The United Nations can now

to the recent extensive shooting

The naval officer who won
fame and a medal for his
"Sighted sub. Sank Same" mes

In Pittsburgh, at a luncheon,

was "Hello!" This is a model
for orators, liable to talk until
they drop from exhaustion.
At last a June day that was
rare, after several that were
raw, and Inclement, to boot.

United Nations spokesmen
are now demanding "a Just
peace." This was also the aim
in 1018, and received Just a
peace as it was called. The
elder statesmen should have
nothing to do with the terms.
Germany needs a peace as ruth
less as the war they wage with
fanatic leal, that will leave them
the "lesser peoples" they strive
to make all other.
The President's dog has don
ated its rubber bone to the rub
ber salvage campaign. A rub
ber bone must be as satisfying
to a dog as a white door-knob
to a hen filled with a yen to
"set."
It now turns out the warships
Italy reported she sank were
her own and close to all she had

In his carcass, and mad enough
to snatch himself bald-headed,
though already In that fix.

An Excellent Choice
The appointment of Elmer Davis, well known
writer and news commentator as head of U. S. "war
information", is an excellent selection and should
result in a marked improvement in the quality of our
war news.
Davis is an experienced newspaper man, energetic,
courageous and realistic, with a definite allergy for
the purely ornamental, the synthetic and the hocus
pocus.
With him at the publicity helm, the people may not
get ALL the war news; but what news they do get,
will be reliable, direct, and condensed. The editorial
izer and the pontificator, with Elmer in command,
will have a particularly hard row to hoe, which he
should have.
The "active press" in Washington and New York
will be especially pleased with this appointment.
Their choice from the start, was Davi3 as a one-man
boss, and apparently this is to be the set-up.
COR a while, about a month ago, it looked as
though the President's passion for another
"bureau" would prevail. But the Davis appointment
disposes of that idea automatically.
Elmer is no "bureau" man.

Vichy Loses Gold Case
The Supreme Court of the United States has de
clined to review the Belgian-French gold case. Be
tween November, 1939, and May, 19-10, the Belgian
Bank sent to the Bank of t
German invasion of Belgium $228,294,283 in gold.
When the Germans took over Faris the gold was in
that capital.
Just before the armistice between trance and
Germany was signed a request for the gold's return
to Belgium was refused. It
was sent by r ranee to Dakar. Later it was shipped
back to Marseilles by plane, where the nazis ob
tained it.
The Belgian Bank assigned its claim to Daniel and
Henri Wild. They obtained an attachment against
$749,000,000 belonging to the Bank of France and on
deposit with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York
City, New York courts found for these assignees of
the Bank of Belgium and with this judgment the
Supreme Court at Washington declines to interfere.

Dr. Brady so strong as
normal women, usually are ex
cessively fond of carbohydrates
(starchy foods, sweets), some
times potatoes, sometimes bon
bons, sometimes just fudge or
ice cream. Their fondness for
starch or sugar is probably due
to the fact that such food is
quickly absorbed and quickly
avai'able to supply energy. It
magically dispels the panicky
feeling or anxiety that any one
may feel when his or her blood
sugar level becomes too low.
Because of their tendency to
run out of blood sugar (the
physiological fuel constantly
used to supply energy for use
by the heart and other vital or
gans in their functions) hypopit-
uarians are more likely to suf

Come to that, In almost any
case of overweight if the indi
vidual can be firmly but gently
deprived of his or her refined
carbohydrates (constarch, re
fined sugar, syrups, refined
cereal, refined white flour) and
persuaded to subsist entirely
upon the proportion of carbohy
drate naturally present in veget
ables, fruit, milk, plain wheat,
and other undenaturized cereals
(from, which nothing has been
removed), it will matter little
just what diet he or she fellows,
for gradual reduction of weight
and improvement of health and
vitality will inevitably occur re
gardless. In fact, girls, and unless you
stand by me I'm not going to
make any friends say this, the
secret of a successful reduction
regimen is that it covers these
three essentials:
1. Cut the angel food.
2. Boop the vitamin intake.
3. A reasonable amount of
daily exercise.

Rare Steaks

should beef be cooked to be sure
that any such tapeworm larvae are
destroyed? (M. O. O.)
Answer I do not know what the
minimum fatal temperature would
be. but ordinary cooking destroys any
tapeworm larvae that may be present
In beef. Pork, of course, la not even
palatable or appetizing unless It la
thoroly cooked. There Is no reason
why a physician should recommend
rare or underdone steak or beef In

PAUL McNUTT, chairman of
the manpower commission, has
finally given figures on what
the armed forces require in the
way of medical men. By the end
of December 25,000 will be

navy departments wili take two
thirds of all physicians under
45 years. This will leave one
third for civilian requirements.
McN'utt says that if the doctors
do not volunteer "more drastic
measures" will be taken prob
ably meaning a draft. On the
basis of these figures any com
munity In the northwest can cal
culate how many physicians it
will contribute and what num
ber will be left at home for
civilian needs. McNutt is pro
posing that physicians who have
retired from active work return
to practice to fill the gap left by
professional men who respond

Proposed Legislation Not In

View Barns Regulated.
In a resolution without a dis

last night voiced its opposition
to the "Pacific Northwest Pow
er Empire Bill" now before con
gress and authorized the for
warding by the recorder of cop
ies of the resolution to Oregon's
fnnorpm.n and thi rhnirman
Tjf the congressional committee
having consideration of the Dill.
The resolution urged that the
national senate and house of
representatives "oppose and en
courage the deferment of such
legislation as contained in the
bill (House resolution 6890 and
Senate bill 430), and all other
non-essential legislation disturb
ing the people of Oregon, until
the termination of the present
emergency."
Held Detriment
As set forth in the resolution,
the council held that such legis
lation is detrimental to the wel
fare of the people of Medford
and the state of Oregon, and
that "the bill and its objectives
are not essential nor connected
with national defense, and will
result in the raising and expen
diture of vast amounts of
money." '
The bill, In short, would set
up a Columbia power authority,
giving the administrator power
to take over or condemn all ex
isting privately-owned utilities
in Oregon and Washington and
give the government control of
such utilities, it was explained
by Frank P. Farrell, city attor-
new j . j
One ordinance was adopted,
prohibiting the keeping of more
than two head of horses, mules,
cows, sheep or goats in any
barn, building or enclosure in
the city, and prohibiting the
usnina nf nnv one such animal
without the written consent of
owners of property witnin ouu

ordinance does not apply to

or sales stables.
