No Sinking FuniProvided TTRED Paulus, who is deputy state treasurer, and served M. as secretary' of the budget committee for the city this year, called attention to a very serious defect in the lack of provision for retirement of bonds issued for incinerator and airport construction. When asking why no sinking fund al lowance on these issues was included in the 1930 budget, Mr. Purvine of the council committee stated that the charter amendments authorizing the bonds did not permit the sink ing fund levy. If so these amendments are badly in fault. We had thought it one of the most elemental of lessons in public economy that sinking funds should be provided for bonds of definite maturity, or else 'they should be issued with serial maturities. City Attorney Williams is dead wrong whenJie takes the stand tha these bonds can be,rened eas ily when they mature in ihe years 1936-1939. It may toe that the city's increased valuation will permit the shouldering of this burden in the four years. But the principle is all wrong. Why shouldn't payments on the bonds begin immediately after their issuance. Why shouldn't the burders be spread out instead of allowed to mature all at once? Taxing units halve found over and over again that bond issues for capital improvements ought to be retired year by year, or else sink ing fund accumulation made. Otherwise the improvement may have been worn out when the bonds mature ; or other obligations may have been assumed which make a lump sujn payment a back-breaking affair. i The Statesman serves notice now that it will fight vig orously for precisely the kind of financing which Mr. Paulus urges, and will pppose any future charter amendments which fail to provide tor the right kind of methods of taking care of the indebtedness. We have seen too much crief come in communities where they woke a lot of bonds falling due and no money in the treasury to pay, them with. . Ford Waves Green Lantern. THE obvious reason for the reduction in the price of Ford automobiles is that Henry Ford is waving a green lantern signalling full speed ahead for business. It is one of the several brave gestures which noted business leaders or con cerns have made in recent days Jto restore confidence and reassure the public that business ought not to suffer because of the travail of Wall Street. .Out of the retirement of a quarter of a century John D. Rockefeller, Sr., emerges to issue a statement that he- and his son are buying common stocks. The United States Steel corporation, industrial giant, declares an extra dividend. Likewise the American Tobacco company increases its return to stockholders. Now Mr. Ford bravely announces he is so sure of steady demand for his cars that he can afford to re duce the prices. All of these pronouncements are heroic ef forts to stem the ebb tide. They are well timed, they are . hostages to prosperity . In reviewing some of the recent cases-that have been tried in the local courts, one is impressed with the futility of damage suits un supported by clear-cut evidence. Some of these cases ought never to have been started; and the responsibility rests on the lawyers who started them as well as the persons appearing as plaintiffs. Thl'de cisive verdict of the Juries may teach some lawyers a lesson that they . can't hang absurd claims for damages on other people unless they have strongly supported cases. Some bold reporter asked a New Yorker who had lost a fortune la the crash of stocks how things were going. He replied lugubrious ly: "I hear they've decided to sell the island back to the Indians for 24." It is interesting to watch ihe efforts of the bankers and finan ciers in the role of "all the king's horses and all the king's men" trying to put the Humpty-bumpty of the stock market back in his seat on he top of the wall. " Three governors and a premier lined up with the prize bulb at the Portland stock show this week. The white-faced heifers no doubt missed Walter Pierce. Plenty of soap on the windows after Hallowe'en, but whatever became of the old-fashioned tick-tock spool on the house windows? So Salem high school girls are not so healthy as the boys. Perhaps more of them should have reached for the Sweet. The northwest produced less among the bees, we suppose. The Portland community chest BITS for BREAKFAST -By JL J. HENDRICKS Mexico's bold experiment The adoption of a new criminal code, the subject introduced In this column yesterday, is reviewed In Current History for October, by Salvador Mendoza, former profes sor of law in the University of Mexico City, one of the authors of the new intrument. V . President Portes Gil, himself a distinguished lawyer, has already Issued the new code, under speci to be in effect January 1. As was aid yesterday, it abolishes the terrible death, penalty; and It also f ic powers granted by congress, does away with trials of accused persons by juries. V V V - It introduces a complete new technique for Judging the crime; the criminal and the punishment, and takes a "pronounced, attitude ot human solidarity which sees In the perverse act ot the criminal a shameful product ot the whole of organised - society." Mendosa says It Is "hailed- by public opin ion throughout the continent as one of the greatest constructive ' events in the hlsory of America, and that It Is -especially note worthy beeause It emanates Iron up some grey morning witlff honey this year. Shorter hours has turned out rather flat-chested. Mexico; a humane step has been taken by ene of the countries most scourged by violent death in re cent years." and that "doctrines merely discussed hitherto by coun tries which .call themselves 'whiter' are now pat Into practice by a -nation ot whom few ever be lieved that she could be a guf&e in humanity's Quest for civiliza tion," . V "The school of tragedy and blood" through which Mexico has perforce passed in her many rev olutions, Mendota says, has giv en rise to a social laboratory and clinic" He puts it well. He gave a lecture at Columbia university on the proposed new code, and Prof. Raymond. Moley of the law school of that Institution said: "Mexico is bow opening to lav the way to scientific progress, ot which the legislators of the United States have not even begun to think." "a -w , The key to the new penal code is the fact-that the eld social at titude toward the criminal has changed; he is no longer consid ered as evil Incarnate in man, as a demoniac enemy of society. The idea el revenge, hostility and OUT WHY SODSE A ill: fi 1L CT7& aw CANT 9EE M y f THE NEW HUMANISM "And ye shall know that I am la the midst ot Israel, and that I am the Lord, your God. sad bob else." Joel 2.28. The strength of the Bible has been its note of confidence. It is no tan argument; it is an as sumption. It is not a proof; it Is an offer of assurance. "In the beginning God" are its words ot introduction. A picture of the celestial city is its conclusion. In the pages of the scriptures folk have searched for just such a commanding voice as the prophet Joel quotes: "I am the Lord four God, and none else." There is a threat to this au thority today. Not merely deubt as to the "inspiration ot the Bi ble" but doubt as to the whole concept of religion. That is not new7 one may remark. True. There hare been challenges to the Christian faith from the time of its birth. The newer attack comes as a sortie from behind the breastworks of science, and armed with pikes sharpened in new schools of thought. This new effort has a name, "humanism, borrowed from the old term applied to the first "moderns" who found In litera ture and. the revival ot learning intellectual freedom. The, new humanists seek emancipation from the thraldom ot superstition and along- with It freedom from the old ideas ot religion as well Charles Francis Potter has found ed the "First Humanist Society" punishment have been eliminated. The new code provides for nil the mechanism of public power which has be legally applied to safeguard society; but at the same time it gives space for provisions the ob ject of which are to make useful citizens of the unfortunate persons "who represent a danger to society, through a reform of their habits and mode ot life, and also to Im prove their environment, elim inating from it the original caus es of crime and the breeding cen ters in whch it flourishes and fas tens on its victims. W S The aim of the new penology is to understand the criminal and to bring him back as far as possible under social control. So the in vestigation ot crimes will not be limited to the collection-of facts constituting . the history ot the specific ease ot wrongdoing but will represent the entire history ot the criminal, himself and ot the effect which his -personality has had upon . social ' environment. Prof. Thomas, distinguished American psychologist, has said the criminal net Is "a product not merely ot eke individual but also ot society." w V So Mexico's new' code will ar raign society, along with its crim inal product. Four viewpoints will be predominant: 1. Social In vestigation; to find the kind of tree that has produced the rotten fruit. 2. Anthropological or med ical investigation, showing phy3i cal state, heredity, atavisms, men tal and physical defects, etc. 3. Psychological, psychopathic or psychiatric investigation, tp show the mental-capacity of the crim inal as a basis for judging the ser iousness of the offense.

Educa tional investigation, to tabulate the extent to . which the state tailed to train the criminal so as to strengthen hit moral character. . 1. S These' four things the" Judicial investigators will be required to do under the new code. . With this data, the Judge will find it possible to fix the punishment or rather prescribe the treatment: It Is clear from the foregoing that the Jury system will have no place in the administration of Mexican criminal law, - The work ot the courts will be scientific and tech nical.

He defines Hu manism as a call for direct ac tion in looking for leadership within the human soul and per sonality. To, quote from him: "Erery religion there ha a been, la now and ever will be, has come out of the Blind of man. Hitherto man he modestly end humbly aaid that it haa coma to him out of the ikies- or from some supernatural being or be inn. I like Humanism and am a Human ist became I like to direct. HumanUta recognize and admit the hnman origin of tneir religion, why has your religion come in a reunaaoout way I Why not are time end take a ahort-ent right to the aeurcet ' Religion will gain enor mously when it drops the supernatural ana laces ins facts." This would make Joel's words mer empty rhetoric. "I am the Lord your God, and none else would do vainglorious assump tion, not merely for the occasion but tor the conception. Human ity Is to be regarded as self-controlled and self-contained. Hane ly's words would be correct: "I am th master of my fate, I am the captain bf my soul." In the face of such a challenge it is not enough to quote pious phrases and to rely on ancient documents and arguments. Faith must seek corroboration in ra tional interpretation of life and man's relation to life. When all things are, sifted and resolved, man may find that hope and love are the bulwarks as they are the companions ot -faith. The exist ence of these very instincts may be the soundest proof of the ra tional basis tor a working faith. There Is to be n "supreme coun cil of social protection and pre vention," made up of tire special ists. All the detention places will be under the Jurisdiction ot this council. So will the juvenile courts, reformatories and houses et correction, and other centers ot prevention. The action of the court and the Judge ends with the sentence. At that point the council takes Jurisdiction and de crees the treatment to be given to each delinquent. W The sentences ot the courts are consequently left Indeterminate and conditional, so that the coun cil can fix the best method ot treatment and reform. Does the reader get that? All sentences are' to be indeterminate. That is what th'Bits man his advocated and contended for, during more than 30 years. That 4s what ev ery modern penologist has sub scribed to, as the' great essential ot reform in thl field, which makes up the-greatest needless ex pense in the United States and er ery other country -and the great est heartbreak, for the Innocent often suffer more than the guilty, and every one who either holds property er works contributes di rectly or Indirectly to the great cost. This is the first case in the history of Mexico where a code has been, drafted only after pre vious consideration of the views ot nil social elements qualified te express a profitable opinion. The judges and lawyers, the doctors and educators, and all the men representing science, were con sulted. President Gil -was con sulted at every stage. Full pub licity was given in the press. The president did not wish in any way to coerce or unduly influence pub lic opinion. When the question of elimina tion ot the death penalty came up. President Gil. asked for open de bate in the public forum, "with the result that, by the unanimous acceptance of all elements capable of formlng-nn opinion, the pro gressive measure was approved. It was the product of an intellec tual plebtselte-if the reader can conform his ideas to the anachron ism of an intellectual plebiscite.

Mrs. Wiggins was killed on Sep tember 14 when an anti-Communist mob fired on a truckload of Gastonia mill bands-and sympa thizers en their way to a union meeting."' And a good many peo ple in, North Carolina and else where will say In consequence that Gastonia feels It a crime tor a striker to shoot, but not a crime to shoot a striker. "The Gastonia Gaxette," on the day following the verdict against the strike leaders, boldly wrote: "Let us aB hope that this will be the last time this country will ever hare to undergo such a siege again. It will not be safe for any so-called labor agitator to be caught nosing around here any time soon. The folks here are simply not going to put up with k any longer. That sounds like an invitation to more violence, and the atti tude of the Mayor of Gastonia. after the grand Jury refused to indict any one for killing Mrs. Wiggins, was no more enconrar- lng. He commented cheerfully upon the speed with which the calendar was being cleared. "Is the Wiggins. Case nermanentlT ended?" a reporter asked mim. He urawied nis reply: "Yes unless somebody talks." No one of the gang who attacked the "labor agi Utors Is likely to talk; and the kind et blanket evidence which sufficed to convict the strike lead ers is evidently not adequate in North Carolina to convict anti strike leaders. The attuation Is not one which 1 peace-loving men, can view wltnl satisfaction.- Mr, lva Johnjtoe; who in sis .dispatches, from Qas tenia, gate so vivid picture of the fantastic conrtroom scene, to day, gires another picture of the background ot Gastonia. Guns are as common in Gastonia, ap parently, as automobiles-in New York. Feelings run high; doubt less they run high, too, among Mrs. Wiggins's friends. No com munity is really safe when any considerable group wittiln it feels deeply that justice is denied it. "The Gastonia Gaxette" and the Mayor of Gastonia would, we be lieve, do better by their commun ity if they showed a serious de sire to see equal punishmest for the misdeeds of both sides in their industrial dispute New York Herald-Tribune. GROWTH OF OREGON CITIES That admirable hound for sta tistics the Oregon Voter has seiz ed upon Dean Gilbert's Survey of Municipal Finance and extracted therefrom a highly interesting set of compilations setting out the growth of Oregon cities, which it presents in conjunction with an index of its own based upon school enrollment. Dean Gil bert's indices of growth are value of property, bank deposits, num ber of telephones and postal re ceipts. The Gilbert index covers the period 1919 to 1928. The school enrollment index covers the period 1918-19 to 1927-28. Chief Interest in the presenta tion from a hometown standpoint will be in the comparative growth of Eugene with that of other Ore gon cities ot approximately sim liar class. Starting from a basis ot 100 we find growth in the cit ies In that group thus: Gilbert School index 188 306 239 219 153 144 118 113 106 89 100 137 index . 248 . 319 . 217 . 255 . 15S . 300 . 138 . 153 . 140 . 115 . 125 Eugene Klamath Falls Bend Medford LaGrande- Corvallis Pendleton Marshfield Albany .. Astoria , Baker Salem 201 Thus by the Gilbert Index Eu gene s growth has been exceeded hy that of three other cities, Klamath Falls, Medford and Cor vallis. By the school enrollment Index it has been exceeded by Klamath Falls. Bend and Med ford. By both indices Eugene has grown faster than Salem. By both indices Klamath Falls and Medford have grown faster than Eugene Growth In Portland, the state's metropolis, has failed to keep pace with that ot some of the other cities. Including Eugene. The Gilbert index gives Portland a standing of 186 while the school enrollment gives it but 132. Eugene beats it by either test by considerable margins, borne of the smaller towns, such as Haines, Toledo and Reeds- port, hare outrun both the me tropolis and the cities of the mid die class. Most of the 98 cities and towns Included in the compil ations show some growth during the decade but some few have lost population. Eugene Register. HORSE SHOW PRIZES Portland banks are distributing a good many thousand dollar bills among the poor, rich folks whose fancy.gaited and high stepping horses win awards at the horse show held in connection with the Pacific International Stock Snow. It looks to us like a waste of good money in an undeveloped state like Oregon where there are many other worth-while projects lacking encouragement. But the business of exhibiting fancy horses is an expensive one, even for the rich folks, land stakes must necessarily be I high, if the entry list is to be large enough to guarantee a real show. The horse show isn't entirely wasted effort, either. - It draws to the big stock show thousands ot Portland people who never would attend otherwise, the city folks who don't know a Poland China sow from n guinea pig, for Instance. Portland society turns out en masse for the horse show and it gains some idea, although prob ably a somewhat superficial one, of the triumphs of the livestock breeders that occupy space near the riding pavilion. Thus the management appeals to city and to rural groups and brings rep resentatives of both together. Very likely the benefits of this contact justify the big purses for She horse show.
