The Cantonement Problem
Well, apparently ONE battle is over, and the
victory won.
That is the local battle for an army cantonment
in the Medford area.
The war department at Washington at least has
OFFICIALLY announced the start of construction.
We can't believe, there will be any "presto-changeo"
disappearance act THIS time 1
THE Mail Tribune has favored the construction of
a cantonment here, for one specific reason, and
ONLY one.
Because we believe ita benefit will EXCEED its
burdens. That does not mean we haven't been aware
all along, there will be burdens, at times extremely
serious and even painful ones.
B
UT, after all we still
Judging the effect of World War No. 2, by World
War No. 1, this community without a single war bene
fit of any kind, and at the present rate of business
decline, has been headed for a major economic catas
trophe, and the break not very far away.
The construction and operation of this cantonment,
should, and we believe WILL, avert such a col
lapse and tide the community successfully over a
VERY critical time..
THERE is another point
Because there was a strong local effort to secure
this cantonment, and all political pressure avail
able was brought to bear there will be a feeling in
certain quarters, that it was this high-powered tech
nique that finally won the day.
That just ISN'T true 1
In fact those best informed regarding what really
happened, could make out a case that such pressure
really delayed, rather than accelerated the final de
cision. MO, boys and girls, the war department, like any
" other branch of a true democracy, can't ENTIRE
LY ignore the political factor, and doesn't, but it
also doesn't build army cantonments, in that way.
(And thank Heaven it doesn't, for a war conducted
on a political pressure, pork-barrel basis, would not
only be a shameful war, but a LOSING one!)
JEDFORD was selected for an army cantonment,
AT1 in other words, for just one reason, because in
the OPINION OF THE WAR DEPARTMENT, it
became the best site for one at this particular time.
That's all.
We don't wish to take any credit away from the
local Chamber of Commerce or any of its officials.
Ihey have done a swell job, especially in the direc
tion of preparing this community, materially and
morally, for the time when and IF the cantonment
should come. And there was nothing improper in the
exertion of what political pressure was exerted, on
the ground that while it might do no good, it could
do no harm. It isn't Medford's way to leave any stone
unturned 1
DUT the fact remains, the political pressure exert-
ed did little if any good; the war department
decided upon Medford, not because of it,
only because the exigencies of the war situ
ation demanded an extension of army training on
this coast, and Medford was the best site for such
tiaining. not fiom the standpoint of wjiat this com
munity wanted but from what the government and
the war department NEEDED.
WHICH brings us to our final point:

suited for this groat purpose, Medford happens to
be among them.
Isn't there a certain obligation, both from the stand
point of good citizenship and of patriotism, to un
complainingly acquiesce in that decision, even though
the burdens may be many, and certain by-products
even extremely irksome?
We believe there is.
And as time goes on, we believe this important
fact should NEVER be forgotten!
"Who Is Nervous Now?"
That was a rousing fighting speech delivered by

CHEMOTHERA
Since the development of
drugs of tha sulfanilamide
group interest in chemotherapy
(treatment o f
disease with
chemical sub
stances) has
increased more
than a t any
other time
since Ehrlich

old timers will
recall, at first
pur ported to
Dr. Brady cure syphilis
with one dose. As It became
evident that salvarsan would
not cure syphilis in one dose,
in six doses, in 40 doses, al
though It was and is a useful
remedy In the treatment of
syphilis, medical Interest in
chemotherapy cooled down,
perhaps too much.
A serious drawback about the
administration of sulfanilamide,
sulfapyradine and sulfathiazole
in sufficient doses to subdue or
stop infection is the tendency
of these chemicals to destroy
red corpuscles and produce
alarming anemia. Notwithstand
ing this risk, physicians find
that the judicious use of these
drugs, with the patient under
constant observation and prep
arations at hand for transfusion
of blood if necessary to combat
the grave anemia, seems to
bring recovery in cases that un-'
der ordinary treatment would I
probably terminate fatally.
The blood of a flu patient
during the acute illness has no
protective power against flu,
but blood or blood serum taken
after convalescence from the
acute illness has such remedial
or protective power. As yet,
however, no vaccine, serum or
antitoxin against the flu has
been found of practical benefit.
At University of Pennsyl
vania research workers have
succeeded in photographing flu
virus by means of the electron
microscope. Whether this step
in advance will lead to develop
ment of an effective vaccine or
serum it is Impossible to fore
see. The best prophylactic and the 1
best remedy we have against
flu and grip at present is qui
nine, in my opinion. As a time

Hitherto we have been com
pletely at a loss to account for
the action of quinine as a pro
phylactic and a remedy for such
illnesses. Since the efficacy of
the sulfanilamide group of
drugs against such diseases as
meningitis, pneumonia and
types of hemolytic streptococcus
infections has been established
it seems reasonable to ascribe
the protective and curative
value of quinine to similar ac
tion that is, quinine probably
renders blood and tissues un
favorable for the growth of the

not antiseptic or germicidal. In
other words quinine prophylaxis

Washington, D. C. Jan. 7.
No one in the national capital
will be surprised if one of these
days it is announced that a
naval base has been established
within 1000 miles of Tokyo and
that preparations are under way
to bomb the Japanese capital
and set fire to the teeming
metropolitan areas of Nippon.
The bombing may be the first
Intimation that an American
base has been located on Siber
ian soil not Vladivostok, but
on Kamchatka, only a few hun
dred miles from the air and sub
marine bases now under con
struction in the Aleutian islands
which string out in a southwest
erly direction from Alaska.
Every ton of material for bar
racks and food for men; equip
ment for forecasting weather,
anti-aircraft guns, bomber
planes, troopers, mechanics and
laborers, will be shipped out of
Columbia river and Puget sound.
Prior to December 7 it was in
tended to send supplies for Rus
sia out of these ports and unload
them at Vladivostok. Maxime
Litvenoff, Soviet ambassador
(he landed in Washington, D. C,
almost at the hour Japanese
were attacking Pearl Harbor)
has not been discussing the
weather at his frequent White
House conferences. From a base
on Kamchatka a flying fortress
could reach cities in Japan ia
three or four hours and return
in the same length of time; a
day's work, the time a bomber
now takes in crossing the Atlan
tic for delivery in England.
Getting the materials to the
Asia base will be hazardous.
Enemy submarines are operat
ing off the southeastern Alaska
coast, roughly about 2,000 miles
east of Kamchatka, and through
this area patrolled by the enemy
the fishing fleet must pass in
early spring to enter Bristol bay
where the chief salmon catches
are made. The fishing fleet,
(carrying tin, cannery workers
and food supplies) goes from San
Francisco, Astoria, Seattle and
passes Unalaska upon which is
the great Dutch Harbor base,
already costing the United
States $15,000,000. The cannery
workers have been Chinese, Jap
anese and Filipinos. This year,
if the fleet can get warship pro
tection, there will be no Jap
anese engaged for the fishing
season.
CHIEF of fish and wildlife
service, Dr. Ira N. Gabrielson,
former resident of Oregon, has
taken up the matter of naval
protection with his boss. Secre
tary of the Interior Ickes; to
gether they are discussing the
situation with navy officers.
Lending support are the lease
lend administrators, who want
canned salmon for the British,
and Secretary of Agriculture
Claude Wickard, also Interested
in sending food abroad.
If the Japanese submarines
continue active from Kodiak
island to the Juneau area the
Alaska fishing season may be
abandoned. Kodiak is another
great air and navy base now
under construction where labor
ers are paid gold-rush wages.
Dr. Ales Hrdlika, world famous
scientist of Smithsonian insti
tute, who has been excavating
on Kodiak island for several
years, says the earliest Immi
grants to the North American
continent had one of their first
settlements there; probably 6000
years ago.

ONLY way of reaching Alas
ka from the Pacific northwest is
by steamer or airplane. Some
ten years ago Senator McTtary
of Oregon Introduced a resolu
tion for a highway, resulting in
an international highway com
mission of which Representative
Magnuson of Washington is the
chairman. Nothing has been
done to build the road, despite
repeated requests of the com
mission, indorsement of the pro
ject by Secretary of War Henry
L. Stimson and a proposal by
Magnuson that $23,000,000 be
appropriated for the work. In
the meantime, and very recent
ly, many millions have been ap
propriated to building highways
in Central and South America.
Last week OPM arranged to
purchase the output of one of
the largest known chromite de
posits in the western hemi
sphere. It is located in Alaska
and operated by residents of the
northwest. The ore, after it is
concentrated at Juneau having
been shipped 1000 miles to reach
the smelter will be sent to
Seattle and Portland, where
stockpiles are being arranged.
To protect these shipments OPM
requires the assistance of the
navy. The chromiU must be
brought in, for it is now among
tha scarcest ores required in the
steel industry. (Stockpile for
Oregon chromite being estab
lished at Coos Bay).
