But that bus trip can't give THAT much. e e e Saturday night probably had something to do with it. The last trip south only S. P. passengers were allowed aboard. But this time, the "Welcome" sign was out for all and sundry it was nice for hitch-hikers, but not so nice for the customers, or getting the trip over quickly. B However again the law of compensation worked. Somewhere around Hilt or was it HornbrookT the bus swerved and squeaked to a stop and a trio from "Tobacco Road" clambered on led by a toothless, unshaven gentleman who waved a crutch in one hand, while he chewed on a corn-paper clgaret and voiced hearty salutations to the assembled multitude. He was followed by a dour, pasty-faced gent, bearing a huge tent-pack over his shoulder, while No. 3 Dickens (or Bobby Burns), with bis head and a fiddle under one as the trio passed by a strong aroma of splrltus frumenti reminis cent of the home-bfew era, assailed the editorial nostrils. There were no empty seats ference almost Immediately the squeaky notes of "Turkey In the Straw" came over the air and WHAT airl the calls for an old fashioned square dance were given and the entire bus-load only a few degrees from asphyxiation, perked up and until ,Yreka was reached had quite a gay time. There the strange trio alighted with the crutch was not the cripple but the man with the fiddle, who, the entertainment over, demanded his crutch, was given same, wherewith he proceeded of the Inn, over which a purple Neon sign announced "cocktails."

BIRTHS TAYLOR To Coxswain and Mrs. Earl F., 140 Spring, Feb. IS, 104S, a girl, weighing pounds at Community Hospital. JONES To Mr. and Mrs Willie, Rt. 2, Box 20-3, Feb. 14, 1943, a boy weighing 3 pounds at community Hospital, (lea Mail Tribune Weal Ana, News Behind The News By Paul Mallon Washington, Feb. 15 The $40,000,000,000 RFC Job which Mr. Wallace reached for and missed, was next to have been tossed by the White House crowd to Marriner Eccles, federal reserve chair man, who at least knows s omething about the na tion s nnanciai Peal Halloa base of capi talistic opera tions. Eccles declined at once, saying he wanted to keep his present post. At a meeting of the top men around Mr. Roosevelt (Jimmy Byrnes, Marvin Jones, et al) it was decided all would get be hind Fred Vinson, Kentucky ex-congressman, who has been an unostentatious assistant to Byrnes, directing economic sta bilization. ... WINSON could no doubt be V confirmed as senators gen erally have given him a good caliber rating since he proved his common sense and showed quite a bit of ability as chair man of the tax subcommittee in the house. Coming up from a small-town lawyer to his congressional job, he found it insecure because his Kentucky district was always apt to go republican. The White House gave him his judgeship on the court of appeals, from which security he resigned to help Byrnes at White House request. Some inside work is being i done, however, to get some one ( with more experience in fi nance to do Mr. R.'s bidding in RFC, and some rather formid able people are trying to get Joseph P. Kennedy back in the government. Here is as good a man as the new deal ever had, whose career has been an lionic tragedy. He ' was ridden out of the London ambassadorship because he -approved the Munich appease ment which Mr. Roosevelt also approved, but with recrimina tion. Fanatics have carried out a hate and smear campaign against him since then without any justification, sometimes call ing him "fascist" or worse. He was for Munich because he Knew Britain was not prepared for war and neither were we. DUT what will gall any sense: of justice is that Kennedy has given more to the war than any other of those public de ceivers who have made a good war business out of running him down. He has suffered one son kUled, a son-in-law killed after six weeks of marriage to his daughter, a second son so seri- ously injured ramming a Jap ! destroyer he has not yet re-! covered Three of the highest military decorations have come to the family. A third son Is in the navy, and a daughter is doing Red Cross work in France. You never hear of these things, only the sly curses of agitators, liv ing and fattening off the war by selling bitterness and hate against good Americans for high fees. If there Is -a more ironical example of the murderous na ture of American politics today, I have not heard of It. The story explains why so few big men care to enter public service. MO one else Is better fitted ' by experience or politics for the Jones job, but Kennedy probably will not get it. Fervor of witnesses appear ing for both Wallace and Aubrey Williams (nominated to head REA) ran to the skies. Here were two men dropped by Mr. Roosevelt for the campaign. Williams, formerly youth ad ministrator and WPA deputy, had not been popular and left the government before election. Like Wallace he was considered radical and much of a load on the administration. Yet, Imme diately after election both were named for bigger Jobs than they had lost, and many men and women flocked to the senate to claim that the good of the coun try required the services of these two (presumably only be tween elections.) e e . fHE answer to this enthusl- asm, as the listening senators made it out, was that in com merce Wallace would control 130,000 jobs, while rural elec trification is planning an ex pansion for 'postwar which would also give the harassed radicals (chased from the gov ernment by the Dies committee How to Hold 1 False TEETH , More Firmly In Place Do your f.!t tevth annoy and m i barrens by lipping, dropping or wat bllng when you cat, laugh or talbtf Just I inrtnkla a little FASTEETH on your I plntet.

Get rASTEKTU today at any drug tore, j P W1 Letter From Washington Br HARRIS ELLSWORTH Member of Congress From Oregon WALLACE APPOINTMENT. Lately I have been receiving letters and nostcards not only from my district, but from vari ous parts of the country, urging me to vote aRainst confirming the appointment of Henry Wal lace. Only the Unltea states sen ate votes on such confirmation. The House has no voice. In this instance, it happens that the House of Representa tives may Indirectly influence the action of the Senate when that body votes on Mr. Wallace shortly after March 1st. The Senate passed a bill, known as thn r.snrffe Bill, which the Presi- ! dent has already announced he -;. M.. ,hi-h win mwvw - will become law when passed by the House, would take all of the financial agencies including RFC out from under the Juris diction of the Secretary of Com merce. Although the George Bill Is good legislation and would likely pasa on its own merits, it was unquestionably Introduced in an effort to make the Wallace appointment palatable to a ma jority of the Senators. In other words, it is generally believed that the Senate will confirm the Wallace appointment if his duties are merely those of a Secretary of Commerce with no authority over the thirty or forty billion dollars controlled by the lend ing agencies. If the House passes the George BUI as it stands, the Senate will confirm the Wallace appoint ment. If 'the House rejects the George BUI, it Is more than likely the Senate wUl reject Wallace. Thus, Indirectly, the House may decide the fate of Wallace. The House Banking and Cur rency Committee has reported out the George Bill without amendment. It now lies in the Rules Committee. Apparently, a majority of the Rules Commit tee or tne tiouse aoes not ibvoi bringing the bill on the Floor. There are several moves possi ble: (1) The Rules Committee may keep the bill pocketed un til after the Senate votes on Mr. Wallace: (2) the bill may be brought to the Floor and amend- ed: (3) the bill may be brought to the Floor ana recommittea to the Banking and Currency Com mittee with instructions that it not be reported out again until after the Senate has voted on the Wallace confirmation; (4) the bill may come out any time and be either passed or rejected by the House. e . CENSUS TAKES MANPOW ER. This week the firm control of the House by the Democrats i was sharply revealed. A resold tion to approve the six million dollar appropriation item for a nation-wide farm census was passed by a vote of 198 to 171. with only one Republican vot ing for the resolution. This Is a patronage bill and will call for the employment of nearly thirty thousand census takers. The amazing thing is, the same House of Representatives, controlled by the same majority, only four days before passed a drastic bill to draft manpower for war in dustry work. Apparently the ma jority does not feel that man power is so seriously short as to prevent the employment of thirty thousand party workers in non-essential activity. e e e SOLDIER VOTE RESULTS, It may be recalled that those of us who fought so vigorously to prevent the adoption of the un constitutional federal ballot a few months ago were accused 'of attempting to prevent people in the armed forces from voting. What we actually did was draft a bill and pass it that not only made it possible for service peo ple to vote, but provided them a legal ballot. Last week, the Secretary of War made his re port on the balloting by service personnel. This report clearly indicates that the President was entirely wrong when he told or the pre-election trend of po litical events) a good place to return and alight for longer than the duration. Congress will block the whole i plan. It Is convinced these steps could bring socialism (aster than anything else. The government could finally own aU business by the process of lending it more and more money Just as banks acquire businesses by lending processes. TRUCKS FOR RENT Drive Yourself Save Vi .

Further more, in the ten states which ap proved the federal ballot, only 28,136, or 2.2 per cent, of the eligible persons used the fed eral ballots, while in those same states, 446,974 used the state ab sentee ballots. MEMBERS ENJOY OREGON PEARS. This week the organi sation of the Hew Republican Members of the 78th Congress and the new Members In the present Congress, which is gen erally referred to as the 78-79 Club, enjoyed a treat of some Oregon Cornice pears. The pears were sent to me by State Sena tor Earl Newbry of Ashland for presentation at the Tuesday night meeting. To say that this fruit was enjoy.d is an under statement. I am still hearing praise from the Members on the quality and flavor of Oregon pears. The 78-79 Club, formerly known as the 78 Club, is an in teresting and valuable institu tion. New Members have num erous common problems which are discussed at our wecisiy meetings. It Is customary also to have guest speakers of national prominence. After such a speak er . makes his formal talk, we have a question period which lasts an hour or more. Last week, Eric Johnston, youthful and dy namic president of the United States Chamber of Commerce, was our guest, and gave us some off-the-record and highly inter esting observations on his trip to Russia. Grapeshot Relic la Found By Workman Near Buckshot Hill Andrew J. Simpson reports that while working on a road in the Buckshot Hill district re cently he found a hand-made grapeshot. He surmises it might have been fired In an early-day fight with Indians in that sec tion. The settlers, of which Simpson's father was one, pos sessed a small Civil War type cannon which was used in rout ing Indians, after they had raid ed and burned the Simpson homestead on what is now Med ford. Simpson's father took part in the fray which ended when the redskins were defeated at the Battle of Table Rock. Simpson turned the grape-shot over to the Pierce Auto company, where It is on display.

( Farmer SayaiMoth Balls Put Pep In Faithful Old Car Marshall, Ark., (U.R) When Frank Barton, farmer of near here, got his Old overcoat jut of the closet where it had been In storage all summer, he found he also had more fuel for his faithful Ford. Barton has a theory that by putting moth balls in the gaso line tank one ball to a gallon of gasoline he gets more power and more mileage. The moth balls also are supposed to clean the carbon from the cylin der and pistons. Barton cautions not to fill the tank more than halt full oftgas wnen using the moth balls, as extra gas is generated. He said that he only uses the moth balls every other month, since that is sufficient to keep the carbon cleaned out. He was out of moth balls and could buy none at the drug store but found plenty in the pockets of the overcoat when he got it out of storage.

In addition to this, the society has a standing reward of $100 for Information which leads to the conviction of anyone on this charge, it was said. The law applies to any portion of a raw fish, the society states. The statement was issued fol lowing a call from Mrs. R. R.

Mrs. McConochie stated that the dog had been roaming in the vicinity of the Washington school and grocery.
