In the "open house" ceremonies at Camp White August 15th, marking the activation of the new 91st division, the Jackson county war bond committee sees an opportunity to show "the world" just what their purchases of war bonds and stamps really mean when translated into terms of weapons. One of the features of the public ceremonies at Camp White will be an exhibition of the latest military equipment Moreover, citizens here will have the opportunity to actually buy some of the weapons for their adopted division, the 91st A sales quota of a half million dollars worth of stamps and bonds has been set by the local committee, and August 15th is the deadline for raising this sum. UOW many guns will this $500,000 buy? At maturity value, it would provide the 91st division with 6,250 of the new M-l Garand rifles. It would buy 625 of the funny looking little "peeps" now darting about on Jackson county highways. It would pay for 77 hard-hitting 37 MM anti-tank guns the kind which will be shown at Camp White's "open house". Or our half-million dollar loan to Uncle Sam would give the 91st division 50 field guns of 77 MM caliber. "THE old 91st wrote a glorious record for gallantry and achievement in the annals of the first world war. The new 91st, with the same battle cry heard at Yyres-Lys and Meuse-Argonne "Powder River, let 'er buck" will sustain these traditions on some distant battle field in days to come. The very least that WE can do is to make certain that this, and other units of America's expanding fighting force, have the best weapons that money can buy and plenty of them. Indeed, it is little sacrifice on our part to LOAN our dollars in this critical is cheap, no matter how never were so great. "THERE must be the fullest public support of this brief, intensive war bond and stamp drive if Jack son county is to reach its self-assigned goal. Beginning today, therefore, let every citizen here take new account of his ability to buy stamps and bonds. You are GIVING nothing. You are merely INVESTING in victory! You are guaranteeing tinued existence of everything you hold dear in the life of your nation. H.G. Democrats Fighting F. D. R. We can't blame the faithful Charles Michelson for being agitated. The political danger faced bv the Roosevelt administration this November is a double one, the wicked Republicans on one hand, the anti- Roosevelt Democrats on the At the moment judging pressure, the latter are causing the Democratic Pub licity Director the greater concern. ..... THEY are betting 8 to uciiaiui lucau, uic xvuuocvcic tuuivc, 111 iev luin state, and if he does this will be a blow that will shake the Bourbon machine in the Empire State to its very foundations.

The Roosevelt administration has about as much use for O'Daniel, as it has for Ham Fish, but it even looks as though the President's detested neighbor in Duchess county might stage his usual comeback for his seat in the Lower House. ..... CO no one can blame Charles for being a bit more vitriolic than usual in his current weekly "hand out." And for once we are all for him. The more Ham Fishes and "Pappy Biscuit" O'Daniels thrown overboard for the duration, the better for the country and the present war effort. And after all that is all that counts, or should count, in the coming fall election, its contribution to the greater effectiveness of the American war effort Women Voters Fight Inflation The National League of Women Voters has charg ed the U. S. Senate with responsibility for an "adequate" 19-12 tax bill and advocated adoption of an anti-inflationary program exceeding the i-8.7 bil lion revenue recommendation proposed by the Treas ury. As the Senate Finance Committee took over juris diction of the House tax bill, $2.5 billion short of the Treasury's proposals, the league threw its weight squarely behind a tax program even heavier than the Treasury's, by issuing a broadside titled "Next Year's Taxes Will They Be Adequate? It's Up To The Senate!" The league will distribute the leaflet on a national scale as part of its wartime service of inter preting current governmental issues to the public. o ""THE most serious defect of both the House bill and the Treasury program lies in the' personal income hour. The price of freedom high the cost. Its dividends with your dollars the con other. by Charley's literary blood 6, Jim Farley will defeat this same Democratic oppo tax provisions, the broadside states. "Neither set of proposals recognizes the need for putting a brake on inflation by taxing away a large part of the money people have in excess of what can be spent on the diminishing supply of goods and services." The league takes the position that heavy taxation is "cheaper", than inflation and that it is necessary to levy big taxes on both small and large incomes in order to check inflation. Personal Health Service By WilUm Signed letter pertaining to personal health and hygiene, not to dleae dlaguobis or treatment, will be anawrred by Or.

HEALTH AND STRENGTH For many years the big mus cle boys of the pulps have been promising child - minded cus- t o m e r s the strength of Samson In six easy les s o n s and probably that has lent weight to the popular notion that strength means health This notion is misleading and harmful. A man may have Dr. Brady extraordina r y physical or muscular strength, more than a normal person has, yet be ill of a serious organic disease. I recall the instance of a youth whose physical strength and development was outstand ing in a group of young men undergoing complete physical examination. He had a five-inch chest expansion, whereas the others had the average two or three inches. Most of the others passed the examination, but the remarkably strong and well de veloped young man failed he had pulmonary tuberculosis. Not that overdevelopment of muscle predisposes to tuberculosis par ticularly the extreme muscular development certainly tends to sap the individual's vitality but just to show that great phys ical or muscular strength should not be confused with health or vite. This misconception crops up every day in letters from our readers, in a context 'which, to my mind, accounts for a com mon carelessness or negligence on the part of the laity, namely, reluctance to consult the physi cian in the early stages of heart, artery, brain, or kidney mani festations of CVD. CVD means cardiovascular de generation heart-artery wear ing out in mature adults, which accounts for most of the "break downs" of middle age and there after. Typical of this popular mis conception is the familiar obser vation of astonishment at so-and- so's heart failure, as so-and-so was apparently so strong and powerfully built. On other occasions I have en deavored to suggest some of the early, and generally misinter preted manifestations of CVD, without unduly alarming any News Behind The News by Paul Mallon (Continued from Psg One) the war by giving them a quart of milk a day, and other things. Some curtailment In person nel has been noticed ip BEW this past month, on July 1, it had around 2000 employees. Au thorities there say they decided to curtail in the interest of economy, but some of the bright young men who have left, say they rea'ized its scope was being limited.. THE major policy row between price fixer Leon Henderson and war labor board Chairman William H. Davis reached an noying, but unreported, heights this week. It seemed to develop aspects of a duel to the death with Hen derson convinced there was no use trying to hold down the cost of living if Davis continues In creasing union wages. Mr. Davis feels the same way about it In reverse. A decision by Mr Roosevelt Is expected before the end of the week. JE WSMEN around the old vlc '"torian state department building got tired of seeing forty staircases with heavy brass handled rails when they read news dispatches this wek that small arms making plants were closing down for lack of brass.

MA. however, said It was ; i-y.nt t.c r 'r.g ebout brass stair i rails, and was only collecting Brady, M. D. body, but it is pretty difficult to do so via newspaper or letter. 1 know of but one way to deal intelligently and effectively with CVD and that is by person al interview with the patient. I have done the best I can do with the question in the booklet "CVD" available on request if you inclose ten cents and stamp ed envelope bearing your ad dress. But the best advice I can offer any adult who may be in the incipien. stage of CVD. whether he realizes it or thinks it is Just "indigestion" or "over work", is this: select a good doctor, not a "specialist" but a good doctor in your own com munity, and consult him regu larly about your diet, general habits, hygiene, and everything pertaining to health and longev ity, from now on. And don't wait till you are incapacitated by the progress of the degeneration. The longer you neglect proper medical care the less the dictor can do for you in any case.

C OPA Lawyers Set To Aid Housewives House in Recess For Campaign Bonneville Power Sabotage Hinted Br John W. rally Washington, D. C, Aug. 3. Office of price administration is waiting to rush to the assistance of some housewife in distress. OPA has sufficient lawyers to meet the situation, hundreds of them. Under the price control act if a housewife discovers she is being cheated by the butcher, the baker, the candlestick maker she can sue for $50 or for three times the amount of the over charge, whichever is the greater sum. Time has been allowed dealers to prepare their prices (those of last March being the yardstick) and observe them. OPA insists that all March prices be display ed on a large card; it prohibits the keeping of the March prices in a book which would require thumbing display the prices on the wall, plainl.y. Presumably all dealers will observe the rules of OPA, but if a merchant at tempts to "slip something over" on a customer OPA is prepared to see that the penalty is en forced if the customer takes action. In addition to collecting $50, or triple damages, the cus tomer is also entitled to attor ney's fees and court costs. When ever one of these cases develops OPA will intervene through one of its legion of lawyers. SUBCOMMITTEE of the house naval affairs will zoom down upon the waters of the Columbia river and again on Puget sound in a navy transport plane for a check-up. The sub committee will swing around to the south to naval establishments on the gulf and then into Cali fornia before going into Oregon and Washington. Tongue Point will be the objective on the Co lumbia and the navy yard at Bremerton and other establish ments on Puget sound. At pres ent the committee does not con template flying to Alaska, but it may inspect sites of new avia tion centers in the northwest where the latest "secret weapon" is to be located. INSOFAR as the house of rep resentatives is concerned it has taken an informal recess until the middle of September and members are hurrying home for the campaign. The senate is also practically adjourned, but is on a three-day recess schedule. By a gentlemen's agreement no con troversial legislation will be taken up by the few members still in the national capital. Before leaving, members ex pressed themselves freely on the way certain departments are conducting the war. The office of civilian defense was criticised for not furnishing gas masks to the people of the Pacific north west when army and navy men have intimated that section of the country may be invaded -.nd that the Japanese may use gas. Refusal of war department to approve (until months after Pearl Harbor) a land route to Alaska was another item of criti cism, to which was added the fact that army engineers are now building the road too far to the east and through miles of mus keg swamp. AN attempt is being made to sabotage Bonneville power dam, according to unconfirmed but government whispers. The sabot age is not the dynamiting of the dam and blowing the power house to smithereens, but the di version of generators now being constructed for the final units and using them elsewhere. This would cut down the total capac ity of kilowatt production and confirm allegations of one of the power advisors of war produc tion board that the northwest is practically at the end Of its rope i: power production and that any new war Industries should not be located in Columbia val ley, but should be placed in TVA territory. Turbines are in high demand, and large ones require time to build, and should those being fabricated for Bonneville be shifted elsewhere (as were gen erators for Shasta dam switched to Grand Coulee) it might be that Bonneville will never have complete installation; the metal not being available during the war, and thereafter the power may not be needed. ESTIMATED cost to Improve stat highway systems to a mini mum of war department require ments shows Washington re quires $40,530,000 and Oregon $100,000,000. The funds will not be available. Estimates were pre pared by American Association of State Highway officials. HAVING been provided with an airport, the town of Ontario in Oregon now asks that a tram mi. base be established there. The United States division en-1 gineer of the north Pacific dis trict has been delegated to make j s study of the facilities st On tario and the report will be con sidered when and if it may fit I into the plans of the air corps some time in the future.
