Does Philosophy Pall
THE Oregonian comments on the venturing; of Professor
Einstein into the field of practical affairs, and thinks
'- it would be wiser for the emnient scientist to stick to his
telescopes, like the cobbler to his last. Einstein has long been
known as a pacifist. That should surprise no one for war
seems monumentally stupid. He seems to be going farther
into pronouncements on world affairs.
1 ' '-V' Is it becoming a habit for scientists and philosophers
tn leave nff thpir trifnlcfno- that thev mar mix in the troubles
of this mundane sphere? John Dewey reached his fame as
one of the greatest philosophers this country produced. In
these latter years however he has gone "pink". He heads the
league for independent political action. He lines tip with so-called
radical groups, and must spend so much time with po
litical agitation that his tomes of philosophy gather dust on
the shelves of his library.
Bertrand Russell, son of Lord John Russell, turned to
the academic life and rose to eminence as a mathematician.
It is only a short step from higher mathematics in this day
to pure philosophy, so Russell shifted to that field, just as
Prof. Whitehead has done. Russell too became infected with
political bugs and is affiliated in sympathies with left wing
ptout. His radicalism extends to social as well as political
fields.
Now in the case of Einstein we wonder if we are to lose
the greatest scientific mind of the age to gain another soap
' boxer. We are not quarrelling with these men at all over their
political theories. They are welcome to what opinion they
choose. But it does seem a pity that when the world has so

AFTER the highway department "technocrats" got
through with graphing the state finances they not only
located the exact amount of the deficit at present, $2,302,000,
but projected their graph ahead for two years and predicted
, there would be a surplus of $500,000 by May 1, 1935 "pro
tided the present tax measures are retained and not disturb
ed by the legislature."
This points very definitely to a policy such as The States
man commended to the legislature Wednesday morning. Do
no tax tinkering so far as the 1933 collections go; add no
new forms of taxation but modify somewhat the indirect tax
es to malce them more productive. This may mean a very
small property tax, but one not at all out of proportion to the
fair distribution of the burden.

take its chances along with the counties in collections, in
stead of requiring the county to dig up the state tax in full.
Tills requirement of law is not an accident but a product of
long experience and one fully justified. The credit of the
state is paramount. Let it suffer and every subordinate unit
suffers, as well as every private business. The counties, it
must be remembered, receive 8 interest on all delinquent
taxes; and the history of over 70 years shows that the coun
ties receive their taxes with very scant loss. It is not wise to
overturn this basis of distribution of tax payments.
One modification is in order. The penalty for delin
quency should be restored or else some discount provided for
those who pay in full say by April 1st. This will prove a
wonderful stimulus for bringing in the money.

A New State Department?
THE legislature should go slow in the matter of consol
idating' a miscellaneous assortment of boards into new
departments with a high-salaried director at the top.
If functions are closely related then there may be wisdom
in the merger. But where they are unrelated it may result
. in no economy and in loss of efficiency. We have seen such
consolidations before and often the result' is merely that a
new overhead office is created with increased expense. Take
the state police department which the governor assured the
legislature two years ago would permit him to save the
state a quarter of a million dollars. It has cost just as much ;
as the former separate services. The department has func
tloned admirably as a crime detection agency. It is doubtful
however if the traffic department or the game department is
any more efficient than formerly.
What should be required is that expenses of these sun-
dry boards should be budgeted 'and balances at the end of
the year converted Into the state genera fund.;
