Safety To the Editor: In your Safety Valve column this week I noticed a letter from Mrs. Palmer which gives much food for thought as many can,tell you who live in the vicinity of any school. Not all children are naughty, but too many have nev er been taught the golden rule: "Do unto others as you would have others do unto you." Such boys, and I'm sorry to say, some girls, will grow up in to the same kind of people as they are like in their childhood. Few mothers believe their children are misbehaving. If they are con fronted with the truth, they laugh about it. Now in the vicinity of schools they run through yards, tramp down flowers and throw paper everywhere. The smaller boys throw rocks, breaking gar age windows and often windows of empty houses. Our property is taxed to the limit to keep the schools running, as this writer in yesterday's paper remarked: "They mark things, trees, for plunder." Well, they took a wagon irom the porch which had been spotted. A child who will take things now will take later in life. Surely, any mother knows that. Then we got a dog which is kept constantly chained. It bark ed considerably and on investigat ing we found several boys, each time, stamping their feet and run ning in the yard, daring the dog. Some of the children are saucy and make faces. Some parents honestly try to raise their children right. How quickly one can tell which chil dren come from these parents' homes. For "as the twig is bent. the tree will grow." There's an ordinance for dogs, chickens, etc. Why not have one to make good citizens of all our boys and girls? MARGARET ALLEN. WANTS LAW CHANGED To the Editor. Statesman: There is a serious matter which should be brought before the public mind. That is the lax law regarding the trial of those com mitted to the insane asylum. At present me law leaves a loophole by which unscrupulous persons may easily dispose of an enemy or any other person whom they might want to get rid of Persons are taken to the asylum on the say so of one doctor and without the privilege of having witnesses. Should a citizen living in the "Land of the Free and the Home- of the Brave" be deprived of hi liberty by such a proce dure? . A new addition to the insane asylum is planned to be built at a cost of $100,000. All very well, I suppose, but why not cut off the flood where it starts? Should the grand old state of Oregon be besmirched by such a law as ex ists? Should the liberties of Its citizens be constantly in jeopardy for the want of a Just and right eous provision for disposing of the insane? Are we to be behind other states in the matter of the guar antee of Justice? California, for instance, provides for trial by a board of doctors before a superior Judge, the defendant having the privilege of witnesses and a Jury trial wnere doubt exists. Taxpayers should raise a pro test. Ministers of the Gospel should rise in the name of bu manity, and all who are interest ed In the welfare of the state and its citizens should rise up and see to it that a more modern, just and equitable commitment la be placed on the statute books of our fair state. Yours for service, F. P. CHEDESTER. OPEN LETTER TO BOARD To the Editor: We have heard of various puzzles and here is a great Amer ican puzzle which so far is un- solvable. Due to the depression of the past few years many mil lions of American citizens, from all walks of life and professions. have been without work for so long that they have had to se cure relief and suffer the humil latlon of being listed on relief rolls. Occasionally these people secure work for a few weeks or a few days, usually what is known as relief work. Now comes -the puzzle. These people, being in nearly every case, honest and de sirous of paying debts and, keep 1 - eft- -. '"' Valve ing their rent, lights, water, etc.. paid, are faced with this dilem ma or puzzle. If they do not pay these bills they are branded by those they owe and the public in general as dishonest, but, on the other hand, If they use even a part of the small amount they earn to pay debts, rent, etc., and then apply for more relief, tbev are asked what they did with the money they earned. If they say, "I used so much to pay some bills I owed or to pay my rent, 'lights, water, etc.," they are told bv the relief dispensers that they should use the money for groceries only and by no means pay any such bills. The -puzzle is "to pay or not to pay" to be honest and starve or dishonest andbe recognized by the relief board. If those who do relief work are not to pay rent then there should be some pro vision made whereby the land lords would be irevented from evicting those people for non payment of rent. If they are not to pay for lights and water, the light and water companies should be compelled to furnish same without cost to those people. If they are not to pay doctor or hospital bills then, when these people are 111 and must have these services or die, then doctors and hospitals should be compelled to render their services without charge. I think It is safe to say that there is practically no one on relief who is not in debt for everyone exhausted every means of living, including going in debt. before they applied for relief. Now what are they to do? If the relief agencies are allowed to force people on relief to desist from paying their honest debts then they should declare a mora torium on the debts of each and every person who is given relief and let it be known publicly that the blame for non-payment rests on the relief boards rather than on the person on relief. It seems that the relief boards and relief dispensers are not only encouraging but actually forcing those on the relief rolls to be dishonest, to be chiselers and in every way break down their prin ciples and morale. Maybe one solution of this problem would be to have an en tire new setup and, instead of having people who have plenty to live on and . young girls Just out of school to handle the re lief business, to have only those who have experienced real bard times, who can furnish proof that at some times they have- been hungry and, above all, those who have heart enough to be concern ed about the cries of hungry chil dren and children who- haven't clothes enough to keep them warm. It might be a good Idea to give this work to mothers who have had the experience ot hear ing their own cblldaen cry be cause of hunger, cold and sick ness and also (he experience of having been forcibly thrown out of a home because of non-pay' ment of rent. If there is some one who is wise enough to solve this puzzle, mentioned above, they would be rendering a service to millions of people. Also seme one might answer these questions: Who is it . that gives young girls the authority to tell a family just how much they should eat and what they should wear? Who gives them the authority to call every man who is unfortunate enough to have to ask for relief, a communist? Also why are at least part of these girls are imported from other coun ties? In at least one county letters are being sent out to those who have had a few weeks' work stat ing that they will not be eligible for relief for a period of some six or seven months. A tew weeks ago congress pass ed the bill providing S4.000.000 000 for work relief and 1830,- 000,000 for direct relief. Why was the money appropriated If not for the relief of the 25,000.000 to 30,000,000 on -elief? And why is it that the government says they can have relief and puts tip the money and then some younc girl says they can't, and, at the same time tells them they should not pay their bills and if they do they MT.

Maybe the state relief board can solve this puzzle so that these millions of jeople will know what tq do. This 4s one of the items In the relief problem which the gover nor's Investigating committee fail ed to find. Yours for a fair deal for all. MRS. ENID L.

Are Dried Prunes Really Plums or is Miss Stein Right? Brush Creek Asks BRUSH CREEK, June 15. "II cannot believe that prunes are dried plums. They are dried, but they are not really dried plums. Plums are not raisins, especially not raisins used especially for cooking. Prunes are prunes, and plums are something else, go are raisins." ' . This is not a Gertrude Stein quotation. It is the mental mer ry-go-around some prune growers (or is it plum?) have been riding the past week. It all came about' by a clipping from a Chicago paper. At first the clipping occasioned only amusement. It gave the informa tion that prunes are dried plums. The information was given in an swer to a question which appear ed in a -list under the heading, "What Do You Know? The Know ledge Test." This particular bit of rare knowledge was given in answer to the question: "What is the difference between raisins and prunes?" To which the answer read, "Raisins are dried grapes, and prunes are dried plums." Mrs. Lena Burkert, Dies at Woodburn WOODBURN, June 15.

Prune, said that gentleman, is any plum that has been dried without fermentation." So then prune growers began wondering if they were prune growers after all. It would seem they are plum growers until the fruit is dried But Webster has this also to say of a plum, "plum, & raisin, especi- ally one used In cooking." So the question became. Are prune growers not prune" growers but plum growers or perhaps even raisin growers? Growers hereabouts contend that Pacific and Italians are still prunes both before and after dry ing, and that a peach plum would n't turn into a prune no matter how much it was dried.
