FAMILY RESPONSIBILITY ; Zit hns ong been established in the law of Oregon that -immediate relatives who are financially able are responsible Ifor the care of needy parents. The rule still holds, good in ;these days of old age and other forms of public assistance, land welfare committees are obligated to take resources of ;this nature into account in determining eligibility for assis tance, - J That such legislation was ever necessary is not a pleasant "commentary on the quality of the relationship that has existed ."between members of a family. In the ordinary, normal family there is never any question of caring for parents who are in tneed but there is a long record of neglect on the part of some 'children and it is on that account that the law was enacted. iThat' record, in late years, has been added to in sad measure as family degeneration has set in as a consequence of the new types of government welfare and relief now in effect. Many a Ifamily, once too proud to let the old folks go on relief, has lost Jits pride and tried to avoid the responsibility that both legally and morally belonged to it. There are even cases on record .where an attorney has been employed to help to secure assis tance in spite of the absence of real need. I -Cases of this nature often make difficulty for welfare committees. In many instances the interest of the public and .the official members of the committee clash, the former being concerned, more especially with financial and budgetary issues and the latter, too often, with questions of personal popularity , and individual politics. ' .-To. some extent persons who, on the point of age alone, have IJiecome eligible for old age assistance look on assistance as a ;pension and therefore a right regardless of any other con siderations. Herein confusion arises that should be dispelled. Jn the whole situation the welfare committees are entitled ;rgenerous public support They are engaged in a thankless ..task and in doing it they stand between the taxpayer and, in rimany cases, groups whose only words are those of the horse leech's daughters. H An annual feature of the Oregon City "Territorial Days" celebration is the souvenir edition of the Oregon City Enter prise. The fourth of these editions has just come to the edi torial desk and, like its predecessors, has been examined with ..interest and pleasure. In its many feature articles this edition Iells the story of pioneers and their activities recreating fox ;;today the lives of the past. As always the Enterprise has done good job. OREGON EDITORIALS A USELESS LAW (CorvUlis Gazette-Times) Ijnerce has asked bordering states to "close their motor vehicle registration ..stations on their borders. This would yix a sensible thing to do. They serve . Jio good purpose whatever. They an "noy tourists and make traveling less pleasant. For instance, at Ashland, Ijfirst town a California car comes to ..after crossing the border, there is a big sign to the effect that "tourists ;;MUST register HERE." As a matter ..of fact, they do not have to do any . .thing of the kind. The sign is merely a Chamber of Commerce scheme for Jmaking a motorist stop. He may be ..inla hurry to get to Canada, but it ..makes no difference. He is not ac quainted with the law and thinks he has to stop and register. Uhe official state highway signs are .less offensive. They merely state .'that visiting cars must register in the 'state, California signs are similar, "bQt, when we visited California, we ..inquired at nail a dozen places, in cluding one police station, and none of them knew where we had to reg "Jisjer nor how long we could remain ill the state without registering. One a. policeman was so ashamed of his .ignorance that we went to headquar ters to look it up. The police cap a Jtaln didn't know either, and rustled ..around to find a book of rules. He finally found one and then couldn't find the law. We asked for the book, J lked in the index and found it for ..him. It cost us about 45 minutes time. After that we made no inquir ies, and got out of California without registering. As a result we didn't . .h&ye to wash a sticker oil our wind- shield. We trust the California Chamber of Commerce suggestion is taken seriously, for having to stop and reg ister a car is a silly remnant of the hectic days when traveling over a 'state line was an event " "BULLDOZES" ORCHARD ..Scbastol Pol.

Bui Yard lev had a reason tor watching Christine. George WUmet employed Chris tine as a Boardwalk artist. . - - Chandra looked into the future and into the past Yesterday: Police, investigating the murder in Christine's booth, detain her for questioning. The victim had been drugged, killed with a dagger. Bill identifies the murdered woman as Mrs. Emma Talbert, Christine s cousin! - ., CHAPTER VII For a moment Christine hardly heard what was being said. For that moment she stood, isolated by shock, torn by a pang of affection she had never before known she felt for the formally kind, but painfully repress ed woman she remembered as Cousin Emma, but had never really known. Oh. Cousin junmal she tnougnt. l don't believe vou were ever very happy. ... I might have been much nicer to you. When she came back to her sur roundings, the inspector was asking the doorman, Have you noticed any thing unusual around here in the last two hours? "Well" the doorman hesitated "about half after 11 I did see this voung lady regretfully he indi cated Christine "come along and stop right here; then her boy friend comes running up those stairs irom the beach, and they hurry off to gether. . . . But first she takes him under the Twentieth Century lights and kind of looks him over." Christine flinched as she thought of that moment while she and Bill stood there, laughing and talking with Cousin Emma perhaps already lying there like that a few feet away. "Looks him over?" the inspector snapped. What do vou mean.' "1 know what he means." the wait ress stopped snapping her gum long enough to put in. "1 seen them, too; and ne was dripping wet. - Why, Christine remembered with an unpleasant start Bill had been wet. . . . ne had said "Sav lookit!" The newsbov. who had been staring at Bill, pointed a grimy forefinger. "I see him before all right. I sold all my tomorrow morning's papers by 10:30; and I was out along the Boardwalk. And I seen him in a parked car. He was lcaniii' out as if he was waitin' for some thing." The inspector turned to Bill. "What's your name?" he demanded. William Yardley." 'Oh. ves run the ridins school. don't you? .... And you say you knew Mrs. Talbert?" "I did." ed, the concrete was badly cracked. A fragment moved under her I itinera. . . At least, site took it for a fragment of the wall unli. slio reulized Ihnt it was smooth to her touch as satiny smooth as silver thut had just been polished. Afterwards, she re mom be rod thinking that nciilly tu it wiw fitted into the crevice outwent tho blocks of colcreto, no one could have huped to hide a dagger them for long von such a slvndvr one She heui'd Ivoitwlf saying In o unuU, thin voice, "1 think I've found soma, thing, Inspector." Then ul sight uf Out stain on tlia bliido, she cried out und flung the weapon cluttering lu the flour. A limn gathered It up In a clean hundkcrclilvf us tenderly ua If it had been a new-born babe. "I'll look this over, Chief," he said. "Although t doubt If (hero are uny finger-prints left." "There'll bv mlno," Christine auld faintly. The inspector trvutod her to a brief, sardonic grin. "Why, so there wllll" ha agreed. "So it wus lust us easy as that. . . . Maybe you boys hud batter have an other look around before tills young luily finds the niunivrvr under a piece of seaweed, with a ilmwd con fession under his arm neatly tied up in pink ribbon." He swung Irom his subordinates to the uthers. "1 think." he shut at them, "thut we'll run over to mv officii tu flnUh this session you und you and you' and you, I mean." lie uidU'ilttid I Christine, Hill, Mr. Wllmvt and tho disreputable object who couldn't be lievubly bo Cousin Emilia's iiumnc uluto Juspar, and yet who was. "The rest i you leave vour adradsses." "Do you mean." Bill asked, as the dismissed witnesses straggled dis appointedly away, "that we're under arrest?" "Not yet. When I arrest people (or murder." the Inspector snld dryly, "they slnv arrested." lie looked it. Christine thought examining him for the first time. And yet, under happier circumstances, she felt that she might have liked and trusted him. He was an erect man of early mid dle ago, with a direct, non-committal blue gaze, und a quietly incisive voice. He hud tho upocarunce of one who might be imuoraoiiully fair so long as he knew that you were hon est with him, but Imolucable to any whom he suspected of lying. And already she had deceived him by her tacit ucouirniicnce to the name by which Mr. Wilmut had Introduced her. It was going to bo difficult to explain Unit under those uncom promising eves. I must tell him who I really um at once, Christine thought. Perhaps I can talk to him alone. But talking to Inspector Parsons alone did not prove to bo easy. (To Be Continued) The inspector took a small dark object from his pocket , Hecognize thisr he asked. 'I ought to," Bill said after a brief . inspection. "It's my key holder." I 1 wonder it youd be interested to know where it was found?" 'I should, rather. Bill looked ' faintly sheepish. "I hadn't even miss- ! ed it Lucky it had my name on it" : The inspector surveyed him for a moment; then he coolly reclaimed the keys and said, "It. was found on , yte beach near a rowboat that hadn t any business to be where it was. That boat may nave some connection with Mrs. Talbert s death." "I saw that bout I had a little run- in with a fellow right about there earlier in the evening." i You d better explain. ! "Nothing to explain." Bill looked as if he could have kicked himself for speaking. "I was doine mv best tp pin his ears back, but ho showed more speed than I looked tor." 1 Who was this man? , "If you don't mind." Bill said olcas- antly. "we won't go into that any further at present . . . However, here he comes now. Perhaps he'll want to tell you all about it but, I don't think so." Two uniformed men pushed into the booth, holding between them , a disreputable object in rubber wading boots. Aside from the boots, he wore a soiled pail of flannel trousers, a tattered shirt, and a greasy hat. "Here's that beachcomber we found down by the boat Inspector," one of the men said. "Ho made a break for it and we had to chase him half way to Key West." ', Christine looked at the man with interest She had seen severn! men in rubber boots, wading about in the DacKwash ot low tide that mcirninu poking with long sticks in the sand occasionally stooping to pick some thing up and examine it. When she had asked Mr. Wilmet if they were fishing, he had replied. "Well in a way. They're beachcombers, nftan they find coins, and sometimes even jewelry." ; Evidently Bill had not confined his etiorts to the pinning back of cars. One of the man's eves was almost closed. ... Yet Christine looked at him in unbelievinuT recoirnitinn. anH found him staring at her with a kind of dismayed pleading. The inspector glanced sharply from one to the other of them and de manded, "Evor seen this man before. Miss?" Christine hesitated. , . Of course it couldn't be yet it was. In spite of his generally disreputable appearance, the man in boots was unmistakably Cousin Emma's irreproachable but ler, Jaspar. : . She put out a hand to steady herself against the wall of tho booth. . - a a a , At the point where her hand rest- BllsjjTiIpl HAND IN HAND WITH 'tsiuisiiGaiss This bank believes in the American system of free enterprise.
