By Arthur Parry Citizens are now pungling up their taxes ahead of time. This is most unusual, and enough of a phenomena to cause Mr. Rip ley to draw a picture explaining it. It appears to be the citizens own exclusive idea. No politi cian has raised his voice to low er then. If this keeps up next spring the farmers will be fight ing to save the candidates, in stead of the candidates fighting to save the farmers." , Eerr Hitler ha ordered his troops in Crimea "to fight to the last man". Aa usual, Der Fuehrer is not "the last man" not even the next to the last one. Another heroic spot, is the "last ditch". Adolf, if any place in the vicinity, is in the last one near est Germany. Hunters are more careful this fall. Due to the cost and scarcity of shotgun shells, no gay-colored, O-cedar mop, dozing peacefully on a rural backporch, has been shot for- a Chinese pheasant rooster. ."Mr. and Mrs. Delos are hap py to announce that the storm. .. visited their home Tuesday morning and left a nine-pound baby boy. (Everts (Ind.) Re corder). Call his Gail! . Allied airmen knocked down 104 Jap planes for sure, and, probably 247, out of the Mew Guinea sky, the other day. A military expert asserts, "this does not mean the war is over,'' and warns against optimism. Either one or both totals Is enough to Justify the surmise, the enemy in the Pacific Is not growing stronger while getting weaker. . . - ESCAPE THEM MOT (Exchange) "Saturday evening the young and old of the Charity grange neighborhood, south east of town, were able at last to catch the newlyweds, Mr. and Mrs. James Green at the Francis Klzer home and gave them a charivari." a a "Several residents along the creek are down with the influ ence." (Wine Creek Notes). Maybe they've got the La Flaskke. Skullduggery has changed In the potato patches. The stove pipe in the middle of the sack wherein was poured all the lit tle spuds is no longer employed. The esteemed, and at times ex citable Klamath Falls News Herald, notes the following ultra-modern transgression: "One farmer, who employed a white crew including some students from Klamath Falls, reported finding 50 sacks in side other sacks in a single day's picking." Some venison sausage has showed up and is remarkable for its lack of both sausage and venison. There is, however, the usual perpondancy of soy-beans. The soy-bean is the most versa tile of vegetables. It is used to make oleomargarine, now mas querading as butter. a a Stockmen of the valley have finished counting their sheep, while awake. a MANNA FROM ON HICK U. S. Treasury department is "disbursing agricultural allot ment checks without any state ment of amount due or purpose of the individual check. Former ly when fanners received these checks they were accompanied by an itemized statement reveal ing the purpose for which the money was paid. This month they are receiving checks which look like kind gifts from a con siderate government. Next year is election year." (Oregon Voter). Vm Mall Tribune Sam Ads, Political Hara-Kiri Accordine to Dress renorta from Washlnc-ton. Wendell Willkie returns to this confident. statement: "I can have the 1944 Republican presidential nomina tion if I want it." . , . Again we wonder what unlucky fate nursues the 1040 Republican candidate that he should, time after time, lead with his chin say things he should not sav if he really wants to be the year hence. Can it be he doesn't particularly cherish the idea but being the titular head he must go through the motions. Therefore he intends at least to enjoy the luxury of making his own terms and saying precisely-what he thinks? ' Or does he believe this sort of self-confident bravado really improves his it is a mystery to this department as the Hoosier candidate course has been a a IF anything were needed to line up the GOP veterans 1 against this former Democrat, and the man who three years ago, led them to defeat; then a remark like this would do so the plain implication being that if Mr. Willkie cares to be politic he can have the Republican nomination on a silver platter, but he has not yet made up his mind it is worth it. Imagine the choleric they read this statement! And the Old Guard while pretty well discredited throughout the country, will be far from discredited and far from ineffective, in the coming Republican convention as was true in the last. If Mr. Willkie persists the convention meets he will be Willkie against the only a miracle can then prevent his defeat. That miracle happened President of Commonwealth and Southern was hit by lightning. We trust neither he nor his followers seriously expect political lightning to strike twice in the same place. Call Henry Off! We regard Vice President Wallace as an entirely sincere, utterly honest and well-meaning citizen. But he is a fanatical one where politics is concerned. And as a political fanatic, who regards the con test between the Democratic and Republican parties, as the time honored contest between right and wrong between the forces of righteousness and iniquity we believe his insistence speeches over the country, war, a most unfortunate 1X7E don't know what Henry to stay m Washington and keep his moutn shut, but in the interest of the war effort and national good feeling, whatever the be met For his recent line is as we see it doing real harm! His latest contribution in Dallas, Texas, is little short of an invitation to organized labor, to rise in its might, and use force branch of Big Business still arrayed against it. Mr. .Wallace was speaking before a labor audi ence, which we feel makes rehensible, for it is clearly the duty of a man in his important government position, particularly at such a time as the present, not to arouse class feeling but do everything in his ppwer Yet in conclusion he shouted to the representa tives of organized labor before him : "If it Is a matter of power against power, let us meet power with power it the time shall cornel" a a a a a WHAT if a representative of Big Business should come before a convention of the United States Chamber of Commerce for example, and repeat such a challenge if organized labor doesn't do what we say let us meet power with power! ' ' "Come the revolution!" What nonsense and at a time like this what dan gerous and pernicious nonsense. Some good friend of Henry's should persuade him to return to Washington and devote his surplus energies to Indian wrestling, boomerang shooting, or some equally harmless and INARTICULATE pur suit. .- ' - A Rare Speaking of the United States Chamber of Com merce, a movement has been started to place that or ganization's president, Mr. Sric Johnston of Spokane, in the race for the Republican presidential nomina tion. Well, the GOP might go farther and fare worse. In fact a glance over the files of this newspaper will show that last May, the suggestion was made in this c61umn when the writer attended the annual USCC convention in New York. Here is a rare type of citizen, at least, a level and clear-headed business man, who realizes the good old days are gone, never to return is glad of it but ftraily believes neither communism, socialism, nor any other "ism" supplies the answer to it " Mr. Johnston is convinced the present American competitive system is not only best for the upper brackets but the lower ones also, for humanity, the rank-and-file the country en masse. That is the firm conviction of this department, so naturally we would like to see the next President of the United States, share it.

WHEN YOU LOS Class A neurotics really have, something the matter, generally not with the nervous system, but pernaps some c ardiovascular d e g e neration (heart - artery wearing out), or some nutri tional deficien cy such as mild pellagra or undiagnosed chronic gall bladder trou oie w 1 1 n or without sail. enronic gastrointestinal rl !. of one kind or another, or ane mia, or chronic carbon monoxide anoxia, or chronic lead poison ing, or incipient pulmonary tu berculosis, or unrecognized hy perthyrroidlsm le x o p hthalmic goitre presenting less than usual wideness, prominence or staring of eyes). These are a few of the conditions that too often mas querade as "neurasthenia" or "just nerves." Persons with such diseases gravitate into Class B eventually for two. reasons. First, because the doctors they do consult, ob- sessed with the notion that "ner vousness" or "neurasthenia" is a real condition or factor, are content to dismiss them with a prescription for a nerve sedative or "tonic" and some hackneyed advice about the need of a good rest and relaxation. Second, necause sucn patients, once so inoculated by. a physician, espe cially if he be a "specialist" or the head man in a well adver tised "clinic", are likely to have ilttle or no further truck with doctors, at least not with ordi nary doctors, and coast alone feeling sorry for themselves and their poor "nerves ' a frame of mind which readily carries them into Class B. . It is not entirely due to the in competence or indifference of the physician first consulted tha a neurotic gravitates to Class B. Two other factors are concerned in the production of nervous wrecks. First, the patient , gets the idea that he or she knows as much or more than the ordinary doctor knows about "nerves and will not accept any advice or opinion which does not seem JOSEPHINE SEEKS Grants Pass, Oct. 20 (SpD H. B. Brown, former road engi neer here, was offered his old position at $300 a month by the Josephine county . court in ses sion Tuesday. When informed of the action, Brown did not indi cate his decision immediately, but stated that he "wanted sev eral days to think it over." ' Brown, a registered engineer. served. as Josephine county road engineer for nearly nine years, his connection ending three years ago. - ' Since leaving Grants Pass, Brown has worked at the Med ford airport and for the city of Ashland. For the past two years he has been in the office of the Jackson county road depart ment at Medford. . ' USED CAR SALES ON FIRST COME BASIS A recent OPA regulation pro vides for penalties in the case of any dealer who refuses to sell new passenger automobiles on a "first come, first served basis to persons who present ration certificates, according to the local war price and ration ing board. Eligibility requirement for new cars have been tightened, however, board members re port. Any person who has sold his car since January 1, 1942, mush show absolute proof that the car was unserviceable fot his driving needs, even though he might otherwise be eligible for a certificate to purchase a new car.

Second. there is the factor of stinginess reluctance on the part of per sons oi moderate means or even persons of wealth to spend good money for a proper or complete medical examination when, by assuming that the trouble is "nerves" they can worry along on jome nostrum, some freak "drugless" treatment or on self treatment. Let me leave this thought with Class A neurotics and those in the borderland of Class B. It is a well recognized fact, based on solid scientific ground, on our knowledge of physiology and on ordinary everyday observation, that a so-called "brain worker' or white collar worker requires less sleep for refreshment and restoration than a manual la borer, one who works (or plays) nam with his muscles does. This fact ought to raise some doubt in the mind of any intelligent, person who attributes his ill health to "nerves" or "nervous weakness".
