IThe dangers of city streets keep on increasing in hundreds of crowded centers, as automobiles and trucks become more. numerous, and in many places are poorly controlled, .much is said by safety authorities against the dangers of "jay-walking", cr the habit of jiedestrians of cutting across streets at points other than the regular crossings. The pedestrian often dodges out from behind some parked automobile which completely shield ed him from the view of the driver coming from behind that car. Still drivers passing such parked cars ought to go slowly, so they could stop if some one bobs up suddenly. The public is exhorted to cross at regular street crossings, and this is usually the best place. Yet many of these regular crossings, unless well protected by traffic officers, are dangerous places. A person desiring to cross at such a street corner which has no traffic cop, must look in three directions almost instantly. He must look to the right and then to the left, and then must look behind him, to see that some car has not stolen up behind him, and is preparing to make a quick turn around the corner into the street which he wishes to cross. Perhaps it is this peril that makes some people resort to jay-walking at irregular crossings. Some drivers will push ahead at crossings at a rate so rapid that pedestrians have to jump for their lives. Pedestrians should stand up for their rights more persistently, and report the numbers of those guilty of such operation. The habit of quick turning around corners causes many accidents. Many people who are doing these reckless things right along should lose the right to operate a car for a long period. 0 Tho old idea of women's position was that they were a pos session of the men. Even after cave men's methods of rough treatment Vent by, it was still customary for many women to I promise to obey their husbands. The majority never did so, still a considerable number were in practical subjection. Occasionally men turn up who still can't soem to adjust themselves to the mod ern iKiint of view of tha independence of women. A Chicago man was in court the other duy, for a family jar occuring when he ob jected to the action of his wife in bobbing her hair. Hut the judge ruled that a woman had the same right to control her hair-cut as to decide how she should vote. People who still take the old point of view might go to Germany, where the tradition of woman's subjection still exists to a large extent. Hut even in that coun try, a people that have overthrown an emperor, w ill not inde finitely permit any male king to rule their households. 0 Tho development of the automobile has proved of great assis tance in many crimes, and a host of malefactors escape by juni ing into a fast car and eluding their pursuers in no time. Much is likely to bo done to offset this advantage by the wonderful new method by which pictures are being sent by wire. The speeding automobile is fast, but electricity is faster. It will be of much help in the detection of crime, if when such an offense is com mitted by a man whose identity is known and whose picture is possessed by the authorities, if the same can be printed in news papers all over the land within a few hours or minutes of the com mission of the deed. The two Chicago moral perverts who cruelly murdered the Franks boy, seem likely to get "hitched up" with other atrocious crimes committed during the past year in the windy city. After waking confession to their last and most horrible execution there (teems nothing too outrageous to le placed to their credit. The multimillionaire pair ought to swing off the scaffold without a moment's delay. Anyway, it's a good thing the primary elation passed off be fore the present spell of warm weather, and the general election coming in November will save many a candidate from getting hot in the collar. How about that big Indian xnv wow that was scheduled to be pulled off in this city sometime during the month of July?

While there ia cause for complaint aganst the state board of control for failure ere thia to buy a site and build a new training school for boys, as directed by law, there is also ground for crlticttim made by the Sa lem Journal of the vurlous welfare societies for diverting the board from the new school on the present sue. The nresent site, as stated by the Salem paper, contains more than 500 acres, 200 acres of which are fine bot tom land. The site averages well in comparison with submitted tracts. Ad joining land. If needed, can be pur chased at a reasonable price. The objections made to the tract are that a highway runs through It and that the state penitentiary can be seen in the distance. Thus, be cause of objections which have to do with desire for perfection and witn ihn dniihtful usvchological effect f the far-distant view of a prison, it is I insisted that $65,000 more be ex pended for a new aite. The legisla ture has heeded these objections and has provided m re money, but the members of the board of control have been unable to agree upon the new site. Oregouian.

The sheriff's office today announced that a report here last night that a small girl had been criminally as saulted at Tehachapt was unfounded. Deputies investigating the report at Tehachapi said upon their return that a small girl there) bad been beaten by her stepmother. There was no foundation for the report that a tramp or a citizen of Tehachapi had attacked the girl and that later, when pursued by a mob, he ex changed shots with memliws of the purported mob- fmim a cabin in which he was reported to have taken refuge.

STATE PiiESS CLMKXT 4 Truth In Advertising The truth was held up to advertis ing men as of prime Importance In their profession in the message of President Coolidge to the convention of the Pacific Coast Advertising clubs of Fresno. "Advertising," he said. "Is the given word of the producers to the customer. As advertising men It is your duly to see that the word Is not broken and to keep faith with the public which relies upon you for guidance In the daily affairs ot life." Advertising has become important reading matter. When a firm tells the public of its product It is at tempting to create a contact which should be beneficial to both. The fact that a certain automobile concern has reduced prices or added improve ments to lis cars Is more important to prospective purchasers than the news of some scandal in New York for proT advertising la not entirely pro paganda.

Eugene Guard. Either the Boot or the Ax There was every reason why the Pendleton Commercial association should withdraw from the L'uited States chamber of commerce. The na tional chamber has shown itself to be a conspicuous foe of agriculture here and all over the land. H is sponsor ing a high tariff act to make farmers pay more for everything they buy but it fights the McNary-Haugen bill which seeks to place the former upon the same plane with the manufactur er. Such a course is contrary to all the rules of justice aud couimou sense. In self respect the Pendleton club had no course but to withdraw from the national chamber. It is time to let the tin gods of in dustry and big business know that their work is too raw. It is not nec essary to be diplomatic about it. When a heavy percentage of farmers all over the nation are going bank rupt; when men who have followed the soil for years see their earnings shrink away and measures for their relief encounter the opposition of men dementallst and modernist, in the earlier days, the convention made a number of compromises that result ed In a better feeling among the delegates.
