The Fight At Home While America is battling the. axis aggressors, there is another fight right here at home which de mands the attention of the nation. It's the fight against infantile paralysis. The importance of an all-out effort, both in in dustry and in army and navy ranks, has awakened this country to a new awareness of the danger of such an epidemic malady. We must hold it within bounds keep it out of our army camps, away from our armed forces and from the vital home front as far as it is humanly possible. THE annual President's birthday party and the March of Dimes have, as everyone knows, accom plished wonders in fighting the dread disease. We must not relax our efforts at such a critical time. We realize that there have been many necessary campaigns to tax the family budget, some of which are on a continuing basis. The Defense Bond and Stamp campaign is one, another is the Red Cross. Thus far these campaigns have been successful and must continue to be. The vital necessity of caring for children victims of this dread infantile paralysis must not, however, be overlooked. It is so highly important that healthy children and grown-ups too be protected from its ravages. . a e HTHIS crippling disease, which leaves its victims "neither dead nor alive," has entered more than 26,000 American homes during the past three years. This fact, in itself, should be sufficient to arouse united public action. While only those who have suffered from infan tile paralysis can actually know the pain and misery and tragedy that it brings, all of us can imagine and that is quite enough to assure full and generous cooperation in this 1942 campaign. THE March of Dimes is now underway; the Presi- dent's birthday ball will be held in Medford next Friday evening, January 30th. A portion of the funds raised here will, as usual, remain at home to aid us in our own unending fight against infantile paralysis. . Let-us make certain that this year's appeal for funds to sustain the work of the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis enjoys the same whole-hearted community support always accorded such worthy ef forts here. H. G. Kelly's Comment From Washington. D. C Priorities Order In Plane Travel Rabbit Brush May Supply Rubber Congressmen Vote Selves Annuity . Br John W. Kelly Washington, D. C, Jan 27. Probably 50 percent of the peo ple from the northwest coming to the national capital on busi ness board a plane In Seattle or Portland and are whisked to Washington in a matter of hours. Instead of days on the railroad. There ara business men of that area who travel from 800,000 to 800.000 miles a year, visiting the capital al most every month; transacting their business, or preferring to return home rather than wait for some bureau to make up its mind. Now all of this sky-travel is out. A civilian now cannot obtain a seat In a plana (transconti nental or local) unless a long list of preferred passengers do not want It. Just another pinch of the war. No. 1 priority for a seat in a ship Is assigned to Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt, wife of the president. No woman In the country flies as much as Mrs Roosevelt and very few men, and despite her patronage the airplanes would prefer that she take a train. An accident to a plane with tha First Lady as a passenger would be bad adver tising. Aside from the White House personnel, the accommodations of commercial lines are com mandeered by the army and navy Only when no one of the priority list wants a seat ran Mr. Citizen go aboard. Here after, for the duration, few will be the lumbermen, ship opera tors, industrialists, hop men fruit dealers, ship builders and state or city officials arriving In the national capital by plane. There are dark hints that some day the cltitens will wake up and discover that the govern ment has taken over tha com merclal air lines as well as telephone and telegraph sys tems and, later the railroads and truck transportation. Priorities for space on freight trains are now being studied: ran be looked for In a matter of months, and the high priorities will be given to war materials, broken down Into classifica tions. From now on civilians and civilian needs will stand at the end of the line. a a H. H. TOLLEY, of the bureau of agricultural economics has a report from Dr. T. H. Good speed, botoniit, and Dr. H. R. Wellman, agriculturalist of the University of California, declar- MEDFORD MAIL lng that the backyard of the Cascade mountains is the habi tat of a fair quality of rubber. This rubber is found in the plain, old-fashioned rabbit bush, which is abundant from eastern Washington, through eastern Oregon, Idaho, Nevada, Utah, Wyoming and other open spaces of the far west. Tons of the bush are now ready for harvesting and : processing. The report modestly estimates tha amount of this rabbit bush rubber at 2S0.0QO tons. The scientists ex plain to Mr. Tolley that the bush can be processed and the rubber produced at a cost not to exceed twice the price of the Malaya rubber. This makes the price high, but when there is an emergency the matter of price is secondary. investigation Is. now being conducted in the northwest to determine good spots where a large dandelion can be grown for rubber. This matter has been assigned to Dr. George Hyslop of Oregon State college. WHILE caninnliln tnrhu. publication of the quota of each state lor trie selective service, Secretary of War Henrv Stlmson says that 1.800,000 will be taken into tne army this year and the 27 Infantry divisions will be Increased bv 32 the three-regiment, or triangle, type. Care is in h vrM.1 k local boards In classifications. A man with dependents, it Is hoped, will not be called this year, being deferred until later. ine oepenaents" must be de pendent upon the selectee and what he earns. Being married after he Is called does not qual ify a man for deferment. A married man who has a wife with an Income of her own and which she uses to provide for the children is not in the de ferred class. If the married man Uvea from a trust fund he can be taken Into the ranks as the fund will nrnvlrio far .ir. children. A dependent must be in fact a denenHant hfnn ha can have his call deferred. Local ooaras will be quite particular doui tne definition, and monkey business. a CONGRESS has voted Itself an annuity: provided social se curity for all members who hold omce at least five years.

Addreat Or. William Brady, tea El Caraloo. Beverlj Hills, Calif. SOMETHING YOU CAN Number 1 of tha Little Les sons in the Way of Health series, as well as Number 1 of The 7 Keys to Vita Is SAVE YOUR TEETH. I chose that as the subject and title for the booklet (67 pages) not by chance, but because It is my considered opinion that conserva 1 1 o n of the teeth Dr. Brady is fundamental for the attainment of health, vite and longevity. Essential for preservation of the teeth are (1) use of jaws, gums and a full complement of teeth (none missing) for masti cation of natural food, (2) good nutrition, and (3) regular care and advice of your dentist I believe there is but one way to keep your teeth clean, and that is by having them cleaned, if necessary scaled and polished, reguarly by your dentist. Per iodic inspection, cleaning, and treatment of any minute fis sures or beginning cavities the dentist may find. Is indispen sable for the preservation of the teeth. Everyone who gives the mat ter any thought at all naturally wants to keep la the best pos sible health, preserve his or her youthful characteristics, main tain good Immunity or "resist' ance" as the old timers call It, enjoy vite, have good morale, postpone the cold gradations of decap and attain a hearty old age. It was Oliver Wendell Holmes, I think, who remarked that the prevention of premature arter iosclerosis (hardening of the arteries, old age) must begin a hundred years before you are born. Holmes, like Dr. Osier, ascribed greater importance to heredity than seems warranted today. Today nutrition takes precedence over heredity as a factor in preserving youth or preventing hardening of the arteries, premature old age. Nutrition has a good deal to do with the development and preservation of sound, even teeth. It is well recognized that the diet of the expectant mother determines the quality of teeth her baby will have. On this scientific basis it is fair to say that conservation of the teeth must begin before you are born. If this makes the question of Prospect Prospect, Jan. 27. (Spl.V Jim Spring, who drives Glen Dole's truck and hauls lumber from the Jim Dole sawmill, was involved in a wreck Thursday evening about a mile below Cascade gorge. The rear chain around the load broke and as he was going around a turn the lumber shifted to one side, turning the truck bottom side up on the edge of a steep grade. Archie McKillop, who happened to come along at the time, took Mr. Spring and his wife to Med ford for medical attention, the former suffered from cuU and bruises about the head, and the latter received a broken collar bone.

Let me quote an elementary health principle: Digestion begins In the mouth, and salivary digesUon continues in the stomach. Good digestion begins with mastication of the food. Good digestion in the stomach is conditioned by and dependent on changes which occur in saliva, for these changes de termine the character and quality of the gastric juice which wiU be secreted . . . There you ara. If your masticating equip ment is not as efficient as it should be, the very best health investment you can make it to seek the necessary dental serv ice to enable you to digest the sort of food required to main tain good nutrition, good health, vite, longevity, physical effic iency and morale.

Agt hi The -Dayfs News By Frank Jenkins INVADING Jap forces, landed under tha guns of a strong Jap naval squadron, hold Ra baul, capital of New Britain, which Is one of the most im portant of tha chain of islands guarding the Australian main land on the north. The Jap landings seem to have been made from 11 trans ports, indicating a rather large force. The transports were guarded by three cruisers, a destroyer and an aircraft car rier. The Jap purpose is probably establishment of bomber bases. A USTRALIA is worried. Her deputy prime minister, Francis Forde, tells his country in a broadcast that the "war in the Pacific has now become the battle for Australia." Her war cabinet appeals for ACTIVE assistance in the Pac ific by the United States and Britain. The war cabinet's mes sages to Washington and Lon don are said to have detailed a "revised view of Pacific strat egy, taking tha view that the war might be won or lost there." (Disagreeing, that Is, with the theory tiat Hitler is Enemy No. I, who must be licked FIRST). pf support of the view that the war can be won or lost in the Pacific, take a look at the map. With Manila taken, Singapore taken, the DUTCH EAST INDIES AND AUSTRALIA taken, the Japs might move on into India. From India, they might move on into the Middle East, catching the British and the Russians between tha jaws of a mighty pincer. Such an idea, of course. Is fantastic. But Pearl Harbor was fan tastic IN London, Sir Stafford Cripps, retiring British ambassador to Moscow, gives us a new and on the whole encouraging pic ture of Russia's part in the war. He says the Russians hope to deliver the final blow to the nazis NEXT FALL AND WIN TER. He adds that the Soviets intend to make the conquest of Germany ABSOLUTELY COMPLETE and THOROUGH." As to their ability to do so. he says the Red army now has NINE MILLION MEN under arms and by epring will have TWICE THE STRENGTH it had at the. start of the Russian-German war last June. Russian production, he says. Is recovering, and with British and American aid tha Red army can be fully equipped to resist any German attack during the coming spring and summer. UE warns against "belief that the German army Is routed." Losses on both sides, he says, are extremely heavy, and the Germans are "fighting to the last man." (By that he means German morale is still high. It was Napoleon who said that the "factor of morale is as three to one.") 4 AS to- Russia's attitude toward Japan, he sayji "The Russians are still send ing equipment to China." He adds: "Russia and Japan have long standing difficulties which can never be satisfied EXCEPT BY FORCE." He asserts that Stalin Is "ten times as strong with his people now as at the start of the Ger man invasion last year." MORE IN SCHOOLS Portland, Jan. 27. AP En rollment for the second semester in Portland schools increased to 40.838 yesterday, 76 mora than on the comparable date last year. Elementary schools accounted for the increase, all high schools except Girls Polytechnic show ing a decrease. The office of the secretary of the navy was established by congress In 1798. MILK INSPECTOR SANITARY RULES For the Information of those who will help in supplying tha large Increase in milk needed in this area because of tha estab lishment of a cantonment here, the following statement has been Issued by Charles W. Austin, city milk inspector: In ready response to all in quiries, I hereby submit the fol lowing basic "reminders" for any added and all market milk In this district. I. Secure fairly recent herd tests for tuberculosis and abor tion, also health certificates for all persons handling milk. II, Use only pure water sup ply and keep it thus from source until used. Ill Provide sanitary toilets sufficiently convenient and com fortable to court use. IV, Effect provision for con stantly moving water by secur ing drainage for waste from buildings, floors, gutters, etc. V. Provide wash water that is really hot in milk houses sup plemented with washing-powder containing no lye soaps tabooed and plenty of punch In applying the scrub brush, riusn on aut messes or mishaps Immediately upon such occurences. VI. Continually remember this, dirt once incorporated into milk everafter remains dirt. No one can strain dirt out of milk. Keep it at the farm, It is more valuable on your land. VII. Remember, milk is most congenial to foreign odors, flav ors and bacterial growth than In any other human food. Just a suggestion for an after thought. The call for milk is mainly to provide for our de fense boys. In qualifying, we can add to our bit in maintain ing their health and stamina by leading in America's defense. Just a word concerning first hand impressions in most any thing. These are difficult to erase, also remember it is doubly so about milk and its products, therefore keep ever alive a virile and religiously honest effort to supply from "pail to pallet" good wholesome milk. No one can really fool self for long so why belittle selfhood in presuming to fool Inspection, regardless of who makes it, whether nation, state or municipality.
