Westward THE midwest drouth of this summer, following close on the longest and bitterest cold spell that 'region remem bered is driving many people toward the Pacific coast. It is observed here that people are coming in looking for loca tions. They say they are through with that country and its extremes of heat and cold. Perhaps they would continue to endure the climate if nature would be kind to their crops. But crop disasters of 1930, 1934 and now 1936 have broken the courage and hope of many. They seek a more equable cli mate, one where crops are surer, . and where Jiving is pleasanter. I " ! Those who come to this valley need search no farther, as far as climate goes. There are other fine climates, but this valley, we believe, is one better adapted to those who have lived in the north central states. Its vegetation is of the north' temperate zone r its people are largely from the north ern states east of the Rockies. The culture of the people is quite the same as in Nebraska or Missouri or Minnesota or Ohio. They will be right at home so far as people go. And they may revel to their hearts' content in (Our cool ocean breezes, in our copious and timely rains, in our green-clad and snow-tipped mountains, in our sun-kissed ocean beaches.

Here they will need to find employment, or business open ings.: More people naturally make more opportunities, but if the folk come too fast there would be difficulty in absorb ing all of them immediately into work and business. After all they cannot eat the climate. So it will require .some effort on the part of their friends here to get them adjusted, and some patience on the part of the newcomers to wait for satis factory openings.- But with our cooperation and their patience much may be accomplished in the settlement of Oregon. Oregon n MEMBERS of the state capitol IVI ing the state inspecting which might le suitable Various reports have come of or granite in southern Oregon, other granitejn Grant county, A maior difficultv which with these rock deposits is the lack of proper quarrying facil ities. Even if the rock is of the desired substance and color, unless the quarry is opened up, with proper equipment for the economical handling of the product the expense of getting the rock out would be prohibitive. Thus, if to get some of the beautiful marbles from the Wallowa it would be necessary to build a road or branch of surface rock in order to get at then to install the machinery shaDine it. it is clear it might will not permit the purchase. If the private owners would make the preliminary investment and furnish the stone at prices reasonably competitive then it would be practical for use. The advertising they would get would be of great value. Unfortunately western construction has generally ig nored the use of stone except the volume of this business is quarries going. Tail to IT IS clear that Dr. Townsend is letting his movement fall into the hands of political opportunists. Just as in Oregon the politicians tried to get in the front seat of the move ment and manipulate the steering wheel, with the result the machine landed in the ditch at the spring primaries, just so the rival politicians seeking to get the Townsend machine headed their way seem-destined to drive it over the cliff, The abrupt ousting of Gomer Smith by Dr4 Townsend, im mediately after he made a speech in reply to Father Cough- lin, is quite amazing and shows is still controlled bv Townsend At Cleveland very little has about $200 a month for the aged,, about the speeding up of spending. Much has been heard about Roosevelt and Lemke. Much has been heard from Father Coughhn whose program, if any, is wild inflation. If the Townsend movement can be recognized after it comes out of the Cleveland convention it will be surprising. At present it is becoming a tail to Father Coughhn s kite. "His Work COL. Henry Breckenridge, whose name is distinguished in the history of the south and of the democratic party, the personal attorney of Charles A. Lindbergh,' and assist ant secretary of war under President Wilson, has declared his intention to vote for Landon and Knox. As a believer in the principles of the party of Jefferson and Jackson and Grover Cleveland he refuses to go along with the new dealers who have captured the party. His brief statement, following a visit: paid to Gov. Landon, will carry weight: ! ""Got. Landon's work la good. He will perform his promises. He has no hidden purposes." I ' "I shall rote for Got.

Regardless of the merits of The Plan." concerning which It is so easy to grow heated, there are itrtril ontsta n d 1 n g facts a boat this Townsend con vention that, In fairness.: should be presented. One is t h a t from the stand point of num bers It is decid edly Impressive. The aine thou sand dues pay 1 a g delegates are all here fftaak - and more. In fact so full was the great hall today that there seemed some foundation for the new claim of thirteen thousand. However, tak ing nine thousand as the figure, it Is said that each of these dele gates Is from a Townsend el ah in which the minimum member ship Is one hundred. , Tht would make them represent some nine million people, all adults and presumably voters. Perhaps, that is too large an estimate, cut it in halt and you still have a for midable block armed with the bal lot. Another convention fact is that from -a standpoint f . en thusiasmfor the first day, any way It is an unqualified suc cess. The cheering was whole hearted, the demonstrations spon taneous; unstinted and without ar tificial stimulation. A third fact is thst Quite clearly the Congres sional investigation neither has impaired the prestige or Dr. Townsend with his followers nor diminished the force of the move ment. On the contrary, the in vestigation has been cleTerly pic tured by the Townsend leaders as an inquisition. Dr. Townsend is portrayed in the martyr role and his "persecution" utilised to in flame the simple hearted ' Town Bendites against "malefactors of great wealth" and the "intrenched Interests" in speeches that seemed curiously to parody Mr. Roose velt's "princes of privilege" and economic royalists" address at Franklin Field a short time ago. Another point that should be made Is that the leaders as well as the followers of the Townsend movement are not only j distinc tively reminiscent of the old Anti Saloon League but a considerable number of them are the same peo- people. They are a non-drinking. and, largely, a non - smoking crowd, -Imbued with one idea and. most of them, Incapable of as similating or holding more than one idea at a time. AU of which makes clear why there exists among a certain numerous breed of politicians that same -disposi tion to cringe before the Town- send ites as was for so many years manifested toward the . Anti-Sa loon League. Politically, the Townsendites are playing the same old game in much the same old way to wit, organizing them selves into a solid voting minor ity in the congressional districts in such a way as to Insure the election of members of the House and, in some cases, the Senate, favorable to their cause. Any such organized minority which cau bring nine thousand dele gates, paying their own expenses, to a five-day convention in July. is a political force in the land and there Is no use blinking the fact. In the last House there were sixty-five known members who favored the Townsend Plan. The thought of the Townsend leaders la that If in the coming election they can Increase this number to a hundred or more, they will have sufficient strength to tie up the entire proceedings of Congress and thus force the pas sage of the Townsend bill. That is their goal and that is the way ihey think they can achieve It So far as the Presidency Is con cerned, the insiders here are per fectly-frank about their position. t i I II ' -a.

United States senator from New York Former Commitsiner of Health, Xe9 York City RECENTLY 1 TOLD you about the Importance ef having a dally routine ef activity for the young child during summer vacation, When school closes the child is confronted with the problem of what to do with his time. Too often the leisure of vacation leads to loss of routine and neglect of the general health. x am- glad to say that many agencies have recognized the Impor tance of summer play with proper superv ision of the growing child. Or ganized play and rest prevent the physical, mental and moral slump that may result from a long vaca tion. Among the outstanding organiza tions la, this field is the Child Study association of New York City. Simi lar organizations are now being formed throughout the country. It la hoped that every community, re gardless of how small It Is. may mako some provision for the child population during the summer month. Summer play schools have many advantage. The health la given first consideration. . Each child has a com plete physical examination before the school opens. If any defect is found he la put In the way ef Its correc tion. Dally Routine The children are placed on a dally routine. This Includes a hot lunch, a rest period, then a shower or a swbn. Xn most Instances milk is given In the mid-afternoon. Children who show unusual signs of fatigue, restlessness or physical discomfort are watched closely and helped in every manner. Properly organized games are encouraged. Many a child attending a summer play school gives evidence of talents which may have been unsuspected during the school year. lis develops Bits for Breakfast By R. j. HENDRICKS 'Wagons West," story T-1I-2C of Marcus and Narclssa Whitman: celebration of centenary of heroic trek: rv" ! ( Continuing from yesterday: ) "On Thursday morning, Septem ber 1, 18S6, Dr. Marcus Whitman. Naretssa Prentiss Whitman, and William H. Gray rode Into Tort Walla Walla in time for breakfast. This, they felt, was journey's end the goal toward which they had been traveling since March 3. the day Marcus and NarcUsa set oat from RushTille, New York, now more than 3S00 miles away. "The rest of the Whitman band reached Fort Walla Walla on Sat urday, September 3. That Sunday there was no question of traveling on the Sabbath. It was a day of rest for thera all." The two paragraphs above are the opening ones of the fourth installment of Miss Henry's se ries. At this point Is a matter of pe- They want to beat Mr. Roosevelt and they way they want to do that is by deflecting as many votes to their followers as possible to Mr. Lemke, the Third party candidate, who favors the Townsend Plan, has been offered a position on the Townsend Board and is, in effect, one of themselves. Two main- reasons are given for the failure of this convention to en dorse the Lemke candidacy. One Is that practically all the pro- Townsend Congressmen and Con gressional candidates are Demo crats. They are running on the same ticket this fall with Mr. Roosevelt. For the Townsend con vention to endorse Mr. Lemke would put these Democratic Con gressional candidates In a Tery hot spot indeed. They either would have to refuse to accept the Town- send action and declare for Roose velt, or they would have to risk almost certain defeat through the resentment of Roosevelt s friends. Including the job holders. In their districts. A fair sample case is that of Congressman Martin Smith of Washington, ; who pre sided over the proceedings today. An avowed Roosevelt man he Is also a leading light In the Town send organization. A Lemke en dorsement would put him in an intolerable position, as he made pretty plain in his speech. The other reason against en dorsement la based on the fact that the Townsend following is overwhelmingly Protestant, large ly composed of Methodists and Baptists. - An endorsement of Lemke, whose chief sponsor is a Catholic priest, would be con strued pretty generally! as equiv alent to an amalgamation with the Coughlin organization. That would not, it is said, gq well with a great many Townsendites. It might create a certain amount of religious feeling. Led by the Democratic Congressman, already committed to Roosevelt, it might make it easy to engineer a split in the Townsend ranks. It won't be done. The resolution to be passed, it is understood, will sim ply declare that It Is not the func tion of the Townsend -movement to endorse Presidential candi dates, that the best f Townsend strategy is to adhere single heart ed ly to the business of putting the Townsend Plan over through the election of Townsend mem bers of Congress. ; r j. What Is proposed Is that later on In a series of combination mass meetings in. selected cities the four leaders Townsend, Cough lin, Smith and Lemke shall ap pear and speak from i the same platform. The three others will individually endorse and assert their intention of Toting for Lera ke. That, it is contended, will have aU the effect of , a conven tion endorsement with none of its attendant risks. Incidentally, one of the Townsend leaders, a citi zen maximus and quite a consplc uous figure, was asked today why Dr. Townsend personally .is so strongly opposed to Mr.- Roosevelt. The answer was emphatic and unsmiling. "The Doctor." he said. "considers Mr. Roosevelt econom ically unsound., qualities leadership, good sports maasbip and a dozen other latent talents. I strongly recommend the forma tion oT these play schools. It Is not necessary to have a larra and hmui. sive staff. Volunteers will be found.

"Didn't I tell you it was perfectly gorgeous?" Doti whispered to Lynn. '"You should hare seen the place when Andre lived here alone. He didn't use these upper rooms, only the two below. He lived in one and worked in the other, and sometimes cooked for himself in the kitchen. Vera had that remodeled complete ly, and the bath. Isn't it sumptu ous? The fittings are gold, and so is that French bed." . ' The bed stood on a low dais, draped and canopied with gold net. Lynn preferred the less regal splen dor of her mother's blue and silver room, but she admired the lavish appointments of these rooms which looked as if they belonged in the Palace at Versailles. But; she recognized that the golden appoint ments were a suitable background for their owner, as soon as she saw her hostess. Vera was wearing gold lace, exactly the shade and texture of her hair, which was her chief asset of beauty. She was altogether charming, and Lynn could see that money was not the only advantage Andre had obtained by his fortu nate marriage. The two large rooms were strik ingly decorated in white and crim son. White bowls of crimson orchids and pigeon-blood vases of white budlea were everywhere. Deep chairs and divans of crimson che nille were offset by table covers of whit matting and ' white lamp shades. A bone-white concert piano stretched its triangular length in one corner over the crimson carpet. Elaborate silver - service covered two long buffets in the dining-room and gleamed in the peculiar light ing of the rooms. This was achieved by indirect illumination, coneealed in opposite corners of the rooms at the ceiling, so that long rays of light cast geometric beams across the white ceilings, like aerial bea cons. There was nothing French about the living rooms. They were distinctly and originally modern. But the wines were French; im ported Sauterne and Burgundy and French Vermouth.
