The Roorback'
Of the same type of fraud as the bogus Knights of
Columbus oath so freely circulated by the Ku Klux Klan,
another fake statement purporting to declare that the
Catholic church places church allegiance above American
citizenship, appears as a campaign roorback in the Salem
Statesman, once a respectable republican paper and above
6uch practices, but them days are gone forever.
Too cowardly to take a stand on men or issues, the States
man has contented itself this campaign by clandestinely
stabbing the republican candidate from behind anonymous
unfathered and irresponsible communications. As for the
roorback in general, a statement printed too late for con
tradiction or refutation, the following from the Oregonian
expresses the general sentiment:
Beware ot roorbacks, of course. But they usually take care of
themselves, so far as newspaper publications are concerned. The
paper which would deliberately take advantage of a candidate for
office by printing a statement derogatory of him when It cannot be
met for lack of time or opportunity, is not worthy of the public
confidence.
The Turkish Mess
The fall of the British and Italian ministries has evidently
encouraged the Turk to believe that now is the appointed and
accepted time for the restoration of the former glory of the
'Ottoman empire. Success in crushing the Greek army and
in bluffing the Allies into readmitting the banished nation
into Europe, has gone to the head of the victorious Kemal
who purposes to grab what he wants by force, confident in
the belief that the European nations cannot be successfully
united to oppose him.
The Turkish recrudescence is due to Russia and to France,
which armed and equipped Kemal's armies and made his vic
torious drive a possibility. France, which feared Greek
ambitions for territorial empire, is largely to blame. Having
accomplished the defeat of the Greeks, it is probable that
France will stand with England to restrain the Turks from
further encroachment and a strong show of force, if not
actual warfare mav be necesary to make the Turks
reasonable.
There is every probability that Russia is back of the new
Turkish demands. Having been denied a voice in the pro
posed peace conference, Russia is seeking through the Turks
to force recognition of the soviet government by the Allies
and to ths end is lending the Turks moral and material
assistance.

Portland Hysteria
The Portland school board has denied the use of the
.Lincoln high school auditorium to William F. Dunne, a labor
radical, who desired to speak on "American Labor and th
Russian Revolution." The avowed purpose of hi3 address was
announced as "to protect American workers in their civil
rights of free speech, free press and freedom of assemblage
the right to organize and to protest against the arrest of
William Z. Foster, and to raise funds-
While few have any sympathy with the radical propa
panda advanced by Mr. Dunne, there is no question but that
the encroachment of bumptious officialdom against free
speech and free press needs checking. In Portland partic
ularly, the city officials have no hesitancy in abolishing the
constitutional guarantees on suspicion. They are ruled by
hysteria rather than common-sense.
History has proven conclusively that there is no way to
encourage the growth of any doctrine or theory like forcible
suppression and official persecution. If there is a grain of
truth in any theory, it will survive all attempts to eradicate
it, and there is nothing like persecution to perpetuate error,
Open discussion and appeal to reason is the American and
the effectual way to defeat heresy.

Ktfver place too much confidence in a man who thinks
he understands women.
Why not have a three-mile limit on land? Not all of us
can afford to go to sea.
The only women who can be happy with husbands are
those who can be happy without them.
With millions of women in the world, it's a miracle if
a man only makes a fool of himself once.
Jazz dancing is said to be on its last legs,

And shimmy-
and me.
"As soon as Dr. Thornton finisho
is not to the authorities at the
other hospital we will come, Phil,
answered soothingly. It was no
time for an outburst and just then
the doctor entered sayinjr:
Here lit is Mrs. Wilmington,
and I hope you will find Sheila
there. I wish I could go with you
have always folt that Sheila was
almost my own child."
In a moment Phil, Tony and
were at the car.
'Tony, I want you to drive,"
remarked still fearful of what might
happen with Phil at the wheel.
"What's that," domandod Phil
''Never mind, I'll drive,'' he insist
ed.
"It would be safer if Tony drove,
Phil, I urged. "You are too excil
ed. And besides you could watch
the streets better with Tony drlv
ing. He hasn't so much at stake."
"Oh, hasn't lief" Phils low-ton
ed comment was grim.
Tony drew himself about to speak
but I knew if he said what was in
his mind there would be a fight
right there.
I luid my hand lightly on Tony's
arm.
''Phil, ask Tony to drive your
car,' I urged, for Phil would staud
a go!d deal from mo.
Ho balked a little and then, with
what grace he could, spoke blunt
!y: "Come on, Sopor, Kay thinks
she can not trust me to drive.
have never known hor to bo such a
coward before."
"Good luck, and please telephone
me immediately," called Dr. Thorn
ton from the top of the steps.
I was much too disappointed and
tired to talk. Phil huddled himself
into the opposite cornor of the seat,
pulled his coat collar . up about his
lace aud his cap down until I
could see only a blurry white streak
between them.
It had begun to drizzle again.
Tony's attention was taken up en
tirely with the car on the slippery
pavement.
Once or tw' 'here was an omin
ous skidding eh made me entch
my brenth quickly, but even then
Phil did not move. He seemed bur
ied in hi oven bitter thoughts.
I expect that Tony drove very
rapidly, but wo seemed to crawl,
and I was almost on the verge of
hysterics when Tony drew up to the
hospital.
Phil was on the ground before
the cur fairly stopped.
As we rushed up the steps a door
opened and a women passed us. Her
face was heavily veiled, but thore
was something about her that seem
ed familiar. Like a flash I under
stood. It was Susanna Jones' At
last she had come to seo her brother.
Phil was so intent upon his quest
f Sheila that he didn't even notice
uannno.
She had gone about halfway down
the long steps when recognition
soemed to have entered her con
sciousness. She turned quickly.
l nil, she called.
Ho turned, hesitated for a mo
rtal and, of course, 1 hurried Ui
roctly- to him?.' , .
"Is Sheila here!" Phil demand
ed, as though .Susanne had not
spoken.
Susanne grabbed his arm and look
ed at him in consternation. Quickly
she threw her veil back and gazed
into his face as though he were a
stranger.
'bheila!' she shrilled. ''I have
not seen Sheilal I haven't seen her
since last I saw her in the arms of
your friend, Tony Soper.".
"That will do Miss Jones."
Tony rushed down the steps, two
at a time, and took her arm in e.
vicious grip.
"Phil,'' Tony turned to mv
brother, "please take your sister in
to the hospital I will see Miss Jones
to her car. I have something that 1
want to say to her."
Susanne jerked away from Tony.
In doing so she lost her balance
and fell.
I only had time to notice, that
my brother paid no more attention
to what was going on below. He had
rushed up the steps and was: fran
tically ringing the night bell.
1 could not leave any woman in
such a little huddled lieau .as I raw
and heard moaning on the pavement
below.
Tony had reached Susanne before
me and was trying to lift her up.
Don t. Don't please. Please vou
are killing me," she groaned.

In a written opinion submitted
to the city council at Its regular
meeting last night Ray Smith, city
attorney, held that the city of Sa
lem Is not bound by Its offer, ten
dered by the council, to pay $500
for Information leading to the ar
rest and conviction of the man
who, on March 5 last, criminally
assaulted two ltitle Salem girls.
C. A. Sloat, a former school
teacher at Oakville, is at present
serving a life term in the state
penitentiary for the crime.
Briefly, Mr. Smith held that the
crime was one against the state
and not punishable by city ordi
nance. Consequently, he oelievei
that the ctiy council did not have
authority to offer the reward.
Mr. Smith cited another case in
which a court had held that a city
is not organized with the view ot
enforcing criminal laws of the
state and that the council did not
have authority to offer a certain
reward. He said he believed the
cases to be similar and that the
offer of reward In the Sloat case
does not bind the city."
What action the council will
take Will be decided later.
Business transacted by the
council last night was largely of a
routine nature. Six assessment
ordinances, up for final readings,
were passed by the aldermen last
night. . I
