"SAFEGUARDING AMERICA"
T- RANCE has unofficially notified the United States that
r1 she contemplates an invasion of the Ruhr basin for the
reason Germany has not compHied with the requirements
regarding disarmament.
There are reports that the Russian soviet government is con
centrating troops on the Bessarabian border with the plain in
tent of making war iri the spring. It is even considered probable
that several nations of Europe outside of the Balkans may be
drawn into the fray. Poland is almost certain to be involved and
France feels called upon to give aid to Poland.
Meanwhile the attitude of the United States toward the
League of Nations.remains rincertain. There are conflicting re
ports as to the view of the president-elect and if Mr. Harding
x has decided in his own mind what do he has not yet informed
the world as to his intention.
The one tangible development thus far has been the Borah
resolution providing suspension of new navy building through
cgreement with England and Japan. It is a move that will have
strong backing because of the economy in such a course and the
further fact Great Britain will welcome it as a safeguard for
England's present mastery of the sea.
But if Uncle Sam is to stay out of the league and out of any
practical working plan for enforcing peace can we afford to stop
improving the navy?
If President Wilson was too idealistic in advocating the
League of Nations what about the "visionaries" who ask Ameri
ca to disarm in the mere hope that other nations will do like
wise? Can we afford to throw dur powder away while Ger
many still remains defiant and the Russians are ready to cut the
throat of any "bourgoise" country that manifests a weakness for
such treatment?
r Having criticised President Wilson for lack of preparedness
the opposition now has its inning and from appearances will im
prove -its shining hour by stopping naval progress and reducing
Ihe army to impotency. Is that the way to "safeguard Amer
ica"? .
JAIL FCR DRUNKEN DRIVERS
JAIL sentences for men who dri'e cars while drunk is be
coming the slogan in many places In Portland there has
been such agitation cn the subject that it is now a com
mon thihg to read of a drunken driver going to jail That a sim
ilar sentiment towards inebriated drivers is felt in Spokane is in
dicated by the following expression by the Spokesman-Review :
In police court Tuesday a man .convicted of driving an automobile while he.
vas drunk was allowed by Justice Witt to pay a fine of $75 and coKts and to
depart in peace. . . :, ,
In this way traffic ordinance enforcement is) made a joke, and the public
highways are made unsafe for the law-abiding. When a drunken man drives
an automobile he is not in any particular danger. Drunks are seldom hurt In
automobile accidents. Their condition, seems to operate as a sort of insurance
bgainst personal mishap. Cut there is real peril for sober fclk:', on fool or
driving cars.
To be guilty of driving1 a car while drunk the man had to have fractured
two sets of laws the prohibition statutes and the traffic code. If he had killed
a man through his crazy driving, he would have pleaded Irresponsibility, and
would, of course, have been duly remorseful after the damage had been done.
His penalty was about equivalent to the price of half a dozen "bottles of
contraband whiskey. As punishment, it amounted to nothing at all. A few
days in jail would have made him very reluctant ever to do it again. But if a
man has plenty of funds, the fact that he may have to pay a small fine does
t ot dter him from going on a tear.
The number of fatalities and serious accidents resulting from reckless driv
Ifg is alarming. There are now three manslaughter cases before the superior
.court, all arising from too much speed and too little caution. That the man
who was fined in police court failed to kill anybody is not his fault. He did his
by getting drunk and trying in that coudition to drive his car.
Justices of the peace apparently are determined not to put teeth in the
traffic laws. What can they be thinking of ?
Were a man to get drunk and start firing a pistol on a crowd
ed thoroughfare the matter would not be considered as a lark.
He would be locked up. The drunken driver is just as much a
menace and should be so treated for the public safety
The Umatilla Commercial Club will hold another meeting
soon to discuss chances of developing the Umatilla rapids power
site for irrigation purposes and other uses. Later on they want
the aid of Pendleton and all other northwest people who can be
induced to lend a hand. No doubt such aid will be freely given.
The development of the Umatilla rapids would not only be the
making of Pendleton but would revolutionize this entire section.
Chairman White says the democrats will be glad to have
the republicans steal their progressive principles and put them
into use. Also they will be w illing to let the G. O. P. try the ex
periment of cutting living costs by increasing prices while they
strengthen the national defense by scuttling the navy and de
pleting the army
In Washington a woman has been arrested for picking her
husband's pockets; the cause of men's rights may meet many
discouragements but it will eventually triumph.
Some people do not enthuse over good statuary or good mu
fc but that is no reflection on art.
For the next 40 days the Salem date line will be in the lime
light. That is right, roast the British for the oil shortage it is al
ways easy to blame some one else for your troubles.
