COMPLICATIONS
It almost seems, this winter, as- if the fates had mal
ignantly contrived a peculiarly vexing- set of problems for
the statesmen of the world, and for all of us. , y )
To complicate the infinite difficulties arising out of the
" world-wide business depression there is the weary tangle of
(reparations -and war debts demanding, settlement. Then,
to make the situation more intricate, came the Sino-Japanose
imbroglio with all of its fateful possibilities. -''J
' And now comes the Geneva disarmament conference to
cap the climax. The exasperating fact is that all these
prooitjjiis are reiatea. lacKie one, ana tne otners are prompt -

i THAT MEXICAN TOMB
j - Necklaces and breast plates
, doves eggs, jade ornaments that are beyond price, carvings
; oPalabaster and amethyst, vases of gold and onyx the
j treasures of the ancient tomb recently opened on Monte Aft
ban, in old Mexico, seem to be the sort of thing archacolo
: gists dream about but seldom see.
Undoubtedly the discovery will be of great importance for
ithe light it will shed on civilization in Mexico before the
Spanish conquest Even tetter, however, is the fact that its
dazzling richness will lead many Americans to a new interest
.in that old civilization.
: One of the most romantic and colorful tales in all history
;is the talc of ancient Mexican civilization. Yet most of us
never bother to find out about it. We know that Mont-.
zuma ruled the Aztecs when Cortez came, and that the Spifn-i
iards took many a shipload of gold out of his realm but
that's about all. The details of the bizarre civilization that
the Spaniards found and destroyed are a closed book to us.
And the book is well worth reading.
If ever men stumbled into an enchanted land, those con-
quering Spaniards did. Small wonder that Bernal Diaz, their
historian, wrote wildly and krt all power of criticism behind
;him! Enlightened and superstitious, rich and half-naked,
polished and crude, refined and cruel the Mexican civiliza
. tion was a bundle of riddles, a mass of contradictions that arc
not even yet entirely unraveled.
Where did they come from, those ancient Indian civilizers?
Whore did they learn the arts and sciences that made their
; cities dazzle their conquerors? Where did they get that
siaunng legend 01 a white god who came out of the Atlantic,
taught them for a time and then sailed away into the east?
Whence came their ornaments of jade found nowhere else
in the new world? Where did they git that old-world enir
: blem, the swastika? Why did they have a cross in so many
' of their sacred carvings?
There are dozens of similar questions to be answered.
,,The field is almost incredibly interesting. The man who is
induced, by this new tale of a rich tomb, to do a little reading
about" ancient Mexico will fmd himself richly repaid. -

NOItTJI WESTERN MILK AND
MONEY .
I Eleven yeara ago Mr, Frederick E.
;Murphy, a successful farmer Just be
come publisher of The Minneapolis
Tribune, came to his office resolved
to put Into practice certain Ideas
which had grown up In his mind
ifrom a ' three years' Vacation on a
igrain farm. There was a severe
.'agricultural crisis In ' that year of
sharp deflation. Tho farmer's friends
In Congress were bifsy making relief
mils. "Let us help ourselves," said
Mr. Murphy,-no believer 'in govern
'merit aid. The Northwest had stuck
to single wheat-farming during and
after the war. : Yield, as well as price
was small. -.. Mr. -Murphy's ..remedy
was "good farming with good, live
stock." Tho Agricultural Credit Cor
poration of Minneapolis was organ
ized to help the grain-grower not In
good circumstances to buy dairy
cattle and sheep.
Under the new system agricultural
Income Jumped enormously, almost
9100,000,000 a year. But how have
things been In the last two years,
when farm and commodity prices
again slumped? Mr. Murphy says:
Farmers of the. United States as
whole In 1031 had an income of
1.03 per cent less than In 1011.
The Income of Minnesota farmers
In 1031 exceeded their Income for
1011 by 61 per cent.
A great new buying power has
been created In. the Northwest. ! Mr.
Colllsson tells us about It In a pam
phlet on "The Golden Land of Milk
and Money." He proves by charts
that tho prices of most dairy, live
stock and diversified farm products,!
are even now a Dove tne average Be
fore tho war, and, that "most of these
prices have been far above tho price
level of general merchandise for years
in exchange or trading value." The
one-crop farmer Is In the dumpo. The
good farmer's buying power Is still
high. Minnesota's annual butter crop
yields $125,000,000 a year, a value
niore than that of all her small grain
crops, a third more than that of her
Iron crop. In .the four Northwestern
states, Minnesota, the Dakotas, Mon
tanat tho dairy cow is "a $300,000,000
industry." In Minnesota the big
feeding crops, corn, hay, oats, bar
ley, bring in nearly (250,000,000 a
year: . '
How do we market these crops?
As butter and beef, pork and lamb
chops on the hoof, as milk and
1 cream ana wool, the products or
1 diversified live stock and. dairy rarm-
jlng. Our . barnyard flappers alone
give us a crop of eggs und poultry
worth 180,000,000 (our , times . our

THH SOVIET CONCEPT.
" : OP L'lllfUlj.
Twonty different crimcB in Russia
to which capital punishment may bo
applied arc listed by Arnold Margo
lin, former Justice of the Bupreme
court of appeals of the Ukraine. That
one which would be defined in this
country as first degree murder Is not
among them.
" Tho penal code adopted in 1920 by
tho Soviet Republic approaches crime
from a new angle. Tho codes of the
wostorn world have been founded on
tho old. Roman law which assumed
that tho criminal acted with malice
and was entirely responsible for his
deeds. Tho Russian theory Is wholly
deterministic. According to It, hu
man actions arc predestined and there
Is no such thing as the free will of
tho Individual.
. Crimes In tho now Russian law arc
'divided Into two classes; those against
tho Soviet regime, and nil other
crimes. Only thoso of the former
kind aro punishable by death. They
include counterfeiting money, start
ing revolutions, or carelessness In the
performance of official duties. For
all these crimes the codo prescribes
tho penalty, and If It Is death the
courts cannot give ft lesser sentence.
For other crimes tho code lists the
maximum penalty. For example,
premeditated murder is punishable
by not more than 10 years' solitary
confinement.
Tho Soviet criminal codo is In per
fect harmony with the communistic
princlplo which recognizes the stnte
first and the individual second. Yet
It is hard to reconcile this as justice.
Only In a country where human life
Is held to be worth very little could
murder be regarded as a far less
sorlous crime than the passing of bad
money. Eugone News.
THE OPEN SEASON ON
11AKU AINS ;
Surely it ts a buyers' market, when
dollar bill will purchase 91.79
worth of goods. Never wos the stuge
so advantageously set, during the ex
perience of present generations, for
such an adventure Into bargain
land. A shopper who spends $100
now receives a $179 value.
Yet, despite this situation, which
has been brought about by abstin
ence from buying, people aro not
purchasing. It has become fashion-
able not to buy. It has become the
budge ot business acumen, the out
word ond visible sign of thrlft in
short it hos become the habit of
thought of tho American people.
This hns brought about a tremend
ous deflation In prices. It has created
on open sooson for bargain hunters,
yet nobody goes forth to hunt.
Peculiar, isn't It, that our psychol
ogy can moke sheep of us? Yet It
does. The wife of a civil service
government employe, whoso job ten
ure Is safe and whose sotnry has hot
been cut a penny, was heard-to re
mark the other day that she couldn't
afford to buy a new dress these hard
times. But the fact Is that she' can
not afford not to buy. If she has
the cash, she should buy a half dozen
dresses, all that she can wear out be
fore the styles change. If she should
take that course she would prove
herself a good business woman.
Why? Simply because this won
derful buyers' market Is not going to
last. 'Already the government is tak
ing steps to end It. That is the pur
pose lying behind all the remedial
legislation which congress is enacting.
The national finance reconstruction
program is all designed to not only
stop deflation but to bring about a
mild inflation of prices that will put
an end to' these days of wonderful
shopping values.
Tills wife of the government em
ploye Is going to. see within ( snort
time, an Increase - in prices, ail along
the, line. Now Is the time to fill the
home with staple groceries, -. with
staple goods of all kinds. Right now,
today, ther should be a rush ,to the
stores for the-bargalri days wilt be
history soon. 'The man or -woman1
who has ready money can nearly.
double it by spending It now.
After the upward price movement
comes, the American dollar won't
come back to its present ' buying
power In the life time of present gen
eratlons.
The moral is: "Buy Now." Every
family that has a Job can safeguard
It in no better way than by buying
liberally. Albany Democrat-Herald.
MCKKI) AGAIN
After all the agitation and extra
vagant claims of tho wets about the
reversal of public sentiment toward
prohibition, their resolutions looking
toward a retreat have been Ignomlni-
ously defeated In committees both of
the senate- and house. The senate
committee submerged by a large vote
bill looking toward modification.
Now a house committee by a vote
of 14 to 0 defeated tho resolution
proposing a constitutional amend
ment passing liquor control back to
the states. This was the pet bill of
the bl-parttsan bloc of wets, but it
failed to get over the first hurdle.
Representative Linthicum, author of
the resolution, asserts ho will make
an effort to bring It up in the house
by petition. But Blanton of Texas
told him ho was making an "idle
gesture."
The dries still control congress;
but that Is no reason they should be
Ighs vigilant. The wets are constant
ly becoming more aggressive. ' In this
state a repeal proposal will be voted
on at the next election. The dries
will have to depend less on past suc
cess and more on future energetic
fighting. They will have to press
campaigns of law enforcement and
of education of the evils of use of
alcoholic liquors. The moment ttvsy
lag and waver, they will be licked.
The Issue of prohibition may be de
termined In the happenings of the
next few years. Oregon Statesman. 1

WASHINGTON Mrs. MavyJor-i

Is a practical politician and she plays
tho game of politics astutely. ; a-" .
She goes her ,way much like her
