Dr. Hunter Should Retire
Wa rpp. nnthinrr that is trood and much that is
unfortunate in the State board of Higher Education's
action in regard to Dr. Charles D. Byrne. It has been
well known in education circles for a long time past
that Dr. Byrne desired, and had reason to expect, a
clarification of his status. He has been doing triple
dutv as secretary to the board, as assistant to. Chan
cellor Frederick M. Hunter,
for the state system. And this has involved consider
able of the chancellor's own duties, because of the
latter's ill health and for other reasons.
e a a e
MEANWHILE, Dr. Hunter has reached the age ot
67. Since he became 65 he has been eligible for
retirement, on an annunity paid up by the state, on
the initiative either of himself or the board. How
ever, neither Dr." Hunter nor the board has moved.
So the matter has been permitted to drift to the point
where Dr. Bvrne has asked for and received the right
to confine himself to his
board, and has been given a

fact that Dr. Hunter has seen higher education
through critical years and deserves every considera

we- cannot believe that continued delay has been
proper on the part of the board. It has permitted ai

Mules at Men
Asks a young woman born un
der the sign of Libra (Sept. 24
Oct. 23): "May I expect a Pisces
(Feb. 20-Mar. 21) man to propose
within a reasonable time or will
I have to stir him to activity in
that respect by a few gentle
hints?" According to stargazers
Piscean males need more than
the average urging to be brought
to the point of proposal. They
are Indecisive and are always
asking themselves "Am I doing
the right thing?" The clinging
vine technique is reported very
effective with men of this sign.
They enjoy being considered
sturdy oaks. They are extremely
fond of having good looking
women ask them for advice.
Libra women are very clever
at inspiring proposals from men
and one born under that sign
should have no trouble with a
reluctant Piscean. Or so say the
stargaiers. Incidentally, stargat
era claim that insofar as matri
mony is concerned Pisces and
Libra are Incompatible signs.

Marlon Leonard. Cinema star
ot yesteryear. Marlon was the
first film star to have her name
used on the screen or In adver
tising. She was the star of the
first film in which Mary pick
ford appeared. That was a ona-
reeler produced by D. W. Grif
fith in 1908 . . . Jim Jeffries.

himself, in person. Appears to
be in the pink. I never saw Jim
fight The first heavyweight
champion I saw in action was
Jack Dempsey.
Says She
"That woman who said a man
who helps with the houswork is
considered an easy mark and a
chump by his wife Is far off the
beam. I suspect her of being a
frustrated fromp," writes a New
Yorker. "A man who helps even
a little endears himself much
more to the feminine heart than
the boorish oaf who lolls com
placently in his easy chair ut
terly unmoved by the fact his
spouse is struggling alone in the
kitchen with a mountain of
dishes, A wife docs not look on
a husband who considerately
helps her as a chump, but as a
bit of a darling."
No Six Footers
Remember that song "Down
On The Farm"? Wasn't the farm
featured in this ditty in Michi
gan? Anyway, I have a letter
from a young woman who lives
on a farm near Washington,
Mich. She encloses a snapshot
which reveals her to be a very
smart looking girl. However, she
Is one of those tall girls who
worry so much about their
height. She is 5 fet 11 inches tall
and says she is unable to find
a dance partner taller than she
Is, adding: "There are Just no
six footers among men in this
part of Michigan." A sad state
of affairs. Maybe this young
woman should move to Texas
or Brooklyn where six footers
are plentiful.

correct.
a a
TTHE government has waged a
much more magnificent fight
against letting price statistics
rise than against prices. They
do this by weighing their index
heavily with non-existent and
hard-to-get commodities. For
Instance, they may consider
nylon hose prices, but few can
get them. The price is purely
figurative. The government may
brag about holding tenderloin
steak prices down, and give this
great consideration in making up
their index but steaks have lone
since ceased to bo an item in the
cost of living of most people.
The other commodities be
yond price control are available
and represent the real cost of
living today. Any shopper or
housewife can testify these have
gone up much more than three
per cent, especially when you
consider quality depreciation
and quantity chiseling. Only a
man living beyond personal con-
tact with the workaday world
in the white House, where everv
thing is bought for him. could
possibly believe the actual cost
of living has been held lo a
three per cent increase since
May, 1943.

are deduced, runs far bevond

These subsidies ho mentioned on
sugar, butter, bread, meat, milk
and cheese, are actually price In
creases which do not show In
the figures.
Take sugar. The price "line"
has been held at the expense of
no one being able to get enough
sugar. There is plenty of sugar
available in the off-shore stor
ages. The government haggled
against paying an increase of i
cent a pound and therefore was
not able to get the sugar. Now

wants to continue the govern
ment subsidy, beyond next July
1 or, he says, sugar will rise one
cent a pound, which he con
siders alarming.
e e
BUTTER? The butter "line"
has. been held by creating a
condition where people cannot
get butter. The price of cream
was allowed to rise to the point
where producers could make
more money selling the cream
instead of making it into butter
on which the price was limited
That is why we have had a but
ter shortage. Meat? Flour?
Cash from the treasury is being
paid producers for not increas
ing prices, and now Mr. Truman
says these subsidies must be con
tinued or increased else meats
will go up three to five cents
and bread one cent a loaf next
July 1, when the subsidies expire.
For his proposal to continue
the subsidies, Mr. Truman was
denounced by one farm organi
zation as advocating "the worst
double-cross of the farmers in
history." The unanimity of the
farm bureau, grange and farm
ers' union against the subsidies
practically assures their discon
tinuance by the congress, de
spite Mr. Truman's recommen
dation. Thus the food price In
creases forecast by the president
are apt to be realized.

Question of the Hour
To the editor: Many years
ago young girls played the
game "button, button, who has
the button?" Today this game
is being played by old and
oung alike except the word
button has been changed to but
ter. Right here in Medford and
throughout the nation, the burn
ing topic is butter, and not the
weather, for a change. RWht
here in the cotintv seat of this
ever-green, delightful Rogue
valley, that has 16.000 head of
dairy cattle, and a half dozen
creameries to handle the thous
ands of pallons of milk these
cows produce, butter is nearly
off the market: in fact, to use
an old term, as scarce as hen's
teeth.
This shortage of butter for
old and young alike is serious
as it ranks tons In calories of
all human food. For example
one pound nf good butter equal'
lx pounds of beef steak and
for that reason alone butter
should be much higher than it
is today. The creamerv men
butter makers of the ration, can
not be charged with the short
age, as it rests "auarely on the
heads of the OPA. For the low
celling price placed on butter
fat the creamery operators are
not going to onerate at a loss.
As a usual thing the profit on
butter is very small In comoari
on to other commodities, there
fore at present whole milk is
being converted into cheese, ice
cream, evannrated and canned
milk that will show a small pro
fit. rather than a loss if made
Into butter. Butter making is
an expensive operation and has
to be handled with great care
by firvreful'v -ralnci expert?.
This nation is the heaviest
consumer of butter. In 1942 we
produced two billion pounds
and in addition a half million
nounds of cheese, a nuarter bil
Hon of powdered milk and close
to two billion of evaporated or
condensed milk, with no record
of the whole milk consumed
As New York alone consume!1
a billion quarts of whole milk
the total must be enormous for
the nation. It takes ten gallons
of whole milk to produce one
and a third gallons of cream.
The average content of a pound
of butter, is 82 percent butter
fat. the balance being a certain
amount of water, salt, albume
suoar and casein.
Therefore when you go to
votir favorite store and can t
get butter. Just cuss the OPA,
and let It go at' that.
