"Commonsense, Inc." of Ore
gon plans a vote on repeal of
the Knox Liquor control low.
There comes the vagrant thought
It should be Commonsense, Ltd.
. A notion originating In Seattle,
Wash., proposes to give two
votes to property owners, and
one vote to all others. As only
43 per cent of the voters are
able to find the strength to vote
once at elections, It is feared
doing it twice on the same day
would be too much, and cause
over-exertion.
Russia's conduct of the in
vasion of Finland Is pronounced
by the experts, the "most com
plete military failure in history."
At times it looks like the commander-in-chief
of the army was
appointed to the post because he
was for Josef Stalin, before he
was named dictator.
...
The woods will soon be full of
candidates, with the candidates
full of woulds,
It was so cold yes. several
male members of the No-Hat
brigade, who haven't worn one
for months, accidentally picked
up the nicest looking hat in sight
and several were lucky enough
to get one that fit.

Cook made after getting the ap
pointment as WPA roads super

DOUBTING THOMAS
(Chiloquin Review)
"President Roosevelt' little
plate-aide chat the other eve
ning at the Jackson day dinner
In WnshlitRton may have been a
clever political move, and the
speech may have been funny,
but that's about all you can say
about It."
e e
Seventeen dupes, charged
with seditious conspiracy, car
ried on their plans for devilment,
behind the noble sounding title
of "Christlun Front." The theme
nontf of the outfit was "Reign
Glory We Are Here to See It
So!" Flies never flew to mo
lasses nny faster than dema
gogues hied to this slogan and
Fong. It's an old trick with hell
raisers, like singing "America"
to drown out the sound of crash
ing glass, when the window of a
courthouse vault was whammed
with a monkey-wrench.
YE SILVER LINING
"With new buggies no longer
en the market it's a serious busi
ness these days when such a
horse-drawn vehicle goes into
the ditch. Mr. and Mrs. Oliver
had the now rare experience of
turning over in a buggy the
other day. Neither was .seriously
injured and although the vehicle
was pretty badly warped about,
they feel that they came out of
the scntpc most fortunately. The
best thing about the mishap, Mr.
Oliver says, is that he has not

fOILISHllVy AjsVUTIM
Comedy or Tragedy?
ONE hardly knows whether to laugh or cry over this
alleged terrorist plot in New York City.
It IS funny, the idea of 17 would-be Nazis over
throwing the government and establishing a Feuhrer
dictatorship. One regrets Gilbert and Sullivan aren't
alive so they could set it to music, a perfect theme
for a great "Americana" opera bouffe.
One is even disposed to agree with Mayor La
Guardia, who doesn't think Uncle Sam "is in much
danger from 17 guys like these" had they ever
started anything, one squad of New 'York police
would have had them all in Mattewan before sunset.
And YET,
There is another side to it.
"THE "other side" comes under the general head of
"seeing things under the bed," BUT
Finding the "things" are really there, live, able
bodied men, with bombs and guns in their hands!
And with a man like J. Edgar Hoover confirming
a grim tableaux like that, one can't exactly LAUGH
it off.
IT IS ridiculous, these poor misguided "nuts" sing
ing, "Reign glory, we are here to see it so !" as they
are led off to their detention cells, while their rela
tives weep and wail. But it is also disturbing,
Not as a disease that threatens immediate injury,
but a symptom that threatens future harm.
For while Father Couglin now roundly denounces
the "Christian Front" and officials of that strange
cult disown and discredit this "New York branch,"
the fact remains that this cockeyed "conspiracy," thus
nipped in the bud, is the direct result of the sort of in
cendiary propaganda that his been dished out from
the pulpit of the "Little Flower," and other head
quarters for potential U. S. Fascists, these many
months, as they have viewed with alarm the Com
munist and the Jewish menace, that if not resisted
would soon be taking over the government of the
United States, etc., etc., etc ! !
MINE out of ten American citizens ar j not influ-
enced by such demagogic nonsense, however in
flammatory, they might even like to listen to it, with
that amused scepticism that is accorded the circus
sideshow "barker" and when the storm is over, let
the verbal deluge drain off their various and sundry
consciousnesses like water off a duck's back.
BUT, the tenth man is, and these accused ter
rorists in New York are composed of TENTH men,
misguided fanatics and crackpots, convinced they are
consecrated in a holy cause of national redemption,
and willing to die in the effort.
VES, the spectacle is a familiar one, particularly to
those who were residents of Jackson county six or
seven years ago and saw what similar persistent and
accumulative agitation resulted in, in this section of
the state.
The leaders of that "civil uprising" knew better;
so did nine out of ten of the citizens hereabouts. But
the TENTH man and woman DIDN'T! And, it was
that tenth man, that 10 per cent so shamelessly misled
and misguided, that brought this part of the' state to
the very verge of open insurrection.
. . . . .
fJNDOUBTEDLY had the G-men not acted when
they did, there would have been bloodshed in
New York or Washington as entirely needless as was
the case in Southern Oregon.
And that brings one to the most serious feature of
the entire affair, the difficulty in combatting what
is a distinct national menace, particularly in war time,
or other periods of emotional strain and stress.
No one wishes to curtail the constitutional right of
free speech, and yet that right really ceases when
overt acts of violence are the direct result of it.
' The great trouble IS, in nine cases out of ten, the
direct connection between what is said and what is
done, the free speech and the overt act, can't be
proved, UNTIL IT IS TOO LATE!
Scandinavia Next?
N
0 DOUBT many Americans are surprised that
Soviet luissia should be
shaking same at Scandinavia. If press reports are cor
rect the Soviet Bear has all he can do to handle little
Finland without branching out further to the north
and west.
But such a threat will not surprise the people of
Norway and Sweden. Only a few days after the out
break of the present war, 'a Swedish business man
visited Medford, and said everyone in Scandinavia
was scared over the Russian menace fearing Stalin
would take over the forests, minerals and warm ports
of the peninsula after he had captured Finland.
"Oh, yes," said he, Sweden would resist, but what
could a few millions do against 200 millions, etc., etc!
The Swedish visitor was convinced Russia would
swallow little Finland in a couple of weeks.
So while this Russian threat can come as no sur
prise to the Scandinavians, the successful resistance
of Finland must be at least if our Swedish inform
ant gave the correct view of public opinion in his
native land.
So to a man up a tree it would appear that what
little Finland can do. Sweden and Norway, with
allied assistance, can do even better.

PLEASE EXCUSE
In a talk about sore mouth
recently I cited a report on
studies of "electrogalvanic phe
nomena of the oral cavity
caused by dissimilar metallic
restorations", which the investi
gators, Everett S. Lain, M. D.
and G. Sherrill Caughron, D.
D. S. presented in the Journal
of the American Dental Associ
ation. Then later, evidently assum
ing, like Hitler, that the world
could take it,
I perpetrated
another one,
namely, bra
dycardia but
it seemed I
was still rath
er timid about
it, for I took
pains to ex
plain at once
that bradycar

Nothing hap
pened. Well, well, I decided, I
have my readers intimidated at
last. Now let's go. And the very
next day I hauled off and
handed them an article with a
title calculated to appall nearly
everybody: "The Ubiquitous
Pneumococcus".
But not quite everybody. A
"small, harmless well-meaning
grandmother" who, judging
from letters I have received
from her now and again, is
right up on her toes, inquires
whether I have ever suffered
from "electrogalvanic phenome
na of the oral cavity" and
fears she would if she even at
tempted to "mouth" the leng
thy and awful diseases and re
medics I am expounding these
days. Why not, she adds, com
pletely disarming me, why not
cut down the jaw breakers to
such simple terms as Dr. Brady
(Ol- Doc to you, Grandma) has
popularized to express so much
to ordinary folk such as "cri"
and "vite"?
A swift uppercut that catches
me off balance with my neck
out does more good than all
the bewindering passes, and I
thank Grandma E. E. U. for it
and promise to give her letter
a preferred place In my scrap
book. Is my face red? Indeed, if
the punishment fitted the crime
that wouldn't be all.
In extenuation for the first
offense, I was quoting the title
of the article (for the benefit

PARADE
By JOSEPH ALSOP and
ROBERT KINTNER
Released by the North
American Newspaper
Alliance, Inc.
Washington, Jan. 16. Hol
land and Belgium are again
hastily mobilizing, but they are
not the only neutral, nations
now in danger of sudden Ger
man invasion. Huge concentra
tions of German troops are re
ported on the Dutch and upper
Belgian borders, from Cleves to
Aix La Chnpelle, but there is
also authoritative word of
heavy troop movements into
Slovakia and the tip of German
Poland, on the northern Hun
garian frontier.
Opinion In ihf department Is

that the threat to Hungary is ft
feint, since o few mechaniwd unit
have accompanied the Infantry that

THE $6.50 WORDS
please believe there was no
malice aforethought in these
divertisements. They may even
keep many readers more or
less interested who would oth
erwise pass this column up. For
instance, I was agreeably in
flated by a letter from a high
school girl who said the Eng
lish composition class used my
column in daily class work
but somewhat flabbergasted to
learn that it was a rare day
when the class could not find
one or more errors to criticise.
Painful tho it be to affirm
the fact, it is as true as ever,
that the less a doctor knows
about the subject the more pon
derous and imposing terms he
uses in referring to it, and vice
versa.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Wliat to Eat and Why
Do I understand you scoff about
diet as an aid In maintaining health
or treating disease? You are bo fa
cetious and sarcastic that one can
scarcely tell Just what you are driv
ing at sometimes. And don't you
think we'd be aa profoundly Im
pressed by your erudition if you
used simple English Instead of the
resounding terms you contrive to
sprinkle thru your articles? (S.A.C.)
Ans. Ma'am, you have no Idea.
It might be effective to cite a spe
cific Instance, next time I offend
you, and suggest the simpler Eng
lish you think would convey the
Idea. I have a 90-page guide to
right eating entitled "Feeders Di
gest". For copy send 25 cents coin
and 1 cent stamped envelope bear
ing your address.
Aluminum Kitchen Ware
I make enough cereal for two
feedings for my baby, and let It
stand all day In the aluminum
double boiler In which It was cooked,
In the refrigerator. Some say this
Is harmful. (Mrs. A.M.)
Ans. It Is all right. Aluminum
ware la as sanitary or healthful as
any other dish for cooking or keep
ing any kind of food In. Have used
It In our kitchen for many years.
We don't take the propaganda of
obscura "apeclallsts" seriously.
Club Foot
Tour lodln ration has helped me
more than the nine doctora I had
consulted for chronic sinus trouble.
. . . Youngest brother contemplates
marrying Into a family In which
club foot seems to run In cycles.
(Mrs. M. L. D.)
Ans. Club foot la not hereditary.
It Is merely a congenital defect or
delay In development of the foot
that Is, development ceases or Is
retarded before It Is complete. No
known cause. It may occur - In any
family. Every Infant Is club-footed
a month or two before birth.

Rlbbentrop, believed that tha war
deadlock must be broken somewhere.
He Is supposed to have gone so far
as to prepare the necessary army
orders, and it Is known that on
November 18, emergency rations were
Iwiied to the German divisions chos
en to lead the Invasion of Holland.
But after a sharp argument with his
generals. Hitler changed his mind
and tore the orders up.
The escape was also narrow last
January, even before the Invasion
of Prague. At that time, aa In No
vember, Hitler's diplomats pressed ,
the Belgians for a promise of neu
trality if Holland was invaded. More
over, the Belgians, doubting the Eng
lish and French readiness to aid
them, then seemed almost ready to
give In. For a fortnight, the foreign
offices and bourses of the world
shivered with secret apprehension
(for this crisis was not much men
tioned In the pre). A blitzkrieg
against Holland was seriously feared
until the Belgians would not give
the desired promise.
Now the situation Is seriously com
plicated for the Germane, both be
cause Belgium Is thought much more
likely to hold by her previous stand,
and because Italy and Turkey are
both Intimately Interested In the
Balkan situation. Wherever the at
tack comes, If It does come, the war
will probably spread far beyond the
country actually Invaded.
On the whole. It seems most prob
Able thst If there Is an attack It
will be against Holland. Geography
Is Important here. Holland Is a rough
parallelogram, with the big corner
of the North sea almost nipped off
between the mouths, of the Rhine
and the end of the Zulder Zee. This
corner la the citadel of Hollaed,
containing meet of the countT'e
Industry, the si most Important
cities, and the potential air bases
against England which are the real
Herman objectives. The Dutc.h war
plan Is to retire Into the citadel
corner, opening the dykes to flood
the neck of Isnd between the Zulder
Zee and the Slhlne mouths. The
time for an auark on Holland is
very short, therefore, since the brief
European winter Is passing, and a
thsw Is at hand.
The attack In Uie east Is even
more problematical. The nusaians
would be expected to Join In It. Since
the Russians want Bessarabia and
Bessarabia wilt soon be a sea ol mud.
the time Is alao short In the a.
Moreover. It seema unlikely that the
Oenvanti wru!d attempt such an at
lack without bringing up their me

In The
Day's
News
By FRANK JENKINS
TTODAY'S most startling (NOT
most important) news:
-Seventeen members of an or
ganization calling Itself the
"Christian Front" are arrested
in New York by the Federal Bu
reau of Investigation (G-men)
and charged with plotting to
overthrow the government of
the United States and replace it
with a dictatorship.
THE DAY was set for some
where around January 20.
1
TTHIS Is significant:
The revolution was to be
brought about by seizure of com
munications (telephone, tele
graph, radio), transportation sys
tems (railroads, bus lines, etc.),
customs and post offices. Terror
was to be inspired by the assassi
nation of members of congress,
The plan was that when the
people of the United States re
covered from the shock of sur
prise and fear they would find
the machinery of everyday liv
ing in the hands of the revolu
tionists. t
IT was a crackpot idea, of
1 course; and it WOULDN'T
have worked here.
We have seen it work in Italy
in Germany, in Spain, etc., but
the American people are a dif
ferent breed of cats. Instead of
tamely " submitting to dictator
ship when they found their con
gressmen murdered, their trans
portation and communications
systems seized and their cus
toms and post offices in the
hands of the conspirators, they
would have come out from under
the shock FIGHTING MAD.
The would-be revolutionists
wouldn't have lasted long.
gUT
DON'T FORGET THIS:
the effort should ever be
made to bring fascism or com
munism or any other of the nu
merous "isms" to America, it
will be by some such scheme as
this one said to have been un
masked in New York.
It won't be BY THE BALLOT
t
DELGIUM and Holland are vir
" tually mobilized, with a mil
lion troops along the German
border. All leaves for British
soldiers on the western front
have been cancelled. New ru
mors are out that Hitler is plan
ning to strike at Britain and
France through the relatively
unprotected low countries.
This is the logic of the situa
tion: If you wanted to get some
where and the shortest road was
barred by a high fence, you'd
try to get AROUND THE END.

end of the Maginot line fence.
