The Mexican newspapers echo the complaint. They insist especially that the police quit Hhootlng; at drivers . for violating the traffic laws. That eeems to be a common practice. Not that anybody down there objects especially to motorists getting shot. The trouble is that Ithe police are such bad shots. Instead of hitting the drivers who are running down pedestrians, they usually hit the pedestrians. Several have been killed ro cently In that way. The situation seems to, call for reform. At the same time, it bespeaks a notable improvement in Mexican conditions when the police have ho greater prove cation for shooting than traffic offenses. . We seem to have most of the bandits up here now. i JUSTICE TO INDIANS. The Pima Indians are in luck. Not such luck as has come to the Osage tribe, through the discovery of rich oil deposits on their, reservation, but possibly better. It is luck in the form of justice. v Uncle Sam, building the great Coolidge dam on the Gila 'v.er-il.-4l'lZpna,.lsgoinK..to.'use ,its wators- to irrigate 80,000 acres of rich land, of Which half will be cultivated hy the Pima Indians. This will be the payment of an obli- ' tration incurred half a century ago when white settlers di verted the water from the upper stretches of-the Gila and so rendered baren those Indians once fertile fields. Tho government promised them it would provide water, ond at last the promise is in the way of fulfillment.' The tribe will . have a rich area on which it can raise not only com and beans but cotton, oranges, figs and dates. V While Uncle is about it, perhaps he can find some other tribes, now virtually starving on the unproductive areas to which they have been driven, and do them belated justice in some form or other.' Uncle Sam has enough on his con science, as regards the Red Man, without standing idly by nnd witnessing the extermination of any more Indian tribes. A D1UED-UP PRESS. "We will have dry newspapers," remarks II Tcvere, Itoman Fascist organ, referring to the changes ordered by Premier Mussolini in the Italian press. Not meaning non alcoholic, but desiccated. There will bo virtually no foreign news it is enough for Italians to read of Italy. Sport, art, literature, court news, especially criminal news in which the Italian public has always revelled, will be gradually "dropped. The papers Will all become little more than organs of the Fascist gov ernment, or else go out of business. This latter alternative Is encouraged. There is to be only one newspaper to a province, explains Signor Turati, secretary of the Fascist party. Personal journalism is doomed. j v "I am determined," he says, "to destroy the innumerable weeklies which, although dealing with national problems Und spreading 'fundamental Fascist ideas, represent solely the personal acidity and literary impatience of their edi tors." They have no right to express any acidity and im patience except those of Mussolini. "Some of our com rades have already set n good example by suffocating their Own creatures," he adds. "I will cite in an order or the day those following this example." So here is the end of a journalism never efficient, ac cording to American standards, but until lately free and democratic. American editors who have upheld Mussolini nhd Fascism should now go to Italy for n career. 16 Stills Discovered In 23 Oregon Counties SAI.mr. Ore. .Inly 8.
