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

Bun A. Masse, a leader in cm-

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

obtained an endowment ox ajoo,ooo
for it from ChlcaKoans.
Establishment of the Northwest

crime detection followed. A lab
oratory will be located on Mctun

with a bureau of crime detection
being maintained as an Independ

the bureau. It will be reserved
exclusively for Doltce work, develop

identifying weapons by rifling
marks on bullets; toxicology and
chemistry will be used in checking
evidence.
The endowment fund will be
managed by the directors of the

has been named a director, draws
the following outline of the bureau's
work:
"Every conceivable weapon that
modern science can bring into the
field age list crime will be em
ployed. Blood stains, scraps of
clothing, dust on the skin or

regular police investigation, will
be made to tell tales.
"There will be a handwriting de

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. Also there were the 17th

BLIND MAN'S BUFF
By Mary Graham Bonner
John and Peggy blindfolded
themselves. 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.
And there was a man in front ot
the cave, a strange, wild looking
man.
"Oh, I'm glad you dldnt catch
me before I had turned to this
time," the little black clock said.
jonn aian-c say anything. Nor
did Peggy. They were watching
tne man. He was the strangest
looking man they had ever seen In
au their lives.

sewers.
Among machinery nurchased and
charged against the sewer bond
fund were a Keystone excavator
costing $9,875; scoop buckets for the
excavator, s2; bucket system sew
er cleaner, $975, and an Orton shov'
el costing $7,379.
City Engineer Hugh Rogers claims
that the purchase of excavator
equipment has enabled his crews to
build the sewers at much lower cost
tnan could have been done bv hand
labor. As a notable instance ot this
he cites the Spruce drain where the
actual cost was $53,033, or about
$13,000 below the estimate made by
Cupper, Simpson and Cooper,-the
designing engineers. He says the
work was done strictly according to
specuicauons.
On another Job. the Oxford street
drain, Rogers modified the plans of
we designing engineers by lnstal'
ling a series of weeps, or self -drain
ing over-size catch-basins. These
provide for drainage along the street
gutter ana tnrough the catch
basins. Instead ot bv sunken nines.
Rogers statement Is that he saved
10 Blocks of excavation and nine
laying. The cost of the work was
$17,031.78, or $9,913.44 less than the
estimate of $37,535.20. It was dos.
slble to make this change by taking
auvaatage ox nui slopes
Rogers says he made this modi-
flcatlon in the plans without In
structloh from the city council or
tne sewer committee, but claims he
naa mat right.
The actual cost of program Jobs

Qalnes street drain, $27.27038;

Novel of Oregon
Is New Book
By Rosalia Keber
Romantic accounts of happenings
on the overland trail to the Oregon
country In the days of '42 and '47
and of the hardships of those early
settlers; tales that were fiction built
on fact, have been written by scores
of writers great and small. But an
Oregon writer, Sheba Hargreaves,
has written ta first account, also
fiction with a generous sprinkling
of fact, of the Oregon country be
fore the arrival of the emigrant at
emigrant trains when Indians and
trappers and fur-traders were us
only inhabitants.
Mra. Hargreaves' new book, -rne
Ward of the Redskins," published
by Harpers, promises to eclipse her
first romance of the Oregon coun
try, "The Cabin at the Trail's End."
The white girl of mystery, Mult
nomah. "Rose in the Water," the
only white woman In the Oregon .
country, guarded and cherished by
the primary motive In "Ward of the
Redskins." The search which Jim
Faxon, botanist, makes for her from
his home on the Multnomah (Wil
lamette) 'river, through the wilds of
the coast mountains and through
the secret passage over Neah-Kah-Nle
mountain into the Nehalems
country, down Uie coast to the Ump
qua, eastward through the moun
tains to the "lake In the crater,"
where he finally finds the white
girl, makes an unusually Interesting
story.
The secret ot how the cultured
white girl came to be a ward of the
Nehalems Is kept until the climax
at the end of the story. A plausible
and not unlikely solution Is present
ed by Mrs. Hargreaves.
The book Is valuable not so much
for the romantic story as for the
wealth of Indian lore and interest
ing botanical Information which it
gives. A council fire ot the Nehalems
when Jim Faxon narrowly escaped
death, a wlerd and Impressive med
icine council on the shores of Crater
lake when Jim Faxon and Multno
mah first met, the Indian supersti
tions, and customs, the Indian med
ical practice, are given in interest
ing detail Mrs. Hargreaves made
her "Jim Faxon" a botanist who
came to the Oregon country with
the Harvard botanist and the mis
sionaries, Jason and Daniel Lee, all
connected with that Ill-fated Col
umbia River Fishing and Trading
company.
Jim's discovery of that rarest of
all orchids, oyster white and without
chlorophyll, known as Indian pipes,
on the slopes of Neah-kan-nle
mountain, and his accidental wel
come to the Nehalems camp because
he carried a cluster of the orchids.
Is one of the most interesting pas
sages of the book.
The old story of the burled treas
ure on Neah-kah-nle mountain
makes Its appearance In Mrs. Har
greaves' book. There is also the use
of the well known story of the ship
of beeswax which was wrecked on
the rough Tillamook coast line.
The story is one of general inter
est .but of particular Interest to the ,
Oregonian who knows and loves his '
local history.
In view of the special duties In
connection with the relief of un
employment in Oreat Britain to be
performed by the Lord Privy Seal,
J. H. Thomas, he will receive $25,000
a year Instead ot $10,000, the nor
mal salary.
Red car, England, council has
warned housewives against selling
of cups of tea to visitors to the town
under penalty of Increased taxes on
the ground that their property is
not used exclusively as a dwelling
house.
