His uncle Bob, late of the navy, Is again In civilian duds. e e e Hunters wearing red hats arc more plentiful In the timber than members of the fair sex on the Main Stem wearing red skirts. e The Hale Wheeler boy Gale has started to Jabber, and often wonders why his folks can't un derstand English.

The City Hall Is getting a much needed paint Job. e e e The leaders of Oregon Demo cracy met at Portland Thursday to discuss the U. S. attorneyship for this state, and beat the bush, reports state.

Bunday, Oci. 7. 1943 It Should There was a time when railroad strikes were as prevalent as industrial strikes are today. And they usually came when normal acutely needed here m when the fruit crop had to kets in a certain brief period or else ! Now railroad strikes more rare in fact for we 4-leaf clover the other day! Why is this? ""THE chief reason must be that in the railroad field something has been done which has NOT been done in any other department of industry. And this was done believe it or not ago! Congress then passed a Labor Act and under it least until an impartial on the merits of the controversy and offered a solution. During this long period, railroad labor controversies which this Board failed to settle satisfactorily, and strikes were therefore called. But the record in recent years has been an amazing one and today walk-outs in this highly or ganized and vital industry are practically UN KNOWN! SO what? Tuof fViia iirViir PAWT in one large industry be applied to ALL industry tit. lonsi nil imnm-tnnt. inrlnsfrv? This denartment in the nnst. hna npvpr hpen able files of this paper will show The "sacred right to strike" is not eliminated oy this railroad law, nor, we presume, the "sacred" right to call a lock-out. But the riirht to strike attempt has been made to adjudicate the matter PEACEABLY, HAS been out-lawed. And that form of anarchy SHOULD be out-lawed! HE Mail Tribune is convinced the time has come for the neonle of this country to rise on their hind- lee and DEMAND that sentatives in this'government at least do as well as their predecessors of nearly three decades ago did and that means finishing the job that the latter had the courage and wisdom to start; but their successors have to date never had the COMPLETE! R.W.R. It Starts pVNE of the finest expressions of this democracy of ours will be found in the Community Chest and United War Fund campaign, which gets underway here tomorrow. This week the people of this city and adjacent areas will be asked to contribute $28,000 to the cht-st fund and $12,000 for the 21 agencies of the War Fund. It constitutes a real test of the generosity and humanitarian spirit of citizens here. There is a di rect and inescapable appeal to the heart from each agency that cannot go unheeded. AS BEFORE, a single contribution makes possible help and hope to humanity from Minsk to Men chow, a friendlv bit of home for service men from Spozia to Sasebo, a kindly to youngsters right here on HE activities financed by both the Medford Com muitv Chest and the National War Fund are fam iliar to most people here. It should not be necessrry to review the work of the Salvation Army, Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts, Girls' Community Club, Jackson County Public Health association and Y.M.C.A. lheir outstanding contributions to the betterment of youth character and to the health have been far too apparent to our citizens. We sim ply cannot afford to dispense with the services of a single one of them. A LTHOUGH the Outpost will no longer participate " in the community fund, due to the recent with drawal of the Jackson County Recreation Committee from the Chest, the need for future operation of tins down town "home" for officers, nurses and patients is obvious. The commissioning of the navy hospital at Camp White is bringing added demands upon the facilities of this center. Encouragement should be given to any future movement to assure the continued usefulness ot tne Outpost. "THE United War Fund remains an important part of the drive this year. The war has not ended tor many men still overseas and in the service in this country, as well as for the victims of social conditions resulting from dislocation and confusion. For the families of men in the service, for those who suffered in Axis prison camps, for humanity in other lands left destitute in the long and bitter war, humane and benevolent provision must Many such problems resulting from war become a charge upon this community's conscience. e a e e a CROM neighborly acts of kindness, here and throughout the world, will spring hope and faith. Contribution to this campaign is, indeed, an act of a thoughtful and understanding 'neighbor. America's generosity will meet our responsibility to our own and become a powerful influence for lasting peace throughout the world. "THOSE who solicit contributions for the Chest and 1 War Fund this week are cheerfully giving their time and effect in a worthy cause. They deserve a friendly, courteous reception. And keep in mind that Be Done! railroad service was most the valley, for example, be moved to eastern mar are as rare as 4-leaf clovers know a man who found a over a quarter century law known as the Kailway strikes were outlawed at Mediation Board had ruled there no doubt have been tViia mofhrid an snpfpctsfnl to see anv reason as the and we cant now.

LUCUBRATIONS A reader Inquires whether mineral oil is harmful to use reg ularly as laxative or Internal lu bricant. Mineral oil, liquid petroU- tum, liquid paraffin, Rus sian il, Ameri can oil, as it is variously call ed, does not E J o' stomach or interline iv act' ve as lubricant, but mixes inti- Dr. Brady matelv with the stomach and intestinal con tents, becomes emulsified. Mineral oil is not antiseptic. It is not absorbed, hence has no food value. Contrary to a com mon theory it does not cause or predispose to cancer. Mineral oil retards digestion by coating particles of food and preventing the digestive juices from absorption of minerals and vitamins from the food, for the same reason. It prevents reab- sorption of bile from the intes tina and thereby lessens both biliary and pancreatic secretion. The lessening of secretion of bile and pancreatic juice means les sening or failure of the normal physilogical stimulation of the bowel wall, lowering of intes tinal "tone" or vigor of peris taltic action. Mineral oil also prevents ab sorption of water from the fecal masses in the -colon and this tends to keep the intestinal con tents both bulky and soft. These effects may be desirable in a few exceptional cases. But the un toward effects of mineral oil interference with digestion and assimilation of essentials of nu trition outweigh any such ben eficial effects, in my opinion, and condemn it, in whatver form, as a remedy for or corrective of constipation.

Riv.fld Phone 3961 MM ON LUBRICATION I have some suggestions which, if you follow them, will do all the good mineral oil can do for you and at the same time actu ally benefit your health. Buy from drugstore or seed store a pound of unground flax seeds. Take a teaspoonful or a tablespoonful daily, washed down with water or mixed with jelly or breakfast cereal. I be lieve this more nearly serves the purpose of a natural intestinal lubricant than mineral oil.

The dischargees are to be giv en first priority in disembarking and entraining at west coast ports. The new plan Is designed to speed the movement of h i g h point men homeward and divides the country into three zones. Dischargees living in the northern third of the country, New England and upper Middle Atlantic states will be disem barked at Portland and Seattle. Those living in the central area will be disembarked at San Fran cisco and those in the southern region are to leave the ships at San Pedro and San Diego, Cal., in an attempt to minimize north south rail movements anywhere across the country.

In an exclusive interview he outlined a program of work, so briety and patience to overcome Japan's difficulties and to re establish her place in the world. "Frankly, I am approaching the task with some trepidation and I will need all the coopera tion I can get from everybody," said Shidehara. "I am long a student of Ja pan's foreign afafirs, but I never paid too much attention to do mestic problems, with which I must be largely concerned if I form a cabinet." "Naturally, I will not appoint anybody to the cabinet who might be designated by (Gen. j Douglas) MacArthur's headquar ters as suspected of responsibility ! for the war, or classed as a war ; criminal," he said laughingly. I "I do not know but that I may be under suspicion myself since my uuuie 111 tne country was seiz ed by the military, and the gun emplacements could be used to charge that I aggressively helped tne war party."
