Passing-up Preliminaries
Sixteen years ago, Governor West called the legisla
ture's attention to the fact that development of hydro-elec
tric possibilities along the Columbia river depended upon
certain preliminary steps before progress could be made. But
no attention has been paid to the warning even by the free
power advocates.
The source of the Columbia is on Canadian soil. Two of
its principle tributaries flow through Idaho and it forms for
the greater distance, the boundary between Washington and
Idaho. Thus not only international but interstate agree
ments are a necessary preliminary.
Under the treaty with Canada by which the internation
al boundary was fixed, it was stipulated that the Columbia
should remain forever open to the commerce of the world,
particularly to the boats of Canadian trappers and traders.
Therefore Canadian approval becomes necessary before any
of the contemplated power or irrigation developments can
be undertaken. The three states have rights which must
also be taken into consideration..
At the recent legislative session, Representative John
H. Lewis, former state engineer and an authority on water
rights, called this matter forcibly to the attention of the
legislators, and finally secured the passage of a resolution
calling for the appointment of a committee to meet with like
legislative committees from Washington and Idaho, with a
view of preparing such uniform and reciprocal legislation as
would permit the construction of power dams and works
and the use of the waters by any state concerned in the de
velopment. Its passage came too late to permit action dur
ing the pending sessions of the respective legislatures. The
result will have to be presented to the 1933 sessions.
Another resolution by Mr. Lewis calling on our delega
tion in Congress to prepare and secure the passage of an
ect authorizing and permitting the framing of compacts as
between the several states concerned, and the United States
and Canada or her provinces for use of the waters of the Co
lumbia, was permitted to die in the senate in the closing
hours despite its great importance.
Progress in utilizing the power possibilities of the Co
lumbia has therefore been indefinitely delayed by the very
forces so clamorous for its development. Doubtless City
Commissioner Clyde of Portland who is promoting a mythi
cal municipal plant, will adjust all such differences through
the passage of a city ordinance.
A Result of Fanaticism
A sad tale comes from Arizona, where Bob Ruhl, editor
of the Mcdford Mail Tribune went to recuperate from illness,
only to fall victim-to influenza. In one of his interesting
letters to his paper, he tells how he was unable to get the
medicine his physician prescribed as follows:
For this particular ailment the doctor prescribes whiskey In small
doses. He Is an excellent doctor, ranks at the top here, is well known
in the east and middle west, takes an active part in public welfare work
and civic betterment.
A majority of the practicing medical profession the
country over hold the same views. The theory is sustained
by the Volstead act, which allows spirituous wines and li
quors on a physician's prescription and yet as Mr. Ruhl con
tinues: The doctor says: "Good whiskey is like sunshine, excellent medicine it
taken moderately, poison if taken immoderately. In certain Infections of
the respiratory tract I have never found a satisfactory substitute for
whiskey. In certain stomach disorders there is nothing better than a
light wine."
Can you jet a drink of wine or whiskey when a reputable doctor In
Arizona prescribes lt Not on your life; nor can you In Oregon. These
two states point with pride to the fart that they prefer disease, suffering
and, U need be, death, to a dry law that conforms to the Volstead act.
Attempts to make the state prohibition laws conform
to the Volstead act, in this particular, failed in Arizona as
they failed in Oregon. The Anti-Saloon League cracked its
whip and preachers flocked from all regions to maintain this
fanatical and unreasonable restriction to deprive the sick
from needed medicine. To get it and everyone can get it
it forces them to become law' breakers and brings the law
into such contempt that its repeal is only a question of time.
APPRENTICESHIP
BOARD PROVIDED
BY LEGISLATION
Oregon was second only to Wis
consin In becoming on of two
states In the nation to create ap
prenticeship laws. The act was
passed by the last legislature.
"The code should prove benefi
cial to apprentices and employers
alike," said O. D. Adams, director of
the state department for vocation
al education which was directly af
fected by the new act. .
The Oregon building congress
representing Oregon trades and
vocations, was instrumental In se
curing passage of the bill, according
to Adams. The measure provides:
Written contract must be made
between apprentice and employer:
payment according to ability to
learn; for future and present em
ployment of the worker; creation of
a commission to regulate and estab
lish rules for both parties.
A contract entered into by the
employer and apprentice must
among other requirements, set forth
the wage, period of employment
usually four years and show ap
proval of parents and the commis
sion, it was provided.
Formerly an apprentice on be
coming of aga would ba free of i
contract entered into when a mln-
or. The new law secures these con
tracts beyond such a period with
equal benefit to both parties.
An apprenticeship commission
was provided. It will be composed
of: C. A. Howard, state superinten
dent of public Instruction; C. H.
Gram, state labor commissioner; I
member of the state industrial ac
cident commission. He will be se
lected by the governor. W. H. Fits-
gerald has been mentioned In un-
omcial sources.
A non-salaried secretary will be
selected by the commission. As
most of the work must be co-ordinated
with the vocational education
department duties, Adams appeared
ine iiKeiy choice lor this position.
A deputy secretary might also be
chosen for Portland, the city prin
cipally affected by the new law as
there are over 3000 there learning
trnaes, according to state reports.
L. E. Brighara, Portland vocational
supervisor, would be the probable
representative, It was said.
Sub-commissions will be estab
lished throughout the state to ap
prove contracts and provide local
supervision, Adams said.
William Jennings Bryan
By W. A. DELZELL
A Builder Needed
One of the professional "pep" brigade attaches of the
Portland chamber of commerce and former secretary of an
upstate chamber is reported as being groomed as the state
college candidate for head of the new department of agri
culture. His reputation is that of being a better booster
than builder.
Much is expected of the new department bv the farmers.
i" i"i niu. miuiner u can render material as
sistance is problematical. But if aid is to be forthcoming
and the department to justify itself, if it is to be a vital
factor in helping to write a constructive record for the ad
ministration, its first head must be a builder rather than a
booster. The pep brigade may be serviceable in its place,
perhaps the glad-hand artist is a necessary factor in Main
street life, at least he is omnipresent, but hot air is a poor
foundation for enduring monuments.
The new department must be built from the ground up
and the way the foundation is laid is all important as to its
future usefulness. This is especially so when it is realized
that it may be the first link in a future chain of consolida
tions for cabinet form of government. It is an experimental
tost and should be a fair one. So the need of a builder rather
than a ballyhoo artist is stressed. The farmer has been bunk
ed enough.

The year 1060 was a year of tre

and every community was filled
with factional strife. Debaters ar

Bryan's father was minister of
the gospel and be was reared in a
devoutly religious home an influ
ence that profoundly affected his
whole future career. It la doubtful
If America ever produced anotoher
prominent statesman who retained
so much of the flavor of a religious
home as did Bryan. In all his thirty
odd years of prominent public life,
mingling with politicians of every
grade, fighting on the floor of con
gress, making three campaigns over
tne nation as a presidential candi
date, serving as secretary of stats
under Wood row Wilson, or In his
capacity as a private citizen making
countless Chautauqua addresses and
lectures galore, never once was his
most bitter critic ever able to point
to utterances that was not chaste,
or to one act that would not stand
the full light of day. He lived during
an age of much drinking when
drinking was not a crime yet Bry
an was a total abstainer. His sue
cessful opponent, McKlnley, served
liquors at state dinners, the one for
Admiral Dewey cost over $100 for
liquors alone Bryan as secretary of
state served 'grape Juice. Most pol
iticians gambled, Bryan did not. AU
of them told risque stories, Bryan
never told a smutty story even in a
committee room. His every utter
ance was as clean as though spoken
in the presence of his mother. As
a world traveller he was a thrice
welcome guest at the courts of
kings, emperors and potentates.
Bitterly opposed by political en
emies, hated by every predatory in
terest, maligned by most of the
press, belittled by magazine writers
and caricatured by cartoonists, he
kept on about his mission, undaunt
ed, unruffled and good natured al
ways. The principles he taught, the
causes he espoused, the remedies he
proposed, although discarded in dis
dain at the time of his politically
successful opponents, have one by
one been accepted and adopted even
by the partisan enemies who ridi
culed thorn back In the nineties,

remember of his telling me one day
how he at once Introduced a bill
urovidina for the direct election ol
senators Instead of by the corrupt
method of conniving legislatures
then in use. His bill received a fav
orable report from the committee
and he wired home that it would
pass. But It did not pass that con
gress nor the next one, nor for many
more but It finally became a law,
Bryan humorously added, "I have
learned from many years' experience
that all reforms come slowly. They
may be advocated by one party for
many years but when finally adopt
ed they will be accepted by both
parties and will be enacted much
stronger than ever originally advo
cated.
He was an early crusader for con
trol of raUroads and other utilities.
Ridiculed then, browbeaten by the
great Interests, he yet lived to see
his Ideas written into the statutes
of our land. Oregon has Just seen a
year of public discussions end with
action by a legislature seeking to
better control utilities. In all the
campaign did you hear any sum
mlng up of the argument equal to
Bryans words of a generation ago.
"A private monopoly of a public
utility Is indefensible. Being hide
fensible It Is intolerable. Being In
tolerable It must be abolished or
remedied by public control."
He opposed the Imperialistic idea
of our owning the Philippines as a
conquered province without terri
torial privileges. His memorable
speech entitled "Naboth's Vlnyard''
is excellent reading today, after our
thirty years of experience with
those Islands.
Early In life he espoused, the
cause of equal suffrage and bore
the brunt of the fight for years be
fore he saw It win. It was the same
with his fight in the cause of tem
perance. Whether prohibition has
been all that Its supporters antici
pated or not. no one will deny it
was ever won without valiant men
and women fighting Its battles
against Intrenched liquor Interest
for many, many years. Thousands of
politicians, both wets and drys. In
Oregon, as In other states, unite in
saying "we do not want the saloon
bark." Yet many of these same ones
who have secured oftlocs today on
'dry platforms" never turned a hand
for temperance when the light was
on forty years ago. It took Intestinal
stamina for a politician to openly
oppose the forces aligned against
temperance In those good old days.
Bryans position was known always
to everyone. He never sought cover
or resorted to subterfuge. In sup
port of a cause he believed In he was
fearlessness Itself.
His speeches in behalf of an in
come tax, delivered on the floor ol
congress back in 1894 are a model
for any Income tax speaker today.
Most of the speakers In our last
session of Oregon's legislature could
have done better had they taken
time to read one ef Bryan's of forty
yean ago. He mas ridiculed then by
partisan opponent lor there were
then, even as now, many editors
who listened to the voices of the
htgherups", but our nation has an
Income tax and ao have many ot the
states, Oregon Included. His prin
ciples were sound, his logic Irrefut
able, but he was forty years ahead
of the trailing crowd of alow think-
His Ideas on bl-metallism, that
is on the tree coinage of silver, were
equally sound. We have had the gold
standard now for over thirty years
and today the mighty financiers oi
this distracted old world are again
discussing the advisability of restor
ing silver as a money metal. They
can see no other way out of the
world depression.
Our Federal Reserve system en
acted In Wilson's administration so
stabilized our financial system that
we fought and won the world war
without a financial flurry. It was
but the adaptation of Bryan's Idea
of a flexible currency which he had
long advocated the old "green
back" theory made practicable. It
is working today and no banker
would think of discarding It.
As secretary of state under Wil
son he was a firm advocate of
peace. He always opposed war as a
mcana of settling International dis
putes. When he saw that his ideas
clashed with Wilson's he simply re
signed and made way for someone
else who could better agree with the
President. There were no recrimin
ations, no vituperations, no scenes.
no "public" explanations ever offer
ed. He held his own peace and wait
ed for time to vindicate his action.
As the years roll by and our great
war generals and diplomats tell us
more and more of the underlying
causes of the war, we will better un
derstand this man of peace. In his
latter days he gave nearly all of
his time and efforts to religious,
rather than to political affairs. His
home in Florida became the rallying
place for the largest men's Bible
class ever known. Men from all
over the nation without regard to
political affiliation were proud to
be members of that class. His last
public utterances were In defense
ot what he sincerely believed to be
an attack upon the Inspiration of
the scriptures, growing out of the
controversy In Tennessee over a law
regulating what might be taught in
the public schools of that state.
Once more his words and actions
were subject to most scathing crit
icism by those who opposed his fun
damentalist teachings. In an ob
scure village in Tennessee where
trial was staged, which the great
newspapers of America thought im
portant enough to send corps of re
porters, lease wires and olace the
dally proceedings before the readers
of the whole world, Bryan closed
his earthly career. Alone he fell
asleep with no one there to wit
ness the coming of the angel of
death. They found him dead with
tne same peaceful smile on his fea
tures he had in life.
Let me close by reDcatina a storv
he once told me while we were seat
ed on the veranda of the old Ash
land hotel In Oregon. He had been
to Europe and on one occasion was
a guest at a banquet where seated
beside him was a former American
heiress, now the wife of titled no
bility. The lady remarked to Mr.
Bryan that she could not under
stand why her old time New York
associates wore so bitterly opposed
to him. Mr. Bryan replied to her,
"A few years hence they will need
men of my type far more than I
needed them In my campaign. I
have only been saying to them
'6top your stealing from the masses.
The ones who come after me will
growi, give it back."
Was Bryan a Droohet? Ar we
hearing the ominous growls over
ine world today? Is the stone which
the builders rejected to become the
headstone of the corner?
PUBLIC WARNED
COLDS AND FLU
COMMUNICABLE
A condition which develops Into
a mild cold in one person may de
velop into Influenza or pneumonia
in another, says a bulletin of the
state board of health. The actual
causes of colds and Influenza are
not definitely known. All colds, sore
throats, Influenza and pneumonia
are communicable. They may be
transmitted from person to person
by close contact. Close contact
means carelessness In coughing and
sneezing; using the same eating and
drinking utensils; hand shaking,
kissing, etc.
Colds and influenza are the most
communicable of diseases, and It is
rare for a real case of these diseases
to occur in a family or community
that others do not develop it. These
diseases spread rapidly in overheat
ed gathering places and where hu
man beings are brought into close
contact with one another. An oral
nary cold may not cause sufficient
inconvenience for the patient to re
main at home. Influenza, however,
is usually severe enough to keep
patient at home for several days.
Pneumonia germs are always with
us and many people are carriers of
these germs. Virulent colds and in
