It is difficult to see why across the broad estuary a bridge may not be built which would be no menace to navigation. The bridge is a visionary project from a financial standpoint; but the arguments against it from i the standpoint of river navigation seem tenuous. Portland has so many bridges of its own It is not in very good i position to criticize a new bridge on the lower Columbia. We have not heard that the Longview bridge has fulfilled : the fears of the early Portland opponents who pictured eddies and currents that might make the bridge danger i ous to ships. Centainly the Columbia must be kept open for free ua vigo. liu u. oaieiu is quite viwuiy iu teres wea in seepiug me I cnannel to the sea open. It is the artery through which flows a large share of our commerce: and anything which r endangers the free use of the river is a menace to the I I entire state. Astoria is interested in maintaining an open river herself. While her own docks may be below the line , of the proposed bridge, she derives much business from I the ships which go on upstream. "The Portland chamber is right in raising the question j as to protection of navigation; but it is making a long leap ! whn it concludes that the bridge would strangle the river shipping and so should be denied construction. The bridge I will not be built anyway until traffic increases greatly there. Meantime the lower river towns go about cherishing unnecessary wounds which the Portland group has afflicted them with. 1 $1 HI I SYNOPSIS fsomewner Ja an adjoinlnc rossa-isctllned. ths reddish tip of a elcar- t . . .

CHAPTER EIGHTEEN Already he was a little bias, Joel- Yesterdays ... Of Old Salem Town Talks from The States man of Earlier Days Farm-Labor Affiliation JTIHE Pacific Rural Press, leader of farm papers on the X coast, views askance the political affiliation of farmers and pity workers. It says: "The attempt, to brlag workers and farmers of this state together Into a movement is not a new ides. The map of the country is dotted with unmarked graves where such efforts died. "Not that farmers are hostile to organised labor, hut I merely that their interests, are- divergent. One buys labor,, the other sells it. "One is capitalist, the ether laborer. . "It -the taxmer were to Insist oar minimum returns on his labor and his capital the laborer as a- buyer of food and , clothing would be the one hardest hit. "During the urest war when the price or wheat was betag. fixed by a committee it was Ur. Gempers who. under threat of national strike scaled the price of wheat tsr below the demands of agrlcnrrtrre. "Labor and farmers weed not aad should not be enemies. Whenever possible they she-aid work together. But it would be a Sb-of mismatlng to attempt to put them in the same move ment and could only lead to trouble' I . That has been the "orthodox" view of many farmers. I In Oregon however the reverse is true. Here the state ' grange and organized labor have a close working alliance. Both organizations have supported income taxes; and both went down the line against the sales tax. In legislatures the working affiliation of the lobbyists of both organizations has been intimate. The common bond of the farm-labor organizations in this and other states lias been antipathy to organized "big business" as represented by banking, utility and corporate interests. Of course they do not have these buzzards in California!

HENDRICKS- History of care of the Insane: a forward look: m (Continuing from Sunday:)' As foretold in the Sunday issuer the report of the sub-committee on state hospitals is set out in full, reading: "The care of the insane of the state of Oregon is intrusted to two institutions. The-, western state organisation at Salem in charge of Dr. Steiner and the eastern- hospital at. Pendleton, in charge of Dr. McNary. Both hos pitals at present are overcrowded. The. Salem institution is- caring for 2 ISO patients with a medical staff of seven doctors. The Pen dleton Institution has 1X00 pa tients with a staff of four doc tors. - "The provisions are fairly ade quate for the institutional, cus todial care of the patients but are not at all adequate for modern treatment. The people of Oregon can well feel grateful to the di rectors and staffs of the two hos pitals. They are well and ably conducted without adequate funds and with a heavy patient overload be substituted for IS hour shift and hourly, wages increased . 25 per cent In Carnegie Steel com pany .plants August If, an nounced. Daily Health Talks By ROYAL S. COPELAND, M. O. THE big truck operators are stepping in to enjoin col lection of fees required by the new transportation act and to suspend enforcement of the law. Thus the act will have to run the gauntlet of litigation, which was. however. already initiated by the small Truck owners. The latter may have had some legitimate grievance. It was not the inten tion of the legislature to put the small truck operator work ing from country or woodlot to town out of business. But there was abundant opportunity for every interest to be heard; and the law was the best thing which could be worked out of the divergent views that were presented. f It will not sit well, with the public to have the big truck operators move to suspend the law. The state reduced passenger car license fees and made up part of the defi ciency through Increases of truck fees. If now it is to be denied this income the road revenues will be in a bad way: land higher fees may have to be restored for passenger cars. The public does not like to 'see great freight haulers moving on state-owned and built and maintained highways without paying an adequate compensation to the state. The , fees imposed by the legislature are the measure of the com pensation which that body thought due and which the truck interests accepted. The public does not relish the pros pect of a court battle in order to collect these revenues which are badly needed for highway work. Henry Morgenthau, Sr., returns from Europe and reports ths countries there sre on the brink of war. That is not new. Europe has been on the brink of war ever since the Roman empire split up. or else was over the brink. For that matter the prophets of gloom usually find this country on the brink of something terri ble most of the time. Spite of ' everything the world still keeps Its dates with the sun and moon.

"We have been Impressed by the careful and humane handling of the patients and the absence of devices to lighten the work of the staff to the detriment of the pa tient which are in evidence in some state hospitals. It seems re markable that, with the existing overload, the staff finds time for a commendable amount ot treat ment. W "With the present staff we feel that any available funds used in these existing organrsations would give an aaequate return in re sults. Our most pressing need ia for an established plan of pre vention and early treatment. The advances in psychiatry occurring in the last few years have allowed for the recognition of mental dis ease In its inciplency- and have provided means for combating these ulBorders. "In Oregon It is necessary that the meatal ease reach a stage of development constituting leeal insanfty before treatment can be arranged, resulting in the neces sity of permanent care of many cases. Many of these same cases with provision for early recogni tion and treatment would contin ue as useful members of society. S "Judging by experiences of other states where definite steps have been taken toward the so lution-tit the problem of mental disease Increase in trained staff at the existing hospitals would increase the discharge rate and lighten the permanent load. How ever, from the standpoint of re ducing the cost to the state and the restoration of the individual, to society, by far the most satis factory results may be obtained by prevention and early treatment work. With the present system It is Impossible to evaluate the act ual number of individuals suffer ing from early mental disorders. We do know that even in the cases discharged from the state hospitals, follow up is Impossible. We hare but a superficial idea of the environment the case is re turning to. and many of these cases return to the state hospital again as a result of a failure of adjustment to the environmental situations that might well be al tered if conditions were known. W S "Our Oregon system for hand ling the mental case we consider one of the most primitive in the United States, and we would rec ommend the following steps : for meeting the problem of mental disorders, and for economy: "1. First the financing of a traveling clinic to evaluate and recommend treatment for "(a) Interpret mental disor ders- "(b) Personality difficulties re sulting In delinquency. "(c) The evaluation ot the mental defective problem and ap titude valuation. (d) For follow up on state hospital eases. "The probable cost through the departments of the University ot Oregon Medical school is $8000 annually. "2. A fifty bed peychiatrlc treatment hospital for commit ment, of incipient cases, for treat ment ana evaluation. "A hospital of this type ade quately applied - with equipment aad personnel should lighten the load on the state hospital, as well a. furnishing piy.rlatric service to the state In the form of clinic personnel for prevention work and for handling problems, ot de linquency ana aerecttve reactions.
