Two Democrati, unable to iwallow the third term notion, In whole or part, are described by the President as amiable men "whose minds run more to dol lars than humanity." Just where was the mind of the chief execu five's oldest boy running when, though Inexperienced as an in surance agent, he garnered unto himself. In record time, the neat sum of $2,000,000, selling poll cies? And there are others with in the New DeM sacred circle always putting in some oraton cal licks for humanity, whose minds run not alone to dollars, but after them. News pictures show Wendell Winkle, GOP. presidential nom inee, climbing a Colorado fence, and getting all the way over. This proves he is a green hand s a politician. The Ilk, as a rule, when they reach the top of a fence, want to sit there the rest of their political lives. A SQUARE HIT NAIL (Marked Tree (Ark.) News) "Attorney General Jack Holt has ruled that there Is no legal requirement that a school director be able to read and write. We cling to the opinion, however, that It would be a decided advant age." . Juveniles and fashionable youths who have been running around without their shirts, are now as brown as nuts. The Pacific Highway, It is claimed, will never be a mili tary road as long as the diaboli cal crooked Sexton Mt, unit ex ists. It, however, should be maintained for its defensive value. A motorized foreign foe, coming over It, would sue for peace before it got to Grants Pass. One school of thought holds if there is only one In this na tion of 130 to 140 million souls, qualified to be President, it is lime to give the country back to the Indians. Another school holds the Indians have suffered enough.

To the Pullman company for reservations through Canada. Glad to get out of this hell-hole, but the prospect of a trip to Medford via the eornbelt and the Sacra mento valley, not inviting. Have to have a birth certificate to get out, of Canada that is. NOT difficult, for ye editor was born within 80 miles of this dump, but it IS difficult to realize how many decades have whizzed by since tbenl Pardon somewhat uncomplimentary terraa concerning the second largest city in the United States, but this continued beat and humidity have us down, way down. No place short of the Promised Land would be endurable in such an atmosphere, and the sooner we pet out of it the better. Think of the poor people, and we MEAN poor, living in those dirty tenements just across from the Democratic convention hall today, when it's completely stifling here on the free, airy and open lake front 1 That last night of the convention all ages were draped over the fire escapes and listening to the reports of the convention broadcasted from the loud speaker truck near the main entrance. Certainly no better evidence could be desired that there ARE thousands of people in this country who are ill fed, ill housed and ill clothed. (The latter item of no particular importance, however, and not so regarded by the victims, the fewer the clothes the better on the fire escape that final evening!) It pays to advertise. We swallowed a small one in the morn ing "Trib," extolling the attractions of the "greatest show on earth," Ringling'a and Barnum and Bailey's, directly on the lake front, with Gargantua, the giant gorilla, as a major star, and everything, including the big tent, "AIR-CONDITIONED." It was thBt AIR-CONDITIONED and Gargantua that got us, for we were genuinely curious about the latter and felt we could endure the usual circua hocus pocus with the former coming to our assistance. Well, we won't deny they had air conditioning engines pump ing whatever it IS they pump through canvas pipes, through the top of the "big top." Nor can we deny they had a dark navy blue canvaa under the main canvas to further reduce the sun's glaring heat. But if anything could have been stuffier and hotter than that tent during the 3-ring performance, we suggest old Beelzebub himself get an option on it. As such things go we don't doubt this was "the greatest show on earth," but we couldn't stick it for more than an hour. To console the Ringling Bros. if they need consoline, we might add we saw no one else in the mob who couldn't, we filed out in solitary grandeur, and the editorial tongue hanging out about a foot I But we did see Gargantua and fed peanuts to about 75 ele phants, also to one fluffy-nosed giraffe. Gargantua, by the way, gets all the best of it, he is REALLY air-conditioned, lives in what closely resembles a gigantie glass and steel ice box, at a temperature that is pegged around 75 day and night. No one can get at him, and he can get at no one, which is for tunate, for here is a blitzkrieg one. (iarga has five guards and They don't even dare feed him into a small compartment in one the door behind him, and let him freedom of a bank bandit who has locked himself in his own burglar-proof vault 1 Gargantua weighs over 500 pounds and according to one of his keepers is all muscle and cussedness. Because of the thick glass and steel bars it wasn't easy to get a clear view of the brute in the afternoon, though at frequent intervals they tuniej on the flood lights within the ice box. At night, they claim, the view is much more satisfactory. . However, we saw enough to be grateful for the steel bars and the heavy glass encased in lead frames, for a more terrifying and forbidding looking object than Gargantua could scarcely be imagined. lie doesn't resemble any apes he looks far less like a man than MOST apes, and far less like an ape than SOME men. In fact, he doesn't look like anything animal, vegetable or human, he looks like something put to gether in Hollywood, to out-Dracula Dracula, and if called upon Gargantua could certainly do it. The keeper had a pleasing suggestion, which is no doubt one of his conversational cliches, why not recruit an army of apes, put Gargantua at the head, and surprised he didn't say "Hitler" until we noticed the sugges tion of a Hamburg accent! It seems Gargantua'a favorite whole one, which he chews up, the pulp.

"Garga" was very mild when we saw him, however. he looked ferocious enough and often showed his teeth (wish we had as good a set!) but spent most of his time wiping up his cage floor with a wet rair. and then squeezing it out, and doin-r the. job all over again. He walka on all fours. on the knuckles of his tremendous hands, and never (this is the keeper's story) gets on his hind feet except when he gets mad, and wants to smash things up. Fortunately there js nothing outside of the rag and auto tire he car. smash. While we were there he started once slowlv to unlimber as if to stand up, whereupon the keeper took a handfull of his Gar gantua booklets '(which he sells for 13 cents apiece) and banged them against the glass making a terriffic SLA I. Gargantua showed no interest in this proceeding, but soon resumed his semi-recumbent position, apparentlv partiallv as a result of it. The clowns were numerous, but very disappointing. In the gay nineties and afterward the clowns had a major share in the goings-on, but today apparently they do little more than put themselves into strange costumes, with fantastic false faces, and walk or run around the tent once or twice. We dou't know what the idea is but think it a very poor one. In the old days the clowns were real artists, many of their " ... lonff flfterWAr,!

THE D and CA TREATMENT Of ARTHRITIS For many years readers have been reporting in letters to this column their satisfaction from taking various forms of calci um for "rheu matism." Fundament ally I'm skep tical of the remedial val ue of most medicl n e a If not a thera peutic nihilist, so I have gen erally credited tnese benefic ial results to Old Doctor Coin cidence. Since the recently introduced high potency vitamin D treat ment of chronic arthritis has come into wide use, with most encouraging results in many ob stinate cases, I have been con strained to abate my incredulity a Jot and a couple of tittles. Not that the high potency or massive dose vitamin D treat ment is a sure cure or even a panacea, but in a fair pro portion of cases of advanced chronic arthritis which fails to respond to other remedies or therapeutic measures a daily dose of from 200.000 to 400,000 U. S. P. XI units of vitamin D (4 to 8 teaspoonfuls of D in oil, or 4 to 8 capsules daily) for several months, appears to bring about gratifying improve ment, in some instances restor ing the patient from a crippled or helpless state to his or her normal occupation. (Details of the treatment are given In mon- agraph on "Arthritis, availa ble on request if you inclose stamped envelope bearing your address.) The physiological action or function of calcium (lime) in the body is somewhat complicat ed for the comprehension of the layman, but briefly it is essen tial for ossification of bone, for regulation or nerve-muscular ir ritability or excitment, for ef ficient contraction of the mus cle of heart and artery wall, for normal clotting of blood, and to maintain normal permeability of capillary endothelium or to diminish excessive permeability of the capillary endothelium. Best food sources of calcium for anybody are milk, cheese (every kindi, egg yolk, green vegetables, raw cabbage, carrots, turnips, dried peas, beans, nuts, peanuts, cauliflower, string beans, oysters, watercress, dan THE CAPITAL PARADE Br JOSEPH ALSOP and ROBERT KINTNER Rld by tht North Amtrican Nwtpapr Alllanc. Inc. Washington, July 24. The Issue has ceased, somehow, to seem very fundamental. Yet it is nn interestin?. if slightly nos talgic footnote to the history of these whirling times, that the new dealers regard what hap pened in Chicago as the nat ural end-product of the process begun in the famous purge. The president distressed the party hacks who chiefly composed the dele gations at the convention by forcing them to take Secretary of Agriculture Htnry A. Wallace as second man on the ticket. It waa loudly charged, both by antt-Wsllsce delegates and anti-new deal observers, that the president's motive waa to "new deal iee" the Democratic party. The new dealers, speaking for the president, cheerfully answer guilty to this charge. New deal I r ing the democracy waa precisely what they hoped for from trie purve. and now they are In the comfortable frame of mind of a man who feels he lost the first battle but won tht war. Purely domestic American historic processes are likely to b. aborted St ny moment, these data, by the ; brutal Impact of event, abroad. I Nevertheless. It Is difficult to doubt thst for whst It la worth th. new dealers' view la correct. j The 1938 purge waa represented at the time, as a purely frivolous i grsb for power. Tr-la was a halt 1 truth. Behind the purge waa an j elaborate political theory, best eet do-n In Professor Harold Lass.1 a : "The American Presidency." a book J which may be deacrtbed as lAskt'sl brilliantly assembled recollection, of talka with the president.

Any one with arthritis or, if you prefer, 'chronic rheu matism" should dismiss from his mind any delusions or fan cies he may have about "acid" in any such food and include these calcium-rich foods in his daily diet as a simple matter of good nutrition and good health. The dally requirement of the body is estimated at about ten grains of elementary calcium for the adult, at least IS or IB grains for the child. Only one-fourth of the cal cium present In food is or can be absorbed or utilized the other three-fourths of It Is ex creted in the feces. Remember that vitamin D is necessary for absorption and utilization of calcium. Acidity in the small intestine also favors better ab sorption and utilization of cal cium. QVESTIONS AND ANSWERS.

The remedy la to bring congreaa and the presidency Into line to gether, by a aharp party realignment which wilt make the president's .eld ership of hte party in congress far surer and firmer than It Is at pres ent. Thus the theory. The 1038 purse, atarted at haphazard In a moment of presidential Irritation with the re bellious aenate. ended by becoming a conscious effort to put this theory Into practice. The third-term move ment originated among the new deal ers at almoat the sams time as the purge. Undoubtedly, there la some thing accidental in what the new dealer, describe aa "the end-reeult." For Instance, your correspondents are convinced that If tha Republi can, had not named WendeU Winkle, the Democratic nomlnea would have been Cordell Hull, an old-Una Demo crat, rather than the president. Also. ) there Is little question that the prea Ident'a Insistence on Wallace a. his runnlna mste waa partly ue to a perhap. sub-conscious feeling that the vlc-presldentlal nominee mlslht Inherit the bfe Job. Tet the fact of the "end-reautt la there. The new dealer, can claim with some justice that realignment has come, when the Democratic ticket la headed by the leader and another member of their faith, one of whom is an ex-Bepub-llcan. while the Republican ticket la composed of two anti-new dealer, the most ardent of whom 1. an as Democrat. Tha new dealer.' thought 1. that everythlne; In tha Democratic party Is now wlihtn their grasp. They say that they will take control of the national committee machinery, carry out the reorcsntratlnn of the party during the campaign, and make the realignment permanent before elec tion time. Prom a practical stand point, thla prcsrram probably bodea rather well tor Wendell Wlllkte. As it happens, however, there seem, to be little likelihood of the program hemg put Into effect.

AT Hait Mountain, In Lake " county, there Is a great antelope reserve some 270.000 acres of it. Over in the corner of Nevada, roughly 100 miles away, there is another antelope reserves the Sheldon. Over in Harney county, a great bird sanctuary is being restored and burlt up. These large-scale wild life protection projects retain or PUT BACK land and other physical property In the hands of the federal government and REMOVE them from local tax ation. That raises a question of con siderable economic importance: Are they good OR BAD for the communities in or near which they are located? fR. HIBBARD of Burns, an ' intelligent, thoughtful and TOLERANT citizen, long Inter ested in wild life, a former member of the Oregon game commission, said to this writer the other day: "The Malheur bird sanctuary, which has already absorbed one of our great ranches and is ab sorbing another, is putting back into our country MANY dol lars for each dollar of local taxation it is depriving us of." So far, he explained, the dol lars that have been put back are CAPITAL dollars that Is. money expended for the build ing and development of phys ical plant. Later on, the in Come dollars will begin to roll in. The income dollars will be largely the money spent by tourists, hunters, etc. ALREADY, with the aid of the CCC, a highway to make these orojects available to the general public has been begun. It will cross the im mense Hart Mountain reserve and pass the Malheur bird sanc tuary. When completed, it will be a by-pass from the highway and railroad routes such as the Old Oregon Trail and the Union Pacific to the highway and rail routes that parallel the coast and the Sierra and Cascade mountain ranges. Even now, plans are hazily In the making to stop bus and rail travelers at say Ontario and take them across this great country of the open spaces to say Klamath Falls or Medford, giving them a day or so in the fascinating REAL west. Pro vision for this Shuttle trip would be made In round trip tickets by bus or rail. These plans are nebulous in the extreme as yet, but they show what men whose business is vacation travel think of the possibilities (from the tourist standpoint) of this vast south eastern Oregon country whose wide deserts grip with the thrilling fingers of romance the hearts of nearly all who see them. DLEASE do not feel that this r writer is beating the drum for these new ideas that if rea lized are bound to change so greatly the economic face of this area. Every acre removed from the open range is an acre TAKEN AWAY from the livestock in dustry. Every mouthful of grass consumed by an antelope or a mule deer is a mouthful taken away from cattle, sheep and horses. There is NO SURPLUS of grass. This writer isn't here taking sides because he doesn't know now whether these new ideas too- EOT mdd AT EVERY SPEED that are takL.f root and the still hazy development plant! that are beginning to take neb ulous shape around them will be ultimately good or bad for this country. This effort is merely that of a reporter who is trying to inform rather than LEAD. ZOOMING events cast their shadows before them, and already these new possibilities are casting a shadow not very plain as yet, but clearly per ceptible. You can see it in the stakes and the preliminary con struction on the road across Hart Mountain. You sense it in this talk of shuttle service for tourists. We'd better be doing some thinking about it, so that we may be ablo to deal with it in telligently when it comes face to face with us. AT THE National Capitol WITH John W. Kelly CONTINUED PROM PAOI ONI power he will discuss himself during the one of several speech es he plans, but Willkie's own views will be awaited with in terest. Democrats, such as Walter M. Pierce of Oregon, are pre paring to attack Willkie on his testimony in the hearings on the holding company bill. IN the new deal camp all is not 'serene. There is a rumor that Charley Michelson, pastmaster of "smear," is to ue eased out as chief propagandist for the na tional committee and replaced by a super-new deal columnist not noted for his accuracy. New dealers, as distinguished from Democrats, are in complete control and believe they can run the campaign successfully with out the aid of men who have de voted a lifetime to Jeffersonian democracy. The new dealers are depending heavily on the po litical machines and local bosses, such as Kelly's machine in Chi cago: Hague's in New Jersey: Flynn's in New York; Guffey's in Pennsylvania. They are after the states with the largest num ber of electoral votes. Mr. Roosevelt is confident he has the labor vote and colored vote. He looks to Henry A. Wal lace, secretary of agriculture, to bring the farm vote into camp. TtUSRl la In existence .nd may ba produced during the cam paign, a letter written by President Roosevelt In which he expresses a low optnlon of Secretary Wallace, and a high opinion of Harold Ickea, hla secretary of th.
