A NEWSPAPER IS A CITIZEN OF ITS
COMMUNITY
THE "FRAME" THAT FAILED
"DEPORTS from the Investigation of the great
petition hoax are rather meager, but It la
apparent that the police at Portland are gradually
putting together the pieces of a very ugly picture.
A grand double-double-cross seems to have been
the Intent of the perpetrators or this atrange affair.
According to the Corvallis paper, one of the
gents at G. H. Q. In Portland spent $8 on long
distance one day last week giving the brethren In
Corvallis a tlpoff on an alleged deal with opponents
of the measure, and one of the Corvallis group
accordingly was sent to Portland to give the alarm
and to act as a sort of extra watchman for the
treasure.
Apparently the setup was to lead the alleged
petition buyers Into a trap where they could be
surprised by the virtuous Corvallis delegate, or at
least Identified for future reference. Something
went "haywire" In the plans.
Either there never were any petition buyers or
they were far too "cagey" to walk into any trap,
or the bungling office watchman gave the alarm
and brought down the police so soon that no
delivery could be perfected. Either there was a
scandalous transaction of attempted sell-out and
double crossing or the whole thing resolves Itself
Into a contemptible racket for the sole object of
publicity.
About the only thing that Is clear is that the
principals In the maneuver were capable of tricking
not only their opponents but the public and even
each other. The public will find it difficult to
place any confidence In people connected with
such an affair.
The latest phase of the racket is a series of
slander stories alleging that the brave souls In
charge of the school raid are In danger from kid
napers or bombers or gangsters. These things we
must grin and "bear mostly grin at, because they
do not fool anybody anywhere.
expect and often receive proportionate favors. If
things were Ideal, parties would be financed by the
dues of long lists of active members (as the Labor
party in England was for many years). But practical
politicians know the futility of trying to get and
hold long lists of paying members. The present
system is quicker and eaBler.
Most of us call ourselves Republican or Demo
crat without ever slopping to think that this really
should Involve a financial as well as a voting ob
ligation. When we grumble because parties seem
to favor special interests, we forget that we really
have little right to complain.
TESTING LUMBER COMBINATION
PRESIDENT HOOVER replies to Governor Meier's
proposals In behalf of the lumber Industry with
the suggestion that the government and the lumber
men organlie a friendly civil suit to test the
legality of production and price controlling com
bines. In effect, the president's suggestion Is that
the courts shall legislate around the Sherman antl
, trust act by the process of Interpretation.
That Is one way of getting the thing done. The
problems of lumber and the other natural-resource
Industries, however, will probably require positive
legislation In addition to all that can be done to
help them by the loosening of present regulations.
It Is doubtful If operating combines can achieve
efficient regulation of production without a co
ordinated program to bring all sources of supply
under proper control.
The marginal operator In coal or oil or timber
.or mineral orea presents an extremely difficult
problem. He owns property which Is taxed and
on which be Is entitled to a chance to earn a re
turn. The public will resent any loosely drawn
program which eliminates all the essential elements
of competition. Many economists do not believe
the problem can ever be solved until the govern
ment appropriates all marginal resources Into vast
federal reserves.
Legalizing combinations for the self-regulation
of present operations will be a helpful step Insofar
as It will strengthen Industries to meet present
emergencies, but a program which will conserve
resources and prevent wasteful operations for all
time to come will be needed in the long run. It Is
such a study, as we understand It, that Governor
Meier has proposed.
LEAVING IT TO HERBERT
TRACING election hurdles In the fall, the Senate
and the House Join in sending the relief bill
to the president without removing the objectionable
provisions for throwing the federal relief program
open to every conceivable kind of grab. Republican
senators claim they swung to the bill In the hope
of hastening compromise action by bringing on a
quick veto. Possibly they will hasten the com
promise but they are taking for themselves the
obviously easy "out." Hoover and Hoover alone
will have to face the protests born of prejudice and
misunderstanding In this matter.
The so-called Garner plan for opening the relief
loan privileges to all comera without an adequat
financial provision for the strain Is one of the
cheapest pieces of political clap trap ever put be
fore the public. The efficacy of the whole program
might be subject to legitimate challenge. It
merely an economic shin-plaster at best. At no
point has either party shown any genuine under
standing of the social and economic dislocations
which are giving the nation so much distress. In
any form the relief bill la a mere "shot-ln-the arm
to ease the pain while nature does the rest.
Luckily the patient has such a rugged const!,
tutlon that he will probably survive even the rem'
edles of the experts. Maybe the experts will get
so excited trying to pin the blame on Dr. Hoover
that they will forget to operate. For business, that
might even be a break. Perhaps the best thing
that could happen to business would be to give up
looking for help through politics.
SIDE GLANCES
WHAT OTHER EDITORS THINK
HIGH COST OF CAMPAIGNING
TIHILE the stntesmen and noarslntesmcn sound
off on "the Issues" for the coming presidential
campaign, the practical boys In both parties are
getting busy on certain Inipurtant arlthmotlcnl
problems. Should we say "simple arithmetic"?
Arithmetic Is no longer simplo when tlio sum comes
to $10,000,000. That, according to the experts, Is
what It will cobI tho two major parties for the
campaign this year. About $.'1,000,000 nplccc! That's
II!
Oh no, don't get excited! The previous cam
, palgn cost the two major parties $16,500,000. In
cluding what Bishop Cannon cost the Republicans
and the Al Smith deficit which Johnny Raskub
had to absorb. But that was in the piping putlocl
of prosperity when the slogan was two cars for
every garngo. Along with all other things the
price of campaigning is coming down. This year,
for Instance, It will be quite unnp-cossnry to say
anything about two cars to a garngo.
Of course, $5,000,000 per party Is still a very
large sum, but not so shocking as It may seem.
Many a private corporation spends as much or
more on a single advertising spread to sell the
American people a cigarette, a soap, a safety razor
blade or a new kind of gum. Why should It cost
any less to sell tho people a presidential name?
As a mattor of fact the campaign will cost each
party much more than $5,000,000 for that sum
represents only what each national organization
will spend. Eoch of tho stronger local branches In
tate and county and city will be having Its own
campaign chest, part of which will go lo help the
national cause aleng.
fc'here will the parties get the funds? Wei),
that won't be so difficult as It might seem, even
In these hard times. As a rule each Job holder
or prospective Job holder Is expected lo chip In
much as folks do at Charity Cheat time. Then
there are certain very Urge, corporations which
can be expected to lake a friendly Interest In both
campaigns. Finally, there are various wealthy In
dividuals who have a yen tor ambassadorships
and such things. Astute campaign treasurers know
where the money growa and there will be no lost
motions when they begin raising funds.
Political theorists have long preached against
the evils Inherent In this situation. People who
hay beta hoavy donors to political campaigns often
LARGELY BALLYHOO
(Salem (''anirnl. Journal I
RESPITE the barrage of verbal broadsides in the
great battle between President Hoover and Speaker
Garner over the provisions of the relief bill, the
country refuses to get excited about it. A lot of
-u. i iwinn ranea wnue tne ratters ring and the
windows rattle aa the combatants shout the merits
.... P""iruiar P'ons or salvation but this is
poimrai year, one combatant heads and the other
tails a national ticket, each is playing to the galleries
with ballyboo to aecure votes and we let it go at
that.
Mr. Hoover sees a "grave menace" In the proposal
prri-rinajje oi me loans avaiiaoie to
individuals, but a majority of both houses of comtre,
unable to see the menace, approved it, and it is diffl
cut to see why the big concerns should be the only
ones aided. But if there ia anjthing that excites the
president it is federal relief for the jobless. And If
there is anything that Mr. Garner typifies, it is this
form of relief.
For the author of the Federal Farm board and
the Iteconstmrtion Finanre corporation to be horrified
over pork barrel Leislnlinn sounds like Satan rebuking
sin. for both of these Hoover or.ntlAn. k... kl.A.
the world record in the distribute of huge hunks of
f""- "'g mey nare not let the people know what
has become of their money.
Mr- Hoover has shown his eustomnrr inaptitude
iiiiii'imhk mo rniei dim. msteao of exerting pressure
early enough to have the bill modified according to his
wishes, he waits until it gets into conference and when
an agreement is near, butts In creating needless
acrimony nnd then grandstands for the public. Mr.
Warner, who muffed his opportunity to control the
noil on tne safes lax anrt economy programs of his
party, has shown equal ineptitude and sliihhorness in

MATERNITY MORTALITY
EXPECTANT MOTHERS MUST AVOID WORK

(Editor, Journal of the American

THE occurrence of complications
due to KneClRl Const riirt ion nf thm
body which make the process of child-
mnn exceedingly difficult must be
anticipated by a nhvaicinn through
proper study of the patient well in advance.
In instances where difficult i
certainty, ft is frequently desirable for
the patient to go to the hospital a
week or more In advnnce of tho antic
ipated event.
Moreover, the nhvsiclnn nf tmlsr
fa concerned in handling childbirth not
only with the actunl disease of the
patient and with the question of medi
cal care, but also with economic and
social factors, which undoubtedly
have an important bearing on childbirth.
The clrcumstnncea under which the
woman lives, the state of her health
and nutrition, her dnily life and occu
pation may all exemse some effect on
health and on that of the child. An
uqnnitnry ' dwelling with overcrowd--inc.
tnndcminte Htrlitinir nnd ventiln.
tion may he aeriou in their effects
on both mother and bnhy.
If the home conditions are unsatia-1
factory for the woman who expects
to have a child, every effort must be
made to obtain better accommoda
tions, particularly at the time when
the child ia to be born.
Finally, there comes the question
of work. How long shall tho woman
continue to work previous to child-
Dirta; it jias been shown that a pro
Ion gat ion of the process and a reduc
tion in the weight of the newborn in
fant may be the direst consequence
of work continued until the moment
oi cnimnirtb.
Sometimes it is better that a wo
man continue the regular work that
ahe hns been doing as long as possible
m unifr to Keep ner muscular system
in good condition.
In any event, the employment of the
woman should always be under ob
servation, because of the dancer of
certain poison in industry, and par
ticularly because of the danger of un
due faticue or excessive strnin.
In many countries lnwa have been
