Her Copy 2 cents On trains and News Stands 5 cents Wage Comparisons IF in prosperous time public employes . have reason to grum ble because of the inadequacy qf their wage, the reverse is true in periods of depression. Recent statistics of the na tional industrial conference board show that in 1932 the per capita averagewage of active employes of federal, state and local governments, was $1,448 which was 24.3 more than per capita full-time wages of employes in all other fields of employment. The $1,448 wage is not large of itself, so small "indeed is the wage which is only three-fourths of that sum. From 1929 to 1932 the average pay in the government group decreased only 1.2, while the average in all other fields decreased 21.1. This should be observed however, that there was a time lag in wage cuts in civil service ; but by 1933 the cuts were severe. That was true in this state and city," and doubtless true elsewhere, so the final figure will doubtless be considerably higher than 1.2. . The group which suffered the worst was agricultural employes. While their 1929 pay wa3 the lowest of any classi fication their cut was 45.1 . Doubtless this does not take into account the fact that most farm workers receive room and board in addition, which at least gave them subsistence. There were many farm hands who worked only for room and board during the winter months on farms. The following tabulation shows how the various wage groups fared, the columns giving average wages in 1929 and in 1932 and the -" 1929 1932 Decline Government 51,466 $1,448 1.2 Manufacturing 1.508 1,115 26.1 Agriculture G48 352 45.7 Mining 1,531 1.049 31. .

The guild describes this as "most alarming and containing a dire threat against freedom." Why is it, government authorities persist in threats against freedom of communication? When the code matter was up and publishers protested the possibility of a govern ment license as a step toward a government-controlled press, the government officials were mean and nasty in their insinu ations. The sincerity of publishers was attacked and it was asserted that their protest was a smoke screen to permit them to continue bad labor conditions. Yet here is a plain attempt to legalize power to throttle the press, under cloak of national emergency. It is almost an invitation to some future dictator to "declare a state of public peril" and seize control of the channels of commun ication. Against this the newspaper guild properly raise alarm, and the publishers should resist the language of the section. j The United States has succeeded fairly well under a! free press; and there should be no attempt now to beat a retreat to a muzzled press, with the control resting in the hands of politicians who may determine their own "emer gency". Pres. Roosevelt has frequently stated he has no in tention of infringing constitutional grants of freedom ; con gress will do well to follow his policy and exclude such dan gerous clauses from the Rayburn bill. It grows tiresome to reiterate ; but we will repeat, that the fascist or communist danger is real ; and that the quick est way of bringing such a change is through suppression of a free press. or Drea By R. J. HENDRICKS Rain Relieves Drouth NORTH DAKOTA reports a $40,000,000 rain. Showers came in time to benefit the spring crop greatly, though too late to aid the winter wheat over nvich of the southwest. The range will quickly revive under showers ; and these may be expected in the middle west all through the summer. It is on this slope of the Rockies that the rains are sure to cease in mid-summer, not to come until falU Tremendous damage has been done in the midwest to the season's crops; but rains may revive the pasture and provide forage for livestock. The effect of the drouth damage will be serious, perhaps more so than is realized now. We have felt that the 1930 drouth was a great factor in deepening the depression. It came when business was on the upturn, killed the 1930 re vival, and helped grease the skids for further decline. We pray such will not be the consequence of this malfeasance of nature. Judge Matthew P. Deady: Colorful old time Oregon career; broke new ground, marked new trails in law: S S (Continuing from yesterday:) At Oregon City young Deady rest ed a few days, and, leaving his little hair trunk which he ha'd. with a few books and extra cloth, ing, managed to get safely across the plains, he started on foot for Lafayette, then a promising town in its third year, and the county seat of Yamhill county. S His purse being nearly empty, young Deady made an arrange ment with Prof. John E. Lyle to aidTiim to the close of the term of school he was teaching,; for a compensation sufficient to pay his board. W hen the term expired, he taught another term as an equal partner, and made $75 a month, and gained pleasant acquaintance ships with the best neonl of thA section and not a few boys and girls, afterward heads of .families and prominent in Oregon, were proud to speak of having gone "to school to Judge Deady." ". ". "ioung Deady acted as adviser and aid to the county commis sioners in getting the legal ma chinery of the county in motion. in iwarcn, .Matthew P. Deady made his debut as a lawyer in Ore gon before Judge O. C. Pratt, in three cases, a criminal action, a civil one and a suit for divorce the last named had to be carried up to the legislature, which to that time granted final divorces in Oregon. The court was a large un occupied room In Jacob Hawn's tavern at Lafayette. The bench and furniture were improvised for the occasion but the dignity and order of the court, so far as de pended upon the Judge, would not suffer from comparison with the highest tribunal In any country. ". The first 100 the young prac titioner got ahead he sent back to St. Clairsville, to Henry Kennon, to discharge some pecuniary obli gations he was under to him and others, who were kind enough to help him when he left there. They had heard that he had died of cholera on the plains, and had given up the amounts for lost, the receiDt of the remittance being the first news they had re ceived to tne contrary. ". U At the election the first Mon day in June, 1850, Mr. Deady wa3 chosen, without convention or caucus, a member of the lower house of the Oregon territorial legislature from Yamhill county. During that summer, 'for two months, he had charge of the La fayette store of his friend. Elder Glen O. Burnett, brother of Gov ernor Peter H. Burnett of Cali fornia, while he was gone to San Francisco after goods. The cur rency was largely gold dust. For a small sum, he took a pinch from the customer's buckskin bag of dust, while large sums were weighed out in the coffee and u. gar scales the store usually get ting "down" weight.

By ROYAL S. COPELAND, M. D. United States senator from New York Fortner Vomvueriiner of Health. Kew York City A TERM, "focal Infection". !s com monly heard In every day conversa tion. I wonder how many who use it actually know its meaning. This ts an expression which has come into use within recent years. In fact. It is only within the past decade that the condition has been recognized and accepted by the medical pro fession. By focal infec tion is meant a d 1 a t urbance or Infection existing somewhere in the body, but produc ing symptoms re mote from the Infected area. For example, you may have pain In a shoulder, foot or toe. Upon careful examination no Infection is found at one of these points, but farther In vestigation may reveal a focus or point of Infection in the teeth, nose or tonsils, or even In the gall bladder. Poisons tli Body This localized disturbance Is the point of focal infection. Tha poisons or toxins generated In the Infected tooth or tonsil are circulating in your body. They set upon some weak place. fcausing an Irritation there, but so far away as to make It difficult te find the real seat ef trouble. Though the teeth, tonsils and nasal sinuses are the most common sites of focal Infection, the appendix, gall bladder or other organ may be the Place of disease. Bear in mind that any Infected organ of the body Is a definite hindrance to good health and a stumbling block to long life. No one will deny the dangers of a diseased appendix. Yet acute pain In the region of the appendix may be Dr. Copeland entirely absent. This confuses the sufferer who believes himself free from the danger of an inflamed ap pendix because he has no pain on the right side. Digestive disturbances, such as nausea and headache, back ache and other pains, may be signs of focal infection. Their presence warrants a search for the underly ing cause of discomfort X-Ray Examinations Fortunately, modern methods of diagnosis and a more thorough un derstanding of focal InfecUon, have minimized its dangers. It is now pos sible to visualize certain structures and accurately determine if they are the cause of the InfecUon. 1 refer to the use of the X-ray machine and other modern Instruments of diag nosis. All persons who have vague and unaccounted for complaints should be warned of the possibility of focal infection. Even though your teeth appear to be in good condlUon and free from pain I would advise peri odic X-ray examinations. As I have stated, the teeth and nasal sinuses are the most common points of focal Infection and may be the seat of trouble elsewhere In the body. A simple X-ray picture will determine whether or not they are Infected. There may be a temptation to over state the possibilities of focal Infec tion. It cannot be denied, however, that many a happy person Is ready to testify what relief, almost magical relief, baa followed the clearing- up of a focal Infection. Answers to Health Qaerios Fannie. Q.

B., tncj sometlnies on Sundays he attend ed the Campbellite meeting in the school house. In December he went to Oregon City, to attend the 1850-1 session of the legislature, where he met for the first time Asahel Bush, clerk of the house; and also James W. Nesmith. With them he form ed a friendship, which colored his after life, and which, indeed, had a marked influence on the cur rent of public affairs causing these three some times to be call ed "the triumvirate." That was the session at which, Jan. 13. 1851. Salem was made the capital of Oregon and re mained so, after a succession of long and bitter fights. Judge Deady's career commen ced there, and he was never after out of the harness until death re moved him from earthlv ncpnpa In that session he served on sev eral Important committees, includ ing the judiciary, and did a large amount of work in drafting bills, writing reports and shaping legis lation in the committees. At the close of the sessinn hp prepared for publication the laws passed, also certain laws of the 1849 session. This was done at the request of Gen. Edward Hamilton, secretary of the territory. It was the first volume of laws publish ed in the territory, and was some times called the Hamilton code : In 1851, Yamhill elected Judge Deady to the council (nnnor house) of the legislature. He was reelected in 1852. and was res ident of the council In thn iss?.5 session. Thus he served in both sessions of the legislature held in basement rooms of the Oreeon In stitute, that by change of name became Willamette univprsitv And he presided over the' council when the institution waa rhr. tered, Jan. 13, 1853. and its name changed. s s June 24. 1852. Mafth pw T Deady married Miss Lucy A. Hen derson, eldest child of Robert Henderson, Yamhill county farm er, tne family immigrants of 1846 over the southern route. Three children came to the Deadv home, kdward Nesmith, Paul Ro bert and Henderson Brooke; the first two becoming lawyers and the last named a physician. Paul R. was for a long time commis sioner of the U. S. circuit court. S S Matthew P. Deady was in 1853 appointed by President Pierce one of the supreme judges of Oregon. He held court in the sftuthern one of the three districts, twice a year in each county. No regular courts had ever been held there before. In the summer of 1853, he paid a squatter to abandon a claim on Camas Swale in the Ump qua valley, not far from the his toric town of Wilbur, which he took nnder the donation act, mov ing his family there in the fall of that year. The location was beau tiful, and he named his place Fair Oaks. There he lived until 1860, carrying on improvements, divid ing time between holding court and laboring with his own hands, the latter at such times awhe could spare between official du ties and going from the points which the dates required, besides keeping up hia studies which tilled all his hours, for he was obliged to travel at least 1500 miles a year, mostly on horseback. Circuit Judges In Oregon then performed also the duties of jus tices of the supreme court which brought Judge Deady often to the capital at Salem. m S He organized the courts of four of the counties of southern Ore gon.

Running to the window m John Herbert's room, they watched without a word until the ear dis appeared from sight up the hill toward the Ridge Highway. Ann Qaskel drew a long breath Then Kht lanched a aueer. half- smothered sort of laugh and mut tered to herself: "Wal. shoot me daid an' dont miss!

Hit s a court mat ter, that's what hit is. You don't dast fool a bank lawyer sich as him. "Tain't safe hit's " "Shet up. I got a right smart job of thinkin' to do." "But, Ann," wailed Nance, "you told that bank lawyer hit done war- 'Shet up. I tell you." "But you dassent do sich as that, Ann Haskel. Not even you dast do hit. You an' me both know good an' well what you made that bank law yer believe warn't so; leastways not all of hit. Didn t you hyear him say how he'd be a-comin back with law papers an' sich fer we-uns to sign? Didn't yon? An' didn't he say as how tharM be court swear in' an' sich? I'm a-tellin' you you don't dast do hit. Anyway, if so be you air sich a fool s to try bit on. you ain't a-goin' to make me swear to no court what I m a-knowin all the time ain't so. I don't low to r git myse'f " Poor Nance's voice died away in a low wail of terror as she caught sight of Ann Haskel s face. Deliberately the mountain wom an moved to a rifle which stood be side the fireplace. As she reached for the eun, Nance, with a moaning cry, ieu to her knees, blowly Ann Haskel turned with the weapon in her hands "No, no Ann, don't do hit! Gawd's mercy, don't do hit!" "I warned you." "You sure did. Ann; I know you did. An' I've alius done jest like you said you know I have. I ain't aimin' to tell nobody, Ann. I swear to Gawd I ain't." Slowly the mountain woman re turned the rifle to its place. Nance, with a sob of relief, rose to her feet and slumped into a chair. With a corner of her apron she wiped the perspiration from her face, and the action seemed some how to restore in a measure her usual stoical calm. "I'd 'most forgot how hit war myse'f," she said, humbly. "Hit all happened so long ago. Hit ain't made no difference to nobody so far's I can see yit." "What difference do you reckon hit's a-goin' to make now?" de manded Ann. Torn between her fear of her com panion and her fear of the vague unknown power which, to her mind. Levering personified, Nance an swered, pleadingly: "Didn't you hyear him tell "bout law papers an' swearin' an' sich, Ann? This hyear what you air a-doin's a court matter. You don't dast, Ann you ain't got no right!" With grim determination Ann Haskel raid, "Mebbe I ain't got no law right; then ag'in, considerin' verything, mebbe I jrot a right what's bigger'n any law the courts car. make. I ain't never been too particular "bout laws4 an' courts, no how. I sure ain't aimin' to be too particular, now. Anyhow, I got a chance, an sometimes a chance air a lonp-sight better'n a right."

W hat air you a-dom hit fer, Ann ? You got a sight more money now than ary other body in these parts. We-nns couldn't use no more money-if you had hit, We-uns got everythine we ned right now. I jest can't see no sense in a body takin sich awful risks. Ann smiled grimly. "I reckon as how you can't, Nanw." She contin ued, more to hersell than to her companion: cut what we-uns hyear in these backwoods has got air less n nothm to what s out yon der. All my life I been a-honin' fer somethin' what I can sense is some whar out thar. I've alius knowed I could eit to hit if only I had a chance. But things has alius kept a-holdin' me back. Ever since I war a girl 'fore even I war married I ve been a-tryin an a-try in to break away. But somehow things jest kept on a-holdin' me back more an' more. When I got to know Jedge Shannon bit seemed, like he war gom to he p me. Seemed like he brung all them things from out yon der right close so's I could feel 'em plainer'n I'd ever done before. Then Ed Haskel war killed an' the jedge he didn t never come back. I nggered out after a spell why he didn't an' I ain't never faulted him fer stayin' away. So when I seed the jedge warn't never eomih ag'in, an' hit warn t no use fer me to go on a-wan tin' fer myse'f. I jest set tled down to git fer John Herbert all them things what I couldn t never have. Everythine war a-workin' out fine fer Herb, jest like I'd planned. He didn't even know what kind of a woman I war. He war sure free from everything what's alius been a-holdin' me. Then he come home an' found out about me like I never meant fer him to do. An' that triflin'. no- 'count artist gal's got him so's he ain't no better'n them Lodge folks. Seems like everythine I'd planned fer him is all messed up. The poor Doy can t live like we-uns does, 'cause he's too educated. An' he ain't able to live up to his schoolin' 'cause he can't make the money. xou want to know what I'm aimin' to do with this hyear chance I got now? Wal, ni tell you, Nance Jordan, I'm aimin' to eit fer my boy all them things eut yon der what his education an' iringin' up has fitted him to have. I'm a-doin' what I be so's I can go on a-takin' care of John Herbert jest like I've alius done. Hit's easv hough to see that with all them fool notions 'bout book-writin' an' sich what he's got long with his schoolin' thevpoor boy ain't never eoin' to be able to take care of hisse'f." Ann Haskel keDt the first visit of lawyer Levering and his amaz ing story of the Haskel fortune a secret even from her son. Thar ain't never no use a-e-oin' off half-cocked," she told Nance, "an mostly hit spoils everything. Suppose I war to tell Herb an' git him all stirred up an expectin', an' then soraethhr should tarn up an leave we-uns right whar we be now? Best wait an' Jay low till hit's all settled an' I'm plum' sure. I ain't a-wantin' my boy to think I've gone plum' crazy alone with all the other things he's a-thinkin' 'bout me. Time enough to break hit to Herb when I've sure 'nough got the money. As fer other folks wouldn't nobody believe hit if me or you war to go tellin' hit around. I aint aimin' to take no chance of eittin' myself laughed at all the balance of my days. Thar's good reasons, too, why hit's best fer me an' Herb both that they don't never know. Folks hereabouts talk too dad-burned much about my doin's now. If they war to hyear about about all this money a-comin' to me, somebody'd sure be a-stirrin' up trouble. What folks don't know ain't goin' to hurt them ner any body else. Hit's alius safest to let sleenin' dogs lay J. When the representative of the Trust Company had returned and the business had been concluded in due legal form, Ann told her son of the change in their ' circum stances. She told him quietly, in as few words as possible. Calmly she an swered his excited questions. With a matter-of-fact business air she showed Jfim that the Trust Com pany hafl actually placed this large fortune to her credit. But, in spite of his mother's characteristic emotional restraint John Herbert felt beneath her calm a tremendous excitement. It was as if the whole structure of the mountain woman's self was being shaken. Elements of her nature which for years had been sub merged were already beeinnine to struggle toward the surface. De sires, dreams, hopes, buried deep under the stern necessities of her hard life, were stirring with new strength. Forces lone denied snH held in bondage by the dominant material demands of circumstance and environment were moving to ward freedom. Emotions which she had kept shut up in the secret depths of her inner self were ris ing toward the light. But, while the youne man sensed dimlv this turmoil beneath the surface calm. he could not grasp the full signifi cance ox wnat was happening. Col lege text-books and lectures had furnished him no key to such bits. teries as this. His study of litera ture had given him no clue to these hidden things. His legal training had supplied him with no law which was applicable here. When Ann told John RprKprt that they were leaving for the city immediately, me young man as sented readily enoueh. But whon he learned that Nance Jordan was to go with them he venturer! tn remonstrate. I reckon you're right so far as you know," his mother replied. Nance is bound to he sort nf wt like anywhar but here in the back woods, an' she's liable to need a heap of lookic' after." She laughed "I 'low I ain't goin' to feel jest to say at home, myself not right at first. I aim to 1'arn, though. But I reckon as how N' n n climbed plum' to the top of her hill of l'arnin' 'fore ever she war a growed-up woman. Tain't never eoin' to be possible fer her to git no higher. A woods colt she war borned an' woods colt shU alius be. Jest the same, son, thar's rea sons why I've got to take her along. Am t no tellin vhat'd happen if she war to be left here without me around. 111 feel a heap easier in my mind havin' her whar I can look after her." That same day John Herbert went to Wilderness Station to make their Pullman reservations on the main line, for they would spend a night on the train. By a strange chance it was the day that Diane was leavine and the t young people had a few minutes to gether before the girl's train pulled out. John Herbert did not think it necessary to mention thp irwiriont- to his mother. (To Be Continued) CopyHiM. 1S1I. by Hirold tb-ll KrlfM. Dliu-Ifmud bj Kim Feature, Sjndlcai,.
