necessary. Then, at the treasury. Secretary Henry Morgenthau, Jr., who has a passion for general consultation rather than a panacea, has called his aides to conference. So serious does he consider the question of what to do If peace comes that he has actually commissioned two dif ferent groups to give their best thought to it. One Is composed of the rather conservative economic ad visers. Wlnfleld W. Rlefler. Jacob Vlner. and Walter W. Stewart, whom he recently brought down to help in the war emergency. The other, headed by the treasury's able econo mist, Harry D. White, Includes most of the permanent officials. Each group Is expected to check the other's findings. Neither group has reported as yet. but their work is leading up to recommendations of three broad, alternative policies. The first, for which only one or two treasury voices are likely to speak. Is governmental spending of a more productive sort than the new dealers' armament program. The second Is the application of temporary economic palliatives, such as several months of increased WPA work, special efforts on the gov ernment lending front, and the like. And the third is a do-nothing policy. The do-nothing policy is based on the theory that. If peace comes, the expected recession will be short and followed by a return of the pros perous trend which was manifesting itself in the month or so before the war. Except among the smsll spendlng fsctlon. this theory Is widely held at the treasury. Thus, very strangely, the same 1 voices reiterate the same sugges- tions and make the same arguments which have been heard in Washing ton almost since the new deal be gan. If peace should come soon ) which would vastly surprise the experts in the foreign field), then the talk and the worrying may have a useful result. At any rate, it probably serves to keep "the econo mists' minds off what will happen If the war Is greatly prolonged. FRANCEALLSET FOR LONG FIGHT PARIS. Oct. 7 (API France set tled herself today for a long war, her announced determination to "carry on to victory" apparently un shaken by Adolf Hitler's "last" offer to call off hosttlttlfs.

As these words are written (Friday evening) no official comment has come from Britain or Prance, but It is hard to see how the British and French answer can be anything but "nor Even Mussolini cant see enough meat on the Hitler proposal's bones to warrant htm In tsktng the Initia tive for a peace conference. HITLER says in effect that Ger many now has what she wants In Poland and Intimates that she doesn't want much else. The Impres sion sought to be created la that, having what she wants, aha la pre pared to be good. But he la on record as having said that he didn't want Austria. Then he went ahead and took It. He la on record as having said that he didn't want Czecho-Slovakia. He went ahead and took It. When he says now that having TAKEN POLAND he la ready to talk real peace, he Isn't in a very good position to have his words accepted at face value. IF Hitler la as smart as his actual achievements to date Indicate, he probably had little hope that Britain and France would accept the peace offer he outlined to his relchstag. His speech sounds very much aa If It were being delivered to the Ger man people and NOT to his ene mies. He wants to convince the German people that he has been right all 810119, and moderate as well, but that Britain and France (Britain In particular) are wicked people who wont listen to reason. Therefore nothing Is left but to fight until Britain and Franca are destroyed as completely as Poland has been destroyed. People fight bet ter when they feel they have been done dirt, and Hitler's purpose ap pears- to be to convince the German people that they have been done dirt. (There Is also an odd note of apol ogy for his deal with Stalin, which leads one to suspect that the Rus sian deal may not have been too popular among the Germans.) A NYWAT, the speech has been made. It didn't seem to strike any fire in London or Paris. Even Mussolini can't work up any enthu siasm for the proposals contained In it. We shall now ses what wc shall see.
