Terrorists-or Refugees? : 7 A S a sequence to the discovery that the assassination of JljL King Alexander of Jugoslavia was committed by a member of a terrorist band oslavia, Rumania and Czecho - test against Hungary's alleged offense harboring the ass assins. The Croat terrorists are alleged to have plotted -inurders at a farm at Janka Puszta just over the border . from Jugoslavia, and to have Relations between Hungary strained for a long time; and protection or encouragement tended to tbe band. This introduces the fine point of whether, the band were composed of "terrorists", with a wholesale scheme for as sassination, or whether they . nonaries plotting for the "redemption" of their oppressed people. In other words were they terrorists or refugees? t For centuries political refugees have found shelter cfnl xpreign soil, usually this extended merely to safe harbor; and did not indicate any governmental sympathy with their aspirations or support to their cause.. Switzerland and Eng land were places of refuge for revolutionaries from Germany and Italy and Russia. America was long the asylum for those for whom prison cells were waiting in their home . lands, on account of their political activity. Serbia itself prior to the -world war was. a hotbed of plotting against the Austro-Hungarian monarchy. One of the misfortunes of the war has been the closing , of ports of refuge to aliens driven from their own countries by political oppression. Emma Goldman, anarchist deported from this'country back to Russia, writing on the "tragedy of political exiles" in The Nation, says: ? 'The war for democracy and the advent of left and right dictatorships destroyed whatever freedom of movement polit- , . . leal refugees had formerly enjoyed. Tens of thousands of men, :s women and children have been turned Into modern Ahasuer- ,, uses, forced to roam the earth, admitted nowhere, if they are f fortunate -enough to find asylum it is nearly always-for a short . 5 period only; they are always exposedUlo annoyance and chican- r ery, and their lives are made a veritable helL" Oddly enough, Miss Goldman says "the most unpardon . able offender is the so-called Union of Socialist Soviet Repub lics". There Stalin and the GPU have been ruthless in con demning to exile or to prison or . to Siberia dissident indi viduals. The harsh measures against political rebels is a re- ;: suit of the genera insecurity following the war and post- jwar overturns. No government feels secure; and to protect itself it exiles or. imprisons those whose revolutionary ten dencies are feared." There ought to be some distinction between terrorists and political refugees. Those whose ruling motives are whole sale assassinations and nihilism should be given no encour agement in any country. They should be restrained if too provocative, or at li&st kept in close surveillance. But the fright of fesylunr tCL conscientious political revolutionaries .; should not be denied. Mazzini, the evangel of Italian liberty, "found shelter in England, as have many others. The United .States has been a frequent port of refuge for political ref ugees from .Cuba and other Latin American states. This country has not endorsed or supported them, merely given them asylum. Even Trotsky worked for z time in New York .city. . That Jugoslavia is modifying the rigid policy of Alex . ander is indicated in the announcement of release of polit ical prisoners there, one of them a former premier of the kingdom; and the extension of amnesty to Croats who have - been rebellions.' Such a policy is more enlightened than pro voking a quarrel with Hungary, although Hungary may not be innocent. of wrong-doing in-harboring the Croat as sassins. - ; . An Unowned Man" THE way the opposition newspapers are jumping on Joe Dunne: and trying to dig up dirt against him must be pretty good proof that he is a leading candidate for the office ' of governor. If he were a winded horse in the race the papers would givt him no attention. Instead he has become the .target. Sen. Dunne is a. familiar figure over the state; his record in the legislature is open. He has been an active mem .per of the senate -and has been Identified with much of the most important legislation to be enacted in recent years.' ' .1 Instead of accepting the testimony presented in the heat the present political campaign (although it really hasn't got very hot yet) it might be better to see what was spoken of Joe Dunne before he aspired to be governor. rr SlJ?3,1 session ne butter grading laws were past We didn t think they would do much good, but the Portland -Journal sent Marshall Dana here to lobby for them. With the help of Sen. Dunne the bills .were passed; and the Portland . Journal commented on March 3 : ?- "The Journal is glad that this 'farm friendly legislature ; has given to the state the dairy laws that will help bring Into .. Oregon millions of dollars from world markets. . . . The Joarnal r: remembers the untiring leadership of Senator Joe EL Dunne the - tine work of Represent tire Dorothy KcCnllough Lee and' the courageous position taken by the agriculture committee of the . senate and the food sad dairy prodocU committee o th$ kouse." . Again the Portland Journal endorsed Joe Dunne for a position on the Portland Port commission,' and said of him - on Nov. 7, 1932: f Tt was not by his own motion that Joseph Dunne became a candidate for membership on the Portland Pert commission. . Recognising his fitness, his aggressiveness In public matter aad his progressive ideas, hit friends during his absence from .

H. Talmadge, Sage of Salem King Claudius, our old famntnr of the Hamlet dab, declared that nu orrense was rank and'smelled to heaven. His conscience, it will be called, did not back fir In this manner until he had decided that Hamlet was practically certain to uncover something that was rot ten in the state of Denmark. The sing was not exceptional as a nol- itician. He doubtless honed that Hamiet would sup. in which event he might reasonably ascribe his declaraton to have reference to some trifle, such as closing the aoor or a. not stove with the eras er end of a lead pencil. As the late lamented Lafe Youne was wont to say, politics is a great game. Burley Torp, who considered himself brainy, always carried his loose change in his left-hand vest pocket. Being right-handed, he figured he'd spend less freely If he did so. But It never seemed to make much difference. The wise will submit ta th In. evitable.

The fact that people go in great numbers to see such pic tures as these helps bolster op faith in human nature a faith which at times, because of indfr gesion perhaps, has been a bit wobbly. We like to see, most of us, the honest, old-fashioned love of a girl and a boy or a man and a woman, and we like to see in the contest continually being waged between the forces of good and evil the good triumphant. Whether we find these things in the richly romantic settinsr of a Dumas novel or in the plain coun tryside of an Irvin Cobb story the effect la much the same. .

And the leaky cylinder and pipes of a steam engine sug gested to him Marco Bozaris, "bleeding at every pore." The news has Just reached me by newspaper that Link died the oth er day, an old, old man, at the home of a daughter in Illinois. Hence this thought of him. Elisabeth Barrett naturally read and loved the poetry of Rob ert Browning, but like others of yesterday and today sbe was occa sionally enable to fathom the mean in e of fcla lino An an. dote bearing upon the matter is nsea m "The Barretts of Wlmpole Street" During one of Brown ing's calls at the Barrett home Elizabeth asks him to read a cer tain verse In one of his poems, the sense of which is not qnite clear to her. Browning takes the book and strides back and forth, reading and rereading the verse half aloud. Suddenly he stops, his face wreathed in - smiles. "My dear," he says, "when these lines were written only God and Rob ert Browning knew their meaning, and now only God knows." When a man goes down town to bar beefsteak and retnmi with only a package of breakfast food what is one to think A Salem Citizen Who. did thta Atti-thnt! to a new pair or bifocal glasses he was wearing, but ft seems to no i pretty shaky explanation. Heaven knows the best Of n-rrvl a na tion is shaky enough, but this is vemDie. A feller says to me the other day that life is Uke a cage. (Wo met up with such fellers now and. then.) We're like the jan gle beasts in the menagerie, he says, imprisoned without any re gard to our wishes, and wo doat know where we came from aad we don't know where we're going. Once in a while, he says w al most remember something wo knew a long time ago, but only almost, and sometimes we have a feeling about where we're headed for that's almost a certainty, hat cot sure enough to bet on. And. says he, I ain't going to akin my self all up beatlag against the bars of the cage we're in. No, sir, not me, says he,- I don't aim to make my life a misery by hur rying and fretting.. - X reckon there Is something to what the feller says in the tore going. But such fellers are liable to overdo it. There ain't mnch fun or profit in fishing when a man waits for the worm to crawl onto the hook without assistance. About as ridiculous a thing as I know of is lofty criticism of a person who does not consider laughable something which the critic does consider laughable. It is no discredit to a person to say of him that he is behind the times. I is barely possible the times are going too fast for their own good. All sorts of political prophets are abroad. Personally, I accept most seriously the one who draws his prophesies from a feeling In his bones. I know some pretty good prophets who came from that school. .Winter is approaching. There are all sorts of signs. Crim Tump tells me of a sign that has proved reliable in his family; Wil ly Tamp awakens in the morning with the bedclothes wrapped about his head and his bare legs stick ing out from the knees down.

Stan Still informs me with a (Turn to page 7) Bits for Breakfast By R. J. HENDRICKS Oregon schools la early pioneer days: a V -a (Continuing from yesterday:) Our first public schools (public in that they took all kinds of pu pils) really originated la the cov ered wagon trains on the plains bound for Oregon. From 184) on, nearly every westward bound company of covered wagon im migrants had its school, held by thex evening camp fire, and some of the instructors were scholarly men and women. These teachers often became our early commun ity teachers. This was true of Chloe D. Boone, great-g r e at granddaughter of Daniel Boone of Kentucky. She was in the 184C immigration, and her school was in Polk county, not far from the early Applegate settlement near the RlckrealL back of the present Kllendale. She became the wife of Geo. L. Carry, .secretary of state and three times governor, the last chief executive of the territory of Oregon. Abigail Scott Daniway taught an early school at Cincin nati (Kola.), .:: w "a Outside of the toissioa Indian manual labor school which be came the Oregon Institute and by change of name Willamette un iversity, the first bufldlng erect ed in Salem exclusively for school purposes stood on tbe corner of Commercial street south of Mar ion sqaare. Bat it was a subscrlp tioa school, the frame building for It having been pat. up around I860. Some of its early teachers were Sarelia L. Prlngle, Mrs. Maulsby aad Thomas Caton. In that building was organized the First Congregational church of Salem; political meetings were held ia it, aad it was used as a polling-place ia general elections. and for other purposes. Finally aronad lSSS-sa, it was moved south a few blocks, to about the center of the one between Court and State streets, aad a hook store-waa kept la ft. The latter site was afterward occupied by the Capital National bank. (bow ;'"::'. cbapteb xxn "When's Wallace coming back to town!" . ' "In hemt ton davs. X had a let tVK AivU UUU UM.

They're going to Uke all this err badly. They're all so pleased about my engage ment. They feel as if I'm marrying the kind of man that I probably would hare married if they hadn't lost all their money. Not that Wal lace has much money, for he hasn't But his people have a lot, and my people think that that is frightfully important particularly just now when they're so poor themselves. "It's going to be just plain awful to live with them after they know about you and me," she finished. "That's absurd, Susan." Allen's voice was sharp, and it sounded as if he were out of patience with her. "Absurd?" she repeated. He didn't know how Uncle Worthy could poison a whole day by his sar casm, as he often had, and how Lutie could talk on and on about the possibilities of Susan's becom ing an old maid, as she often had talked durhfjg the months before Wallace's proposal. Tt wouldn't be so bad if I had a job and could be out of the house all flay, or if I could marry you right away and walk out His hands pressed hers. "That's an idea. Why don't you do it?" His face lighted up. "Will you, Susan?" T'm like Garibaldi, I'm afraid," he went on after a pause, "when he told his soldiers he could offer them nothing but cold and hunger and misery if they went on with him I can't offer you much else, Susan, for a while. I haven't enough money for anything but a room la a board ing house somewhere and three meals a day. Pretty slim ones, too. I imagine, while I'm spending so much on this law coarse of mine. How about it?" Susan hesitated. She had a mor tal longing; to say, "Yes," to marry Allen at once and go to live with him itt'a cheap room somewhere. The vision of such a place flashed through her mind badly furnished, small, with trunks shoved under the bed and a gas ring on a table for the making of coffee, bars of sugar and buns on a closet shelf, and over everything the patina of poverty. But it would be lovely T could pass up tbe law course, as far as that goes," Allen said suddenly, and as he spoke Susan made her decision. "Then we'd be sure to have enough money." "No." Susan was emphatic T wouldn't think of letting you do that when you're as close to your bar exams as yoa are Why, you'd be just a courthouse clerk for the rest of your life if you stopped going to law school nowl 111 stay on at home until we can get married the First National.) Ia 1855 the Salem school district was organ ized, in 1857 construction of the "big Central" school house com menced, and it was finished la 1868. The Tittle Central," next to it was erected some years aft er for a school for negro chil dren, for some pioneers brought their slaves, and for several years, in the '60's-'?0'a, Salem had more colored people than now. The "Central" school build ings stood on land now occupied by the Salem high school build ing. Along about 1858, public school money began to become available; at first the expenses were eked out with tuition char g. Among the teachers ia the "big Central'' building for the 10 years beginning with 1S58 were: Syl vester Penaoyer and wife, Dana C Pearson, Clara Watt, A. a Daniels, P. L. Price, S. H. Jea ner, Mr. and Mrs. O. J. Carr, Miss es Emily Belt, Nellie Stipp, X. Humphrey, XL Boise, and Mr. 1. T. Oathouse. Sylvester Pennoyer became governor of Oregon, 1IS7-1SII. Other early teachers became prominent la various ways. Mrs. Rufus Mallory. whose husband served in congress, taught the colored school in the "little Cen tral" building as long as tt was maintained as such; lata sixties and early seventies. Many private schools were taught fa Salem up to tbe late sixties. Ir. V V ' Aside from the peculiar prob lem of colored children, the his tory of school straggles ta what became Salem were aboat the same as those in other parts of early Oregon. The first school buildings were generally of logs: ia eastern Oregon of tamarack logs; with the benches of split logs, the flat sides up, and sup ported on stout pep driven into auger holes.

John had told her some- thins; of the sort at Cnllenr on Christmas day when Aunt Edna had sent for her to come home to take Wallace's telephone call. "YouH have to -crow un seme rime or other, Susie." John had said.

For. usually she and Lutie and Uncle Worthy thought and acted together like one person, and whatever one of them -did was perfect in the eyes of the other two whenever an argument arose that involved Susaa or John. The three older people stood shoulder to shoulder then, as solid as a stone wall; "Why dont von find somethins to do and get out of the house part of the time?" Allen asked. T should think you'd enjoy it, Susan. I've often wondered why you didnt" "Well, I have, too said Susan. Tve wanted to for years, bat they've always been - dead set against it, They seemed to think rd lose caste if I turned into a working girl . They're very old fashioned about things like that.

"I've never touched a typewriter or an adding machines in my life. But the very thought of them the thought of getting into some sort of business office always has fascinated me. I've asked my father a dozen times to let me go to business college, but" "But what?" "Well. I've been roinr around with Wallace for a long time, and my father always pointed out to me that if I married him I wouldn't have any use for a knowledge of office work. That was true, of course." "How lonsr have you known that bird?" "Almost two years., "And you're sure yoa werent In love with him aay of that time, Susan?" His steady raze was still on her face and Susan could see how anxiously he was waitinr to hear her answer. He dldnt seem to be sure of her as he had been the night before when he had drawn her into his arms aad told her, with all the confidence in the world, that he knew she cared for him. "No, I never felt sure of mvself with him. I mean that I always had a suspicion that love was a great deal stronger and mere thrilling than anything I felt for him.
