C, Oct. 11. Went over to the War De partment to get some news. Might as well go over to the Mint to get (some money, it just CAN'T be done! But falling bak on that convenient expedient of the local press, we can assert, that we have it on the highest authority that and to-wit: Medford 'g hoped-for super airport, has a good chance of mnterializinsj at the January session of the congress, unless there should be peace in Europe before that time. This is based upon the assumption that the Vinson Bill, or something like it, which was defeated at the last session of congress, will not be defeated at the next. In other words that sueh a measure will pass. In other words if a large, comprehensive and elaborate pro gram of airport extension, throughout the country, is endorsed by congress to the tune of $100,000,000, or more, Medford will get its share. For the Medford airport, IS of strategic import ance. If such a program does not go through there isn't a chance, as far as the war department is concerned. For while its attitude toward the Medf'vd project might be termed "sympathetic", it just hasn't got the cash, and can't get it. Even in this event, however, there would be s chance of the endorsement by the proper federal aviation authority of a super airport at Medford, if a WPA project toward that end were launched. This, presumably, would take a cash contribution or its equivalent from the City of Medford. SO, the picture as to Medford 's super airport hasn't changed materially in the last few months. The most favorable slant we could get out of the situation here amounts to this (1) There is no doubt high officials of the army air force do want a larger and better airport at Medford. (2) There is also no doubt that Senator Holman, as a mem ber of the Appropriation and Military Affairs committee, rc gnrds this project as his "baby", and if it can he done HE is in a position to do it. On the same anonymous authority it may be stated, that blue-prints for the new army radio administration building at the Medford airport have been approved, bids will soon be asked, and the building should be completed next April or March. It will be a two-story structure, with quarters for five operatives, to replace the present building which is inadequate. Reverting to the war situation and the neutrality debate for a moment. When we returned from the opening session, between Borah and IMttman we expressed the opinion that 'lie affair had been over press-agented, that it would not take its place in history with such real epoch-making events as the Uncoln-Douglas and Webster-Haynes engagements. The real issue wasn 't sufficiently profound ; the feeling sufficiently intense. Well, whatever doubt may have existed as to the truth of that statement THEN, there is none now. And with the war situation in Europe, changing from day to day, its importance, is becoming less and less. Indeed "SHAM battle" appears more and more to be the word for the engagement. Not only is it believed here in Washington that ex-President Hoover when ho said England and France couldn't be beaten, was entirely right; but sentiment is increasing daily, that unless there is a sudden and unexpected change in the European situa tion, Hitler like Sheridan Downey, is going to knock himself out. All they think Ocr Fuehrer needs is more rope. For it'H the local view he can't get an armistice now, nor enn lie quit, he has to act decisively in some direction, or lie is lost. Well ho can't go any further to the East for Russia stands in his way. He can't go to the South for the same reason. So he ciui only go to the West, and that menus destruction and defeat. In other words, while the allies failed to surround Germany, Hitler did it himself, when he hooked up with his nnti-commin-lern enemy, Klnlin. As a result American aid to the KiirIhiuI and France has become almost an academic question. The allies have Der Keichsfuehrer hy the tail, on a downhill pull, WITHOUT it. ' We hasten to add this isn't the official war department view. The war department, as far as the press is concerned, has no view, about the war or anything else. This is the view, how ever, your correspondent feels confident, official Washington holds at the present moment. It may change tomorrow of course. Rut all things considered, it doesn't look like it. We have always wanted to see a professional football game but never hnd the opportunity until Sunday, when the- Wash ington Redskins defeated the Brooklvn Dodgers, 41-13, here at Griffith Park. We spooled to see good football. Hut we weren't prepared for the brand of foothall we did see, the most perfect exhibi tion of how the GAME SHOULD BK IMjAYED, we liave ever witnessed, or ever expect to. The score doesn't indicate much of a contest, but until the last few minutes it was, for the Dodgers while not much on straight fontbnll hnd in this Ace Parker, ex-All American Duke quarterback, the most phenomenal forward-passer we have ever fcen or dreamed of. (We still can't figure out why his team didn't score half a dozen touchdowns instead of only two. At that his passes gained 252 yards, and there was no 'time when the Dodgers had the ball, anywhere within the 40-yard stripe, that tho little Dodger star the lightest man on the field, wasn't a threat. And when he didn't throw the ball he ran with it, and when he wasn't a standout on the offense, he was saving his team from disgrace on the DEFENSE.) Perhaps Perfcssor Pickem has heard of the man before, but we never have. In a game in which practically all con testants were All-American this comparatively frail chap stood head and shoulders above all the rest, .

Oct. 14. In the first smart or their fury at the Husao German pact, tho British and French government seriously considered publishing White papers, to expose the extraordinary duplicity of the Russians' dealing with them. Had they not muffled their im pulse, two remarkable facts would have been made immediately appar ent. In the whole course of their negotiations with the British tind French, th Russians speclficolly and Indignantly denied that they were going to do what they In the end did. And, from the start the Rus sians attempted to extract from the British and French the heavy price which Germany has now paid for their support. A slice of Poland and the Baltic etatea was what the Rus sians wanted, and they cared little whether they got it by blackmailing the demecraelea or Joining hands with the Narls. On May 4.

Throughout the spring, although urged on by the French and anxious for Russian help in an anti-aggressor front, the British had been re luctant to propose a specific minus! aid treaty with Russia. After Llt vinoff "a fell, however. It became in creasingly clear that Hitler would not stop at war. and. In the last days of May. the British agreed to take the plunge.

I must take no acid foods. Pleose tell me which foods are acid and which are alkaline. (M.S.D.) Answer Don't be silly, man. No real doctor would advise such a diet. Only charlatans, mail-order quacks, near-doctors and queer-doctors exploit popular credulity con cerning "acid" and "alkaline" foods. You are doing yourself an injustice monkeying along like that. First, why not loosen up and squander the price of a medical examination by a real doctor, to find out what Is the mat ter? That would be at least a step in the right direction. . Latin Is a doctor compelled by law to write a prescription in Latin? If a patient asks to have the prescription written In English would the doctor be allowed to do so? (T. B.) Answer There la no law about it. The doctor may write a prescription in any language he knows. Latin Is used because It Is the universal lan guage of science names of medicines in Latin are the aame to physicians and pharmaclststhe world over. The proscription Is merely an order from doctor to pharmacist. Most doctors will interpret a prescription to the patient, or write It In simple English, If he requests it. (Protected by John F.

Beverly Hills, Colli. correct Seeds were more than bal anced by the shrewd cheerfulness of Nagglar. Having started a highly successful career as the son of the drogoman at the French embassy in Constantinople, Naggiar could af ford optimism. -The difference be tween Naggiar and Seeds partly ex plains the difference in tempo that always existed between the French and British. The difficult point was always the Intense, and subsequently Justified, reluctance of all the border states to accept Russian aid against the Germans in the form of an expedi tionary force. During June, Poland and Rumania were the problems dis cussed between Seeds and Naggiar and Molotoff and Potemkin. who were representing Stalin. At length, the principle was agreed on that, while the Russians would give imme diate help in such forms as sup plies, they would wait until Invited to send their armies. By mid-June, the Allied dtplomates expected that the treaty would soon be concluded. But, behind the scenes, the Russians were already busy haggling with their new Ger man friends. They are believed to have got down to cases early ln July, when the polite, tx-lucky turn coat, Von Papen, undertook a secret mission to Moscow. Meanwhile, the Russian ambassadors at Paris and London categorically denied all deal ings with Germany, and the British and French envoys at Berlin. Blr Neville Henderson and Robert Cou londre. had the renssurtng pleasure of hearing the Russian charge d'af faires th?ro (who was actually tak ing part In the negotiations) make a huge Joke of the matter. English and French suspicions were not preatly aroused, therefore, when the Russians ocean to ask a little more whenever full agreement seemed to be in prospect. First, they asked whether they might send troops without invitation, if Germany at tempted a blitzkrieg against the Bal tic states.

And. finally, they suggested that, before signing the treaty, military missions ought to visit Moscow to work out the program of military cooperation. In each case, the British hesitated and then, urged on by the French, Joined them In consent. About mid-August, when the mili tary missions arrived, the Russians suddenly showed their hand. All the talk of sending troops by Invi tation only was forgotten. "Preven tive occupation" of the Baltic states and Poland began to be mentioned. Permission to Russia to "preventively occupy" her neighbors' territory ob viously meant the end of the small states England and France were try ing to protect. The British and French balked at last. Whereupon the Russo-German pact, giving Rus sia precisely the price she had de manded of the British and French, was immediately announced. At The National Capitol with John W.

A. G. McKenzle, secretary of the Utah chapter of American Mining congress, said operations throughout tho minerally-rlch state are "about normal" because warring nations had accumulated large stocks of metals before fighting started. "Prices In 1937 were raised to about 14 cents a pound for copper because of the European demand for the red metal which they are shooting over there now," McKenzle said. He added the present price of around 13 cents Is actually sub-normal. The mining authority warned that after the war there probably would be a severe setback. BOISE, Idaho, Oct. 14. t Oov. C. A.

By IKANk JL.Nkl.NS HITLER, "Informed aources" In Berlin confide, la disappointed with Chamberlain's answer to his peace offer. So. according to these same sources, he haa decided to begin war In earnest against Britain and Prance. Hitler, you see, needs to save his face, the same as Chamberlain. LET'S get thla face saving straight. World empires, such as the Brl J tish, are held together by a combln ' atlon of fear and self interest much the same as gangster organizations. As long as the leader can inspire j his underlings with a healthy mea sure of fear and at tha same time can keep them convinced that It Is to their interest to stay with him, the organization endures. But when the leader shows signs of weakness, they BREAK UP. If England knuckles under to Hit ler It will be a sign of weakness, and the British empire (soon or late) will begin to break up. It Is Chamberlain's Job to prevent that from happening. ADVENTURERS, such as Hitler (and Napoleon ln an earlier day), retain their hold upon their followers (and therefore their Jobs) only as long as they can maintain the APPEARANCE OF INVINCIBIL ITY. If they let somebody bluff them. If they permit ANYTHING to happen that shatters the Illusion of invincibility, they are on dangerous ground. Such a slip might spoil everything. That Is the fix Hitler Is ln. It Is the fix Napoleon was in from the time he first seized power In France until his downfall. Adventurers have to KEEP ON WINNING. Hitler CAN'T LOSE FACE. If ' he does, he Is sunk. THIS business of saving face Is VERY REAL INDEED, even If on the surface it does seem to contain elements of absurdity. Take Vie case of two small boys who start making passes at each other on the schoolground. When the affair begins to get serious, both would probably like to back out. But neither DARES to back out. Backing out would Involve loss of respect on the part of their com rades. It Is better to FIGHT AND GET LICKED than to back down and be Jeered as a coward. Don't underestimate the import ance of saving face. It reaches clear down to the grass roots of human existence. BECAUSE the British and the French empires, on one side, and Hitler, the adventurer, on the other, have got themselves into a position where saving face all around Is dif ficult. If not impossible, millions may have to die. PORTLAND. Oct. 14. (Pi Califor nia horses captured top prizes at the Pacific International Livestock ex position's horse show last night.
