Now perhaps the weather man will settle down to the
job 6f giving us a little summer weather.
"Jack" MacNider, of Iowa, former, assistant secretary of
war under Coohclge and past national1 cuhtmilndur of the
Legion, has been nanled minister to Camulrt by President
lldover. An extremely difficult and important post, the
choice seems very happy. Mr. MacNider is experienced in
business, tactrul, ltkenlile. He Will, we nre confident, serve
his country with distinction, ,
Nd one is pni'tietilai'ly to blame for the confusion resulting
front La Grande's trial of daylight saving time. A week ago
sentiment throughout the business district seemed very
niilch in favor of the experiment. The petition that was
circulated met with practically no opposition. The city
authorities simply acted oii that biiRis and recommended the
time as requested by a long llRt of petitioners. It Was the
general impression that everyone would set their clocks
ahead and go by the hew time, ' Trouble appeared when it
was found that this Was not the case. No one anticipated
the confusion or objections that have resulted) At least
their present extent could not. be ''anticipated. Otherwise
the1 plan would probably hevei' hav6 lieen inaugurated. Now
it is simply a matter of determining what the majority senti
ment is and acting accordingly. . No great damage has' been
done by ,fflalj;g,,tho,..tr.hll., : ; .. w -. ,
The defeat of Mr. Grundy at the hands of Pennsylvania
republicans indicates that politics in that slate are not as
rotten as we have been load to believe, Mr, Grundy was very
successful as a lobbyist. He w!is quite prominent as sen
atorial appointee. But as a candidate he is ft flop, He made
the mistake of beginning his political career In office. Ap
pointed to the senate Without h campaign; the people got
acquainted with him while he wlls denied the opportunity of
getting acquainted with the people. As is Often the case,
voters didn't like the sample.. And Mr. Grundy is out.
Which proves there is nothing like tenure of Office to cool
early enthusiasms. Campaigns, promises and pre-election
reputations lire bright colors that often fade terribly under
the strohg light of office occupancy.
Oregon people, who were interested in the recent primary
election are awaiting the supreme court decision on Joseph's
disbarment proceedings with keen interest. Many observers
contend that the court will hot dal'e dlsbnr the republican
nominee for governor, thilt it will dismiss the case. On the
other hand, The Observer is of the opinion that the court
cannot fail to follow the recommendation of its referees for
disbarment without losing caste throughout the state nnd
showihir Its willintrness to be Intlinited bv tiolitleal influ-

afraid to. Many laymen will come to the conclusion that
supreme court justices temper their decisions to conform
with polities, that fear Of failure to win reflection changes
their minds, that they, do not Constitute a court of law and
of Conscience, but a court of expediency. And if Joseph is
disbarred, there are many others who will contend it was a
vindictive decision influenced by his attacks on the court. ;
In either event, the decision will be misinterpreted and un
fortunate in its effect on the public attitude toward courts
and politics.
UNSELFISH USES OK MONEY
America needs a past and America needs a tradition. Very
well, it will construct one take a town and make it Colonial.
And do a good job, too. It is rather staggering to hear that
in the twentieth century a Colonial town will be built, lint
that is to happen, for Williamsburg, Va., will move back
through time and become very much as it was in the war of
American independence.
Here is another example of the strange interests and re
markable generosity of the American typo of Maecenas.
There is, it appears, no rich American today who does not
have his dreams. And there are many rich Americans. One
U4iiy cunuci lunus aim inaunjscj ijt , hiiuuiui may uuy j.iuttib
and Rembrants; another may start operas and symphonies;
another may build a great library or establish a foundation
j for health or aviation; another may revive old dances and
I restore old inns, and now John D. Rockefeller Jr., will rebuild
ja Colonial town. But none of them is niggardly in his,
: dreams.
J In the past nabobs have collected treasures and founded
j houses, all to their own glory and for their own pleasures. j
But in America the urge takes an unselfish expression. !
Somehow they seem to feel intensely that money is fori
another purpose than their own. The world has benefited !
by this hunger of rich Americans. It has at its disposal '
humanitarian services that leap over frontiers and objects of j
beauty which lright never have been known had not the ,
mohey been easy to give. j
