Two Democrati, unable to

the President as amiable men

sum of $2,000,000, selling poll

Editorial Correspondence
Chicago, July 22. 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

get out, of Canada that is.

this dump, but it IS difficult to realize how many decades have

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

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.

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!

"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.

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

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

The physiological action or
function of calcium (lime) in
the body is somewhat complicat

layman, but briefly it is essen

regulation or nerve-muscular ir

normal clotting of blood, and to
maintain normal permeability

talgic footnote to the history
of these whirling times, that the
new dealers regard what hap

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

Nevertheless. It Is difficult to doubt

a conscious effort to put this theory
Into practice. The third-term move

fR. HIBBARD of Burns, an

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

into our country MANY dol

taxation it is depriving us of."

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

consumed by an antelope or a
mule deer is a mouthful taken
away from cattle, sheep and
horses. There is NO SURPLUS
of grass.

sides because he doesn't know

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

If I could paint the clouds
So folks could really see
The tints they hold of you.
My color scheme would bo
Green for that Jealous look
That glows within your eyes
Red for those ruby lips
Whose kiss is paradise.
And then I'd paint some sky,
Pink for your petal skin.
To blend it well and match
your hair.
I'd put some titian in.
Your neck a pillar white would
be.
The clouds piled up In gayety.
I'm not an artist, tho you see,
So I cannot portray
The sights I see which inspire
me
To pen these lines today.
The sun has sunk behind tha
hills,
And now the day has flown.
I know no way to hold tha
scene.
But have you for my own.
