The war In Europe has taken the minds of the American peo ple off their own troubles, which In some quarters Is held to be a blessing. Nevertheless, Jt is possible some of the ten million Jobless, in the land, give a thought at meal time, to their own unhappy lot, while guns and statesmen roar. "SAFE DRIVERS IN BeW RECOGNIZED." (Hriline Bend Bulletin). It serves them right. GRID HONEYMOON FADES Tha season of the comparltive cores has arrived In pigskin circles. This is the gentle art of winning football games be fore they are played, and always cheer defenders of a lost cause no end. Once a local sport acribe, In all seriousness, poured a batch of comparative scores Into a typewriter, and proved the Southern Oregon Normal school could trounce Notre Dome with ease. It la also tha season of the year, when the sport scribes cease describing the home team with fancy adjectives and lofty praise, and rub journalistic salt In the wounds of the vanquished warriors. The heroes of high gridiron hopes at Salem and As toria, fell by the wayside re cently, and to defeat, is added the following scorn: Says the Astoria Astorlnn Budget, unfeelingly: "They are getting sick of being called the "scoreless wonders." They don't like the distinction of being the greatest huddle talking team In Astoria history, at the same time being the grandest tray of cream puffs ever served to the opposition. That would make any youngster mad." The Salem Statesman also minces no words, and lets fly at their Vikings, on the front page, in this manner: "A bunch of beautifully coached Bulldogs made mon keys out of Salem high's far from vicious Vikings on Sweetland last night, the Al bany lads loping to a 28 to 0 No-Name league grid victory with about the snme degree of ease that Popeye pulls out of predicaments. "Fired up like a torch, the snappy, hard-chnrging 'Dogs dug two touchdowns out from under the local preppers within the first nine minutes of what was billed as a ball game and added two more In the final period before giving away to second and third stringers." Yet, there was a day, when these targets were the "Fight ing Fishermen, and the "Val lant Vikings," and everything good and great, In football britches. "Mont Bundy was up from hit Willow creek ranrh Wed nesday doing a bit of trading and wondering what it Is all about." (Heppner, Ore., News) Flabbergasted!

Raymond Refer flew in from Medford via Chicago. Says he had a fine trip except for one touch of rain in the Middlewest At the Chicago airport he ran into Mr. and Mrs. Braley (.Mrs. Brnley the former Mrs. Edith Patton). Thia was news to ye editor, one eould have knocked him over with a handful of eigaret smoke 1 Refer must have a gift for running; into notables. He had been here only a few minutes when he met George Bonne Car penter, former well known valley fruit grower, who with Mrs. (.'. is spending the customary six months at the Shoreham. And the next contact was with none other than yours very truly. Ahem I We escorted Raymond over to see Senator McNary's dffiee where was Johnny Kelly (as usual) and a Mr.(we believe) I'aulliamuR of Portland. R. R. told his story and ways and meanR were discussed for aiding the pear and apple growers to make some money nut. of what remain of this year'a crop. Reter is optimistic, hut nothing will he known definitely until the end of next week, at the close of the hearings. Senator MeNary is on the losing side of the arms embargo fight, but has no apologies to make. He sincerely believes repealing the embargo at this time a serious mistake from the standpoint of sound American policy, so naturally he is sticking to his guns. But there ia an excellent chance he will win in the fight to save Pacific coast shipping from destruction, through an amend ment exempting it from the neutrality measure. Many of the strongest supporters of the repeal of the arms embargo are for such action. The longer we stay here the clearer ona outstanding fact becomes : The strongest aingle sentiment in Washington ia the desire for PEACE, but those representatives in either house of con gress willing to pay cash money for it, can be counted on the fingers of one hand. One should not lose sight of thia fact, in any predictions concerning this country's eventual involvement in the European war. The call of the bird of peace ia strong, but the call of the pocketbook may be stronger! Here is another thing we have learned. All this talk about Germany attacking this country after beating England and France, is the MOST COMPLETE AND UNMITIGATED NONSENSE I So if anyone tries that sort of propaganda on yon give him the loud and raucous horselaugh. Sorry we can't give onr highest authority for such a state ment, but strange as it may seem, it comes from a general in the U. S. army. And when an army general ridicules one of the favorite argument for greater preparedness, that's NEWS I Here is the answer in a few words. Leslie Hore-Belisha, British war minister, boasts about the new record established in transporting British troops to France, 1f8,000 in five weeks. That is at the rate of a little over 30,000 per week, across a narrow channel, completely free from naval opposition, with the support of the largest and best equipped navy in the world. If that ia the best the greatest, naval power in history can do, across the English channel a two or three honr trip what could any other power do, or THAT power across the Atlantic ocean a four or five day trip which couldn't be swept free from at least U-boat resistance! And if it COULD be accomplished, then what! No power or group of powers could accomplish anything along the line of conquest with less than a million well equipped men. And while tliev landed 30,000 in a week, what would the United States he dningt, why the U. S. marines alone could mow them down as fast as they came up I Oh there 'a much more to it. But you can put this in your pipe and smoke it: any talk about armed invasion of this coun try either now or in the immediate future, is the most unmiti gated eye-wash, and everyone in Washington who really KNOWS anything about the subject, KNOWS it. So, as fal sa that particular bogey is concerned, FORGET it I Perhaps we have that seventh sense some news reporters boast, perhaps not. At any rate tiring of Senator Bennett Clark's magnns opus, against, arms embargo repeal in the senate, we wandered over to the Dies committee hearing in the Old House building, just on a chance, not even knowing the com mittee was in session in fact when presto! we ran directly into a battery of Klieg lights aud movie sound machines, with none other than General Krivitsky, former chief of the Soviet military intelligence, on the standi And for over an hour we listened to the general tell what he knows about Soviet, activity in the United States. The news has already appeared in the Mail Tribune, of course so there is no point in repeating it, but it IS pretty disquieting, particu larly when one observes what Soviet Russia is doing now apparently starting an imperial march of conquest, which may go down in history along with the sweep of the Tartar hordes, or the march of the Turks to the west. There is no threat to this country thank the Lord, hut one trembles to think what may happen to Europe. General Krivitsky gave his evidence through an interpreter although it was apparent he understood the questions which were delivered to him (in English). Not an impressive looking man in fact before we knew what was ning on, we took the two "witnesses" to be a couple of hot J bellboys, who had obtained some "keyhole" evidence, and were delivering same with rather exaggerated solemnity to the red baiting Dies and his compatriots. The huge committee room wss well fi'led, but we were able to get a seat at the press table, so were soon enlightened as to what was going on. Yes, the general isn't impressive looking, hut his story was, because we can't believe such a wealth of information could be faked. We may be wrong of course. Russians are notori ously imaginative and romantic. But after the general admitted his real name was Samuel Ginsberg, that he was horn in the Ukraine .lune 'JS, ISO0, that he broke with Stalin when the latter abandoned all democratization of the T'.S.R.R. in 'XM, aud went on to give names. DATES, FACTS AND FIGURES, we decided the burden of proof of those who regard him as a Russianized "Dr. Cook" rests on the skeptics. Men who are engaged in that sort of thing, are usually too smart, to give a mass of figures and facts and dates, WHICH CAN SO EASILY BE CHECKED! If half what the general states is true, we shouldn't think his life would he worth thirty crnts. The man didn't look very happy (hut Russians never arc) and he did have a rather hunted, haunted air about him. We also noticed there were many policemen scattered over the room, and they cleared the halls outside before the general and his interpreter, left their seats. The most alarming statement the general made was to the effect that not only have Germany and Russia been cooperating in a military way since l!)?2, but the recent non-aggression pact is a M I LI T A Ii Y A G R K E M EN T, calling for mutual armed assist ance, and distinct and separate zones of influence. In other words if the general can be believed then Russia's march into the Baltic area is with Berlin's consent, aud according to a I'louoiu KiiMO-Giuuiati agreement. We just DON'T BELIEVE THIS, but have to admit that similar statement the genera made in the Saturday Evening Post, which weren't believed at the time, were afterwards sustained by the events. Have to wait and see. The truth can only be established by future events. Certainly this outbreak of war has been a life-saver for the Dies committee. When we were here last February the commit tee had a hard time getting a paltry $100,000 tfl continue ita investigations, and the doings of the committee, were very generally deplored as nothing more than silly, low brow red baiting. But now Dies and his fellow colleagues are sitting on the top of the world, the cynosure of all eyes (and sound machines!) and ARE they eating it up! Following the meeting yesterday the committee and the general put on a private show for nearly two hours soley for the benefit of the news reel boys. No doubt G. Hunt will be showing it at no very distant date. AYell we are glad to note that the pro-administration speak ers are at. last, showing some sense. Yesterday both Senators Austin and Burke (the latter one of Governor Martin's pals) frankly admitted the repeal of the arms embargo was desirable because it DOES aid Britain and France, and because this is true they are for it. It is refreshing to have the cool air of candor and honesty admitted to the senate debate at last! Tt should make dis semblers like Connolly and Pitlmnn feel pretty cheap, but probablv won't I IT'S STILL HOTI R. W.

Calif. MEDICINE INCLUDES DENTISTRY AND HEALTH Up to 1840 when the first col lege In the world for the train ing of dentists was established (Baltimore College of Dental Surgery) only physicians and a few itinerant charlatans practiced den tistry. The school was set up as a separ ate institution because the various medi cal schools of the time, char-acteristic-a 1 1 y enough, declined to provide pro per instruction for students seeking to practice dentistry and unfortunately for them selves the dentists have never forgotten or forgiven that nar row, short-sighted attitude of the medical profession. Nevertheless the field of den tistry Is embraced within the general field of medicine, as is the field of health. In time the feud will die out and the sep arate dental schools will be closed and all prospective den tal practitioners will receive their fundamental training in the medical school, with the de gree of M.D., and then whatever technical postgraduate training the practice of the specialty, dentistry, may require. Then I'll call the dentor "Doctor." Prevention or treatment of diseases, injuries or defects of the teeth is always the concern of the physician, for the state of the teeth, in infancy, child hood, youth, maturity or old age has a great deal to do with health. When cavity formation be gins, the fissure in the enamel, so easily polished out if the den tor catches it early, simply af fords a crevice where food de tritus, starch or sugar pabulum and bacteria may lodge and consequent acid fermentation proceed. In my opinion. I do not believe the bacteria and food detritus and acid formation would occur if the enamel were not fissured first. Likewise in pyorrhea, or In terstitial gingivitis, as the den tor may call it in the early stage the impairment of general health or vitality Is not, as Is sometimes assumed, the conse quence of swallowing pus or other "poisonous" material from The Capital Parade By Joseph Aisop and Robert Kintner Released by The North American Newspaper Alliance. Ino WASHINGTON. Oct. 16 Since the dismissal of the un fortunate war resources board, the impression has got about that business men's emergency participation In the government is at an end. This is not the fact. Actually, many of the gov ernment agencies and depart ments are constantly calling for business volunteers, but, as the new recruits are greeted with no great fanfare, their presence is not noticed. At the commerce department, indeed, the business volunteers Brady, M.D. the gums it is doubtful wheth er this ever has any ill conse quence in any case; but rather the manifestation of the nutri titional deficiency underlying pyorrhea, especially as already indicated, the prolonged or habi tual shortage of vitamins D, C, A and B-complex and the min erals calcium and phosphorus in the intake. In comparatively few instances, notwithstanding much loose conjecture and destructive surgery based on it, is a general or systemic ailment cured or markedly helped by the surgical eradication of a presumptive septic focus or source of focal infection about the teeth. The efficiency of the teeth in chewing food has a profound influence on health and vile. Proper mastication promotes di gestion and lessens the load on gastric and duodenal digestion. Sound, even, perfectly occluding teeth make thoro mastication of natural foods a pleasure, and enable one to derive from such foods all of the elements neces sary for optimal health and vigor.

Calif. have been chiefly instrumental in building up an entirely new departmental prestige and au thority. Under old Uncle Dan Roper, commerce was a shabby warren of political hacks. When Harry L. Hopkins was made secretary, he had great plans, but his unlucky illness caused them to be stillborn. Only lately has the amiable under secretary, the ex-lifesaver king. Edward Noble, been able to get a real grip on departmental affairs. As soon as it was clear that he was fully In charge in his chief's absence. Noble began bringing down men to Infuse new life in the department. Some of them are young busi ness men of a liberal cast of mind, like Dudley P. K. Wood, formerly a director of Ameri can Machine and Foundry. Oth ers are seasoned veterans, like ; Robert E. McConnell. a slishtly ! surprising millionnaire who a 111 I serve as a typical specimen of ithis novel genus of public ser vant. McConnell. whose official title is now business adviser to the department of commerce, is a tallish, dark, pleasant spoken men. He does not seem to have gained the self-confidence most men would derive from the pos session ol a very respectable number of millions of dollars. Yet he has done some bold things in his time. He was born In Montrose. Colorado, In 1889, graduated from the Columbia University school of mines, and became a mining engineer In the years before the first world war. He did not do so badly in the busi ness, but he had made no name for himself when the United States joined the allies. He came on to Washington to vol unteer, was made a junior lieu tenant in the navy, and put in charge of the navy's nitrates section. There, rather fretfully, he stayed until the war ended. Then, the army was intense ly anxious to get its hands on the process for manufacturing artificial nitrates, which had en abled Germany to prolong her resistance. Because so many ar my officers wanted to fight the battle of Paris, there was a gen eral order forbidding any of them to leave for France after the armistice. Not wishing lo make an exception, Secretary of War Newton D. Baker applied to Assistant Secretary Franklin D. Roosevelt for a young navy officer to get the German form ula. McConnell was chosen, sailed for Europe, and made his way to one of the German towns where the nitrates were being manufactured. The secret of the German process was the chem ical catalyst by which hydro gen and nitrogen were com bined into ammonia. The cata lyst was sealed up In the fac tory's huge blending tanks, and the factory managers politely refused to give McConnell a sample. Finally, he went to the French commander of the army of occupation, asked angrily, "who the hell won this war?" and obtained a military escort with whose help he got all that he wanted. Ho was just in time, for, a few days later, Germany's right to her chemical secrets was suddenly confirmed. After the war, McConnell went into the investment busi ness, and in 1929 founded an investment trust, the Mayflower Associates, which was given the SEC's blue ribbon for good management. A s Mc Connell sold out the trust's portfolio just after the market peak in 1929, re-invested its funds just be fore the low in 1932, and final ly liquidated it at the high in 1936, the blue ribbon was well deserved. The stockholders got $137 or every $60 they had put in. and McConnell got his hand some private fortune. Besides his work at the commerce del partment, his great interests now are his big farm in Vir ginia, and the collection of ani mals which he Is building up for the New York natural his tory museum. McConnell has had a singular career, but his contribution to the government is by no means singular. He and the other busi ness men like him bring a fresh viewpoint and an Informal ap proach to public affairs which puts the regular officials com pletely on their toes. If the men like McConnel were highly pub licized pooh-bahs, they would probably not do much good, for they would be constantly trip ping over their press clippings. But, inconspicuous as these men are, and minor as their official rank may be, their presence in the government Is one of the really encouraging signs of the times. 1 At The National Capitol with John W. Kelly (Contlnuea from Page One.) Marshal Goering was opposed to destruction of Poland as were members of the old military caste. Landed families in Poland are intermarried with military families of Germany. When Sta lin moved Into Poland he seized the large estates and turned them over to the peasants. -OPPONENTS of Hitler in Ger- many, according to the ru mor, are ready to dispose of him and his group or turn Hit ler over to the allies for them to act as they wish. In return for the surrender of Hitler the Germans wish to make a pact ! by which France and Britain (will assist Germany in keeping Stalin in his place. Such is the peace rumor i floating around Washington and 'in the financial circles. Far l fetched as It sounds, it has had an effect on the stock market, and concerns which were plan : ning expansion of their plants ! in anticipation of war orders! j are now waiting to see what ! will happen. DRESIDENT Roosevelt is ada- mant in his decision to have! congress take up nothing but i neutrality during the special session. He could ask for an appropriation to house the in-1 creased army but prefers to pro-1 ceed without the authority .if i appropriation, knowing the con-' gross in January will furnish ; the funds. Admiral Land, chair- i man of the Federal Maritime Commission, has been begging h whiia Hnnxp to lower the bars and permit congress to enact war risK insurance, tor u,wiu tv,ar ic a demand from shippers on the Pacific and At lantic coasts. There are a number of other measures of importance await ing action, but Democratic lead ers have been directed to dis courage the introduction of any bills or the holding or any meet ings by committees until the neutrality legislation is passed and then the president wants the members to go home and remain there until January 3. GOVERNMENT officials have a different rule for the Pa cific Northwest than for the south. They are insisting that for every box of apples or pears bought the growers shall get rid of a box. In the south the government does not ask that for every bale of cotton ac quired by federal agencies tha another bale be destroyed. In cidentally, the government has paid the cotton planters more than a half-billion dollars. At the moment Triple A of ficials are under fire for not displaying interest in the prune situation in Oregon and Wash ington. This matter was called to their attention several months ago since which time nothing has been done. The administra tion's policy toward cotton and corn (the secretary of agricul ture is from Iowa, a corn state) and the shabby treatment of the fruit growers of the Northwest has been dinned into the ears of the policy makers of Triple A. In lhe ' "4 ' .'; VJv' '' "Day -si 3 1 r ii-.r By Frank Jenkins JS the sinking of the British battleship Royal Oak a sign that the German war to the knife and the knife to the hilt has begun? It doesn't just look that way. It has more the appearance of a pot shot by a lucky sub marine. -t OOT-SHOTTING a single bat- tleship, while a distinct Ger man achievement,- isn't spectac ular enough to indicate that Hit ler has reached a decision to try another blitzkrieg this time against the British navy. IJITLER announced some time ago that if Britain and France refused to make peace he and Stalin would get together and, figure out what to do about it. Either that is happening now, or Hitler lied. The impression is growing throughout the world that It is STALIN who will decide what Is to be done about It. (The impression is even stronger that whatever is done will be strictly for STALIN'S BENEFIT, with Hitler given scant consideration). IT'S a fair guess that Stalin would feel toward a life and death struggle between Britain and France on one side and Germany on the other about as WE would feel toward a sim ilar struggle between Russia and Japan. THE Royal Oak, commissioned in 1914. was getting old, as battleships go. But its construc tion WAS supposed to provide protection against immediate sinking by a torpedo. The pur pose back of such construction is to keep a crippled ship afloat long enough to get it to a base where It can be repaired and put back into service. All accounts available so far indicate that the Royal Oak went down within a short time after being hit. EVERYTHING so far indicates - that when a torpedo gets a fair shot at a warship the warship is doomed. What air planes can do against a modern battle fleet remains to be proved. If and when he starts fighting the British In earnest. Hitler is pretty sure to try to prove it. THE sinking of the Royal Oak, however accomplished, strengthens Hitler's hand in his present peace deal (which isn't ended) because it arouses Bri tish fears that he may be able to whittle the British fleet down to his size.
