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,

on a rural backporch, has been
shot for- a Chinese pheasant

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

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

seriously expect political lightning to strike twice in

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

as the time honored contest between right and wrong

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

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. '

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

to suit his or her fancy. 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".
