GREAT NEED OF DEVELOPMENT
f ' a The Statesman of last Sunday contained a statement of an
editor of a farm paper in the East that no more reclamation
.work is needed, nor will be for a long time-?-,
- While we find President Coolidge saying that, "Even now,
- we consume more calories of food in this country than we
produce' and that .'.'our only agricultural exports of conse
qnence are cotton, meat product and wheat'and as to the two
latter it mast e plain that the scales will shortly turn against
;us.". ... i; ;;7 ; ;;,. '
v And we find another estimate that by the year 1950, only
25 years hence, the population of our country will be 150,000,000
people; and that it is absolutely necessary that we add to the
farm producing qualities of our lands jn order that we may feed
this additional 40,000,000 mouths..' -
' It is not necessary thM we should produce all we consume.
We will' find it profitable' to import some foodstuffs; but it is
important that we should be self sufficient in the things we can
produce with good profits, and which will aid in our manufac
turing development like sugar, wool, flax, potato starch, and
hundreds of other articles.
, ' Our greatest need is development along the lines of both
. reclamation work and diversification of crops. " .i
' , .
The Statesman regrets the inuendo in the heading of an
article concerning Henry W. Meyers, printed on the first page
I of yesterday's paper. $trj Meyers has made a generous offer
I to the Salem hpspitat goffering to furnish the funds to build two
hew wings; to receive an annuity during the life. time of himself
and Mrs. Meyers and then the loan to be cancelled; no part
i the principal to ever, be paid. Te Statesman reporter made
it appear that Mr., Meyers made the offer in order to have a
position for life. That is not the truth. The Statesman does not
wish to be put in the position of giving currency to an untruth
about any man or woman, or of doing any person an injustice.
And the writer believes that there isaltogether too much of such
inaccuracies and injustices done by most newspapers these days.
A DANGEROUS SUBJECT
The prf ss carries report of professional prizefighting be
tween two young men recently prominent in the athletics of
two old and honored educational institutions. That the event
was. a disgrace to the men is generally conceded. .That the
moral tone of college athletics by such performance is lowered
la obvious. And the question arises could anything else, be
expected from the kind of inter-collegiate "boxing" contests
which have been growing more and more punitive as they
have become more and .more commercialized? When does
a hose made bloody or brain and body fobbed of the power
,to retain equilibrium as the result of sledgehammer punches,

signify "boxing"' and when "prizefight" ? What educational
pride must swell the heart and the head of the college athletic
coach as he trains the boys for these contests ! How altruis
tic the taxpayers feel when theyi understand that their money
is going .to pay for .this marvelous type of physical training!
What elevated ideals in Jack Johnson, Luis Firpo, et al! v ,
Boxing between friends may be ah admirable sport and
within the - walls of the ; local gymnasium under the direct
supervision of a well-poised educational director and with no
other emolument than the love of athletic sport td encourage,
it is no doubt of value. - v
Inter-college boxing contests introduce the element of
such intense rivalry as to render it ajcin to the brutal prof es
sional game. It is a notable fact that the ethics of inter
collegiate boxing have speedily descended to very low levels.
Advantage is taken in the contest of every weakness or pain
and the severest punishment possible is purposely inflicted
and this in the face of the sacred ideals of college training.
t What will hinder college "boxing" from making feeders
for the prizefight so thoroughly discredited by decent people
because of its attendant graft, fakery, brutalityand lawless
ness? ' 7-;-'. 7-7:-' -j - ':' -:;--7"-.
The United States government should permit boxing only
under conditions where it cannot be commercialized. Every
state in the union should outlaw brutality and physical crime
now committed in the name of prizefight. And even colleges
should make sure they are not encouraging 4hs :..evil in'fheir
athletic "boxing" contests. ; ' 1 ';; :
