"Which suggests the thought:
Why doesn't Portland inaugu
rate a similar event, to com
memorate tome important date
In the city's history? For one
thing, there are hundreds of
Portland men who would wel
come an excuse to let their
whiskers sprout. Many man
goes through life without ever
having the opportunity to
decorate himself with facial
foliage. For men, a two or
three months' respite from the
dally battle with the razor
would be a real blessing."
The favorite outdoor pastime,
of quite a number hereabouts,
as the war rages In Europe Is
stretching the truth until next
Tuesday, and permitting their
imaginations to play. This comes
under the head of "free speech,"
and free mudslinglng. There is
nothing that can be done about
this gossiping hysteria. It will
have to die of Its own cussed
ness.

Onlv a month ago, for
with a well-known Portland manufacturer who had
recently returned from a six weeks' swing around the
circle, to New York City and back.
We asked him what he found the prevailing senti
ment to be in the East, regarding the war in Europe.
"I found just one overwhelming feeling among all
classes," he replied, "that was for this country, at all
costs, to keep OUT of it ! Never heard a good word
for Germany, never heard anything else for the allies;
but above all and before all the unanimous and over
whelming sentiment was against this country becom
ing in any way involved in it."
In elaborating further, the Portlander said :
"Even the pro-British house of Morgan opposes partici
pation In this European war, direct or indirect. I, had a talk
with Thomas Lamont and while expressing the strongest
possible sympathy for the allies, he said it would be a na
tional catastrophe for this country to get into it. More
over he was convinced that we could give far more effect
ive assistance to the allies by staying out of It; sending over
our planes and tanks, than by becoming Involved our
selves, and thus having our own defenses the primary con
sideration. He maintained this was the view of the present
administration and the war department."
That was only four or five weeks ago !
And this change has been brought about by one
fact, namely: the sudden realization that if the war
goes on for the next four MONTHS as it has for the
past four WEEKS, Adolph Hitler will be in complete
and undisputed control of western Europe.
.
MO ONE in this country, or practically no one,
outside of the German Bund and the Communist
party wants that.
And everyone, or practically everyone, is eager
to do whatever needs to be done to prevent it, even
to the extent of entering the
mat war alone can do it!
TTHE more objectively and realistically one delves
" into the problem, however, the more probable it
appears that Mr. Lamont is essentially correct.
Because of the urgency of the present crisis, and
the supreme importance of
doubt true that concentrating upon material aid to
the allies would contribute
ing Hitler, than becoming
the war ourselves.
And that is the thine
DONE! For unless it is done, and that quickly, any
neip this country might give the allies, via a more
thorough-going "preparedness program" would, in
all probability, be too late.

by Winston Churchill in his
of Commons.
This was a most remarkable speech in a number of
ways, but in none more so than the appeal for assist
ance from the United States.
According to press reports, Mr. Churchill's origi
nal speech contained a very direct and very dramatic
appeal for American help, but upon the advice of his
colleagues this was toned
indirect one, as follows:
"In the unbelievable possibility that the British Isles
were subjugated the Empire and the fleet would carry on
until, in God's good time, the new world with all its power
and might steps forth to the liberation and rescue of the
old!"
From such a source at such a time, nothing so very
indirect about that, for in the New World only Ahe
United States COULD step forward to England's
rescue with "POWER and MIGHT."
m m m
1M0RE0VER, had that appeal come from the Brit-
ish Prime Minister only six weeks ago, it would
have raised such a storm of indignation and disap
proval in this country that any real aid from this
country might well have been delayed for a year or
six months.
For then the feeling against becoming involved in
this war was so strong, the sentiment so general that
the allies would try to get this country involved in
1940 as they did in 1917. if propaganda could do it;
that any such appeal would have immediately de
feated its purpose, and in all likelihood resulted in a
new lease of life for the late and unlamented "isola
tionist bloc" in congress.
DUT not so today! "
" In fact, even more urgent and outspoken appeals
for American assistance were made at the same time
in the British and French press, the same cabled to
this country, but to date, no unfavorable reactions
have been reported.
The plain truth is, the
whole, are overwhelmingly
sistance to the allies, the
cisely wnat torm that assistance should best take.

THY IT Olf THE DOC, X ALWAYS SAY
My husband, a frightfully
nervous man, writes Mrs. B. E.
M., has taken quinine, one grain
daily, at my
:T"1 suggestion and
he has become
calmer, and
with colds all
around he has
been well all
winter. My
son, u s u a 11 y
with fever
sores on his
lips from colds
has had none
the past win
ter, thanks to
quinine, altho he had two or
three mild colds. I reasoned
that if quinine steadied the
nerves so well as in my hus
band's case, it should help a
condition I've had since the 'flu'
of 1918 a skipping pulse. So
I started taking one grain a
day, and it has done wonders
for me. Since starting it I've
had little or none of that bother
some irregularity of the heart
beat, which no medicine the
doctors prescribed up to now
had overcome. The doctors all
said it came from a nervous
condition of the stomach. I

Not a bad idea, that. If you
contemplate taking medicine try
it first on the occupant of the
dog house.
Here is a quotation from a
famous textbook of therapeutics,
concerning quinine. "In cases
where prolonged mental or
physical strain is to be under
gone, quinine in the dose of two
to four grains (daily) will often
prevent exhaustion and support
the system."
About thirty years ago quini
dine, obtained from cinchona
bark as a by-product in the
manufacture of quinine, and but
slightly different from quinine
in composition, was used to some
extent as a substitute for qui
nine, as it was then much
cheaper than quinine. Then in
vestigators found that quinidine
was especially efficacious in cor
recting an irregularity of heart
action which physicians call
auricular fibrillation which
means the aurical, instead of
contracting regularly and pump

IMAGINE a fierce, sharp-claw-ed
couwar stalking, a buck
and a hungry coyote looking
on from the brush, twitching
with eagerness to sink its fangs
In the buck's juicy flch.
In that simple situation, tht
cougar is Hitler and the coy
ote Is Mussolini.
THE situation in Europe, at
Ihi. mnmrnl l.n'l nnllA that
simple. I
The buck has been unexpect
edly tough and resourceful (as
in Flanders), getting out of bad
corners in ways not anticipated.
n ith his houfs and horns he
has even Inflicted nasty gashes
and bad bruises on his vastly
better-armed adversary. He is
fighting desperately for time,
and if he gains enough of it
he may be able to get away.
So the cougar signals fran
tically to the coyote for help.
While he holds the victim at
bay, he wants the coyote to
slip In from the rear and ham
string the buck.
"REEDY hunger goads the
coyote mercilessly His Jaws
drool. But his coyote brain
urges cautiun. He wants the
cougar to make the kill, so that
he may come hi and fcart
SAFF.LY on the remains of the
carcass.
IF YOUR imagination is suf-
ficiently vivid ta follow this
situation, you will have a per
fect picture of Mussolini sitting
behind his Alps with slavering
Jaws and chattering coyote
teeth, waiting for the moment
when the buck Is near enoun
dt-ad for him to rush in and
appear to give help to the cou
gar without taking too nuicn
risk himc!f.
MOW go a ttep farther. Im-
agine, if you can, what a

ing its blood through the valve
into the ventricle merely quiv
ers or twitches ineffectively and
in consequence the ventricle
beat or contraction is incom
plete so that the pulse skips a
beat.
Many individuals, taking qui
nine for other purposes, have
noticed that it tends to correct
such irregularity of the heart.
I have a sneaking notion that it
may be quite as efficacious as
its twin alkaloid in that respect.
Three grains a day would be
a fairer dose of quinine to try
for a few weeks, in any case of
"skipped pulse" or dropped beat
or irregularity of heart action.
After the irregularity is cor
rected perhaps a grain a day
over a period of several months
would maintain the effect.
Small daily doses (up to ten
grains daily) of quinine are
mildly stimulating to heart and
circulation, and tend to increase
the number of red corpuscles in
the blood. Hence it is one of the
few drugs which the layman
may use without risk of un
toward effects.
