I: ) - ' .The. scientist who says tliat there are no reasons why men should not live to be 150 apparently hasn't thoqght about the present tendency of the motorist. In the old days the advice given to young girls was ''You are too young to marry," but with the present in crease in divorces it probably has been amended to: "You are too young to start marrying." A NEW PARKING SYSTEM. The proposed new system of parking cars in the busi ness district of La Grande has some disadvantages but there are also distinct advantages that commend it to those desiring better regulation of traffic and the elimination of driving hazards. Parallel parking will require a greater amount of park ing space during the time when the city's streets arc most powdod and it will also result in some discomfort and an iioyance to those drivers who are not familiar with tho iliiiqkest and- easiest vray 4ti which to get rThr parallel to the curb when hemmed in by others ahead and lehind. l!ut these objections will be overcome with rapid adjust ment to the new system, and, as the city authorities point out, more driving space will be given and there will lc less danger from fire trucks important considerations dur ing heavy traffic hours. Traffic will not only be speeded up considerably but many accidents and near-accidents will lc avoided when drivers are able to pull back into the right traffic stream when getting away from the curb instead of being forcod io back out into the middle of Inith traffic streams, which is now often the case with parking at a -I'l-degree angle. Another big objection to the present system will be elimin ated also because a car getting away from a parallel posi tion at the curb will be obvious in its movements, and a driver moving along the traffic stream will not be foreed to guard constantly against some other car backing out into traffic without warning. The City Commission is taking a forward step in lay ing plans for this new parking system and The Observer i.nticipates full approval on the part of the motoring pub lic as the advantages of the new system become more i'pparcnt.

DINNER GUESTS d-r, all the ftanip. Of course the then Attorney Gen era. Htonu knew about tho Mon tana accusation when he launched his own Krund jury Investigation of Kenutor Wheeler here.- 1I knew It was made at a lime which cast otne doubt on Its good fulth. Ob viously It behooved him to move very carefully, or ho might be sus pected of lending hlmuelf to an attempt at persecution. In fact, there actually were complaints. They delayed senatorial confirma tion of tho attorney general's ap pointment to the supreme bench. Certain senators also asked, even obsuming there was a strong caHe against Wheeler, why Indict him twice in two different pluces for tho same thing? Nevertheless the attorney gener al went ahead. Tho Washington indictment was returned. Now about the best turn Attoreny Gen- nil Sargent can do his predecessor is to demonstrate In court that the present Supreme, Justice tit one had mighty good reasons for believing Senator Wheeler had done some thing to be indicted for. It won't look well for Justice Stone to have it appear that Wheeler whs Indict-, ed on flimsy grounds. The justice j Is a very able lawyer, with a high reputntjon for honesty.
