"With or without offense to friends or fact I sketch your world exactly as it gnes." Byron The "Unwritten Rule" In advocating the election of C. M. Inmau of Salem, its hand picked candidate for circuit judtre of the third judicial district, over the incumbent, Judge L. G. Lewelling of Linn county, the Salem Statesman attacks the "unwritten rule" by which one judge should be chosen from each of the counties of the district. It says: If we examine this so-called "unwritten rule" we will find first tt has no legal standing; second It probably had no genuine origin; and third it has no present validity. Certainly no group of lawyers or citi zens could bind the voters In their rights of suflrage. And we have not learned of any persons who confess to have such a private understand ing. Years ago there were times when both Judges of this Judicial dis trict were Salem men: Judges Burnett and R. P. Boise at one time and Judge Burnett and Judge Galloway later. The facts do not bear out this assertion. Many years ago it is true that two Salem men sat on the bench of the third judicial district but it was not the same district then a3 now. The district then comprised five counties, Marion, Linn, Yamhill, Polk and Tillamook, and the judges covered the circuit, holding court in the five county seats. In 1913 the present third judicial district was created comprising Marion and Linn counties. Polk, Yamhill and Tillamook were detached and formed the 12th judicial district. In 1915, Tillamook was detached from this new district and with Washington formed the 19th judicial district. The original third district has been divided into three districts. Ever since the creation of the present third judicial dis trict the "unwritten law" of selecting one judge from Marion and the other from Linn has been observed, Judges Bingham and Kelly being the first selections, and their successors be ing likewise from the two counties and the rule has never been questioned before by cither the governor or electorate. This is to the advantage of litigants, members of the bar and the judiciary, as there is always a judge available in emer gency at each county scat, and one acts for the other when necessary. It is in the public interest that the present ar rangement continue. The Statesman is right when it says the position of cir cuit judge should command the services of the ablest, fair est, most competent of the men who are available, and on these grounds Judge Lewelling alone is entitled to reelection, for during his brief term, his decisions have proven able, fair and competent. He is not only versed in the law and its practice, but in its interpretation. He has an excellent rec ord as county prosecutor. On the other hand, Mr. Inman is without judicial experience, his apiiearances in court have been few and far between, and the fact that he has long been a teacher in Willamette law school does not necessarily qual ify him for the bench. Straw Straw votes may or may not be significant of the trend of public opinion, but the significant thing about them this year are that the results all trend in one direction the over whelming election of Roosevelt, hence those partisan papers that gave them front page and editorial prominence four years ago, are burying them in curtailed form on inside pages. There are a score of these straw votes being taken, 6ome of huge proportions, some by republican and some by democratic papers but they all reflect a political upheaval. The most extensive of these polls is that conducted by the Literary Digest. A total of 2,617,185 ballots have been tabulated from 48 states in its current issue Governor Roosevelt receives 1,473,446, or 56.30 percent, a gain in per centage from the 50.7 tabulated a week ago, and President Hoover gets 973,367, or 37.19 percent as against 40.8 per cent a week ngo. The remainder are for candidates of minor parties. Thomas receives 4.86 percent of the vote cast. Roosevelt is carrying 41 states and Hoover 7, the New England states and New Jersey. On the basis of the elec toral college, a division of the current balloting would give Roosevelt 474 electoral votes to Hoover's 57. a The figures arc significant, for they give Roosevelt a clear majority over all the candidates combined. A candi date who has a poll of nearly a million and a half votes in 48 states, three weeks before election is clearly in an advan tageous position. The advantage is the more impressive when the percentage of variation between the Digest poli and the final electoral count in 1928 is considered. In that year the Literary Digest poll was wrong by only 6 percent after being corrected for a 6 percent error in favo- of Hoover because of the way the list of voters are made U, from tele phone directories, auto registrations and other lists of the compuritively well-to-do. The most interesting feature revealed by the straw vote is the way party lines are being crossed, Roosevelt receiving 37 percent of his strength from former republicans, 48.9 percent from democrats and M.8 percent from new voters. Hoover obtains 80.6 percent from republicans, 6 percent from democrats and 13 percent from new voters. In a dozen states, Roosevelt is polling more republican than democratic votes. It is apparent that unless Rome unlikely and unexpected event occurs, Roosevelt's election is assured, for students of politics agree that few votes are changed so late in a cam paign like this. As a matter of fact a democratic landslide was clearly indicated as long ngo as 1930 when the republi ens lost the house of representativt s and most of the governors.

It Just Seems Literary Digest Poll Gives Hoover 7 States And 41 For Roosevelt Roosevelt is leading Hoover by slightly over 3 to 2 in the fifth week's tabulation of The Literary Digest's nation wide presidential poll for which returns from all 48 states arc reported in tomorrow's Issue or the magazine. A total of 2,617,185 ballots are tal lied in the current returns. Gov ernor Roosevelt receives 1,473,446 of these, or 56.30 per cent, and Presi dent Hoover Rets 973,367, or 37.19 per cent. The balance is divided among the five minor candidates with Norman Thomas receiving 4.86 per cent of the total vote cast. The 10 new states reported m this week's compilation Include Florida, Maryland, Minnesota, Mis- sourt, North Carolina, Oklahoma. Texas, Virginia, Washington and Wyoming. All are voting for Roos?velt. Hoover Is carrying the seven states of Mnine. Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut and New Jer sey. Roosevelt is ahead In all of the 41 other states. On the basis of an electoral col lege vote a division of the current balloting would give Roosevelt 474 electoral rotes to Hoover's 57. The voting in New York is closer tli an in any other state, making the outcome here doubtful at this time. Roosevelt is polling 159,428 votes to Hoover's 148.796. A close ruce Is also evident In Delaware, where Roosevelt has a plurality of only 202 votes out of a total of 5,682 cast in the state. Hoover made slight gains In the poll during the week in California and Rhode Island. The voting In all of the other 36 states previous ly reported has changed only frac tionally since the last report. The balloting from the 10 states for which first (mures are reported furnish the bulk of the lead which Roosevelt gams this week. The returns from "state un known" divided 5947 per cent for Roosevelt and 33.60 per cent for Hoover, which is slightly in excess of the democratic candidate's ratio for the country as a whole. The pollinR of the District of Co lumbia, which has no official ele ction shows Roosevelt receiving 4, 754 votes to Hoovers 3.577. The Oregon ballot is Hoover 6. 457, Roosevelt 12,000, Thomas 771, Reynolds 47, Coxey 34, Upshaw 113. Foster 114, miscellaneous 95. Of the Hoover vote, 5,176 came from republicans, 312 from democrats, and 96tf from new voters. Of the Roosevelt vote 5,969 came from re publicans, 4,278 from democrats and 1,731 from new voters.

Wednesday 4 2 The National Whirligig News Behind the News By Pul Mailon Washington The trouble with Europe Is that Germany nag France on the run and knows H. That Is the secret behind recent unfathom able developments there. It explains why the scheduled disarmament agreement encountered delays, why promised French concessions have not brought results. It sounds like French propaganda, but comes from too disinterested 9 source to bear that label. ' The view was brought to the high er administration circle here by a man commissioned to investigate the European situation unofficially. It threw a scare into those who had high hopes of a peaceful solution of affairs in Europe. As analyzed by this administration adviser, German diplomacy Is un dergoing a change. World sympathy has been for her and against France in recent years. Everyone knew tliat French security was ttie obstacle to settlement of reparations, disarma ment and other developments desir ed Internationally. It appears now that with France ready to get into line Germany is getting cocky. The investigator reported in dies - evening at 7:30, prarer meeting and Bible study.

OCTOBER 21, 1932 Uons that Germany is trading to ward the abort-sighted attitude that turned the world against her ID years ago. He says the is beginning to realize too well she has the uiper hand. She Is bent on anna equality and does not care particularly whether It Is authorised by treaty revisions. These statements might not be so Important If it wen not (or the tact that they may bring a change In our policy shortly. We would Just as soon squeeze Germany as Prance if she turned out to be tne colored gentle man In the European kindling. It coming developments show the Eu ropean situation continuing mat way we may have something to say. The source o( the information Is of sufficient standing to permit a policy to be based on his views, II future news shows that things have not changed. Our statesmen still believe Oer many may see the llKhl . They expect a disarmament agreement which wlU bring Germany equality within ten years. Another thing certainly coming Is regulation of public utilities. The holding back some evidence on that score. It will oe reieasea auvr elec tion.

He does not want to get involved In the presidential campaign, inc ix gion has the democratic side of the prohibition argument. Also there may be a change of tactics in the bonus campaign. Lit tle business men may be rounded up Instead of big ones to endorse the banus Issue. The big boys were coy. They represent finance while the little icnows nave ie irauc view. French government officials are suspicious that Mussolini has a sec ret understanding with the Ger mans. Both parties privately deny it and the situation indicates the sus picions are groundless. If there were an agreement it would probably show up by Italy giving Austria an outlet to the sea. That lias not hap pened and does not appear to be In the cards. Experts here agree the possibilities of Russia ever compet ing with the United States in cotton production are remote. If the Soviets sell cotton It will be fore a need of cash. The Soviets will continue as a cotton importing country for as far in the future as anyone can now see.
