' We cheerfully grant our colleague had something there, we mean the "when ready for it." That has been the "alibi" of ruling empires since Caesar's day, and only about ISO years ago was England's contention when our own forefathers sought to become Independent of King George III. But there IS a point there. Take Canada, for example. ' Canada could have ABSOLUTE Independence if she wished it. But she does NOT wish it. She prefers to be a part of the British Empire with a Governor-General from the "mother-land." But if this "independence" term were officially adopted, such "domin ion status" as Canada enjoys would be abandoned. 'Why FORCE any "colony" to be completely independent, if it doesn't WISH to be? Give it "self government" and let it decide for what it wants and for what it doesn't. But some people are so hypnotized by Webster's unabridged. "Independence", to them, sounds so much better than "self- government." Unless "self government" is a says where is there a nation that-would ask for MORE than the right to govern ITSELF, DO whatever a majority ofits people WISH to be done? If it wishes independence take it. Far out on 32nd Avenue a meat-shop sports a sign as follows: "Fresh horse-meat daily." One has heard very little of dirigibles in this war. the lighter- than-air craft. We don't believe the censor would object if it were stated that dirigibles are used out from the Golden Gate, to escort ships back and forth through what is still considered a possible Jap U-boat zone. A newspaper man here who has of a press service in the Balkans and environs is very pessimistic regarding any permanent peace from the Baltic to the Black sea. Ha maintains the people of Poland.

BRADY BABIES I Every little while, some proud father or mother tells me his or her son, fighting in Germany, Italy or tne pa cific is a Brady baby and once in a while the Brady Ba by p r o v es to have joined the W a cs, Waves, Spars or the Marines. You can still get the Brady Baby Book (re vised of course) Dr.- Brady if you contem plate or.have already gone Into the baby Business, dv sending wrapped In paper but not rev etted, stapled,, glued or other wise messed up, one negotiable dime and a stamped envelope bearing your address. If you are an expectant father or mother, you had better Inclose an extra dime and ask for the booklet "Preparing for Maternity" at the same time. If you are a service man or a service man's wife nev er mind the dimes. Just ask for one or both booklets, and In close stamped envelope bearing your address. It is no boast, I assure you, and indeed no particular credit to me, for after all, I'd be an awful flop it I couldn't put worth while instruction and advice in u-h form after working at it all these years. But I do bellevr that these little pocket manual; 'The Brady Baby Book" and "Preparing for Maternity" have done and are doing enough good i - , ,, mTTAm with the Commissar.

N THE SERVICES In the world to warrant this sug gestion: I give the booklets to service men and their wives without charge because I have been so impressed by the sad circum stances in many such instances. But I wish we could offer these booklets to all young parents or expectant parents on the same terms. I'll contribute my share in the authorship and the subse quent health service that grows out of the ideas in the booklets. Who will contribute the cost of printing, handling and distribut ing the booklets? There, it seems to me, Is an opportunity for some one to do his bit of philanthropy w'th a comparatively small amount of money. Some day, when America grows up, perhaps we shall teach in common school the things ev ery young father and every young mother must know about tho baby business, instead of lea lng our children to pick up what secret and, too often, false Don't Be Information they can get hold of on the q. t QUESTIONS ANSWERS Arienlc Some member! of our garden club uie the term "arsenic of lead" and In alit that la correct. I believe It la ar senate of lead, which ia so much used to destroy pesta on plants. (Mrs. P. C.) Answer You are right. Lead arsen ate is the name of the Insecticide. Chronic arsenic poisoning may occur from ingestion of residues of the spray left on green leafy vegetablea and fruits. Ordinary washing doea not cer tainly remove such residues. Rinsing in dilute hydrochloric acid (muriatic acidl solution in water removes the tracea of arsenic, If any. Such a solu tion Is prepared by diluting a pint or pound of standard medicinal Dilute Hydrochloric Add (10.) with a gal lon of water. Rinsing In running wa ter removes all of the hydrochloric eld. , Anglo-neurotic Edema My nine-year-old daughter haa Buf fered much from giant hives, mostly In summer, after swimming, eating huckleberries.

Reference Is Not a Copy I'll be glad to receive a copy of Dr. Jolllffe'a original atatement which you quoted you offered to send a copy on request (G. c. R.I Answer t have no copy.

TIRE EXCHANGE 8th and Riverside ROLE HITS 1,251 1 Salem, Ore., May 26 (U.F On June 16 a total of 1,251 mar ried couples in Oregon will be free to change the decision they made to record subject to Ore gon's now-voided community property law. The Oregon law, passed in 1943, was one of two in the United States. Last year the Ok lahoma law, from - which Ore gon's was drawn, was nullified by a decision of the U. S. su preme court. Under Oregon statute, husband and wife could, if they wished, declare that their property was owned in common. This placed them in a preferred position in paying federal income taxes. The 1945 legislature repealed that law after the court's de cision.. It also passed a bill per mitting husband and wife to change their choice and another which will save them from cer tain penalties under the gift tax law. The legislature also sent re quests! to all "common law" states, and to Oregon's represent atives in congress for the enact ment of legislation which would remove the inequalities, in the present federal income tax, as a result of the difference. The difference between "com munity property" states and "common law" states goes back a long way. The ' community property states, in which the principle that property Is owned jointly is mandatory, draw that principle from tradition and cus tom. In some southern states such as Texas and Louisiana, the idea comes from French or Span ish law. .There are seven such states, including both. Washing ton and California. But in the states where laws came chiefly from English com mon law, there is no such his torical principle. In Oregon and Oklahoma, the state legislatures attempted to change that by statute. But the supreme court held that the laws were not valid because they made a community property status optional, rather than mandatory. FOR RED CROSS Over 700 registrations have been received to date for the Red Cross learn to swim campaign which will be held at the Twin Plunges, Ashland, from June 18 to June 30. Five .schools still are to file registrations. Because of the unprecedented large number, Robert Dodge, water safety chairman, announc ed that registrations will close Monday evening, which will al low timevfor all schools whose slips are still out to get them Into the Red Cross office, county court house, which will remain opon until 5 p. m. Dodge said Saturday, "I have mllorl Ran Francisco to get an other instructor and received full cooperation . to handle the extraordinary response of . our offer to teach Jackson county children to swim. Analysis show 83 per cent of this group do not know how to swim. If we can make the arrangements we will also be able to offer the combat slmming course to SOUND TRUCK and Public Address Systems ' FOR RENT!

Free transportation arrange ments in charge of Seth Bullis, chairman of the Red Cross board, will have to be changed to meet the new situation, it was stated. Adult volunteers to supervise registration at pools, locker rooms and between swim periods are needed and those willing to assist are asked to contact the Red Cross office as soon as possible.
