in the development of eonatructive community policy.
A NEWSPAPER IS A CITIZEN OF ITS
COMMUNITY
MORE IMPORTANT THAN EVER
TVTOME Important than over 1b It that the pro-
A mote of the bill to raid the University and
the Normal Schools should name the Interests
backing them. Slander by Innuendo Is the latest
weapon employed by the schemers who are en
deavorinB to foist their project on the taxpayers
of Oregon.
They tell a wild story of a midnight robbery
which deprived them of 20,000 signatures. They
point suspicion In the direction of the "opponents
of the measure."' By this Ingenious publicity de
vice they obtain a front page spread In the news
papers of the state and launch a last minute drive
for more signatures.
But
THEY CONTINUE TO REFUSE TO TELL
WHAT INTERESTS ARE FINANCING THE
LAVISH EXPENDITURES TO FORCE A VICIOUS
ISSUE TO THE BALLOT.
The situation Is an affront to the common sense
of a fair-minded and intelligent people. For a long
time the methods of professional petition promoters
In this state have been an open and growing
scandal, but never before has there been a pro
motion so brazen In Its workings.
So the people of the state are asked to believe
that "opponents of the measure" would hire gun
men to steal petitions. The people of Oregon should
bear in mind one extremely Important distinction
between the proponents and the opponents of this
measure.
Every opponent of this measure Is willing to
fight in the open, to have his name known and used
In connection with the fight. Every dime spent In
fighting this measure can be traced to Its origin
and (or every dime apent Ihere Is an accurate and
public accounting.
The proponents of the measure, with the ex
ception of Messrs. Zorn and Marpherson and the
hired attendants of the campaign office are NOT
known to the people of Oregon. It Is stated that
they are "afraid for business reasons" to have their
connection known. What business reasons? Are
tbey speculating on this proposed transfer of Insti
tutions? Since when has any person In Oregon
honestly supporting an honest measure had to fenr
publicity on his actions and motives? ,
The last resort of a discredited and dying cause
is this effort to promote it with the public by the
Instruments of sensation and slander.
GOVERNOR AND SECRETARY
rpHE row between Governor Meier and Secretary
of State Hoss ovor the plan to accept time pay
ments on automobile licenses grows acute when the
governor must threaten to take the license duties
out of the secretary's bands and give them over to
the state treasurer.
Whether the governor can quite manage the
shift remains to be seen. The danger In the pro
gram is In the possibility of court actlonB which
might Involve the license work in endless delay
and difficulties.
The governor's proposal to give hard-up motor
vehicle owners a moratorium and to permit them
to pay their annual dues on a more convenient
basis Is sensible and practical in view of present
conditions. It may be extra-legal, but we doubt it
there Is any real danger of excesses growing from
such action.
What is needed at Salem Is cooperation In a
program which will get the license ptatea to the
users with a minimum of Inconvenience to them
and a minimum loss of state rovenuoa. Common
consent of the people of Oregon will give the plan
sufficient footing until It can be ratified by legis
lative action.
A row which tins this Important phase of state
business up in the courts will not he welcomed by
the people. People want to use their cars this
summer. They want some acceptable tags now.
They want a pnymeut plan which will tide thorn
over. A businesslike plan which covers those points
Is not likely to be challenged nor Is it likely to
get the officials hack of It Into any real trouble.
SOMEWHAT SAFER AND SANER
"A
pJESPITE the shocking total of 216 deaths over
the Fourth of July weekend, the statistics
from all parts of tho country show that tho cele
bration of the nation's birthday this year was a
bit safer and saner than the year previous when
nearly 600 gavo their lives.
Only 10 were killed by fireworks as compared
with 21 a your ago. Drownings, desplto tho tragic
affair off the bar at Tillamook, droppod from 181
to 81. Motor accidents claimed 111, a figure still
much loo high, hut a little under the figure a
year ago.
There Is reason to believe that propngnmla for ft
safe and sane Fourth la really doing much good.
The Fourth can never bo made entirely sate.
There Is something In the very nature of tho day
which seems to inspire people to lake rhnnces.
Some student of niHRS psychology might mnko this
an IntcreMlng study.
We are told, for instance, that cool weather
Monday acted as a check on anient celehrntors.
Possibly It nienna that fewer people Indulged
deeply In bootleg alcohol.
There Is another phase of the annual Fourth of
July disunity list which might hear study. The
people of the country are almortt unanimous In tho
urge to "do something" on the Fourth, Posnlbly on
that day the number of people taking part In chancy
things la greater than on any other day In the
calendar.
If this la the cnne, Is the Fourth of July casualty
Hat any IiIi-.Iut proportionately than for tho real
of tho year? la it as high? We know from govern
ment statistics and Insurance statlatlcs that the
dally accident toll Is appalling, eapeclally the toll
from household accidents which seldom figure In
the headlines.
The safe and sane Fourth movement Is highly
necessary, of comae, but study might show that the
flally safety problem U aven greater.
REVISING GERMAN DEBTS
rpilOL'UH American politicians In their party con
ventlons continue to shout that war debta which
European nations owe this country must be col
lected down to the last dime, plans go forward
merrily at Lausanne for the revision of those debts.
It Is agreed (contingent on American coopera
tion) that reparations from Germany to France
shall be dropped virtually. French debts to the
United States shall be protected by a German
bond issue of approximately a billion dollars which
is nearly 100 billions less than Germany was sched
uled to pay France under the Young plan.
Details are not completed, but revisions of the
war debts are Inevitable, dcBplte the proclamations
of politicians. Falling values have made original
obligations an Impossible burden on the creditor
nations. If normal trade relations are to be re
stored, payments must be fixed at aums within
present capacity to pay. The only alternative
would be collection by force of arms. That is not
practical In any way.
It is reasonable for the United States to demand
that European countries reduce their expenditures
on armaments and that they make governmental
economies and that they demonstrate at least their
willingness to ray what they can pay, but common
sense requires a restoration of economic balances
throughout the world.
We cannot do business with nations which have
been Impoverished. The longer International trade
remains stagnant the longer we suffer from de
pression. Revision of the debt schedules is inevit
able. Revision of tariffs must follow In turn.
Prosperity does not flow one way.
OUR SUBSTANTIAL PLANES
rjPHE amount of hammering the modern passenger
carrying airplane can stand when it has to
was splendidly illustrated the other day when a
commercial plane carrying two pilots and seven
passengers landed at Kansas City after an exceed
ingly rough flight from Albuquerque.
During the flight the plane ran Into what evi
dently was the great-grandfather of all hailstorms.
Its shatter-proof glass windows were all cracked.
Dents two Inches deep were found In the fuselage.
Corrugations in the wings had been hammered out
flat. Department of Commerce Inspectors who ex
amined the plnne expressed complete belief In the
passengers' statement that It had been bombarded
by hailstones "as large as apples."
A few years ago such a storm would have
wrecked any plane. This plnne came through on
schedule and landed Its passengers unharmed. It
Is a splendid testimonial to the substantial way
planes are built nowadays and to the skill with
which they are flown.
An Inventor claims that he has perfected a
rivet bolt which will reduce noise to 1 per cent of
its present volume. That must be what you would
call a neighbor-saving device.

TWELVE SAFETY RULES FOR SWIMMERS
Bj Dtt. MORRIS FISHBEIN
(Editor, Journal of American Medical
Association, and of Hygeia,
the Health Muyazine)
CIXTY per cent of all rirowimiRs oc-
ctir from May to August. Contrary
to the iiMinl belief, the majority of
people who drown are expert swim
mers and not omateura. The expert
awimmer taken rhnneps to which the
ainntnur never anbmita himself.
Weiasmoller, most famous of Amer
ican awimmers. nere'r awima out in
deep water without an accompanying
boat. The Rood swimmer sometimes
overeslimates hia atremrth and diare
gards common aenae rules of safety.
Dr. E. H. Lines, medical director
of a great lifo insurance company,
after an examination of the records
of tlmt company concerning persons
who drowned while swimmintr. offers
the following 12 rnlea of safety for
special consideration during the awim
ming season:
1 Do not go swimming alone or at
nipht.
2 Don't overestimate your
strength. Because you have been able
to awim a certain distance several
times that day. that does not meau
that you will be able to do it again.
3 Never swim across lakes or
rivers or from headland to island,
etc., or in unknown or dangerous
waters, unless accompanied by a boat
and a strong- level-headed companion
trained in life-saving.
4 At the first opportunity learn
how to rescue drowning persons with
out unduly endangering your own life
and lean! how to administer artificial
respiration.
5 Do not attempt to swim to a
drowning person's rescue in rough
or deep water unless no other help in
immediately at hand and you arc con
fident you are nipoble of effecting
a reseiic without sacrificing th
drowning person's, as well as your
own, life.
ft If possible before starting to a
reseue. call to someone to get a rope,
or a boat. If you are dressed, remove
shoes, coat and trousers.
7 Don't swim for at least two
hours after eating, and never swim
beyond your depth in very cold water.
8 Never drink any cold bevernge
immediately before going swimming.
0 Skylarking in a boat is danger
ous. Learn how to enter and leave
Wonts and canoes and how to manage
them properly.
10 D on't duck or "teast" your
friends who are not aa good swim
mers as yourself. This may create a
panicky mind whb'h in on emergency
may result, in death.
11 Tench your friends who are
poor swimmers to go bathing in pairs
(preferably with someone else who is
a good swimmer), to stay in shallow
water, to beware of hidden holes and
sudden drops in the sen shelving, and
to beware of heavy breakers and un
dertows. i'Z Never dive in unknown, shal
low or rocky waters. Even In clear
waters remember that "a deep dive
is a dangerous dive."

TODAY'S RECIPES
By BISTER MARX
DARTIES daring the summer call
for a light and cool touch in menu
and table decorations. Fortunately,
there are innumerable jellied and
frozen dishes, crisp cool salads and
iced beverages that are easy to pre
pare and delightful to serve.
Luncheon or afternoon tea de
mands something out-of-the-ordinary
and interesting but not fussy or pre
tentious. Perfection and not elabora
tion might be the slogan for the re
freshments. For luneheon, jellied bouillon or a
chilled fruit soup, salad and dessert
with a drink of some kind make a re
freshing and satisfying menu.
For tea, a salad with sandwiches
and a beverage leaves little to be de
sired. The salad which does double
duty aa both salad and dessert is
particularly alluring for the summer
luncheon or tea. It simplifies serv
ing, an Hem always worth consider
ing, and has a more cooling effect
than a sweet dessert.
A dessert salad is at its best jellied
or frozen. Either of these forms is
attractive. A variation of the frozen
salad uses a frozen dressing. This is
particularly desirable when a largo
number of persona must be served. A
pear or peach stuffed with a frozen
cheese dressing is delicious and fes
tive. Tomatoes stuffed with a piquant
frozen cheese are rather unusual and
very good.
Jellied and frozen salads must be
made hourB before wanted and are all
ready for serving when the guests
arrive with almost no extra work.
They may be chilled or frozen in a
mechanical refrigerator without any
labor or they can be packed in ice
and salt and frozen without stirring.
Tf you want to use fruits In a
frozen mixture, you will find that can
ned f.uits are better adapted to freez
ing than fresh ones. If fresh ones are
used. its a good idea to let them
stand in a heavy syrun for several
hours before freezing. This tends to
prevent them from becoming Icy
when frozen.
Although the most successful sal
ads have salad dressings folded in be
fore molding and chilling or freezing,
as the case may he. salad dressing also
ia used as a garnish when the snlad
ia arranged for serving. The perfect
salad is pleasingly tart.
There is almost no limit to the com
binations of fruits to be used in des
sert salads. One of the most delirious
is red raspberry and peach with
cheese halls. This combination can be
used frozen or jellied. If a jellied
salad la wanted, incrense the nmount
of gelatin given In the recipe to two
tablespoonfuls.
Salad Melba
One quart red raspberries. 2 mps
diced pearhes. 2 teaspoons granulat
ed gelntlne. 1 cup mayonnaise. 1-2
cup whipping cream. 4 tablespoons
lemon juice. 1 package Philadelphia
cream cheese. 2 tablespoons butter,
salted nlmonds.
Crush berries and extract Jnlee.
Pour 1 cup water through crushed
berries. Soften gelatine in 2 table
spoons cold wnler nnd dissolve over
hot water. Add to berry juice with
lemon juice and a little sugar if nec
essary. When mixture begins to stif
fen, pare and dice peaches. Add nt
once to felly with mayonnaise nod
cream whipped until firm. Fold liehtlv
to mix Ingredients and turn into mold.
Pack In eight parts Ice to one nart
Ice cream salt and let stand three
hours or longer. Combine rheese and
butter, working with a fork until
smooth. Make Into tiny flat cakes
about the size of a quarter and stick
pointed ends of nlmonds Into each
cake, dnlsv fashion, mnkinr the nl
monds the pefaals, and the cheese the
center. Serve the salad on crisp
chilled lettuce with a garnish of may
onnaise and a "daisy.
Frozen Cheese
One-half run or two rakes Philadel
phia cream cheese. 1-2 teaspoon salt.
1 cup whipping cream. 4 tablespoons
minced marasehlnn cherries or pre
served ginger or crushed pineapple,
ft halves of fruit mi eh as pearhes or
pears.
There la a cream cheese prepared
with crushed pineapple that Is conven
ient to use. This mixture la espe
cially good with anricots. Preserved
ginger combines with pears and mara
schino cherries with peaches. Tf the
mixture Is to he used with tomatoes,
pineapple Is a good choice.
Work cheese and minred fruit with
a fork until smooth. Fold In" cream
whipped until firm and seasoned with
snlt. Park In tlx parts Ice to one part
