After weeks of counting,
New York City councilmanic
men and one woman will take" office January 1, replacing,
' under the new charter, the former board of aldermen. The
political complexion of the council is interesting. There are
fourteen democrats, one independent democrat, six Ameri
can labor party members, three republicans and two fusion
ists. The former board was neatly always overwhelmingly
democratic. Proportional representation has given minority
parties a substantial power in the council.
The method of voting and counting under PR (propor
tional representation) is interesting. The voter marks his bal
lot with numerals in front of
erence. The counting board groups ballots first by the No,
1 choices. Then, in the borough: of Manhattan count, those
with fewer than 2,000 -votes were eliminated. These ballots
were then counted for
2 choice on them. This
of the second chbices;
date was dropped, his ballots given on the next count to the
next order of preference. The final six out of the 47 candi
dates were declared elected.
The theory is that it gives minority groups representa
tion in some proportion, instead of having all seats go to the
one majority party. The counting experience was not very
satisfactory because of the delay and cost. Machines have
been perfected to do the chore, . and may be installed later.
Whether "the new council with its proportional representa
tion will work any better than the old board remains to be
seen. In view of the manifestation of renewed civic virtue in
New York City there is reason to believe the new council
will be an improvement. At least it has the spur of a cour
ageous and honest mayor in LaGuardia.
CIO Victory in Portland
The decisive victory of CIO in the Inman-Poulsen elec
tion in Portland Thursday explodes the theory that it was a
set-up between the employers and AFL, with the governor
to give it official sanction. The Oregon Voter which has been
as frank in dealing with the Portland labor situation as any
publication, very evidently anticipated an AFL victory and
commented last Saturday to the effect that governor and
employers were wtHing to accept AFL domination of the sit
. nation rather than prolong the shutdown. Perhaps the em
ployers and the governor are surprised at the result. The
workers themselves, however, made their own decision and
voted to stand with . CIO. Considering the fact they have been
out of work about five months, their vote is a remarkable
evidence of solidarity. u ;----..
The CIO victory is a crushing one against the demands
of AFL. For that body to persist in picketing and boycott is
to deny workers the right of self-determination which is
guaranteed te them by state and federal law, a right which or-,
ganized labor has acclaimed as- the "magna charta" for labor.
, The Statesman has been concerned not with the labels: of
the competing groups but with the enjoyment of freedom of
selection by the workers themselves. There is no more virtue
in denial of that freedom by a rival labor faction than there
is in its denial by an -employers' group.
The way opens for further elections in Portland mills;
or for their reopening under the CIO certif ication by the
NLRB. The continued; obduracy of the AFL leadership will
invite the blistering condemnation of public opinion and may
lead to drastic legislation. Labor endangers its own magna
charta" when it refuses to conform to the principle of self
organization by workers in a given plant or industry.
Spending and Safety on Highways
; The Walla Walla Union, another budget-balancer which
doesn't want the sacred cow of federal read appropriations
touched, advances the argument that "curtailment of funds
for highway building will put a decided crimp in the safety
record.".
To date the safety record stands at minus. Despite
the vast improvement iof highways the mortality pushes up.
We haven't the exact figures but strongly incline jto the be
lief that there have been more fatalities on the super-highway
from Oregon City through Milwaukie to Portland city
limits than there were on the narrow, winding blacktop road
which formerly carried the traffic, in the same number of
months of operation. This is one of the anomalies "which baf
fle the workers for highway safety. The. new highways seem
to tempt motorists to "lopen 'er up" beyond the limits of safe
ty. Driving fools will j kill themselves in spite of what the
" road engineers do to protect road users.
" - Kennedy to St. James
An Oregonian-Chilcago Tribune dispatch asserts that Joe
' Kennedy, selected to succeed Ambassador Bingham in Lon
don is the new heir apparent of Pres. Roosevelt. That sounds
silly; because an assignment to St. James is not a very good
preparation for a political candidacy. The service might equip
one with knowledge of foreign affairs (though London is not
' 'so good a school in diplomacy as it once was) ; but the period
'abroad keeps one out of touch with the American situation,
i Roman emperors used! to send their rivals to the provinces
'as proconsul; and the technique is still sound. 7
I - . It seems a nitv toi send a useful man like Kennedy into
!a job like foreign ambassador.

$ - Shipping Languishes
! Ocean Dorts are languishing on this coast. Grace liners
I have ceased calling ini California, and so have liners of the
Panama-Pacific line. Now the Dollar line round-the-world
boats will skip the California calls The coastwise service
along the Pacific is restricted now chiefly to freighters.
The reasons are various. Changes in subsidies, increases
in operating costs, competition of other means of transport,
and falling off of trade all contribute. So long have seaports
boasted of their maritime commerce it is shocking to witness
i its slow extinguishment The freight will still move, but the
1 great graceful liners now cut the waves of other waters.

It didn't take the Lane county court lone to find O. W. Clark,
president of State Gas Oil company, guilty of selline; securities
without a permit The result confirms the opinion of Corporation
. Commissioner Hailett who has been most diligent in protecting peo
ple of the state from operations of concerns dealing in .highly spec
ulate "oil leases" or deeds.
Senator Vandenberci Is aboat the only senator to approve of
Roosevelt's recommendation to slice road funds. He said it would be
! Inconsistent for him to advocate economy In the "abstract" and op
pose it in the "concretes." Other senators oppose road fond cats
for the 'concrete.
Thus far the special
session
paper predicted: nothing has been passed. It has. however, made
greater progress than was anticipated; and may serve to shorten
the regular' session by a few weeks. . ,

boards doing good
work in Texas; but the
idea is by no means new;
(Concluding from yesterday:)
Continuing the article in "Shaw
ows, Oregon prison paper: "We
know there are men among you
who are , there for doing things
any one of us out here might
have done particularly had we
been found in the same circum
stances attendant to your crimin
al act.
"It follows naturally that this
type of nan . must tome up for
consideration before the man
whose crime was less excusable,
and I believe each one of you, if
you will be fair, will agree with
me In this ....
m L
"In conclusion, let me say
this: there is not one man among
you who need believe he .has no
hope of receiving executive clem
ency. True, some of you will find
it very hard to win this chance
to reestablish yourselves in so
ciety, but that is r-ecause your
past deeds and attitude make you
a greater risk than some other
man.
"The more - deplorable these
past acts, the harder it will be
for you to merit your release on
clemency. But remember this:
whoever you are, whatever you
rave done, you can come back!
It is up to you alone."
".
Thus ends the article in "Shad
ows." As said in this column
yesterday, Minnesota a number
of years ago inaugurated a sys
tem similar to the one outlined in
the quoted article for Texas.
And . that state, enlightened
and well up to date in matters of
penology, found it good, in a ma
jority of counties or commun
ities. It depended upon the vol
unteer local parole board.
S V
A paragraph omitted from the
foregoing excerpts from "Shad
ows' reads: "Today, voluntary
county parole boards exist in 235
of Texas' 254 counties, and the
remaining 19 counties are ex
pected to make the organization
complete before the first of Jan
uary."
. Texas is a big -state in area, ap
proximately 800 by 800 miles in
extent. It had not up to recent
years or months been outstand
ing in ideals of modern penol
ogy. Like all the other southern
states it has. been expected that
prisons should be self support
ing or more some of them are
hundreds of thousands of dol
lars more each year.
S
But the closing sentences of
the article quoted have the right
ring in the way of sound Ideal
ism in this field. A self support
ing prison lis not necessarly one
of low ideals In the field of mod
ern penology. Work does not in
jure any able bodied man or
woman.
Texas has g6ne far, according
to the quoted article, in the di
rection of she -ing the chief ex
ecutive of power; and evidently
at the behest of Governor All-
red himself.
S
It eems dangerous, to this
writer, to go that far. There
must be, for unusual cases and
emergencies, some one clothed
with next to absolute power in
this field. Who more fitly than
tne chiet executive of the sover
eign state?
The statement that in Texas
80 per cent of the parolees find
jobs, with the help of the coun
ty parole boards. Is a most cred
itable showing, in favor of the
high efficiency of the boards, es
pecially in , these times of wide
spread unemployment among the
general body nt our people.
Oregon needs to take advanced
ground in matters of penology;
the kind guaranteed by the con
stitution framed by our pioneer
fathers, the 15th paragraph of
the Bill of Rights of which reads:
"Laws for the punishment of
crime shall be founded ' on the
principles of reformation, and
not of vindictive Justice."
That is like the Golden Rule
or the Diamond Rule, or the
Eleventh Commandment, or the
principles of the Sermon on the
Mount of the Christian religion.
or the rule governing the af
firmative answer to the first re
corded social question of hiistory.
"Am I my brother's I aeper?"
No one would amend cne of trese
rules; yet none other than a vry
few saintly persons observes them
in spirit and In truth, or ever has.
No man can say truthfully that
Oregon lives up to that para
graph Of her constitution. Yet
no sane man would vote to re
peal It.
S
Oregon violates It flagrantly
every day, and has violated tt ev
ery hour since the time. It was
written and the day it was
adopted.
Pour men were checked out of
the Oregon state penitentiary on
Monday morning last went out
of the guarded , front gate and
down State street with 35 in
money each and a suit of clothes
provided by their state.
"..'V .
That is almost the average for
each week day in the year. The
four were likely looking young
men; with clear faces and steady
steps. But where are they now?
What have they found to do, in,
this time when many men are
out of employment?
To whom, -to what nlu-11 they
turn? -
. . v
Oregon needs the spirit of the
new Texas law,- of the Minneso
ta law, taking care in intelligent
and . decent and . human ways of
the ; men who go down ' State
street r from the Oregon prison
every week day In the year.
Oregon has natural advantage
to become a better state la the
field of penology than either Tex
as or Minnesota. She is behind
most of our sisterhood of states.

And what of the one or two
or three or four or more going
out each week day since, . and to
travel down State street in the
week days of the unwinding fu
ture? P. S. Every system of county
or community parole boards will
depend tor success or failure up
on the men and women who
make up the- membership of
each.

Aiken of Vermont
Gives GOP Advice
WASHINGTON, Dec. lO-P)-Gov.
George D. Aiken, a weather-beaten-
Verm-Hiter, stepped into
the middle of the national politi
cal scene Thursday and gave the
republican party this tip:
"Millionaires and college pro
fessors never won elections."
The governor, who drew nation-wide
' attention earlier this
week by advancing a "purge" of
the republican leadership, arrived
tn the capital to oppose the ad
ministration's regional planning
bill.
He talked with reporters at a
press conference, where he sat be
tween Senator Gibson and Austin,
republicans from his state, and
later ' conferred with National
Chairman John D. M. Hamilton.
Governor Aiken told reporters
that most of the names he had
seen mentioned for membership
on the committee were those of
millionaires or college professors,
and added: "They neverwon elec
