President Member the Asmorsnlew Tbe Associated Ptms U exclusively aUUe to the on for Publlcsv f ail mwi dispatches credited te It or mot nbTwiae credited la Treasurer Pearson Bows out politically speaking, this department confesses to bav in breathed a sigh of relief upon receipt of the announce ment from Walter E. Pearson, state treasurer, that he will not run for reelection this year to the office to which he was appointed in the closing days of the Martin administration. Though The Statesman is independent, no one needs to be told that its editorial policy has decided republican leanings. Though it would support a good democrat for public office If his superiority over the republican nominee was unques tioned, it has considerable difficulty in recognizing a good democrat, come election time. Thus The Statesman foresaw some degree of embarrass ment in connection with the contest for state treasurer, as suming that Walter Pearson remained in the race. The re publicansso we reasoned would nominate an excellent man, but how they could nominate a better man than Walter E. Pearson was more than we could see. Now Mr. Pearson has bowed himself out and our task becomes less difficult. ' t pMrutn Via mH and is makincr an excellent record in the treasurer's office and as of control and the otner Doaras 01 wnicn ne is an e-umcu mamtwi fon ikan that, he is an amiable gentleman who has tJ endeared "himself to the people of Salem and especially to those who frequent the state capitol. How he happens to be a democrat is, well, not a mystery for he comes from the south where most everyone is a democrat, but at any rate a marvel. Seriously speaking, it was not a sigh of relief but one of re gret that greeted his announcement that his service to the state must terminate less than a year hence. He is a true pub lic servant, of a type only too rare in government. War Economics When the war started some months ago, most Americans were as touchy about its possible economic effects as a timor ous lady aware of a mouse grinning up from a vantage point near her foot The neutrality act was shortly changed to pro vide against sudden inflation of credit buying, and American ships were summarily forbidden to navigate in submarine and mine-ridden seas. The assumption was that the belliger ents, particularly the allies, would turn to American manu facturers for needed supplies of war materials only as a last resort, and then would pay promptly in gold. This seemed amazingly simple in November at the time when the revised neutrality act was passed; but subsequent events have shown that the problem was not as elemental as had been thought. In the first place, instead of waiting until they had shot up all the war supplies manufactured during the last year or more before they turned to America, Britain and France immediately sent purchasing agents to this coun try to begin negotiations for heavy goods, machinery, trucks and other equipment in addition to large airplane orders. This business, instead of starting slowly and coming to a peak only after months and even years as during the World war, has already far surpassed the war order level for the same pe riod of the war in.1914. Most of the orders, likewise, have been for manufactured goods rather than foodstuffs, which can be purchased to better advantage in South America. Second, and eveji more novel, the United States, instead of accepting without question payment in gold in settlement for the goods orders, is requiring the liquidation of British and French investments owned in this country so that pay ment may be made in dollars representing real wealth with in this country, and not merely in gold which may or may not retain its value in future years. This has been in recognition of the fact that this country already has much more gold than is healthy cached away in a Kentucky hole and, lacking guar antee of its future value, it is better to insist on payment in permanent values rather than in the more speculative metal. Such insistence on foreign liquidation of American in vestment has not yet caused either England or France to draft such holdings for national use ; but it has already been sufficient to wrinkle the brows of American treasury offi cials at the effect it may have on deflating the domestic in vestment market through excessive selling. This brain-teaser has not yet been satisfactorily solved, though the suggestion of a federal ajrency to underwrite such sales at present prices has already been made. Most a new federal corporation is exactly what the United States needs, no matter what the emergency. Even with these developments in foreign war buying, different as they are from what was originally expected, there Is no reason to believe that purchase of war materials has become a stable and dependable calculus in the American economy. If the raiding parties along the Rhine give way to mass attacks; if the German air fleets suddenly appear over London, Liverpool and Glasgow; if Russia sends the peoples' - army Into the Balkans to bring sweetness and light to the masses, then the already precarious economic balance may be thrown into even more unexpected gyrations. In the mean time, however, one can do little more than watch the chang ing shape of things. Monarchy in America "What American monarchy once had an important col ony in Europe?" Now there's a question that Prof. Quizz or some other of the radio ask-it boys might select for its weekly contest "sticker." Not many Americans north of the Latin - line realize that there ever was an American monarchy, few er still that from 1808 to 1821 its "empire" included Portu gal. The monarchy was Brazil, something of an empire in it self ; and its existence under the rule of a king or emperor up to as recently as 1889 was recalled to mind by the death within the past week of the last of the monarchical Bragan ta line. The Western Hemisphere has Napoleon Bonaparte and the British fleet to thank for introducing the old-style Euro pean type of government on this side of the Atlantic. John VI of Portugal vacillated as Napoleon drove into his territory, finally decided to fall in with the Corsican but too late for the British fleet was in his ports. The British offered him the , alternative of abdication or emigration and when he chose the latter, personally conducted him to the new world where he set up his court in grand style, bringing along the first printing press and other evidences of culture. Thus with the seat of empire in Brazil, Portugal became in effect a pro vince or colony. This situation ended abruptly In 1821 when John went back to Portugal and Brazil declared its independence under the rule of his son, Pedro I. Once again in 1826 upon the death ' of John, Portugal was ruled by remote control from Brazil -r by Pedro I, but with the two nations separate this was a slightly different situation. Pedro went home to Portugal two rears later to quell a revolution, and his son Pedro IL a minor, ' became king. This Pedro XI turned out to be an enlightened . ruler, revered by the populace regardless of political issues, and managed to retain his throne, while permitting the devel opment of a high degree of democracy, until 1889. It was his government's progressive action in abolishing negro slavery I . a.1 a a a m a at a . tue previous year mar auenaxea we support oz ine pi&nxexs, ' 1 A m J 1 a m m m a a leading to his downfall and the establishment of a republic which wiped out the last, and In fact the only legitimate, mon archy in the Western Hemisphere. Now the royal line has run out. Incidentally there appears to be a dearth of literature, in the English language, about the Braganza family. There Is just enough to convince one that it is an intriguing story, not enough to satisfy the curiosity and interest thus aroused. jtatestttati a member of the state board people will probably agree that I Bits for Breakfast By R. J. HENDRICKS Story and romance of 2-3-40 one who was perhaps the first white man to lire on what Is now Oregon soil: 'm (Continuing from yesterday:) "Speaking a few low words to his son Edwin, they both left me standing by the gunsmith's bench In much wonder at finding my self (a self-made gunsmith's son) looking at and appraising the skill of an aparently pure bred Oregon Indian self taught at the same trade. Edwin, the sick girl, and one older than she, called Ona-clam, all had high ovel faces- and natural heads, different from other free Indian youths. "I had not long to wait. Cul laby, with little aid from me or his son, soon had about 200 pounds of elk meat securely bound across the back of the mare, and, giving a sign to Ed win to see me over the marsh, he returned to his work. Before Edwin and I had gotten across the marsh to the dry, sandy plains, a feeling of natural friendship had sprung up be tween us that lasted until his early death, and even now that feeling of warm friendship re turns to me every time I think of him "I had no need to return to Cullaby's cabin to learn his story, for Edwin appeared at the Smith ranch early the next day, and together we went to the sea ridge, and, within sound of the surf, be told me of his father's story as he had heard It from him the night before. It was the story of Cullaby's origin as the grandson of possibly the first white man ever cast up alive by ocean waves on the Oregon shore. "The family tradition was told to Cullaby when a youth of ten der years by a native woman well down the decline of life. There are circumstances In the story to indicate the wreck of a ship carrying supplies to a Catholic mission on the California coast. The ship was blown out of her course and thrown a broken wreck on the Oregon coast near what Is now called Cannon beach. From this wreck a young white man was saved by the pity of a Tillamook Indian girl. "As I have already stated, I did not have to return to Cul laby's place to learn his story, for Edwin arrived early the next morning, and together we went where we could hear the roar of the surf, and there he told me his father's story as he had heard it the night before. I shall not attempt to write the story in Edwin's exact words, bat he related it about as fol lows: "It was many, many years ago, I do not know how many; my grandfather and mother lived with her parents near NehaJem. but north of It. They were Tilla mook (Indian) people. The wind rind rain had been strong for many days, and were still very strong. The people did not leave their lodges, because the days were dark and stormy. One very dark night when the wind was still and the rain had ceased falling, the people heard a great noise, different from the noise the waters made boom! boom! Fire could be seen out on the water near which their village was built, and the people were much frightened at the strange noises and unusual sights. A noise like the cry of people In distress could be heard above the roar of the waters which the high winds and tides had driven very near the village. All the people were awakened from their sleep and were In great fear. S S "The morning light was just breaking, and Ona, the daughter of a family living nearest the beach, could not be hindered from running to the shore while the light was yet gray; and Wena, her mother, afraid for her child, followed her. The first ob ject Ona noticed on the wet sand proved to be the body of a short, thick man, with short hair on his face, low down, and on his head; he was quite dead. "Looking northward, Ona saw another dark object, and, run ning to it, she found it to be an other man, and still another, much like the first, lying face downward and Quite dead. These all had dark skin much like her own. A little farther north a great mass of wreckage had been thrown high up on the shore. Ona ran to this, and on the aide from tbe water aaw what appeared to be a human head with short, red hair. It was held down by a small spar lying across the back of the neck, pressing the face into the sand; a lot of rope and sail cloth covered the legs and lower part of the body. Ona thought she saw th head move; this fright ened her, and she ran from it, m S "Just at this time Ona's moth er appeared on the scene not far away. A man. who lived near by, also came np, and went to the pile of wreckage to see what had frightened Ona. Be took a large piece of broken wood and was about to strike the head. Ona gave a scream, and, taking up a stick, rushed np behind the man, and, before his blow could fall, struck him over the head so that he was laid low apon the sand. "Her mother Jiad reached the place, when two other women were seen on the beach near by, and they were beckoned to ap proach. Ona was wild with ex citement, and ordered them to help lift one end of the spar that lay across the neck, which they managed to do after several failures; but they could not poll the body from the wreckage, until they bad treed It from the rope and sails, which, with the spar, seemed to have been thrown apon the man by the wave suc ceeding the one which had thrown him on the beach. - "With the help of her mother and the women, Ona had the man, who still breathed, car ried to her father's house. When they had gotta there, her fata- Tragedy Chapter 80 (Continued) He smiled. "Then let's not. There are many things I would rather talk about, such as the next time you are coming to my studio." "I don't know when that will be. With Juan not yet recovered from his wound and all the coun tryside aflame. Aunt Ines hasn't wanted me to go down from the mesa. And yet," great tears stood in the girl's eyes. "I need help so much, Paul. I'm so terribly un happy, and there's no one I can go to." "Not even me?" "Tea, you alone. Then I'll come tomorrow." But she shook her head. "With Aunt Ines and Juan around, what chance have we to really talk? And this time I want " On a sudden Impulse she urged, "Paul, meet me here tonight." Bodlne's eyes raised toward Douglas. "Do you think it safe? You know he doesn't want me to come here so often." "Meet me tonight" Her low, er, who had not left the place, told them to lay him near the fire with his head lower than his body, as he had doubtless wallowed much water. This was done, and the man vomited some water. Ona's father then told them to Utt him np and lay htm so he could sleep. "Soon he opened hla eyes, and Ona said many years after that they seemed blue as the sky. He was too weak to move himself and his neck seemed almost broken. When he opened his eyes again, they seemed darker like deep water; but the look from them spoke like the soft eyes of a fawn which Ona had once seen struck by eagles. Ona's father told her to give him some soup, as he might be hungry. This was done, and he slept again." (Continued tomorrow) Film Players Robbed of Jewels "-"rf Richard Here are Constance Bennett, left; and Anita Louise, film players, who were held up and, robbed of . 133,095 to Jewelry to Chicago aa they were returning from a benefit performance of a play which waa closing Its nm la that city. With the two -at the time of the hold ap by five masked bandits waa Richard Ainley, young I2aaUah actor. Doesn't Always Dress in Black "SS o "Red Earth" By Tom GiU suppliant voice was almost a caress. "No one will ever have to know." She nodded toward the vaqueros guarding the gate. I'll see that they're away when you come. Please, Paul this isn't just a whim. I need you now as I never needed you before. I I'm not able to cope with this alone. Tou mustn't fail me." He no longer hesitated. "I'll be here at the gate tonight at eleven. But if" A shadow fell between them, and looking up, they saw Lin Foo sitting his burro just behind them, folding a large white nap kin into a basket. Face abeam with smiles, he took off his broad hat and bowed to them, then still smiling, rode toward the servants' quarters. "That Chink gives me the creeps." Bodlne's gaze followed him. "I wonder just how much he heard?" The artist mounted, and leaning down, added in a lower tone. "Tonight at eleven." Lola joined the others when Bodine had gone, seating herself beside them in silence, but Alison, happy at Douglas' swift recovery and unconscious of the ominous tightness about Lola's Hps, nodded toward Lin Foo, disap pearing about a corner of the hacienda. "That cook of mine insisted on bringing up a basket of lndlgest lbles for Juan.'(;p)' HappUy she smiled up at Douglas. "Not that you need it. Lola's been a mar velous nurse you've positively thrived under her care. Lola made no reply, and Doug las retorted. "If you only knew how ahe bullies me. This morn ing she told me I was a big child." "Tou are a big child." Lola re peated, unsmiling, "and It is be cause women spoil and flatter you." Alison laughed. "Do I flatter him too, dear?" But there was no- answering Ainley and Aalta Letdssj i ,:;;:;;;; , 5 fhy yMki laughter in Lola's eyes. Instead, Alison met a look .of undisguised hospitality as sullenly the girl an swered. "How should I know what you say to him? You both stop talking whenever I come near you." An nncomfortable silence fol lowed, and to break It. Douglas spoke of his Impatience to see the pure-blood horses still pastured in Verde, and of the news that his cattle were doing well on the grasses of Sonora. But Alison, haunted by that look In Lola's eyes, soon rose to go, and Lola walked beside her to the gate. "I think you had better wait until next week, Alison, before you come again." Lola looked away as she spoke. "I want Juan to be kept very quiet. Too many people are seeing him for his good." "But you mustn't worry any longer, dear. Why, he's almost well enough to ride." "Don't you think Aunt Ines and I had better be the judges of that?" Lola's lips were bloodless, and sick at heart Alison laid both hands on the girl's shoulders. "What Is it Lola? You're so changed. You're been different for the last month, 'and It makes me sad to see the change in yon. You act almost as if you hated me, and there must never be hate betwen as." Her low-pitched, earnest voice waa pleading now. "Listen, Lola, if it's about Juan you must know that he and I are simply partners in an undertaking an undertaking terribly Import ant to both of us. You've got to believe me. Let's not forget past friendship and all It has meant to us. Let's not allow any one or anything to destroy that. I swear you have nothing to fear from me.' Lola tried to laugh. "What makes yon think I am afraid of you? Are you so irresistible?" Despairingly Alison held her closer. "Lola. Lola, there must be a way to reach you. Can't I make yon see how wrong you are about an this?" But Lola had thrown aside those conciliatory arms. "Keep away from Juan. That's ail I ask of you." Her voice was strident with unleashed anger. "I always knew you were treacherous and deceitful; I've watched yon day after day trying to worm your way into Juan's life. Oh, I'm not ine only one who knows It every body knows. And it's all clear enough. Tou would like to be mistress of the great Miracle Mesa Rancho, wouldn't you? But you'll never be. You hear that? Never! You can conspire" "Stop!" Alison's voice silenced the words In mid-air. You're said enough, Lola. Her own eyes were biasing now, her cheeks pink with anger. "Not even old friendship gives you the right to speak as you have. "Then say yon don't love Juan. Say It.- Let me hear you." Pale and with eyes aflame, the two girls faced each other while slowly Alison's lips parted. She made as If to speak, but no sound came, and suddenly she was aware of the blood surging wildly in her veins, suffusing her throat, mounting to her cheeks. For a second she stood there, silent, then with a little gesture mount ed and spurred through the gate But for long minutes after she had gone, Lola stood looking down the road, tearing to shreds the small lace handkerchief ahe held. ' MYou11 never have him. she whispered once, and a spasm of trembling eelzed her. "Never, never." ' Her eyes turned to the desert, where In the, middle distance she caught sight of Bodine galloping toward the sunset, and the thought of having him for coun selor and ally calmed her.

State Salaries Being Checked Budget Division Seeking to Standardize Rates for All Positions By PAUL W. HARVEY, JR. Associated Press Writer Standardisation of state sala ries, which, eventually will save considerable money, is being worked oat by Budget Director David Kccles. When the plan goes through soon, Eccles la reality will be come head of a personnel system, which, however, will not Include the public welfare commission, state board of higher education, state highway commission and state unemployment compensa tion commission. These depart ments already have merit sys tems of their own. Numerous Inequalities Exist There are many inequalities in salaries paid to state employes. A -stenographer in one depart ment may get $80 a month while a stenographer in another de partment may get $135, even though both are doing the same kind of work. Eccles is working out classifi cations for all employes, with a wage scale for each. For instance, Jmnior stenographers will be paid $0 to $100 a month because all they have to know is stenogra phy and shorthand. A senior stenographer, who also has to perform other duties requiring initiative, will be paid from $90 to $125. Department Choice Unhindered The budget dirislon also will tell the departments what em ployes they need, but will not select them. . "A department won't be able to Increase the number of its employes unless it shows tbe budget division it has good cause for doing so," Eccles said. Oregon's old-age assistance load apparently reached its high mark last September when 20, 741 persons, or 24. 9 per cent of Its population over 65 years, of age, received pensions averaging $21 a month. Pensioners on Relief Rolls Since then the number of cases haa been decreasing slight ly and new old age assistance applicants are being placed on the direct relief rolls, which in creased from 7,831 cases in Sep tember to 11,389 in December. There has been some disagree ment over this policy. The fed eral government pays half the cost of old age pensions, but con tributes nothing toward direct relief. During September, 60,111 cases received some form of assistance, which means at least 100,000 per sons were givea aid. These in clude, besides old age pension and direct relief cases. 10,014 cases on WPA, 4988 on other federal projects, 18 $3 on the aid to dependent children program, 2080 in the CCC. 1100. on Na tional Tooth administration work projects and 487 blind persons.
