From Page One
disregard for the law by the district
attorney and coroner in taking it
upon themselves to exonerate the
driver without submitting the facts
tc a coroner's Inquest for the deter
mination of responsibility.
The editorial criticizing the district
attorney for not ordering a formal
inquiry was prefaced with the state
ment that "Without presuming re
sponsibility for the accident ... to
necessarily lie with the driver of the
death car' ... it is pertinent to in
quire by what authority the state
police and district attorney so glibly
exonerated the driver of nil blame."
The Capital Journal took and still
lakes the position that It is the duty
of the police and the district attor
ney to marshal all of the facts for
presentation to the coroner's jury,
but that It is the function of the cor
oner's jury to determine responsibil
ity. .
The text of Mr. Trindle's letter
follows:
"My attention has been called to
an editorial appearing in your paper
last evening, December 7, under the
caption of "Official White-wash,"
in which you proceed to excortiate
myself and a member of the State
Police Force who investigated the
'accident which Wednesday evening
snuffed out the life of Colonel A. J.
Baldwin,' and particularly to that
portion of the article wherein you
charge that we so 'glibly exonerated
the driver' . . in a case of violent
death involving presumptive viola
ilon of a law enacted for the protec
tion of life and property.
"In the nearly two years I have
held the office of District Attorney,
my duties have, on many occasions,
required me to work with the Ore
gon State Police. In so doing I have
found them uniformly courteous,
painstaking and efficient. I have,
therefore, come to regard their find
ings of fact in every case, when pre
sented to me, with a high degree of
credulity. In the particular instance
of the Baldwin case, the investiga
tion was made by Officer NUes. It
so happened that I myself was at
the scene of this accident within ap
proximately five minutes after It
happened. I, therefore, had not only
the benefit of the information gath
ered by this office, but in addition
such facts as I was able to gather
from witnesses present at the scene
and from physical evidence on the
ground. After a full analysis of this
evidence I concurred In the opinion
of Officer Nlles that there was no
indication of criminal negligence on
which the driver of the 'death car'
should be hold."
"Mr. Means was a resident of this
vicinity, employed by a reliable
firm; he was vouched for by several
of his friends and neighbors, and I,
personally, couid see no reason for
throwing him in jail when neither
of us were able to determine that
any offense had been committed
which would warrant an arrest. It
is a policy of the state police, which
is concurred in by my office, to
make arrests only when it is neces
sary to hold the Individual to ans
wer for n crime, I could not at the
time, nor do I now Fee, any reason
to handle this case in any otnci
manner than the one usually em
ployed by them.
"So far as exoneration of the
driver Is concerned, there was no
attempt on the part of either of us
to In any degree whatsoever grant
him immunity from prosecution.
The so-called "exoneration" is one
which apparently originated with
your reporter, and not with either
of us, and having once permitted
your paper to set up Its straw man,
you proceeded In your editorial to
knock him down.
"I cannot think that a man of
your character would make charges
of a nature of those made In this
article, or that a paper of the stand
ing of the Capita Journal would
carry charges of a violation of the
law, without a belief on vour nart
that there was some evidence to
sustain them. I am, therefore,
calling a session of the grand Jury
to be held at the court house. Wed
nesday, December 12, at 10 o'clock,
a. m., at which time you are invit
ed to be present and present any
evidence you may have, or the
names of any witnesses within your
knowledge which may tend to dis
close to the grand jury a violation
of the law.
"I have arranged with Captain
McClain of the state police to furn
ish you any member of the force
you desire to run down any rumor
which may have come to your at
tention and which was the cau.se of
the editorial in question. In ord-T

EFFIGY HANGS
Baton Rouge. La., Dec. 8 (P) Dr.
James M. Smith, president of Loui

in effigy today from a flagpole in
the center of the university emipus.
The "body" was cut down at 6:45
a. m.
Identity of those involved In the
effigy affair was undetermined, but
the hanging was reported to have
been an outgrowth of Dr. Smith's
refusal to permit a student meeting
yesterday for discussion of the
Huey Long censorship of the "Rev
eille," Louisiana State campus pa
per. The grotesque effigy of the col
lege president was discovered about
12 feet in the air dangling by a
rope from a greased pole. Major
Troy Middleton directed a detail
to remove It. The figure, a "straw
man." was then spirited away be
fore many persons viewed it.
A placard upon his chest read:
"James Monroe Smith, 'Jimmy the
Stooge.' hanged In effigy December
7, 1934."

GET SPACE BACK
An ordinance bill to prevent au
tomobile service stations from
usurping the public streets, and
compel them to relinquish most of
me space already usurped will be
up for final action by the city
council at its next meeting. It was
introduced last Monday night by
me utilities committee.
Under the present unregulated
system service stations are allowed
to take up unlimited space, some of
them as much as a quarter of a
block or more on two streets. This,
of course, taken extensive parking
space away from the public, which
becomes doubly serious since the
police department is now enforcing
the ordinance against double park
ing. The proposed ordinance, which
applies to any business using drive
ways, would require that no drive
way could be more than 20 feet
wide. If the business has frontage
on two or more streets then a 20
foot driveway would be allowed on
each street. Should the frontage
exceed half a block on any street
then two drive-ways would be per
mitted on that street.
Establishments already using more
driving space than provide for In
the bill would be given 90 days In
which to reconstruct and return to
the city any space In excess of that
provided in the bill. This would
necessitate the rebuilding of num
erous curbs and sidewalks that were
removed when some of the service
stations were built.
MUSIC FESTIVAL
SET DECEMBER 15
Tile third annual Marlon County
Music festival will be held In the
auditorium of the Salem high school
Saturday night, December 15. with
students from Stayton, Woodburn,
Gervais, Jefferson, Hubbard and
Salem participating. The festival
is being sponsored by Uie Marlon
County High School Principals' as
sociation. Similar festivals were
held in 1031 and 1932, but none was
held last year.
Christmas music will have a big
part in this year's festival, although
there will be several secular num
bers. There will be quartets, glee
clubs, solos, trios and mixed groups.
In connection with the festival
the Salem high school chapter of
the National Honor society will con
duct the ritual of Initiation for a
number of Marion county students
who have been selected for mem-,
bership. This initiation of county
students is a continuation of the
policy adopted last year by the high
school principals whereby communi
ties not large enough to support a
National Honor society chapter ot
its own can become affiliated nev
ertheless. RIPE BERRIES IN
