I WORK AND SELF SUPPORT j
In his address at the Salem Chamber of Commerce lunch
eon yesterday, Senator j F. J. Tooze, ckai rman of the ways
and means committee of the upper house of the Oregon Leg
islature, expressed the conviction that all the men in lhe
penitentiary should work. j 1 j
That it is the duty of the Legislature to find work for all
of them: and in such work as will contribute to both their
support and their reformation.

WHAT SUGAR BEETS CAN DO

There is a sugar bee.t contest on down in Ventura and
Santa Barbara counties, California, with

one including fields from 15 tb 50 acres land the other fields
over 50 acres. I
For the first year, E. G. Qutland, 6f Santa Paula, was

Th a -writer maria ' th' statement! ori I th 'occasion men
tioned that it would pay the state of Oregon to build a beet
sugar factory, and grow its own beets arid manufacture them
into sugar for the use of its institutions, if a' sugar factory
could not be had in any other way j
And this would not be an pnheardf thing. Louisiana
has a sugar factory in cpnrectjon wth jis peitentiary, and
grows its own cane. , And mere sugar to. the acre can be had
: from sugar beets than can be had from bugar cane-i-
And the Louisiana penitentiary is expected to be made
self supporting, largely from the manufacturing of sugar.
' It would be much better to get sugar factories built by
private capital, or by cooperative effort, than to have one
owned by the state, of course. j -! 1 , ;j .. j ! I ; -I

neglected. X r "J; :, " '
And, by the way, why do not the railroad people decide
upon the rate to be allowed on sugar beets proposed to be
reflected in the great number of home service departments
with , their lectures, cooking classes and radio talks which
have been installed during the past year by the gas com
panies of the United States, j .
: Nearly 8,000 high schools in this country now give
courses in domestic science, with a total enrollment of about
400,000 girls and 3,000 . boys. This compares with only
X50 schools ten years ago. The enrollment of girls taking
these courses in grades 5, 6, 7 and 8 of the elementary schools
approximates 3,700,000. I ,
This means that there are well over 4,100,000 children
of school age learning how to cook and keep house according
to the most modern principles. ; I ;

experiment: leading
to the erection here of a beet sugar factory next year.

THE FOUR BULLION LEARNING TO COOK

The much discussed flapper is actually showing more
interest in the kitchen than in the cabaret and enjoys the
frying pan even more than the rouge pot. This is the in
ference which may be drawn from the Recent report "of : the
United States Bureau of Education, which says that the in
crease of student enrollment in home economics exceeds that
of any other subject in" the curriculum. " - H j I
This ambition dn the part of American irirls to learn
nqre about ths ecientific znanagementi of their homes ;i3
The president's agricultural
commission has made a third re
port and again puts its finger on
something that is wrong. This
time it goes after the departments
in Washington declaring that inter-departmental
and inter-bureau
jealousies have produced unfor
tunate results. It charges that a
dog-in-the-manger' policy of rival
ry has retarded the work for the
farmers, especially Is the lack of
unified credit system attacked. In
many Instances the commision de
clared more effective administra
tion requires only the adoption of
a more sympathetic and aggres
sive attitude on the part of gov
ernment officials. This comes
mighty near being a charge of
snobbery. Then there is duplica
tion of work found. ' : f
Discussing "Inter -departmental
Jealousies," the commission said
it realized that "personal or politi
cal influences and the civil service
status of employes who may of
fend In this respect present limi
tations to the extent to which ad
ministrative officers can remedy
the ills." It suggested, however.
that each new administration, in
dealing with proposals for expand
ing the activities or influence of
departments or bureaus, consider
the value of the service to be ren
dered, rather than "demands aris
ing out of departmental rivalries
or Jealousies." i 1 ;
Methods of procedure and prac
tices developed by the interestate
commerce commission, It stated,
"are constantly making it difficult
for a shipper to obtain redress."
"The cost of employing counsel
tnd the necessary experts," it ad
ded, "makes it almost impossible
for the ordinary citizen to get a
hearing. There are few, if any,
courts where it is more expensive
or more difficult to obtain relief;
neither is there any court more
deliberate in reaching its decis
ion." ' ' '
The report said it was apparent
that multiplication of work in the
commission and limited funds had
contributed to the situation. As
a remedy, it proposed that the fed
eral cooperative marketing board,
reation of which was urged In
an earlier report, could investigate
complaints regarding rate mat
ters affecting agriculture and oth
erwise act in advisory capacity.
FOR PEACE
There has been a good deal of
careless talk about war to end
war. It never happened and the
only way it can happen is for one
side to anihilate the other. ; - War
has already made Itself repulsive
and ? repugnant. ; Certainly the
way has " ben paved for lasting
peace. : It is -hard to find anyone
that believes in war. J Everybody
is against it. We are not a nation
of pacifists; we are a nation of
common sense people. We see
that war does not pay. If neces
sity for war arises, we will have
to have it and go through with it
but it is up to the American peo
ple to prevent that necessity.
Dr. Clinton N. Howard, who lec
tured here three times Sunday is
an exponent of peace. He takes
a very sane and sensible view. He
says that there can only be an end
of war by a reasonable compro
mise 'between the nations of the
world to avoid armed conflict. He
argues that the end sought by
war can be gained by other pro
cesses. The main thing at the
moment is to unite the thinking
peoples of all nations upon a pro
gram which pro videB no opportun
ity for war. but which offers the
choice of several roads which,, if
followed, will insure eventual
peace. That is the end sought.
There are a thousand ways to
avoid war, just as there are un
numbered ways to foment It. '
Public sentiment is : created
largely by people - talking -among
themselves. ; The press gives them
the subject matter , and they fol
low it up with discussions and con
clusions. The women in the
United States are a powerful force
for ' peace, i They do not want
America , committed to bloodshed.
They, do want America to "stand
for righteousness. Women have
never loved war; they have hated
It but they never hated it as they
do now. Women have advanced
so much In intelligence and have
taken such a. commanding place In
the world that they are doing
their oW tilnkiri? and they know
war Is.wron thAMt c23 r ot be
&eiende"
THE FIRST SHOVELFUL
A long long dream, if it can be
called a dream, came to a success
ful conclusion yesterday when T.
A. Live8ley broke the ground for
the new YMCA building. Salem
is doing much for its youth and
this building Is an expression. ' In
the old quarters, bad as they were,
it is doubtful if an association on
the Pacificcoast functioned any
better , and ' few of them as well.
Secretary Kells is I an executive

for the boys. . He has also a most
extraordinary assistant In Bob
Board man, a man who Is sacrific
ing much that he may serve the
boyhood of America It Is little
wonder that with such big cap
tains as these for the YMCA that
the people of Salem wanted to put
it in a creditable building. It is
a 'glorious event anyway to have
ground broken for the new build
ing.'" .";"V 1: V- .
JHY BE BREAK
The dispatches tell us that there
is liable to be a break between
Col. Harvey and President Cool
idge. Of course there is. Col.
Harvey is one man who believes
in breaks. He profited so much
in the break with Wilson that he
has been impatient j to make an
other one. He will not have the
same luck with Coolidge as with
Wilson. Wilson happened to be
a democrat and this country is
easily influenced against demo
crats, but in the long run Harvey
helped Wilson very; much. He
did not prevent Wilson becoming
president and he did not prevent
his re-election but he did preju
dice him before the country. The
chances are that Harvey is seek
ing an opportunity to break with
Coolidge and as far as we are
concerned, we are willing for him
to do it.
HONORING ITS SON
The beautiful spirit exhibited
towards the memory- of Homer
Davenport should attract wide at
tention. Here is a busy commer
cial city, building fact, increasing
cial city, building fast, increasing
terial things and yet it always has
time to honor the memory of the
one great artist who has come put
of Silverton and out of Oregon.
The monument recently erected
there shows the appreciation of
the people. We donot know just
how much money was Taised there
but the inception and the spirit of
it belongs to Silverton. The
monument is a testimonial to the
finer, higher things of life by a
busy community and shows the
American spirit in its refinement.
PROVIDING QUARTERS
- It is highly important td pro
vide quarters for the boys and
girls exhibits at the state, fair.
This department has ;? grown so
fast that it must have attention.
The boys' and girls are! the hope
of Oregon and In providing them
adequate ' facilities'; for displaying
their talent industry, and accom
plishments, the legislature will be
encouraging the youth of the state
to do Btill better and better each
year. If the children get the idea
that they are neglected and not
properly provided for, they are go
ing to quit. Children are more
easily discouraged; than' grown
people and we must take them as
they are and not attempt to meas
ure them up to grown standards.'

THE TEXTS STANDARD
. 7 (Copyright, 1923, by San Jose Mercury)
41IIARITY covers a multitude of sins," whereas, hate, pre-
J judice and intolerance often see wrongs in others that do
not exist. No man ever hated or condeimned his neighbor that
he did not injure and lower himself. The correct, the Christian
attitude is to believe in and love our neighbors and all humanity,
not because-we see them always acting wisely or living elevat
ed, Christian lives, but because God has created them, because
His life is in them and He is working in them to bring them out
of the condition in which they are into something higher, purer
and better. T
Although some may be sinful, intemperate, ungodly or even
criminal, we should stilt love them, because they are God's chil
dren. " Our little child who has not yet come to the years of wis
dom manifests the impulses of his animal nature. He gets angry,
for example. "But we do not cease to love him for that reason.
If we possess the wisdom that a parent should have we have
charity for his childish, undeveloped condition. Instead of
hating him we love him all the more, and through this love for
him we lead him and help him to overcome his childish impulses
so that when he comes to manhood he has put away these child
ish things and can control himself under all circumstances.
The man who has not come in development where he can con.
trol the impulses of his animal nature is not a man. He is only
a grownup child, He is a man hTphysical stature, but a child in
real growth and ; the development, We should .therefore ; lova
him just as we do the babe, knowing that in time he will grow
into real manhood. ; Hating him will not help him in this
growth, while love will, and this love will also elevate and help
us to approach more nearly the true, the Christian standard in
our own, lives, the first requirement of which is to "love our
neighbor as ourselves."
Snobbery is quite as disgusting in the church and its .members
as m those outside of it.; -The man who sets himself up as above,
or better than, his neighbor gives evidence by such an attitude
that he is in the same undeveloped, unchristian condition that
his neighbor whom he despises is in. He may not be committing
the same sins that his despised neighbor commits, but he un
doubtedly has others quite as debasing and disgusting. "There
is none perfect, no, not one; all have gone out of the way."
Until we have come "unto a perfect man, unto the measure of
the stature of the fulness of Christ," where, as Paul says, "we
are.no more children,? the most becoming attitude for us is
one of charity and humility. r r
Besides, our human castes and distinctions are artificial and
entirely out of harmony with the true standard by which all
men should be judged. J Money, worldly success, social position,
power, or even education in books, are not the things by which
men should be judged. f The servant of the queen in her castle
may be far above her mistress in real worth and nobility, while
the man who is digging :ditches who has not a dollar in the world
or decent suit 'of, clothes may be far above the millionaire or the
most learned professor. It all depends upon the life that each
is leading. The trampi in the street who wDl not work, who
perhaps, by yielding to the baseness in him has brought him
self into a condition where he cannot work, is but little if any
worse than the millionaire who spends his time and money in
idleness and dissipation and in gratifying the worst cravings
of his nature.' No matter what he thinks o fhimself or what
others think of him, the man in broadcloth' who lives a sinful
and -ungodly life and is doing, nothing to make the world richer
or happier or better is just as mUch of a worthless drone as the
man whose sole occupation is to walk the streets and beg for
his food and shelter. Men and women should be judged by the
standard of real manhood and womanhood and by the blessing
they bring to others, to the world. Not by what we profess to
he nor by what we think or by what others think we are, but by
what we do, by what we live should we be judged. So does
God judge us if we take the words of the New Testament.

One may be converted, which "means only that he has re
ceived the baptism of Tepentance, that he wants to put away
the grossness and sin of the physical life and to come into right
relations with God, He makes profession of his religion and
joins a church which lie attends and helps to support But
if his neighbors see that all this has not much changed his con
duct or character, if it has not affected his business principles his
relations with his neighbors orr his attitude toward the moral
problems of the world, would "they be misjudging him if they
conclude that he has noi real religion. , . :
Religion is a reality, a substance. The Scripture reports
Jesus as teaching that when we are born again, born of the
spirit, the old heaven and the old earth will forus have passed
away and all things will have become new. If we really have had
this spiritual awakening our methods of thinking and doing will
for the most-or us be .revolutionized. And we shall take our
