Oregon's Grazing Lands
IN an address at Corvallis Wednesday night F. R. Carpen
ter, administrator of the Taylor grazing aQtj criticised the
i Oregon land board for leasing some 300,000 acres of its
school lands in eastern Oregon to- former Senator Stanf leld s
company at a rental of around 15 mills per acre. Carpenter
expressed the fear-that the state was not cooperating with
the federal government in its program for conservation in
the grazing domain, that erosion would follow witn silting of
thp Owvhpfi reservoir. I
Investigation reveals the
m a . - J
in its leases nas insenea provisions wiic icanc mc tootv.
to conform to the regulations of the department of the inter
ior and to comply with the regulations and apply for the bene
fits under the federal agricultural act. Specific protection is
provided against over-grazing and running stock at the
wrong season of the year. In thi3 regard Mr. Carpenter's
criticism seems unfounded. j
Another point in the current news is the objection to
Stanfield's sub-leasing of part of the area. Some sections, it
is said, he will sub-let for 10 cents an acre. This will show
, him a big profit on the particular section ; but it must be real
ized that there are vast areas of little value, where he can de
rive no profit. Whether it is sound policy to allow sub-leasing
this paper does not undertake to say ; but in making the lease
the board accepted Stanfield's bid because it was the highest,
and then allotted to small bidders all the land they asked for,
srivincr to Stan field all the remainder. -1
, This grazing land problem is a tough one for the board to
handle. The sections are scattered, (nos. 16 and 36 in each
township). It is impossible to police them all; and it is not
practical to fence them. The state is almost at the mercy of
the occupants of the surrounding lands.
What is needed is the blocking of these state lands into
solid areas. The land board is undertaking such a project
now; and the Taylor act is mandatory in that regard. Ma
chinery is being set up for the appraisal of the state lands
preliminary to making a sale or exchange with the federal
government. Cong. Pierce has introduced a bill authorizing
the federal government to buy the state school lands in the
grazing area so theytmay be administered with the other pub
lic lands. Something needs to be done; and something will be
done &o the state will derive more from these lands than it has
b$en able to in the past.'
Oregon wants to cooperate with the federal government
in long-time plans for rehabilitation of the range. But there
is the problem of the immediate care of the lands. If they
are not leased the neighboring stockmen will graze stock on
them without making any payment. The Stanf ield lease will
bring in some return ; and unless the terms are violated, will
be in conformity with the standards being set up by the in
terior department. I
But the big problem is the blocking of the lands for bet
ter use and more economical administration. Oregon hopes
Mr. Carpenter will cooperate in solving that problem.

Stalin Exterminates His Foes
A few years ago when Lady Astor was visiting Russia she
asked Dictator Stalin, bluntly, when he was going to quit
killing people. The dictator somewhat taken aback by
the direct inquiry, stammered a reply that the killing would
continue "as long as necessary' The necessity appears to re
main, because, not only have there been many executions even
of the "old bolsheviks," jnen once high in communist councils,
but the dictator has boldly declared the purge must continue.
He said in a widely published speech i !
"It is quite clear these gentlemen (professional wreckers,
diversionists, spies and murderers) should be destroyed, exter
minated mercilessly as enemies of the working; class and ene
mies of oar country." i
Stalin concluded with pitiless brevity: "This is clear and
does not demand further interpretation." Indeed it does not.
The dictator of the USSR has served notice to the world and
to internal factionists as well, that any who j deviate from
complete submission to his will, to his "ideology," will be
ruthlessly exterminated, even as were the tsarists, the old no
bility, the intelligentsia of the early days of bolshevik rule.
The internal traitors to the regime, according to btalin,
areNthe Trotskyists. But if there are dissension and treason
in such high places then it reveals a singular failure of the
government to solidify public support after nearly 20 years
of power. Since the charge against the suspects is frequently
that of industrial sabotage, it reveals, if true, breakdowns in
the industrial organization and administration. And if these
charges are not true then Stalin's abuse of power through
the legalized assassination of his political opponents ranks
-With the worst tyrannies of history. Friends of the soviet ex
periment are hard pressed for answers in these days.
- License at Age 16 j
store for them. The recent legislature has moved the age
: requirement on issuance of drivers' licenses from 15 to
16. 'Now -see many jaws drop. These young Skeezixes will
have to wait another 12 months before they jean drive le
gally. . - - . . .
Which reminds us of a few years ago when the legisla
ture cut the age down from 16 to 15. News of the change was
carefully concealed from one 15-year old we knew; but he
would read the papers so one day there was a whoop and the
jig was up and when the law went into effect in June he went
over to get his driver's license. j
There is this softening of the blow for the 15-year olds
however. "Learners' permits" will be issued to persons age
15, good for 12 months. That lets the youngster drive provid
ed there is an adult in the car, which is still quite a ways from
the full freedom that youth now longs for.
The reason assigned for making 16 the minimum age is
to conform with neighboring states which have that limit;
and because statistics show that most drivers in accidents lie
within the 15-24 age limits, and it was believed that cutting
off one year might reduce the accident total.

. . .
(Continuing from" yesterday: )
The Lueier donation land claim
extended away above the east end
of the Newberg bridge. Lueier was
a good judge of land, and he and
his Indian wife were entitled to
640 acres, a mile square, but not
necessarily a square mile. That Is,
they could take it aa they pleased,
with numerous corners if they fan
cied like the one on Salem
prairie with' 36 corners.
The Lueier donation claim land
is the same as that of the Kaiser
bottom, or South bottom, or Mis
sion bottom. It is rich land.
.
It must hare been deeply under
water in the Hoods of 1861-2, and
1S90, and the other high Water
years. So was the site of the low
er Astor fort. The Astor called
the distance 29 miles from their
lower and upper forts. Not quite
so far now, by paved highway.
By the way, mission trail from
Campment du Sable to Cheraar
way ran by the lower Astor fort.
That is, from the sand encamp
ment to the place of the willows,
where was the Lee mission 10
miles by water below the site of
Salem. That Is, from Champoeg
state park to some hundreds of
paces above the Marion county end
of the Wheatland ferry.
S
Frank E. Osborn has found sev
eral relics "of the travel by that
trail, including an old fashioned
pistol with its wooden handle
partly rotted away, etc.
From 1834 on, everybody who
did not go by boat traveled that
trail including Indians and
whites, explorers and trappers,
and, later, settlers. Capt. Sutter
came that way. So did Slacum,
and Lieut., afterward Commodore
Wilkes. So did Lieut. Peel, son of
Sir Robert Peel. Great Britain's
great premier, whose visit here
was a gate that let out a third
war between our country and that
of our English cousins; but for
whose coming that conflict would
surely have eventuated.
The sand encampment was the
place where bateaus and other
heavier boats met land travel go
ing Into the heart of the Willam
ette valley.
It was where the machinery for
the mission mills was unloaded
to be hauled to Salem's site with
wagons; where the Hudson's Bay
company erected a warehouse at
which to receive and store for
shipment by water the grain, of
the early settlers.
. S
So. for a brief time old Cham
poeg was the largest town in Ore
gon, with a Masonic building,
hotels and stage stations, saloons
and gambling houses a real
pioneer metropolis, with perhaps
200 houses In all and every last
one of them washed down the
river in the flood of 1861-2.
In 1847, Thomas Cox started
with his stock of goods in 13 cov
ered wagons from Illinois to open
a store In Champoeg; but he
found business overdone there,
and so came to Salem and opened
the first store here diagonally
across from the present States
man building.

In the Issues of March 10-17
and 26-27, 1935, this column had
a review of the celebrated books
of Franchere, Cox and Ross, mem
bers with John Jacob Astor of the
Pacific Fur company which In
1811 founded Astoria, Oregon, by
erecting their fort and trading
post there. Each of the three books
told of the operations of the am
bitious enterprise, the first com
mercial undertaking by Americans
or even white men we6t of the
Rockies and north of the Spanish
(California) line,- excepting by
Russians in Alaska.
Referring to the year 1812.
Franchere had In -his book these
paragraphs:
. "a
"I . . . returned on the 16th of
November, to Astoria, where the
want of fresh provisions began to
be severely felt, so that several of
the men were attacked with
scurvy.
"Messrs. Halsey and Wallace
naving been sent on the 2 3d, with
14 men. to establish a trading
post, and Mr. McDougal being con
fined to his room by sickness, Mr.
Clapp and I were left with the
entire charge of the post at
Astoria."
W V
Everybody knows that the
clerks of the Astoriana. William
Wallace and J. C. Halsey, with 14
men, who left Fort Astoria Nov.
23, 1812, as Indicated, came to
near the site of what are now the
northern suburbs of Salem and
erected In the wilderness the first
building of white men In present
Oregon, or in the Pacific north
west, outside the vicinity of
Astoria.
It was the Astor fort, on laad
that is now the Bush farm, on
Wallace prairie, named for Wil
liam Wallace, one of the clerks.
Men called clerks in trapping cus
tom were the men fn charge; man
agers, responsible for the enter
prise Under the direction of the
clerks, the 14 men traded, hunted
and trapped that winter and, oa
the Willamette river, at a point
somewhat over a mile west of
their fort, they loaded Into boats
17 packs of beaver akins 13C0
of them and 32 bales of dried
venison and the precious cargo
arrived, at Astoria May 25, 1813;
some of the first fruits of the
Astoria enterprise to reach that
headquarters post, 1

The Supreme Court Decisions
THE Supreme Court, less than a
year ago, declared the New
York State minimum wage law
for women un
constitutional by
a five-to-four de
cision. Today by
a fiveto-four de
cision it declar
ed the Washing
ton mini mum
wage law consti
tutional. The
former decision
was hnaaJ nnAII
uotet&v Tbope a previous' deci
sion in the Adkins case, made in
1923 by a court whose personnel
was not identical with the present
one. A minority of the court last
year believed that the New York
statute was distinguishable In ma
terial ways from the Adkins case.
However, the Court of Appeals in
New York Itself had held the New
York act to be unconstitutional,
so that the Supreme Court was
upholding the decision of a state
court in regard to a state law.
Now, in sitting upon the Wash
ington case. It had to consider a
law which the Supreme Court of
that state had upheld as constitu
tional, the state court in Wash
lngon having refused to regard
the Supreme Court decision In the
Adkins case as determinative.
There was, therefore, the case of
the Supreme Court of a state be
ing in conflict with the Supreme
Court of the United States, and
this was certainly a reason why
the Supreme Court should recon
sider, especially as Us decision
had been almost universally de
plored throughout the country on
a perfectly non-partlcan . basis,
and the decision had caused the
suggestion of an amendment tQ
be written In the platform of both
political parties.
In ' no case, therefore, can the
changed decisioa of the Supreme
Court be regarded as yielding tp
partisan political pressure. :
. i
The most Interesting and en
couraging feature of the new de
cision is that It gives a fresh in
terpretation te the due process
clause of the. Fourteenth Amend
ment, an Interpretation which
may, by inference, be extended te
the Firth Amendment, The Fifth
Amendment restrain the Federal
government from depriving ettl
sens of life, liberty or property
without due process of law. The
Fourteenth Amendment restrains
the states in the same way. It has
been the contention of liberals
a contention which his column be
lieves to be sustained by ; many
court decisions that the due
process clause has . often been
used to protect property In a too
narrow sense of the term, treat
ing property a though Its owner
ship and management were com
pletely free from any social re
sponsibilities. The liberals on the
bench have consistently fought
for an Interpretation of the idea
of due process which takes ac
count of the fact that the growth
of finance capitalism and of the
modern 'corporation creates, a
modern kind of property with
vastly Increased economic power,
and. therefore, with rastly in
creased economic power,' and.
therefore, with vastly Increased
social responsibilities. The ma
jority decision today has a few
sentences of great value. It says:
"The. Constitution does not
speak of freedom of contract.
It speaks of liberty, and prohib
its the deprivation, of liberty'
without due process of law.. In
prohibiting that deprivation,
the Coaatltutfoa doea not rec
ognize aa absolute and uncon
trollable liberty. . . . The liber
ty safeguarded is liberty in a
social organization. ... Liberty '

under the Constitution is thns
necessarily subject to the re
straints of due process and to
regulation which Is reasonable.
... Liberty Implies the absence
of arbitrary restraint not im
munity from reasonable regula
tions." e
In commenting upon the major
ity decision last June this column
said:
"The majority argument Is dis
turbing. It is founded upon free
dom of contract and an eight
eenth century interpretation of
that - phrase. The same argu
ment was brought up against all
the protective legislation intro
duced fifty years ago in Germany
and England, but it has not been
heard elsewhere for a generation.
No modern interpretation of com
petitive economy include the
right to pay labor less than must,
by the very nature of things, be
paid to a machine! For machines
must be maintained! Competition
starts with rules, one cannot
inrow numan bones and blood in
to the scales. . . . The decision is
disturbing because of possible
public reaction . . . The great dan
ger exists that a revolt against
ine oecision will become a revolt
against the Supreme Court, which
for 150 years has helped to sta
bilise this Republic .... and re
publics are not. historically con
sidered, stronar fnstit
No republic can last without stan-
aaras, without some ultimate au
thority to which to appeal.'
. And it was on the basis of that
decision that this column ventur
ed a prophesy:
"We must lace the reality of
a crisis in government. If we
do not face it the Supremo
Court may be undermined di
rectly or, worse, by Indirection.
Indirectly for I n a t a n c , its
membership may be extended,
thereby turning it admittedly
into a political body.
That the Supreme Court Itself
has had . the courage to reverse a
previous decisioa oa the basis of
further- thought, knowing as It
did so that ft would throw itself
open to charges of yielding to
threat isaheartening thing.
There fs nothing new in It, Deci
sions hare been reversed before In
our history.
e
The Important thing about the
decision on the new Fraxler-Lem-ke
Farm Mortgage bill is that It
supports a contention which often
has been made by friend of the
made in this column, that legisla
tion more carefully framed with
a more respectful eye on the Con
stitution could accomplish the de
sired ends with no question of
constitutionality. In several pieeee
