In the secretary of state's office at Siilem the feminine
jKiition of' the payroll will be confined to unmurried women
in the future, or at least to theme lacking means of support.
So says Hal Hoss in a letter to a young: lady employe just
married. "Under present economic conditions" the secretary
of state says, "where a great many people lire seeking: em
ployment, and where actual want exists in a great many
homes because of lack of work, I believe it to be the best
interests of the people if preference in employment be given
those persons who have no other source of income. . ,' I am
not asking for your resignation at this time because you
were not familiar with my views. I would ask, however,
that you make arrangements within a reasonable time so
that I can consistently establish a policy of asking all women
workers who contemplate matrimony to plan on giving up
their work at the same time." And it's a policy thnt will
meet the approval of a great majority, in the state.1 It is
in keeping with Mr. Hoss' reputation for efficiency, for
udministrative wisdom.

A JUDGE TALKS HARD SENSE
: , In federal court in Portland Judge Bourquin, of Montana,
refused a parole to a criminal convicted for fraud and his
discourse on the subject is good, hard Bense that might well
)e studied by the careless and wayward individual who snaps
his fingers at petty violations of the law, who fails to con
sider the consequences of detection and conviction. Tart
of the jurist's comment follows:
"The debt incurred, it is a poor spirit which
t would avoid payment. From every considera-
' tion, better the debtor pay like a man than
welsh like a rascal. Repudiation of debts al
, ways debases, and there is bankruptcy of
, ! morals as well as money. The plea of first of
fenders is easy to make and hard to refute. It
is often the false claim of him who is the first
detected." ;
"In so far as consequences to family arc con
cerned, they are the price which to avoid,
inspire men to avoid crime. If, despite them,
- . a man takes the risk, the family may take the
consequences. If he forgets the family then, he
cannot decently ask the court to remember it
now. His the crime, his the obligation to pay,
and his the responsibility for any consequent
, hardship to his family. Moreover, no encour
agement must le given to the fallacy that a
family, if not a license to crimes in its skirts,
affords sanctuary to escape the penalties of
crime.
"Assurances of lesson learned and future
Hghteousness will inspire moi-e confidence after
than liefore payment. The latter are incited
to fear of punishment an3 hope to escape j the
former, inspired by a chastened spirit and con
trite soul whose honest debt has been paid. The
ends of justice are not met until the vital ol
jeets of penalties are served, by no means the
least of which is to afford a deterrent warning
to others who might lie tempted to imitate the
offender's Iwd example."
. Too 6ften, wo believe, the plea of a destitute family Is used
to win the lienency of a court and punishment is avoided.
For the sake of law observance and the prevention of cnnie,
it is far better that the county or the state take care of a
criminal's dependents than that he lie free of punishment.
Let his failure to give proper consideration to his family
before hand be n warning to those who are a bit careless but
undetected in law violation.
Judge Bourquin's attitude is to be commended. We would
make more rapid progress in the administration of justice
und more universal law observance if all jurists thought
likewise.
