Of Importance to All CONGRESS, which adjourned its special session a few days ago, will be back on the job for the regular session next Monday. An event of profound importance at the opening should be the president's address on the state of the nation. The average run of citizen will probably find himself inclined to sharper interest in what the president has to say about foreign policy than certain other matters that are of great importance to the country. The incidents in the Orient have aroused national interest in foreign policy to a high pitch. . But there should come from the president important indications of significance to business. What happens to business will have a profound effect on every citizen of the country. It is not simply the big business man or the little business man that will benefit or suffer with busi ness. The welfare of all is tied up with the fortunes of business, and those who study national policies intelligent ly will examine them with that in mind. War for a Price (Koseburg News-Review) SHORTLY after the regular session of congress begins in January the proposal by Representative Ludlow that a state of war can only be declared by a vote of the people of the country, will be up for debate. The Lud low proposal is in the form of a constitutional amend ment which, if approved by the congress, will be sub mitted for ratification by the states. This innocent looking proposal which, had it been in force these last 100 years would have been used only twice, can be of small value as a means of insuring peace. The advancement of it has the implication that congress wants war and cannot be trusted. Any school boy knows that is not so. But this suggestion, if adopted will con stitute an entering wedge for the idea of polls on all sorts of questions. As such it is dangerous to the system of government which has made this country great. Our representative system is an effective protection against emotionalism and haste. It is a protection against the concentration of power. They use nation-wide polls in Italy, Germany and Russia but such votes have little meaning. We do not want that condition to develop here. Those who believe the Ludlow proposal would insure peace must ponder well the fact that though no foreign government can influence congress, any person or power, foreign or otherwise, can through clever propaganda and the expenditure of enough money, influence the vote of the people. Representative Ludlow will get himself a lot of pub licity as the result of his suggestion. The professional peace people will make much capital of it. But sincere congressmen, and there are a lot of them, will surely consign the proposition to the congressional waste-baskets. The Family Doctor This Is the fourth In a series In which Dr. Fishbein discusses various mental abnormalities and deficiencies. By Dr. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor, Journal of the American Medical Association, and of Hygela, the Health Magazine flOOD evidence of Intelligence la, of course, leadership. Now adays there are a number of men tal tests which determine the amount of intelligence. From these tests comes the phrase I. Q., or Intellectual quo tient. This Is obtained by divid ing the mental age In years or months by the actual age, If the Individual Is under 16 years old. An Intelligence quotient of 70 or less is generally considered to be a sign of some mental defect. In taking care of mentally de fective children, it Is customary to teach them to the limit of their mental equipment. For some chil dren, care In an Institution is ab solutely necessary. Others, with more serious disorders, must be confined permanently. Training usually begins with formation of routine body habits, practice In recognizing names and people, then discipline such as marching to the rhythm of the drum and similar practices. With some, the most that can be taught Is to train them so that they will rest when It Is time to rest. Others will learn simple ex ercises, such as cutting with scis sors and plain sewing. Idiots will learn only enough to keep themselves from danger and to avoid annoying other peo ple. Imbeciles may reach the second or third grade in school, and morons may get as high as the sixth grade. Industrially, 'even Imbeciles may be taught to use a hammer and nails. Girls able to reach kindergarten level can be taught to aew, Most Important, how ever, for all of these children, Is aoolal training. , This they learn by playing games and even by try ing dramatics. Of the greatest Importance In developing the feeble-minded child Is the selection of the proper school or place for lit tralniug.

PAUPER ASKS DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF GOLD CLAIM EVERETT, Wash., Dec. 81 (UP) Moon-faced Peter E. Ja cobsen, 60, hadn't paid bis 10 cents a month rent for two years, but when the city of Everett built a road through Pigeon creek transient camp, he filed suit against the city for (14,556 In damages. JacobBen's King Solomon placer mining claim was wrecked when the road was built, Jacobsen charged. "I named my mine the King Solomon placer mining claim be cause the Bible said Solomon was a wise man and I thought be could help me," Jacobsen told city officials. "Sure there's gold in Pigeon creek, I had a whole quart and a pint jar full of It but someone stole It four months ago." Jacobsen, who had lived on city property for the last five or six years, asked (2000 for damage to the land, (5000 damage to min eral deposits, (5000 damage to his mill and machinery, (600 damage to his garden, (2000 for the right-of-way for the road, and (25 for damage to his steps and walk.

MS&PI1 WASHINGTON. Dec. 31 Tho president has been deftly ousting rearmament hlnta out on rubber strings. Last cast was tho warning he might ask congress for some more navy ships, for eign and domestic observers nre chasing themselves to ascertain whether he is trying to lure the stock market out with steel-buying bait or is Just casting another dip lomatic spell on Japan. The truth seems to be stranger than either of these auspicious. Behind the diplomatic legerde main aud market hocus-pocus, an executive decision appears to have been made for a future naval building program of tremendous national and International sig nificance. Some of It may he made known officially within 30 days; some may be withheld for tear of diplomatic consequences. What is herewith presented, therefore, Is not an official reflec tion of White House purpose but a wholly unofficial, authentic dis closure of what those who have talked with Mr. Roosevelt lately believe he has In mind, and the reasoning behind It. FRONTIER KXTKXSIOX The administration primarily now recognises a new exlentlon of the American frontier Is neces sary. It Is preparing to recom mend not only "some more ships,' but enough ships to make the United States a well armed police man of the western world within a few years. It has come to the conclusion that natioual defense rests not only upon protecting our old physical border but In safe guarding the Pacific coast line from Nome to Cape Horn. To do this it wtll be necessary eventually to invoke the escalator clause of the London naval treaty supplement to the Washington arms conference agreement and build beyond those limits, as other nations are doing. It will be necessary to make budget-balancing, which hereto fore has been secondary to relief needs, now also secondary to na tional defense needs. SPEED-UP The start will be made with the president sending to congress (af ter his forthcoming regular mes sage) a supplemental estimate re questing a small appropriation in addition to the (50,000,000 In crease for building already pro vided In the yet unpublished naval budget. That Is, the contemplated Increases are In addition to the present expansion program, al though for the present they will follow the outlines of the Vinson Trammell bill, merely speeding up the building ultimately con templated nnder that act. Unofficially, congressmen from Oregon and California will be per mitted to propose amendments to the next naval bill, creating new bases on the Pacific coast, prob ably one In Oregon, one In San Francisco (improving Mares Is land) and possibly one In Los An geles. At present there is no sat isfactory base between Pnget Sound and San Diego. Congress is very likely to tack on also some extra-budgetary money for both army and navy aviation with a view to protecting all borders against establishment of bombing alrbases on nearby for eign soil. ' While these last two moves may not be sponsored by the president, officially, they will not be vetoed when they get to him. FORECAST Considerations leading up to these conclusions are being out lined privately by an administra tion lieutenant who says the coun try and the newspapers do not seem to appreciate what has hap pened to the world in the past 90 days. In accordance with Wash ington custom, he professes to be explaining only his own personal views, like this: "Japan has China. That is set tled. The Japanese now will pro ceed to work up the resources of that vast conquered empire for their own development. In a few years this should make Japan a world power of twice her present Importance, it Is not Inconceiv able that she will be able to arm and militarize the Chinese hordes, with pay, for her future purposes. ' "While Japan will be busy In China for the next few years, her allies, Italy and Germany, are al ready at work to find a foothold In South America. Tbose nations down there are Inadequately arm ed to defend themselves against a major power, Japan could con quer any of them in three months. We have allowed the Monroe doc trine to lapse by inactivity, and our Latin American relations have not been such as to guar antee us protection in that iron tier. Mexico, for Instance, has not been very close to us In late years. "With the growth of Japan and her new alliance, it becomes noces sary for us, In the Interest of self defense, to look beyond the Amer- lean borderline to safeguard our country in the future. LAW OF JUNGLE "Treaties are a thing of the past, We must have protection against the law of the jungle. That Is the law which prevails in the world today. "The day is gone when Amer ican geographical isolation Is a protection against attack. Eng land has had to move her frontier because of aviation Inventions, and so must we. "But first we must combat anti preparedness propaganda at home, It Is beginning to show up in con gress in the Ludlow resolution SIDE GLANCES " cto "1 think I'd better cull. home mid and In the pulpit and in patriotic societies. "Protection these days Ilea in strength. In protection and strength there is peace." You will hear these things said officially and publicly in congress very shortly. FT. KLAMATH FORT KLAMATH R. E.

The custom of marking the women In this manner has besu discontinued in the past 30 years. It was considered ns a mark of beauty und had no othor signifi cance. Soma had three stripes about i inch wide, one at the mid dle of the ohiu from the lip down to bottom of chin while the other two extended from oach corner of tho mouth downward. Some worn nhout 316 Inch wide and others of that approximate width with a hair lino down each side of the stripe. The man ("awlch" meaning Indian man) was marked some times with a decorative hand around tho ankle or tho wrist. I hero wore ninny designs just something that appealed to the ranry of tho tattooed person. They used auot from a chimney or any other source, wot II, mak lug a sort of paste, n ml drove It into tho skin with a sharp and wen-seasoned fish bono or a snlln tor from the shin bono of a deer.

WORST OVER IN STRIKE SITUATION, NLRB DECLARES Copyright. 19J7. by United Press WASHINGTON, Dec. Jl (UP) The national labor rnlnttons board Informed congress last night that I bo United Slates passed through the worst labor strike period In his tory during 1S37 but that there Is now strong evldenco the worst Is over. The hoard revealod In a secret report that there were 4017 strikes during Ihe first 10 months or 137, more than ever recorded during any entire previous year, and that 51 per cent were caused through efforts by employes to organise for collective bargain Ing. It blamed the situation on re fusal of employers to recognlie rights of workers to organise un der Ihe Wagner labor relations act, but said that since the su premo court validated the legisla tion last April thcro has been a marked decllno In disputes. The roport, based on figures of the bureau of labor statistics and not Including disputes Involving six persons or less, revealed that 1,768,791 workors wore Involved In strikes during the 10-month period snd that they lost a total of 26,609,205 work days. Tho 1937 unrest, tho report snld, outstripped the peak years of 1919 and 1920 which followed tho World war. In 1919, there were 3630 strikes of which 66 per cent were caused by wage and hour disputes, as against only 24 per cent by or ganizational difficulties. There wore 3411 strikes In 1920 of which 00 per cent wore caused by wago and hour dlfforonces and 19 per cent by organisational mis understandings. The board ascribed the Increase In strikes since 1932 to the "col lateral Improvement In buslnoss conditions" and the "new cour age workors received from the eglslatlon protecting their right to organlso for collective bargain ing." It noted that there has been a "marked decline" in strikes slnco last July, three months after the supremo court decision, and two months before the current buslnoss recession began. SUB STRATOSPHERE PLANE HITS HIGH SPEED IN TEST LOS ANGELES, Dee. 81 (UP) A recent socret flight of a new army "mystery plane," which hit a top speed of 360 miles an hour over a 220-mlle tost course, wos revealod today by the Lockheed Aircraft corporation. Officials reported the piano, a Lockheed sub-strntnsphero model, covored tho 220 miles In 38 min utes, flying at an altlludo of from 19,000 to 21,000 feet. The plane carried four men, Capls, A. 11. Johnson and T. A, Sims as pilots, and Major F, Reed and C'npt II. G. Armstrong ns ob sorvors. No oxygon equipment or heavy clothing wore noodod do spite the high levels because of supercharged cabin featuros. The piano was built here last spring and dallvered to the army air corps In August, Hall Hlblmid, chief englnoor of Lockheed, predicted the success ful tests may be tho forerunnor of super-speed passenger travel. "Tho high speed mnde possible by sub-striiloBphore flying with no discomfort to pnssongers Indi cates that regular air line flying at high altitudes Is entirely feas ible and may well become the con ventional mode of air travel with in tho noxt fow years," he said.
