Madrid and Addis .Abbaba and Shanghai and Nahking are samples of the4 ruin bombs dropped Irom planes may wreak. Every effort is made to devise ways and means for defense against aerial foes. Cellars of refuge, anti-aircraft guns, powerful searchlights, pursuit planes, draping nets, all are conceived or developed to ward off the fleets of en emy planes that may drone overhead. i I Another form of aerial attack is developing. We have become familiar with it in politicaj campaigns. It Is the - voice coming over the air. Recently it looked as though civ ilians would need to hunt storm cellars to escape the aer iaf bombs being dropped by Mr. Jackson and Secretary flckes. - But the aerial combat proceeds now on a far wider range. ;The address of President Roosevelt to the congress was broadcast, over the national networks. Since it is a report on ine State Oi. Uie uauuu, It WiUt appiu laabe; luai niuc luaaw- ination should be given his words. But the broadcast didn't stop there. It was put on short wave for transmission round the .world. Pernaps it was believed that our citizens in Samoa and Hawaii and in Porto Rico .ought to hear the speech of. the great white father. But the broadcast didn't stop there. Salient passages were translated into German and Italian and Spanish and Portuguese and short; wave transmitters aimed at nations which speak these languages. I In this respect America was just imitating the new aer ial bombing of fascist! powers. It is said that short wave propaganda has been directed from certain bases, especially Italian, aimed at some of the dependencies of the British empire. From Barithe Italians are broadcasting Abdul Wa hab, the "Bing Crosby of theNear East," hoping his crooning will stir upJhe fires of revolt against the British. Now the British are countering; with propaganda by short wave." j People will need to refine their auditory faculties. They; will - need to put filters on their ears, so that only the truth will get through the mesh. Otherwise they will be short-waved .into hysteria. ' v ? ! j Salary Tops s ! The scandal .sheet for 1S6 was made public- Saturday, showing that 16 people drew in salaries over $300,000 apiece. What they have left after they pay their federal and state income, taxes the report doesn't say, but $300,000 is a lot bf money. A man drawing $2,000 per annum would have to work 150 years to get that much money. f 5 The question arises, are these men and women? worth the money? Mr. Sloan, for instance got $561,311 from Gen eral Motors. Was he worth it? Stockholders would probably hesitate before firing Mr. Sloan,on the ground he was over paid.

There again the high rewards go to the folk at the top, while the extras and supers and rejects barely squeeze out a living.; Many a "ffirl in the studio emnlovment waitincr room is sure she is as good as Claudette; Colbert ($350,833), but Claudette is the one who pulls the; money in across the little shelf at the box office. The public wasn't as eager for Mae West's "lines" in SS and her 4ncome dropped to $323,333. Hundreds will deny that Rudy Vallee learned the $238,744 he drew down! but some one evidently thought not have gotten it ' - - v : . i : f In the abstract and in the, concrete it is probably true that these high salaries are out of Tine; and the world would get pretty good entertainment; and pretty good motor I cars if the salaries were reduced. But leadership usually gets the high rewards, whether in -money, in fame, or in votes. No one picks bouquets of dandelions, ;but orchids sell for "a dollar apiece.- i v -"' . Pinball Decision I As Assistant Attoraey General Moody says, the supreme court -decision Tuesday tolls the funeral bells for slot ma chines and pinballs. It gives them clear classification as lot teries which are under constitutional prohibition in this ttate. The decision will give impetus to the Walter Tooxe move to amend the constitution so that pinball devices may be licensed; but the people win doubtless attend to that. 3 The decision by Justice Belt carries tiie frank admission that the court acts on general knowledge : "Be that as it may, the court may be assumed to Jcnow what evrrybodj knows' and we have no - hesitancy in saying that various types ; of slot machines .have become, widespread pestil ence. "The court also recognized the natuTe of the devices which were being operated : "Such machines are constructed to win and they do win." The player has no fair opportun ity to win when Ac bucks tlot machines or pinball cames. The court tore aside the thin - "To say that the operaUon ot iitaball maduaer-or Hot iaa cklaes Involve any aabstaatlal dSTe oi Jndrnwnt or ikiH e irerely Btralnt the credulity of any Teasooable-mladed perwrn." i'i Because the devices purely or chiefly depend on chance they are put under the ban as lotteries. . - I ; The court evidently left: a bridge -for pari-mutuel bet ting, on horse races, however, when it reiterated its former language that "not all forms of gambling are lotteries." Lack ing that the pari-mutuels might be ruled out as lotteries. ; This decision should end the pinball agitation that has raged forseveral year&7 " involving cleanups, litigation - and legislation. The enactment of referred Martin and Carney bills will make enforcement more effective;; but there i3 plenty of law now. All that is needed is backbone among enforcement officers. ' ' Newspaper Subsidies - ' i s The president brought up the "subsidy" given newspa pers in transmission through the maHsV Weekly papers are distributed free in the county of publication. Second class rate3 of postage are much lower than those of- other classes of mail, but papers are in the - position of "wholesale" users of mails. , - , . . . ! There is - no need to defend any subsidies to papers from the government.- They are not subsidies to the papers so much a3 to the subscribers, for the mail subscription price is usually cheaper than the carrier , delivered price, reflect ing the lower cost of distribution. Most daily papers use tne mausm oniy a . umitea trucks or stages for distribution, principally because of the time element. ' - . - , ! If the government revises its second class rates; so as to derive more revenues from1 this class of service it should also abolish tt frank which is the source of irreat loss and considerable abuse; and the papers should insist .that the cavernment pay for the notices it jiow gets the papers to run free: notices ahout recruiting, about -cml service exam inations, postoffice and mails, etc On that deal the papers vrculd be ahead.- . . fegitatesTaatt . ...

HENDRICKS Jasoa Lee 100 years 1-12-33 ago eettlas ready for ; trip that brought about the founding of this city: . V S (Continuing from yesterday:) Readera of this column know that Joseph tfolman of the Peoria par ty did not reach fort Vancouver that year, 1839. Also that he ar rived there June 1. 1S40, hungry, footsore, almost naked, and penni less made the last lap of the journey on foot. r Also that the "great reinforce ment" of Jason Lee, on the Lau sanne, arrived there the same day and that, in watching the land ing,' young Holman i saw Ahnira Phelps, one of the mission teach ers, coming, down the gangplank, and pointed to her as his future wife. And that, though this was his first sight of her, his wishful prediction came true. - - S S They became leaders in the Til lage that developed Into Salem. Their grandson, Joseph Albert, ot the Ladd & Bush Trust company, la a sample of that pioneer clan. Mr, Holman was prominent in many forward looking enterprises of Salem's early days; the linseed oil mills, etc., etc He erected and owned the Holman I building, : on the corner north of the present Statesman building, la which for years the territorial and state leg islatures met, and in which was the third theater of the capital city, etc., etc. . .- : - S From Peoria Jason Lee and his four Indian boys (having left Tom to recover his health) went toward the then straggling Tillage of Chi cago. Here is what he wrote in his diary about that Tillage: "Oct. 8. Had an interesting time in Chi cago. . Collection 1 4 0.3 5" Pretty good for the shanty town with muddy streets of that day: The diary for Detroit reads:; j "Sunday, 21. Steamboat re mained a few hours in Detroit, and in the meantime I went ashore, and was almost compelled to address a -small congregation assembled for worship.! They had no previous intimation that a cot lection would be taken up, and I should have thought 110 a liberal collection for such an assembly under such circumstances, but the result was $30." Says Brosnan:. i "One week later Lee arrived at Ctica New York. Here his com pany of Indian boys was reduced to three. At the near by town of Fairfield one of the Indion boys, William C. McKay, was enrolled in a medical school situated there." He became a famous physician, at and near Pendleton, Oregon; known an over the Oregon of his day. Dr. McKay was ever a dis tinguished looking man, with princely carriage. The name was never pronounced as though the a in Kay were ttke a in cage. The ay in Kay was like 1 in high. Any man' who knows French Prairie will confirm this. A town and a creek are named for Dr. McKay. Quoting from-Mc Arthur's Oregon Geographic Names:; i S S "McKay, Umatilla county. This postoffice was named-McKay be cause of its proximity to McKay creek and because of V desire to honor Dr. William C. McKay. See under McKay creek, i "MeKay creek, TJmatnla county. Thli stream rises on the western slopes of the Blue mountains and flows Into the Umatilla river just west ol Pendleton. 1 1t was named, for Dr. William McKay, who was born at Astoria in 1824 and died in Pendleton in 18 S3. He settled near the month of McKay creek In 1851-2, and caUed the place Hou tana. Dr. McKay was the son of. Thomas McKay." . There la also a McKay creek In Crook: county.' Says MeArtfaur ot It: The stream is, In the north western part of -the county. It was named for Donald McKay, a weU known scout In the Indian trou bles in central Oregon, who took a conspicuous pan In ; the Modoc' war. -; ' "He was a son ef Thomas Mc Kay an& a grandson ot Alexander MeKay, wo was Mown np with the Astor ship Tonqum at Cloyo 4ot soand tn Jane. 1111. Thomas McKay came to Oregon with his father in 1811. Alexander Mc Kay's widow subseouently was married, to Dr. John JlcLoaghUn and came to Oregon. Thomas Mc Kay was married twice. Br. "Wil liam McKay, was a child of the first marriage, and Donald .McKay of the second." A And there is at least a third McKay creek in Oregon. Here is what McArthur saya of tt! ' "McKay creek, Washington county. This stream drains a con siderable area north -ot Hillsboro. It was named tor Charles McKay, a pioneer settler, who took np -a donation land claim nearby." -w- v And there is a McKay 4am, Umatilla county. ; McArthur says: "McKay dam is so called because it dams McKay creek . . . McKay dam is part of the Umatilla recla mation project and is located, sev en miles south ot Pendleton. The dam was built for the purpose of storing water In McKay creek and Jthe reservoir created by the dam nas ,a capacity of about 73.000 acre feet. This water will be used toaupplement the natural flow of Umatilla river for, irrigating 38, 000 acres of land near Echo,.Stan field and Hermiston." s s Brosnan says Jason Lee, "with William Brooks, the Chinook In dian boy and the two remaining McKay boys, John T. and Alexan der, pushed forward toward his destination," and Oct. 31, 1838. "arrived safely in New York City.. He says that on December 5. 1838, the Methodist mission board "approved plans for calling for an appropriation of J40.000 for the Oregon mission . . . . The board also voted a generous amount for farm machinery, equipped for the construction' of mills, garden seeds, and an appro priation ot 15000 tor merchan dise." (Concluded tomorrow.)

Time passes slowly to some folks. To others swift as shadows fade, And there seems to be no reason, . Except that tis the way we're made. The weather during a week or 10 days preceding this writing, which is that day of the week known In song and story as .wash day, has not been of a sort favor able to good nature.

Like other stories of this character, the listener or reader is under no ob ligations, moral or otherwise, to believe it. "Boy ot the Streets," Jackie Cooper's first bid for adult star dom, which has been piling the bicycles in front ef the Grand this week, may be a trifle too sugges tive of Horatio Alger, jr. There are- aome grave-faced folks who have this to say of It. But this of course is nothing to be held against the film, unless it be that the story is simple and straight forward and perhaps adjusts Itself too easily to that which the writer wishes it to adjust itself to, which from my point of view is more of a virtue than a weakness. Jackie gives a creditable performance, and. Mar jorie Main, who attracted favorable notice here some time ago by her work m "Dead End," is fine. But the brightest spot In the cast is accorded 'to Maureen O'Connor, who sipgs Irish songs beautifully. A newcomer to the films, this girl, and there are few who heard her who will not wish to hear her again. DREAMS THAT COME The reader may be familiar with Robert Pollok, the poet. I am not. I know only that he lived in Scotland In the early days of the 19th century, and I Infer that he waa sot overly careful of his diet, because he had terrible dreams. In- one of these dream h saw a sinner toppling upon the . perilous edge ot Hell tn dreadful apparition saw before his vision pass the shadows of the damned; and saw the glare of hol low, cursed eyes spring from the skirts of the Infernal sight; and saw the souls of wicked men, now dead, by devils hearsed into the fiery gulf. And sometimes, too, before his fancy passed, he caw the Worm that never dies, writh ing Its folds in hideous sort . . . It is not difficult to infer from these lines that when Mr. Pollok had a dream he had one. He gives further Retails ot this dream. But enough is enough. Perhaps too much. Dreams, differ as. dreamers dif fer.' If it be true that dreams are sub-conscious echoes of a former existence, as some theorists say, this Pollok dream does not. of course, qualify. My personal opin ion In the matter, which is per haps entitled to as much credit as some other opinions, is that dreams as they average are only the resultant effects ot sugges tion, associated , with one mental impression or another that has happened, to ns in our everyday existence --':: J- ' ; Thus, during one long ago win ter, 1 read a book describing . the adventures in failing to find ' the north pole ot an Englishman whose name was Halk Many in trepid spirits (they were usually referred to; as Intrepid spirits) endeavored to reach ihe north pole in those days, - but none of them accomplished more by their efforts than the attainment , ot material for boows and lectures. The Hall story made a vivid im pression upon me. It was filled with narrow escapes Irom direful, fates, and was ao interesting la a ahivery, ahuddery, dark and dis ?9 -6 heartening way. Memory returns to me ot a night of extreme cold, when after having kicked and wiggled a warm spot in my bed I dreamily assisted Hall in an effort to gain a few yards in his poleward jour ney. Students of such' things tell us that the longest dreams require but a minute or two, but it seemed to me in this" dream that I had been In a horrible region of ice and snow and savage polar bears and bewildering aurora borealis for weeks. Then some blessed thing wakened me, and I found that my feet were exposed to the temperature. A readjustment ot the bed clothing remedied the situation at once. I could recall many such in stances. One night in early sum mer, following a day spent in rid ing on a train in and out of that beautiful country, which at that time ot year was, and Is, I pre sume, especially lovely, southeast ern Minnesota, I dreamed that I became lost in a field of corn. It appeared an ordinary field of corn when I entered it; but. presently it became a. maze, stretching in terminably on all sides. Naturally, after rushing frantically here and there between the rows for what seamed hours, I became aomewhat alarmed, the more .so because the corn was making a peculiar mum bling sound, suggestive ot words. As in the other instance, some thing wakened me, and I was vast ly relieved. That dream was oc casioned by a man In the adjoin ing room, who was reading aloud from a Henry James novel. It Is probably well that we don't know More of myst'ry that we don't know. And that we can't prove what we think is so, Twould discourage us talkers so! A pathetic little story of a wid ow reduced to the necessity ef pawning: her wedding ring appears la the news. Perhaps the darkest hour Is Justy before the pawn. Editorial Comment From tJlher Papers Ambassador to Xazflaad Come Home William E. Dodd has checked out as ambassador to Germany and is back la this country, bitter over his experiences In Germany. The Immediate cause of his recall is not revealed but It may have Heen at the suggestion of the nazi au thorities for he was out Of sym pathy with them and did not con ceal his feeling as well as he might. He refused an invitation to the great nail convention at Nur embnrg, which may have precip ited a crisis, " Dodd's difficulties illustrate what this or any other democratic government is np against in try ing to maintain friendly relations with the authoritarian states. Ger many, Italy, Japan and their smaller imitators. The dictator ships hate democracy. Their hat. red is aggressive and open, no at tempt at concealment. They ridi cule our system of government. They make It clear that they mean to destroy it. How can we be gen uinely friendly with them, know ing their attitude? Yet diplomacy says we must go through the mo tions of pretending a sentiment we do not feel In order to avoid upsetting the apple cart or rocking the boat. : s-;-:r;i Ambassador Dodd found this too great a strata. He is appar ently an honest man who doesn't find professional diplomacy, which has been defined as-lying for one's country, pleasant. It la probably wise- to replace him with some body better suited to the job but one xannot help admiring him foi his "failure."

Prill, local or nithologist and naturalist, recent ly has added to his large collec tion a second American mergan ser, which was taken In; the Jor dan community by young Wil liam Bender. The merganser is not . uncom mon in western Oregon, Dr. Prill states, being found along streams containing fish. The bird has web feet, a slen der bill hooked at the end and beset with toothlike serrations. It is an expert diver and feeds chiefly on fish. The flesh or the merganser is said, to be poor as a table food. It is about the size of a mallard duck. W.
