MALCOLM EPLEY Managing Editor EPLEY Today's Roundup By MALCOLM EPLEY n WRITING this in order to be "one up" be-, fore taking off on a Journey east, we axe going to crib a bit from two of our fellow t, ... v editors who scratch their ,t ' heads and punch typewriters ! if" in newspaper offices elsewhere r 1 " on the coast. k Z (r 1 We'U sUrt with Bill Bailey. V & the aggressive editor of the Siskiyou News. Bill. It seems, had a little tiff the other day with a mining company offi cial, and he tells about it in his "Footnotes" column. We've had similar experiences, and we never thought of writing 'em up, but darned if Bill's story doesn't make good reading. "It seems," says Bill, "that your corres pondent is going to enjoy a feud with the Selad Valley Graphite company, as to whether the graphite concern shall confine itself to mining while we edit a newspaper, or whether the mining concern is going to edit this news paper as a sideline and suppress all news of the company in question." It seems that a mining concern official ob jected to a routine news bit about the firm appearing in the News, and that he and Bill forthwith exchanged some remarks with in creasing heat The upshot was that Bill told the miner to tend to his mining, and added that he would tend to his editing. The visitor left mumbling dire threats, and Bill promised to take a special interest in news about this par ticular mining concern. Bill's visitor is probably like various com pany officials we know he would be better . off if he would loosen up a bit and let the public know more about his business. We have tried, for instance, to build up a little weekend news column here about the lumber business. The gentlemen we have called are very good friends of ours, but with' one or two excep tions they haven't told us a thing. We find it hard to believe these good citi zens want to suppress legitimate news, but they are just close-mouthed. Yet the news they could give us wouldn't violate any military regula tions, it wouldn't hurt anybody's business, it would inform the public here about the activi ties in a very important local industry, and it would constitute good public relations for the firms. Movie Colony Morals GEORGE PUTNAM, up at the Salem Capital Journal, was inspired to write a vitriolic diatribe on movie colony morals this week. He says that the "amatory and matrimonial adventures of a few of the Hollywood film stars are disquieting and calculated to discredit the movie profession, most of whose actors have a due regard for decency and morality. While Indecency has been largely banned from the films themselves, there should be a purge of the offenders, lest their shameless parade bring approbrium to the industry, reflected in that one spot that hits the box office the pro ducers." We have heard long arguments about the morals of the moving picture people. We have heard statistical rows as to whether divorce is any more prevalent among the film players than among us common folk. The usual con elusion is that the players simply get more publicity in their amatory and matrimony antics than do other people. While we'll agree with anybody who says divorce is all too prevalent among film players, we'll also agree that it is all too prevalent in the country's population as a whole. Vhe par ade of divorce-seeking couples to the courtrooms is destroying family stability throughout the nation. Film players, we presume, are heroes and heroines to a lot of people, particularly young folks. It's possible the example of matrimonial butterflying they do influences a good many of these admirers. Perhaps it is not unjust to suggest that the movie people ought to consider that possibility, and ought to carry their moral responsibilities more adequately than they do. SIDE GLANCES i-Zl "We have to be puticnl. son our dnv is coming when the war ends and we can ive this kitchen back to Mom and the girls I" Li News Behind ihe News By PAUL MALL ON WASHINGTON, June 21 The administra tion has set going a rather shrewd and strong propaganda campaign to continue paying food subsidies out of the treasury. j It seems likely to get away with the idea, although a ma jority of congress is sharply opposed. The propaganda is based on two points. First, Mr. Roose- Xv"' M en says anyone having "a 'k' J I be"6' 'ole" w which to hide l J from disruption of price-wage economy, snouia produce it. NALLON He asks wh has a beHep pan The second point is that England long has had such a scheme. These two justifications are reinforced by the administration appeal that prices will fly through the roof and break up the whole war economy unless its chosen course is followed. Somewhat artificial foundations lie beneath these contentions. The irrefutable truth is no subsidies, or anything else, would be needed if the administration had held down prices and wages as promised. The appeal for subsidies is a simple confession of failure. Actually, no other plan is needed even now if the whole price-wage policy could be made to work. Under such circumstances no "better 'ole" can possibly be produced. The administration has just concocted a glossy political argument to cover failure and proceed to do what it wants to do. "Britain Did It" THE argument that "Britain did it" always goes well here, implying that is the sensible Churchill espoused it, there cannot be much wrong with it. In this case, however, Britain is doing it with our money. She (an Import nation) buys food from us under lend-lease, giving us IOUs, and then sells same for cash to British whole salers and retailers. What is clearly good business for her In this respect is quite different for our export nation because Jesse Jones, the administration food revolvor, must raise the money to pay our bill here by causing war bonds to be sold. Furthermore, ' the administration is paying its subsidies to the processors (meat packers, etc.) while Britain pays directly to the farmers. The administration's excuse for this is that we have too many farmers, and direct payments would require tremendous bookkeeping. But the glossy surface of the proposal has been shined to cast an appealing glow for the labor union workers. The great middle class with its fixed income, and old age pensioners who see prices and taxes rising without a com pensating increase in income. The academic argument that they will pay the bill anyway in the end through taxes to pay off the debt is not apt to appeal to them as forcefully as having the government "roll back" prices, now quietly taking the money out in treasury IOUs. They can thus be ap peased for the administration's failure to have held prices and wages where they should have been. Most favorable factor for the president's course, however, is that he can get away with it if he only prevents congress from passing an amendment stopping him. He does not need funds, because already he has tapped Jesse Jones' revolving fund for $490,000,000 and can draw unlimited millions more from that source without a congressional appropriation until months hence, when Mr. Jones finds his money bin empty and asks for an over-all congressional appropriation to replenish. Stop Gap THERE can be no sound non-political economic I justification for a subsidy. It merely takes the money of all the people to pay some of the people a pension for not increasing their prices. It is a stop gap. If the administration could not hold prices by arbitrary executive action up to now, there is really no guarantee that subsidies will pre vent further price increases. It is just as rea sonable to expect that the government will have to pay continually larger and more subsidies if it puts the fight against inflation on that basis. There is a .danger also that we are entering upon a subsidized economy. Mr. Ickes is already paying subsidies on oil and coal to offset the increased transportation costs required by gov ernment seizure of oil for war purposes. We might even have a labor subsidy. Economic Stabilizer Vinson told the canners their subsidies would allow wage increases of 10 cents an hour, but they would have to take the chance of congress allowing the subsidy (thereby also generating more pressure on con gress to be silent). Conceivably, the government could pay General Motors, or any corporation, a free bounty for a wage increase in exchange for the promise not to increase the prices of its products, if that is deemed feasible. Everyone knows these things, and appar ently no one likes subsidies, but here they are, and they are likely to get bigger very much bigger.

Gunder Wins But Greg Rice Has Body Chafinq Induced By Heat Moisture, Friction Dr. Masters' Health Column Br DR. THOMAS D. MASTERS Written lor MEA This summer will mean longer hours and harder work under conditions of greater discomfort for many people concerned with the war effort. Not the least of these discomforts will be those associated with dust and sweat, combined with rough working clothes. Chafing, which many are in the habit of considering peculiar to infants and chil dren, is likely to make its un welcome appearance among countless adults. Chafing is induced by heat, friction, and moisture. The heat of the body is sufficient at times but warm weather encourages chafing. The friction may result from the clothing worn, especial ly if it is coarse, or from oppos ing surfaces of skin in contact with one another. The moisture may be sweat, which comes as the result of work, warm weath er, or friction itself. The nor mal excretions may also provide moisture. AFFECTED AREAS The most common locations for chafing to develop in are the armpits, beneath the breasts, the groins, the cleft between the but tocks, and the inner surfaces of the thighs. The obese frequently develop chafing between folds of adipose tissue. These are places where . perspiration and neat can be retained, and fric tion occurs. . At the outset, the skin be comes red, and the sensations of heat and tenderness or soreness are felt There is usually no elevation or thickening of the skin. If the irritation continues in the presence of warmth and sweat, the skin becomes macer ated or softened, and finally exudes a mucoid discharge. Disagreeable In Itself, It Is par ticularly susceptible to secondary infection, and it is not to be ig nored, if only lor this reason. Fungi and yeast organisms find such, an area particularly desir able for growth and occasionally, in advanced stages, with erosion of the skin and superficial ulcer ation, abscesses or boils may de velop. In children, the moist diaper is a common irritant, and in fat people the condition is extreme ly difficult to control between layers of excess flesh. Either uncleanliness or the reverse, that is, too frequent use of irritating soap and water, are common adjuncts in the developing of chafing. ELIMINATE CAUSES The treatment consists of elim inating the three direct causative factors. Cool, soft clothing will am in the evaporation of sweat. The places where friction occurs should be protected. Lint or cel lulose pads may be used to sep arate two opposing surfaces and keep them from rubbing more. Very fat people may obtain relief by using bags made of cheesecloth or other porous ma terial containing a dusting pow der to separate the folds. After the Irritation has developed, the area should be cleansed care fully with soap and water, and a simple powder, such as talcum or zinc stearatc, may be aoDlied freely. Ointments, salves, and greasy emollients should be avoided, as they tend to macer ate the skin further, and thus prolong the trouble. Doctors are scarce . .
