Newspaper Page TextTHE OREGON; DAILY JOURNAL.', PORTLAND, FRIDAY, JANUARY; 2V 1920. TRAFFIC OFFENDER: FINIK PHiNPF (IF . I ll iUJ UIIIII1UU Ul ESCAPING LAWS W' v Many Influences of Friends Fac tors; Legal Technicalities Oft times Prevent Convictions! J A broad field is open to the traf fic law violator who seeks to escape punishment. Means of slipping through the net of Justice are nu merous and varied before the of fender is finally forced to answer for his infraction. Unless those char-god with enforcement of the law deal with an iron hand, the of fender is likely to flifd an avenue of escape long; before his day of Judgment. The police are charged with the duty of arresting violators. The officer may be a very close friend of the offender or other pressure may be Invoked to prevent the arrest. That is the first chance to evade the law. IXFLUEXL'EM ARE FACTORS The channels of Justice then lead to the traffic bureau, where It may be found that the "offense la not serious" or that there are other reasons why the man should not be sent to court 'Per haps the "evidence is not sufficient" or the witnesses might not be competent. Or perhaps the Judge, on similar evi dence In another case, "refused to con vict." Then enters the city attorney to prose cute the case. He may hold that the "evidence is Insufficient" or that there are "too few witnesses." or that there are "mitigating circumstances." And he may recommend leniency to the court because of "such and such" circum stances, etc Or perhaps lie. too. be lieves the Judge will not convict under certain circumstances. The court is the next step. If the of fender fails to get his brand of Justice, an appeal la the logical course. And mayhap some arrangement can be made with the city attorney on appeal to rec ommend leniency or dismissal of the case. COURT HEARINGS t'CERTAIN "New facts" may be brought to light, "mitigating circumstances" found, or maybe even at that late date the evi dence may be held to be "insufficient" The case then goes to the circuit court for trial. All this is a long gauntlet to run. There are many ways to beat the game unless the prosecuting officials are strong. The fidelity of several function aries Is tested In practically every traf fic rase that goes to court. Friends and associates ask aid for friends. Influential men search for means of gaining leniency or freedom for comrades, and various propositions are placed before officers. If one of several men weakens, the law is ch ated. One man escapes and an-otlit-i Is punished. The honesty und determined purpose of present officials Is not here ques tioned, in spite of the efforts that are known to have been made to lead them from the path of duty. llnM Pmhlhllinn rlohna Inn A prohibition celebration will be held in the (Methodist church Friday eve ning.

ASTORIA NAVAL BASE Portland Chamber of Commerce Joins Move to Aid Pacific Coast Defenses. Informed of a growing disposition on the part of confess to defer and pos sibly refuse appropriations for carrying out recommendations of the Helm com mission and McKean board for establish ing a naval base near 'Astoria, the Port land Chamber of Commerce la urging members of the Oregon delegation to move for immediate action. Other organizations on the Pacific Coast have also been Informed of the danger of deferring appropriations for Pacific Coast defenses and will likely join In a concerted demand. The Oak land Chamber of Commerce has sent the following message to the local chamber : "We are urging immediate appropria tions on the grounds of false economy to maintain half of the American navy in Pacific waters without adequate fa cilities and largest stretch CT improperly protected coast line In the country, and pointing to findings of the Helm com mission, the McKean board and Secre tary Daniels." The chamber has also received a mes sage from the Vallejo chamber asking that the local organiiation support the contention of that city for maintenance of the Mare island navy yard. In view of the 'stand of the Vallejo chamber, that Bremerton and Mare island are sufficient for the accommoda tion of the Pacific fleet, the local cham ber has denied support to the Southern city, forwarding the Information that Portland is urging the establishment of a base on the Columbia river.

Kraemer and was centered against placing one-way traf fic on Alder street while Morrison and Washington are unchanged. They did not oppose the plan of one-way traffic. Woodward urged that elimination of all day parking would alleviate present traffic congestion. He urged that all downtown streets be made one-way traffic thoroughfares rather than the present scheme singling out certain streets that he stated were without con gestion. JTO JELLY FISH.

"If the people want a jelly fih in office, let them place one here.. This thing is right : I'm going to see it through." Men operating for hire cars declared that their business would be ruined under the ordinance, which would take away the privilege of parking cars at special stands. City Attorney La Roche was instructed to re-draft the original ordinance intro duced by Mayor Baker to include amendments suggested by the commit tee of business men and the committee from the National Safety council.
