A Great Achievement
On September 17th President Roosevelt left Wash
ington for a train trip to the Pacific Coast and back.
The American press knew all about it, even the
usual press representatives accompanied the Presi
dent, but not a line was printed.
A week later the President's train, heavily guarded
and preceded by a pilot engine passed through
Klamath Falls.
This paper was informed of the fact, but of course
it was strictly off the record. Neither this paper nor
anv other DaDer on the coast so much as INTIMATED
the President was within
a result were completely unaware of it, until yester
day when the official party returned to the White
House.
THIS, we think, Is quite an achievement It shows
hmtr effWMvA f.hfl war renaorshin can be. if condi
tions demand it
It also shows how 100
pers of the country are in the resent war effort It is
really amazing that among all the newspaper men of
the land, not one not even Walter Winchell failed
to resist the temptation to directly or indirectly score
an epoch-shattering "beat"
THE newspapers are often cursed out for sensa-
tionalism and irresponsibility a disposition to
place their self-interest above the public welfare.
In peace time there may be, now and then, some
justification for such an indictment, particularly in
the metropolitan areas; but in the present war to date,
certainly the newspapers of this country have set an
example, wnicn is greaiiy io ineir creait arm which
the rest of the country might well emulate.
Will ED. R. Lose Farmers?
Anion? other comments upon his return from the
swiner-around-the-circle President Roosevelt declared

entire political conflict over
bill.
The more money the fanner gets for his farm prod
ucts, the more the laborer has to pay for the contents
of his dinner pail, and visa versa.

the farm vote.
Perhaps he will succeed
at the present writing it doesn't look like it. In fact
it looks very much as if a majority of the farm vote
would be anti-Roosevelt in November if not solidly
anti-Democratic.
TJOWEVER, this need not result in any outstanding
Republican gains. The claim that when Presi
dent Roosevelt deliberately makes a move that loses
him votes the Washington monument does a buck
and wing dance, is still pretty close to the mark.
The labor vote still outnumbers the farm vote and
will overwhelmingly in this
farmer vote lost, the President will gain close to half
a dozen workers ballots.
The only really encouraging thing for the G.O.P.,
therefore, is that for some
President Roosevelt did not

How About India?

22-word bulletin:
'Twenty-five persons were killed today when police
fired on a mob which attacked a police station at Irum in
Orlssa province."
COME well-informed military observers believe
Great Britain is making a colossal and perhaps a
fatal blunder in India.
In current "Common Sense," Frances Gunther, wife
of John Gunther, goes so far as to claim that if India
loses her present fight for complete independence,
the United Nations will lose the war.
For such a failure would throw all India against
England, if not absolutely in the arms of the axis, and
without India the British Empire can't last
e e e e
THIS sounds like rather an extravagant statement,
but Mrs. Gunther, with her husband, recently made
a first-hand study of conditions in that country, and
her whole hearted devotion to the cause of Britain
and the allies is unquestioned.
TMEANWHILE it appears to a man up a tree a
niche often occupied by the skipper of this de
partmentthat the Japanese are playing a pretty
shrewd game in this particular instance.
In strong force supposedly on the Indian border,
Nippon is concentrating, not on military action, but
on propaganda and persistent 5th column penetra
tion, particularly the latter.
This is smart
For unless we are badly mistaken the first sign of
aimed action directly against India would consolidate
that entire country against the yellow invaders and
destroy the internal dissension that is now such a seri
ous handicap to any successful allied defense, and
such an asset to the Axis.

SACRO ILIAC OR LUMBO SACRAL STRAIN
Writing to a professional col
league (an osteopathic physi
cian) the other day I mentioned
that I was par
tially disabled
by what I be
lieved to be a
"slipped i n -nominate"
(as
I believe the
osteopaths
sometimes call
it) or a sacro
iliac strain or
or sprain suf
fered from try
ing to lift a
Dr. Brady heavy object
while bending down instead of
squatting and lifting with mv
legs, keeping my back straight,
as one should do. My colleague
reminded me that such a strain
often affects the lum bo-sacral
articulation, that Is the juncture
of the lowest lumbar vertebra
with the sacrum or lowest bone
of the spine which is joined to
the wings of the hip bones on
either side to form part of the
pelvis. And by golly, I believe
my osteopathic friend is right.
for I had noticed that the tender
ness and pain seemed plumb in
the centre and no movement of
one side gave more pain or dis
comfort than the same move
ment of the other side, whereas
a sprain or strain of the sacro
iliac would give more pain and
limitation of movement of the
leg on the side affected. It seems
too bad, doesn't it, that my sprain
is not on the mend (four days)
If it were a little worse I'd
have to visit the osteopath and
find out just what the lesion is
and what treatment it should
have.
Whether your particular crick
in the back is sacro-iliac or lum
bosacral strain, the best first aid
and early treatment, that is to
put on a strong wide belt and
wear it low over the hips and as
tightly drawn as you can com
fortably stand. Such a belt, per
haps with a hand size pad on
either side of the spine under
the belt, gives support to the
strained muscles and ligaments
of the sacro-iliac juncture and
in some cases brings extraordin
ary relief to the pain and dis
ability as soon as it is applied.
tor the same reason careful
strapping with adhesive plaster
around the body below the crest
of hip bones gives much relief.
We medical docs, at least
when I was in medical school,

LET'S FORGET THE
CONTROVERSY
To the editor:
Being neither a newcomer nor
a native Medfordite, I risk hav
ing both sides of the present
"hospitality controversy" throw
cabbages at my head by making
a few suggestions, myself.
When I first came to Medford
I thought it a pretty difficult
place to become known and to
feel at home. I began attending
the church to which I had be
longed in another town, but
found no response in its mem
bers. Probably I was too shy,
too. But after a time I changed
churches, and in my present
church-home I am happy and
contented. There the stranger
is always made to feel one of
us, if he will, and we have with
us some splendid people from
other states, newcomers among
us practically every morning,
and what lovely people they are!
I do believe that a lot of the
old-timers of Medford have
grown up together, they have
their old friends, their homes
and their business to take up
their time, and perhaps in years
past they have not thought suf
ficiently about the strangers
among them, but I am sure it
was not their intention to snub
or slight others. Probably the
newcomers who find Medford
difficult would have been Judged
about the same way by newcom
ers in their own. towns, had not
this war upset the nation and
made many "strangers in a for
eign land."
I think Mrs. H.M.K.. whose
letter appeared in Tuesday's pa
per, must be a lovely person, and
I should like to know her. I be
lieve she is typical of most o(
our newcomers, but, of course,
in any large group we will find
those who like us and want us
to like them, and a few who
yearn for home and the old
friends to such an extent that
they have no room in their
hearts for the people here. Neith
er all Medford people nor all
people in ANY town can be con
sidered friendly nor desirable
companions.
On the other hand, I feel sorry
for Mrs. W. W. T. because of
the storm of protest her letter
brought. I feel that she only
meant to be loyal to the fine peo
ple of Medford who HAVE gone
all-out to make the strangers

be any subluxation or partial
dislocation or any movement at
all at the sacro-iliac juncture.
The osteopathic docs have as
serted for many years that
slight dislocation or subluxation
is a common occurrence in such
cases. The controversy goes on
a-pace and medical men insist
that X-ray pictures reveal no
such displacement, while osteo
paths as firmly Insist that X-ray
pictures confirm the. diagnosis
of subluxation or partial dlslo
cation.

back" when lifting or when

advice at all.
QUESTION ANSWERS
No Wonder
Would appreciate It If you could
tell me why I gag io easily, especially
when brushing my teeth. (D. C.)
Answer After all. brushing the
teeth, like cleaning out the esopha
gus with a swab, is an unnatural sort
of interference and nature rebels In
the way you describe. Ever have a
stomach wasb thru a tube gently
Insinuated Into your stomach? Yeah,
that's what I mean.
Rays
What are the names of the dlf.
ferent light rays the sun transmits,
such as ultra-violet rays and others?
(8. P. A.)
Answer The visible rays are the
red. orange, yellow, green, blue and
violet rays of the spectrum-or rain
bow. Then there are Important In
visible rays of longer wave length
than the red rays which are the
longest in the visible rays, and these
are called Infra-red (heat), and other
Invisible rays shorter than the blue
and violet which are the shortest of
the visible rays, and these are called
ultraviolet rays (cold).
Ear Plugs
Live on nolsv street, constant din
of traffic, radios, other city noises
Find I can Insert ear plugs such as
vou suggested for swimmers, and so
shut out most of the noise and sleep
with comparatlce comfort. Is there
any harm In this? (Miss M. P.)
Answer No harm. Many people use
such ear plugs for that purpose, wl.h
advantage. The plugs are of pliant
waxy material, commonly sold by
druggists and sports good dealers for
the use of swimmers.

SHE LIKES MEDFORD FINE
To the editor:
Reading the communication
by Mrs. B. H., September 29 is
hard for me to understand when
my experience was so decidedly
the opposite, making me feel
truly sorry tor anyone so un
fortunate. Would be glad to meet Mrs.
B. H., and if she would call at
611 West 8th street perhaps in
an exchange of experience we
have had, might be able to con-,
vince her there are many very
friendly kind hearted people
ready to be just that way to
those more recent arrivals.
Have traveled around and
through every state In the U. S.
and attended services in that
many different churches and
can truthfully say never once
have I come out of a service
without feeling I had been meet
ing friendly people, making me
feel glad to be there.
And, still another thing Is that
we always come home feeling
Medford was just one of the j
best of all.
We had reverses, yes, aplenty,
but never once did I feel it was
caused by anything but our
own mlsjudgment or manage
ment. Sincerely hoping Mrs. B. H
and others of similar views, will,
before leaving, find there is a
majority in Medford - of good
kind, friendly people if given
the opportunity.

NAME IS MISSPELLED
To the editor:
In tonight's paper under the

was intended to be our name
only no one else would have
recognized it. It was printed
"William Aisme."
The real name Is Bill (not
William, or anything else not
even a middle name) Emigh. It
is pronounced Amey. I can't
blame anyone for not being able
to spell it, can you?
We have been taking the Tri

very much.

to be a crab I thought you
might be interested. Even your
