Guy Cordon of Roseburg returned home last week on a brief visit, and roasted the al leged beef shortage to a golden bfown. He stated there were 30 million more cows In the land than ever before, with steaks al most as scarce as hen's teeth. He hinted it was time to grab the bull by the horns. The Japan war leaders have called on the entire empire to commit suicide and have the best wishes of the rest of the world. It was warm enough Fri. 'to remind people of the uneven dis tribution of the shade, and cause citizens with straw hats to stay in it Next Fri. is the longest day of the year, and the official start of summer (If any). e Haying Is the order of the day in the rural regions. It looks like the hay would be sacrificed next winter at around $30 per ton. About one-sixth of the voters lined up at the polls last Tues. The remainder lined up at the golf lynx on the river bank and willy-nilly. This Is Father's Day.

He wears a corncob pipe in the handkerchief pocket of his coat, and smokes cigarettes, the supply of which is getting back to normal. Another cautious townsman is Walt Leveretto, the pear, cow, equestrian, and movie man, accoutred in both belt and suspenders. e The laws passed by the last legislature went into effect Fri. All are breakable, and oi'tslde of adding to the sum total of laws accomplish little.

San Francisco, June 14 Well, anyway, we had our timine rieht. Decided the plenary sessions would start about Wednesday of this week, and they did. The iirst one was last night at 8 :30. . It was distinguished chiefly by the appearance of Senator Vandenberg of Michigan (after a long hiber nation) as U. S. spokesman for Committee 4 on Ke- gional Arrangements." The Senator gave a typica senatorial sneech. rather flamboyant and declama tory, but it appealed to the gallery and we believe to the Senator. Senator V. was followed by Dr. Francisco Castillo Naiera. snokesman for the Mexican delegation, a . " . . , i i ji; j 1. i i. 1 chocolate-coiorea, ciour-iooning mcuviuuat; out ne. too. became rather oratorical. In fact, when the inter preter (one of half a dozen) delivered the effort in French he became so stimulated by the flights of elo mience therein that he waved his arms, shook his fore finger in the air and at the close appeared both physi cally and emotionally exhausted I Franklv'it'all did not amount to much. For there was no contest really the committee was unanimous in its report, and it all stewed down to a sort of mutual admiration society, Senator Van- rlenherp- nraisine the other members for their RE MARKABLE work; and the other members of the committee praising him for the same thing. It WAS a victory, however, for the Good Neigh bor rjolicv and the Pan-American ideal. For at the start of the conference it did look for a time as though the Pan-American countries might walk out if they failed to get charter recognition of their cherished "Act of Chapultepec." This pact placed north and south America m a regional alliance to maintain" peace and put down military aggression within their own borders. For originally this was in terpreted as a threat to the authority of the proposed world organization. But, according to report, it was "Commander Stas sen" who finally solved this difficulty. The sirrnators of the Act of Chapultepec were al lowed to function as planned, and take action in "self- defense" acainst aggression when and if it occurred ; the United Nations to step in only when the disturb ance threatened. world peace. Or to express the idea more elegantly, and in the exact words of the senior Senator from Michigan we quote : The Act of Chapulteoec, tnat most precious iiower 01 cooperation for security through peaceful means, has thus formed the foremost link In the global chain of security and peace." Slightly mixed in metaphor but In plain English the Act of Chapultepec was sub ordinated to the United Nations pact, but became the low-eear in the four-speed international engine, DE SIGNED to promote and maintain world peace. So that's thatl f All of which is to the good, but, as before stated, not Particularly exciting. The second plenary session at 10:30 this morning had more action and color, the reason being there WAS a contest. It is difficult perhaps impossible to make it clear to our readers why there should have been one, for at a distance it must have appeared inconsequen tial to the point of nonsense, to-wit : SHOULD the phrase "SECURITY" in conformity with the principles of justice and international law be incorporated in the charter at the start of a cer tain section, or at its close. That is what all the shooting was about The big powers won as usual. And also as usual NOT on a democratic basis. For in the committee a majority favored the in clusion of the term at the start and in the commission (or open session) this morning it was a tie vote. But as where amendments are concerned, not a majority but a two-thirds vote is required, the motion was lost. Yet the basis of democracy is: the majority RULES! co the term "in conformity with the principles of justice" will not appear where the question of military action against an offender is concerned; but only where final adjudication of the conflict comes up for consideration. The entire question does seem inconseauential. And yet it isn't entirely. For as both Lord Halifax and ex-Governor Stassen pointed out in the debate: The supreme purpose of this United Nations charter is to prevent another war. That comes above everything else. And to do that speed immediate action is im perative. Both called attention to the function of a police man in case of trouble say he runs into a group of men shooting it out What does the policeman do? Ask which side is right or wrong, just or unjust? Nol He can't waste time as a judge or jury; he wades in to stop the fight And AFTER it is stopped, not BEFORE, the iury and the judge come In, to decide the right or wrong of this disturbance of the peace, j So, with this charter to maintain peace. The ; theorv is and we believe it the correct one act 1 FIRST! Stop the nation that threatens to disturb the peace i PERIOD! (As Commander Stassen said.) j And then and only then bring up the ethics of the problem, and decide those. j But if thi3 new organization has to decide FIRST I whether one side of a controversy Is right or the other, by the time that decision -has been made the fat will be in the fire, and this poor, crippled world -will be off to another conflict. For once let a war get to a certain point of development and good night! nothing but more war a WORLD war can STOP it! R.W.R. Your Health and It's Care By DR. WILLIAM BRADY.

We learned, you will remember, Charles, from the article about Tristan da Cunha in the November, 1938, number of National Geographic Magazine, that the people there never brush their teeth, live on potatoes, some whole cereals brought from England, fish and crayfish, sea birds and their eggs, and occasionally, say on Christmas or other festive occa sion, some lamb or mutton they raise sheep for the wool. Re member also that when the den tist from the British war ship ex amined 156 of the Inhabitants, ranging in age from childhood to 92 years, he found 131 of them with teeth entirely free from dental decay. Now there is a fact that far outweighs anything the school textbooks on hygiene or health, the hygiene teacher, the dentist, the physician, or Ol' Doc Brady may think or say about the rite of Crushing the teeth. It might be possible to find that many persons with perfect teeth if a similar examination of several million mouths were made by a dentist here in Ameri ca, but remember the people on. the island of Tristan da Cunha are white people of mixed Eng lish, American, Scottish, Dutch and Italian descent. Here is what I recommend. Charles, to preserve the teeth and' prevent decay: uooa nutrition. Dally con sumption of not less than a quart of milk. Make milk, straight or flavored as you like, your regular beverage when you want refreshment. Eat a green leafy or raw vege table salad every day. Keep a supply of plain wheat in the house and chew a handful daily instead of gum. Take fresh fruit as arjpetizer at breakfast dally and In lieu of cake, pastry or sweets as dessert. If you can't handle your quart of milk daily sub stitute milk products for part of the milk any kind of cheese you like, sour milk, buttermilk, skim milk, cream, butter, custard, malted milk, chocolate milk, Ice cream, peanuts and other nuts are ex cellent Good dentistry.
