Ym. th charge was biamjr. : (Copyrmht. 1922, by Kdjcar A. Guest.) WHEN THE SUNLIGHT WAS TURNED ON 1MIE grand jury has spoken and its report is thorough and conclusive. It is the answer to the wild and hysterical t' charges that certain county and city officers are steeped in corruption and incompetency. Taken into the sunlight ci an oathbound inquiry by Umatilla county's duly au thorised investigating body the corruption accusations fell flat. It was apparently a case of total collapse Tor after exam ining over 125 witnesses, spending many days in a thorough search for the truth the grand jurors found no evidence to jus tify the charges made. The people may justly place faith in the grand jury's report. It ia made by fair minded and disinterest ed men, they had a capable and disinterested outside attorney as their, legal advisor. Apparently the jury'left no stones un turned. " Any bootlegger off ering testimony had the opportunity to do so. without fear on his own account because the prohibition law provides that when one testifies in such a case his own tes tim6ny cannot be used against him. Under these conditions may be assumed that those who. wished to "get" he officers did their utmost in that 'direction and failed because their charges lacked merit. Therefore the findings of the grand jury comes $s a vindication of the officials as far as charges of corruption are concerned and the facts are to the credit of the men who were under attack. . . The grand .jury has pleased many by reviewing the cases in detail and by giving its judgment as to some actions that should be taken in the future. Its stand for the protection of individ ual rights regarding search warrants is well taken. There is need of care along that line. , 'fThere is another side to the law enforcement subject and it is that an officer of the law also has some rights that should be respected. An officer stands between the public and the acts of lawless men. He at times risks his personal safety and some times his life. He fills a difficult position for small pay. lie is entitled to support and should have it. We cannot expect an of ficer to be an angel with wings but we have a right to demand that he be free from corruption while an officer and that he have the physical and moral courage to perform his duty. On the other, hand he has a right to demand that his good name should be treated with the same consideration usually given to the good repute of other men. He should not be slandered and people will do well to demand proof when an officer's reputa tion is assailed and to give scant heed to complaints that do not flcem well founded. If the East Oregonian understands the temper of the people of Umatilla county they desire law enforcement and square dealing all around. They cannot justly expect miracles from any one but they have n right to demand good faith and they will make their demands clear whenever the occasion permits. Naturally the success of all government in a free country rests ultimately with the people themselves. It is up to every rUht- nunaeu citizen to put his mtluence lirmly back of good govern ment and against any or all who would violate the laws of the land or the established rules of society.

(Written for International News Service.) XKW YOTtK, Feb. 1. Women nre responsible for ono of the Kreatest menaces that threaten our country to day. It Is not the ignorant, untrained, stupid woman who can be blamed for the danger that hovers near. Not the, woman In the backwoods, In moun tain hovel, in benighted out-of-the-way vlllaye or the poor creature who stifles in crowded tily tenement. The I fault Ues elsewhere. The superior woman Is to blame. She too often remains single wil fully a celibate. She will not be the wife to any but him who conforms to her own im possibly IiIkIi Ideals of what a Perfect Male should be. And there Is no such perfect crea ture to be found in this faulty world of ours. So she will not wed. So l(nce Suffers. Therefore, our Superior Woman cannot be a mother. She cannot transfer her best characteristics to another generation. The race suffers for lack of the children she nilnht have had. True she often leaves a legacy of achievement In art, science, literature, or lit service to Immunity at large, but along with this abo might leave us well several children In whom her finest qualities might ugaJn serve. Jtoswell H. Johnson, of the faculty of the University of Pittsburg, in a recent Address advised his audience: Mate with the best, but If you enn't do that, niato with the best available. Don't Unit for Ideal. In other words, don't wait all your life for a Prince Charming or an Ideal Woman-. If they do not appear, re member that John Smith or Mary Jones will make you a good husband or wife and that through your children you will have done your duty to the race and lis future." The college instructor emphasized I this point : j "Superior women especially are j likely to remain wilfully celibate, be- I causo they look for too much for j more than they can have. j "And wilful celibacy is one of thei most serious menaces we have to face." Queens Itefused to Weil. In past nges great women have re mained single. Elizabeth of :Knglaiul will ho remembered ns the Virgin CJueen. Catherine of Russia would not wed. Kosa llonhour shunned ; men 1ut left the world works of art I of great, value. Florence Nightingale became an angel of mercy to many but did not choose to establish family ties j of her own. America has notable instanos of great spinsters. Susan P. Anthony and Frances Willunl were prominent In the past, and in this present day there is Anne Morgan, cultivated wo man of the world and philanthropist. None but each one of these women will ever know just why she didn't marry. But scientists all agree that women of ability and worth ought to many and become motheis. Modern Life Is Illumed. Modern life, with Us upartment dwelling luxuries and rush of business and professional life, has been blamed by Dr. D. A. Sargent, of Harvard Uni versity. He scores women who are, not "the marrying kind." "The ruin of any nation starts when ! Its better-class women cease to become : mothers," he says. "It follows that! superior races do not huvo as many) children as the inferior ones, destroy ing. It would seem, the doctrine of the survival of the fit test. Today that is1 so, but it Is because the question is not I one or the fittest surviving, but the fitting of us many as possible to sur vive." To give the superior woman a chance to defend herself is only fair, ami wo cannot choose a better spokes man for her cause than Lesbla. one of the principal characters in llernard Miaw s celebrated eomedv.
