PAR removed from the present African hotbed in 1 Tunisia and Tripolitania, French Somaliland is a tiny parcel the size of New Jersey on Africa's nortneast coast it lies between Italian Eritrea and British Somaliland at the Strait of Bab el Mandeb. southern gateway to the Red Sea.

The Franco- Ethiopian Railroad, climbing 8,100 feet up in its 486-mile stretch inland to Addis Ababa, brings the wealth of Ethiopia's hills to the world through Djibouti, despite Italian efforts to develop highway and rail routes from Ethiopia to Massaua on Eritrea's coast In addition to its rail-to-ship transfer trade, Djibouti normally services many large ships in the East-West trade. It is the only large, deep, well sheltered harbor in 1,500 miles of African coast, and was France's only port between the Mediter ranean and Madagascar or French Indo-China. N. G. N.

TAYLOR'S TOPIC AT ROTARY MEET An interesting address on the changing map of tha world was presented at the Tuesday lunch eon meeting of Medford Rotary club by DeVere Taylor, civics instructor of Medford high school. The meeting was held at tne Hotel Medford. ( Taylor reminded Rotarlans that the early Greeks knew that tha world was round, and traced the grownlg acceptance ot that fact through the ages. He pointed out that seven-eighths of the earth's surface lies north of the equator, and discussed tha rela tionship of various bodies of land to tne present world conditions. "Isolationism has been based upon geography," Taylor said in snowing to Rotarlans on a new type map how close the so-called western hemisphere is actually situated in relation to Asia, Eu- nope and Africa. The map used oy ma speaker showed the earth's surface as might be viewed from the stratosphere above the north Dole. Distances should-be figured in time re. quired to reach a point and not In miles, in this fast-movln world, ha said. Aa an opening feature of the program, rrank J. Newman for mally welcomed five new Rninrv n.moen into ine club. Since Ro tary international was organ ized in 1905 by Paul Harris anrl a small group of friends, the or ganization nas grown to a world wide scope, with 8,070 clubs and more than 113.000 nnw. Newman told tha new members. Very satisfactory progress" In the training of members of the 91st Division was reported by ....jur ucnerai wnaries Ger hardt in a brief talk at the meet- ins. T TESTS WINGS IN EPOCHAL FLIGHT hypodermic of Intramuscular in jection la likely to be habit forming. Probably 98 per cent of all medicines administered by the needle today are without sedative, stimulating or narcotic effect, simple remedies like iron. gland hormones, vitamins, etc. It la absurd and, in effect, dan gerous to imagine anyone in any circumstance could possibly get into a habit of taking insulin. Far from weakening or reducing the capacity of one's own gland cells (islands of Langerhans) in the pancreas to manufacture in sulin In sufficient quantity to take care of the carbohydrate metabolism assimilation and util ization of starches and sugars), the administration of insulin by hypodermic Injection at about mealtime seems to give these gland cells needed rest and so to favor improvement in thelr function. This explains why so many persons with diabetes are able to reduce their daily dose of insulin after a time, when they take it regularly in the dose advised by their own physician. Again I remind those who have diabetes and those who are train ing for it that vitamin B-com- plex (poor man's insulin) has favorable influence on carbohy drate metabolism, and it is im portant to see to it that the re striction of diet Imposed bv the aiBoetic state does not incidental ly deprive the patient of the vita min B-complex that is indispens able for good nutrition. For in stance wheat or wheat germ is the richest natural source of vitamin B-complex, but this same item Is one of tha richest sources of starch In the every day diet and hence is one 'of the first items to be restricted in the diet of the diabetic. In wheat, plain wheat, as grown by farmers, you know, we nave one of the richest natural but this factor Is absent from refined white flour, and even plain wheat loses 30 to 40 per cent of It during cooking. So I still advise every family to keep a supply of plain wheat in the pantry and use it freely in the daily dietary in place of part of the refined white flour in various recipes (send stamped envelope bearing your address, I recommend tha chewing of a handful of raw wheat every day, too.

There it still a prospect of women being called to register. Such men of military age as are not in service will be found In essential war work where their knowledge and experience will be of more value to the nation than if they were pulling the trigger of a machine gun. In the rushing, roaring months of 1943 the cities of the north west, such as Spokane, Seattle, Tacoma, Vancouver, Astoria and Portland wherever there are war industries will boom with well-paid workers and thousands more will be employed than at present. All of these cities are headed for trouble in getting workers to the job and getting them back home. It will be. the most congested year that the northwest has ever experienced. Housing these worker will continue to be a problem, not withstanding the thousands of units erected by federal housing organizations. Present dwelling facilities have not been project ed on the peak employment con templated for the new year. Pri orities will delay, if not prohibit, an expansion of these facilities. qttsrioxi ANSWTE Bony Merer Cried Ht bobr kw error crtod. since he wis bora.

A STRONG reform tax plan Is supposed to have been worked up by the fancy econ om e dancers of the treasury, which revives the old speniine tax and may couple with it a proposal to freeze capital, which will certainly yank a lot of hats off in the nation if Mr. Roose velt goes through with it The president is known to have long been thinking along the line of freezing capital. Such a refrigeration would re quire all business to run on cur rent investment and prevent it from expanding or selling its stocks and bonds. The election results may cause the president to postpone such a recommendation, but cer tainly a new mis-named "spend ing tax" plan to tax the amount of money which everyone has left after paying his cost-of-living expenses, will be offered by the treasury. THE old formula for this, which was recommended by the treasury last session, was absurd and laughed out of the house ways and means commit tee, but a new way of getting at the same idea will now be presented. v It will be defeated. So will the president's recommendation for a J2S.000 limit on income, and congress may find a way to force Mr. Byrnes to abandon the $25,000 limitation on salary which the Richard-Cohen ad viser put into law by executive order. It is likely that ceiling prices will be allowed to continue to rise under congressional pres sure, and that the farm bloc will continue to harass and em barrass the administration's anti inflation program. In short, there will be con flict, growing and continuous conflict, between the anti-new deal forces, but with the anti new dealers now for the first time in a position to effect their win upon the government through congress.

The government will be asked to shin reindeer irom Alaska to supplement the small meat supply in Oregon and Washington.
