The State Capitol, New and Old
INTEREST in the design of the new capitol is growing as
the time draws near for the jury to assemble, view the of
ferings submitted by architects, and pin the blue ribbon of
award on the winner. That will
' Governor Martin was quoted a few weeks ago as saying
the state would get j only j a; "one-horse capitol". If he said
that we believe the revelation will be that the governor was
talking out of his prejudice rather than out of accurate in
formation. Our own guess is
substantial and beautiful building for the money it has ap
propriated. It will not be 'adequate for all the state's! needs;
but the governor's planning board recommended a smalcap-

now, and the others will follow
The wrong inference is
pectation that some; of the departments housed in the old
capitol will not be accommodated in the new. The cause is
not the smallness of j the hew building, but the increased de
mands lor space on the part of the major offices. The legis
lative department wants; about twice the space as before.
with galleries and (more! committee rooms. The governor,
tne secretary or state and the state treasurer are asking from
one and a half to twb times as much floor space. Now if the
new building has atxjmt the same floor space available! and it
is claimed by the major offices, then the smaller departments
will be left out in the cold. This will not be the fault! of the
architects, or of the capitol commission. The legislature was
rremiss in not admitting the very patent fact that government
departments are growing and hence will need morel space.
One of the marked increases is for storage space, made neces
sary by the accumulation; of records. We do not know what
provision is made for destruction of the useless impedimenta
of government in the way of old warrants, correspondence,
routine forms, etc. The fire did perform the service which
some culling authority ought to do' every five or ten years.
Eventually probably; a hall of records will -be needed as a
separate building to house the mountains of . paper which de
serve preservation. 1 j ll
The Statesman has received, in response to its request,
from Carl F. Gould, the commission adviser, a comparison of
space requirements in the old capitol and the new, by depart
ments. It is as follows : 1 ; I

( The old capitol had about 90,000 square feet of floor
area; so the new capitol! will have a total of practically the
same. But that space will be absorbed by departments which
used only about 49,000 square feet in the old building Offi
ces for which provision is not made and which were located
in the old capitol are; forestry, labor, vocational education,
state police, liquor commission, banking. Some of them may
be accommodated in the! state office building when the new
capitol is completed and takes care of the major offices now
housed temporarily in the state office building. Undoubtedly
a new office building must be erected within a very few years.
VVe do not have the slightest idea what the architects
are proposing forOregoh's capitol, or what the jury will ap
prove of. But we aire optimistic. We believe the state will
.a .2 flntl P10 nt elaborate or ornate, but worthy and

the future capitol group which will be developed as needs

on Tuesday having cast a decisive vote for Gov. Landon over
Borah as favorite for the republican nomination. From now
on there will be the balancing of claims of rival camps. The
pne thing certain now is that no candidate has "a majority
of delegates actually instructed for him. On the first ballot
Landon will be in the lead, with Knox and Borah and Van
denberg trailing in j the order named. If Landon piles up
strength in the next ballot or two it will all be over soon. If
he. does not then signs point more to Vandenberg than any
one else. ; , ;: ' - . .
The wooing of Borah will get under way; probably is
under way now, not only to prevent his walking out but to
gam his frank support of the nominee. While he has failed
to develop strength ai a presidential candidate Borah re
mains a powerful. Campaigner and-his defection would re
move considerable support which the republican nominee
will need. If Borah should be adamant against Landon that
might have an influence with the convention; but the proba

Borah provided the Knox support and the Hoover element

: In many ways ,'we may expect the Cleveland convention
to be a jockeying for position for 1940. With a stiff battle
raced in 1935 old party heads may be willing to step aside and
let someone else carry the load this year. In any cast they
will look to 1940 as the year for the bit? tmsh-over. h
. -Admitting the drift to Roosevelt in public favor the last
few months, one must also recognize force in the argument
that so far Roosevelt has had no individual as his opponent.
When the nominee is picked at Cleveland then the forces hos
tile to tnejiew deal will have a leader to get behind; and this
will give a different tone to the campaign. It is still months
before the election, and many a campaign has been won and
lost in the last few weeks of the contest, -

The Great Gace
of Politics "
L By FRANK R. KENT
Cf rrftkt ISM, j Tka Paliar Baa
Facta Unwanted Now
Washington. May 20.
FOR i OBVIOUS" reason .... tne
Roosevelt Administration has
set itself firmly against any in
estimation of
the: ! numerous
a n di serious
chargM of of
fensive parti.
san 1 poll ties
which! pile op
against the
W P lA. Until
the: campaign is
over ft will not
eren j consider
the' ! suggestion
that fan inde
pendent cora-
mfif ion be
rrank a. Kent . named to sur
vey the whole mesa and? report to
the next session of Congress or
to the President with recom
mendations for straightening it
out and nutting relief on a bet
ter basis.
THE FACTS CRY aloud for. both
the investigation and, the sunrey.
There is no excuse for? refusing
either. It is an arrogant attitude
.. . i. .
to assume, impossiDie n exviain
on any other thani f political
grounds. Clearly, to adjnit that
the charges such, for example, as
have' been made recently by Re
presentative Robert Lowe Bacon,
Mrs. Eueene i Meyer apd otner
equally responsible and Reputable
persons are, true is to confess that
the President's solemn kuarantee
that politics would not be permit
ted to creep iato relief: was wortn-
less. Any reaWnvestigatfoa would
at least compel an admission that
Mr. Roosevelt anT Mr. Hopkins
had been unable to keep politics
out-i: " I I :
TO AGREE to a surrey by a com
mission of non-partisan sand com
petent citizens would b to con
fess that the vast and tremend
ously costly scheme to which Mr.
Roosevelt committed himself and
the country has failed, that he
has been on the wrong track irom
the start. It would pi!4 up more
evidence that in these great gov
ernmental experiments jhe does
not know clearly what he is doing
or where he Is going, that his
sense : of direction is not to oe
trusted. Such admission on the
eve of his campaign for Reelection
might be very damaging. It might
nterfere gTayery with the Farley
strategr and destroy the built-up
and wholly j fallacious Jdea that
the situation is undef control.
Hence, the policy Is to Stand pat
on the WPA, ignore theicharge of
politics and waste, continue un
abated the boondogling.j even add
to it new features such, for x-
emple, as has been don la Nash
ville, i Tenn.,' where WEA recrea
tional workers are now teaching
men and women on relief contract
bridge; badminton and croquet.
IN THE MEANTIME figures
gathered from various reliable
sources tend to disprove the Ad
ministration excuses fori failure to
so much as : make a dent in this
the nation's most serious problem.
For example, there is the favorite
contention of Mr.- Roosevelt that
industry has not absorbed the un
employed as it should. Over and
over again nls spokesmen harp
on that, theme. A recectfsuryey of
some three thousand Companies
made by the New TorkJSun indi
cates interesting things: First,
that Unemployment in .Industrial
lines i is not nearly 'asf great as
supposed; second, that twenty of
the largest corportions.f a list of
which is given, have more em
ployes now than ia 19 third,
that unemployment is ppt general
but special, applying to f ertain in
dustries, but not all;: fourth, that
a large proportion of the unem
ployment is not in Industry, as the
Administration would - have us be
lieve, but in agriculture, and the
reason for that, the Sujn 'asserts,
is because "three million fanners
were paid one billion dollars to
curtail production, t h u; leaving
two million farm laborers h I g b
and dry on relief. " j j , :
THESE FIGURES seem to show
tbat, so far from not doing its.
share, industry in general has
done Its share and the president
ial unger-snaaing ana up braid
ings are unjustified.' They also
appear to charge that! the New
Deal itself is responsible for a lot
of unemployment, tbati Its AAA
poller alone has create two mil
lion Idle. The fact Ja if the New
Deal's own figures are; taken, as
is done by the Uhited States
News, an amazing situation is re
vealed. It is shown that while
th ere : are ' f i ve m HUon Jmore per
sons employed In ,1931 - than in,
1933, nevertheless ther are three
million more, on relief now than
three years ago. It would "seem
that the people are entitled to a
real explanation of : this strange
contradictions Yet it is not the
purpose of Mr. Roosevelt to sanc
tion or permit, any' independent
effort to get at the facta.

Unfortunately, everxealous activity
often leads to painful disability.

leyborse Is a slang phrase used for
soreness, of a muscle caused by vio

actually to a rupture of some of the

The rupture , ef the muscle may
produce: the formation of a lump. It
may take anywhere from a month or
more for this swelling to disappear.
Sometimes toe resulting Inflamma
tion, may darnaga and even form
scar in , the muscle. This may be
