Short But - Sour
WITH our habitual aversion to stating the obvious,
we shall forego the usual moralizing, occasioned
by the departure of one year and the arrival of
another.
At the close of the first "war-year",- in two de
cades, the temptation is great, but as a preliminary
New Year resolution, we are going to resist it, there
will be plenty of editorial pontificators who won't.
In fact our only direct comment on the advent of
a brand new year will be to enumerate a few of the
things we expect Uncle Sam to accomplish in the
next 12 months, ergo and to-wit:
Keep at peace AND help the allies win the war.
See that no one in America goes without adequate
food and shelter, AND balance the budget.
Continue to play politics, AND elect a capable,
sane, and level-headed citizen to be President.
Refuse to be influenced by self-seeking and ag
gressive minorities AND uphold that sacred principle
of a free democracy majority government.
"H one could think of many more, but properly
understood, the above should satisfy the old boy,
with stripes on his pants, as a New Year starter.
The Man of the Year
"TIME" has selected Joseph Stalin, as the "Man of
- X i-T tr it
nie i ear.
The usual indignant protests will now pour in,
probably as many, or more, than a year ago, when the
same magazine chose Adolf Hitler.
Yet in both instances we think the Time editors
have been right.
For the "Man of the Year" selepMnn has nnthinrr
to do with the desirability, or propriety of the individ
ual's acts; but solely his net accomplishments regard
less of their moral consemienaps frnm th nfnnrlnm'nf
of world affairs.
And undoubtedly viewinrr tho vear a
whole, the Russian dictator was its outstanding per
sonality, the individual who made
upon the world and its affairs than any other, and
ii urn uie international standpoint was the most successful.
THERE is one interesting thing, however, about
a line b men ui me
instance the award has
death."
A year aeo Hitler, was
and TjrODerlv SO. frit he had
a crushed and humiliated
one oi an Europe.
Now; look at Adolf, if you can find him !
He is not onlv friendless fVnm an lntpvnntmnal
standpoint, he has always
ivussian Dear on one siae and the allies on the other,
he is powerless, which for a dictator means death.
SO here is another prediction, for the New Year.

out now aoout tne iztn r
Time has the answer, a
Stalin splurge.
We quote:
"After three weeks war Russia's planned Blitzkrieg
had definitely failed to "BLITZ." Defeated on two fronts
and held on the third, the Red army had lost Immeasur
ably in men, morale, prestige. . . . Even in Moscow the
Russian casualties were estimoted at 30,000. The Finns
were believed to have lost less than 4000. ... So many
Russians have frozen to death they fear an epidemic
when the corpses thaw in the spring."
A world power of 180 million heatpn and
thrown out into the snow bv
perhaps the most astounding military upset in all
modern history! No, neither the "man of steel" nor
any other figure can stand that.
And cion t torget this.
In this eame of nower politics, no dictator is strono-.
er than his armed forces.
It is a little earlv of course, to nptnallv omint tho

Those who might oppose such action on the
ground that with our budget out of balance, and a
terrific debt, we could not afford to make such
a sacrifice, probably have never taken the trouble to
find out just the amount Finland borrowed from
Uncle Sam.
As such things go, it was definitely microscopic,
i e: $8,281,926.
But of course that is not the point. The way
the loan was met, not its exact amount, it what
aroused the respect and gratitude of the American
people even before, the gallant little land was at

DUT while on the subject, this loan certainly dem-
onstrates the uneconomic features of borrowing
money even at a low rate of interest.
Yes Finland has never missed its semi annual
interest payments but the debt today is practically
what it was at the outset, namely $8,142,990. Yet
during this period the total payments by Finland
foot up to $5,656,598!
Over $5,000,000 paid, to reduce a debt by

WOUNDS, CLEANLINESS AND COLDS
The degree of scarring left by
a wound depends primarily on
the degree of damage or de
struction of tissue, of course,
but much de
pends also on
the skill and
care applied in
the first aid
and early
treatment of
the wound
For this reas
on it is a dis
tinct advan
tage to have
the expert ser
vice of a plas
tic surgeon in
the early treatment of wounds
likely to leave scars.
The most efficient all-around
antiseptic and disinfectant for
everybody is plain soap ond
water.
Notwithstanding all the popu
lar obsessions about antiseptics
and antiseptic precautions the
indifference of the public in re
gard to cleanliness is appalling.
Especially shocking is our na
tional carelessness about wash
ing the hands before eating and
drinking. The primitive facilities
for such cleanliness in restaur
ants, lunchrooms, soda fountains
and the like are shocking when
one knows something about the
diseases that are so frequently
spread thru such uncleanliness.
Many cities have pretentious or
dinances prescribing minimum
requirements of cleanliness for
such places, but Yankee politics
runs most health departments
and the sanitary regulations are
not taken seriously.
There is no more efficient
antiseptic lotion or first aid
cleaning of a wound than plain
soapy water.
There is no better antiseptic
wet dressing for an infected,
painful or suppurating wound or
boil or "run around" than a
large pad or mass of gauze kept
wet with hot soapy water.
Now a word about wet feet
and "colds." I still believe and
assert without reservation that
a doctor never gives serious con
sideration to getting the feet wet
or undue exposure unless he is
unable to determine what really
ails the patient or hesitates to
say frankly "I can't make a
positive diagnosis as yet I can
only wait until development of
the illness makes the diagnosis
possible. If your patient is one
of limited intelligence you have
to piddle along with the "heavy
cold" hokum until you can safe
ly say what you think he has
got. The less intelligence the
more easily humbugged that
way.
If a quack has a panacea or

Released by The North

Washington, Dec. 30. A pret
ty good bet Is that, when con
gress meets, the president will
have to extend some sort of
fairly substantial aid to Fin
land. The Finns have already
received a loan of $10,000,000
for non-militnry purposes, and
have been allowed to purchase
a number of planes which our
army had contracted for. But
ahle Finnish Minister HJalmar
Procopc, in his almost daily vis
its to undersecretary of state
Sumner Welles, is anxiously
stressing his country's desperate
need for guns, ammunition and
the ordinary supplies of war.
How to do something for the
Finns is being carefully pon
dered. From the president down,
everyone In the administration
wants to help tVcm. The prrsi-di-nt
has hncl to n-p . pi'. ious
inclinations of the same sort,

cureall you will notice he
doesn't offer it as a cure for
diphtheria or influenza or sinu
sitis or brain fever or Infantile
paralysis. He offers it as a cold
cure, because a "cold" is what
everybody thinks he has when
he is coming down with any of
these respiratory infections. And
if your family doctor hums and
haws about wet feet, undue ex
posure and keeping well under
the covers he is doing yeoman
service for the great nostrum
and quackery business.
When I make that crack about
the low order of intelligence of
the layman who is willing to
believe his illness is a "cold"
in the early stage I hope you
won't get mad. Maybe you have
extenuation for your silly no
tion that wet feet or undue ex
posure certainly gives you- a
"cold." Drop in again and we'll
examine your extenuation.
, QUESTIONS It ANSWERS
Students Must Practice
Can you tell mo why my wife had
to have a Wasserman test twice be
fore the baby was born and ten days
after the baby was born In the
Hospital public ward. (H. P.)
Answer Perhaps Internes or stu
dents learning how to take blood or
fluid for such tests. That's one rea
son why doctors give their services
free of charge or at low rates In
clinics, dispensaries and public wards.
, Hernia
Dad Is receiving Injection treat
ment for hernia from Dr u of
our town with the advice of Dr
of We are all very well
pleased. (M. S.)
Answer The modern treatment of
hernia is now In use by the better
physicians everywhere. The doctor
who has the temerity to dismiss in
quiries about the Injection treatment
with the assurance that It Is "no
good," dangerous or "has been tried
and found unsatisfactory" Is simply
deceiving his patient with a petty
desire to mask his own backward
ness In the profession.
Recipes
May I please have your Instruc
tions and recipes for using wheat
germ? My son, aged 11 . . . (Mrs.
W. E. M.)
Answer I have none, except the
general suggestion that wheat germ
meal may be Incorporated In any
recipe calling for flour, by substitut
ing the wheat germ for one-half of
the flour the recipe calls for. Or It
tastes good enough to eat raw, mixed
with any cereal, fruit or soup or other
beverage. I have a monograph
"Wheat to Eat" which gives Instruc
tions and recipes for the use of plain
wheat In the everyday diet. For copy
of this send three-cent-stamped en
velope bearing your address.

from fear of isolationist senti
ment. But, although aid for Finland
flies straight in the face of the
kind of mandatory, mechanical
neutrality which they advocate,
neither Nye, nor Borah, nor
Clark nor Vandenberg, nor any
other extreme isolationist has
raised his voice in public to
date. They seem to have sus
pended their theories from ap
plication to the Russo-Finnish
war.
The situation looks very
promising, therefore. When con
gress meets, sentiment will be
carefully tested to see whether
the present favorable appear
ances are deceptive.
If all seems well, a move will
probably be made to give the
Finns a loan for armaments, or
to sell them armaments out of
our arsenals, or to set aside
further war department priori
ties in their favor, or to do all
three things at once.
Just lately the new dral'a prize
economic forecast have been be
having like the occasional prophets
who announce the end of the world
for a given dat. and gather a little
aect of true-believera to await dooms
day In gloomy communion.
The day dawns, bright and clear,
with no faintest rumble of Gabriel's
trumpet. Then th prophets scurry
home, recheck their computations of
the steps In the Great Pyramid or
the number of words in Genesis, and
explain that due to a mathematical
error, .they were wrong by a year
or so.
Only a few months ago. the new
deal economists were unanimous
thnt a sharp recession m-as to be
c , .ed in Jini:ry. The grim curve
I waa neatly plotted, beginning wltn
large surplus inventory, continuing
with a slow stoppage of the machin
ery in the mills, and ending only
with foreign war-buying In the sum
mer. Even tbe treasury's usually
optimistic thinkers sadly concurred.
Then came unanticipated demand
for cotton textiles, reports from the
steel-makers that their back-log
would keep them working at capac
ity through the first quarter of 1940,
and general buying which reduced
manufacturers Inventories more than
bad been hoped. A few weeks ago
the economist! began to wonder.
Now, watching Industrial production
booming along at the highest rate
In the natlon'a history, they too
have had to scurry borne to check
their computations.
Most of them have relapsed Into
an unaccustomed optimism, but the
two most influential b'IU refuse to
be wholly bright-minded. One mem
ber of the pair still asyt that Jan
uary will produce a recession, but
less sharp than he had thought.
He thinks that the production
Index will drop perhaps 10 points
in the first three months of the
next year, but he Is comparatively
cheerful about prices, consumer buy
ing power and housing construction.
The other feela that the expected
recession has probably been de
ferred. If It comes, he says It will
come In April and May. But he la
willing to admit that, the winter
months having been successfully got
through, the slump may never come
at all.
The presidential campaign of New
York's young gang-buster, Thomas
B. Dewey, Is as carefully managed
as the grooming of a prize steer for
the atate fair. His big west coast
speech, for example. Is to be made
In Oregon because Oregon Is the only
west coast state with a reasonably
united Republican party.
In California and Washington, be
would have had to step on the toes
of one faction by associating with
the other. He prefers to associate
with none. And before he consented
to go to Oregon, both his lady train
er, Mrs. Ruth Hanna Mccormick
Sims, and the governor of Oregon
telephoned Senator Charles L. Mc
Kary to ask whether It was all right
with him to have Dewey speak In
his state.
Communications
Favors Reciprocal Treaties
To the Editor:
Experience with reciprocal
trade agreements to date shows
no such dire results as predicted
by opponents, but on the con
trary beneficial increases in our
foreign trade increases which
would have been even greater
had normal international com
merce not been interrupted by
the war.
Never before in our history
have tariffs been fixed with
such careful attention to the
interests of protected industries,
export industries and the gen
eral consuming public. Exhaus
tive interdepartmental and Tar
iff Commission studies have re
placed Congressional tariff log
rolling. Failure to renew the trade
agreements act, or weakening it
in any way as by giving the
Senate a veto over the agree
ments would be a long step
backward. This would be most
unfortunate at a time when the
United States is trying both to
improve business relations with
South America and to persuade
European nations to abandon
their suicidal warfare in favor
of peaceful and prosperous com
merce which is possible only
if these nations follow our ex
ample, and either form a tariff
free United States of Europe, or
else enter extensively into re
ciprocal trade agreements with
each other to eliminate their
business-stifling, hate-engendering
trade barriers.
In our trade agreements we
have set a good example for the
rest of the world and not with
out profit to ourselves. What
sound reason is there for now
emasculating them or giving
tnem up?

NEW YEARS EVE

New
By Frank Jenkins
TTHE great earthquake in Tur-
key is reported as these
words are written (on Thursday)
to- have caused 9,000 deaths.
For one day, at least, nature
is crowding the war-makers out
of the top headlines.
TWELVE cities, ranging in
population from 12,000 to
to 40,000, along with 80 vil
lages, are reported to have been
destroyed.
When you see a picture of
a mountain, you can't grasp its
size unless in the foreground
there is a picture of something
familiar, such as a man or a
horse or a house. Let us try to
put something familiar beside
this staggering picture of dis
aster in Turkey.
In Oregon, there are six cities
(outside of Portland) of 10,000
or more population. In north
ern California (north of Sacra
mento and the bay district)
there are two cities of more
than 10,000 population.
It is as if all these eight
cities and FOUR MORE, along
with 80 villages, had been de
stroyed. pHE city of Erzingan, 40,000
population, lies in burning
ruins, with EVERY LARGE
BUILDING COLLAPSED.
That is as if Medford, Rose
burg and Klamath Falls should
ALL be totally destroyed by a
single catastrophe.
IN the Turkish earthquake,
bursting gas mains and over
turned oil lamps promptly set
fire to the collapsed buildings.
Modern progress, as exemplified
by city gas, and oil lamps,
which in one form or another
are almost as old as civilization,
contributed alike to the destruc
tion. pDGAR C. Thrupp, a mem--
ber of the engineering in
stitute of Canada, predicted a
disastrous earthquake between
December 25 and January 10.
The Turkish quake falls mid
way between these dates.
He explains that he has de
veloped a new "theory of grav
itation" which makes possible
the forecasting within a leeway
of seven to 10 days of important
earthquake disturbances, which
are caused by faults in the hard
ened crust that surrounds the
molten interior of the earth.
He says that 1940 will bring
the most destructive earth
quakes of the 20th century, and
adds that while he can predict
when (within the 7 to 10 day
limit) he can't predict WHERE.
Known faults in the earth's
surface, however, give a clue to
possible earthquake disturb
ances. All of Oregon except the
northeast corner is in what is
considered to be a safe zone.

since discovery that It Is actually an

President Roosevelt wants to com

reason why he la sending a personal
