THE CAPTAIN SHOULD CAPTAIN MURMURS of complaint because of the leaderless and in active state of affairs at Washington are being very freely tieard from representative newspapers, regardless , of politics. The Chicago Tribune is the most noted republican paper In the nation and its version of affairs at the capitol is given in the following editorial from the Tribune of June 24 : Nearly four months have passed since the present administration took of fice and more than three months since the current session of congress began. Jl must t a somewhat partial judgment that would assert that the record of progress up to this time is impressive. It is, on the contrary, rather vacant. Republicans may tell themselves that the problems confronting congress and th executive are especially difficult, perhaps tinprecedentedly difficult. Certainly no one would counsel snap judgments or a haste which would com plicate relief rather than accomplish it. But there would be more encour agement in the situation if there were clearer signs of progress. The signs are not propitious. For example, tax legislation having been postponed to tariff making, con gress is apparently enmeshed in log rolling and lobbying and shows no sign of rising to a (constructive and national conception of tariff policy. Organized groups and interested minorities are at work, and unless these develops some broad and aggressive leadership we shall have an old fashioned patchwork which will very Insufficiently clothe the new needs and interests of the coun try. Meanwhile nothing is done to correct our ineffective and demoralizing taxation. National defense Is being Sacrificed, as in the past. The veterans are given talk largely instead of practical help. We are still at war w ith cen tral Europe, here is, in short, a lack of vigor and definite purpose under the capitol dome which, considering the times, is anything but reassuring. Perhaps this is apeparance rather than reality. Perhaps under a surface cf Inaction congress is formulating and carrying forward broad and sound measures. But If it is not dozing or muddling. It would be helpful to the coun try to be given a glimpse of real movement and direction. "Lack of vigor and definite purposes" expresses the situa tion. The captain is not captaining and the very newspapers that denounced Wilson as an atuocrat because he was a real ex ecutive are trying to get Harding lo emulate his vigor. At that they are right. FROM 1831 TO 1921. WHEN A. H. Rugg was born in 1831 Andrew Jackson was serving his first term as president of the United States. . Many men were then alive who had been with vv ash ington at Yorktown and with "Old Hickory" at New Orleans Railroad transportation had been started. However, there were but a few miles of road and the railroad car was built on the lines of a stage coach but was not as safe for travel. There were no electric lights, no autos, no telephones, no cables, no cook stoves. In the single life of this one beloved and sturdy citizen the world saw changes so phenomenal that they might reasonably have taken a thousand years for their accomplish ment. It is a wonderful thing to contemplate. But vastly as civilization has altered there is much that is the same as in the days of old. Love and hate, gladness, grief, the joy of children, devotion to duty and to country, faith in God and humankind still remain and always will and they are the chief things after all. "Lord God of Hosts be with us yet Lest we forget; lest we forget." WALL STREET MISJUDGED BRITISH LABOR PARTY IN i CONVENTION DEMANDS THAT PEACE TREATY BE SCRAPPED Would Establish Diplomatic Corps to Keep in Touch With Labor Movement of World. LONDON, June 28. (By Earl C. Reeves, I. N. S. Staff Correspondent) "That in the opinion of the conference t the time has come lor the party to build up its own diplomatic service, and by mtans of special commissions be able to keep in constant touch with similar movements in all oti.er coun tries." sjaf; The above resolution presented at the annual conference of tha lai)-:' Party, in its second day's session to day, strikingly illustrates U.e inter national outlook of the post-war labor i movement. I "That the conference hei'hv in-1 structs the national executive to take I the opinion of all affiliated org.iniia- I tions upon the desirability of creating large fighting fund for parliament ary contests," another proposal which has been forwarded, reveals the Ijtbor Party growing toward old line party methods in its campaign for domestic political power. The two themes run through the de liberations of the national conference. The party Is again confronted with the problem of its '"foreign relations." It has disassociated itself from the Moscow International. But sections of the party during the present con ference are endeavoring to force a re consideration of this, while yet an other faction is demanding that tho labor party secedo from the Second In ternational. Scrap Treaty. Demand. Further, on the international side, the conference is confronted with resolutions demanding: That reparations be submitted to u commission of neutral States. That reparations be settled by a League of Nations Commission. That the party fight the govern ment until the treaty of Versailles is scrapped. That Labor members of Parl!ament be condemned for cowardice in not fighting the government on the in demnity policy of "an iniquitous trea ty." That Britain start immediately t gradual withdrawal from its subject colonies, virtually dismembering th Kmpire. Various proposals, all sympathetic to the republican movement, are put forward for settlement of thi Irl-Jh question. The keynote of tho ma jority of theso is withdrawal of Crown forces from Ireland. ment the Independent Labor Part, proposes that the conference "con demn the indifference and negli gence of the government in dv.!ln-j with this acute problem and declares that the government in this, as in other matters, has forfeited the con fidence of the country. The resolu tion, further, "calls upon the Sti'f; immediately to organize national works of reconstruction upon na ox- tensive scale, such as housing, the ' construction of necessary puolic buildings, schools and roads, schemes of afforestation, of elect ricul develop ment and of transport." and to or ganize production and distribution to ! supply social needs." Solution to I'lit-mplo) incut. The Brighton and Hove Labor Party , is seeking the approval of a gencr-l i decliation of principles which de clares that the right to live is the in alienable right of every citizen, I hat possession of adequate food, clothing, shelter and all other necessary tli'nifi is therefore the birthright or eve-v citizen, "independent of the. perform ance of work, which is, however, a duty devolving on all who are capa ble of performing it."

We Buy for Cash and Sell for Cash Better Merchandise at Lowest Prices - Clascow labor declares the only permanent solution of unemployment is "the complete reorganization of in- i , prilm dustry on a democratic basis." I 28 YEARS AGO Among other demands which are j being presented for the approval of I the national body are the following: ; That the land of Great Britain shall be deemed to be the property of the people. Nationalization of the mining in dustry. P.eorganization of agriculture. Kree trade between nations. Knsure the right of free speech. Kclease of political prisoners. Itcpeal of the Emergency Powers Act, which gives the government virtual martial law power in time of industrial upheaval. Public ownershipof the liquor trade. Increase educational opportunities. Health and industrial Insurance and old age pensions. Slothers' pensions. Proportional representation. It is probable that after all the is sues which various bodies ti re raising have been discussed and the official resolutions of the Iabor Party have been passed, a recapitulation of the party's platform will be authorized. Such a task of modification of labor's aims would give the party Kast Oregonlan, 1S93.) lu-re from pilot the Daily Juno 2$, Nelson Hogers is Itock today.

DOINGS OF THE DUFFS OLIVIA DISPLAYS RARE TALENT BY ALLMAN WALL STREET is known to the outside world as a hard street, a heartless and calculating vicinity, reeking with selfishness and the fear that comes of great possessions. Outsiders experience a sinking of the heart on entering those stony precincts and walk circumspectly under the eyes of the omniscient and inscrutable individuals who are at home in banks. Yet among themselves Wall treet people are not so difficult ) lo get along with, evidently. A youth walked into the offices of Redmond & Co., investment bankers, the other day, and asked casually, "ave you any securities to be delivered?" The chief clerk did not know him but it appeared obvious that the young man knew the customs of the locality. The office had at the time only $44,000 in bonds for delivery'. These were turned over to him. He went away and he uiu not come back. In the afternoon the clerk began to worry because the bonds were un delivered, and as time wore on it was borne in upon him that the lad was not a Wall Street lad afte"r all. For the boys of Wall Street, it seems, can be trusted with any amount and to any extent. The street has reached a point in civilization where it is usual to hand out a king's ransom to anybody who happens in, with instructions to deliver it, and then forget the transaction. The Street has been most unjustly regarded. It has been supposed cold, cynical, watchful, ready to pounce. In reality, judging by this latest report, taking mon- ty from it is like taking candy from a baby. New York World ...........-. The Commercial Association gets the profits from Happy Canyon, when there are any, and must bear the losses if there are losses ; it seems logical to place the responsibility for the big evening show squarely upon the organization that will win or lose according to the success of the undertaking. Often it pays "to see ourselves as others see us." With that thought in view two East Oregonian men camped as tour-it-la at (he auto camp ground last night and learned quite a little of wht casual visitors are saying about accommodations here. r" i - OLIVIA, THIS GEMTLEKAM SAW YOU DAMCINci AND WANTS TO GIVE YOU A CONTRACT TO GO INTO THE MOVIE.5! I ADMIRE VOUR DANCING -YOU SEEM TO POT YOUR HEART AND SOUL J ' ' ' ' '" ' - CONTRACT TO GO INTO '" ' Civilization's Greatest Achievement Some Eskimos were brought down to Edmonton, Alberta, on official business. , They had never before been south of the Arctic Circle. They had never seen a street, a town, a window, or a wooden door. A bed, a water tap, and an electric light produced completely new sensations. Street cars were unknown to them; telephones unheard of ; trains not to be believed even when beheld. They had never seen an automobile until someone took them riding in one.; They had never set their eyes on an airplane until some one did his most daring stunts in cne to thrill them. They had never even seen a movie! But what do you suppose moved them most in the whole bag of tricks which civilization producedfor their amusement and amazement? What seemed to them Iho greatest wonder of all? The cold storage plants I The White Man didn't always have to hunt and fish when he wanted to eat I Here was civilization's greatest gift, its greatest benefaction. This feature of civilization makes it possible for Swift & Company, in the season of over production, to store a supply of food for distribution in the season of scant, or non-production. Thus we are able to maintain for ail a constant supply of such choice and necessary foods as. Premium Milk-fed Chickens, Brookfield Butter and Brookfield Eggs. Swift & Company, U. S. A.
