B C- Ye Smudge Pot s-lth Olive Barber Oregon's brilliant woman eol umnUt, ol tha Eugena News, as a GUEST CONTRIBUTOR Maybe you can micceufully head a committee, sponsor a "City Beautiful" project, win in an open tournament of golf but If you don't know how to let a hen, why you re not aucn a much. Not that I'va ever head ed a committee, not ttlrred my townsmen to a panting eager ness over beautifying the city. And ai for golf, well I've made It a life policy to have no truck with golf. Infinitesimal calculus or the dlalectable world-plan. But I do know the rudiments of letting a hen. First, of course. In setting a hen, the basic requirement is cooperation on the part of the hen. Before you can set her, she must have developed an almost fanatical desire to set. Never waste your time, and eggs, on a biddy who knows about her feminine rights to change her mind. But if she's pent several days in passion ate attendance on a china egg (or a potator or a gourd), you ara warranted in assuming her urges to set have properly "Jellied.- In selecting the eggs upon which ihe is to set, there is one law; probably made by the Medes and Persians; at least it's unalterable. Always place 13 eggs under the hen. Thirteen or 16 eggs under a hen Is un luckier than walking under a ladder. Too, tha Inter the vintage of these eggs, tha better Often, lacking ona egg, have I stood before a supposedly laying hen, waiting for the oval necessary to round out a IS setting! And "wait," was about all I could do. A hen about to lay an egg won't be bribed Into haste; won't be scared Into it, either. Nothing so smug as tha face of a hen which knows you are waiting for her to lay. She knows she has you In her power Finally depositing tha coveted oval, sha shrieks in derision and the lord of the flock sup ports her with ribald Jeers and struts. The setting now rounded out to a complete IS, you get the bluing bottle, shake it, use the cork to mark dote of hatching on each egg. This naming tha data may later prove to have been presumptuous on your part; likes as not only 12 will hatch. And once, 18 chickens hatched out of, I swear, but IS eggs. With a prudish horror of scandal, I've never before let this be made public. I'd thought from the first that hen was a wanton huzzy. Of course, the rule of 13 does not apply to Juliette, the ban tam hen. Set her on IS Ply mouthrock eggs, and, come the end of the 21 days necessary for hatching, you have to dig her out from under a batch of defunct eggs from which the desire to amount to something has long since departed. Well, we've "set" the hen and. tha laws of biology being what they are, In three weeks' time bits of fuzzy down will emerge, their eyes bright with innocence. One wonders how an old rogue of a rooster and a bunch of termangent mothers can beget such adnrables.

Cm stall TriouM a ant eda. The President's War Speech ! A17HAT was wrong with President Roosevel't Lab " or Day speech? It was a GOOD speech, and as is always true of the President's radio efforts, ingratiatingly and effective ly presented. Vet if it did not exactly fall flat, it did fail to arouse any enthusiasm, in this part of the country, or appar ently in any other. NOW after reading the text of the address, we are even more puzzled. For the President sums up the case against Germany excellently. And he did unquestionably speak for an OVERWHELMING MAJORITY in this country, when he reiterated the determination of the American people, to do every thing in their power to crush Hitler and his Nazi forces. Also what was said about the vital importance of labor, is entirely true, and appropriate for labor day, as well as the start of the third year of the war. A ND yet, we doubt, if the feeling in this country, or abroad, was changed in the slightest degree by what was undoubtedly nearer an absolute U. S. de claration of war against Germany, than any former utterance from the White House, since World war No. 2 started. And if that opinion is correct then of course the speech was a failure, for its sole purpose was to increase and intensify the war feeling in this country, and strengthen war morale abroad. THE only explanation we have been able to dis- cover to date, consists of two counts: First, the matter of timing. If the same sort of rous ing declaration had been delivered six or eight months ago, it would have been far more effective. Second, the absence of explicitness, the continua tion of generalities, the refusal of the President to put all his cards on the table and take the people COMPLETELY into his confidence. IN other words, does this determination on the Presi 1 dent's part to defeat Hitler and Hitlerism, mean employing the U. S. navy in Atlantic convoy duty or doesn't it? Does it mean, the seizure of bases in Africa, or in the South Atlantic or doesn't it? Does it mean another American expeditionary force, or doesn't it? Does it mean the shipment of gas, oil and munitions to Russia via Vladivostok or doesn't it? Finally, does it mean a shooting war, or merely a continuation of a "supply war;" this country not ent ering as an active belligerent, but serving as a vital supply base? I TNLESS we are greatly mistaken the American peo pie would like to know the answers to all these questions. No doubt the reply from Washington would be, that to answer them at this time, would not be to the public interest. In other words for the President to put all his cards on the table, take the people entirely into his con fidence, would be to reveal America's hand, give important information to the enemy, etc., etc. If that is true, then of course, it can't be, and shouldn't be done. BUT, until it IS done, until the people, ALL the people of this country, are given all the salient facts we fear the effort, To secure that national unity and fervor of spirit which is so desirable in this world war crisis, will re main an extremely difficult task, U. S. War Morale THE success or failure of any particular speech is not important. But we do feel, the spirit of this country is extremely important. And while there is no doubt an overwhelming ma jority of the people, want to is consicieraoie ciouui, tney are m any mood to do what must be done, if that is to be brought about And what must be done, can only be done, by creat ing and sustaining a UNITED fighting spirit. THAT is why as we see it, giving the people all the facts as far as that can be done has become so important. For if they are not GIVEN the facts, the facts which will bring home to them, the real dangers threatening them and their country, no united fight ing spirit is possible. I TAKE this matter of army why is the army morale low 7 Because the rank and file of the armv, can't believe, this country is or ever will be, in REAL danger. With the center of the conflict on the other side of the world, there is no reality to all this war talk, as far as they are concerned. They dismiss it as allied pro paganda or plain politician's pap. And there won t be. until someone tells them the "facts" of life so to speak, or until Hitler has con quered Europe, and the western Hemisphere's num ber is actually up. when it will be too late. With the proper publicity and tmth telling, this misapprehension could be eliminated. Until it is eliminated, the risks of failure in Ameri ca s war effort, are great. Portland.

OUT AND THEN IN AGAIN Speaking of "immediate den ture service," that is, preparing and Installing plates or the like immediately alter extraction of the teeth (be- fore the pa tient leaves the office), a den tist says, in the May, 1939, Jour, of the American Den tal association: Some of the advantages are elimination of the humiliat ing edentulous period, less oain the denture acting as a sDlInt to protect the gums and the clot, less change in muscle and other structures to accom modate to chewing without teeth, less alteration in appear ance of face from tongue spread ing and cheeks falling in, more perfect setting of the artificial teeth in the positions of the teeth that have been lost. Another dentist discussing the subject observes that he has been practicing and advocating immediate denture service for many years and he has yet to hear a single valid objection to it. The latter dentist should lake a trip to Chicago sometime. The Chicago Dental Society frowned fiercely upon me when I sald'in this column recently that "Com petent dentists Install plates, not temporary plates, but the plates the patient will wear perma nently, immediately after ex traction of the teeth." This, declared the secretary of the Chicago Dental society, simply is not the truth. Let me quote further from the article above mentioned: "There can hardly be adverse discussion as to the advantages that a patient derives from the Insertion of dentures (plates) the instant teeth are removed." I have before me a high stack of dental journals and recent dental textbooks which amply back my assertion about this to which the Chicago Dental society took such unfortunate exception unfortunate, I mean, for the professional repute of dentists who do not keep pace with modern developments of their craft. In the October, 1938, issue of the same official organ of the American Dental association an other dentist, describing the technique of immediate denture service says: During the eight years that I have made them, less than a third have been refitted.

In other words. In two-thirds of the cases the plates installed immediately after extraction of the teeth have been as "perma nent" as any plate could be. A business man I know, who had all but three or four of his remaining teeth extracted four years ago, attended a dinner party wearing his new plates the day the teeth were ex tracted. No one noticed that he had lost his teeth. He has worn the immediate dentures, as the dentists call 'em, uninterrupt edly ever snice and never had any refitting or other changes.

Kelly's ' Comment From Washington Lumbermen Make Good Showing Henderson Plana To Boost Price Social Security Adds To Cost By John W. Kelly (Note: During tha absence of Mr. Kelly on vacation his daily column will ba written by Mr Paul Dunham, member of our Washington, D. C, staff). By Paul Dunham Washington, D. S., Sept. 2. Reports on the public hearing in Portland when statements were received regarding a ceil ing on the price of Douglas fir lumber, and which hearing at tracted the big and little oper ators of Washington and Ore gon, are trickling into the na tional capital. They are steno graphic reports taken by the West Coast Lumber association; rough notes made by partici pants and, in the main. It ap pears that the lumbermen made a good showing of their case. Leon Henderson, of OPACS, has had his agents watching the lumber prices for several months and he decided that the time had arrived to step In. His present campaign affect the en tire lumber industry of the two Pacific northwest states, but does not touch the transporta tion lines, the chief beneficiaries of the extraordinary demand for lumber. In abeyance, for the time being, is the demand for higher wages by the unions. Aside from the mill operators and a few labor leaders, the average resident of the north west has failed to grasp the transition taking place in the industry, although it affects either directly or Indirectly the business blood stream from the grocer to the workman. e THANKS to the federal mar itime commission which has almost denuded the coastal and intercoastal steamship business, most of the lumber moving out of Washington-Oregon territory goes by rail. The lumber is Dreaking Into the eastern mar ket where the minimum weight is a 50.000 pound load, and the rate is 82 cents per pound. Most cars carry 70,000 to 100,000 pounds capacity, the average being 80,000 pounds. At the 82-cent rate the carload means $636 to the railroad. Before the maritime commission interfered this lumber went from the northwest mills by boats to eastern markets at $16 per thousand, or $11 cheaper than the railroads are charging on freight alone, which is $27 per thousand. The wholesaler adds a couple of dollars for handling the account and the retailer adds a few dollars for hauling from the yards to his plant. r,. , ,u Mi a ..... i .i, . kiu . i I m ,he M wi probabI . y approximately $60 per thou sand. What Leon Henderson sees Is the price to the customer. Ig noring the railroad freight charges, he is going after the Douglas fir mills and places a ceiling on what the mills can charge. If they can sell for less, he thinks it a good idea. It de veloped in the hearings that th sawmill which must buy its logs is worse off than the company which has its own logs, for logs are going up and the difference between the price paid for logs and the finished product is the maximum the company can collect. There are many mills in this predicament and their number is increasing as the timber disappears and they have cut their holdings. On Ihe other hand, the little mill which buys ... ,u, Ac irrr,- ations yet can sell at the ceiling which l intended to curb prices of the hid operators. At first the small mill operators feared they would be injured by a ceil ing, but as the hearing progress ed they dicovered that they will be in clover. j-'i.uu.i laDor in tne mills --s pmi, on--., 7. ntrrrm nf the emn uvea yo i. common labor.

Skilled and semi skilled workers are desertina ,ne Sawmills for War industries so that the cost sheets show that while tha operators ara taking In more money most of them axe making less than formerly. Under the various social se curity laws, payroll taxes, it costs a mill employer In Wash ington about 80 cents a day (a little less in Oregon because Washington has a couple of taxes not levied in Oregon) for the privilege of hiring a worker at 75 cents an hour or $6 a day. Operators argue that paying common labor a minimum of 75 cents an hour does not re flect the actual cost for on top of the daily wage must be in cluded the various payroll taxes which, in round figures, are ap proximately 10 cents an hour, and all of which are paid for the benefit of the individual worker. Secretary of Labor Perkins does not consider these payroll taxes when talking of wage of workers in the lumber industry. News Behind The News By Paul Mallon (Continued Prom Page Ona) still good for reconnaisance and meeting tanks of their own weight but they cannot even stand against a .37 millimeter gun. Mass production of these tanks is not going to get any body any where against Nazi opposition. The publicized production fig ure on this type of tank the only one we are getting in quan tities sounds good, but does not mean anything. e a THE medium size tank Is what is needed, the 26 tonner, which will eventually weigh about 30 tons. British military officials have said, as a result of the lessons of the Russian campaign, that any Invasion of the continent will require 50.000 tanks most ly mediums, some large. Well, we produced about 50 of these mediums last month, the first month of mass produc tion. It will be the end of 1942 before we produce 1,000 tanks a month. How long will It take us to produce, say. 40,000 me diums needed? Four years at lease on the present schedule. CIRST, and right now, the British need heavy bombers. Mr. Roosevelt has tried to throw all i the pressure possible into bomber production, but it will be June, 1943. before we are producing 500 heavy bombers a month under the existing OPM schedule. We will only average 30 to 40 a month for the re mainder of the year under the existing OPM schedule. The Nazis are now producing 200 a month according to figures cur rent in this government. The British have the men ready to fly these ships. Their aviation school in Canada is the talk of all who have seen it. They have doubled their flier production schedule twice since the training fields started. But with 30 to 40 big bombers a month (not all of which they will get) they will only be able to annoy the Nazis, not to pay back the attack on London. e e a CROM what little of this I have r been able to gather here, the officials who made this pro gram, are spending most of their time trying to convince Mr. Roosevelt they were right in all they have done. They are al ways trying to justify them selves and Uieir actions, rather than devoting their thought and energy to keeping up with an ever changing war situation. ! They have limited their goal to their former decisions. I It looks as if they will have j to lift their frozen vision, or officials with a wider vision will have to be brought in. The War Today By By Dewitt MacKenila Special Writer We ought to hear a bit more from the Tokyo government be fore attaching too much finalitv to the rather fiery declaration I by a spokesman of the Japan iese army that Nippon will if I necessary use force to fight her way out of what she terms en circlement by America, Britain, Russia and other nations. This statement was broadcast i by Cclonel Mabuchi. chief of .the army press section of im ; perial headquarters, who assert ed that Japan was determined to carry out her Asiastic program even if it meant "a long-term iwar aealnst Britain and Amrr ica." Now that is very blunt language and It would be a mis take to underestimate Japan's determination in this crisis, j Still, one suspects that the co!erel was blowing his trum pet not so much with the idea that the Wall of Jericho would fall as that ha might strengthen Japan's hand In the projected negotiations in Washington. Had the colonel and his mili tary superiors been better ad vised as to the present temper of the American government toward the Japanese maneuvev in the Orient, probably tif fighting speech would have been left undelivered. However, It perhaps will do no harm. Indeed, soma observers thought President Roosevelt may have avoided reference to the far eastern situation in his Labor day broadcast in order to give diplomacy a chance to achieve an agreement. The weakness of the Mabuchi statement to my mind is that if the United States, Britain and Russia were trying to encircle Japan, she would have small chance of fighting her way out by force. The encirclement which Japan fears is quite as much economic as military. You may destroy an enemy warship with a 16-inch gun. But a shell won't demolish the fact that if Japan gets herself In volved in a war with the United States, Britain and Russia sha will cut herself off from essen tial supplies and from trade, upon which her very life di pends. Few would doubt the bravery of the Japanese in battle, or their ability to absorb punish ment. The cold truth is, how ever, that no matter how great Nippon's determination might be, she couldn't fight her way out of the encirclement, be cause forsooth there's no place to which she could fight her way. The countries whose coop eration she virtually needs right now are, first, America, and after that Britain. By the way: Muscovites and Hitlerites today continued to issue conflicting claims of the disaster being inflicted on the other fellow. The significant point of this bloody conflict, however, is that there apparent ly has been little movement of the battle front for some da This means that the time is approaching rapidly when the Germans will find themselves forced to fight a winter cam paign unless they can break through the Red front in tha very immediate future. The mere fact that the nazis had to maintain a battle line in Russia would represent a major victory for the allies.
