XXIXNO. 188 OF THE EVENING NEW3 ri m m u t? a y iy iii ivj iJ.iu.nt mm FRENCH Editorials on the ! Day's News Bv FRANK JENKINS W. WEATHEHLY, Portland capitalist, is beginning con struction at Springdale, near Port land, of a quarter of a million dol lar poultry farm, which will start off with at least 100,000 hens. ' . So here is ANOTHER man with money who isn't arrald ol the fu ture in Oregon. MR. WEATHERLY Is the kind of capitalist Oregon needs. He lives In this state. He believes in tliis state. He has made his money in this state. And he Isn't afraid to spend It in order to develop the in dustries of his state. Give us enough men of this hind and you CAN'T STOP Ore gon's development, i SECURITIES worth $75,000 were found stuffed in the furniture when police Investigated the sui cide of Mrs. Leila L. Green, of Los Angeles. A fire, starting from any one of a hundred casual causes, would have wiped out this whole tidy lit tle fortune. TURNING to another column, we read that a Los Angeles dia mond broker, traveling to the East by train, was robbed at Kansas City of a pouch containing ?40,000 north of diamonds, which he was carrying loose In his coat. A thief saw the opportunity and seized it. pARELESSNESS! What a toll it takes, year in and year out. The great pity, of course, is the needless toll of human lives taken by carelessness, but It Is astound ing how careless people are with the property they have worked hard to secure. OUT let us get on with this care lessness story. Mrs. Mabel Long, of Reseda. California, wearing a $1,000 dia mond ring, went out to feed the chickens. When she came hack, the stone was gone from Its set ting. Here Lady Lvrk entered the pic ture. Mm. Long started i:l killing the chickens she had fi d, nnd in the crop of the 120th one she found the 51,000 diamond. A JAPANESE woman and her six-year old daughter were walking on the Columbia highway, near Troutdale, at night. They were struck by an approaching car and killed. The driver said he was blinded by the lights or a car he was meeting and didn't see the woman and child. Carelessness again. Terrible carelessness. Walking on the pavement at night Is about as dangerous a thing as can he done, for every driver of an automobile knows that when ho is meeting a car at night there are several sec onds when he Is almost totally blinded by the lights shining In his eyes. COM EDA Y steps will be taken to minimize this danger. We will fbuild pedestrian paths along our main traveled paved highways. The cost will be moderate, and the addition to safety will be great. EORGE V. RUSSELL, Irish critic, poet and painter, recog nized as an authority In the field of rural economics, says we need a larger farm population In the Unit ed States.

IIS 74th Birthday Finds Brandeis At Usual Grind (Associated Press J-eased Wire) WASHINGTON, Nov. lit. Jus tice Louis 1. Brandeis spent to day working pretty much as usual, even though it was his 74th birth day. The occasion passed quietly with the justice engaged in court work at his residence, the supreme court being in recess. Appointed by President Wilson in IStlli, he has for four years been eligible for re tirement but has shown no dis position to lay down his import ant work. , His name recently was suggest ed as head of the Zionist move ment but he has so far given no indication he will retire from the bench to direct It. Justice Urnndeis has long been regarded as an expert in Inter state commerce matters and has written the decisions of the court in many controversies affecting the 'activities of the Interstate coim merce commission. With his distinguished colleague. Justice Holmes, who in March will bo 90 years old. Justice Hran deis has frequently dissented from the majority of the court, especial ly on issues involving public utili ties.

S. veterans' hospital at Portland. He and Floyd Hartman. the court was told, look Smith's car Tuesday, November 4. intending to enjoy a short ride and return the car, having no intent to steal. They were pursued by Smith and wreck ed the auto. Harris assumed full responsibil ity for the act. nnd as a result the charge against Hartman was dis missed by the court.
