Highway Walking
The lot of the pedestrian is a hapless
one and one of great danger as witness
the reports of sudden death coming to
many people who exercise their right to
walk on the highways. The victims are so
many th a t serious conideration should be
given the question by lawmakers, public
officials and all citizens.
The driver is under a terrible handi
cap at night, due to the blinding lights of
approaching cars, rain and fog and other
conditions th a t make visibility poor, dark
clothes th a t one cannot see and similar
conditions. The pedestrian should step
clear off the highway when cars are ap
proaching. He can never be sure th at he
has been seen by the driver and he may
be struck down through no fault of the
motorist.
One person here has advocated the en
actm ent into law for several years of a
measure th a t would require pedestrians
to carry a light while w alking on t h e
highway, the same precaution th a t is re
quired of automobiles, etc. O thers feel
th at paths should be provided off to the
side of highways and pedestrians prohib
ited from walking on highways. The first
would be most economical if coupled with
extreme care on the p art of the pedes
trian, which doesn’t seem to be in the
cards, but the latter would be safer.
Change the Rule
Hard, fast rules as to deadlines on re
lief, are liable to cause a great deal of
hardship. For instance the rule th a t only
those on the relief rolls November 1 were
eligible to work relief is a lot of hooey.
Such cases include those who took sea
sonal employment early this year a n d
were on these seasonal jobs at the time of
the November 1 deadline. Now they find
themselves losing their jobs because of
seasonal shutdowns and because they were
not on the relief rolls before the Novem
ber deadline they are ineligible to work on
WPA projects. Such people are deserving
because they have tried to help them
selves.
There is little rhyme or reason for
discouraging self betterm ent efforts and
this ruling should be changed if we are to
get the most out of the work program .
W ith announcement of the 21st con
secutive dividend of the W ashington Sav
ings & Loan association, J. M. Person,
m anager, predicts considerable h o m e
building here for 1936. The need for new
home construction here has been evident
for a num ber of years. One realtor, re
cently, said he knew of but one house in
town for rent. A t the rate prospective
renters call a t this office to check on the
houses to rent column the need is brought
home to us in a big way.

INTERESTED in early road information
Hillsboro, December 16.
Editor A rgus—To those of us who rem em ber the
conditions of the roads of this county forty or fifty
years ago, the present state of our highw ays and b y

All then knew of the te rrib le need, but few, or
none could point out a method by w hich th e desir
able end could be accomplished. B ut a w onderful

It would be interesting to know when, w here,
and by whom was th e first h ard surface road con

Happy New Year
A Public Disgrace
It is to the shame of America that
Colonel Lindbergh and family found it
necessary to leave this country for more
or less permanent residence in England
in order to avoid threats of kidnaping of
their three-year-old son Jon. A fter their
experience in the last four years tew p ar
ents will hardly blame the Lindberghs for
this action.
This self-exile of the Lindberghs is an
indictment of the American attitude to
ward crime and criminals. Not only your
neighbor or your neighbor's neighbor, but
the attitude of all of us. A greater incul
cation of the English spirit of law and
order, creation of the attitude th at law
infractions should be reported to the prop
er authorities, rather than to look t h e
other way with the thought th at report
ing to law enforcement officers would be
the act of a “stool pigeon.”
Legal technicalities throw n in the way
of justice, which result in countless delay
of punishing the guilty, contribute much
to conditions that undoubtedly influenced
the Lindberghs in self-exile.
Reopening of the H auptm ann case by
Governor Hoffman of New Jersey after a
fair jury trial in the Lindbergh case had
resulted in a verdict of guilt in th at hid
eous crime, the resultant publicity a n d
other factors would have their effect on
any parents who had gone through t h e
terrifying and sorrowful experience of
the famous flier and his wife.
Such action should shame us in this
country to a point where we could bring
about a complete reversal of American a t
titude toward crime and changes in legal
and court action with resultant speedy
punishment of the guilty. May the time
come when the Lindberghs will feel free
to return to their native land and enjoy
the peace and comfort to which they are
entitled.
