To the Editor: If Mr. Purdy and his contemporary writer will grant us i brief ret from the din cUHSion uf the Lord'u prayer would like to advunce some IdeuH 1 gathered at the court house the other day. Standing In that long line of men and women waiting to make thuir annual deposit with th; county and state for the privi lege of being protected in their properly rights during the com ng vi ir. As they glanced ut the Ioctlngn on their statements great inuiiy murmured ut the raise of the tux over lust year and won- uerei why they were compelled to puy so much.

As L 1 okc.i upon this urray of nfcn a.'d v-f.!iieii I tried to .n- li'ler ":me of the vnrious avenues uto which out money would he llve-ti.i:, collie of ft, 1 mil sure, nnd boon gathered by keeping the e;;ufi :u:i, (i-eau from tho breakfast table and telling them in the m.ir- I ots in ll.! city. i t'iour;lt or the many priva tions thn tin se peojile umlergo In or.ler that police, sheriffs, Jurlc anl judges may receive their niont'ily saleries and 1 wondered if th'.-su 'same officers could look God in tho face and claim that tli'y r.-ndered a Just service fur the recompense that these people i';ust civc. I thought of a rase where a robust biped of the mal" gender that dure not call a man yet walks upright and goiw from p'aco to place drawing cheeks HK.I'ls'l b;ink deposltx that wtie never his. After many innocent people had roiitrlbutni to this h ii in in torut, offK-ers were nil ii) iin his trial and after a vaJi cxi'cinl'lure of time and effort in ihrlr iwirl he wis arrested anil brought Into court, given u trial hefiire a Juiy, witnesses were ex amined, anil after every pns-tililc delay nnd expense the forger hiI n.tted his guilt and the Jmlte raid: "I sentence you to a period in prlt,n, but I parole you now." In another Instance and with an other Judge a sentence was giv Lommrnsurato with the crime and there being no other relief offered Governor Tierce conies along nnd restores tho man to his freedom Then the governor proceeds on his way preaching to tho people a con tinned han-ngue as to how In. law should be enforced. I should llko to have pointed out to the governor that line of del.ipldated hats pnd dresses and had him realise as 1 did what it meant to those people to ralBe the amount of tax assessed against their homes 1 should like to ask the gov ernor when so much money I, rx- peLded to bring criminals to Jus tice and then with a single blow he thwarts the entire machine. what possible money can be weighed In the balnnco and not found wanting? I da not believe that the governor would ha ao ouick to resort to the attorney general to determine If there wasn't aoma way that ha could nullify law Into which the leg islature had placed teeth that would automatically Dunlsh diunken auto driven whan they were nroven aulltv. When tho legislature made this law they reajl!ted the futility ot enacting lvf that the governor and courts wiih a single word could nullify so hty fixed the penalty within I he law and even then the gov ernor, wants ts know If there. Isn't tone war mat c, can kill t. I in News Spotlight cause a certain manufacturer In Portland h fallen within Its meshes and ie Inconvenienced if the law Is allowed to operate. In all tne light of ordinary lioree sjnsn. what is a penalty at- .achcu to the law for it It Is not to luconvenlen o people who violate the law?. But the governor's at titude eecms to be that If revoking a drunken man's license Is goiug to work a hartlshln on him I. .... don't enforce that Taw, else why would he ask the opinion of the attorney general? If he pardons this ni'in then, if ho has any sense oi nonor, Co must pardon every ninn or woman who is convicted ot driving an auto while intoxicated and thus the thousands of dollars burned up in tho legislature is set at naught by a s'ngle man who pleaches law enforcement. The strange;it purt of it all Is that thing, run on, crime, multiply, '.axes grow, Jails aro full, peniten tiary crowded und nobody cares. A CONSTANT HEAOKlt. To the Ed'tor: Much has been "aid about our parking system. I fail to understand why a change is wnnted, tho only ones benefitted will bo garngo and repair men. The only point discussed Is, that :t Is much easier to "head-In" tnan to "baclt-ln" The most vitul point Is, Is it eariesr to "bac out" '.ban ti "back In?" llut let us use lonimnn practical sense. With our I resent system, when you are leady to park you give your "stop signal," and any cor following you .seX-iug your signal hue tlmo to stop or pass around you without ob structing traffic, and you back In, on a downwaid slope, which makes ii easy. . in si.irtlng out you art faclni.' oui toward tho middle of the atreet and In a position to see 'Klit mill left. Any car approach ng from your left you can let puss siKiiai ami pass out ahead of anie without obstructing traffic or uuniping ii. to another car. I will aKree that it is very nuv lo "1101111-111," hut you will find it much more difficult to "hack out." iou arc taciig tho curb, sitting i ll tho left side of your car. which ulnars It Impossible for you to ice I'ohlnd you on account of vo.ir i - sltlon In your own car, besides the curs parked biido you to your r.ght obstruct your view until the mot end of your car Is not even with tho rear ot cars parked be side you. Any car coming along your sido of tho street can not seo your car" coming back until you are moving out of the parking lino. lie muy be only a tew feet away aud you are backing Into his direction which make an accident rlmost unavoidable, aa you can not give an approaching car vis ible signal. In all cases you are backing Into traffic with your view obstructed. llow are trucks and delivery wagon, going to toad and unload. They cannot "back-In-" the same angle oa a car "heading-ln" as it would be necessary to turn around to do so. To back In as we now do might be impossible on account of only having an open epaca ot eight or ten feet. " These are two valid reasons why I favor the present system being maintained. O.
