No Subsidy Needed
In a narrative of his business career now running serial
ly in "The Nation's Business," Captain Robert Dollar, one
of the most successful of American ship-owners and posses
sor of fleets sailing the seven seas, opposes President Hard
ing's pet scheme of a ship subsidy as superfluous, declaring:
I have been operating ships for a good many years, and I feel that
I ought to know something about the subject. I have always felt that
a shipowner wHo must bare ''pap" from the government doea not
deserve to be in the business. We do not need any advantage over
the other fellow; we can take care of ourselves.
It is a relief in these days of greed and grab, of bonus
begging and subsidy clamoring, of interests seeking special
privilege at public expense, of grafters, pap-hunters and
profiteers, to hear from one imbued with old-fashioned
ideas of commercial honesty and business enterprise, who
asks nothing in the line of special favor, but relies upon his
own initiative, energy and wit to enforce a square deal and
crown his efforts with success.
It was such ideas and such ideals that developed Ameri
ca and created its greatness. From the early pioneers
down, worthwhile Americans have asked no odds of any
one and held their own in competition with the world. The
idea that Uncle Sam exists to dole out special favors to the
individual to make-up for incapacity, or to enrich the few
at the cost of many, is the inspirition of tariffs, subsidies
and bonuses, and responsible for that paternalism which is
destroying initiative and crippling e nterprise, and making
us a nation of clamorous business beggars always crying for
more. . ''
Not only the ship-owner, but the man in any business
who cannot stand on his own bottom, and must have pap
from the government, is not worthwhile and the business
that is similarly dependent, is also not worthwhile. But
the primary idea of pap nowadays Is to get something for
nothing and to inflate profits for monopoly, and the clamor
for its necessity to preserve industry is mostly camouflage
to deceive the people whose pockets are picked.
It is about time that the nation went back to first prin
cipls cut out privilege seeking and pap-sucking and left
the individual to shift for himself, with no advantage over
competitors save those that nature bestowed. It is time to
wipe out paternalism and return to democracy, lest paternal
ism wipe-out democracy.

teacher correct my darling child
more thaa the rest? Why do the
children pick on my dear and
make him bate school T"
Because you, parent, did not
teach him to obey. You are the
cause of bis trouble. For your
child sake, then, and for your
country's sake, stand back of the
school teacher who must do your
work as well as her own present
Tacts to your child that, will cause
him to become a respected citizen
and a loyal subject of his country
Qod pity the child if his teacher
la also slack in discipline. She,
too, must answer tor her crime.
Ood will bless the parent and the
teacher who are true to their
trust. Parent and teacher should
work together for the child's sake
and for Ood's sake. A home with
out obedience, and a school with
out discipline, are two long strides
toward the penitentiary, bolshev
ism and hell.

To the Editor: As for the
Sloat reward it was offered for
the crime committed In Salem up
on two little girls from this city.
If Linn county gives any reward
for the crime committed there we
have no claim to that. He was
not arrested in Linn county for
the crime commited here and il
was our two little girls that iden
tified him and made It possible to
convict him for the crime commit
ted here and to them and them
alone belongs the reward. -

An Unnamed Sin.
To the Editor: Many are daily
committing a crime that though
unpunished as far as the law di
rectly concerns the offender, is a
thousand times worse, with two
exceptions, than any crime that
is punished. Yes, It Is a major
In, yet unpunished except by
retribution. I shall write about
it without naming It.
A child Is born. - It is his pre
rogative to be taught in such a
manner that he will be qualified
to live a proper life, He should
not "only be shown what Is right,
and what is wrong, but with rea-l
soiling and firmness be brought to'
obey.
Obedience demanded by parents
win incite a child to make obeis
ance to them In later years, and il
done in the right manner will no
prompt an objurgatory attitud
in the child. But this is not th
issue. The child must obey fo
the child s own sake.
"My child has an ego; if I bos:
him around, he will become
nonentity." Oh, parent, did you
say that? Explain the why for oi
things as they come up in the life
of a child, and if you have begun
his education early, be will decide
tor the right, his very being will
be strengthened, and at the aam

with the desire to hare her know

"Isn't it absurd thai a man as

enough for conventionality that
he would refrain from telling the

about Harry. I left that for Milton
later."
The whole day was very full
for all three of the friends. Dr.
Milton worked assiduously over
Glendenlng. You would have
thought that he was Milton's dear

enemy.
I didn't know there were such
splendidly unselfish men In the
world, Dave," observed Clavering,
when they had literally been ob
liged to put Milton to bed in the
hospital where he was visiting
Glendenlng.
The two friends returned to the
Club and talked far into the night
planning to bring some sort of or
der out of the chaos. Their whole
endeavor was to save Doris' feel
ings as much as possible and to
keep Margaret's name out of the
proceedings for the sake of Dr.
Milton. '
Davis was on hand early in the
morning to take Doris to the in
quest. He could see that she was
very nervous when she whispered
to him that she had never been to
such a place before. j j
Davis had asked that she might best and kindest husband in the

"Your occupation?"

"Claire Adams was your wife?"
"Yes, sir."
"Did you fire this gun that kill

"They say I did, sir. They say
that Claire la dead and that I mur

to kill her. Why, judge, I loved
her. I was trying to get the man
who ruined my home. It was he

"You see, Judge, Claire was

'She loved a good time; she lov

"Is this the letter?" asked the
judge.
''Yes, sir,
"Will you please read it," he
said to one of the attendants.
He read:

PAVING OPERATIONS
NEAR ALBANY BEGUN
Albany, June 28. Hauling of
'hot stuff" on the Pacific high
way on the Albany-Tangent sector
began Tuesday morning.
Five large trucks belonging to
the A. D. Kern Paving company,
began hauling "the black" from
the Tangent plant at 8:80 o'clock
this morning, and shortly after
o'clock the first pavement was
laid at the southern city limits of
Albany at Thirteenth and Elm
streets.
The forms were laid several days
ago and It is expected that from
now on work will proceed rapidly.
The rock for the paving came from
the Saddle Butte quarry
