The Public Service Commission TTyci i ... - , I "ill luuiicnio mill uvoyuais uu public, service commission has Suffered an amazing other organizations In the care and ing lot of unwarranted abuse. It has been branded as a!treatment of the mentally ill. And tool of the "power trust," as a minion of Wall street, as a conspirator against public interest. Meier proposes to abol ish the commission entirely. Metschan and Bailey supply an implied rebuke when they propose to "strengthen" the com mission. But no one has come forward with a bill of Darticu- i . iars against ine commission, its policies. What crime has committed 7 In what respect has the commission been de relict in its duty? Bald generalities may pass in the heat of a political campaign; but the critical mind will demand some specific charges or complaints against the commis sion before damning thaf body as is now so freely done. The public service commission has carried forward some really constructive work in recent years. Looking over the field here in Oregon the commission observed that vast areas of the state were not served with lines of railroad. Believing that the state's development was being retarded through lack of transportation, it has been active in urg ing and in forcing railroad construction. The public service commission initiated the proceed ings for the building of the cross-state railroad, successfully prosecuted it before the interstate commerce commission, and is now represented by counsel in defending the com mission in federal court. The public service commission intervened in the South ern Pacific-Central Pacific case whereby the interests of this state were protected in the leasing of the Central Pa cific by the Southern Pacific, which was followed by the building of the Natron cut-off. The public service commission awroved and recom mended the building of the Bend for a connection with Klamath Falls The public service commission recommended the ex tension of the Great Northern south from Klamath Falls the mental life will be trans to a connection with the Western Pacific for the erection j formed. of a new traffic to. through Oregon.

In the matter of railroad rates the commission has Ieen very active. It secured substantial reductions on agri cultural tariffs after the depression of 1921. It fought for nd has defended the ten per cent differential in favor of Portland over Seattle on wheat shipments from points south of the Snake river. It has presented cases before the inter state commerce commission for reductions in transcontin ental fruit rates, on hay rates, and on livestock rates, which cases are nruv pending before the interstate commerce com mission. In the matter of power rates, the commission some months ago announced reductions in the power rates charg ed by Pepco, the leading utility muigatea reductions in ngnting rates ior tne same utility. : In the matter of street car fares there was nothing it could; do but nprmit trip inrreasp tn land rate experts themselves to go into effect unless a new franchise could be adopted j shifting some of the burdens from the company to the city.

It has rendered conspicuous service. Its members are men of character and probity. The chairman, Frank J. Mil ler, has spent his life in Oregon and is widely known and universally respected as a man of the highest honor and the highest standards of service. The Statesman does not want to see the public service commission abolished because this paper believes in private ownership under strict state regulation. Portland is no more dominated by the power companies than it is by Meier and Frank, at the present time. We have no animosity toward municipal ownership; and in the case of waterworks have always believed in municipal ownership. But public owner ship on a large scale throws too much temptation in the way of public officials, promotes bureaucracy, slothfulness and extravagance. In the ordinary administration of offices our cities and other units of government are constantly sub jected to graft. Adding utility operation to the function of government simpljc-multiplies the opportunities for graft, spoils of office, and political inefficiency. The Statesman opposes Julius Meier for governor be cause, his platform Is nebulous, is unsound, and if carried out in the abolition of. the public service commission would be a great backward step. Mr. Meier from training and ex perience ought to be well qualified to serve the state as a business administrator. But he chooses to run on a -wierd platform of generalities which will not bear analysis, like this proposal to abolish the public service commission. To abolish the commission and repeal regulatory legislation ef toe- state would be to play directly into the hands of the utility, companies. 4 i - - - Editor-Manager - - Managing Editor ... ... - eitner as to its personnel on the public service commission j Great Northern south from j in the state.

S. Copeland, M. D. No greater affliction can come ; to man than lost of reason. When mental control la lost, direction of ' . the body and its acta is rone. There is j much alarm in the ranks of the medical profes sion today over the steady growth and complexity o f mental' diseas es. The problei 4 of the mentally defective la al ways a serious one. The Ameri can Medical as recent meeting, m eoclatlon at Its took action to brine; about a more scientific handling of these problems. To further scientific in vestigation it was thought desir able to appoint a special commit tee. This will concern itself sole ly with psychiatric services In the criminal courts and prisons. It will cooperate with hospitals and at the same time an effort will be made to promote greater pro gress in the treatment of mental defectives. The efforts to deal Justly and wisely with criminal offenders ar- often handicapped. They fall be cause some lawyers and Judges M5.U do not have the same conception of the factors that lie behind an offense. Through a psychiatric service, if It 13 sensibly conduct ed, something more than mere penal treatment can be given of fenders. A sharper line can be drawn between criminals and those suffering from mental disorders-. By this service society will receive greater protection against this typo of offenders. The mental hygiene problems of today are exceedingly complex. Mental troubles are tar more pre valent than ever before. Life is more complex than it used to be. Many persons have difficulty to adjust themselves to society and to the requirements of living. The health of the body and the health of the mind act and react on each other. If we are to be re ly happy our mental attitude must be health. Many physical disord ers come from perverted ideas. Worrv drains away a large store of nervous energy. Many sorts ofJ mental conditions or attitudes bring about real disease. By sim alv correcting one's attitude of depression, irritability cynicism, ana aissausiacuon wun m general one can bring pnysicai well-beine. Then, of necessity, reeling his thinking wisely.

She lives with an aunt and a snooping girl cousin. Neil i all 4 ight until she spies a swell" Tid ing a horse. Neil chides Ardeth ealously. The next day Ardeth sees a picture of Ken Gleason, the man on the horse, in the roto gravure section and her heart thumps. But Ardeth comes to earth with the usual bickering with Bet about stockings. Jean ette Parker calls at the store where Ardeth works and offers the latter a Job Un the "swell" shop she is starting. Ardeth ac cepts. Neil objects to Ardeta's plans and they have a row. Ar deth meets Ken when he visits the shop. Shortly after, knowing that Jeanettt has left for the day. Ken calls at the shop, feigning that he had planned to drive Jeanette home. Ha asks Ardeth to go Instead. Next day. Ken plans foursome of Ardeth, Jeanette, his friend, Tom Corbett, and him self. Jeanette and Tom are unable to go, so Ken is alone with Ar deth. CHAPTER 10 Across the bay from San Fran cisco the Alameda coastline stretches Itself to the south in a vast salt marsh. An empty, fas cinating country, brooding under eternal silence. The only Inhabit ants are lonely little wooden shacka stuck up on stilts in the mud, used for shooting parties or small wooden arks anchored on the edge-3 of the innumerable sloughs which cut the flats into a grey picture puzzle. Half hidden In the saw-graaa on the edge of one such slough was the houseboat which Ken and Tom Corbett called their "duck shack." Most of the time It lay bleaching alone in the sunny still ness so deserted that gulls and coots and even the wild ducks had come to regard it as part of the landscape. But today tha bird Ufa had fled in panic. Tha mud hens had waded away In scandalized agi tation and seagulls had a know ing air as they circled its roof. The warped little ark had been invaded by a tall laughing fellow and a slim girl in a sport dress. A golden day on the marshes. A day underlaid with a thrilling sense of drama. "Glad you came. Moth?" Her look was his answer. When Ken had told of Jean- ette's absence, desolation unbear able had swept Ardeth. She was like a disappointed child. Her lovely day her beautiful day snatched away at the last min ute! Then came angry rebellion. She'd go with Ken anyway! Sup pose there were but the two of them? People weren't prudish about such things any more! She would go she would! They were defiantly gay com ing over on tha ferry boat, thrill ing to a daring sense of romance. Blue sky blue sky and tha sun gleaming on the man' un covered head. Thera waa a littler) crease in his thick' hair where the hat brim had pressed a crease which would just hold her finger, thought the girl dreamily. Then aha had( given a little startled laugh at the thought and would not tell him why the laughed. This golden day dropped Into her lap, far removed from tha other gray days of the week. Nothing mattered Aunt Stel'a nagging Neil's Jealousy Cecils Parker not -v e n ""tomorrow. which would put tha worldly gulf between them again. Nothing mat tared, while aha was here with Ken on this golden day! Tha thrilling sense of Intimacy deepened --when they left the beat and turned from the city. The country road they followed gave way to a saltcaked track winding through the salt marsh, wide sky wlda flat tha blua car creeping along with Ken and her self. LEAST ONE GOOD FEED $) IMS. Kmt Fnlura ,.(Uon. When they reached the ark they were filled with the wild spirits of children. Ardeth ex claimed over It all the shabby cabin with its cushioned seat rambling around the room. The tiny kitchen, its one window looking over miles of marsh. The warped floor boards of the sun flooded deck and the soft lipping of water as the tide seeped up tha slough. She tied a huge ftour sack dish towel under her armpits and help ed Ken prepare lunch on the rus ty wood stove. From the back of tha car Ken produced a thick beefsteak. A Jar of potato salad. French bread butter cheese. A box of French pastry had been badly Jammed in the trip over, and sent them into gales of laugh ter. It was easy to laugh today. Just the sight of Ken with a difth towel tied about his neck solemnly licking whipped cream from his fingertips was sufficient to move the girl to tender ridi cule. Just the sight of a sooty smudge streaking Ardeth's nose was enough to start Ken's shout ringing over the marshes. They were throbblngly aware of each other's presence. Aware of the empty miles which closed them here together. They com batted their secret excitement with an almost hectie gayety. They burned their fingers and broke plates. They dropped forks and dived for' thera at the same moment so their heads came smartly together. They salted the salad too much and entirely for got to season the steak. Ardeth cut her finger and Ken bound it with a strip of clean dish towel. That moment of close contact, when he held her hand in his own silenced the man's high spirits' and sent the blood surging through his body. They ate lunch on the shady side of the deck overlooking the blue bay. Ken was In hilarious spirits again. He played waiter, hanging a napkin over his arm. and waving Ardeth to her seat wltn an elaborate flourish. "Ham. lamb, ram, sheep or mutton? Name yer animal, leddy! The steak is the piece of resist ance if you bend it we can't take it back!" After luncheon they cleared i the table, stacked the clean plates i back on the kitchen shelves and ! went out again onto the deck. i Ardeth flung herself on a rat tan couch piled with faded cush- ions. Ken perched on the rail and I lit a cigarette. At first they talked easily. Gay inconsequential chatter of the shop of Jeanette Ken told in cidents of his college days. He spoke of Tom Corbett who owned the ark with him. "We roomed together at the university. Tom s a prince or a fellow. I'll bring him in some- time to meet you.

She gave a shaky little laugh. "I should 6ay not! It's their toss " And suddenly she could not go on. Silence growing between them. Spreading. The wide sunflooded country was tremulous with ex pectancy. The air between them ached with unspoken words. She felt the weight of Ken's gaze, but found, of a sudden that she could not life her lashes. Her heart set up a rapid pounding. Ken had slipped from the rail. He came over seated himself beside her on the couch. Then his arms were about her his ardent face poised over her own. "Oh . . . no!" Her own voice in an- unconvincing little gasp Just before his lips crushed down on her own in a kiss which seem ed to draw her heart between her lips.

A mm on and family. o i luaBoanced that ho womld conduct i RITS for By R. J. HENDRICKS Two biggest things: m m Kr.orf in the less Mile, kj- Chas. L. Mc- TMarr talked to the members of the Salem Chamber of Commerce and visitors at the luncheon hour on Monday. - . The a u i t, matter of fact way in which Oregon'a senior senator greet R. J. Hendricki ed his fellow townsmen and old friends prob ably made some of them think they were listening to a neighbor ly and intimate talk rather than having related to them what was in the nature of a report of pro gress on three of the biggest things now before the people of Salem, those of the Willamette valley as a whole, and the popula tion of the entire state. S Senator McNary talked of the proposed canalization of the Wil lamette river; that Is, its im provement to the point of prepar ing the stream for a boating and barging stage the year through giving still water at all seasons all the way up to Salem, thence to Albany and Corvallls and Eu gene, and perhaps a short dis tance beyond. Senator McNary through his committeeships and his long experience in congress is in a place of authority and power at Washington, and, hav ing put his hand to the plow, there is no turning back. V He told his hearers that It is as natural and necessary that tha Willamette river should be Im proved and made navigable the whole 12 months as it waa to so improve the Ohio river at gov ernment expense. Of course it is. The matter has been allowed to lag far too long, and must and will be prosecuted to a finish; to a time when we will see the heavy freight of this valley car ried by water putting la effect a possible wharf site on both banks all the way up, connecting with all the world's deep sea ports by water borne traffic; with only a slight charge for transfer ring cargoes in the harbor of Portland to ocean going vessels. ". U m More than this, the same pro cess of improvement will control the flood waters of the river In times of winter and spring fresh ets. Still more, it will aid in the harnessing of the river and Its tributaries for hydro-electric power. And still further, it will help the movement for providing irrigation In the dry months for every thirsty acre of the Willam ette valley. The same will be true as to the Columbia and its tributaries. It will make that second greatest river in the United States navi gable; it will render it easy to be harnessed for power and light; it will help put its flow onto the lands that need it for irrigation, and it will control its flood sea sons. "No drop of water should be allowed to run idly to tha sea," said Senator McNary, "without contributing to the economic nec essities 'of the people." These projected improvements, for which bills are pending, intro duced by Senator McNary, are properly in the province of the congress of the United States. Be cause the Columbia is an inter state stream. And because the Willamette is a navigable river, or can with a comparatively low cost be made navigable the year through. " m S Senator McNary also told his neighbors and friends about his bill, introduced on the suggestion of CoL Carle Abrams, secretary of the state board of control, and at the behest of the members of that board, for setting aside for the use of the state forest lands, so as to provide a fund, perhaps $30,000,000 to tSO, 000, 000 to build capltol buildings on spa cious grounds provided here in Salem for the purpose after the manner of' the magnificent grounds and buildings of the state of Washington at Olympta; and providing Oregon with the best facilities in the west for the transaction of its commonwealth activities. S Senator McNary talked of this almost as "fait accompli." as' the French call a thine- accomnllshed. He said his bill calls for no un reasonable thing, for the United States owns In its forest reserves. Indian reservations and other public lands 62 per cent of all the area of. Oregon. Therefore it would be "nothing more than fair that the parent government should allow the government of this etate a basis of income suffi cient to properly house, for all time, Its various activities as a commonwealth business. Senator McNary said he believed the mat ter may oe lorwaroed to a suc cessful conclusion. s s s That ahould have been enough to send all the Individuals of the large crowd of listeners on Mon day on their ways with hopeful nearts, ror saiem and her future. for the Willamette vallety and its coming great development, for tha state of Oregon as ultimately one of the brightest Stars tn the galaxy of the union. Is ". The canalization of the Willam ette river will give a higher sell ing value to every ton of freight produced by tha industries on the land and every bale and bundle and crate aad box and nackara fashioned in our factories large ana smaii tn our CKlea and towns a higher value, because it win aave something on every article ef the whole volume on freights on the ehargaa that must be met in getting things from produ cera to consumers. e T wiutte valley wiU not fill fast with the eoming 10,000, W and more people who will eventually, hare homes and em ployment within Its borders, until there ia available water for irri- - I Minn hr of all the lands need ing such artificial rain in the dry tha. And there will be no call for so complete a development until tha river Is canalized and controlled in order to make it available the year through for carrying the raw and processed and manufactured pro ducts of the land. River Im provement Is therefore the pri mary need. S Railways, roadways, airways and waterways these are all nat ural and necessary arteries of commerce. But the primary and chief one is waterways. The other three, so far as the best minds of the world can now see, will al ways be more expensive in con struction, maintenance and oper ation than is necessary in the case of water borne transporta tion. The charges wil therefore be the smallest., and the competi tion is the most open. S S There are many great develop ments in various lines ahead for the Willamette valey. But every ! one of thein will be hastened and made more vital and stable and enduring by the boat and barge lines that will follow the provid ing of still water in the Willam ette river throughout its course. m That is fundamental, and will likely always be, to the end of the chapter. Not a stone should be left unturned in making smooth the road to its accomplishment. L OF I Willl'S NEW YORK. Sept.' 30 (AP) The conference of dry organi zations of New York state held a three-hour secret meeting Monday at which plans were formnlated for the support of Professor Rob ert P.
