"Without or with offense to friends or foes 1 sketch your world exactly as it goes." Byron Pussy-Footing The Baltimore Sun describes the technique of pussy footing, after ten years experimentation, though not yet Standardized, as falling into the following five broad gen eral classifications, which may be labeled as the polices of 1(1) omission, (2) negation, (3) submission, (4) deletion, and (5) commission. Omission is of course the ideal one for the candidate fend well illustrated by Julius Meier who declines to discuss details: negation is exemplified by Chairman Fess of the Republican committee, who declares prohibition is not an issue; submission is illustrated by. Euth Hanna McCormick, who after declaring for prohibition says she will follow any instructions given by constituents, a plea in bankruptcy of leadership; deletion is demonstrated in party platforms that cut-out mention of a subject and permit candidates to write their own version thus abandoning party government ; com mission is the policy of President Hoover, in committing an issue to a selected body and then forgetting it. Still another form of pussy-footing, combining all these policies with others of its own. has been developed by the Portland Journal, which when asked why it, a Democratic paper and the champion of the direct primary system, is not supporting the Democratic nominee for governor, the only one of the three candidates who won his nomination in the regular primary, while both his opponents were convention products, replied editorially: The Journal's first business Is measures. Sometimes It has been mis taken and disappointed In men. It Is going to make no mistake this time. It will watch the men In this campaign until It Is convinced what nominees are aate In such at crista. All of which is highly amusing. As if the righteous Journal doesn't know the men by this time! After many years of bartering for advertising, it certainly knows Mr. Meier. It knows Mr. Metschan, in public' and private life equally as well. It knows all about Mr. Bailey and his legis lative experience. What more can it learn in the few weeks remaining before election? Our guess is that the Journal will continue to support its leading advertiser until the campaign advertising appropri ation is nearly exhausted, when if it looks as if the Demo cratic nominee stood a good chance, it will flop back to the party fold, thus gratifying its constituency as well as landing on the winning side. But it is a classic exhibition of pussy-footing. Another Hawley Victory The Dominion of Canada has placed a duty of 24 cents a pound on all American hops entering-Canada, a 12 cent duty on English hops and 20 cents on the hops of favored Euro pean nations. This action effectually excludes American hops from Canada and eliminates one of the few remaining hop markets for the Oregon grower and Canada was one iof our best customers. . The Cnnadian tariff is in reprisal for the new duties im posed by the Hawlcy-Smoot tariff act against Canadian pro ducts and is therefore another of the long string of Hawley victories in curtailing export markets for Oregon products .through his tariff statesmanship. Previous Hawley victories were listed when the Domin ion government put in effect last month not only a tariff on American lumber but the following import duties on Ameri can fruit and vegetables: apples 6 cents a pound; cabbages 5 cents; cantaloupes, 13 cents; celery 10 cents; onions 4 cents; peaches 12 cents; pears 9 cents; plums and prunes 8 cents; tomatoes 10 cents, and now the 25 cent duty on hops complete .the list of embargoes upon major Oregon products. As these duties are higher than the retail sale price of these agricultural staples, they mean the loss of Canadian markets to the chief products of Oregon farmers. Valley gardners will be particularly pleased with the prohibitive tariff on hops, cabbages, celery and onions, and orchardists .with those on apples, peaches, pears and prunes. Other foreign governments have taken or are contem plating similar reprisals as a result pf Mr. Hawley's states manship. Nor does it come as a surprise, for full warning was served in the protests against the tariff act filed by 35 foreign countries before its passage. Mr. Hawley can point with pride to having taken the leadership in destroying foreign markets for Oregon pro ducts in order to increase the swollen profits of eastern mo nopolies in return for Republican campaign contributions. A Real Sportsman Repeated defeat in his continuous efforts to win the America cup, docs not seem to have embittered Sir Thomas Upton, but only to emphasize his qualities as a true sports man, and these have won him greater admiration and respect than victory would have bestowed, for he is the best of losers. Sir Thomas illustrates the British idea of sport just as Harold Vanderbilt does the American idea. The British play games for the love of the game itself and the pleasure of contest the Americans play to win. The game is only a means to the end. They make it a business instead of a recreation. . The British inherently love fair play and success is empty unless fairly won. The American is not so scrupulous. He doesn't get his pleasure in the contest but in the victory. He sacrifices the former for the latter. It would have been no pleasure to Sir Thomas to have sailed around the course leaving a disabled competitor behind, but Vanderbilt only figured another race won. v It is this intense concentration on winning, this elmina tion of everything not contributing to it, this making a busi ness of victory which is an American characteristic, that accounts for American athletic victories in so many fields as well as in business. But the more leisurely Englishman gets the most pleasure out of it and is the better sportsman.
