CRIME AGAINST WHOLE PEOPLE I The commercial salmon hatcheries of the state of Oregon and all the operations "of the master fish warden and the director of natcheries cost, for the year up to December 1st last, a total of $174,502.67. This sum was derived from poundage! fees, fines, cannery and seine and net and boat licenses and other charges .; Was paid by the people engaged iirthe commercial fishing industry; (Tha game fishing industry is a separate depart ment.) : ; ."' !- ; ' J ' y Hie operations of the master fish warden and the director of the salmon hatcheries are carried on. principally for the protection of the supply of fish . ":. . l t ' And the oneration of the 28 hatcheries and feedinsr Donds and, stations for; securing the fish cost last year ?104f7J6.51;j and the number, of fish and eggs handles j&n to the huget total of 184,128;268kt a cost of 57 cents per 1000 . And practically the whole of these operations were on streams that are tributary to the Willamette, and on the cctjsrais--- .V " : -. " ' "'"..::' Andvhyl -. - - ; The answer to that question furnishes the crux of the reason why the Columbia river should be entirely cleaned up; made free from the operation of fish wheels, traps and other fixed gear , Because when this is done, the number of fish hatched and released to go down to the sea and come back fish of commercial size may be increased almost indefinitely. The - reason is that the "Columbia and its tributaries cover an empire, compared with the Willamette arid its tributaries. But there can be no hatcheries maintained by the state of Oregon on the Columbia and its tributaries, because the fish wheels 'and st gear in the Columbia river'get nearly all the fish on the way to the spawning grounds. - The Santiam and South Santiam hatcheries send each year past Salem overv 11,000,000 young salmon, on their way to the ocean, to come back commercial fish And the fish wheels and set gear get half of them. The 5000 to 7000 fishermen get the other half.. : : H ....... - The number of fishermen might be increased to 30,000, or pernaps 50,000, with the Columbia river cleaned up and hatch eries maintained on the tributaries of that river vAnd the, fishing industry might bring" in $50,000,000 and more- new money annually, instead of the $10,000,000 or so now. " - ' ' ' , These; fish; wheels. and their kind are a crime against our wnoie people; it is 50 men (and mainly two men) against a , million people , ; . 14 k an industry strangled in place of an industry free and unhampered for great expansion. V '.'.." Then why, in the name of common decency, does not the legislature pass the bill before it, to complete the work started oy tne people in their vote at the November election : Why is the Columbia river not cleaned un? : It is a' matter of common honestv and nnWiV nosnmr an4 horse sense to unbind the fetters of the commercial fishing , muusiry or uregon. m aaaa a mmj 4 f ' " ' A WAGON FOR A COW or in stock.

I Why not? There is a provision of the Oregon law covering such cases, when the church or society of such a boy is willing to undertake his care and supervision.' .That is very wise. There is nothing of the spirit of j vindictiveness in Oregon's organic lawJThe spirit is the opposite; it is reformatory. There is little or no chafice of reformaton in vindictiveness.

UomX ij Science Comes to Resclie , of American Family Life CHICAGO. (AP) Science can find out what Is the matter with the American family; believes Ernest R. Mowrer, professor i ef sociology at the University : of Chicago. f I It these is' to be less home dis ruption and less' f looting of fam ily ties, it will be because the soc ial sciences axe developed to' an equal degree with' the physical sci ences and so throw light on the ills of homelife, he contends. -The church, the courts and the community,; he asserts, have not met the problem. t "The right combination has not been found In court control," Mowrer says, "and the church has not succeeded because it places emphasis on sins rather than mer its. ' . " r ' 'There is no reason to assume other than that the social sciences can develop-schemes and techni ques, which will secure adeiuate control over human behavior in the same way control In the ma terial world has been- secured over so-called natural sciences.
