! World Achievement
rjUCH is the title for a special edition of the "Christian
O Science Monitor" for Jan. 7th. There are two regular
news sections, the special features being rotogravures, four
sections of them. From far corners of the earth pictures
have come to grace this beautifully printed edition. It is
all in sepia, no multicolored work being attempted. The, edi
tion is largely pictorial too; and that is well because pic
tures tell the store more quickly and more graphically than
type.
What impresses us in thi3 review of achievement of
the world in 1931 is the prominence of engineering. Perhaps
it i Wanste thinirs like tall buildings and bridges and
steamships lend themselves to illustration while subjects of
research like hunting for influenza germs or learning what
tricks the gamma ray can perform are not material for
photography.
- 1931, far from being a year of "stillhaltung", standstill,
was a year of real achievement, as these pictures testify.
We may call the roll:
GREAT BRIDGES: A 1650- ft steel arch bridge over
Sydney harbor, Australia ; .the Kill van Kull bridge, with
longest arch span in the world, connecting Staten island
with Jersey shore; the George Washington bridge across
the Hudson with longest span, 3500 ft., suspension type;
thev St. Johns bridge at Portland over the Willamette with
a clear span of 1200 ft.
HYDRO-ELECTRIC AND IRRIGATION DAMS: Bagnell
dam in Missouri; Dniepr river dam in Russia which will
generate over 800,000 hp.; Westphalia project, one of larg
est in Europe, utilizing water drop of 500 ft.; enlarging the
great dam on the Nile.
BUILDINGS: Empire State building in New York city,
102 stories, 1250 ft. high, tallest structure ever built by
. a ! i " n ?
man; new national liorary Duiiaing in reipmg, t,mna; new
parliament house for northern Ireland; viceregal lodge in
New Delhi. India: modernistic Berlin Broadcasting company
building; Karl Marx Hof in Vienna, housing project where
40,000 may live.
Add to these highway construction, shipbuilding, port
projects, terminals, airplane construction, it becomes in
creasingly evident that modern civilization in large measure
v is built on the work of the engineer.
The section devoted to "Social and Economic Progress"
nlctures the buildinir of a wall, with separate blocks bearing
labels such as "Court Procedure Speeded"; "Status of Work
ers Improved"; "Wickersham Commission Reports"; "Bil
lion Dollar Credit Pool": "Home Loan Credit Pool", indeed
not a very imposing assortment. Some are indefinite ; others
like "Status of Workers Improved", of doubtful validity. The
text however asserts that in China and Mexico definite
progress was made toward protection of labor. 1931 was a
w - . - . ...... - i . .
year ol a vast deal or. tniniung ana laimng ana wrimig
about social and economic progress, but there was real eco
nomic recession all over the world, outside of Russia.
Research progressed apace in 1931. What care men who
browse about in the stellar spaces, who crack open atoms
and compute their densities, who peer through microscopes
at concerous tissues, what care they about volume of trade
and credit balances? So it is reported that during the year
the disintegration of the atom was successfully photo
r graphed at Pasadena ; Orion was found to be three times as
jfar away from the earth as previously believed ; metallurgists

Salem?"
JT. K. Blinkhorn, county dairy
and food inspector: "I don't fa
vor "C" grade milk la Salem. The
reason I don't from our stand
point is that It is a very inferior
milk produced with little super
vision because It is Intended for
factory use rather than home con
sumption. Milk consumed by ln-
vauas and babies should be the
best because they are the most
liable to contract disease."
Mrs. C. S. Russell, housewife:
I don't think so. I think ft shmiM

want to give the children milk
and you want to know what they
are getting."

. En Character
GHARLIE DAWES as president of the reconstruction fi
nance corporation seems far more appropriate than
Charlie Dawes as master of the dove-cote at Geneva. In
fact the only way we could feature him as head of the dis
armament delegation was that it might take a fighting cock
to crack a few heads together and get some action.
t But in the field of big busniess where "damns" and
Shells'" are insignia ,of executive ability (supposedly) Charlie
pawes ought to be in fine feather. He knows how to bluff
and that is what the business man of the present lacks.
In fact he is almost bletffed out; Dawes can talk turkey to
Wall street, is a household god on Laballe street, and the
people on Main street know his language. So if there is
anyone who can cuss or cajole prosperity into parking justl
around the next corner it must be Dawes.
We do not think he. will throw that two billion dollars
around recklessly either. He is cold-blooded banker enough
to call for good security first. He is more apt to kick busi-j
ness in the pants and set it to work than to try coaxing it
along with lollypops and nursing bottles. -
i Dawes will alter business psychology too. None of the!
drooping and sniveling about hard times and depression will
go with him. " He may take some hard blows on the chin.
but before he gets through old man depression will take
the count. r
The country may well give nine raws for Dawes, new
president ot tne Hoover second-aid to business.

Ha wroU: "Near my mcamn.

which th der frequently resort
ed, as well aa the beautiful ringed
species of Columba (nlaeons).
whoso elegant movements when
picking up and licking th salin
particles that were round aroand
tha edge afforded me great
amusement." (What reader can
tell where the camp ot Douglas
was and the saline snrlnr. or
deer lick? It must have been near
the Willamette river, and not far
below the site of Salem.)
W S
Douglas wrote: "I killed sev
eral of the Cervus Leucurus, or
long white tailed deer, as well a
some of the black tailed kind C.
macrotiss." Ho spoke in other
places of the great abundance of
deer then in the Willamette val
ley, and of elk. and of other
animals and birds, some of them
now extinct, including vast flocks
of swans. He found three kinds of
swans.
Ha wrote: "I procured some
curious kinds of Myoxus Mus,
Arctomys, a new species of Canls.
of singular habits, and a genus of
animals which had been hitherto
undescribed." (A commentator
thinks these may have been our
pouch gophers.)
S
Douglas said: "la the extensive
plains, bounded on the west by
the mountainous woody part of
the coast, and on the east by high
mountains (describing the Wil
iamette valley), as also on tha
banks of the River Sandiam (Sau-
tiam), one of tho rapid branches
of the Multnomah (Willamette),
grows an abundance of the Es-
choltzia Californica . . . also Iris
tenaz (flags), Nicotlana multlval
vl (wild tobacco plant), two new
species of Trichostemma (black
sage or pennyroyal), and many
other delightful plants."
This column some months (or
years) ago contained a statement
concerning the wild tobacco
plants found by our pioneers on
the banks of the Santiam river.
Douglas found such plants in oth
er Sections of the Oregon coun
try some of them, ho said, from
needs brought by the Indians
from east of the Rockies and
sown on burned over patches of
soil and pringing up and grow
ing luxuriantly without cultiva
tion. The Indians used the cured
plant for smoking.
V
As to the Escholtzia Californica
(California popples) which Doug
las found In such abundance la
the Willamette valley, especially
along the banks of the Santiam,
as some readers will remember,
this column not long sgo printed
th finding in the same field of
W. D. Breckenrldge. the natural
ist with the Wilkes expedition la
841: U. S. government expedi
tion. That naturalist found Cali
fornia popples on the we3t side ot
the Willamette river, in the pres
ent Polk, Yamhill and Benton
counties. As wa said by the writ
er then, the California poppy Is
a much entitled to be called th
Oregon poppy.
S
Going out from his camp on hi
collecting tours from th aaliae
spring, Douglas must have been
on the banks ot the Santiam riv
er. He traveled from Fort Van
couver In an Indian caaoe. which
ha said gave a hard task in :th
portage at tha falls, and he prob
ably used that means la getting
up a srar as tha mouth of tha
Santiam; and also la navigating
that stream, stopping at conveni
ent points to examina aad collect
specimens. This part of his work
was necessarily dona on toot; la
fact aa walked much; was tha
greatest white tramp la tha Ore
gon couatry la th period before
tha missionaries aad settlers
cam.
Evry day ha- faced dangers,
aad ba barely escaped death
many, maay time. Tha Indians
could aot understand him. They
called aim tha "grass man," and
his work seemed so useless to
thm that they regarded him with
superstitious awe, which he en
couraged, as a matter ot safety.
