That new world will be man, or little group of men, overturn and destroy it, than in this state of Oregon, any one man or group of men are able to overturn and destroy this commonwealth, because they have murder and greed in their hearts and six guns on their hips. JN other words, we believe the world that Woodrow UiTasn Knf tef ut-ill of linn In of k tinl ized, that if nothing else, the strongest instinct in the human race, the instinct of self-preservation, will pro duce it Several vital things must be done before that can be accomplished.

PHOSPHORUS AND MACNESIUM In a healthy body han 99 nr rnt of thel',i pounds of phos phorus and 70 per cent of the !' ounces of magnesium are c o n t ained in the bones, and in the teeth. The remainder enter into the composition of the soft tissues such as nerves, m u t c 1 es, or gans, along with the other ele ments, and also enter Into com position of various fluids as well as the blood. The calcium and phosphorus, at least, contribute to the strength of bones and teeth, and the bones and teeth become a storehouse for these elements and perhaps for mag nesium too, on which the body draws when the Intake la Insuf ficient to meet the daily require ments. For example, the require ment for calcium and phosphor us la considerably increased during pregnancy, and if the expectant mother's intake of cal cium and phosphorus la insuffi cient to meet the demands of the growing fetus, the reserve In her bones and teeth will be drawn upon, perhaps to the detriment of her health. This explains the tendency for the teeth to crumble or decay dur ing or following pregnancy. There la a slow but constant metabolism of bones and teeth, that is, the calcium phosphate is undergoing exchange or renewal of material, as long at the bone or tooth is alive. Laymen gen erally assume that once bone or tooth la formed it remains as immutable as so much stone or concrete. Dentists sometimes be tray a similar naivety when they scout spontaneous healing or caries (natural filling of cavity). Since most foods containing much calcium also contain phos- pnorus ana magnesium, In ap proximately the proportions these elements have in the body Itself, if we get enough calcium in the dally diet we need not worry much about the other elements. It is now well known that adequate Intake of vitamin D, vitamin C and vitamin A is Portland, Ore., Aug. 19 A recognized trait of Oregon peo ple is self-depreciation. Oregon's climate is unsurpassed, It is a healthful state, it has every kind of recreation, but there are few rich people less than a half dozen who can be rated as rich there is little venture capital In the state and there has been a disposition to resent Invest ment of outside capital to devel op the state. Natural resources which would cause Californians to boast cause. Oregonlana to yawn. This ho-hum attitude has extended to Oregon's public men. It required the nomination of Charles L. McNary as vice-president on the Republican ticket to cause Oregon to discover that its senior senator had a national stature. CRITICISM of Senator McNary in the paat came from Republican party chlrfUlna, not the rank and nie. Although McNary was elected Umo after time he waa not popular with many of the leadera.

Iron metabol ism, however, seems to depend on the intake of some entity of the vitamin B complex. Perhaps these or other vitamins are con cerned with the assimilation and utilization of other elements, but our knowledge is not yet sufficient to warrant positive conclusions.

That is a comforting thought and in times such as these a little mental comfort is as heart ening as water and food in the desert. THIS writer, of course, expect ed to like Willkie's speech. Long before the Republican convention, Wendell Willkie be gan to loom up in the minds of a lot of us who had tried in the beginning to BELIEVE IN ROOSEVELT (but had found the task an impossible one) as a man of destiny. Emphatically, he was not a STUFFED SHIRT. He seemed to be an independent thinker. Obviously he had courage. His face appeared to be turned to ward the future. The only use he had for the past was to draw useful lessons from its mistakes. His mind seemed capable of for getting the good old days and looking forward to better days than ever to be achieved on the basis of WHAT IS NOW rather than on' the basis of WHAT HAS BEEN. He loqked good, and from the moment of his nomination this writer has expected to vote for htm. DUT up to today, in Elwood, Indiana, when he opened the doors of his mind and his heart and showed the people of America what was therein. Will kie has BEEN A SYMBOL. His personality has been a PRO JECTED one projected to us through the medium of the print ed word, the camera, the radio. There has been always the dis turbing thought for those who wanted to believe in him and to support him that perhaps this projected personality might not actually portray his REAL SELF that possibly our thinking about him had been wishful thinking. For this writer, his speech of acceptance, with its plain and convincing note of sincerity, is as heartening and reassuring as the sight Qf camp to a hunter who is hopeful that camp lies in the direction he is following, but can't be absolutely sure until he sees the light of the fire. THE CAPITAL PARADE By JOSEPH ALSOP and ROBERT KINTNER (Continued from Pag On,) - and Minister of the Interior George Mandel. Reynaud and Mandel actually pleaded with Bullitt to stay on, telling him that there was no French official capable of taking charge, that the interregnum between the government's departure and the German occupation would be a period of grave danger, and that he must therefore take over, Bullitt agreed to do so, but only on condition that Mandel order the Paris police and fire men, who had been expected to follow the government, to re main behind. When the govern ment left, Bullitt was In charge, with unofficial powers over the whole city he loves so well. as PVEN with the police and fire men at his orders, however, Bullitt did not have an easy problem on his hands. During the Interregnum in Paris, the French communists broke away from control of their Nazi allies. There were estimated to be sev eral hundred thousand of them in the working class suburbs, and their secret radio station, whose calls were picked up by the Paris police, was broadcast ing messages urging an immedi ate uprising. There was no way to deal with the communists, ex cept to maintain a careful police watch for signs of trouble, and to wait until the interregnum ended.

When he acceded to the request of Reynaud and Mandel, Bullitt had supposed that he would be able to communicate with the German high command by radio. But Just before leav ing, the French general staff had ordered the destruction of all the radio broadcasting facili ties in the citv. The secret facili ties of the fifth column, of course, were not avanaoie to Bullitt. For a erood manv hours, while members of his staff toured the forsaken city on watch duty, Bullitt remained at the embassy trying frantically to establish some kind of telephonic 'contact with the outside world. The need was desperate, for if the Germans could not be warned how to enter the city peaceably, the most disastrous conse quences might ensue. Then hap pened one of those ridiculous but fortunate accidents which do, sometimes, rescue situations, even situations of great gravity and importance. s IT was Impossible to get thru to the outside world from Paris. But it was not impossible to get through to Paris from the outside world, as Bullitt sudden ly learned when a call came through from Minister to Switz erland Leland Harrison in Berne. Harrison was calling about a trivial passport matter, of all things. Bullitt seized the telephone, and dictated to him a message to the German high command, describing the ar rangements made for receiving the German armies, urging that the occupation take place in the least disruptive way possible, and politely warning that almost the entire American embassy staff was still in the city to act as the eyes and ears of the out side world. Bullitt's simple plan was to notify all members of the Paris police at the city gates to be on the look-out for advance detach ments of German troops, and to order the police to report the Germans' arrival immediately. He suggested that if the first German detachment to arrive would simply collar the first policeman they saw, contact could be established and details of the occupation program set tled forthwith.
