Five ta Four Decisions IN times past radicals hive denounced the "autocracy" of the supreme court where the will of one man might de clare legislation -unconstitutional. Occasional 5 to 4 decisions were pointed to as proof that the power of . the court should be shorn. Now that the balance of the court has turned 4 to 5, we may expect the progressives now to cry out ; A Daniel, a Daniel come to judgment." That it should be Chief Justice Hughes who would join those long in dissent to i give them a majority must confound those Senatorial con spirators who sought to defeat his appointment. ; For years decisions read: "Holmes, J.,Brandeis, J-, and Stone, J., dissenting.. Now on very critical cases, Hughes, chief justice, has joined this group, and Owen Roberts, new appointee, has concurred to make a majority. This was the division on the Indiana chain store tax case. It is the divi sion on the Minnesota gag law case now; declared uncon stitutional. On the citizenship cases of Douglas Macintosh and Marie A. Bland, Roberts switched, joining with the, old guard, Sutherland, Van Devanter, McReynoIds and Butler to deny them citizenship. The dissenting opinion -by the chief justice was sharply critical of the majority reasoning. The chief justice likewise wrote the prevailing opinion, nullifying a conviction under the California red flag law, upholding free speech. ' I This change in the complexion of the court is "of pro found significance. "There is no ground for fear that Chief Justice Hughes nor yet his liberal colleagues are going to abandon the constitution as the bulwark of our liberties. On the contrary there is ground for hope j that their more liberal viewpoint may jnake that instrument increasingly effective as a tool ta preserve liberty and maintain justice in the complex life of this twentieth century. The Price of Fear THE coupon rate of on the forthcoming issue of $800,000,000 in government bonds represents not only the credit rating of the United States but the price of fear. So timid is capital in the present juncture that U. S, bonds with a 15-18 year maturity and an. extremely low interest rate will probably be oversubscribed. Fear rules the business world. The securities of the strongest industries are being dumped overboard in a cold chill of unreasoning fear. The same mob psychology which pyramided prices to foolish heights in 1929 now depresses them to sub-panic levels. Those who snapped at U. S. Steel at over 250 now kick it down the ladder below 90. And government bonds sell on a 3Ys basis! " ' I Why -must we act, in mass formation? The frenzied competition of buying and the frenzied competition of sell ing work our ruin both ways. The cause which makes such a low yield even on the finest security in the world reflects no credit upon the business intelligence of the American people. For if the industries which pay the taxes are all going to pot, what are the government bonds going to be worth ? These bonds of course are going to be good, and so are the major industries and utilities which are the. real . security back of the bonds. j The Minnesota Case- THE supreme court's decision invalidating the Minnesota gag law is a great victory for the freedom of the press. y The Minnesota law gave courts the power to suppress a pub ' lication before its issues were printed under color of at tempt to suppress publication of matter that might be libel ous. Under this law the "Saturday Press"! was actually sup pressed. This was an obscure weekly, sort of a "scandal sheet," but newspaper editors saw in this case a grave men ace to their liberty of publication. Giving a court power to muzzle papers before they were printed meant that consti tutional guarantees of the bill of rights were in jeopardy. - Led by Col. R. R. McCormick of the Chicago Tribune, this case was carried on appeal to the highest court in the land and the plea of the editors was sustained.! ! Justice Hughes termed the law a censorship and ruled the public had sufficient protection under the libel laws. Publishers are liable under the very stringent laws for civil and criminal libel for any abuse of their exercise of freedom of speech. By a very narrow margin of 5 to 4 the freedom of the press is preserved against the threat of the Minne sota, gag law. ; - ' --'-'.;.; . i A Eugene man says the .present bee laws aren't much good.

H " -.-.-j - Food and Health By C. C DAUER, M.D. i " Marion Connyt Health Dept. About one hundred: years ago there was a book published in which the author stated: "It has - always puszled me exceedingly to account f o r good eating o often made the subject of vnlgar and - ir reverent Jest ing. A matter of so much Im portance to all as a support of life by deli cious nour ishment ought, one should think, to be sr. a o. Ptw . treated with some seriousness and gravity." Within recent years foods hare received much serious attention from the standpoint of health. A great part of this has been due to the fact that it has been found that children who are carefully supervised as to their diets ap pear to be in a better state of health. Then too many disorders of the human body are greatly benefitted by a more scientific diet, and among these disorders are to be found: diabetes, gastric ulcers, anemia, scurry., pellagra. Blight's disease, as well aa oth ers. . . ." If a specific diet Is necessary for treatment of many diseases it would seem as though many peo ple would be in much better health generally if they paid more attention to their diet from day to day. An excess of rich foods one day and starvation for one or more days following- to overcome a feeling of stuffing Is without, any reason whatever. A decade or so ago all football teams had a training table dur ing the football season; but now this ia largely out of date and Justly so. What Is good for a boy during the- football season is good for him the year around. More of us would feel much better If we followed the example of many of our famous athletes and more particularly certain prise fighters who keep constantly In trim. This Is done partly by eating only those foods that are beneficial all the time.' Naturally each person must suit their dietary to their own way of living. The laborer needs more food than the man with an office position. The growing, boy needs more food than his less ac tive sister. One need not look long without finding all kinds of literature that will be helpful In planning diets that are sensible and healthful. The magazines of the. better type have home economics secUons, books can be secured In the li braries, and many commercial or ganizations offer cooking and home economics classes as a means of advertising, so that one need not be Ignorant of the ways of providing proper foods.

(Continuing from yesterday:) Mrs. Odetl in her little book re printed the order of exercises In the farewell meeting of the mis sionary family for Oregon in the Green street church. New York Thursday evening Oct, t. The names of those going on the Journey were read, and they were Introduced to the meeting; there were addressee from the mission aries, a charge by Rev. Nathan Bangs, corresponding secretary of the missionary society of the Methodist church, a principal ad dress by Rev. Robert Adler of London, etc. ii e Thus the sailing was on the fol lowing Thursday. The Lausanne, the Mayflower of the Pacific, took the "greatest exodus (of missionaries) ever sailing from an eastern port to any coast.' The charter members of the First Methodist church of Salem were given yesterday; 12 in all. . , Rev. David Leslie was the first pastor. Mrs. Odell wrote: "The pastors as nearly as can be given have been: in .1842, Gustavus Hines, pastor of the church and superintendent of the mission school; in 1843, Mr. Leslie, with the care of all the societies In the Willamette valley, again assum ed the pastorate and probably re tained it until 1847. In that year Methodism was greatly enriched by the accession of Reverends Wm. S. Roberts and J. H. Wil bur, the former of whom came out as superintendent of the mis sion to relieve Mr. Gary, who soon after left Oregon. and distribution T The useless ex pense saved could go to the pro ducers and the price level would be reduced to the minimum to the great benefit of the producers and to those who assist In production. This of course would cut out many useless -distributors but it would furnish them a better Job In the easier, more rapid and more equitable method of production with modern publicly-owned ma chinery. In other words, when we are civilized to the point of throw- Ling into the scrap-heap our costly. wasteful methods of production and distribution and the workers learn how to govern themselves and produce things for their own use, then the wages will be as high as the social cost of produc tion and prices will be the same Wages and prices will then be "on the level," the economic problem will be solved, and our govern ment will be of the people, by the people and for the people.

Har rington in 1823. j m "Religious services were first held tn the chapel of the Oregon Institute. This church, being at first the only church in Salem, bad attracted to Its service nearly all the worshiping population of the vicinity. The congregations became too large for thai chapel and a new place; of worship was needed. I j V m , "Under the direction of Rev. A. F. Waller, the erection of a church was commenced, and com pleted at a cost: of upwards of 88000. Ministers and laymen fol lowing the example-of Mr. Wal ler gave money and' toll to the edifice. It was dedicated to God, and was occupied as a place of worship for nearly 28 years. It has since served; worldly pur poses. Some of the faithful still heave a sigh of ! regret over its desecration. It ought never to have been a shrine tor unholy rites and . heathenish ceremonies. (It finally became a laundry; but theretofore had been put to sev eral desecrating uses, as Indica ted.) ! - "During these 2 S years the membership - of the church was greatly enlarged, and although the house was commodious the usual congregations were too large to be comfortably seated. A larger house was needed. There were, however, some conservative men in the church who thought it would be wiser to build modest churches in different quarters of the town, and thereby divide the congregation. . Committees were appointed to select sites and re port plans. A small house of wor ship was erected at south Salem, but the north and east Quarters of the city had not attained such enviable distinction, when, at an annual conference, held in Sa lem in "1868, the: plan for build ing one large central church was matured. , V V V '. "Mr. Hinee-in speaking of this church two years jppevious to this time says: "Under! the pastorate of Dr. Whyte-lt has enrolled a membership of over 200 and a Sabbath school varying from 309 to 400 members. It owns a prop erty consisting of a house of wor ship and lot valued at 210,000, and a parsonage property, the re sult of a donation of the mission ary society of the Methodist Epis copal church, in 1844, through their agent. Rev. George Gary, worth 85000. Such was the out look and financial condition of the church at this time. a H "Chaplain McCabe, the great ehurch builder,: was present, at this conference. He saw at a glance the advantage of the plan. Bishop Ames the presiding offi cer gave his Influence in favor of ; it. To the eloquent and forcible appeals of these: gentlemen, sec onded by Reverends A. V.- Wal ler and C'C. Stratton, there could be but one response. The work was undertaken." "W . Quoting from the 1 seventh chapter: 'The enthusiasm which inspired the movers in this work! was due in part to the existing state of affairs. The country was prosperous. The advent of rail way travel portended aa inflax of ! wealth and population. Salem was a central -point the capital City ...

MAKE f Pretty Mary Lou Thurston pre tends she la Delight Harford to help Trovers Lorrlmer, " shell shocked son of the wealthy Mar garet Lorrlmer, regain his health as Travers had mistaken Mary Lou for Delight, whom he Is sup posed to have married In Eng land. No trace can be found of Delight. Travers agrees to start all over with friendship. Months ot t happy companionship follow with Travers more in lore with Delight than ever. At Christmas he presents Mary Lou with a sap phire ring, referring to her not wearing the "seal" ring. This leads Mary Lou to believe that he really married Delight, using a seal ring. Mary Lou loves Travers and finds deception hard. ' CHAPTER XXXL ' "It's all been the best possible thing that could have happened to . him, Mathews told her., "you and your healthy, normal In terest in life, the routine he has followed, through you, his en counter with McEwan. He's won a lot of victories over himself, and we have to give him credit tor them. To a sound person nerves seem something to be dis missed with a gesture ot con tempt or a Joke, as something which really does not exist save in the imagination. 'But they are perfectly real and play wretched tricks on their miserable owners. Nerve-ridden people suffer incre dibly and with reality. Mary Lou had an opportunity to observe the truth of this with in a few months. : The winter bad passed - with amatlnr rapidity. There was al ways plenty to do in Westwood. Jenny Wynne had become Mary Lou's close friend the first really intimate friend she had ever had of her own age.. They were together a great deal and, for the first time in sevral years. Jenny had been weaned away from her Idle racing to and fro for no good purpose and no par ticular reason. She had even re fused to accompany her parents to Palm Beach for the entire sea son, promising them vaguely to run aown ror a week or so later" and so, after a conference with Mrs. Lorrlmer, she had moved over to. Westwood. with bag and baggage, while the Wynnes were way. - Drnuor Coma True This was nice tor Larry, who caught the spirit ot the times, and it must keep pace with the devel opments. A subscription paper was put In circulation. The quick response was 118,000, some sub scribing zqqo at once .... It was the intention of the builders that the ehurch should cost only tne moaest sum of SZO.OOO. - "In these flush times the building began. Rer. J. H. Wil bur . . . was placed at the head of affairs. A lot was purchased at 84000 and building material con tracted for. Mr. Wilbur had not progressed much farther in the work when he was called to an other field of labor. Mr. Nlcker son assumed the pastorate, and Father Waller, as he was famil iarly" called, -was made financial agent. There was a condition la the title to the church property that the lot should be nsed sole ly for the M. E. church building. To avoid conflict the old church was moved to the lot purchased by Mr. Wilbur, that the new church might be . erected on its present site. "Mr.' Walter entered upon the work with characteristic energy. It was pushed forward at great cost. Workmen demanded exor bitant wages. Brick layers re ceived 86 and 17 per diem, and other laborers received propor tionately high wages. As much of the 318,000 subscription as could be collected had been absorbed in the building : material. Hence it became necessary to borrow mon ey to pay the workmen. The work was prosecuted rigorously through the summer; the walls being raised to the eaves and the roof put on, . leaving the gables open, before the , rainv season had come. !. , (Continued tomorrow.)

But she couldn't stay, once the trnth was known. And -when was he to be told the truth?. She murmured something1 of this and Mrs. Lorrl mer looked at her affectionately. "Not yet," she said. "Dr. Ma thews thinks; now that we've come so far we mustn't risk los ing gtound. j ii The Right to Lore But Mary Lou wondered how much! more she could endure of his nearness 'and his unspoken wooing, his mute plea for re sponse. She was getting a little thin, losing some of her bright color and sleeping rather badly. It was very difficult when every thing in her, every nerve and fi ber, called out. to surrender, to snatch at happiness If only for an hour, to tell him she did lore him and to feel his arms about her and then, if need be. to run away, where he could never find her, to fling the fact Of her deception In her fiice. ., ij Lorrlmer consented easily to the abort i holiday.

Their lovely, big house on Lake Worth was open for , the three who arrived there one February morning. Mary Loo had come armed or ar mored with new frocks of the fra gile, pastel evening and after noon sort and the; gay-sweatered sport kind, for which Mrs. Lorrl mer had wildly shopped a few days before they left. .. She was instantly popular with the Wynnes' many friends, and had a perfectly wonderful time dancing, and tea, sailing and mo toring, i fishing and swimming. She wished the two weeks could last forever, despite Jenny's fid geting; for Jenny's heart was back in town. But Larry took no chances ot being forgotten. Wires reached his Jenny every day. and absurd letters scrawled with a taick blue pencil on yellow, copy paper. He was forever warning her. "Beware the Idle rich, of the male - and susceptible variety," Larry wired. "They are up to ne good. Remember I am waiting, poor but dishonest, for your re turn." Lorrlmer was glad to be one more in the . Sunshine. He golfed, played tennis and swam. But he was disappointed, in that he nev er seemed to be alone with Mary Lou. She attracted young people In amazing and light hearted number. And so he complained to her, one night, when a moon rode silver over the lake, and they were coming back in the Wynnes' fast boat from a houseboat party. "I never see you alone. i "Oh, yes you do, Lorryl" J "When?" he inquired. I ! "We golfed alone this morn ing," she said. "With about 800 other people, not including caddies," : he re minded her. "Delight, are you purposely avoiding being- alone with me?" i 1 She did not answer,-and the si lence grew very oppressive, and then was relieved and glad whoa Jenny sat down beside her and interrupted it with a huge sign. "Golly, rm half dead. This so cialjife will kill me. I'll be glad to get back to town." "Town?" asked Mary Lou. "Don't be simple, darling." was Jenny's reply." Bad News Jenny and some of her friends had taken several flights in the commercial seaplanes on Lake Worth. Mary Lou had wanted te go, too. but when she mentioned it, Lorrlmer'a distress was so ev ident that she relinquished : the opportunity. "Please," he begged, "I don't ask much of you. Delight, but I can't endure to have you go" "You come with me." she nrred on aa Impulse. He went quite white. "I can't," he told her. low, "Think me a coward If you wish, but I can't. It's . It's beyond me." - So she did not go or plan to go until the telegram came from Doctor Mathews.' .
