Time to Buy Seals
IT is quite natural that our gaiety this Christmas
will be somewhat tempered by the sobering knowl
edge that suffering and distress have visited so many
of our fellowmen. The very fact that WE are exempt
from tyrannies and terrors of other lands that we
enjoy freedom and security in America should
bring humble and sincere gratitude.
Yes, we should be thankful, but it should be "thank
fulness of those who cannot feast until they have
given to the hungry." This Christmas, we may add
immeasurably to our joy by lending a friendly hand
to those ''ss fortunate. We can extend some assist
ance to i ose abroad, and should certainly do so.
Wartime problems and restrictions, however, make
this sort of "good neighborliness" difficult indeed.
. . . .
DUT we've a field of service right here at home.
"The annual Christmas Seal sale is now underway
in Jackson county. And, since Christmas is the season
for giving, why not give one of the most precious of
all gifts HEALTH to those in our community,
state and nation?
That is exactly what we do when we buy these
little Christmas. Seals, for proceeds from their sale
are used to combat that dread public enemy tuber
culosis. COME have considered this a "conquered disease."
It is true that great strides HAVE been made in
the ceaseless effort to curb tuberculosis, but let us
look at the record. Within a brief period of three
years 1937 tc 1940 it killed more Americans than
all the wars the U. S. has fought since 1776.
Conquered? Indeed not!
Civilian air raids took a toll of 36,000 men, women
and children in England during a ten-month period
in 1940-41. During the comparable period, tubercu
losis accounted for 50,000 lives in the United States.
No, it is far from being a "conquered disease".
Certainly, every step to curb tuberculosis, such as
this yearly Christmas Seal sale, is definitely a part
of our national defense effort. We cannot afford to
be complacent.
REGON has been more fortunate than many of
her sister states. The national tuberculosis death
rate is 45 for every 100,000 living persons; here in
Oregon the ratio has been cut to 28. Favorable cli
mate and freedom from crowded tenements and
factories are unquestionably factors in the steadily
dropping death rate in this state. More important
yet is the effort put forth in Oregon's determined
battle against the disease. Health groups, such as the
Jackson County Public Health association, have ap
proached the serious problem with skill and under
standing. IT is a matter of pride, here in Jackson county, that
OUR association is recognized as one of the finest
in the state. By all means, we must see that ample
financial support is given to this group so that the
time-tried, effective program will be continued and
broadened.
This job of curbing tuberculosis costs money.
Those who have the disease must be sought out and
cared for, X-ray pictures are necessary, quantities of
milk must be purchased, clothing and other items
are often needed. Important, too, is the "follow
through" program, which has won for the local asso
ciation so much well-deserved recognition. The
CURED patient is given a kindly boost back to nor
mal living and shown new avenues for social useful
ness and personal security.
.....
pERTAINLY, these attractive seals, with their fa-
miliar little Lorraine Cross, should become a fcym
bol of OUR generosity of our spirit of neighborly
helpfulness this Christmas.
So let us be sure to add Christmas Seals to every
letter and package and with them spread HEALTH
while we spread holiday cheer. H.G.

HOLD EVERYTHING TILL THE DOCTOR COMES
Surgeons first recognized and
now physicians generally know
that the chances of a patient to
survive an at
tack of appen
dicitis are best
if the patient
has taken no
physic in the
early hours of
the attack.
The old be
lief that a good
physic, laxa
tive, cathartic,
purge tive of
one kind or an
other was ad
visable as a first aid remedy In
acute bellyache or "indigestion"
or upset from "something he ate"
was based on the notion that the
physic removes, drives out, ex
pels or "eliminates" from the
"system" the irritant or poison
responsible for the trouble.
Then, too, there was a vague
fancy that certain physics, not
ably castor oil and even olive oil
in large quantity had a soothing
effect on inflammation. The lat
ter fancy served to reassure some
deluded folk who had disturbing
doubt as to the advisability of
taking a presumably harsher
physic in the emergency treat
ment of bellyache or "indiges
tion." Of course no physic drives out
poison or eliminates anything
from the system, the blood or
tissues, that is, anything more
significant than salt and water.
All a laxative or cathartic can
do is hasten the passage of the
food residue along the aliment
ary canal and its evacuation from
the body. I repeat here with all
possible emphasis and earnest
ness and I mean this literally,
Mr. and Mrs. Wiseacre it
doesn't matter In the least, so
far as actual physical health and
wellbeing may be concerned,
whether the food residue is evac
uated yesterday, today or tomor
row, notwithstanding what all
the quacks and nostrum mongers
of the past have taught about
this.
Any physic, from the "mild
est" laxative to the most drastic
purge necessarily irritates, other
wise it could not hasten peris
talsis (onward wave movement
in the alimentary tract) and
evacuation. Don't deceive your
self that "bland" olive oil or sim
ple castor oil is an exception
to this.
Any physic which works at
all inevitably stirs up the portion
of the alimentary tract Involved
in inflammation of the appendix.

Stirring up this section of the
tube when it is Inflamed is likely
to spread the inflammation to
a wider area or to neighboring
structures. This means that the
physic converts what might
otherwise be a localized appen
dicitis into a spreading or gen
eral inflammation of the bowels
peritonitis.
As long as appendicitis re
mains appendicitis, inflammation
of the appendix, the victim's
chance of recovery is excellent,
operation or no operation. But
If the inflammation is aggra
vated by unnecessary irritation
and by agitation, so that it
spreads to a wider area, then the
victim's chance of recovery is
distinctly lessened, even with the
benefit of early operation.
Moral: Hold everything till the
doctor comes that is, if nature
does not rule otherwise. Abso
lute rest, no water, no food, no
medicine, above all no physic,
but external application of heat
(or ice bag if you prefer) for
whatever relief or comfort that
may give, is the sensible and
safe treatment of any acute bel
lyache or "indigestion," if any
treatment is required before
medical care can be given.

Kelly's
Comment
From Washington
Timber Control
Bill Seen Threat
States Deprived
Of Authority
Chiseling Claimed
On Iron Price
Br John W. Kelly
Washington, D. C, Nov. 26
Every member of the legislature
of Oregon and Washington,
every state official, every com
munity club in those states will
soon receive a printed copy of
proposed legislation (now in the
senate committee on agriculture
and forestry), with an analysis
of what timber owners think of
the measure. It Is supposed to
be legislation to implement the
report of the Joint committee on
forestry which held hearings in
the northwest in 1939. Timber
owners assert the bill will, it en
acted, force them to go out of
business within a few years and
their holdings be surrendered
for non-payment of taxes.
The draft of the measure was
shown only to five members of
the Joint committee before Sen
ator Bankhead introduced it,
and these were Democrats. Sen
ator Worth Clark of Idaho and
Rep. Walter M. Pierce of Oregon
were the only westerners who
were given a peek and it is be
lieved that none of the five read
the 100-page bill. Since last
April the measure has been in
process of evaluation by a group
of smart young lawyers in the
department of agriculture and
not. even Secretary of Agricul
ture Claude Wickard knew what
was going on he was never
shown the bill for the small
group of "liberals" In the forest
service have their own ideas on
national socialization of private
owned timber. (Dies committee
lists a few forest service top
hands among the 1,124 "reds"
who sponsored the appearance
in the national capital of a well
known Mexican communist.)
...
BRIEFLY, the bill is too elab
orate and in detail than to do
more than touch the high spots,
but the purpose is to place the
department of agriculture (where
forest service is now) in com
plete control of all timber in
private hands and remove from
the states any control whatever
over the forests. The "liberal"
lawyers have already prepared
bills to be introduced and pass
ed by the legislatures of Oregon,
Washington, Idaho, etc. The bills
provide for an administrator to
see that the regulations of the
federal government are en
forced. Pay of the administrator
is on a 50-50 basis; state pays
half and the government half.
The first set-up will be ap
pointed by the governor. After
three years the secretary of agri
culture can say to the states that
he is not satisfied with the state
operation and appoint his own
administrator and advisory
board. Thereafter the secretary
is in complete control through
his administrators and advisory
boards and the states have noth
ing to say about the private tim
ber. If the secretary approves of
the administrator named by the
governor it amounts to the same
thing: an administrator who sees
eye to eye with the secretary.
...
THE secretary of agriculture
issues the regulat es which mill
operators must follow or a pen-alt;-
Is imposed (least fine
S' 0,000) and the measure speci
fies that the secretary can pre
vent the shipment of this "hot
timber," although no penalty is
imposed on the railroads. The
mills are penalized for violating
any one of a long list of items
and the secretary can make it so
tough that mills will be forced
out of business, and if they own
timber let it revert to the state
for taxes. The state has nothing
to say, and for the first three
years will pay for the privilege
of seeing the forest service give
orders and longer if the secre
tary Is content with the cooper
ation of the state and does not
put in his own administrator.
States will have more than one
administrator; one for each dis
trict Washington might have a
half dozen and Oregon as many
more. All these, of course, will
be following orders from an in
side group in the national capi
tal using the secretary of agri
culture as the "front."
Director of the budget says
that to enforce the bill, as It is
outlined, will cost taxpayers
$50,000,000 a year. This stagger
ing sum would not be regarded
as too much by President Roose
velt if he feels as keenly on the
subject of regulating private
timber as he does on public
hydroelectric power. Normally,
'the budget would turn thumbs
down, but the budget director is
a creation of the president and
must take orders from above.
...
REPORTS of chiselers on the
price schedule of steel and iron
scrap In Oregon have caused
OPM to decide on opening an
I office In San Francisco next
i month to see that prices are en
forced. There appear to be some
chiselers in Washington and
j California, too. No explanation
is made as to who does the chis
eling. OPM is depending upon
! Junk dealers to pick up the old
: steel and iron on the farms and
i sell it at a fixed price to steel
i mills. Proposal of WPA to dig
up the tons of streetcar rails in
mar.y Oregon towns has met
with cool reception; the rails
are paved over and the cost of
excavating them would be more
than the rails would bring even
at the present fancy prices.

Lights
By Jessie Ann Adams
Last night when all was calm
and still,
I drove to the top of a well
known hill
To view the innumerable lights
aglow.
Of a thriving city far below,
Lights of a busy thoroughfare.
Lights that dim and lights that
glare,
Lights in office, store and home.
Lights in a stately church's
dome,
Lights within the city hall's
tower
That illumine the clock which
strikes the hour.
Lights in the streets, so gay
and bright,
Silent sentinels of the night.

Appeals for federal grants and

today as first steps to clear away
debris left by Monday morning's
disastrous fire which wiped out
the business district were being
taken.
Army patrols guarded the re
maining business area as bull
dozers scraped wreckage in a
chill north wind and permanent
residents began laying plans for
a new business district in this
southern terminus of the Alaskan
railroad.
