"A little handful of men In New York City, who probably never saw a bale of cotton .or a single one of the millions of acres of cotton land of the South, have decided to put ceiling on the price the farmer can get for his cotton.. A fixed price on a farm commodity that has no fixed cost This by and from a special clique of men who own no cotton and grow not one bale of cotton and prob ably would not be able to tell the -difference between a bale of cotton and a bale of hay." (Cong. Record.) Das Mall Ttuma Was ate' Of Japan's Complete Defeat -By Louis F. Keemle United Press War Analyst The Cairo conferees,, in passing sentence on Japan in advance of her defeat, have made plain their complete confidence that the defeat will be total and uncompromising. In recognizing how difficult the allies merely emphasized their determination by declaring their will to "persevere in the'serlous and prolonged operations neces sary to procure the unconditional surrender of Japan."' To Lose War-Won Territories The sentence Imposed does not seem unduly harsh, since It goes no further than depriving Japan of by force or Illegally since the turn It nevertheless means that Japan will be powerless to resume her campaign to conquer east Asia and all of the western and southern Pacific. The broad declaration of principles, moreover, leaves much unsaid. It is likely to be extended later to insure that Japan cannot rebuild her military all over again from scratch, as she That would imply demilitarization of Japan and restrictions on her armaments and capacity to produce the materials of war. That Is a point on which China Is likely to be insistent, with the pfobable acquiescence of the allies. China is too close to Japan, victim of her aggression to take any chances on the future. The Chinese position has not been proclaimed officially, but it appears to hava been reflected with reasonable accuracy In a report by Prof. Yuan Chen, member of the People's Political Council, pre pared recently for the foreign policy association. ' Chines Want End of Jap Threat "The Chinese . . . want Japan deprived of Its teeth and claws so that It will never again be in a of neighboring countries. . "Japan must be completely prived of its navy. Its naval bases must be demolished. Its arma ment factories every factory capable of making the instruments of war must be confiscated. "The Japanese military clique longer have a standing army. It must be made completely lnocuous. not only for the next 10 or 20 years, but for at least a century."

Readers should address inquiries toi Dr. William Brady.' 2SS El Caxoiso. Beverly Hills. Calif. .... OH. OH, HERE I Writing on the stationery of, let us say.

I have frequently turned on a small fan while we were working. Re- Dr. Brady cently the doctor fell ill with what was diagnosed pneu- monla. He has mentioned sev eral times that he believes the fan was the cause of 'his getting sick. I can't believe it is so, but in spite of myself the thought maybe" keeps sneaking In upon me and makes me feel uneasy . . . (Miss H. W.) , I am glad to learn, for once, that the Dr. Doe In this in stance is not a physician at all, but a dentist. Not that physi cians do not harbor, the delusion the dentist harbors. Plenty of quaint old-timers, aged thirty, fifty, seventy years, are afraid of breezes, drafts, perceptible motion of the air,' dampness, sudden changes, chilly air, night air they make life mis erable for themselves and for their patients trying to : dodge the Imaginary dangers in such "exposure." A letter like that reminds me that one derives a great deal of comfort from the knowledge that there Is no harm and no danger Involved in such ex posure in any circumstance. A lot of misguided folk do a lot of worrying over the possible ill effects of exposure of that kind, both for themselves and for their children or perhaps for invalids or feeble elderly persons under their care or pro tection. . Whatever I say about the harmlessness of such exposure to cold, wet, chilling, drafts, etc. here, I never attempt to Impose my conviction, my knowledge of the matter upon friends or acquaintances who News Behind The News By Paul Mallon (Continued from Pag One) 10 times ours. From the begin ning, Mr. Roosevelt has attempt ed to act as peacemaker between the two, being rather in the position of a neutral moderator. While at the time of Madame Chiang Kai-shek's visit the Chi nese expressed dissatisfaction with the extent of our help, the friendly situation' was exhibited by the fact that Mr. Roosevelt invited Madame Chiang into his own press conference to let her express her critical views, and she was. invited to make an address to a Joint session of congress. e e ' TTHE underlying - difficulties 'with our .relations with Rus sia, on the . other hand, have been discussed more openly. A report which Donald- Nel son .made to the government upon his return from Moscow outlined the economic situation which, of course, is a funda mental corollary of the political and military agreements, and perhaps the most Important for the long run. Mr. Nelson is understood to have reported that Stalin (with whom he had a conference of IVi hours) en visaged a 20-year redevelop ment and construction program for Russia for the postwar period. For this, large quantities of American manufactured goods would be needed. He told Nel son he preferred our products to those of the British, or the Germans, some of which he received in his agreements with the Nazis before the war, and much of which his troops have captured on the fields of battle since. e e ALSO, he Is supposed to have serious competition to the Unit ed States In selling consumer! goods, but that she could offer! us certain raw materials in which we are' lacking, such as manganese, tungsten, etc. i How these extremely difficult matters will , work out In the final settlement when they get down to details of course can not even be guessed now. But there la an exceptionally hope ful and friendly attitude toward Russia by the business element of the new deal, such as Nelson ably represents, men who do not deal with the political aspects. According to an . estimate of U. S. engineers. Oregon's streams present hydroelectric potential of approximately 6,000,0,00 horsepower ' & frit: w OREGON, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1943 T COMES AGAIN believe In catching "cold" in that way although sometimes I cannot help chuckling or even bursting out in a guffaw over the way they behave. People who think they know better about such things than I do sometimes write to toll me about it. They flabbergast me by challenging me to prove my contention. I can't prove it. Nobody can prove a negative. It Is for the. doctor who asserts that exposure to cold, wet, draft or chilling from insuf ficient clothing causes any dis ease or illness to prove it QUESTIONS A ANSWERS Dandruff Will tou please give the recipe for the pomade for dandruff, which we found In your column years ago and used- with great satisfaction. .
