age assistance. As one evidence, the Social Welfare society
has arranged special programs for Sunday, the day before the
legislature convenes, and Monday, the opening day. and! is
maldns: a special effort to insure the attendance of legisla-
tors.
In the 1938 campaign, a

gon law. like those of nearly all
j are assistance! be paid only to persons in need. It has also
i been pointed out repeatedly that such a requirement is neces
sary in order! to obtain the federal match money, but some
pension advocates and even some members of the 1937 legis
lature, refused to recoenize this fact. I !
1 . The present plight of our neighbor state, Washington,
, may perhaps serve to emphasize it. The Washington law was
amended so as to insure the maximum amount of assistance
to all recipients. The Washington supreme court recently
ruled in what! was known as
' ant was entitled to a pension
i lag cared for adequately by her children. On the strength of
J this decision, Ithe federal social security board ruled that all
matching funds for old age assistance should be discontinued.
A present 40,000 persons in Washington are receiving
I assistance averaging $22 a month, half of which is paid by
the federal government Unless the Washington legislature
amends the Wwf as it apparently must, the state will have to
nav a! similar nension to twice as many nersons and receive
no help from the federal government Thus the state's pen-

I I What liberalizing of old age assistance Oregon can .af
ford is up to jthe legislature. Present payments, especially in
some of the counties, are admittedly inadequate to provide a
. , ' decent living for elderly people
. support But in tackling the problem the legislature must keep
in mind and it is well for the general public to understand
1 that the old age assistance feature of the federal social se
curity law is not, and was not intended to be, an old age pen-

J Credit for "Recovery, If land When
The impending campaign
employment in private industry was mentioned here recently
' with the observation that The Statesman would join in the
applause in case Hopkins should succeed. With no intention
of hedging on! that promise, it should be pointed out, now that
193d is here, that a great many indices point to a consider-
1 able measure! of recovery this
the administration or congress
may do about it
Roger Babson predicts a
iness, which would bring total
the 1929 levejl and mean the difference between stringency
and prosperity to many industries but the nation has about
I nine million more people than
( production must be pushed considerably higher than that to
eliminate all but casual unemployment
, Babson and others take into consideration the remain
ing obstacles to recovery but it is now their opinion that the
pressure of demand for goods and services will overcome
! these obstacles including the probability that I the " begin
nings of recovery will inspire a new wave of strikes. An ex
: j ample may bO seen in housing. Lack of confidence, a sharp
rise in costs wo yearsi ago and othe'factors have retarded
home construction until now there is such an extreme short
ape that construction will just have to go ahead. Available
i easv term credit and development in design enabling famil
ies of $2500 a year incomes, or less, to build comfortable
homes withinl their means will help to' stimulate construction
in response to this demand. - - i .
) v Similarly the shortages in other commodities required by
a-the public are expected to exert an irresistible pressure, ac
cording to the view-of many economists, and recovery will
k proceed. No, of course we, are not accusing Harry Hopkins of
" taking this into account, when he announced ms reempioy-
merit drive.. But won't it be fortunate for him if I it does turn
out that way.

The Tuakegee Institute,
irom year to year, reports a iunner reaucuon mawo wiin
only six persons slain by inobs which took the law into their
own hands. In 1937 there were eight lynchings. ithe same
number as in 1936 ; in 1935
lynched in 1938 were all negroes. Three of these were charged
with murder,! one with rape, one with making insulting re
marks to a woman and one with failing to complete" payment
on a funeral bill! V'T ' . .. . '
. Officers of the law prevented 42 threatened lynchings
using armed force to repel a
of . the persons threatened "were white men. I j ! i
. Lvnrhinff has beeoma in this country almost entirely a
'problem of the south- and of the negro race. The number of
actual lynchings has declined until the problem is practically
negligible i infinitesimal, it might be said, in comparison to
careless killing on the highways. But the number, oi attempt
ed or threatened lynching proves that the basic inter-racial
friction that prompts them still prevails.
The dictators, anxious to
States upon its mob slayings, bat they haven't any case. There
' is a vast difference between murder by amob and murder by
the dominant political party t The one point of similarity is
likewise the point of our shame; there seldom is any effort
to punisfe lynchers. But it is something, that we are ashamed.

A Hope ead a Wish
Marching on into another year
Some in the lead, some in tho rear.
Some ot jas f eafuL some f nil of
cheer, j
lime will roll on for another year.
Those who like dreariness will be
drear, J
And changes, as sever, wrll ap
pear, ;
And many bogles will disappear.
Some folks will be there instead of
here,! j .
Some places now dark will be
made clear,
Some problems go over till next
year,!
So here's! to the world this glad
New Year!
May peace mix thick in its atmos
phere! Well, there it is again! I have
been expressing this sentiment ev
ery New Year for more than half
a century: .U . It has not appeared
to help greatly.! I reckon that if
life on earth were made to con
form to our hopes, we'd still go
plundering along in much the
same old human way.
Never give up. Good adric e,
mebby. But why cling to some
thing which Is not worth clinging
to Looks like stubbornness to me.
And I want to say right here
before I forget ft that 11-year-old
Master Warren's vocal number on
the matinee program at the Holly
wood Saturday matinee hit me in
the right spot. I
I listened In bn a feature Sun
day afternoon, balled "The Stars
of Tomorrow," a radio feature
sponsored by the Wheeling, W.
Vs., Steel corporation. I merely
chanced to catch this program,
and IH be catching lt again. The
talent ranges In j age from I to If
years, and is recruited from the
families i of employes of the steel
company.! Some mighty smart and
mighty talented youngsters in
Wheeling, suh. Still, I reckon that
with the same sort ot sponsorship
there would prove to be as many
ot the same sort ot youngsters in
Salem, in proportion to the popu
lation, of course, as there are in
Wheeling.
Memories and fOrgettories
You'll find all over town.
With one we wind our watches up.
With the other run them down.
Most ot the so-called New Year's
resolutions are! inspired by cir
cumstances at all seasons of the
year. It they chance to.be still
alive January 1 they, it may be
said, be givea a pleasant smile and
a handshake. I think the most ar
dent and soulful resolution X ever
made did not fairy mature until
January j 1, but had its inception
under a gooseberry hedge during
a hot day in July. It being vaca
tion, time. I was
"learning the art
preservative" in

ed daring the noon hour until the
foreman had- departed, and - then
cnt a man's size! chew from the
plug in the pocket ef his work ap

cheek, land started serenely for
home and dinner! Well, by stag
