UNSOUND FINANCIAL CONCERNS
Governor Patterson's plan to weed out unsound financial
concerns to protect Oregon investors is commendable. This
is one matter in which an ounce of prevention is worth a
pound of cure. An investor who has lost his money in an un
stable institution derives little consolation and no material
benefit whatever frojn any punishment inflicted by the
courts upon the individuals at fault. Vhat is needed is a
safeguard prevention of entry into the state business field
of any concern unable to furnish satisfactory evidence of its
absolute soundness and responsibility. As Governor Patter
son pointed out in a statement acccrnpanying the appoint
ment of an investigating committee, a charter granted by
the state to a financial concern should be considered a guar
anteo to the public tiiat the recipient is worthy of complete
business confidence. And the state should also keep its own
house in order, a suggestion prompted by recollection of the
failure of the Ochoco irrigation district project. The stale
guaranteed the interest on the district bonds for the first
five years, but when the scheme collapsed before the expira
tion of that period the state, taking refuge in technicalities,
refused to pay the bond holders. It is doubtful if a private
corporation could have escaped satisfaction of such an obli
gation. However, the affair has passed into history in the
foilm of a compromise that cost the bond holders a big sum
of money, and.it is safe to assume that the experience gained
in tho debacle was of mutual benefit to all involved, even
though it may have left in the minds of the bond holders
- an uncomplimentary opinion of the value of a state endorsement;-

Wo hear a great deal these days of wcitian's fight for
sex equality, but there is one point in which woman gets all
of the breaks. That is the matter of hot weather clothes,
custom demands that a man must keep his coat on, no mat
ter how hot the day or how clean his shirt. There is hope,
however. In Berlin recently a business man, sitting in his
office removed his coat. Then he called his stenographer to
take dictation. She took one look at him and fled. Then she
, f iled suit to recover her wages, charirinir that her em
ployer's removal of his coat constituted immoral conduct
which compelled her to give up her job. The court, we are
glad to hear, decided against her, ruling' that a man's right
to escape the heat by sitting around in his shirtsleeves is in
alienable. That's fine. Some day we hope that coats will be
laid away, when July comes to be donned only on the, ap
proach of autumn. .

There is a pretty streak of kindness and generosity in
most people, if you care to look for it. Not long ago a gang
of bandits staged a holdup in Kansas City. A policeman,
James Smith, interfered. They shot him, dead and escaped.
Ho was survived by a widow and several small children, and
the future looked pretty black for them. Then his fellow
townspeople got busy. Smith had died in the line of duty,
denfeuding Kansas City against thugs; would Kansas City
see his family suffer poverty? Kansas Citv would not. A
collection was taken to establish a trust fund for tluim ; then
another collection was taken to build them a house. Now the
house is under construction, and nearly $20,000 has been
placed in tho bank for the, widow and children. People, arc
after, all, pretty generous and kind if you appeal to them
properly. '

Keep fresh your curious seeking mind ;
