A Return To Common Sense?
PORTLAND'S overwhelming defeat of its P.U.D.
project a week ago is a cheering sign.
For such a defeat clearly indicates a return to
sanity in the matter of the perennial electric light and
power problem, which for so many years has been a
badly battered football in partisan politics.
And sanity means, the people don't want any re
turn to the Insull doctrine, on one hand; or destruc
tion of the private power and light industry on the
other.
They DO want cheaper light and power, preferably
under private ownership, and public regulation.
.
IF private ownership refuses to give it to them, then
they will insist upon public ownership.
But only in such an emergency.
Dthpr thinca heinc at all enual. thev are in favor
of private ownership, and
i rui. i i
Dig or mue, unuer ins control oi partisan jjuuuib.
CUCH a common sense, middle-of-the-road, attitude
toward the light and power problem, on the part
of people, was clearly indicated in last Friday's over
whelming vote.
We trust the power companies won't misinterpret
this, as a green light, for a return to the good old
days,
One little move in that direction, and down they
will go, where they were a decade ago (and would
deserve to be!), less than six inches from the edge
of the bottomless pit!
The Buzzard Barometer
HTHE war reports from Europe continue to be contra-
dictory and confusing.
Here before us, for example, are the latest Berlin,
Paris and London communiques.
Berlin claims the allied armies are in the bag, all
that remains is to sew up the top, and, GOOD
NIGHT! . Paris claims, Weygand has smashed the German
lines back 15 miles, a break through is imminent, in
which case, German's coast legions will be completely
cut off.
London accepts this optimistic Paris report, as a
strong "RUMOR", emphasizes successes of the sea
and air fleets against the Germans in Flanders, and
hints a surprise for Hitler in the way of sudden British
reinforcements, via the Belgian coast
So you can pay your money and take your choice,
round and round the little ball goes, where it drops
nobody knows!
PROBABLY in such a situation the wise man will
,i:..,.n,.,l tVio PmOin Paris anr T,nnrlnn renorts
altogether, and keep his ear tuned on Rome.
Fnr it. sppms p-pnerallv arrreed Mussolini is "smart,
has access to sources of inside war information which
can be depended upon, and is vitally concerned with
onlv one thing, which side is going 10 win.
Therefore if Rome reports are belligerently anti
British, one can be pretty sure, the allies are still
getting the worst of it. If they aren't, and a note of
neutrality creeps in, one can be equally sure, Hitler's
Blitzkrieg has started to slip.
We dislike to grant anything to this loathsome
buzzard posing as a fighting cock, but can't deny, he
is probably the best war barometer, to consult,- at the
present writing.
Idle Dollars
B
ANKERS report that there are now $6,000,000,000
of idle monev in American banks. It has been
rising lately at the rate of $100,000,000 a week. All
these billions presumably could be lent and turned
to productive use without weakening bank credit.
Financial writers say it is largely a result of the
huge gold exports still pouring into the federal treas
ury and now well along toward $20,000,000,000.
That vast accumulation of gold has never been
clearly explained, and this department can't ex
plain it.
l'resumably the experts who have advised the
federal Treasury have some definite ideas about it
Perhaps they think it will be useful at the close of
the war, now in its early stages and rapidly expand
ing and threatening to extend over most of the world.
Perhaps such a stock of hard gold might enable
the United States to put together again an interna-
I tional economy shot to pieces by a long, devastating
conflict.
DUT what in the meantime are the government and
1 Federal Reserve Board and the individual banks
I around the country going to do with the vast credit
built up in their institutions? And what is going to be
; done by the business men and private investors who
; normally use bank credit to put money to work ex
panding old fields of enterprise and creating new
1 ones?
I Tin's is a question which rises far above any class
! prejudice or party politics. It may deeply involve the
j fate of our economic and political system. Idle
money, perhaps, may prove as undesirable as idle
men. Rightlv handled, on the other hand, it could put
the idle men to work. R.

A LITTLE WHEAT GERM NOW AND THEN

Without the
germ wheat is
a lifeless mass
of stare h
highly nutri
tious, as nu
tritious as sugar so far as cal
oric values are concerned, but
still not capable of sustaining
life. Most of the natural vita
min B complex of wheat Is in
the germ. A hundred years ago
all of the germ was left in the
flour made by grinding wheat
between stones, and the people
who obtained a considerable
part of their sustenance from
bread enjoyed a daily ration of
approximately 600 international
units of vitamin B, according
to Cowgill's computation. Re
fined white bread today does
not make up such a large part
of the average diet, but the
other foods which are common
ly used In its place provide no
better nutrition. As Joliffe,
quoted by Cowgill in the latter's
report published in the Jour.
A. M. A. Dec. 9, '39, express
ed it:
"It seems, therefore, that a
S3 percent fraction of the cal
ories in the American diet of
1840 containing a minimum of
600 international units of vita
min Bl has been replaced in
the contemporaneous American
diet by a like fraction contain
ing only about 50 international
units."
Nutrition authorities at pres
ent are fairly well agreed that
one must get at least 300 inter
national units of vitamin Bl
daily In order to remain free
from actual manifestations of
deficiency disease; and perhaps
600 to 900 units daily should
be provided to insure optimal
nutrition, the highest degree of
functional health and well be
ing, or what I call vite.
Wheat germ meal varies con
siderably in content of vitamin
B complex and in other com
ponents, but to the best of my
knowledge the average wheat
germ meal contains 100 to 120
international units of vitamin

Rorm mea, doe, not keep long.
That is the main reason why
the germ Is so thoroughly re
moved in modern milling to
give a refined flour which will
keep well on prolonged storage.
In order to insure the highest
vitamin values It Is advisable
to purchase wheat germ meal
fresh from the mill at least
once monthly, better every two
weeks. On longer standing it
deteriorates in vitamin value,
if not intaste and acceptability.
A man who has been trying
"to hammer genuine whole
wheat flour and cereal, to
gether with the facts relating
to both, into the minds of the
public" for many years, tells
me that if a person attempted
to eat anything like the amount
of wheat germ daily that I
have advised (four or five
ounces a day), cooked or raw,
the first ounce would convince
him he wasn't very hungry af
ter all!
Being nearly as fond of
wheat germ, raw, as I am of
plain wheat to chew, I accepted
the man's chal'enge. I'll report
later on the outcome, but
already I admit that even two
ounces is a whale of a lot of
wheat germ.

SDie. in iruin, appropriations wo iar
are probably only a quarter, and
certainly not more than a third of
what they ought to be.
Furthermore, there la no disagree
ment on this point among the presi
dent's subordinates. At the state
department, officials do not presume
to aay exactly how much should be
spent for national defense, but there
Is not one official who dissents from
th view that the danger la Imme
diate, and that every dollar necessary
to guard against It must be provided
without stint.
At the war and navy departments,
there la deep and frank concern over
the Inadequacy of the appropriations.
At the treasury, where Secretary
Henry Morgenthau Jr. la ready gladly
to find any number of billions de
manded, no one can explain the
sudden niggardliness of a president
whose fault used to be asking too
much. And among the new dealers.
It is not too much to say there Is
real consternation.
If the president had not originally
ordered the army and navy to ask
for no more than I2.M) 000 000 apiece,
the small neas of his defense esti
mates might be explained on the
ground that they were intended only
as a first Installment. Although thta
theory la untenable, he may still
be moved by the deep concern of
those around htm. and encouraged
by congress' obvious willingness to
vote any money required. Perhaps
additional defense requests will be
forthcoming.
As for the handling of th defense
production program, perhaps he will

ARMY officers are quietly aban
doning several old army posts
this year; plan to wipe out many
others. Modern warfare requires gen
erals to handle large masses of men
and have them concentrated at key
points, such aa Fort Lewis. Wash.
For this reason, and reasons of
economy, they wish to fold up the
small station and transfer the
troops to the major camps. Through
out the west are many small posts,
established In the days when the
bluecoats were fighting hostile In
dians, but as the aborigines are no
longer Interested In the warpath the
posts are obsolete.
Whether Vancouver Barracks la on
the list to be abandoned, the army
officers refuse to commit themselves.

various occasions In the past. Sena

PROPOSAL that on relief projects
local sponsors contribute 25 per
cent and the government 75 per cent
la objected to by Oregon and Wash
ington. Explanation has been made
to the appropriations committee that
except for building and utility proj
ects contributions are difficult to
obtain. In most Instances the diffi
culty Is caused by leaal restrictions,
such aa the 0 per cent tax Increase
limitation. In Washington state the
trouble la in finding contributors
for 25 per cent on white collar and
certain types of construction, a
condition obtaining especially In
Tacoma. Seattle, Everett, Bellingham
and Spokane.
For several years attempts have
been made to force the states to
assume a substantial share of the
relief burden and the present effort
In that direction Is headed for the
usual finish.
