New Views conversations classified into business, social, family, love- making, political and miscellaneous. But the wires are silent and the operators have too much to do to eavesdrop on the conversations of their patrons, so there is no chance to get such a segregation. So far as general conversation is concerned the depres sion would score the highest percentage in 1931. But over the telephone that would not be so high. Prohibition, Hoover, the Japs, all have been subjects for a lot of oral discourse ; but in spite of all the talk none has been fully disposed of yet.

The report pays attention to the responsibility of a corporation in providing employment as follows : . "The System's -experience in this depression is being re corded and studied to see whether any plan can be devised for a still better handling ot the employment situation in possible fu ture periods of depression. Normally, expenditures are under taken by either an individual or a corporation when it is felt that they can be afforded, after giTing due consideration to all other demands that have to be met. Business management nat urally is inclined to spend when income is high and to restrict expenditures when income is-low. This tends to lift the peaks and lower the valleys of employment, which is a hardship on indi Tiduai employees and is detrimental to the business in the long run. It would seem that an employment Teserve set aside out of earnings in prosperous years, might aid in further stabilization of work as well as prove a protection for labor much as a sur-. pins Is a projection for capital. As such a reserve could be built up only after conditions improve, tho adoption of such a plan is not immediate but it will continue to receive serious study and consideration Allan Carson, attorney: "I think it would be a good thing.

S " (Continuing from yesterday:) "Not deeming his answer suffi ciently explicit, I wrote again on the 4th of the month, to which he responded on the 7th as fol lows: (Here is given the letter. more particularly reciting some of the incidents of the trial. In one part of the letter, Col. Car rey wrote: "Steinberger was run ning things with a high hand. and the Oregon cavalry officers were, afraid of him. He had al ready browbeaten Col. Cornelius out of the service and he was after my scalp. The guard house was full of soldiers, sometimes of citizens, and often of Indians. I made one effort to arrest the outrages but was reported for dismissal Insubordination." Col. Currey added a postscript to his letter' in these words: "And not Impertinent to your enquiry, I will say that as a sequence ot my controversy at Walla Walla, I had the pleasure of causing Col. Steinberger's muster out of the service, summarily, and I re lieved him la the command at Fort Walla Walla. Later on I relieved Colonel Maury of the command ot the district, and in a few days became commander of the Department of tha Co lumbia. I make this note that yon may form some idea of tho ordeal I was going through when tho Incident occurred about which you were des irons of know ing some minor details.) S Continuing the text, from Da venport: "Learning that the Hon. Li. T. Barm of Portland was a soldier at the fort In that per lod, I consulted him personally and learned particularly as to the execution. Ho was captain ot the guard that took the Indians to the scaffold and surrounded it until the drop fell. He said that while the smaller Indian was singing a low toned, mournfully monotonous death song the taller one made a speech in which he denied committing aay crime which would confine a white man, and demanded that he be set at liberty. We had a lengthy conversation, in which he said that the soldiers at the fort un derstood the case thoroughly and the UNANIMOUS EXPRESSION was that the execution was un lawful, unnecessary and without ANY SHADOW OF EXCUSE. . . "Almost every day something occurred to show the predatory instincts of human beings and how the presence ot an Inferior order ot civilization, like an In dian reservation, contributes to acts of outlawry.. BAD WHITE MEN and bad Indians, tho lower specimens ot both races, provoke a continual disturbance, and race prejudice, Inflamed by the mem ory of past grievances, tends to bring on a general conflict. Such is tho philosophy that explains tho PREDISPOSING PHASES of our Indian wars. "Although tho reservation sys tem of managing the Indians has been quite generally condemned by the American people. I am of the opinion that for us IT WAS A NECESSITY. They claimed the and upon which they lived and roamed and the claim was cer tainly good if possession elves any right. It was as good as ours. and hence the only rational and just way to get peaceable posses sion was to treat with them for such lands as were needed for settlement and cultivation. Joint occupancy by peoples so different in language, religion, habits of life and social tendency could mean nothing less than continual warfare. "ine mistake or tne govern ment was not in admitting the ti tle of the Indians to the country occupied by them, but In not do ing enough in the lino ot civil izing agencies. With but few ex ceptions the agents of the govern ment were faithless as to tho suc cess of the project, even when they could spare the time from SCHEMES FOR THEIR OWN EN RICHMENT. They did not eater the work with any heart, andr act ing upon the maxim that it is cheaper to feed than to fight In-! dians, of course nothing could come of it. Suppose on the other hand, that as many Incentives to exertion had been given them as the white man enjoys, .... who can doubt that tho red man, too. would have become a successful agriculturist and stock raiser? But, copped up on a tract of coun try not large enough to afford them a living by their ancestral modes, waiting upon the promises of the government, which were often DELAYED, and NEVER ENTIRELY FULFILLED, partly fed, partly clothed, and always In doubt as to the spirit and meaning of the whole business, what else then could they be except vaga bonds or social derelicts, judged in either the savage or civilized fcense? .... 'How little people in general know of the Indian char acter, I often exclaimed after a nine months'ervlce at the Uma tilla. S S "Previously, I was full of false notions concerning Indians, though I knew or rather judged that tho common estimate was far from tho truth. To speak of chastity as being more than an ex ception among Indian women would raise a laugh in any Amer ican community, and the persons holding to such an opinion would be considered . very generous or very green; but I found after a fair inquiry that unchastity among Indian women Is the exception, as No Bids for Bonds riALEM will be safe for an indefinite period from the load O t)f two and a half millions of bonds for a water plant if the disclosures of the highway board meeting are an index.
