' As to the latter, however, only the first of this year President Roosevelt in his message to congress de clared: . "And we shall not hesitate to use our influence-aiid o use It now-to secure as far as It Is humanly possible the ful fiUment of the principles of the Atlantic Charter '"W and our allies have declared It is our purpose to respect the right of all peoples to choose the form of government under which they will live It is our hope not only In the in terest of our own prosperity, but in the Interest of the pros , perity of the world, that trade and commerce , and I access to materials and markets may be freer AFTER THIS WAR than ever before In the history of the world. f"PV rrrs itfAVA fVio nmrrla nf mir Int.p President onlv a xuuae wuc .vv. -- - - ... nna nrm on rlavo Viofnrp.

THE paper drive will be held here July 23rd, and fhat. hnndlps nn the curbs are Itlit llely II MbW that rlnv State hierhwav tracks will gather them from designated points on state and fed eral roads. Before that date waste paper may be left at the Bartlett street entrance of the Medford Armory. The tin collection will follow on July 27 and 28 with similar pick-up procedure. SO, it is time right now to start bundling old papers and magazines to flatten tin cans and pack them in boxes in readiness for these two important wartime salvage drives. Here are really necessary home-front jobs to do. It is the responsibility of everyone to see that they are done well. H.G. Your Hsalth and It's Care By DR. WILLIAM BRADY M.D.t Readers should address Inquiries toi Dr. William Brady. 265 CI Camino Beverly Hills. Calif. DON'T I A reader who knows what he's talking about commented on a detailed reply recently given here to a schoolboy whose seventh grade hygiene c 1 a ss wanted to know what Tecommend to save the teeth. As for brush ing the teeth, I know of no serious ' objec- "tion to the Dr. Brady practice. As for preserving the teeth, the scientific evidence is over whelming, it seems to me, that brushing has nothing to do with it Still. I assure you that if you believe your teeth wiU look bet ter or feel better that way, it is all right to brush 'em as much as you like. But for health's sake don't delude yourself and don't let anybody tell you that you can save your teeth, prevent de cay, by faithfully brushing them with Just the right twist of the wrist or with a particular de tergent, or denifrice. For a year or more I invited dentists to let me send them a complimentary copy of the book let "Save Your Teeth" In which give the gist of the present knowledge of dental hygiene. Ordinary people who want the booklet send twenty-five cents and stamped self addressed en velope for it. Only a few dozen dentists asked for a copy. The offer is now withdrawn. Den tists are just people. For a time it saddened and troubled me. this attitude of the dentists. But few dentists kindly complied with my request to criticise any thing in the booklet just be tween friends for the welfare of the public. Partly from what these den tists said, but chiefly from what most of the dentists to whom I sent the booklet did not say, I have reached the conclusion that my teachings concerning preser vation of the teeth are anachron istic they should be released in 1955. In saying this I'm wil ling to be called smug, conceited or whatever you please only I say It. . i; ii.. i i rni. rpi,- T 9n Mno. lasmTKe and carrier Hellcats are doing their job well. G.

UNITED AIR LINE TO REDUCE FARES AGAIN San Francisco, July 14 Plans for another four per cent reduc tion in air travel fares effective probably Sept. 1, were an nounced Saturday by United Air Lines. According to w. A. Pat terson, president, the cut will bring United's basic fare reduc tions since Pearl Harbor to 24 per cent. United Air Lines reduced its fares by 10 per cent July, 1943, and by another 10 per cent last May 1. The new reduction will be on one-way fares, making them slightly under 4V4 cents a mile, Patterson said. He added that round-trip, circle trip and other discounts will be eliminated. 1400 Miles Without a Ruddc f (Acm Teleohoto) The "E" on the tail of this 313th Bombardment Wing B-29 marks the plane as mighty efficient Tail Gunner Sgt.

Johnson, R., Calif., tonight formally placed himself on record as the only member of the Senate Foreign Relation committee opposed to the United Nations peace charter, but its prompt ratifica tion, without reservation, ap peared virtually certain. Johnson. 77-year-old veteran leeislator who was a leader of the fight against the League of Nations 25 years ago, made a special trip to the capitol to rec ord his "no" vote against the committee recommendation that the charter be ratified He was not present yesterday when the committee originally voted 20 to 0 for ratification. Connally originally had hoped to have senate debate on the charter start next Monday July 16, but he postponed the date to July 23 so that senators would have ample opportunity to study the record of the committee hear ings and the records of the San Francisco conference. The com mittee's report recommending ratification of the charter is be ing written now and will be filled in the senate early next week. Meanwhile, the 'senate will start discussion on Monday of another major point of the ad ministration s overall foreign policy legislation approving the Bretton Woods banking and monetary agreements. Demo cratic leaders hope that the chamber will .pass it in a few aays. Uie Mall moune Went Ada Canned Food Store Lower Next Winter Portland Snnnll OS ff annA fruits and vegetables on grocer's shelves next winter will be down substantially below last year's, according to C. R. Tulley, State Director of the Office of Supply of the U. S. Department of Ag- ui-uuure. The Veffotnhln Kama ,. 11.- canned by nomemakers will be aown aoout one-fourth, with supplies of canned beans and to matoes only about half of last year's. Housewives Urged To Continue Vital Fat Contribution Portland While the amount of used fat collected and turned in by one housewife may seem a small contribution to America's vast war effort it is this con tribution multiplied many millions of times that prevents the nation's vital fat supply from reaching disastrous depletion said C. R. Tulley, state director of the Office of Supply of the U. S. Department of Agriculture. The responsibility' is being shifted more and more, Tulley said, on housewives who are al ready doing a tremendous iob in reaching the 250,000,000,000 pound used fats goal for this year. "The reduction in output of many civilian items announced recently was necessary because the nation's stockpile of used fats is at present lower than in the past two years," Tulley said. "No relief is in sight until Pacif ic sources of fat supply are again producing." Rules Designed To Lower Accidents. Of Bicycle Riders Springfield, 111. (U.R) The death of 20 persons and injury of 458 last year in bicycle accidents in Illinois has prompted Secre tary of State Edward J. Barrett to write 10 rules for bicycle riders. They are: ' 1. Keep to the right side of the street or highway. 2. Obey all traffic laws. 3. Don't ride on the sidewalks. 4. Never travel at night with out both a head and tail light on your bicycle. 5. Don't race. 6. Signal for all turns and stops. 7. Do not hitch to a moving vehicle. 8. Don't make a U turn in the middle of the street. 9. Brakes are just as essential on a bicycle as on car keep them in good working condition. 10. Don't ride anyone on your bicycle, and do not try any trick riding. Clselng time for Sunday Too Late to Claasif s 3n Saturday afternoon Please remember GI'S CAN TALK TO Paris, July 14 (U.R) Gon. Dwight D. Eisenhower and Field Marshal Sir Bernard L. Mont gomery today relaxed the non fraternization rule governing American and British occupation troops in Germany and Austria to permit them to converse with German adults in streets and other public places. The rule still applies to pri vate conversation with Ger mans. Under the relaxation, American soldiers may now legally talk and walk with Ger man girls. The order did not de fine "public places." A senior staff officer at British head quarters said he did not think the relaxation would permit sol diers to dance with German girls or to play games or drink with Germans.
