Here is the dilemma of the treasury; the gold keeps com
ing. But the treasury cannot
paying interest on them indefinitely. 1 he obvious cure is to
lower its of ferine price, but this is considered a threat to
business because it might cause
ities and slow down exports. Another thmg, recall how by
the simple trick of devaluation the government made a profit
of $2,800,000,000. That looked easy, and that "profit" has
been "used" many times to cut down the deficits or to finance
stabilization or to justify heavy emissions of bonds. Suppose
now the government cuts the price of gold from $35 to $30
an ounce. This means the value of its 12 billions of gold
shrinks by $1,700,000,000, which makes a big hole in the pro
fit from the previous markup. So the government fights shy
of any scale-down in the price of gold. I
Meantime, the very lack of policy creates business unset
tlement. A mere rumor of revaluation gave the stock market
the shivers; the report that London had raised its price
proved a bracer on the stock exchange. A New York paper
quotes the managing director of a large European utility
concern as saying: "Monetary instability has become an in
exhaustible source of uncertainty and has done much to shat
ter the sanctity of contracts." That sentence tells the story.
Not only has dollar tinkering

Kellogg
FRANK B. KELLOGG, former secretary of state, whose
name goes with the Kellogg pact to outlaw war, has giv
en a half-million dollars to Carleton college at Northfield,
Minn., to establish a foundation for the study of internation
al relations. It is a remarkable gift to a small institution ; and
attests the deep sympathy which Mr. Kellogg has both with
education and with the problem of world relations.
Enormous grants have been made by men and women
of wealth to establish foundations for scientific research,
chief of which is the Rockefeller institute for medical re
search. The results of investigations by brilliant scientists
have mitigated the ravages of disease the whole world round.
Unfortunately no such swift benefit is probable from a
foundation which will study,
situations which are subject to controls. An improvement in
diet will do away with pellagra ; control of sewage and wear
ing of shoes will prevent disease from hookworm; killing off
mosquitoes of a .certain variety will do away with yellow
fever. These specifics operate so effectively that it is gen
erally possible even in backward countries to obtain the coop
eration needed. I I
But when it comes to the so-called social sciences, causes
and effects are mixed, often obscure, imposition or controls
over large groups of persons means to harness their emo
tions. Positive results cannot be guaranteed for following
pefific policies. So it is very, very hard to get nations to ad
here to the Kellogg pact for example, or to reduction of arm
aments, or to freer movement of goods in commerce, or to
reasonable treatment of minority or racial groups.
The college in its department of international relations
may hire able professors, build up fine - libraries. Studies
may assemble evidence pointing to very definite conclusions
as to the sources of irritation in international affairs and
point obvious solutions to discords. The impatient world de
mands action,, and may not be willing to wait for the labors of
the scholars. Action in world affairs rests not on the schol
ars but on the statesmen, the politicians, the lobbyists, on
the practical men in the fields of diplomacy. In this field it is
still difficult to make decisions based on the light of reason.
The Kellogg foundation should serve a useful function ;
but it is too much to expect that it will solve the grave prob
lems of human affairs in the

mWELVE department heads
X the Townsend organization quit their jobs last week at
. the Chicago headquarters. The ostensible reason was dis
agreement with Dr. Townsend over his voicing of opposition
Ho the president's court packing scheme. Dwight I Bunnell, a
Townsend representative, in Portland to do a job of plain or
fancy beheading of local recalcitrants, expressed the view
that the reason given was not the real reason. Bunnell is
probably correct in his surmise. The guess we would offer is
that the paychecks are getting a little smaller each month.
Dr. Townsend himself says that on his return to Chicago
lie finds insufficient funds to continue publishing the Town
send weekly. It's a safe bet that many who rose to high place
in the organization were attracted by the promise of good
paying jobs. When the income fell off and the boat com
menced to spring leaks they did just like rats generally do,
they left the craft. It will be difficult for the kindly withal
shrewd old doctor to plug the leaks- to keep his boat afloat.

Letter from the 6-9-37
Luckiamnte valley In
1846; one could name his

(Concluding from yesterday:)
King's Yalley was, of course,
named . for Nahum King, of the
1845 immigration.
The grist mill, built there by
Rowland Chambers of that im
migration, is stUl in business, or
was up to a late date. A.- H. Reyn
olds aided In bull J In g that mill,
in 1853-4. Reynolds constructed
the famous pioneer Ellas Buell
mill, Buell, Polk county, worked
on the pioneer woolen mill (first
on this coast) at Salem, promoted
and owned mills in eastern Ore
gon, founded the first bank at
Walla Walla, Wash., etc, and
his sons hare been among the
greatest, ablest friends of Whit
man college. Walla Walla.
The Lynnton of the 1846 letter
was Linnton, below Portland,
now in the limits of the metrop
olis. Meiks waa Stephen Meek,
brother of Joe Meek. Fort Bolslen
was Fort Boise. Fort Larlm was
Fort Laramie. The letter written
at the last named place waa of
coarse sent by messenger. No
U. S. malls here then.
"What the United States will
do for us I cannot telL Yon know
more about that than I do." That
meantthe Oregon question, "54
40 or fight," etc. Oregon was,
when the letter waa written, still
a no man's land. The interna
tional line was established be
tween Canada and the United
States July 15 of that year, 1846.
Even then, a long wait impended
for territorial government, then
for statehood. The pioneer Ore
gon settlers made their own laws,
land laws and others, through
their provisional government. And
it turned out that they were all
good, under future forms, terri
torial and state.

The famous Fort Hoskins of

King's Valley. More about this
Bite in a later issue.
Solomon King, son of the pi
oneer Nahum King, was 12 when
the family came via covered
wagon train in 1845.
"o "m
His father was born In New
York, married Sarepta Norton,
they moved to Ohio near Colum
bus. . There Solomon was born
Feb. 26, 1833. Nahum King en
listed at the home near Columbus
in the war of 1812. After that
war the f&milv moved tn ifYnnir-
lin county, Ohio, then to Carroll
county, Mo., in 1841. From there
the sart was made to Oregon in
1845.
The oldest King son, John, to
gether with his wife and two chil
dren, died on a raft of pine logs
while going down the Columbia
river with part of the 1845 im
migration that had taken the
Meek cut-off. Stephen, another
son, served in the Cayuse war,
1847-8, and died in November.
1854. These facts are given In
the Chapman history, 1903. That
books says of Solomon King:
-
"He worked hard to Improve
the land, . . . and when 21 years
of age had saved enough money
and had bright enough prospects
to Justify him In taking a wife In
the person of Maria King." She
was of course his brother Ste
phen's widow, mentioned hereto
fore. Solomon was elected on the re
publican ticket sheriff of Benton
county in 1872, having moved to
Corvallia and engaged In the liv
ery business. He was reelected
five times; a record for Benton
county.
W "U V
In 1886 he bought land near
which Oregon State college's main
buildings now stand. He acquired
other landed interests, engaged in
fine stock breeding and dairying,
etc., and gave, fortunes to his six
chUdren born to himself and
wife.
The King family wintered on
Gale's creek, near Forest Grove.
In 1845-6, and in the spring of
1846 went to the valley In Ben
ton county that was to bear Us
name. They were the first set
tlers of that valley.
V
Nahum King took a claim of
640 acres, as did Lucius Norton,
his son-in-law, and Rowland
Chambers. Two of the King sons
later took 640 acre claims each.
That is, with their wives, for half
of each donation claim of 640
acres belonged to the wife; hers
absolutely until she signed away
her right. If ever, or died.

arrived In King's valley there was
no sign or a schoolhouse, and
when plans were finally made for
the education of the rlsinr
ratIon, he helped to hew the
logs ana put in the slab benches."
(Tnere was of course no dim nf
a schoolhouse when the Kings ar
rived, for t h e v were th firt
settlers.)

"He himself Imbibed some knowl

center, but for the greater part
was dependent on his own re

Gale's creek, on which the
Kings first settled in the fall of

who runs tne

cause in Niles,
Ohio, the Unit

office hag a cou
ple of censors.
Their names are

and Mr. Payne.

organizing committee, which Is
conducting a strike against the
various affiliates of the Republic
Steel corporation. These gentle
men have told the assistant post
master, Mr. Bert Flaherty, accord
ing to his own report, that they
won't allow" packages of non
perishable food, or of clothing,
or of newspapers, to be accepted
for delivery to men who are still
working in the Republic plant,
and so Mr. Flaherty "regrets."
f Npw let's get this clear. This
column believes in trade anions.
This column believes that the in
dustrial union la, by and large,
the best form of organisation for
maas production industries. This
column believes that the closed
shop is advantageous. It believes
In all these things, subject to
genuinely democratic control. In
the union, and their willingness
to accept responsibility to collab
orate In efficient production, and
protect the public. But more than
it believes in these things, this
column believes in law, and . In
government by law. The post 'of
fice is not the property of the C.
I. O. or of any other trade union.
And it is fantastic and unique
that a private organization can
decide what shall or shall not be
sent through the United States
mail, and can actually send rep
resentatives to open packages and
give postmasters orders. The ac
tion is revolutionary.
I The way to It was paved by Mr.
Farley. Some days ago he an
nounced that he would forward
only ".normal" parcel post pack
ages to workers in the. factories
which are being; struck. The
ground for that remarkable deci
sion was that the post office de
partment does not want to take
sides! It was an amazing state
ment. We had not known, until
that moment, that it was the bus
iness of the post offrce department
to Intervene In any way in labor
disputes. There are laws prohib
iting the ' shipment of certain
classes of goods perishable food
stuffs, for instance, and obscene
literature through the United
States mails. But it is news that
any law covers the prohibition of
newspapers, which are otherwise
admitted to the mails, to specific
destinations. And It is news,
news unique in our history, that
trade union officials may open
mail and censor it. It Is the worst
news that the American people
have heard for a long time.
5 .-' -
' Quickly, very quickly, the peo
ple of the United States must de
cide what course they wish to
have pursued in the settlement of
labor disputes. Because the course
that Is being taken amounts al
ready to minor civil war, in which
the noncombatants are being ter
rorized' even as the com ba tan la
are. The Wagner labor relations
act, ironically designed to miti
gate the causes of industrial
strife, is eettinr us nnwhr Th.

mean the legalization of any
method whatsoever for enforcing
the recognition of its own mem
bership, as sole collective bar
gaining agency, wherever they
may try to organize. If that Is
the purpose of the act, the Eng
lish language Is singularly inex
pressive. The capitulation of the post of
fice to force, is only another step
in the breakdown of law. . Strik
ers and their allies have been
sniping at airplanes, bent on car
rying food to the workers In the
factories. Some reporters describe
strikers carrying rifles, and all
reporters agree that they are
armed with baseball bats and
home-made bludgeons, and that
the areas around the plants are
policed for blocks by strikers who
close the streets to every pedes
trian, whether concerned in the
dispute or not.
All this Is patently against the
law. No organization, except the
forces of government itself, haa
the right to close off streets. No
American citizen haa the right to
threaten another American citizen
with any weapon, whether It be
firearms or a brickbat. And In
the long run, no free people will
endure such invasion of civil lib
erties and basic rights, rather the
law mast be clear and function
Justly, - or we shall see In this
country the horrible growth of
vigllantiam.
Already, we have had In the
course of thia strike, one riot with
several fatalities, which occurred
when police fired upon picketers.
The police are altogether too
quick with their .guns. We saw
plenty of evidence of that in pro
hibition days, and It has been tra
ditional in labor disputes. Civil
ized democracies do not arm the
ordinary police with more than
nightsticks. But civilized com
munities also do not permit priv
ate citizens to arm themselves,
either with rifles, bombs, or base
ball bats. Industrial plants here
hare their own arsenals, guards,
armed private police. Now we are
beginning to see unions adopt the
same tactics. The end of this Is
chaos. If the police cannot shoot,
they must have unquestioned mor
al authority, and . that depends
upon general respect for law, and
its prompt Invocation. We shall
never be able to disarm the po
lice until the . moment when a
man who spits in the face of a
policeman goes to Jail for it. But
that means Judges who .are not
dependent upon the votes of or
ganized labor or organized capital.
All this vitally concerns the
little man, whatever his occupa
tion may be. For wherever law
is suspended, he, eventually, is
the victim.
Significant Is the bill which
passed the house of the Michigan
legislature last Wednesday by a
two-to-one vote and has the sup
port of Governor Frank Murphy.
It provides for the establishment
of a state labor relations board
and gives the governor power to
seize and operate strike-threatened
plants.
This, again, does not provide
for rule by law in labor disputes.
It establishes no principle applic
able to both capital and labor. It
hands over to the governor of a
great industrial state completely
arbitrary powers in case of labor
troubles. A supposedly libera
governor friendly to labor ap
proves the delegation of blanket
powers which might operate on
behalf of labor providing he him
self sits In the. governor's chair.
but which under other circum
stances might prove to be the
most dangerous weapon tor whole
Bale oppression ever permitted in
this country.
The bill indicates what, will
certainly happen on a large scale
if the rights and responsibilities
of both unions and Industries are
not more clearly defined In law
and the law then is partially en
forced. The Michigan measure Is
only another sign of how rapidly
this country Is moving away from
government by law toward gov
ernment by uncontrolled author
ities vested with enormous power.
It ought to be the first concern
of liberals to halt this tendency.
They ought to have the percipl-
ence to see from examples all
around them that such a course
always has the same end the
delivery of the independents, of
all minorities, of the unorganized
and the weak into the hands of
the powerful, the organized, and
the boss-ridden invested with po
lice powers and the capacity -to
enforce their wishes by laws of
their own making. But, instead,
the liberals too many of them
align themselves for or against
law, according to whether the law
serves, for the moment, the spe
cific interest with which they sym
pathize. And thus do they busily
forge the armament which once
completed wfll be used. In the first
line, against the liberals themselves.
