BYRON Propaganda, Though the probe of the propagandist activities of the shipbuilders has just begun, expenditure of $143,000 at Washington to secure the passage of the Jones-White mer chant marine act passed last year has already been revealed In the investigation of William B. Shearer's services at the 1927 Geneva disarmament parley, where he represented the shipbuilders. Similar investigations of munition makers would probably reveal extensive propaganda for armament. Investigation by the Federal Trades Commission has disclosed the wide-spread propaganda efforts by the power in terests to influence legislation, press, and public opinion, ex tending from the halls of the capitol to the public schools, even to the buying of powerful newspapers. But as yet the extent of subtle propaganda campaigns conducted in behalf iof hidden special interests is almost wholly unexplored. The detached instances of underground systematic work by skilled experts to mould the public mind, which have be come known, give little indication of the wide-spread ramifi cations and enormous influencing power of propaganda, in a civilization, based as our is, upon mass education, with the people forming judgments from what they read and hear. Gustavua Myers, the historian, writing upon "the invisi ble empire of propaganda," estimates that ten million dollars a year are spent on it. He says: In former eras predatory Interests disregarded public opinion and centered their designs upon outright bribery of legislators. This method has been generally discarded as crude and dangerous. By manufacturing public opinion, the desired end Is brought about in what seems to be a spontaneous popular demand. This expresses itself by a cessation of op position, or a distinct pressure upon public officials in favor of the pro gram thus artfully put forward. Many of these propaganda campaigns have been successful; In other cases where they were not their failure was due to outbreaking scandal and exposure. The exposures of propaganda activities conducted to aid concealed interests, are but occasional and in the rush of news become soon forgotten, while the propagandists' work is continuous, with every large corporation with its "public relations" counsel, whose main efforts are directed to influ encing public opinion through press, pulpit and politics. The government has become a grab-bag for predatory interests which secure their plums through propaganda as witness the making of a tariff. One of the triumphs of propaganda has been its gradual change of public opinion to regard trusts as beneficial economic creations instead of criminal conspir acies as defined under the Clayton act. The result is obvious in the collosal mergers creating national monopolies. - Brazilian Farm Aid Some of the results experienced in the efforts of-the Brazilian government to stabilize the coffee industry and assure profitable prices to producers are apt to overtake the efforts of our newly created Farm Board in its effort to accomplish stabilization of the prices of various agricultural commodities on a higher plane. Referring to the Brazilian situation, the Rio Janeiro cor respondent of the North American Newspaper Alliance says that the experiment there has reached the stage where the entire country annually prays for frost to kill the coffee crop. He adds: I Th nnuwnt coffee crisis, however. Is beyond the help of frosts. The Brazilian experiment already has run circle, from artificial price Inflation to increases planting am, iwauy, back to a glutted market and threatened disaster. The Brazilian government in attempting to save the coffee industry eight years ago created a monopoly and established a selling price, holding the surplus beyond mar ket needs for a year when there should be a crop failure. The surplus warehoused has now reached the point where It is larire enough to almost supply the demand for a year. Higher prices for coffee increased production both at home and abroad. As it takes seven years to mature the coffee plant, the new plantings are just coming into bearing and world markets are swamped. In our own attempt to aid the farmer, the same problem must be faced. This year the jwheat producing countries solved the problem temporarily, But if the price of wheat is fixed at a profitable figure, the supply will increase. Orderly marketing will not get rid of the constantly increasing surplus. The country will ex- perlence eventually the same disastrous results that Great Britain experienced in attempting to control rubber. Cuba In controlling sugar, and now No way has yet been devised to overcome premanently (he law of supply and demand, Research in An increasing amount of activities of our universities. be promoted to secure subsidies corporations or foundations, Just what part they play in not so clear.

Masse, a leader in cm- cago's business and civic affairs, who was foreman of the jury in vestigating the gang massacre, ad vanced the suggestion of a bureau at Northwestern to aid in securing expert evidence m muraer cases for the coroner's office. The idea won the endorsement of the asso ciation of commerce and Massee obtained an endowment ox ajoo,ooo for it from ChlcaKoans. Establishment of the Northwest ern university school of scientific crime detection followed.

The endowment fund will be managed by the directors of the xrhool under the name of the Chi cago scientific crime detection lab oratory corporation.

The actual cost oi seww umi that hava been completed total easily within the estimates of the engineers. Some units have cost far below estimates, but not by wide margins. The trouble seems to be with the big hole that has been eaten Into the fund by numerous thlmts aside from new sewers, In cluding overhead, machinery, mis cellaneous supplies, the covering of deficits and several sewer jobs that This exrendltur apparently was all legaL The "program" was not a hard and fast matter. It was ex pected that the need of sewer con struction not included in the engi neer's estimates would arise, and no one Is kicking about It. But the people of Salem believed, when they voted the naii muuon uouara bonds, that the whole fund was go ing Into new sewers, all "keyed in" and looking ultimately to a sewer disposal plant. Where s mistake ha. hum made, it seems. Is that the council in preparing the budgets lor 1928 and 1929 did not make pro vision for a sewer levy to take care of miscellaneous costs, sower work has been at a stand still since early last spring because of the condition of tne bona mariei. that has made it Impossible to sell 4i4 per cent sewer bonds at a fig ure high enough for good business. The condition of the sewer fund Is about as follows: The total authorized bond Issue, was $500,000. Bonds sold to date total $330,000. leaving $170,000 not Issued. The total expenditures from the fund, Including premiums on bonds and overdrafts Is about $342,136. The amount expended on work designed by the engineers, Cupper, Simpson and Cooper, for new sewer construc tlion totals closely to $183,221. This leaves $158,915 that has been ex pended for other things than the sewer program covered In the esti mates of the engineers, iwnra fhn hnnds wem voted there was a deficit in the sewer fund of $5,696.94. This was paid from the sale of the first $100,000 bonds, A few months ago, after the bona market had slumped, deficit of 118 403.81 developed, so. regardless of the market, $30,000 more of the bonds was sold. The deficit was met and various other costs paid to a total of $35370.06. Hence at the nresent time there Is an overaraii of $5370.06, and no money to pay it until more bonds are soia. Since only $170,000 In bonds re mains to be sold, and since the $5. 370.06 overdraft exlslts he amount left for new sewer consirucuon under the original program cannot exceed $164,630, and much of that, of course, will go Into various costs. Will the $170,000 meet the pro gram? The only answer Is In the estimates covering the remaining unconstructed work. The estimated cost ot work de signed by the engineers but not yet constructed Is $80,418-50. The esti mated cost ot work In the program, but not yet designed on construct ed, la iu follows. To complete flood water control in Mill and rrmgie creeks. $17,500. High and Ferry street drain, $15,000; sewer south from Church and Mission streets to the city limits, with sub-mains on Waller and 20th streets, $50,000; the Intercepting sewer on Church street from Mission to Union, $52,215.60; Winter street drain. $5,000. This total estimated cost of designed and undesigned work Is $220,134, which exceeds visible funds by at least $55,504. In addition to this are several Jobs in the program on which no estimates were made. These are the Improvement of the ditch along Mill creek; a drain east of Mill street In cooperation with the state ot Ore gon to cover the penitentiary and state hospital area; a lateral drain and sewers lor the area south of Bush's pasture. Another thing that must be tak en Into consideration Is the fee paid the engineers. This Is SH per cent of actual cost. One-half of one per cent of tola was paid them when the preliminary report was made to uie council. Among the sewer construction work that has been done, not In cluded In the original program, but charged against the proceeds ot the bond issues, were the sewer at the city incinerator, costing $9,739.11 and the lateral in Rosedale addition near the fair grounds, costing $1, 511.05.

This was playing the game differently from the way they usually played It where only one person was blindfolded and tried to catch the others. But the little buck clock had thought this would be a good way to play It now. Of course his less were verv-much shorter than either Peggy's or John's. But he dodged them again and again. It was really quite hard to catch him. To be sure, they were all In such wide open land that It was extremely difficult to catch anything when blindfolded. But the little black clock did not go far away. He stayed near by, Sometimes he was very quiet "and they thought he might have gone farther off. But then they would hear him move a little. He was excellent at dodging. Excellent! At last John got hold of him. "I've got you!" he shouted. And what do you think? When Peggy and John took their handkerchiefs from their eyes the whole scene was entirely different. They were no longer on a wide prairie. They were rat far from a cave.
