ALONG NATURE'S TRAIL
by KEN McLEOD
I have found Jeff Riddle's book
on the Modoc War to be a most
difficult publication to judge, we
may be critical of his use of
words yet in Justice to Jeff we
must consider his background of
education which was small In
deed, and In the foreword to his
book he takes recognition of this
tact with apology: "I have 'one
drawback: I have no education,
but have tried to write as plain
as I could. 1 use no fine lan
guage in my writing, for I lack
education."
One of the most difficult com
plexes to be laced by the human
mind Is this one of education
that is, formal education. Many
an old timer who probably never
Had the opportunity of getting be
yond the third or fourth grade
in school has a feeling jf inferior
ity in the presence of those who
have been to a university: and,
the educated hare been quick to
seize the advantage by fostering
the idea that a man's greatness is
measured by the number of de
grees he can string after his
name. Thus we have collectors of
degrees like Boy Scouts collect
merit badges.
An experience I once had very
forcibly focused this subject of in
feriority upon my attention. I
had been doing some work for the
chief engineer of one of the larg
est lumber concerns on the coast
and we spent considerable time
together in the woods. One day
we were sitting on a log together,
watching' the operation of n
steam donkey engine bringing in
huge Douglas Fir logs over a
slack line that stretched three
thousand feet across a deep can
yon, when somehow our conver
sation turned to education. He con
fided to me bow he felt inferior
to the young engineers who had
been to college and of whom he
probably had more than a dozen
upon his staff. They had degrees
while he had only been as far as
the third grade in school, it struck
me funny, I had s couple of pro
fessors who signed M.E. after
their names - attempt to drive a
little engineering knowledge
through my dumb mental process
es while I was in college, they
were merely juniors when com
pared with the ability nd know
ledge of this man who felt inferior
because he had only been through
the third grade of a log cabin
back-woods school out in the wil
derness of Montana.
Jeff Riddle felt his inferiority on
two counts, one was his education,
the other very likely was the fact
he was half white, half Indian;
nevertheless, he was impelled to
write a book on the war to correct
what he felt were gross misstate
ments of tact. He had no alibis to
produce to cover his actions in a
war, no honor to defend, and his
mother had been made the hero
ine of the drama consequently,
we must give some careful consid
eration to his stated purpose: "In
writing this little book I want to
say I did what I thought was my
duty. I have read so many different
works on or about the Modoc War
of 1873 and '73. The books I read
were so disgusting, I must say
that the authors of some of
the books certainly were never in
the neighborhood of the Lava Beds.
They must have dreamt of the Mo
doc war."
Riddle was perfectly familiar
with the several versions of the
story that has been given in this
column, the battle of Lost River
is no exception. Riddle knew the
Applegate version by heart yet he
leaves out the Applegate name and
any reference to Ivan Applegate's
story. Even in the case of the
Boutelle incident. Riddle goes as
far as one man can go In calling
another a distorter of truth with
out deliberately writing the words.
telle's action as told to him by the
Indians and then in a footnote he
gives Boutelle s statement as he
wrote it for Cyrus Townsend Bra
dy, since both accounts appear on
the same page we must accept
Jeff Riddle's Intention as being
clear that he desired to call at
tention to the fact that in Riddle's
opinion Boutelle did not tell his
story truthfully.
One can see that the white men
would hate to admit being defeated
by a small group ot Indians after
they even laid down their rifles in
front of the troops. That was giving
the white man a big handicap and
speaks poorly for the marksman
ship ot the soldiers since the In
dians would have had to bunch up
around the pile of weapons when
they recovered them. This story
has become so confused by the
various statements of the actors In
the event that I am inclined to
give a lot ot serious consideration
to Riddle's statement.
It is unfortunate that Riddle has
very little to say about what tran
spired on the other side of Lost
River at the camp of the Curly-
beaded Doctor and Hooker Jim, yet
the events that transpired on this
side of the river were probably
more important than what hap
pened in the camp of Captain
Jack.

HAL BOYLE
The Doctor Says
JAMES MARLOW
By EDWIN P. JORDAN, M.D,
Few of us escape the experience
of having a severe headache
though some certainly suffer
much more than others. The only
good thing which can be said
about a severe headache is that
one forgets it almost at once: al
though I have had my share 1
cannot remember just exactly
when each and every headache
occurred nor how lone it lasted,
There are several kinds of recur
ring headaches. Some of them are
brought on by emotional upsets.
others are labeled migraine, and
in still outers additional causes are
recognized,
It is now felt, however, that most
headaches are associated with
changes in the circulation of the
blood vessels in the brain, though
the cause of such changes may
differ from one person to another.
If the headaches are largely on
one side migraine is probable,
condition the origin of which is
still somewhat shrouded in obscur
ity. So far as remedies for mi
graine are concerned, there are
drugs available which often can
shorten or bring to halt an at
tack if they are given at the ear
liest possible moment. These
drugs, however, are powerful, and
are not without danger, so they
should be taken only under care
ful supervision.
Severe or repeated headaches
are often difficult to diagnose. The
complete history of the attacks,
the kind and location ot pain, and
the preceding symptoms, if any,
must be studied.
The nhvsician who tries to dis
cover the cause must know the
circumstances under which the
pain first developed, whether it
came on gradually or suddenly.
whether it was constant or irreg
ular, how long it lasted, what part
of the head was involved, and sim
ilar facts. In addition to this, be
must know whether nervous ten
sion was present before the be
ginning of the neaaacne.
A complete physical examination
is deslreable. The sinuses need to
be eliminated as a cause and the
eyes also. Special tests may have
to be made in order to find out
whether the headaches come from
local relaxation ot the blood vessels.
The treatment of any type of sev-
Riddle gives the story of Bou- ere headache Involves two steps.
WASHINGTON W If the
Army-McCarthy hearings accom
plish nothing else, at least they've
enabled the public to examine for
an unparalleled 36 days not only
the main characters but the char
acter of the characters.
Like him or not, Sen. McCarthy
dominated the hearings, due to
end today.
The hearings would have been
routine without him although
much of the time he played the
same record over and over:
speeches about his patriotism, his
zeal against communism, his de
sire to give the public the truth
It was his unpredictable weap
ons that caused uproars and kept
interest alive: his sudden attack
on an individual; a new charge:
the introduction of a picture or
document.
He acted like a man who felt he
was persecuted, repeatedly finding
or imagining new Individuals In
n:w conspiracies against him. He
attacked, belittled or challenged
anyone who crossed him.
No matter where the camera
was it always came back to Mc
Carthy.
And through it all he demon
strated to the Eisenhower admin
istration that if it ever tries again
to cut him down to frying size in
something like this, it had better
be sure it throws in a man as
tough as he Is.
McCarthy showed one weakness
he reacts to needling and ridicule.
Those two weapons in the hands
ot an iron-hard opponent who used
them relentlessly might have driv
en McCarthy into costly explosions.
But the Army's counsel, Joseph
N. welch, was not the man.
Welch, a 63-ycar-old Boston law
yer with 35 years' trial experi
ence, was no match for McCar
thy in vitality, aggressiveness or
even in flexibility.
McCarthy worked on Welch, at-
driving him to tears in a good
demonstration that emotionalism
or softness won't work in dealing
with McCarthy.
Welch has wit and mockery of
his own. McCarthy seemed to de
tect in the very beginning he might
be embarrassed unless he could
throw Welch into a tailspin. He
took Welch's measure fast.
The first is to try to relieve the
Immediate difficulty as rapidly as
possible. Some kinds of headaches.
especially the so-cauea "ouious"
type, can often be relieved by
simple patnkllling drugs, like as
pirin. The more severe varieties
may go on in spite of drug treat
ment.
The second step Is to try to
identify the cause or at least the
physical or emotional factors
which tend to bring on the head
aches. If this can be done the
frequency of the headaches often
can be greatly lessened.

In the early days of the hear
ings, when McCarthy briefly took
tie stand. Welch had a look In his
eye which seemed to say he'd en
joy having fun with the senator.
McCarthy squelched him.
In an obvious and theatrical ef
fort to discomfit Welch, McCarthy
turned his back and answered him
contemptuously. The flabbergasted
welch never ' seemed to recover.
Thereafter Welch's vlt melted
away.
There has been some speculation
that the contrast between the gen.
tie Welch and the aggressive Mc-
Curthy did the latter damage In
the public mind. That s doubtful.
Those who admire McCarthy
probably found In these hearings
new reasons for their admiration.
Those who disliked him before
probably dislike him more.
Any resemblance between these
hearings and a courtroom, where
McCarthy would have had to oper
ate within strict rules, is purely
coincidental. No judge would let
him art away for a minute with
the tactics he used in the hearings:
long speeches Instead of answers,
personal attacks and accusations,
and diversions.
But in the hearings he was play
ing in his own ball park. He had
helped make the rules. He lumped
over them when It suited him. Ex
cept for three Democratic senators,
sitting with four Republican sena
tors as judges, this was Repub
lican show.
McCarthy was in frequent
vranglea with the Democrats
McClellan of Arkansas, Symington
of Missouri and Jackson of Wash
ington but less with McClellan
than the others. But he had few
tangles with his fellow Republicans.

Night Club Raided
By Police Squad
BALTIMORE Lfl A flying squad
of 10 policemen early teday raided
the Oasis night club, Baltimore's
most famous night spot to out-of-towners,
and arrested everyone in
the place, including the orchestra
and patrons.
Lt. Joseph Byrne, vice squad
chief, said he acted on complaints
there were nude women in some
the acts. "We found them," he
said.
Police used a patrol waeon shut
tle service to haul an estimated
200 persons to central police
station.
As she climbed in the wagon,
one blonde entertainer said in a
complaining voice: "Why, it was
just a little ole girl doln' a little
ole dance."
ANNIVERSARY
CAIRO m Egypt, one of the
world's early monarchies, cele
brated its first anniversary as a
republic Friday. The day, was de
clared a national holiday.
NEW YORK Pressure on the
pocketbook is easing a little here
and there as summer comes.
There's hope today that before the
hot weather is over, you Duty see
still lower prices If only slightly
lower on a few of the things you
buy.
Competition among salesmen,
and a growing abundanco of raw
materials and manufactured goods
are the underlying causes.
Wholesale food prices have al
ready dropped. Talk of lower
prices for still more foodstuffs Is
being heard.
Bargains appear more frequently
ai the clothing counters.
Gasoline cuts appear in scattered
areas despite the Uislslenco of oil
industry spokesmen that general
price cuts are unlikely.
If you're building a house this
summer you'll find prices ot a
number of building materials a lit
tle lower than a year ago.
Counter to all this good news for
Uie consumer, however, is the ten
dency of most basic raw materials
to hold firm In price.
There is a good deal of talk of
higher prices for the basic com
modity, steel. Much of the talk la
based on the bargaining just now
between management and labor
over new pay contracts. Talk of
higher prices Usually is spread
around during auch bargaining
periods. But It Is taken seriously
enough this time, apparently, tor
a number of steel users to step up
their ordering now to beat any pos-
tioie rise in prices.
The carpet makers are beginning
to hlko their prices. They cite an
Increase in the cost of carpet wool.
And they point to the high operat
ing costs which made many com
panies look bad profltwlse in their
first-quarter earnings statements.
But thrifty shoppers have been
doing pretty well for some time
now in the stores in many lines-
food, apparel, household appli
ances.
Some of the lower prices you
find In the shops aren't reflected
in the factory price lists. Mer
chants have shaved retail prices
for promotion purposes or granted
discounts or generous trade-In al
lowances. Some merchants say they are
looking forward to seeing these un
official lower prices openly listed
by some factories this fall. 1
Mall order houses, whose sales
have been trailing last year by a
greater margin than retailers in
general, are starting to lower cata
logue prices.
Prices in the new fall book of
Sears, Roebuck, for example, av
erage out 3'i per cent below its
last fall catalogue. Sears says its
prices this fall will be the lowest,
on an average, since 1850.
Milk, cheese and Ice cream
prices should come down, the U. 8.
Department of Agriculture says,
perhaps with a little wishful
thinking.
