FULL LEASED WIRE SERVICE OF THE ASSOCIATED PRESS AND THE l.VITED PRESS The Associated press is exclusively entitled to the use (or publication ol all news dispatches credited to It or not otherwise credited In this paper and aiso local news published herein. "With or without offense to friends or foes 1 sketch your world exactly as it goes." Byron Real Injustice In protesting against the campaign being waged for 52,400,000 cash bonus for able bodied veterans of the world war, the Willard Straight (New York) post of the American Legion demands of the national officers a cessation of trea sury raids declaring a billion dollars is being spent annually 'rapidly mounting to annual cost of two to three billions, and an estimated ultimate total of one hundred billions for world war veterans". It declared the statutes .sponsored by veteran organizations "discriminate against widows and other dependents of veterans killed in war service and favor living veterans receiving payments for disabilities having nothing to do with the war. The post states records show 680,000 world war veter ans are now drawing government bounties, free hospitaliza tion, medical, surgical and nursing service, including any veteran temporarily disabled through accident or malady of any kind subsequent to and having no relation whatever to war service, and to many who are in fact able bodied. "Ap proximately 70 percent of available beds in veterans hos pitals are occupied by men with disabilities incurred in civil life." An investigation conducted by New York World-Tele gram reveals that "the further a disabled veteran was from the fighting line on the western front, the more money he averages each month from the federal treasury." A study of monthly payments to a group of 313,737 men whose health was affected during their service, reveals that the man who received his disability as a result of disease contracted in the United States is averaging $48 a month, while the man dis abled in action averages $39 a month. me individual wno lost his mmu in a cantonment in America and many were mentally diseased when enrolled and only served long enough for the malady to become ap parentaverages $60.70 a month, while the man whose rea son cracked amid the horrors of the battlefield is averaging f -la monthly. Those who contracted tuberculosis in barracks in this country average $61 a month, those who got the disease m a gas attack or from lying for days in a battlefield average $55 a month. Those disabled by some serious mal ady, which might have been contracted in the army, average $36.70 a month, but the doughboy torn by an enemy shell, Dayonet or ritle bullet receives an average of 35.08 a month. Emergency officers are favored over women and 30 day men above those who served throughout the war. The liv mg have the edge on the dead. These are but a few of the many inequalities existing in the veterans' bureau produced by laws lobbied through by political pressure by veterans' or ganizations. It would seem therefore, that the veterans would be better employed in remedying existing injustices suffered by the real victims of the war, than in attempting a raid on a bankrupt treasury that would indefinitely prolong the de pression. Surely their government has not been ungrateful to the veterans, and needs their aid today in the existing .emergency as much as it did in war time. Farcical Protection The caption of a fishing picture in the Oregonian reads: Bteclheads are still striking on the Rogue. Though the opening of the regular trout season in Oregon Is not till Friday morning, hundreds ot anglers have been enjoying some great winter fishing on all the streams of the coast area. Droves of California tourists have been casting for the fighting steelhead trout that infest the famous southern Oregon stream. Prom November SO. when the season for six-Inch trout doses, until April 15, the law permits the taking of trout, but they must not be less than ten Inches In length. As the steelhead spawn during the winter and spring' months, we have here one of the main reasons why fishing in the Kogue and most other streams is annually becoming poorer. The cannery, which closes in September cannot be blamed, as steelhead are not utilized. The sortsmcn insist on fishing during the spawning season and then wonder whv the fish are exterminated. Add to the perpetual open season, the power turbines, defective fish ladders at dams and the unscreened irrigation ditches, and the doom of the Kogue river trout is assured. Our fishing laws are the biggest joke on the statute books, as far as protection is concerned. They permit a permanent open season for trout on most streams that is trout over 10 inches in length and as in all except in cold mountain streams, a trout must be 10 inches in length before matured sufficiently to spawn, the brooding trout are those exterminated, leaving only the young, which are caught out the next year because over 10 inches in length. Our trout closure laws were copied from those of eastern states, where they were devised for the eastern brook, which spawns in the late fall and early winter. Our native western trout, rainbow and cutthroat, spawn in the late Winter and spring. They will be spawning for a month after the season opens, and are therefore afforded little protection. In states where the western trout has been introduced, the season does not open until June, thus giving spawning trout protection denied in the state of their nativity. Yet, although these facts are well known among fish culturists, our anglers are not sportsmen enough to demand real protection and our game commissions cither too ignor ant or too supine to insist upon it. Hence the gradual deple tion of our streams, despite restocking efforts. FIGHT CARRIED TO WEST SIDE Portland. Ore., April 13 U With the avowed intention of carrying the battle to thaw who would re peal Oregon's dry law, Dr. Daniel A. Poling, president of the Nation al Christian Endeavor and head of the allied dry forces of America, ad dressed a mass meeting of prohibi tion workers here last night. Dr. Poling flew here from the east to "help his native state in an emergency.': The matter of repeal In this state wac or far greater importance than a like act in New York or New Jersey, because "Oregon was a dry state, has always been recognized as such and New York never was dry," the noted prohibition worker pointed out. "This is an emergency, not a pro hibition fight," he declared. "It represents a challenge to fundamen tal Americanism. In more than one direction forces that are alien and unfriendly to our social system and our form of government are strik ing at the very heart of American freedom. "The 18th amendment." he serted, "is just as much a part of the constitution as the 4tn, 5th or 14th amendment. It specifically provides for concurrent enforce ment by the states and federal government. Oregon adopted the act and in so doing recognized her ob ligation. If Oregon repeals tier law with the 18th amendment still In the constitution, she repudiates the constluttlon at that point. Dr. Poling made It clear he did not Impugn the motives of those working for the repeal of the dry act, but stated that his side was sure to win. The following committee was named to assemble a citizens com mlttee of 100 to sponsor a campaign against repeal referendum and more effective enforcement of pre sent liquor laws: Harry W. Stone, J. P. Newell, Walter S. Asher, Mrs. G. M. Gllnes and J. J. Ross. Retirement of Two And Pending Court Order . Curb School Budget Decision to lay the budget for the 1932-33 school year on the table for the time being was reached Tuesday night by directors of the Salem school district. Two reasons were advanced for the action. First, it BABY CLOTHING AND BEDS WANTED Baby beds and baby buggies stor ed in Salem homes and not now In use would come in handy at the Associated Charities office, accord ing to Mrs. Mae Carson, secretary. Mrs. Carson declares rbe has Just been overwhelmed with babies this spring and calls for baby clothing, beds and buggies have been numer ous with many on the waiting list. The Associated Charities win not give the beds and buggies outright to the families needing them, but Just loans the equipment out for the time needed. At present the Charities has three beds, a baby buggy and a baby cart out on loan, While the Associated Charities is feeding from 20 to 50 people a day fc present, Mrs. Carson finds that many of them are transient fam ilies. The Charities assisted 214 families this past winter, and the local needy people responded to the Charities program of "helping themselves" bu cutting almost 300 cords of wood, among other things done.

By DORIS BLAKE You are going along with a young man and have every reason to be lieve that you are the girl who one day will be serving him his waffles regularly Sunday mornings. He may not have said anything about the wedding day or he may have. Anyway, one morning the mail man delivers you a wallop in the shape of a confession from said young man. He writes frankly and honestly that a girl with whom he was In love before he met you has come back into his life and he finds, hard as it is to write it, that she is the real flame. What would be your contemplated action, then? Would you think up breach of promise threats? Would you get in touch with the young man ana pieaa your cause? Would you moon ana sod and "sour" on men and life and feel that von'ri oeen oone most awfully wrong by? Or, would you be a sane sister. weight the situation as It Is honest ly presented, si jh, of course, maybe cry a little but agree that there are some things in life out of your con trol and this one that has to do with an old love Is one of them? To be more concrete. "Amelia" re. celved such a letter after going arouna a year witn her friend. He never spoke of the old love. While he never talked marriage with "Am elia" In formal terms, they drifted into one of those relationships where every one took her granted marriage wuuia oe xne early outcome. men, tne man wrote: "I never toia you ot tne girl I used to be en gaged to. I don't know why. Last wee i got a letter from her. The following Sunday I saw her for the first time in two years. I had hon estly thought our friendship was ended, but the moment I laid eyes on her again I was hit as hard as when I first met her. I hesitated about writing this letter because it probably will hurt you. entertain ing as I do for your feelings of the highest regard. She, it seems, feels the same way after the two years. Please forgive me, Amelia." "Amelia" Is thinking up fitting forms of punishment for the young man. It was a nice friendship while it lasted, wasn't It Amelia? Let the memory of it remain a pleasant one. That man and girl can no more combat love as they have experi enced It than you can be held re sponsible for the color of your eyes auu uuir.

Playlet Presented Sllverton "The Prodigal Son." the last pantomime sermon of a serins of several weeks' programs on Sim day evenings at the Sllverton Chris tian church, was the orinclual tea- ture of the services Sunday evening. Rev. W. O. Livingstone, pastor ot tlie church, originated the Idea of giving these playlets in substitution of the regular services. The arrangement hm hen MtlsfRetory. tion was the second reason advanc ed for postponing final budget ac tion. Members contended that with two directors to elect, It would be only fair to have the newly elected officers sit In on delibera tions pertaining to the budget for tne next school term. In connection with the action on the budget. Superintendent Hug was authorized to send notices to all teachers that their contracts for next year were contingent upon the decision of tne supreme court per taining to the tuition law. At the present times the high school tui tion fund Is tied up by an injunc tion and If the law should be de clared invalid, a considerable sum of money would be lost entirely. Two or three married teachers who have been ill for long periods during the past two school terms, will likely be the first ones to be let go in case It is found necessary to curtail the Instruction staff. The matter was brought up when Direc tor Neer asked Superintendent Hug where It would be possible to cut school activities if a curtailed bud get forced the Issue. Hug replied that the commercial department, shop department, art and music would probably be the first ones to feel the pruning knife. The warrant indebtedness of the district, after receding slightly for a week or two, has taken an uoward swing. Clerk Burghardt reported. with 213.262.98 now outstanding. This will be cut down when the dis trict receives the first allotment of tax money. Upon the recommendation of Mrs. Keene the board voted to improve tne grounds at Lincoln school with a lawn to the north of the building. The work will cost an estimated (250. Although the question was raised whether it was desirable to go ahead with the project In view of tne desire for curtailment of expens es, Mrs. Keene said she thought it advisable to improve school property as much as possible each year. It was pointed out that the Lincoln grounds were badly in need of Im provement. The matter of placing a sidewalk along the Englewood school property was referred to the building and grounds committee. The project was brought up when a communication from the city council, advising the board that it was ready to place a walk along the east side of 19th street between Nebraska avenue and Virginia street, was read. The board went on record against loaning school property to outside organizations for the reason that it did not deem it a wise policy. Con sequently the request of the music week committee for the loan of a number of school benches to be used at the armory the night of May when a civic program will be given, was denied. Superintendent Walter R. Dry of the state blind school asked per mission to send six blind students to Salem high next year. Four of them are totally blind while two, both from Salem, can read a little. The board decided to admit the students if the state would pay the tuition cnarges. The blind students would not take work In science and math ematics. The Girl Reserves, a high school organization, was granted permis sion to use the auditorium on the night of May 11 providing the group took care of toe expense for janitor services. VACCINATE PUPILS IN DALLAS SCHOOL Dallas Dr. A. B. Starbuck. coun ty health officer, began tha task Wednesday morning of vaccinating students In the high school here. According to Information supplied by the school authorities a girl pu pil from tti Salt Creek district appeared in school with an appar ent skin infection. In line with the policy adopted by the authorities she was sent to the doctor for an examination and was found to be suffering from an attack ot small pox, evidently arising from a con tact in the vicinity of her home. Precautionary measures were im mediately adopted and all students advised that vaccination was the order of the day and that those who objected to this procedure would be required to remain ab sent from school for a cioilnlte per iod. Superintendent R. R. Turner reports that the majority of the students arc accepting the situation in tne right spirit and are being treated. Dr. starbuck is being as sisted by Miss Eva Wald. superin tendent of the local hospital. MEETING CALLED ON AUTO LICENSE FEES Notice has been received bv J. E Smith from E. B. McDaniel, Port land, chairman of Governor Meier's committee on the matter of reduc tion ot automobile license fees, that the first meeting of the committee will be held Tuesday. April 28. at 10 o'clock at the Multnomah hotel in Portland. Smith Is a member of the committee. Commissioner Smith will carrv some interesting aata to the meet ing with him as he has secured let ters from all of the county Judges oi tne state giving their opinions on what should be done in the matter of automobile license reduction, es pecially as it refers to staving off a possible 3 license fee. While the tenor of the letters vary ereatlv with a miscellaneous assortment of opin ions, a note runs through most of them that a reduction is essential to ward off a $3 fee. but that there should be a sufficient gas tax added to make up the loss in fees. Walk on the Grass Says State Official Official Oregon believes In the enjoyment of Its people. Contrary to the usual "Keep off the grass" signs placed around the beautiful eapltol grounds. Secretary of State Hal E. Hoss is preparing signs read ing "Walk on the grass." "Oregon's bountiful rain and sun shine keeps the grass growing so rapidly there Is no occasion why people shouldn't enjoy it," Hoss said when explaining why he was possibly setting an unusual pre cedent. The grounds have never bora the old signs, but eltlsens have been timid tn walking across the grass to Inspect shrubs, bushes and trees, obtained from every state in the union, he said.
