EDUCATION AND AMt'SEMENT
Americaii's .spend, too much for education, some people
claim. Yet Americans spend for. cigarets and amusements
half again as'much as they doonull elementary and second
ary schoolsii They spend as. mUch money on motor cars as
on all1 education.' ( The niggei-in-the-woodpile of course, is
that one doesn't buy luxuries' with tax money.
, , , , A; PLACE. TO PUT. THEIR MONEY ,
Both- Pendleton and! The Dalles are looking at the future
with more optimism!' now. A. bank has been opened at the
flatter place and a bank will be opened in Pendleton in the
gnmediato future. .
,. Normal; financial, conditions again will rule in! these two
Eastern Oregon cities, and probably no one Has' felt the lack
qf banking institutions more during the last few months
than residents of these two places, V
y; La Grande has a'faint idea of the hardships Pehdletbh and
The Dalles have gone through, but fortunately the people of
this city and valley we're able'to restore their bank td excel
lent standing many months before their less fortunate neigh
bors could again-have access to. the' receiving and paying
tellers' windows. ... ' ' ; . .
MORE C0STLYTHAN wAr
At the present rate of fatality something like 25,000
Americans- will' be killed' in 1938 by' automobile accidents.
Ai.d with present unabated; average holding up, something
around' 750,000 , more persons will be injured this present
year by the sairte motor route. . . ', ;'.
-...Isn't, this 'a problem' that is big-enough to interest every
'American. There is ho way. to tell , who may be, the 'next
victim. Tti'e way it goes there 'is always the possibilityithat
it may be yourchild who is' sacrificed next to the Ameiicah
demon of speedj reckless or careless 'driving".
Why can't we all seem to be concerned? You would be? if
one of your loved: ones suffered next, ; Why wait till the next
block, turn or comer to slacken speed why- not starC'riow
a more careful observance of traffic regulations why keep
waiting until tomorrow to change a lot of things about driv
ing, we all know are careless and could lead to trouble or acci

: ... WAR IN EUROPE? f:
Notwithstanding the compulsoivy disarmament of Germany
as a result of the Versailles treaty, more, men are under
aims and ready to fight in Europe today than in i9'M, prior
loathe World war.
There are conflicting interests and dangerous problems
diyiding 'the European slates and. actual fighting is not as
reiijote as most people think. The feverish anxiety of states
men. .today to reach some agreement regarding armament
reveals the fear which lurks 'in tnoir minds.
. While there are other problems the three most dangerous
issues in Europe today are probably these: (1) the Polish
Corridor, that little 'harrow, neck of land connecting Poland
with Danzig, which also divides and separates German ter
ritory; (2) the conflicting ambitions of Italy and the en
larged state of Jugo-Slavin over the control of Albania and
with it the entrance into the Adriatic; and (3) .the continued
resentment of Germany over its treatment since the end
of the World war and an increasing determination to resume
its place as an independent sovereignty.
Of bourse, Germany does hot desire any war at the present
time, i Compared with her neighboring stati Germany is
hopelessly disarmed and incapable of waging a modern war.
On the other hand, Franco and Poland see in the growing
possibility of Germany being allowed to increase its 'military
strength a strong danger and may desire to bring matter to
a crisis now and prevent any possibility 'of ''a serious 'threat
jn the future. Whether or not war shall come in Europe
depends upon the attitude of France and her allies because
unless these countries eventually consent to a revisionNif
the post-war settlement all the aggravated problems con
fronting Europe will continue to fester and may eventually
provoke hostilities.
Trading at home is tl e only way to maintain the pros
perity of this community. Boiled down .that's the truth,
reg irdless of whatever else may be said.
