great peril.
The federal tax situation con
tinues muddled In congress.
The general opinion holds there
is plenty of tax money but too
many bureaucrats to spend it.
The more tenderhearted com

about how Germany will be
governed after defeat ' If the
hate of the world continues to
mount at its current rate, at the
vandalism of the Teuton, there
mil be no Germany to govern.
JOURNALISTIC MEEKNESS!
i (Siskiyou News)
i "The most significant tip
off we can give you. is that
your correspondent has not
' been fishing in over a year,
has been hunting for a few
hours only twice in that time,
and does not even answer in
sulting letters promptly any
more." v.
... ..... ...
, The mud is reported as thick
on the Russian front as in a
Jackson county political cam
paign fight with everybody mad
at everybody else.
The scarcity of ammunition
.for bird shooting, scheduled to
open October 16, has caused a
decline in the use of No Hunt
ing signs as targets. Farmers
can stoop over in their barn
yards with impunity. . ;
"Washington absentmlnde dly
lets it drop that our navy has
grown from 1,076 vessels to
14,072 In three years. It is not
believed, though, that this will
either aid or comfort the foe."
(Oregonian.) Or, grounds. . for
gloom by Secretary of the Navy
Knox. , .
' The nation, which is never
without its alleged shortage, is
now running out of cigarettes,
and by next year there will be
a , famine in all the leading
brands. This will cause a de
mand for pipes, the smokers of
which are already short of
cleaners. This will force tobac
co addicts back to the "Mis
souri meerschaum," or corn-cob
variety, or the grim necessity of
rolling their own, a trick now
seldom seen -outside a -cowboy
movie, '.. . . .;
" Deputy Sheriff B. Grenbemer
has rounded up a picture of the
Main Stem, taken in 1896. The
Allen, nee Nash hotel, with a
first story porch, from which
sheets are being aired, looms up
prominently. So does the north
flank of Roxy Ann which has
not changed a bit, though the
hotel has. Two white horses,
remembered by County Judge
Blin Coleman, attached to a low
rakish dray, are making a turn.
while a boy on a bicycle where
the city watering trough now
stands looks on. At Main and
Central there is Saturday p.m
congestion of horse-drawn ve
hicles There is not a soldier

SOCIETY EDITOR ILL!
" "A woman giving the name of
J.. C. Jones, who is reported to
be one of the social leaders of
the city and claims to reside at
1749 Capital Hill avenue, is said
to have given what pnrported
to be a reception yesterday after
noon. It is understood that
considerable number. Tf i so
called guests, reported to be
ladies notorious in society
circles,- were present, and some
of them are quoted as saying
thev had enjoyed the occasion
It is charged that .Bower furn
ished the alleged refreshments
and Stringham the purported
music. The hostess is said to
have worn a necklace of alleged
pearls which she declares was
given to her by her reputed hus
band." (Excnange.) Ana,
courthouse reporter take over,
It is hardly an exaggeration to state that but for
Russia, Great Britain and the United States would
today be defeated nations.
This is certainly true of Great Britain. Had Hitler
in June 1941 turned all his power against England
and North Africa, instead of against Soviet Russia,
Great Britain with all her fortitude and courage could
hardly have stood up against it.
And while the defeat of England might not have
resulted also in the defeat of the United States, be
cause of our great distance from Germany and our
unlimited resources, this much is reasonably cer
tain :
GERMANY COULD THEN NEVER HAVE BEEN
BEATEN!
Yes without England as a U. S. base, and without
the aid of the British fleet, we would have been
powerless to strike Nazi Germany effectively any
where in Europe, and then, of course, with the Anglo
American forces practically out of it, Hitler could
have concentrated upon the U.S.S.R., and only some
miracle, not readily imaginable at this time, could
have saved Europe from complete domination by the
Axis.
JNDER such circumstances England and the United
States would be ingrates indeed, if they did not
feel the deepest gratitude toward Russia and wish
to do everything within their power to repay the debt
on one hand, and cooperate in every conceivable way
with Russia, in the common purpose of making the
defeat of Germany COMPLETE, on the other.
And this undoubtedly IS the feeling in both Eng
land and the United States. '
From one of the most UNpopular countries in
English-speaking lands, Soviet Russia, since she re
sisted invasion so gallantly, has become one of the
most POPULAR, this popularity extending into all
walks of life, and as is usual in such matters, in some
quarters, the feeling has gone to needless extremes.
UOWEVER in this COUNTRY AS A WHOLE, a
pretty sane emotional balance has been main
tained.
Uncle Sam is EXTREMELY grateful, he could
hardly be otherwise. He wishes to bring this terrible
war to as immediate and complete a termination as
possible, and he realizes that without the fullest and
most whole-hearted cooperation with Soviet Russia
this will be impossible. That he wishes to give.
-.- .
AT the same time, "Uncle's" definition of coopera
" tion is One of MUTUAL service, as well as mutual
obligation, hot a one-sided arrangement for either
party. ' . :
And while his gratitude is boundless, and his desire
to aid Russia, practically limitless, this does not mean
he wishes to JOIN the communist party, necessarily;
become a "yes man" to any and every Kremlin dic
tum; or insist that a silver-plated halo be fitted imme
diately to Comrade Stalin's head.
The United States wishes to fight with Russia "to
the death", as she fights with Great Britain arid all
the other United Nation allies; not yielding an inch
until complete victory has been won. But this does
NOT mean, that if Soviet Russia advocates something
the American people or their leaders believe is wrong,
or stands for something they can't consistently
endorse, or proposes some action they believe would
jeopardize the allied cause, that they can't criticize
and oppose the same as vigorously and uncompromis
ingly as they would, if the proposal came from any
other source, -and above all without being accused
of siding with the classes against the masses, or giving
aid and comf ort to the unholy Fascist cause I
VET that is the Browder line in this country and
. that of his fellow communists, as those who have
seen the texts of .the recent Browder speeches will
agree.
It s a great mistake as we see it I ,
And one, if persisted in might well lead to the very
misfortune it is presumably designed to prevent, i.e. :
An impairment of that complete and mutual confi
dence and good will and cooperation which has exist
td between the United States and Russia in this war,
and should continue uninterrupted and unimpaired
until the complete and final victory has been won!
Promoters of Irascibility . :'.
Senator Buck of Delaware has introduced a
"money" bill in the Senate which will receive .wide
spread, popular, support It would require' the with
drawal of all pennies minted since December 23 and
prohibit further coinage of pieces "not rapidly dis
tinguishable from coins of other denominations."
: The new "coppers" which look like a dime with
which the country is now being flooded are breeders
of irascibility and it will be difficult to convince the
public that any metal shortage can be so acute as to
rrtalra fVtia'miiaannA'rtnnooaarv ' '' t
Every time a citizen finds one of these coins in nis
pocket, he instinctively wonders whether he has been
gypped out of nine cents, and then he wants a bucket
of tar and feathers for the individual wno invented
them.

OVEREATING AND MALNUTRITION
of Infants, children, iwaa du. to lack of vitamin
Millions
youths and acV'.ts of the middle
or well-to-do
classes as well
as the poor in
America suffer
from malnu
trition alt ho
they are not
deprived of
food at all, in
fact most of
them overeat.
Malnutrition
does not mean
wasting, ema
ciation, under-

Dr. Brady
weight or undersize necessarily.
Most persons with malnutrition
are of normal average size and
weight or overweight, and for
that reason the manifestations
of their malnutrition are often
attributed to sheer laziness,
carelessness or stupidity.
In the medical, physiological
or health sense of the word, nu
trition is "the sum of the pro
cesses by which an animal or
plant takes in and utilizes food
substances . The processes con
cerned in building up cells and
tissues or the protoplasm of
which they are composed, and
its destruction incidental to
life, liberty and the pursuit I
mean the chemical changes in
the cells and tissues by which
energy is provided for the vital
functions and for the perform
ance of muscular work and new
material is supplied for repair
of wear and tear, is technically
termed metabolism.
Now it should be obvious that
when doctors speak of malnutri
tion they do not mean that the
poor child doesn't get enough
to eat nor that the condition can
be prevented or corrected by
providing milk or other food
for children in school.
Many individuals who have
little appetite are overweight or
obese, and many who have a
good appetite and consume
more than the average amount
of food are underweight. More
over, we know from every day
observation that many individ
uals who are overweight or
obese and frequently indulge in
"gorges on candy, sweets,
sugar, nevertheless do not quite
satisfy the hunger they feel,
the constant hunger that drives
them to such excesses even
though they know effect is only
aggravation of their condition.
Describing mild vitamin B de
ficiency Drs. Vorhaus, Williams
and Waterman (Jour. A.M.A.,
11, 16, '35) said:
Mild deficiency of vitamin
Bl usually goes unrecognized.
There are vague pains, usually
elicited only by pressure over
tbe nerve roots, general malaise,
anorexia (lack" of appetite) and
constipation. Small amounts of
sugar may be present in the
urine, without hyperglycemia
(loo much sugar in the blood).
There is usually a large carbo
hydrate (sugar and starch) In
take, often associated with a
tendency to obesity. These cases
are frequently classified as po
tential obesity.

' QUESTIONS A ANSWERS
Brown or Rc4 Hrttcr Tlmn (Ireen
I believe you have stated that the
Iron and acimonlum eltr&te you rec
ommend lor th. horn, made tonic
comes In "garnet red scales or gran
ule." and makes a reddish or brown
dear solution la water. Our druggist
says green scales or granulos of iron
and ammonium citrate, making a
green solution In water, Is the samo
thing. (S.C.P.)
Answer' wen, your druggist IS vir
tually, not absolutely, oorreot. The
garnet-red softie, or granules of Iron
and ammonium citrates contain a lit
tle more Iron than the green Kales
or granules of green Iron and am
monium citrates. The green kind is
sometimes preferred for fimlnlstn-
tlon by Injection, altho "shots" of
any Iron preparation are generally too

Oleomargarine
You any oleomargarine !. whole
some to use when butter Is not avail
able. A book by the chief chemist
and assistant chief chemist of John
Hopkins university tells how blind
ness, especially in chldren In Den
mark during the first World War
was caused by consuming oleomar
garine Instead of butter. (CP.)
Answer If It does It misrepresent
the facta. Any nutritional deficiency
that may have occurred from the use
ot oleomargarine In place of butter
A (and
perhaps also to lack of vitamin D)
In the oleomargarine In Denmark.
Th. oleomargarine sold In America
today must have pro-vltamln A (car
otene) added, to comply with fed
eral regulation. Moreover, there U no
such shortage of various food sources
of th. essential vitamin. In America
aa there was In Denmark then.
