Editorial Correspondence
En Route to Chicago Aboard Portland Rose, Jan. 29. My old
pal General "Hotfoot" Jackson wouldn't stand this! Left Portland
at 0:30 last night, and reached Baker this morning, after choo
choolng hard all night. Why buy a railroad ticket when you can
beat it on the hoof!
The Portland Rose may be both beautiful and fragrant, but no
one would accuse It of being "FAST", or moving In fast com
pany. Dean Dearborn and Mrs. Dearborn of O.S.C. are on the "Rose"
enroute to New York where Mrs. Dearborn has been called by the
death of her brother.
A very gracious and handsome couple, both belonging to that
rare type to which the famous "Cleo" belonged, they grow older
but refuse to LOOK the part. In fact they rather resemble a couple
of photogenic juveniles, who have been made up by some Holly
wood genius, with chalk and crayon to look like oldsters only
for the third act.
a .
The beautiful weather continues, brilliant sun, not cloud
in the sky. Just a sprinkle of snow over the landscape to give it
wintry look... Dr. K. should be here with his blunderbus, oodles
of wild ducks around the creeks and ponds, not even a sliver of
ice in sight. January in Idaho at least, is going out like Sonja
Henle, in burst of star dustl
Many soldier boys on the train, look like high-school lads,
rather self conscious and uncomfortable in their heavy regimentals.
Two across the aisle can't be over 20, one is painfully sewing
up a rip in his khaki pants (his extra pair!) the other smoking
a big fat cigar. Sizing them up, we would pick the former in a
fight. These boys are going to our destination (Rockford, 111), the
site of Camp Grant, after having enjoyed a visit with their "folks."
.
An extremely attractive young lady boards the train at Boise,
her new suitcase plastered with college labels among which
"Idaho" is prominent, and her fatherly escort asking the Pullman
conductor to see that she makes her connection with the C.P.R.
at Chicago for Toronto. The conductor would be delighted and
will see her to her Parmelee bjs. For two or three hours she sits
alone demurely reading "Pic" and kindred HEAVY literature
while the soldier boys eye her with obvious approval. Finally
two of them come across and the bolder (with the cigar) asks if
they may sit in the same section.
Not batting an eye Miss Collegiate says they may, but contrary
to the Hollywood pattern they
she, can't talk and perspire like a. couple of Turkish bath
patients, wiping their beady foreheads repeatedly and grinning in
self conscious and awkward fashion. Finally the domestic one
who had patched his pants gives it up, takes his former seat and
sheds his coat, looking relieved to be out of It.
To turn the comedy Into a farce the cigar smoker is discovered
by the porter and told to throw the weed away or go to the
smoking room, "They'se ladies present!"
WE doubt if the young man will feel any worse if and when
he encounters his first bullet, yet he has what it takes (in war)
and Ignores the request.
The porter who is a great admirer of Joe Louis, and should
have taken up his hero's profession instead of one where amis-
bility Is an ASSET, repeats his
ill"
"Keep your shirt on, buddy" snarls the adolescent minion of
Mars, "can't I sit here and let it go OUTI"
And there he did sit.
But the spell was broken, and he soon departed also. However
the young lady was not alone for long, two other soldiers are
now taking a workout (Grandpap isn't worrying the Canadian
Miss is quite capable of taking care of herself I)
.
At the end of the car four soldiers are playing rummy, and
complaining because they Joined up Instead of getting jobs in
essential war work at $13 per dayl
We inquire of one of the officers at luncheon and he says:
"You must realize these privates have a tradition to maintain.
they wouldn't be real soldiers If they didn't grouse." .
... a a
Might be well to remind the boys,, that the Japs are fighting
and dying for something like 80 cents a week, and any grousing
over there, or In Germany would undoubtedly mean the guard
house If not worse. However that is certainly the doughboy
tradition, and one of the things we are fighting for IS "free
speech!"
Of course our "severest critic" will seriously question the
authenticity of this soldier-pretty girl episode, but with these
"travelogues," as General Jackson will testify, ye editor NEVER
ROMANCES, so much as a single sentence. Events and places
are recorded EXACTLY as they come along.
The second pair In khaki, by the way, have given up and
beaten a strategic retreat, while the young lady and she really
is very pretty, has returned to her "Pic."
Just passed Shoshone Junction where the branch line goes to
Sun Valley. many smart looking men and women about may
be Hollywooders, maybe not.
Could you imagine the S. P. ever putting millions into a resort
like that to build up tralfic and the country! Their unfailing
business principle is to let someone else buy the cow while they
milk It! Many railroads would do well to follow the U.P. in enter
prise, public spirit and service.
Just before taking the train last night a newspaper man told
us General DeWitt has upheld the S. P. contention that taking
off that one horse train and depriving Southern Oregon of all
through train service to California comes under the heading of
military necessity, or words to that effect.
Of course, as before stated, If that is the general's official
order, then the argument ends as far as this paper is concerned
In time of war no one should go beyond a commanding general's
official statement.
Well, well. iiere is an Item. The Pullman conductor who is
extremely attentl and courteous lives in Pocatello, Idaho, and

FIRST AID FOR FROSTBITE
Chilblain is frostbite. First de
gree frostbite (like first degree
burn) if it is merely reddening,
s m a r t i ng or
aching of the
skin, mild in
f 1 a m m atlon.
Second degree
If blisters
form.
The emerg
ency treatment
of c h 1 1 blain,
like that of
frostbite of ear,
cheek, fingers,
la too often
Dr. Braey overdone. Only
the gentlest rubbing or friction,
if any, should be applied.
Stcfansson, famous Arctic ex
plorer, is surely qualified to ad
vise how to treat frostbite. From
his five years in the Arctic he
learned that the best emergency
'treatment of frostbite of cheek,
i nose or other member is to hold
' the warm dry hand on the spot
I for a little while, very gently
! kneading it, but not rubbing it?
If necessary warm the hand first
; by holding it In the armpit
In any case manipulation of
I the frostbitten part should
I cease the instant blanching dis
appears and natural pink Qplor
returns.
Above all, do not apply Ice,
snow or cold water to a frosted
or frozen member, and do not
j unnecessarily keep the patient
in a cold or cool place if there
a warm place available. In
this respect I am afraid some
muddled medical men still har
bor archaic notions. In my scrap
book are several odd communi
cations from physicians who sol
emnly set forth their their Ideas
about "drawing out frost", Ideas
so quaint that it Is hard to be
lieve a physician today could en
tertain them.
Applying Ice, snow or cold wa
ter to frostbite is as absurd as
the weird practice of "rolling on
a barel" a victim rescued from
i submersion. And it Is as worthy
as condemnation as the teaching,
that rescuers should perpetrate
the "Jacknlfe" maneuver upon
the victim before beginning arti
ficial respiration.
To relieve the Itching, smart
ing and aching of chilblain bathe
the surface with a teaspoonful
of alum In a half pint of warm
water, then dry by pressing with
soft towel and powder with sim
ple talcum or burn ted talcum
powder.
If blisters form do not break
them until you must get about
on your feet. Then carefully
puncture each blister with a
needle held first In a flame to

The idea cuts across so many

even Fels is not sure how

that it would cost less than try

It seems to me this Feis plan j

Fiji islanders pre-natal care, or
lot John Lewis organize the
Eskimos. The rising notion
here (see V. P. Wallace's Harp-
er's article) Is to socialize the
world. Feis merely wants to
trad.' with it. j
Either way. ol course, It Is go
ing to cost us big money. When
we win, we will have the manu-
I facturing capacity and the food
and the world will have little or
nothing with which to pay for
it. All that we give away on

Generally it ie better to avoid

Hot coffee or hot tea or some

Sugar Rationing
Cards Out Soon
Sugar Beet Boost
Planned in West
Lack of Valves
Hits Shipyards
Br John W. Ksllr
Washington, D. C , Jan. 31
Government pr'nting office,
largest institution of its kind
in the world and which operates
t hours a day (serves complete
turkey dinner on holidays for
two bits) Is preparing to tackle
a real job. The presses will soon
be turning out approximately
130.000.000 rationing cards for
sugar. This job must be exe
cuted with dispatch and at the
same time not interfere with
printing the dally Congressional
Record, postal cards, senate and
house bills and the innumerable
documents which give employ
ment to about 4.000 men and
women seven days a week
Sugar rationing is intended
to prevent housewives and
others from hoarding, but any
housewife will insist that in
buying a few extra pounds for
her family she Is only using
common sense. The government
word for It, however, is hoard
ing. Less than 90 days ago the
sugar quota was made: so much
beet sugar, so much from Ha
waii, Puerto Rico, Cuba. The
Philippines quota was distrib
uted to domestic producers.
Everything was hunky-dory in
October. In February the ra
tioning cards are expected The
war is moving rapidly. Reason
for rationing is that, while the
United States can raise all the
sugar it requires, this country
is now preparing to supply all
who are fighting Hitler. Italy
and Japan, and that appears to
take In the world.
In addition to sending sugar
abroad, it is being converted In
to industrial alcohol for smoke
less powder. To make alcohol,
gin will be scarce, rye and bour
bon production cut 00 percent;
no rum, unless It Is the Govern
'ment House brand which Uncle
Sam makes In Virgin islands
Conservation of sugar has al
most destroyed the soft drink
business, dealers having been
rationed the first of the month.
.
THERE are 7.000 acres In
Washington good for sugar beet
growing, according to the de
partment of agriculture; many
more thousands In eastern Ore
gon, in Idaho, Montana, Colo
rado, Utah and California. There
Is a refinery at Nyssa, another
at Nampa. Tor this year and
next, and probably In 1944 and
1945, settlers on reclamation
protects where the soil is suit
able will be permitted to grow
dii tne sugar beets they can.
j Western senators and represent-
Htives are a art to th micar
situation, are insisting that all
quotas are .off and sugar beet
farmers be given a free Hand.
For climatic and other rea
sons the soli in Idaho, Washing
ton and Oregon produce the best
sugar beet in the country: very
high sugar content. Promise is
made hat sugar price will not
soar; will be stabilized. (Sugar
bowls have been removed from
the cafeteria in all government
buildings: one spoon to the cup,
and stir hard.)
EACH cargo carrier being
launched in Columbia river dis
trict and on Puget sound re
quires 800 valves. Every de

These are of many kinds large
smal). for hot water, cold water
and steam. Navy department
thought It had a sufficient num
ber; now discovers that, with
the expanded two-ocean naw, it
will require thousands of "tons
of valves, a serious shortage
The same situation applies to
the federal maritime commis
sion. Bremerton navy yard ar
ranged with a northwest firm
to supply 14.000 valves: prom
ised to send samples, but de
cided it could not spare even
these: promised blueprints did

PILOTS PER YEAR,
NAVY OBJECTIVE
Washington, Jan. 31. (F)
The navy department announced
plans tonight to turn out 30,000
pilots a year in what it called
"the greatest aviation training
program in naval history."
Facilities of four large univer
sities will be leased, each uni
versity to become an "Annapolis
of the air." The names of the
four universities were not an
nounced. One is located in the
east, one in the west, another in
the south and the fourth in the
midwest.
The facilities of these univer
sities will be rented by the navy
for the duration of the war.
The announcement said that
the new expanded naval avia
tion training program will be In
operation "by May I or sooner,
and applications for training al
ready are being accepted."
The plan involves the induc
tion of moie than 2,500 aviation
cadets a month.
Kach candidate will undergo
"an extremely rigorous toughen
ing process deliberately aimed
at making our sea hawks the
strongest, most daring and most
determined type of airmen in the
world," the announcement said.
