My Dear Mr. Willkie: I have listened several times lately to news casters comment ing on your challenge to Mr. Roosevelt to meet you in debate in this re-election campaign. I have been greatly concerned, s our president is a very busy man, and really he iust can't take time off to debate with you. So, in view of the extraordi nary circumstances I hereby of fer and agree to substitute for Mr. Roosevelt. Now don't get excited; I have ample qualifica tions. First, like yourself. I know nothing at all about poli tics, but I'm willing to learn at other people's expense. Second, I am entirely unknown, the large majority of people who are ac quainted with me will scratch their heads In bewilderment and try to figure out who I am. Third, I know only what I hear on the radio about international affairs and as for national af fairs, well, to tell the truth I don't know any more about them than you do. Fourth, my time has but little value, worth about as much as an old setting hen's, as compared to the president's. Fifth, I am a native born American, a world war vet. I am six feet 1 inch tall, weigh 207 lbs., wear an 11 shoe and size seven hat, so you can't say I've got the big-head. I believe this is an excellent iden (from my point of view) as Mr. Roosevelt can devote his entire time to affairs of state and you and I could have a swell time getting acquainted and tour ing the country. Yours very truly. Morton C. Buel BUICK IN LEAVE FOR PREVIEW OF NEW 19JJ0DELS R. A. Skinner, local Bulck dealer, and Hubart Price, sale manager, with O. V. Myers and Harris Janes, members of his re tail sales organization, left for Seattle today to attend Buick's Northwest sales convention for a preview of the new Bunk models and to hear Buick's manufacturing and sales plans for the 1941 season. More than SOU Buirk dealers and salesmen from all sections of the northwest will attend the Seattle meeting, which is si-hcd uled about a week in advance of the public presentation of the new Binek cars. Speakers at the convention will include Harlow H. Curtice. Iiuuk president: W. F. Hufstadcr, general sales man ager: Charles A. Chayne. chief engineer. A. F. Belfie, director of merchandising, and Arthur Kud ner. chief of Buick's advertising' counsel, who are coming from the Iiuick factory headquarters al Flint. Michigan, specially for the meeting. Mr. Skmner said that Buick m 1P41 will launch the largest and most apgressive sales pro gram In the company's history with a minimum nhlrctive of 300.000 car, wnicli i substan tially above tui- vmrs ull tiine high of 83,000 Buicks. Insulting! CO that's it! If you don't toe the chalk-line on November Eth and mark your ballot for "four more years of Roose velt" you are a TRAITOR ! ! Secretary Wallace didn't eay that in so many words, but he might as well have said it. That was the inescapable implication of all he did say. MOREOVER, there is no escape. 1T1 Messrs. Willkie and McNary may be just as loyal, just as patriotic, just as pro-American and anti-Nazi as Messrs. Roosevelt and the distinguished speaker. Even so, that will make no difference. A vote for the Republican candidates THIS YEAR will mean a vote for Hitler. A vote for the Democratic candidates will, mean a vote against Hitler. The Democratic vice-presidential nominee doesn't BELIEVE the American people will "turn their backs on the man Hitler wants to see defeated, the "un yielding Roosevelt," and HIMSELF 1 IF they do, well, they will vote for appeasement, for a divided and a doomed country, for a German conquest of the United States, a fate in this great democracy identical with the fate of France ! A CTUALLY, had that shameful and incredible ap peal under the guise of patriotism, to the fears and hatreds of the American people not been con finned by the press reports this morning, we would have concluded that what we thought was a, broadcast from Des Moines by Henry A. Wallace last night had been a nightmare, certainly the scholarly and ideal istic former Secretary of Agriculture, whom both Re publican candidates had gone out of their way to praise and defend, could never, even under the stress of partisanship, descend to such depths as that ! But there were the words last night, and here they are again, the same words, on the teletype this morning. Fail to vote a third" term for Franklin Delano Roosevelt and wittingly or unwittingly, you are a Fifth Columnist! llH AT has happened? ' "Upon what meat does this, our Ceasar, feed?" Can this be our once meek, mild and somewhat mystical apostle of the ever-normal granary, of "peace on earth, good will to men?" Henry Wallace, in his first effort for an elective office, seriously maintaining that to be loyal to this country, one must vote for himself and his adored "Messiah" and for four more years of the Roosevelt New Deal? The thing is incredible to those who don't know the "master mind" behind this shocking utterance. It isn't so incredible to those who do. But it May Work!

But he was not at all averse to having his faithful "Boswell" do it, as he was not averse to having Donald Duck Ickes the other day dig up and throw the dirt. m TOR it's good politics, IF IT CAN BE MADE TO 1 work!

A CASE Of Midwest reader making the circle tour reports from hia stop over spot on the coast an in struct i v ex perience) with blind piles: Thirty years ago I had what was called typhoid fever and apparent- 1 y recovered fully. Some years later I began having dizzy t p e 1 1 1 and headaches. M y appendix was removed, and later my gall bladder. Blood tests at various times gave no clue to the cause of my headaches. Doctors could find no cause or remedy. Then about five years ago. after one of my occasional In testinal infections (so-called) . . . the blood test showed undulant fever. I've had several serum treatments with severe reaction at first, also several sulfanila mide treatments with mild re action. But headaches continue every six days or so, as before. Recently my doctor said: "I wonder If what you thought was typhoid 30 years ago was not undulant fever Instead. To make sure, I took a ty phoid serum treatment and had a severe reaction. The doctor thinks that is further evidence that I have had undulant fever for 30 years. Whatever it Is, my trouble incapacitates me more or less, but can do light work. Last winter I began having lame back, could do almost no work, and of course laid it to my pet undulant fever. Then came an article of yours pointing out that internal or "blind" piles sometimes are the cause of "lame back," "sciatica" or 'lum bago." I showed it to my doc tor, and on examination with speculum he found several fair ly large hemorrhoids. He sent me to a specialist in . . . who charged $10 for an examination same as my own doctor made for S3. The specialist said he would fix me up for $150 plus incidentals. (Hum, incidentals seem to complicate the case in various waysl. Back to my own doctor and offered to be his first guinea pig if he would try your in jection treatment. (It is not my injection treat ment. I merely recommend it as the method of choice for in telligent folk today). He agreed and cured me with THE CAPITAL PARADE Br JOSEPH ALSOP and ROBERT KINTNER (Continued from Page One.) discovered that the Red Cross had an excess of medical supplies. These bandages, surgical Instruments and the like were used in occupied Franc to care for prisoners of war under the strict supervision of the Inter nstlonsl Rd Cross. Occupied France was also aided In two minor wars, through the work of Wsyne Cbarfteld Taylor, the American Red Cross rep resentative who remslned In Paris. Taylor orderrd a small supply of milk snd cereals from the Swiss, in the first divt of the occupation, to feed the children of Paris. He also discovered outside of parla 2.000 prisoners of msr, who had not eaten In eight days. He temporarily cared for tftem with other food slso bought In Switzerland. But the Oermsns quickly cut off this supply by order ing the wtsa to refuse shipments And the Oertusn ntn command snoc let It be known that Red Croes representatives mere not welcome in the occupied territory.

They are separate countries. The situation Is different of course In occupied France. We have not yet found a solution to thst problem."

Three men who were principally responsible for the third term movement, members of the White House inner circle the palace guard have been pushed out of the picture and will not play important parts in the presidential campaign. These are Harry Hopkins, Harold Ickes and Thomas G. Corcoran, the fabu lous Tommy the Cork. By all the rules of the game this trio of hatchetmen should be riding high and having much to say about the conduct of the campaign, but instead they are being delegated to the back ground, if not entirely elimi nated as political strategists, and this with the consent of Mr. Roosevelt himself. Whatever hope they may have entertained of guiding the course of their chief was shattered when Edward J. Flynn. new na tional committee chairman, in sisted as one of the stipulations of his acceptance of this Job that he was to have a free hand, run the show as his own Judgment dictated and not be hampered by White House insiders; also, that whenever it is necessary to consult with he president he, Flynn, should have the heart-to-heart talk with Mr. Roosevelt personally and not have the con sultation siphoned to him by any of the palace favorites. To these stipulations Mr. Roosevelt con sented and in doing so he po litely gave his closest advisers the air. However, Hopkins, Ickes and Corcoran may participate in the campaign, but if so it will be in the background and in minor ca pacities and theirs will not be the glory and publicity which Is their legitimate due for bring ing about a convention of dele gates pledged to nominate Mr. Roosevelt fqr a third term and to vote for anyone he wanted for a running mate. Insofar as they performed this service, and with success, they are now sup planted in the actual manage ment of the campaign. Corcoran is not the favorite of the president that he was for the past seven years. Off and on. the Cork has had to take a back seat, but has succeeded in re establishing himself when his particular qualities were needed. Corcoran has not been around the executive mansion for some time. His last mission was as messenger from the president to induce Louis Johnson to return to a place in the administration after he was forced out as assist ant secretary of war at the de mand of Henry L. Stimson, the republican appointed to war secretary by Mr. Roosevelt. Tommy chased Johnson to the Bohemian Grove festivities in California. But Johnson was ob durate and is still peeved at his abrupt dismissal. (He is said to have been offered the position of assistant secretary of commerce) Around the first of the year Corcoran will resume private practice and sever his connection with the government payroll. Corcoran is a political amateur and was responsible for Mr. Roosevelt's attempt to purge senators who refused to support his court bill. The purge fizzled, as Jim Farley predicted, but de spite the display of bad political Judgment. Mr. Roosevelt con tinued to lean on Corcoran rather than the sagacious Farley. Harry Hopkins, who aJeo tinted the purge, haa rMned aa secretary of commerce at bis own Insistence, on account of hla health. Urlng tn the White House or at Hyde Park, he la closer to Mr. Roosevelt than any other man. Hopkins bossed the democratic convention at Chicago as personal representative of the presi dent. Polltlcos expected Hopkins to have a leading part In the campeign. but so much criticism wss leveled at him that he has been removed from the spotlight. Mr. Flvnn saw to that. Harold L. Ickee. first nbtneteer to publicly announce that Mr. Roosevelt rhould have a third term, and who has been principal hatchetman for the new deal, aupposed he would di rect the Roosevelt forces at Chicago, hut when he arrived there he dis covered that Hopkins was in com mand, had direct wire to the white House, and Ickes wss not even con ju:ted by Hopkins or Mr. RooseveU. To sdd Insult to Injury, tckes. who hoped to be nominated for vice president, saw his fellow cablneteer. Henrv A.

Here he was. pio neer advocate of a third term, being elbowed aside and ordered to say kind thlnga about the obnoxious Wallace.

In The : :.::Da;;f By Frank Jenkins By FRANK JENKINS THE best that can be said of peace-time conscription (Just adopted by the senate and now up to the house of representa tives) is that it is an abomina tion made necessary by PRES ENT conditions. "THE attitude of all good Amerl- cans toward peace-time con scription should be: "We will tolerate and support conscription in time of peace only as long as danger immi nently threatens and will GET RID OF IT at the earliest pos sible moment when it is safe to do so." rvON'T fool yourself about " peace-time conscription. Getting rid of it will involve a fight, just as adoption of it is involving a fight. There are many who believe that universal military training is desirable as a DISCIPLINE for Americans. This writer doesn't so believe. Military training (if it is to be effective) requires the habit of instant UNQUESTIONING obe dience to orders. It involves the idea of superiors and inferiors, with the further idea that an in ferior must not question the au thority or the wisdom of a su perior. These ideas, when forced on us in peace time, are dangerous to the American way of living. JlORPHINE, administered in ' emergencies by competent physicians, eases pain and saves lives. Taken regularly by per sons in normal health, it FORMS DANGEROUS HABITS. The same principle holds good for conscription. THE purpose of conscription is national defense against threatened danger. As such it is sound. But don't forget this: The purpose of taxation is to PROVIDE REVENUE for the le gitimate needs of government, yet in this country (increasingly in recent years) we have seen taxation used for all manner of purrjoscs from redistribution of wealth to punishment of indi viduals who get in the bad graces of THOSE IN POWER. If we permit peace-time con scription to become PERMA NENT, we shall see it similarly used to shape the nation and its destinies and its way of living according to the ideas of those who happen to hold the reins of power. So let's be very sure it DOESN T BECOME PERMA NENT. Communications Where Does Money Com From? To the Editor: I am not surprised at Mr. Dea son's letter, but I am surprised that an old campaigner like him, should attempt to argue with an editor, tut! tut! Mr. Deacon this is not done that's all. and be sides I have never known our revered editor to make a mis statement, and ou must know that he must be always on the qui vive. for critics, and often he lays nice little traps for the unwarj especially If he is in need of Carters little liver pills But Joking apart you will never find our editor make an unfair statement. I heatily agree with the senti ments expressed in your letter. The present administration has ruined more small business men than any other since good old Cleveland and god knows he was not far behind. What our editor really thinks I believe is that the Roosevelt administra tion has made more people so cially competant at fourty-four dollars per month, to the cost of many million." of dollars, it would not have been so bad if these people had been paid fair wages, and not been placed in direct competition with the busi ness man. they say of course that this money has been spent amongst the business men. pos sibly that is true in a measure, but for what? Cloths, overalls, and food they have not had any monev to buy anything else. . Will some one kindlv tell us where this money came from, it could not have come from the people, the treasury, and as yet not from the taxes, where then did it come from" If the people suddenly decided not to pay back these millions what do you suppose would hap pen? Do tell! W. B CRAUSE. Medford. Aug. 29th.
