Meeting the Issue REPORTS are published of a possible attack on the con stitutionality of the law calling for a convention to consider the amendment repealing the 18th amendment. Dries are said to be the ones considering the resort to legal action. The contention is that because the delegates have to take a pledge to abide by the vote of their counties regard less of their personal views on the prohibition issue the convention will not be a deliberative body and so the scheme is unconstitutional. Without venturing to express any opinion on the consti tutionality question. The Statesman finds itself out of sym pathy with this move. The inhibitions are a? bad on the wets as on the dries, so there is no unfairness in the law. Moreover the fears of the dries are very, very remote. There is scant chance that a county which votes wet would elect a delegate whose platform was dry. Nor would a dry county elect a wet delegate. People may do some foolish things' but they are not that stupid when it comes to balloting. We do not anticipate that any delegate would have to violate his own conscience in order to carry out the terms of the pledge the law requires him to sign. So far as the ruse of staying away from the convention is concerned, that is open to either party; and is one of the elements of poli tical strategy which has to be considered. , The dries should face the issue of repeal squarely. In stead of making threats to resort to court action they should rally their forces to retain what they believe to be a great moral victory. While the force and value of the 18th amendment have been vitiated by the nullification pro posed by a president and carried through by a pliant con gress, nevertheless the danger from repeal through the sub sequent legalization of hard liquors ought to be enough to make people pause before voting for repeal. Prohibition must be fought out before the people and not before the courts. It must depend for its retention and support on the approval of the voting majority and not on possible deci sions of courts on technical points. Our counsel to the leaders of the dries is to plunge into the fight and carry it to the people rather than the courts. Then if they win that expression of the people's choice should put fresh heart into law enforcement. If they lose, it wUl not be the first experience of the sort in the fight against alcohol; and the fight may serve to reorganize the forces of temperance to fresh activity in the future. The struggle against alcoholism should not end with the July election, no matter which way it goes. Germany Plans Moratorium THE Germans are proposing to declare a moratorium on meeting obligations of 'their foreign debts. These debts are held largely in this country. Part of the big cry for cancellation of reparations was due to the hope that this would let Germany carry its post-war debts which are held by individuals in the form of bonds. But having suc ceeded by repudiating reparations Germany now thinks she can get further relief by refusing to permit payments even on the private debts. To a certain extent this probable action is automatic. Germany has not been able to export 'enough goods to obtain the necessary foreign exchange. In another sense however the impending default of Germany following partial default by the United States on its own bonds shows the extent of the collapse of public credit. Since the business of the world is based largely on credit either short or long term, one cannot see this break down without foreboding as to the future. It is to prevent such complete breakdown and to re store the structure of exchange th&t the world economic conference is meeting in London. It offers about the only hope left for prompt world recovery. If the London con ference fails then each country is thrown back into a policy of economic isolation. In any event the buoyant lend ing days of the USA are over. It the plans for improvement of the Willamette go through, a dam at New Era will back up water to within six miles of Salem. I and a second dam six miles below town will dam the river op to a - point above Salem. With still water at and below Salem, what '-about continued damping of sewage Into the stream? Wlthoit the present swift current to carry the collation away and by aeration . to reduce the degree of contamination, the offense may try to heaven. ..4 ffSfegg 4iZ2& Yesterdays ...

Wilis la Oregon Country, It 41: W (Continuing from yesterday:) What Clark called the Isle ot Ma lolo was (likely) the island of Luzon, chief island of the Phil ippine group. The reader win re call that Clark; placed the murder of the nephew of Capt. Wilkes and another officer, and his own miraculous escape from the same fate, on tho "Isle of Malolo." . Malolo is a city, capital ot the province ot Bulacan, on Lusoa is land. One ot the cyclopedias says Malolos has a telegraph station and lies within short distance of a station on tho Manila railroad, and is a considerable trade cen ter. Malolo3 was the first capital of the so-called Philippine republic, proclaimed by tho natives after tho Spanish-American war, but soon abandoned by the insurgent government. The principal crop ef the region la rice. Tho city In 19 OS was credited with a popula tion ot 12,575. The comments in hf book of Clark to the effect that the lands discovered by tho TJ. 3. exploring expedition "may sever be capable of being peopled" sound strange now. Generally.- the lands are capebio ot sustain ins; dno pop ulations, and they swarm with yearly increasing settlements, With1 Hal Hoss. secretary of state, absent from the city for an Indefinite stay tho wheels of stato government will probably cease to function except for routine service. With. Meier and Hoi man at outs with each other and Hess away, few meetings of tho board ot control will be held. Nor do the periodie blasts of the 'state treasurer at the governor's derilectlon fn calling meetings servo to compose the situation. The demands for a "new deal" are -growing more vocal from all over -tho state. Tho Bulova, Watch company .suffered a net loss for tho year ending March 31 of 11,983,932.

The way the others get the drag ' out of the government treasury is just by spreading the bull ova'.

Floyd swore' ho was going to dig Bp some "good" republican to run for governor. "Dig ap' is right; wo referred him to tho cemetery. -!..-- State treasurer Holman is said to bo preparing to address tho state grange and advocate abolition of county government. Since state government has been virtually abolished by inactivity ot iae board of control, perhaps tne same method could bo applied to tne counties. The same government which declares that S. 2 beer is non lntozlcatlng forbids Its sal on Indian reservations. Evidently the uecimai point changes with complexions.

Of course, we eta ot ontbraano of typhoid fever la dif ferent parts eC the country. This Is explained by the prevalence of so- called "typhoid carriers'. "TyphoUl CarrWrs" ' Typhoid carriers are tadrvidaal who havo had typhoid fever aad ttrrue to harbor tbe germs long after they havn been cured of the ailment. These persons may not be aware ef tbe fact that they carry dangerous germs and, in consequence, am a menace to society Typhoid carriers should never a allowed to handle food. They xnnst be isolated or placed nnder medical supervision. " Typhoid fever Is prevented by the purification of water and by the guardian of all food. I am confident that tho disease w01 be completely eradicated when special measures are taken for tbe control ot those an fortunate Individual who for years carry the germs of this disease.

S This swarming, this "rising tide of color," In what Theodore RoosevsK called th "era of tho Pacific" makes oae of the world's greatest problems. Tho great cry now is not that they "may not be capable of being peopled," bat that their teeming and growing millions may not bo capable ot being confined to tho lands that were in the path ot discovery less than 100 years ago, and that they may press upon and overrun all the countries on this side of the Pacitle now dominated by th white race. S Clark followed the sea 15 years, in a most interesting time, just at tho opening of the era or steam navigation. It will not bo surpris ing to see a republication of his little book, for its values as his tory, however crude and sketchy aro many of Its chapter. How little he realized the im portant place In history that was to bo filled by "Captain Salter, from the Rio Sacramento," whom ho casually met at Yerba Bueao (Saa Francisco) in the fall of 1841! "Salter" (Capt. J. A. Butter) went to California through Ore gon, passing over tho she of Sa lem In 1838, and built Fort Sut ter at an opportano time in his tory. Had not tho Wiliametto val ley then been In process of settle ment, sending tho gold discover ers to Sutter's mill, great events "of history would havo boon tar airrereat. That was a link la th chain ( events that led to tho extension of the are of the republic from th snows of the Rockies to the sands oi m paeifle. Tho most important link of that chain was the response of Jason Leo to tho Macedonian caU of tho Indians of th far west; his timely response. Later would havo beoa too late. The covered wagon im migration, started from Leo's coming, was another strong link of that chain. Every link or the chain was necessary in preventing all the country went of the Rockies from going under the British flag. - Captain Sutter, had he been abla enough and wise enough te conserv the values of the discov ery of gold on his concession might have become the richest man in the world. The ruthless and Impetuous flood of gold rush ers from every corner of tho earth prevented that realization and Captain Batter died a poor man Which was perhaps better, for the general good and progress of this country and the world. 1I4I-I90.

' She almost ran no the hUL She wanted to get back to her own big. quiet room, and bury her hot face on the cool white coverlet on the bed.

"Things happen so funny so funny On last look. Yon couldn't se much of th house just the yellow turrets against the wind break of eucalyptus trees. They cut off the view from the low road. "I wish I could have seen the rose garden just once more ... it looked so pretty . . . that night ... in the moonlight ..." Her eyes filled, but she felt bsp . pier.

"On to Saa Francisco!" she . said to the man in the ticket win' dow at the Pier. "Taxi I Taxi!" "All the way up Market Street. Have your fares ready "Pyper lady all about the" Joan stood at the Ferry Building, facing San Francisco alon. All the noise of a big city whirled about her. Rushing commuters pushed her frantically aside as they dashed for closing gates. Newsboys want ed to sell her evening papers, taxi drivers wanted to take her in their bright-colored cabs, hotel men barked strange, unfamiliar names. Street cars whirled jangling around the loop. It was the end of the day. tveryon was going home. Every mo but Joan, who could never go some again. She hadn't realized it would be so sUe nearly six o'clock. She hadn't realized anything, except that Bill was gone. On the boat the green a-ater had sped by, the rails had tereamed, the Sausalito shore had faded away, aad she had watched stupidly, thinking, "Bill's gen . . . a aian t wart tor me . . . Oh BUI, same back, coma back 1" And aow she was in Saa Fran cisco, all alone, with eleven dollars nd twenty cents in her purse, and a clean blouse and a brush and comb and a nightgown im th small vwabtg. Everyone was hurryinx so. It mads her sudxWnly conscious of her own delay. Yon cant stand la one spot forever! Yoa have to go ta a hotel, when yoa haven any home or friends to go to. Bat what hotel? Joaa didnt know. The bus drivers seemed to be all shooting at her, the taxi men too. Even th policeman was staring. A lounger smirked. They were all looking at her, won dering.

She fought a crazy desir to board the nearest street ear, and ride, xide. no . . . just anywhere . . . "Was someon to meet Tan. an dear?" A pleasant faced woman with th gold badge of tho Travelers' Aid pinned on her coat, had come to rm kind -of dumb at times. This seems to be ana of the time. Mind1 if I have a drink?"

"Aah " he said, and made a face. "Doesnt it taste good?" "Terrible I only take it for mj health" New he was laughing again, his big jolly laugh, and Joai felt more at ease. "I thought perhaps yoa could tel me a hotel that wasnt very ezpenv slve." She glanced timidly about the luxuriously appointed room "Not like this one. yoa know! And maybe tell me how I could get a job. I'm afraid I dont know Just how you ret Job." "Well let's se. Can yoa stenog?

It had a glass door, the woman could see her, so she fum bled in her purse for a nickel to make the pantomime more convinc ing. Walter Dunne's card tumbled out Walter Dunne, the only per son she knew in San Francisco! He had said he would be at the Palace for two days, and if he could do anything for her, to just let him know. He could help her now, oh so ranch Sh called the number. After a long while his voice came over the wire, sounding flat and strange. "Who is it? I dont get you. Who? . . . Oh. . . . Listen, baby, I got a date for tonight, see? What? . . . Oh well, come up to the hotel and 111 see what I can do. No, no trou ble, come along. Eighth floor. Just get in the elevator and come right up. Room 810. Ill be at the ele vator." At first he didnt seem glad to see her. "Well for heaven's sake," he said, ofTerinr her a flabby white hand. ''Why did yoa have to pick this night out?. Whatll your sweetie say to this, huh?" Oh. that's why I camel" And ah told him th whole story, breath lessly, confidently. It waa so won derful to have someone to tell it to. He was so big and kind and steady. He would know what to do.

She wanted to get back to her own big room Joan, her brown-gloved hand waa closing on th little bag. "Come we U go over to my office, and it will I li be so much more comfortable wait ing there. "No no, thank you. I'm waiting for someone myself I" Fear stead ied her now. Her mind cleared. She "No, I'm afraid I don't know how to do that either." Dunne glanced at the leather traveling dock on the table. "Gosh. I wish yon hadat picked this night, I've got a date see?" Joan stood up quickly. "Oh I won't keep you. I just thought" "Of course, where vou oneht ta be," he said, looking her up and down critically, "is the stage. I know a man well that's not no good either. I don't suppose yon sing or dance at all?" She shook her head again, her courage oozing. "I thought maybe a store " "Or washing. Take in washing, why don't you? Haw you look like a working girl I don't think. What a problem! And she comes to Uncle ' Walt with it." The telephone jangled, and he rot up to answer it. Yeah, this is Papa. What? Well get a taxi and come. Well, all right, I'll come. Five minutes. Be right along. Slonfr!" He turned to Joan again, looked at her for a long time, with hi pudgy hands stuffed in his pockets. "You're too pretty for your own good. Do you know it?" "Oh no no " rra afraid you are. Now let's see." He went and stood at the win dow for n moment, looking down at the street. "Here, he said at last, "I've rot it. Give you an addresa. Friend of mine.
