Convention at SO torn with factional differences were the young demo crats meeting at North Bend that they didn't even agree on a "platform." For once a group of politicians assem bled without groaning in chorus over conditions; which they "viewed with alarm," or collectively chanting a hymn of nraisp as thev "rminted with Bride" One cause of the lack bf platform may have been inability to prognosticate whether ' the president planned to zig or to zag. There were some who wanted to zig with him on the supreme court question; but the zaggers held them back. Maybe it is just as well no plat form was adopted, even one calling for a "clarifying amend ment," because nowadays a platform is nothing but a raft to carry politicians ashore on. 1 The real battle at North Bend was over Oregon's own "Little Jim" Farley, W. L. (Pinky) Gosslin, the governor's secretary. Gosslin is eager to do the party chores, build up a strong party organization, which will not only fight at elec tion time, but look after the distribution of the loaves and fishes when the election is won. As chieftain of the party subsidiary, the Young Democrats, Gosslin wants to- have its officers friendly to him. But other democrats, young and old, do not like Gosslin. The brotherly love business fades when stfiey think of him, and ties of partly loyalty get a fearful wrench as they contemplate his" manipulation of the YD af fairs. So they writhed at North Eend as they saw Pinky's Pet Parade perform and retain its control. George McLeod, gift ed orator from Willamette, nominated Allan Greenwood, the candidate of the Gosslin faction for president. The combined efforts of National Committeeman Latourette, of young Wal ter Tooze (he must be a maverick, with that name, and a democrat), and Ray Martin opposing candidate of Eugene; plus the other anti-Gosslin demos were unable to stop the processions, so Greenwood swept to victory; and the Gosslin machine retained its grip on the YD's. I Whether they like Gosslin or not, he still is in power in the organization. Despite a 1935 law creating the office of "executive secretary" Gosslin is still private secretary to the governor. A strong partisan, and lacking in skill in "public relations" Gosslin is a young man of intellectual force, clean, and with a commendable devotion to public service. It does seem sad, however, to contemplate ; Strife and Dissension among the followers of the new deal, who ought to be Children of Sweetness and Light. - . j Ambassador to Norway 1 ANOTHER woman goes to Europe in a high diplomatic ap pointment. She is Mrs. Borden Harriman, who will be come ambassador to Norway. She will be the only wom an in that rank. Mrs. Ruth Bryan Owen was minister to Den mark. While at her post she fell in love with a Danish officer, married him, later resigned and lives in Denmark, retaining, however, her American citizenship. . V Mrs. Harriman, long a widow, has been one of the social leaders of Washington, her salons rivaling, on the democratic side; those of Mrs. Alice Roosevelt Longworth. . She might have had a position earlier, except that she backed the wrong horse (Newton D. Baker) in 1932. Not being in the B. C. (Before Chicago) company, she had to do penance four years. Final atonement was made at Philadelphia where she was a strong supporter of Mr. Roosevelt. j Now she will go to Norway where her knowledge of pol itics and her skill at handling political big shots should stand her in good stead. Since Norway went for woman suffrage early she should I be welcomed. The present ambassador at Oslo, Anthony J. Drexel Biddle, jr., of Philadelphia, is trans ferred to Warsaw as ambassador to Poland. He is a topflight aristocrat from Philadelphia whose business deals were so shady they brought him into bad fame. The president ignored 'the protest and gave him the appointment as ambassador. If American j diplomacy in republican days was accused of being shirt sleeve diplomacy, now it may be charged with being silk stocking, what with Robert Bingham at London ; Bill Bulitt (another Philadelphia socialite, though somewhat renegade) at Paris; Biddle at man in Norway. On Silver TUHEN a person reads the specifications on the new super W clippers that the Boeing factory in Seattle is making for Pan-American airways he can't help but balloon his cheeks and open wide his eyes. He feels like the man who saw his first giraffe and declared there was no such animal. Look at these figures: wing spread, 150 feet; length of plane, 109 feet; number of decks, 3; cruising range, 5000 miles ; speed, 200 miles an hour ; capacity, 72 passengers, 5000 lbs. of freight, and 15 tons of fuel; crew, 8; cost $500,- ooo. -;. - ; .--... j . y The motors (four for each plane) are being built by the Wright corporation. They cost $13,500 apiece and each has 1500 horsepower. A companion-way on the wing will permit access to each motor while the ship is in flight. (Think of re pairing a dead motor, three miles up, at 150 m. p. h.) Time no longer marches on ; it flies on silver wings. . In old Salem (Mass.) two women who attended a wrestling match became so partisan that the next day when they met in the street they engaged In a bout all their own. They palled each other's hair, then went Into a clinch and rolled In the street, until the po lice Interfered and sent both to the hospital. They couldn't hare done that In the -good old days. Then the popular Sport was not wrestling, but hanging agitated females on the gallows as witches.) j After testifying again In some of the Angelus temple litigation Sister Almee "promptly went outside and fainted for the second time in three days." A court bailiff caught her In his arms and received a talisman rose from her corsage. After that happened probably the corridor was lined with'males with their arms curred for a heavenly catch."- . ' ,. : . 1 - Pennsylvania has repealed one of the. old blue laws, so now It Is no longer unlawful to go fishing In that state on Sundays. This was the last state to wipe out such a statute. In some of the colon ies It wasn't lawful for a man to kiss his wife on Sundays. Now the wives and the fish both get a break. 1 New York has passed a law like our own "gin marriage law. It prohibits (except with court permission) marriages to be solem nized until- 72 hours have elapsed from the issuance of the marriage license. It does seem that abiding love ought to endure three days at least. A Sacramento women testified that her husband came home at an early hour one morning, with lipstick on his shirt which was not her brand. She got a divorce. Learn the brands, fellers. ! : - - ;r A high pressure area Is expected, to give Portland good weather for the opening of the baseball season today.

Bits for Breakfast By R. J. HENDRICKS Old man river i 4-20-17 needs harnessing: ; years when "Willamette : achieved highest marks: 1 An Inquiry comes to this desk: "Where did yon get your infor mation concerning the ' official records of high water In the Wil lamette, running back to the flood of 18S1-2T- ,: . . It was furnished by Ben : L. Campbell. U. S. engineers, head quarters Portland, his department being charged with investigations preliminary to making plana for conserving water in the Willam ette valley in rainy seasons, one of the primary objects being flood control. , .-. ' V V ; . Mr. Campbell was working around Salem during August last. The figures he furnished the Bits man "were published in the issue, this column, of Saturday, August 15, 193S. Since that time, some new in formation concerning periods of high water in the Willamette have come to this desk. This in formation goes back to 1813. How do we know? m Well, on Feb. 9. 1843. Rev. Gustavus Hines, Methodist mis sionary, left his home, now stand ing at 1325 Ferry street, Salem, on official business, for the Lee mission 10 miles by river below, thence to Oregon City. He went by boat. Hines wrote a book. In its pages he recorded the fact that when he got back as far as the present Champoeg he found the Willamette in flood stage with the highest water for 30' years. "m That goes back to 1813, and we also know the river was high that year on account of a published statement of one of the members of the John Jacob Astor party. It was so high at the lower Wil lamette Astor fort, about a mile above the present main building of the Champoeg state park, that the men in charge there early in 1814 contemplated moving the fort to the other side of the river and over two miles higher np on the site of the present Newberg. Above danger from high water. If the river was very high back of 1813, we have no knowledge concerning It from a white man though two white men had been in what is now western Ore gon since 1805 Francis Rivet and Baptiste Deloar, coming with Lewis and Clark, and remaining here to become settlers. They may or may not have seen the Willamette river before 1813. The writer thinks they both had. De loar and his Indian wife became the first white settlers in the Wil lamette valley; in what are now virtual suburbs of Salem. S V Well, that's two high water pe riods, 1813 and 1843, with no of ficial records, for up to that time this was no man's land, occupied jointly since 1818 by two govern ments, coveted by five, owned by none. We have official record for the flood of 1861-2. The Willamette was 39 feet high then last days of '61, first days of '2. Same as to 1890, Feb. 3, when It was 37.1 feet high. V There was high water In 1923, and the official record is 33 feet. Same as to 1927, with the offi cial record 32.2. These official records are all for Salem. There was high water here in 1882, and a mark was made at 36.5; hut this is not official. There wss deep snow followed with high water in 1852-3. but no official record was made. V The stage of the Willamette river on Friday last, April 16, reached a crest of 22.4. That is of ficial. That Is probably as high as the river has been In the month of April, for a long time. It was cansed by heavy and warm rains, with much snow melting in the high mountains. The highest floods, of 1861-2 and 1390,-came with hard and warm rains and also deep snow not only in the mountains bnt on the leveL The Willamette will perhaps never get around the 37 to 39 foot stage without melting snows both on the level and fur ther back, as well as hard and warm rains. But these may come any year, and the later they coma, it they ever do come, before con servation Is achieved, the greater will be the loss and destruction. - a We have far fewer river boats to help than we had in 1861-2 or in 1890, and the amount of prop erty on lower levels has increased vastly. Let us all pray that the day of disaster may be put off until the plans for conservation shall have been worked out. ... , Then Irrigation water will be available during the fastest grow ing season for every thirsty acre in this great valley; boats will run at all seasons In the year from Eugene and above to con nect with ocean going vessels In the lower reaches of the Willam ette and the Columbia, and the menace of destructive floods will be forever past. - Then the cheapest of all trans portation will connect Willamette river points all the way up with the markets of the world. - In that time this valley will support in comfort 20 to 30 times as many people as now live here, Besides making this valley safe from .floods, giving water throughout all seasons to every thirsty acre and furnishing a safe stage for boat and barge during the 365 days of the year, conser vation will help harness all the water powers of valleys, hills and mountains, to drive the millions of wheels of industry and light all the ways of travel, work, study ana recreation. A New $ ) V Vo ltwt.Bi h. s-aOMH eUL . gil&$ij!& Interpreting By MARK WASHINGTON. April 16 Be ginning Tuesday, the administra tion will hold a conference of la bor leaders and industrial lead- era (to g e t h e r with persona representing the public interest). The purpose is to lay out a fu t u r e program about labor re la 1 1 o n s. As phrased by Sec retary of Labor Perkins, the ob ject is "to deter mine the wisest i '- I Mrk SalllYU procedure . that can be mutual- ly agreed on" for carrying on "in dustrial relations under collective bargaining." Miss Perkins calls it a "conference." That is ap propriate. That is the word -used when victor and vanquished come together. In this case, the victor consists of two allies, labor and the administration John L. Lew is and President Roosevelt. The vanquished is industry. With re spect to the issue of collective bargaining. Industry comes to this conference much as the Germans came to Versailles It comes to sign whatever terms the victo rious allies impose. Industry, so far as it has resisted labor, has been about as thoroughly beaten as any combatant can be. The war came to an end with the re cent decision of the supreme court on the Wagner labor act. by which decision, as Miss Perkins accurately puts it. "collective bar gaining 4s established as the law of the land." On the eve of the conference in which the vanquished must ac knowledge defeat, it is appropri ate to review the war. It began early in the administration. It was symbolised, as important trends are often symbolised, by a phrase. Actually, this was less than a phrase it was a word. In deed, it was less than a word, it was a single letter the letter 'r," which, properly placed makes the difference between "of" and "for." Miss Perkins, soon after she became secretary of labor, said she thought the title of her office ought to be secretary (ital ics) for (end italics) labor. Throughout her tenure of office, she has held to that conception of her function. Labor baa been the ward of the administration; industry has been regarded as the common adversary of labor and the administration. An early statutory declaration of the administration's purpose about labor was embodied in NRA and became famous as Section 7-A, of which the essential prin ciple was: "Employees shall have the right to organize and bargain collectively through representa tives of their own choosing . . ." For- reasons too complex to state here. Section 7-A did not work welL Even labor and the administration admitted that. Within a year, even while NRA as a whole was still in effect, it was recognized that 'Section 7-A would not do: and Senator Wag ner, on behalf of the administra tion, was writing a new charter for labor. When NRA was found unconstitutional by the supreme court on May 27, 1935, Section 7-A, of course, went with it. But Senator Wagner's new charter was practically ready. It was en acted, as a separate statute, on July 5. 1935. Few except lawyers and others directly concerned understood what the Wagner act was. Not that the Wagner act is obscure it is perfectly clear. Nearly every body assumes that the Wagner act was a measure to arbitrate la bor controversies. It was nothing of the kind and did not purport to be. The Wagner act waa a declara tion, to effect, that all bargain ing between labor and employers "Nine" Takes the ri t. m. a se m n i ii mm -ri. a - - - Hgsusugrass;" mil .:: r" V'i , - -1 - -' the News SULLIVAN must be collective; that in every plant must be a union, and that this union shall be the exclusive bargainer for all the labor in the plant. And the Wagner act so de fined unions to outlaw what are called "company unions," or "workers' councils" or other local unions set up with the approval of employers. Every employer must make his contracts through a representative of a union which has an interest adverse to the employer, which sita on the other side of the table from the em ployer. On the unions the Wagner act put no obligations. It is on employers that the Wagner act put all its obligations. And the employer who fails in any way to live np to the practices prescribed by the act is subjected to heavy penalties. To enforce its provisions, the Wagner act set up a national la bor relations board. Nearly every body thought this was a board with a judicial function intended to arbitrate disputes between la bor and industry. It was nothing of the kind and did not pVetend to be. The labor board was an institution having the official power that goes with government, whose function was to act in the Interest of labor. It was for la bor, and against employers. Em ployers came into contact with the labor board only as persons accused, as defendants. The battle between Industry, and, on the other hand, labor and the administration as allies, was fought out in two arenas, before the courts and before public opin ion. Before public opinion, indus try got a "break." for labor al most lost its own fight when it practiced the sit-down strike. Be fore the courts, industry was su premely confident of winning so confident that it did not pre sent its cases as well as It now wishes it had. Industry, and in dustry's lawyers, took if for grant ed the Wagner act was unconsti tutional. In this confidence. In dustry came to Waterloo in the supreme court. Before labor won Id the su preme court, it had already achieved an Immense victory, in the shape of capitulation by the United States Steel corporation. For the first time In the history of this or any other Important steel company, it recognized a union, Mr. John L. Lewis CIO. In the long struggle, Mr. Roose velt, once at least, wobbled a lit tle. In a, threatened strike in the motor industry in 1934, he re ceded for a while from the prin ciple of exclusive bargaining by one union. At all times, especial ly during the presidential cam paign, he had to watch his step, to avoid getting between the fire of two labor organizations, C. L O. and A. F. of L. What now faces Mr. Roosevelt is what often faces one or two allies after vic tory, whether he can restrain la bor from Insisting on impossible objectives. (New York Herald-Tribune Synd.)
