Newspaper Page TextPAGE FOUR THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON" THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 23, i922 Capitaournal Salem. Orgon An Independent Newspaper. Published every rentns except Sunda Telephone 81; newi 81 GEORGE PUTNAM, Editor and Publisher The Ku Klux Klandidate Senator Charles Hall of Marshfield, who was nominated for governor by the Ku Klux Klan and other secret organ izations in the "Federation of Patriotic Societies" has an nounced his platform. It consists of nine planks skillfully drawn to capitalize discontent by vague generalities of economies. The feature of the platform, and the one upon which Mr. Hall received endorsement of the secret societies, along with the Anti-Japanese plank, reads aa follows: The public school la one of the fundamental factors In our system of government. I favor compulsory attendance in the primary grades. Teach pure Americanism to all pupils, beginning at an early age. Continue to strengthen and build up this typical Amer ican institution. Stripped of its verbiage, this plank means the abolition of the parochial, church and private school and the compulsory attendance of all children, regardless of parents' desires, at public school. For the first time religious and racial issues are raised in: a state election in Oregon in an attempt to eliminate by sumptuary laws, the bill of rights guaranteed by the con stitution. This is the idea of "pure Americanism" referred to by the apostles of intolerance. The election promises to be the bitterest and hardest fought in years and to create a new alignment in politics.

It is estimated that a tax of 20 cents a gallon, based upon the consumption of beer before the war would yield an annual revenue of f400,000,000, while the prohibition of distilled and vinuous liquors would probably increase the sale of beer so as to yield $600,000,000, ample to finance the bonus The Eighteenth amendment to the Constitution does not prohibit the manufacture or sale of beer, but of "intoxicating beverages." The supreme court has decided that congress has the power to determine what percent of alcohol can be in all beverages. The Volstead act makes the limit one-half of one percent, though as a matter of fact two and a half or three percent beer is not held intoxicating by authorities. In addition to providing a bonus, the giving at the same time of beer, a non-intoxicating beverage to the soldiers, would make immensely for the popularity of congress with the soldier vote as most of the service men resent the pas sage of prohibition during their absence abroad. Whether or not anti-beer forces, which recently forced congress to deny beer even to the sick, are strong enough to hold congress against the beer and bonus pressure, remains to be seen. Advocates of beer declare that the passage of a beer bill will go far to puttting the boot-legger and moonshiner out of business, by providing a legalized beverage to take the place of illegal strong spirits. Such a law will mean a great deal for the prosperity of the Willamette valley as it will insure a market for hons for which th .... -. ... tu reach out for power seems to uuer me expiration oi existing contracts with English be irresistible.

Under his admin istration it would have been en tirely successful, and have served its community efficiently and well. For his successor, however, this condition would have been fraught with serious danger. It is eminently proper that the government should exercise cer tain supervision over thse insti tutions, but the policy of placing political appointees in complete control and management is wrong and should be changed. Thre is not the incentive for impartial service that exists where these po sitions are held subject to the will of the owners. uur legislators in congress are displaying a commendable spirit of helpfulness, and whatever remedial legislation mav be enact ed will naturally be alone the lines of greatest pressure. The selfishly Interested minority may always be counted on being on the ground to press its claims. Should we therefore remain dormant and allow matters to drift without voicing our needs and desires, we shall only have ourselves to blame if the other fellow gets what he wants and we, the majority, are overlooked. Instead then of attacking and pulling down splendid structures, let us strengthen and build up. where weakne?? may develop, for in this way only may we rearh perfection as nearly as human ef fort may hope to attain.

At the Studio "Kitty, please don't say again that I am in love. Can't you un- dersand that Theodore btrauon and I are only friends." Oh this Platonic business huh! I have never unaersioou what old Plato was getting at. He was a man wasn't he? If he was," averred Kitty, "he knew he was going to get a lot of men and women into trouble by this stuff he stands for. Oh, I for got, John Storm wants to know if we will come out to his house and spend the day next Sunday. How about it?" Not really, Kitty." 'Why not?" 'Why he Is a minister!" 'What has that got to do with it?- He said we could go to church and listen to him in the morning or stay at home and rest, which ever we wanted to do. And I ex Dlained that listening to him would put me to sleep anyway. ) told him we would come, though Kitt?, why do you talk to me of Theodore Stratton when you know that your case with John Storm Is much worse and likely to be much more tragic in the end." Kitty's face clouded and I was covered with contrition. I hast ened to tacitly apologize. "Don't think, Kitty, dear, that if you love John Storm you are not good enough for him or any other man. But I am just thinking of that jealous world outside." "Oh, I know, Virgie. I know. But I just can't help it. He is so splendid and so honest. And Virgie, I think, I really think, he likes me a little." Of course he does. Kitty, be cause you are splendid and hon est, too. I would make him a good wife," she whispered wistfully almost to herself. "And I can't understand any difference be- ween our cases at all. The world wouldn't find any fault if Theo dore Stratton who has had many love affairs and whose reputation regard to women is the worst possible marrying you, my dear. And, Virginia, you are the sweet est, most innocent girl I have ever known. They should turn its thumbs down when I ask for grace because, when I was innocent as: you are I loved a man wel enough to give my soul into his keeping and he. having tired of it, Just naturally gave it to the world to pick and tear to pieces Oh, come on, I am going to have liver and onions tonight." How like Kitty that was. She wouldn't allow herself to be any thing but prosaic for more than five minutes at a time. Poor child! Her life's tragedy must have cut deeper than I thought. Jack Thompson joined us at the little Chinese restaurant over our liver and onions and his inconseq uential gos3ip was exactly the thing we needed. It sent us both home to bed and to sleep. I spent the next day buying clothes. It was so nice to have enough money again. Kitty had transferred H.00O of Ria's money to my account and had told me to check against It for what I wantod and to nay bar when I could. The clothes I bought were what I liked and thought that "Theo wnntd want me to wear. I felt my face grow hot as I realiied that already I was using a dimin utive of Theodore Stratton's name. "Theo, Theo," I repeated caressingly. I must have murmered his name aloud, for the salesgirl said: "1 beg your pardon, 1 didn't un derstand." This brought me back to earth and as soon as possible I finish ed my shopping list and, having found that the sport suit I need ed for the morrow fitted perfectly I told them I would take It with me, the others to be sent the next day. On my way home I gave an order that there should be an ex tra lock put on my apartment. I determined that I should prepare myself against thieves in the fu ture. But, alas, I forgot to lock up my heart! The first two days at the studio I had very little to do except, as Mr. Stratton said: "To be my own sweet self." Maud Sanson became more and more indifferent every hour until at the end of the second day she would not even speak to me. It became harder and harder for me to act unconscious of he snubs particularly In scenes which we had together. As she grew cold er, Theodore Stratton grew more friendly and I began to understand what Kitty meant when she said that the director would probably elaborate my part per Theo's di rection. The afternoon of the second day I found myself more In evidence as regarded the close-ups than the script had promised when I read it. "You'll stay for the rushes. Miss Winston," Theo called to me as I started for my dressing room. "We can see those shots taken yesterday on the screen tonight." "Oh, are we going to see our selves tonight?"
