Handcuffing
It needs hardly be reiterated that The Statesman be
- Sf5Sf ftlem and vicinity ought to patronize Sa-
Unity. This is the best policy only T
Hints contribute in taxes and otherwise to
fare, bat also because their continued ration overjr period
ofars is proof that they are responsible, that the goods they
of to are as represented and that in case of a misunderstand
tnz resulting in dissatisfaction, adjustment may -he .made to
remedy the situation. None of these things are true with re
spect to itinerant peddlers and solicitors. .
On the other hand, when if comes to drafting and enact
InW legislation which will force, rather than persuade, the res
idents of a community to do their buying m this wise and
prudent fashion, even if it can be done legally and without in
justice, extreme caution is necessary; and there is no better
proof of this than is contained in the peddlers ordinance
passed hurriedly this week by the city council and now await
ing position by the mayor. The essence of the ordinance
bill is found in the section which makes it unlawful :
. . .to go from place to place or from house to house carry
m Ii A- Afhrinr tnr ala anT eoods. wares, merchandise
or service not having been requested or Invited to do so by the
owner.
tenant or occupant or saw
place.'
The next section provides
which we note with gratification, from a selfish standpoint,
solicitation for newspapers and periodicals; The other major
exemption would permit the sale of Oregon agricultural
products. - . r
However it should be observed that uninvited solicitation
is prohibited not only in homes but in places of business. On
the face of the ordinance a traveling salesman representing a
wholesale house would break the law the moment he entered
a retail store .to solicit an order. Insurance salesmen ana au
tomobile salesmen would be prohibited from visiting business
of f ices not to mention homes, if selling was their moti ve. And
while The Statesman's circulation solicitors might call to sell
subscriptions, its advertising solicitors and commercial print
ing representative could go nowhere except where they were
invited. - ' . - I ' '
Actually none of these regular salesmen would be effect
ively handcuffed ; their work would merely be made unreason
ably awkward. If they were welcome in any given business
establishment, they could take the advance precautionjof ob
taining a written or preferably, a printed invitation. Slf the
ordinance goes into effect, our commercial printer will un
dertake to furnish such invitations in blank at reasonable
rates. - f - J- " ' - ; : . . - I -..
But by the same token, the
citors would likewise be able to get tnemseives mvuea wiio
homes and thus circumvent the serious purpose of the ordin
ance bill. This would be the procedure of the food peddlers
wrtnA activities inspired the drafting of the measure. There
would be other solicitors who could not obtain such standing
invitations because of the "one call nature of their business.
Would the ordinance stop them? No, they would take to the
relenrthne. where no ordinance in the world could get at them.
,And there are features of telephone solicitation which are
nhieetionable than door-to-door canvassing. Some of
nnr choicest frrfuds Are neroetrated over the telephone.
On the other hand there
hive manared to stav off the
manufacturing businesses and selling their products from
door to door. These praiseworthy entrepeneurs would be har
assed by the ordinance in question; possibly forced onto re-
lief. ; -; :-i-;-f--;i r "i
The truth is that anv attemnt to handcuff business enter-
prise is likely to prove not only unfair but futile. Govern
ment, national or local, has only two legitimate concerns in
connection with business ; taxation and protection of the pub
lic It is entirely proper to require that peddlers obtain licen
ses, for which they must pay fees in lieu of taxes, and to em
power the licensing officer to refuse licenses in case the sell
ing scheme involves fraud. But the license tax must be fair
and not prohibitive, and any refusal of license must be based
upon the public welfare and not upon anyone's desire to stifle
competition. .
' Problem o
Periodically the chaos on
some semblance of order, like the dancing shapes of a kalei
doscope. Yesterday, for no reason at all, the following arti
cles appeared from nowhere at about the same time: 1. An
editorial in a southern Oregon paper frankly anticipating
war with Japan as an immediate or eventual outcome of Am
erican denunciation of the 1911 trade treaty; 2. A news re
port in which the Japanese ambassador expresses his opinion
that it would be much better for both America and Japan to
renew commercial relations instead of indulging in nose-
thumbimr across the Pacific:
Woodlock in the west coast edition of the Wall Street Journal
in which he reviews the hypothesis of a French writer that
the European struggle will inevitably turn into a conflict be
tween orient and Occident rather than a war for balance of
power or western ideologies.-
There is nothing particularly remarkable about these
articles except their sudden contiguity; yet in a way they
raise into higher relief the problem of the significance of American-Japanese
relations in their setting in world history. As
an immediate problem, of course, the matter of the commer
cial treaty with Japan is the most pressing. American sentl
. cent is still strongly in favor of denying the little brown men
the favor of American scrap-iron dumps, and is still willing
to accept shipping stagnation and higher-priced (but better)
crab meat in consequence. Nor it is likely that the Nipponese
will go into such hysterics when they find the war. material
shipments shut of f that they will send their fleet to bust up
. the Golden Gate bridge in protest. ; - -
Certainly the most interesting problem to toy with, and
perhaps in the long run the most significant, is whether pres
ent events are merely one stage in a long period of historical
evolution looking toward a world-wide struggle for predomin
ance (not actual domination) between, the ancient forms of
oriental despotism and intolerance, and hard-wrung occiden
tal principals of constitutionalism and individualism. The
theory implies a Franco-English vs. German conflict, with
the Italians harrying the Russians through the Balkans, and
a f ull-biown Japanese war while the Russians roost on 'the
sidelines so far as actual. fighting is concerned and take ac-
. tion only when they march in
claim an unmitigated despotism
of America as they can chip off from both Japanese and Am
ericans. Great future for "all concerned, .
That nothing like this will
bet, perhaps more." But ho one can deny that the deepest cur
rents of history are those which are least apparent, and that
as ret the Pacific problem has been given few. whirls in the
present concentration on Europe. It is worth while occasion
ally to take a look around the full azimuth, and to attempt to
assay what may be new ships

S
Samuel John Mills was born
Amril 21. 1783. at Torrington,
Mass., his father a Congregation
al minister. His youthful ambi
tion was to become a farmer. He
experienced deep feelings on
count ot the revival of 1798, and
tor two years was sure he would
go to helL
In the autumn ot 1801, due to
the Influences of his mother, he I
was converted, and resolved that
he must preach the gospel. :
V r. i.
That year, he sold the farm
bequeathed to him by his grand'
mother, and entered Morris Aca
demy, Litchfield. In 1808 he went
to Williams College as a student.
and the first year was ' a leader
in a religious revival there.
He became Imbued with the
idea that he must go abroad and
preach the gospel to the heathen;
the first time that such an en
terprise had been considered In
the United States." says his bio
grapher.
-V. V ' i
"He proposed to several of his
friends that they should become
foreign missionaries, and secured
their favorable response, wrote
his biographer further.
Mills graduated from Williams
CoUege In 1809. and spent a few
months at Tale, in the hope ot
enlisting supporters ot his mis
sion projects there. His stay at
New Haven, however, was fruit-
leas, save for the discovery of
Henry Obooklah, a native ot the
Sandwich Islands, who had late
ly found his way to New Haven.
In 1810. Mills went to Andover
Theological Seminary, taking
Obooklah with him. Obooklah was
converted soon after, and his con
version resulted In the' founda
tion a few years later of the
Missionary School at Cornwall,
Massachusetts.
In the seminary, Mills talked
about missions Incessantly. Dur
ing 1810, he and three ot his
friends presented a paper to the
General Assembly ot if aaaacna-
setts. In which they declared
their desire to go as missionaries
to the heathen, and asked for
counsel. As a result, the Ameri
can board of Commissioners for
Foreign Missions was formed.
which In 1811 sent 12 missionar
ies to Calcutta, and by 1820 had
81 missionaries under Its charge.
On his graduation from Ando
ver in 1812, Mills was licensed to
preach, and sent by the Connec
ticut and Massachusetts : Home
Missionary Society on a tour of
the country beyond the AUeghen-
ies, from Cincinnati to New Or
leans,. In company with John F.
Schermerhorn, In 1814-15, -and
made a second and more exten
sive journey with Daniel Smith:
preached, distributed . Bibles and
tracts and formed Bible societies;
made sacrifices, suffered hard
ships; with Schermerhorn, i pub
lished a book ot their experiences
and findings; organized the Am
erican BttSle Society of the
United states; started the move
ment that resulted In a school tor
educating Negro preachers; work
ed among the poor in New York
City; planned work In South Am
erica; hoped to go with Obooklah
to the Sandwich Islands.
In 1817, Mills offered his serv
ices, with. w. Ebenezer Burgess,
to go to Africa and find a place
for homeless Negroes. The re
sult was the colony ot Liberia,

Knight Errant endured with
remarkable ' equine stoicism a
trying ordeal as the veterinarian
probed with his long forceps, fin

confessed to secreting In the
horse's nostrils months before.
Two nights after the operation.
Knight Errant came down with a
fever.
There was an anxious night.
while Heather, Slim and Snapper
stood by the horse, awaiting the
veterinarian's verdict.
"Infection I" was his diagno
sis. "Get him to a high, dry cli

Recalling an old friend. Fop

publicity tactics are encoursghg
the lmpeession that there must be.

Topbeavy destroyers ; "t

regulated families, but not even
the German gestapo has bern
bkt8 secretive about all Its af
fairs than the CS navy. Acting
Secretary Edison, for Instance,
has no regular press ronferen.
res. Newsmen are not permitted
to talk with any naval official
without going through the
publicity section, and the pub
licity section refuses to make
appoints nts except on routine
happenings.
Newsmen assigned as public ob
servers at the navy department be
came aroused recently, signed a
round robin asking Edison to bold
press conferences U !ce a week.
Finally, naval publicity announced
Edison would hold one every two
weeks because he was too buiy
to' hold them oftener. (President
Roosevelt welcomes press confer
ences twice a week. Slate Secre
tary Hull holds one every da.
Army officials are alwsy open to
consultation although- neither
Secretary Wood ring nor Asaiatant
Secretary Johnson holds regular
meetings.)
This bi-weekly solution only
added amusing confusion to na
val recalcitrances. Mr. Edison's
first press conference was post
poned, because he was absent.
Wbsn It was held a week late, a
lieutenant commander In the pretts
section requested newsmen to
limit the conference to ten
minutes because Mr. Edison was
busy. The aide to the secretary
notified reporters as they entered
the room that chairs would not
be provided since the conference
was to be short. It was and
unproductive. , 1(
Net result of all this is the
naval department occupies a
plane apart from other govern
ment activities, a secret I Te
cloud from which no Informs
tlon emanates, not even In for
nation beneficial to navy pur .
poses.
Publicity advisers there are not
to blame. Their efforts hare been
mined by the admirals, who ap
parently are working on the not
wholly illogical assumption that as
long as their budget maker In the
White House is their friend, they
do not need to worry sbout any
one else.
