Why?
WHAT la wrong with Amerlcu
that such crimes an Hie one
In Taeoina, tlio siuylng of uie
Lindbergh boy und tho slaying ot
tlio Hart boy In Sun J oho continue
to occur?
Such tilings mny hupiicn In
China where lifo le chcup bul oven
tboro children are not victims, it
seems that only in this country,
ot tho entire wostern world do
such things happen.
And yet we proudly boast the
best ot everything for our people.
We bavo tho highest standard or
living In tho world. Our working
feople are tho best paid. Our
school system is unlvcrsul and
good. Our Byatoin of higher edu
cation Is not only much mors ex
tensive but is more available to
all ot tho people than is the cuse
in ally other nation on earth.
But In splto' of all this we seem
tp exccll In1 producing urch fiends.
It is inconceivable but it is true.
Tho hunt is on nation-wide
for tho kldnupor and slayer of tho
Malleoli boy. A fiend is abroad
and an entire country Is aroused.
It seems Hint tho nieru ciipluro and
hanging of such.u person Is not
enough to coinplololy discourage
this sort ot crime It Is a form of
dementia but it will help.

R AMBLINGS
OF THE
NEWS-REVIEW MAN
BY PAUL JENKINS
I WAS walking across tho Oak
streot bridge yesterday morning
taking somo pictures from It oC the
Icy r 1 v o r and
lro&4 encrusted
trees growing
along the banks,
when 1 met Levi
White. "Kind of
snappy weather.
Isn't It?" 1 re
marked to him.
"Hrother, U you
think this Is cold,
you ought to
lluvn been where
1 just came from
a few days ago," lie told me, un
buttoning his overcoat like he
thought it was getting kind of hot.
"1 just returned from a three
weeks' visit to Idaho, Nevada and
California, and. hit weather 32 be
low zero. We my brothers und
-drove throughg a blizzard In N?n ' S k and pies-
vada for 60 miles, with the thei- ,"''", .. ,..UC0 ,ie
niometer 111 below, and of ull the
nightmare trips 1 over took in my
life, that was the worst. Tho snow
was over 4 feet deep, at tne SIDE
of the road, with about a foot of
snow IN it, The wind picked this
snow up, dry and sharp as Band,
und carried It In a bitter blast that
would almost cut the windshield,
let alono the exposed faces of those
of ub who took turns walking ahead
of the car, to show the driver the
road. .
"Am I glad to got back to Rose
burg? You may quote me us say
ing thai I'd rather be here than any
place in the world!'.'
Well, alter that 1 unbuttoned MY
overcoat too, and walked along
feeling a lot warmer, for about a
block, when I buttoned It up again,
and hurried buck lo a stove, as
fust as 1 could.
. ' '
The kids, however, certainly en
joy ' this weather we are having,
and a lot of their papas and
niuniinas, too, right ut first; but
the lutter's enthusiasm is cooling
bit, now, along with their feet.
Even the older girls . on Blakeley
street, who last Sunday outdid
their young offspring when It came
to coasting down the hill, have re
membered socks they had to knit,
in the house by the fire.
"You ought to come out and sco
that well we got," said W. O. Roch
ester, foreman at the Forestry
warehouse on the Dixonvllle road
few days ago, ns 1 met htm on
.luckson slreel. "You remember
me telling you last summer that
we wore going to have a Water
witch do her stuff out there? Well,
sjio sure did 'or!" .
Iielng a bit skeptical about water
witches, 1 determined at the! time
to go out and- watch her tit this
particular Job,, but somohoW Kim;
other failed to do so.
Yesterday I asked Vernon Harp-
ham and Mob McClay about the
flow of water. 1 also asked them
about the water witch. They were
very loquacious about tho water
flow; and extremely reticent about
the water witch. Yes, they admit
ted, the diviner found water there,
right' where they had arranged to
sink a well, anyhow. Yes, of course,
they 1)11) feel relieved, when the
rod dipped, right where they had
decided It should. ,
. Anyhow, they sanli a shaft a bit
over 60 feet, the last 25 through
solid rock, and struck a mighty
fine supply. It ran 16,000 gallonB a
day. They constructed a regular
cistern, which, should the subter
ranean source play out at a"y time,
could be replenished from the city
water system.
The new water supply was need
ed for fire protection, chlofly, the
o:ficlals said, as the city pressure
fire hazard there to a negligible
quantity.
Passing the Presbyterian manse
on I.ano street yesterday evening,
1 was just In time to see Dr. Fan
cette climb In his car and start to
pull away from the curb.
Hut the sloping pavoment was
Icy, the wheels spun. Tho doctor
was headed east, hut his' car in
