Per The Safety ('.Valve- - LttUrs from r SUtenuui Beadenf Tax Selling Bad Business AFTER all it's a cheap sort of patriot who deliberately sells his stocks or bonds in order to take advantage of "lows" and establish losses to cut down their income tax. It s rather shabby we think, even though it is entirely legitimate. If a person wants to sell for an honest reason, then he is fcis 4ified In selling, but a sale just to wash out income with the '" expectations of replacing the security at the end of the re quired three months doesn't stand as a mark of good citizen ship. , . . , iThe practice is bad for the country because it deprives the 5 government of needed revenue, and because it artifi cially depresses prices. For instance this month prices have sagged under continuous pounding. Part of it, the most of it no doubt, was due to liquidation-which was more or less nec essitous, but a lot was due to selling to establish income loss es. This gives a false appearance to quotations and further depresses sentiment and increases gloom. Some day congress may change the law and allow no deduction for capital losses. If they did it and made it retro active what a fine howl there would be. We repeat, it's pret ty shabby treatment of the country in which a fellow has prospered for him to try to short change Uncle Sam by this manipulated income loss through year-end selling. Teachers Meet Again THERE is always a news gap between Christmas and New Year's and always it is filled with the reports of the new discoveries and new guesses of the scientists and professors. Various scientific and educational bodies are meeting in this week; and reporters always count on getting something weird and extreme from some profs who are anxious to bust into print. This year the missing link was found for the 'steenth time. 1 . Our own state teacher's association which is pretty safe to let stand without hitching comes forward with approval of the notion to have a department of education in the pres ident's cabinet. The reasons for this are largely bogus, and so far congress has refused to create the department and the expense which would go along with it. It is a wonderful thing, however, to have this annual airing of ideas. The escape affords relief to the chaps who are going around with" these burdens on their brain. Then too some of them do work out to be meritorious. We have to have the teachers, and we can put up with their chimeras which usually perish with the January freeze. Fewer Cars, More Deaths THE estimates indicate that there are 600,000 fewer cars in operation this year than a year ago. In spite of this there has been an increase m auto fatalities from 32,C00 in 1930 to 34,000 in 1931. This indicates but one thing, and that is that the people are driving more carelessly. Increased speed may be a factor,1 but since a great many of the acci dents occur in cities where cars operate at only nominal rates of speed, the cause may more accurately be attributed to .carelessness. This means carelessness of drivers and careless ness of pedestrians as well. In many, many cases the driver is innocent of blame because some one blindly rushed in front of his car and the driver had no chance to stop. It is indeed regrettable that although there have been vigorous and continuous campaigns for safety, and although the public is well educated on the hazards of driving and of walking, the deaths continue to increase. What are the peo ple going to do about it? We don't know; but Gus Hixson still has some insurance that helps out if a person does get hit. Amity, Oregon, Dee. J 7, 19X1. To The Statesman t I hare noticed recently three or four different articles deaoane lns the Christmas card custom an silly, wasteful, and more te that effect. In my on ease, and I am one of thousands who do the same. I am sure, the sending- and receiv ing of Christmas free tin cards is a joy and a pleasure. There are quite a number of old friends whom I hare not seen for years. The greetings I send to them each Christmas are sincere and they carry the massage that I have net forgotten old friendships. The cards I receive are a cheerful re minder that those friends hav a kindly thot of me in their Christ mas time. Many such friends would be lost to me if there were not this pleasant, custom of greet-- ins distant friends at the Christ maa tide. It seems to me that this custom in common with many other good things is precious when used even though it may be worthless when abused. I believe an article on the Christmas card custom should ad vise on the wise use of it instead of condemning it because there has been some abuse of it. Yours truly, GRACE PATTY.

The eommunitv Christmas nrn. gram at the Ankeny granere hall was attended by about 200 people. The two hour program was put on by the Sidner and Talhnt schools, and consisted of well ar ranged plays, sonars and recrea tion. A huge ta-ee beautifully dec orated was In the front part of the hall. After the Droram treats were passed. Mr. and Mrs. Jake Gilmour and Mr. and Mrs. William Widprt(hr were appointed as servine com- muittee for the next regular club meeting. Mr. and Mrs. E. J. Freeman and small son Ernest and Mrs. L. M. Harding spent Christmas In Portland with Mrs. Freeman's brother, R. M. Harding and family. Mr. and Mrs. Cecil Dotv and daughters, Mrs. Ed Jacobson. Doris Doty and Ed Jacobson of Salem were holiday guests of Mrs. Helen Doty and son Llndsey. miss tiaa tteese of Borinz in spenaingtne vacation with her aunt, Mrs. David Jacobson. In the sixties, during the progress of the civil war, local people, con nected with the Sanitary Commis sion, which was the Red Cross of the day, fitted up a hall on the second floor of the Moores block, that stood where the TJ. S. Nation al bank now stands, in which to give theatricals, to raise money for hospital and other supplies for the wounded soldiers on the Union side. A succession of entertain ments followed. S S Joseph A- Baker, Salem's old est citizen ln point of continuous residence here, was one of the act ors. He remembers now that he was a "bum" actor. "Blackeyed Susan" was one of the plays; he says, rather a heavy one for un tried talent. But it was played to a capacity house, with even stand ing room all taken. Joe says that the next day. Hoc. I. R. Moores, prominent citizen and leading merchant, one of the owners of the building, told him he stuck it out and saw it through though he added that he woultfpot have so martyred himself for any other cause but he was glad he attend ed and paid his dollar admission; he would do almost anything to help the boys risking their lives and dying for their country! There was no other price it was always a dollar, and no free pass es, either, at that theatre, and the sum raised was a large one. m Mr. Baker remembers the cir cumstances of the construction of Reed's opera house. C. A. Reed was a leading spiritualist. The shades of the departed had more authority and influence in the early days of that movement than now. Reed was Instructed by the spirit of a friend or relative "en the other side" to build an opera house. If there were specifications mentioned with the admonition, they must have been elaborate, for the time and place: tor it was a gigantic undertaking for the per iod. But Mr. Reed went through with it. with some outside "mater ial" aid. Result, what is now the Miller store building, which rep resents well up to a $100,000 (or more) investment at present val ues, besides the high priced ground on which it stands. That was before concrete was used and the foundation was stone and brick. Soon after E. P. McCornack bought the property, he "jacked up" the building and raised it a little, and put a concrete founda tion under it. This was a novel proceeding looked like pouring mud into the forms, and seeing the mud harden into matter stronger and more enduring than granite; far more enduring where there is a wearing surface. ' There was another circus loca tion of the early days, for at least one season. It was on the corner where now stands the First Na tional bank bulldinr Balem'a or of the Rockwell bit, located his circus there, showing among other attractions tha performances of the beautiful horse Mazeppa, trained by him. That circus, with Mazeppa. went down with the ill- fated steamship Pacific, on its way to san Francisco. ow reverting to the Grand opera house. It was (and is) in the Odd Fellows' temple, erected in 1900. The first lessee was John F. Cordray, long prominent In Portland and other theatre his tory. His Salem manager was J. L. Lamblrth. The opening perform ances were Friday night, Nov. 30, and matinee and evening of Dee. 1. 1900, by the Jules Grau com pany, in El Capltan, Chimes of Normandy and Little Typhoon, re spectively. There was a chorus and an orchestra, and a car load of scenery. The prices were 50 and 75 cents and $1 for evenings, and 75 down to 25 cents for matinee seats. There were crowded houses at all three performances. Tues day, Dec. 4, Cordray presented a company in "My Friend from In dia," with vaudeville acts, at reg ular evening prices. S After a few years, Cordray dropped out of the picture ln Sa lem, and there have been many changes In the Grand ownership and management since. At first, he planned to calljt the Temple Grand theatre, and this was changed only a few days before the opening. A big Italian band was at the Salem armory on the evenings of the opening of the Grand, with good houses. It was heralded that Salem had become a "good show town," from a there tofore reputedly poor one. The next Salem theatre was The Vaudette, and It was tho first moving picture house, opening in 1906, ln the then new building of David F. Wagper, Court street near Liberty, next to the Steus loff market. Moving pictures were then just coming in, after the "nlckelodlons," and they were poor, compared with the present silver screen productions. The In ventors had not eliminated the shimmering that was hard on the eyes of the audience. But the price was universally 5 cents, and the seats (they were chairs) were generally full, and the proprietor and manager, who was C. W. Mott, made good money. He had no accessories but a piano, and hia wife took in the money, and he did the rest of the work. He sold out to Jack Cooper, who had start ed the Mascot movie, and went to Hood River. This was around 1909, when T. G. Bligh came to Salem and opened the Star thea tre, where the Pomeroy A Keene jewelry store is now, on the north side of State, near Liberty. Mr. Bligh soon took over the Klinger TWO DIE IN TRAIN EXPLOSION o I o .

And knotted in his wet scarf was the rose of Adela. Silently Radcliffe watched him. The young Mexican seemed a very gallant figure there in the evening sunlight, his thick hair tossed, shirt open, sitting his horse as if a very part of the animaL And. catching Ted's glance, Don Bob whispered: "An untamed centaur of the desert. But see his eyes as he looks up at Adela." They were the eyes of a loyal dog. a lover's eyes, too, but in their glance was something of the wikiness of an untamed and untamable thing. Leaning over the railing. Adela extended her hand, and Jito raised it to his lips. "A los pies de tu." He murmured the old courtly Spanish phrase, and his voice was the voice of one speaking to some holy being. A little throb of paio caught Rad cliffe as he watched. Children of the desert, those two, sharing a world where he yet walked an alien. Then he smiled and, reaching down, grasped Jito's hand. "Well done," he said. "You are a true brother of the North Wind." Jito's delighted smile grew broad er. "A thousand Jhanki to the big Americano." He felt the strength of Radcliffe's grasp and nodded in approval as he sat hU horse carelessly, while about him clustered his vaqueros. Slowly Jito's own huge '.fingers tightened and Radcliffe tried to straighten, but the Mexican's hand held his own now with a steel clasp. Again Jito's eyes were gleaming. "Men say," he smiled lazily up, "that the big Americano is a great wrestler, that he has a hug like the mountain grizzly. It would be good sometime to see which of us should first taste the desert's dust in such a contest." Ted felt the girl's eyes upon him. He forced his lips to smile. "When ever you like, Jito mio," he replied easdy. "Bueno. Let it be now, then. Let us see if there is one on the border stronger than Jito." Morales interposed with a frown. "Silence. This gentleman is our guest" He turned to Ted. "Jito has the manners of a goat Success to him is like strong drink. You will forgive him?" Again Jito smiled. "But surely so strong a man must be glad to test his strength." Ted was neither looking at Mor ales nor listening to the other's words. That iron grip from below was pulling him still lower over the rail. Some answering spark kindled mm Radcliffe, darting in, caught Jito, already off balance, and with a quick thrust and jerk, threw him sprawling. within him. It was as if two naked souls had recognized beyond all un certainty the presence of an enemy. Suddenly hot blood surged to his head as he stood there looking down at the Mexican's challenging eyes. Placing his free hand on the rail, he vaulted quickly over and stood be side Jito's horse. Then without ef fort, ke reached up. wound his arm about the Mexican's waist and pulled him slowly from the saddle. They stood face to face now, in the center of that crowded, hushed circle, directly beneath the little, group in the stand. Alert, poised, holding each other's eyes, still smil ing warily. As the Mexican stepped back, Ted threw his coat aside. "Ready T he asked. Jito raised his black eyes. "St, al ways ready." They swung together with a thud of straining flesh, bent heads pressed down against each other's shoulder, sinewy arms moving slowly up and down, seeking some point of weak ness. Like great statues they bulked against the sunset, tense, waiting, almost motionless. Without warning Jito lunged, throwing the weight of his body against Radcliffe, and circling his waist with both arms; lifted his ad versary bodily into the air. Ted's own arms locked about the Mexi can's neck, and bis muscles grew into steel bands as he forced all his strength into that punishing, killing neck-hold. The cords on Jito's throat stood out, his breath whistled Mercilessly the hold tightened as Ted slipped his right hand forward, locking his arms together. Like a cat Jito jerked backward, turning; as he fell, striving to end that killing hold, hoping to drive Ted's body into the earth beneath him. As they swayed backward Rad cliffe, releasing the Mexican, leaped aside, then, darting in caught Jito, already off balance, and with a quick thrust and a jerk, threw him sprawl ing on his back A clean falL From Morales' s herdsmen came u hiss of dismayed surprise as they saw their chieftain in the dust Ted stepped forward ana, grasp ing Jito's hand, raised htm to his feet For a moment the young Mexican looked uncertainly at his antagonist Then he laughed and felt tenderly his twisted neck, "By the cross, yon are a strong c&an, senor. No one else' In all Mexico could do that And, yet even that it was a trick, it was not strength." His dark eyes again appraised him. "Yes, sometime it would be interesting to lock as both' in the same room and see which of us would unlock the door. That would be worth while, eh, amigo mio?" Radcliffe turned away. "It mighl have possibilities, Jito. Sometime when we're not too busy. But not tonight" Like truant schoolboys, both men watched Adela and Don Bob ap proach. Something sparkled in tht ghTs eyes that might have been anger or amusement Don Bob was trying not to smile. "I am sure my uncle's peons thank you for a pleasant afternoon," came the quiet voice of Adela. "Are there any other little games you and Jito would like to play before we go?" Jito looked once into the girl's eye Si then turned like a beaten dog. Bob's traile broadened. Ted gazed down at his rumpled, desert-stained clothes, and suddenly it came over him that he had played the part of a fool before this calm-eyed girL His face flushed and he looked for his fellow culprit, but Jito had disap peared. Ruefully Ted picked up his coat "I'm sorry. I'm whatever kind of imbecile you want to call me, but please don't slay me outright" In silence they walked toward the roadster and once, looking quickly up, Ted surprised the faintest smile on the girl's face. "Thank God for that." he said. "I've been afraid you were thinking of cutting ane to five dances tonight" She shook her head. "I shouldn't dare. Instead 111 probably have to dance at! evening with you rather than trust yon for a minute out of my sight You might be overcome with desire to pitch quoits with the stable boy or " "Or challenge the tenor drummer to six fast rounds," suggested Ted. Then he added: "Really, I'm sorry. It all came so suddenly. He was so confident and so sure And the next minute we were at it. and now I'm all sackcloth and ashes." .T fee voatinaeH Grand of Fred Merrill, of bicycle racing and roadhouse fame, west of the Mascott of Cooper and Bligh also bought the Mascot from Cooper. He had started the Star theatre ln Woodburn In 1S0S. m S S In the mean time, P. H.
