By MALCOLM EPLEY TIPS on the culinary art are a bit unusual " in this column, but here's one we're passing on today from a man whose advice ought to be good. Dr. J. C. Hunt, city milk nd meat inspector, says this to Klamath cooks: "Cook meat well. It's probably good, safe meat, but it's safer and surer - to cook It thoroughly." Dr. Hunt is back from a conference at Eugene where there was expert discussion of the danger of illness from meagerly cooked meat. It was stated there, for instance, that -undulant fever is much more likely to occur from eating and handling meat than f ronvmllk, "despite popular ideas to the contrary... The good doctor says, his advice goes for both beef and pork. Klamath's meat supply, he said, is as good or better, than the average, but his suggestion' is 'to cook It"' all with a vengeance. . i " Vv.

It is reasonable, nonpartisan, not a "viewpoint" but a' general condition simply this: 4'.' --::.: .v., , 7 A There is more cash in private hands than eyer before in the-'history "of anyjiation; more money in savings accounts; more cashable bonds. At the same time there is a greater de mand far -goods needed in every phase of living. If this piled-up cash could- be used for the orderly purchase of needed goods, there should be no chance of depression or bad times for three to five years ahead. !B Yet the people generally do not think about such things. Naturally they are inclined, to look only st their own individual future problem, the soldier to his returning job, the war worker, to a new job somewhere at how much money, the war community to how it will fare in reconversion, also the business man; the poor aboufc inflated postwar - prices, the rich about taxes, the teacher and white collar worker about his fixed income in a world of inflated prices,', etc. etc Discouraged NO class, can see security ahead, and as a ' result there has grown up a large number of people whose thinking about their own prob lems has led -'them to discouragement and dis- heartenmeht on the threshold of victory. C This discouragement should be dispelled by government action holding out prospects of security These .fears .need ..not be realized because Ve have the ingredients for success the cash- and Jthe demand, for' goods. All we need is wise, sound handling of those ingred ients. Mismanagement can cause inflation, de pression, unemployment. - D To solve the problem, Mr. Roosevelt could well call in the brains of the country as he did for the war production job. He could organize national reconversion for labor, business man, farmer, etc, on a firm basis to inspire general confidence. He could organize economically to avoid inflation in prices and deflation in wages, for stability in both, altering hts tax program, spending, lending and every other government policy toward the job at hand. This would restore a sense of security all down the line and do the job. The reaction to this simple analysis of ob servable facts and a constructive, rather obvious, remedy betrayed the confusion existing In the cotsitry. One editor said this was a political attack upon the New Deal, trying to spread fear. The truth is the New Dealers are more discouraged than any other group, as witness their (Wallace) proposal to spend-lend huge government sums for 60,000,000 jobs to hanoie unemployment. Another editor considered it an attack upon the south, although the report said I had ob served the same condition in public thought on a trip through the midwest a few weeks earlier and in mail from all sections. e e e Look At the Market A SAN FRANCISCO editor said the condition could not be true of the Pacific coast because he had interviewed most of the people on his own paper and found not one of them discouraged about their future. I would go further and say that the average person who does not look ahead is in that same category, but that the leaders of every group from labor to capital, must look ahead and do see these things. Newspaper people on fixed salaries would suffer as much as any other group from price Inflation. . A Chicago financial editor said: "But look at the stock market." Yes, look at it, and look at what it was in 1929 with inflated values that no one did any thing about in time. And while you are look ing, ascertain how many race track gamblers are playing stock-horses now that the tracks have been closed, without any thought of the future of the country. I do not believe in pessimism. A man who allows himself to be either an optimist or a pessimist in these critical times is only fooling himself.' This proposition involves neither ex treme; or should not. It involves only a Job to be done, one that can be done, and one that is not being done. The facts show that all the government has done so far is to arrange to hand out money to jobless soldiers or war workers, to conceive big public works, rivers and harbors and highway expenditures, and such methods, which are more difficult this time because the debt is so high that these expenditures cannot be provided in gigantic sums through deficit fin ancing. , Business will have to be kept at a sufficient clip to pay the taxes necessary to carry the debt and the expenditures. . But business alone could carry us if provided an orderly program of reconversion and peacetime production so as to keep the demand for autos, radios, etc., continuous and not dry up the market too fast, or be so slow as to cause unemployment. It may be true a great many war workers have only an amount set aside equal to one or two months' salary, and therefore must get jobs within 30 to 60 days after losing their war positions, or go on relief. They may have been spending wildly, but this phase also could be handled by an orderly program pushing this type first into the millions of jobs now crying for a worker in civilian life stores, filling stations, restaurants, etc. Releases from the army should be tied in with national economic necessities. All this planning for a well managed peace economy should be ready to put into effect when peace is declared, indeed should be in hand now. Instead the army, navy, WPB, Byrnes, congress (on taxes) are each moving in their respective realms for their own rea sons, and management of the problem is hap hazard, rather than centralized, powerful and national.
