An Irresistible Force (From Seattle Post-Intelligencer) The marcel wave has swept many a man off his toet. The School Election Defeat of the excess school levy at Monday's election should not cripple the public schools in any way, though i may force a curtailment in the paternalism which seeks to have the school relieve the parent of responsibility. The present tendency is to make the child virtually a ward of the community at public expense and supplant the home. Health and physical condition and domestic science are pro per subjects for thet parents to look after, at least in the junior grades. The more the community does for the pupil, the greater slackers the parents become by shirking responsibilities belonging to the family. Instead of concerning themselves about their children, parents now expect the public to assume the burden and annually the public takes over, through the philanthropic and humanitarian efforts of welfare workers, more and more of parental responsibility. Supplementing the school paternalism it is deemed neces sary to save youth by outside organizations supported by charity which furnish permanent positions at good salaries for professional entertainers, instructors and disciplinarians. Institutions are maintained for training and amusement, and the neglect by the parent is made more easy. Countless generations of humanity have managed to mature and carry on civilization with the training received at home and in public schools before the schools began to usurp the duties and privileges of the home, and the future of the rising generation will not be menaced if some of the ticg showfng the COBt ot pr0(luctlon educational side-shows ot today should be ;,ghtiy curtanea. The principal object of education is to discipline the mind and teach the child to think and these primary functions are not affected by the economy necessitated by hard times. The difference between efficiepcy and poor management is the ability to secure results by economical management and elimination of waste. There is no cause for gloom in the schools. The board has more money than it ever had, except last year when a special tax was cheerfully voted to place the J Sherman anti-trust law district out of debt. It secures a two mill levy trom state tax ation and $10 per pupil from county taxation, in addition to 8V2 mills school district taxation and there ought to be, and we believe will be, no "general lowering of standards of ef ficiency. If there is, there is something the matter besides lack of funds. Labor Hit High Cost Of Living Abolition of Specula tion In Grain and Corporation Regula tion Are Urged Denver, Colo., June 21. Aboli tion of "gambling in grain futures on the Chicago board of trade," es tablishment of co-operative pro ducers and consumers organiza tions and government regulation of corporations and monopolies, were urged today by the conven tion of the American Federation of Labor as a means to combat the high cost of living. The work of the federal trade commission was commended and congress was urged to provide funds for investigation of all in dustries and publication of statis and marketing of all staple com modities. "If the people are In full pos session of the facts," the declara tion said, "of costs of distribution and the profits made on the neces saries of life, public opinion would have a powerful effect in reducing prices, and there would be no ne cessity of prosecution under the Selah!

Grain Growers Lay Plans For Financing Crop Portland, Or., June 11. Direc tors of lae Oregon Co-operative Grain Growers association met here today to discuss the harvest Drifting Quotations of standard stocks on the New York stock ex change have dropped to the lowest level in 20 years and the market srenerally shows a collapsing tendency bringing ruin to thousands. And the stock panic follows immediately after the adoption by congress of the fake resolution for seperate peace with Germany, which accomplishes nothing but grati fies the senate cabal which rejected the peace treaty. Had the treaty of Versailles been ratified, and the peace of the world insured, the industrial and economic crisis would long since have passed and business been on the mend. Ihe probalibities are that the present low market level would never have obtained. Liberty bonds, which President Harding promised to restore to par, continue to depreciate to new low records, as a reward for partiotic sacrifice. Nothing has been done to maintain the credit of the bond issues, and no plan formu lated for their restoration to par. The only action taKen is that of the Federal Reserve bank, which side-tracked tnem l v i ....: ; ,t A i-Uaoa -fii-rfVipr Hpnrp- in ravor oi non-iaxauie sauiaim emu wn-o. , ciated them as collateral. The emergency tariff proposed as a remedy for tne Tann ers' ills, is in effect. It includes a duty on cnerriesana yet cherries are selling at 4 cents a pound, or less than the tariff duty. Last year, without a tariff, cherries sold for 14 cents. And other products beside cherries given protection in the emergency measure, continue to sell at less than cost of production, illustrating the folly of the tariff cure-all. , The White House passes reconstruction up to congress and congress has no remedy except the old. tariff bunk of 30 years iw which rWrihutors to the campaign fund are rewarded by protective duties on their manufactures. And the nation is left to drift from bad to worse wun me pc-c j. unsettled and foreign markets vanishing and taxation for militarism leading to bankruptcy. But how the press of the country would have raged and stormed, had business gone to perdition under a democratic administration and five million men thrown into idleness! Drifting and with no one at the helm. ALICIA HAMMERSLEY A Woman Who Wouldn't Remarry By IDAH McGLONE GIBSON The Noted Writer In urging the abolition of "gambling in futures" and Un necessary reconsignments and brokerage operations," the resolu tion said "there are too many over turns between the producers and consumers, which ultimately in crease the cost of living." The convention went on record against legislation fixing the wages of the workers, declaring that "if American standards are to be governed by laws enacted by congress made up of men not alive to maintaining those standards the workers - of the country will suffer Irreparable injury fey legis lation governing their wages." An education campaign1 to give the teachers and students of the country the "truth about the labor movement" and "meet the propa ganda in the schools of the coun try in furtherance of the so-called 'open shop,' " was authorized by the delegates.

For the first time I thought of Larry as a bit analytical. Never before had he shown me this side of his mind. "Alix," he said, "are you Just amused or Is there a touch of scorn in your laughter "I am not quite sure whether you are spoofing me and I am not certain whether you know that curiosity Is almost always the ing and financing of the coming great moving power o. u.u .u 1 3 ooo 000 cllnation. muuhisu ju .um.-v.. crop.

Advertising brought i.i on day of publication ,s at advertiser's risk. The Capital Journal are always the greatest fillip to the curiosity of any man who knows you. yet you always make It seem that you exercise this power quite as Innocently as you have done In writing that lMter to Mr. Early. Do you know, or don't vou, that he won't be able to resist trying to find out what kind of a girl it Is who has writ ten that kind ot a letter after all the encouragement he had given her In accepting her stories and writing her personal letters. He will make excuse to come, you may be sure, and if he comes there will be no chance for me." "What do vow mean, ehatfee?"" I asked in the Ternaeular "Oh. what Is the use of telling you? You either laugh at me or say your heart all of It that you1 still have to give Is bound up in the baby over there. There! see! Vou are already begining to quirk up the ewrners of that adorable South of roars. Alls. 8aj." he hMed Irrelevanlr. as he peered taaaiy dera into my face. "I real ly like your mouth better since you hare begun to use a lip-stick." "Good heavens! Larry Wheaton, do I do it as badly as that? I'll never use one again." "Yes you will, but let's don't beg the question." "What Is the question? I thought it was the use ot a lip stick." "You know better than that. You know 1 am going back to col lege day after tomorrow. I have one more year there. Allx. I would really buckle down and do som- Ihinr in this l.-wt .fF If I Oinnkl r. - .. . " ' " . there was any hope for me with-J you after it was finished." There! was a glint in Larry's boyish eyes' and an appeal ot youth in his whole manner that was wonderful. I admit I felt the thrill of It "But, dear boy, a widow older than you and a baby. Aren't you courageous to saddle yourself with such a large contract at the beginning ot your career?" "There you have said it. I feel that I will have no career if you don't help me to make it. I have told you many times. Alix. dear, that I love the baby. Am I so young and foolish that you can not love me a little" "Oh, Larry, lrry, you are a dear thing, most dear. And I love you no, do not mistake me I love you too much not to under stand that you are not for me. Why, yon would hate both baby aad me If we were hanging aruuad your neck all the time. "The present, dear boy. is yoar youth time, your play time, and you want a girl to play around with, not a woman aid a baby to load you down with responsibili ties. " "You want romance, and I would feel myself a traitor to your sincerity if I gave you reality. In after years, dear boy, you will forgive me for choosing to become a memory instead of a part of your menage." "I don't agree with you at all, aux. rotrre not old. I think you are only a year or so older than I, and what does that mean uuwauaysr rou just don't love me, that's all. I knew it from tne rirst. Some day a man will come who will wake you up. I need not tell you how I shall envy him, but whatever you are to any OtllOI man I . ... juu uuve given me something that you cannot give him. You will always be to me my Madonna of Blessed Memory." And then Larry, with the romance and enthusiasm, the fervor and sweetness of youth, continued: "Because of my love for you, Alix. I shall respect, regard and revere all other women. Oh, I have heard other men talk of their first loves, and how they found out the falsity, the vanity and the utter irresponsibility of women from them. I wonder if you know Alix. that just as many women rob men of their faith in women as there are men who "betray the lann ot women in men? "But you, Alix, have been an angel. You have never led me to ueueve mat you could ever love me as a wife, and yel I hoped because I wanted to hope. Oh Alix, Alix! Don't you think that I could make you happy? No other man that you will ever know would try as hard to do so." I felt my eyes till with tears I lost my sense. I did not want Larry, with all his splendid ideals, to go away from me utterly In voluntarily I held oflt my hand. "Darling, darling!" exclaimed Larry rapturously, and befere 1 could recover myself I was In his arms and he was almost smother ing me with kisses. Tomorrow Alicia's Parting with Larry.

Bower last night on complaint of Miss Rosa Batallon, about 20 years of age, who charges that Mattin Is the father of her child, born in January. Young Mattin, the son of Mr. and Mrs. E. E.

Kid Norfolk, negro light' heavy weight who has been clamoring for a match with Jack Dempsey, today joined the heavyweight champion's staff of sparring part ners and probably will work with him for the balance of the train ing grind. Norfolk Is regarded as one of the leading light heavy weights of the country. He is ag gressive, a clever boxer and Man ager Kearns thinks he can de velop Dempsey'B speed. Norfolk is the first of a number of high class boxers who will be brought into camp to put Dempsey on edge in the final ten days ot his training. There is a possibility that Battling Ghee may be dropped from the champion's staff because of his inclination to keep away from Dempsey instead of forcing the chamipon to extend himself. Ghee, who was knocked down three times and had two teeth knocked loose the first time he boxed Dempsey, managed to keep out ot range yesterday. Larry Williams appears to be the only sparring partner in camp who gives Dempsey any kind of a workout. Yesterday Dempsey nearly scored a clean knockdown over the blond sparring partner, with a right hook to the jaw. Yesterday the champion in creased his boxing to eight rounds for the first time since he started training. The crowds which wit ness the daily workout at Demp sey's outdoor camp 'are getting larger each day. Women specta tors are numerous and they ap- plaud the champion as he goes through his paces. I Shingles Now Made h Salem For the first time, singles are being manufactured in Salem by a new mill installed by the Spauld lng company recently with a ca pacity of 30,000 -shingles daily. Much of the cedar for the shingles comes from the company tracts at Black Rock, where some excep tionally fine timber is being work ed off. Most of the shingles will go on the local market, according to the plans of the company. Alleged Speeder Is Assessed $10; Second Arrested A. J. Mitchell, who was arrest ed by Officer White on a speeding charge, had his hearing in the po lice court yesterday. He pleaded guilty and paid a fine ot $10. Alfred Fox was yesterday even ing arrested by Motorcycle Patrol man Miller Hayden and was charged with operating his auto mobile without a tail light burn ing. He is cited to appear in the police court this afternoon.
