"With or without offense to friends or foes I sketch your world exactly as it goes." - Passing of a King In the passing of King George V, Great Britain loses an ideal constitutional monarch, one who faithfully lived up to the limitations of his office, who ruled during a troublesome ra with a courtesy, ability, tact and intelligence that endear ed him to the people of an empire that circles the globe. Perhaps there have been greater kings than George V, more foreful sovereigns, but none more democratic, consci entious and industrious or who more cheerfully and courage ously met the numerous crises occasioned by and growing out of the world war and the ensuing depressions. It has been an age when thrones were toppled, royal families exiled, and ruthless dictatorships established. But in spite of the assaults of radicals, communists and fascists, the traditional liberty and democracy of Britain has been pre served and the monarchy more firmly established than ever. Contrary to popular belief in the United States, the king of England is not a mere social figurehead, but an active ad viser and participant in government, one who accepts the verdict of the majority and steers his course by it. Shorn of fuedal power, the king has become the beloved symbol of the nation, and George V proved his ability in the directing of British policies. The new king, Edward VIII is widely known throughout the world, versatile and popular, with perhaps more of the dash of his grandfather Edward VII than of the plodding industry of his father. His wide knowledge of the world and of its people bespeak for his reign a continuation of the traditions that have preserved the British empire. A $400,000,000 Bonus The reply of the supreme court to the government's pe tition that it be granted the usual 25 days for filing a request for a reconsideration of AAA decisions affecting the release of the impounded processing taxes was a curt refusal and an order for the immediate refund of the $200,000,000 to pro cessors. The government petitioned on the ground that the rul ing for processing taxes refunds "destroyed essential safe guards to the orderly and uninterrupted collection of all fed eral taxes and imperils the normal functioning of govern ment,'' of the "pay first and litigate afterwards" principle that has always governed. A clarification was asked of the court's opinion, and the contention raised that the ruling re versed an earlier one in a similar case. So the $200,000,000 which as already been paid by the consumer through higher prices charged by the processors, though the government got none of it, will be returned to the processors, and as it will be impossible to return any part of it to the consumer, it contitutes a bonus to the manufactur er.These impounded taxes were to be paid by the government to the farmers for cooperation government is pledged to make these payments to the farnv er, the taxpayer will have to pungle up the money, thus pay ing it twice, once as a consumer and again as taxpayer. Thus the supreme court 000,000 swat for the consumer-taxpayer and a $400,000,000 bonus for the middle men, $200,000,000 profit realized by charging higher prices for processed products and $200,000,- 000 impounded taxes ordered returned. It is a perverted sort of justice. Facts to be Faced Defective as it may be in minor respects defects that can be easily corrected when year from now the so-called sales tax measure upon which the people of Oregon will vote at the special election of Jan uary 81 offers the only immediate means of financinir pen sions for the aged, blind and aoies. Defeat of the measure will leave the state and the coun ties without one cent with which to care for these depend ents, except to such extent as their needs can be cared for out of direct relief funds. In Marion county, it is estimated, the amount available for direct relief will be about $6 a month per person a sum woefully inadequate for the care of any totally incapacitated man or woman. The wisdom of the legislature in transferring all direct tax pension levies from the pension fund to direct re lief purposes when formulating the sales tax program is questionable; particularly so when the substitute plan for financing pensions was made contingent upon a referendum vote. But the condition exists wherein old age pensions must bo paid out of sales tax revenues or not at all. If the sales tax fails there can be no hope of pension funds for a period of three or four months at the least. To find substitute money would require another special session of the legislature, which could not be convened in less than three or four weeks. Its deliberations would consume an other two weeks or more, and no tax measure it could devise could become operative in less than 90 days after adjourn ment. With a sales tux of one form or another eliminated from consideration as it would bo by an adverse vote on January 81 the problem of where to turn for money would be a real one for the law makers. The operation of the six percent tax increase limitation would restrict the possibility of im posing additional proiwrty, income or inheritance levies in an amount necessary to provide the needed funds. To re store the former pension levy would be to rob direct relief of needed money. The sales tax must be approved or Oregon's aged and blind will be in a sorry plight.

The city was charged with it and so were the Legations. Back at his Embassy Fox learned that Ray West had accepted the Old Man's advice and the American polo party would sail for New York via Vera Cruz. Nor did the Ambassador's advis ory powers stop there. He gave the attache to understand that his next brainstorm would draw more than a rebuke it would entail a transfer to Zanzibar or some other place, if not a dismissal from the Foreign Service. The Old Man would have said more but he had to take time out to get purple over a Washington de spatch and Fox returned to a desk full of cables and messages to be decoded. He felt singularly unlnv pressed about the threats to his ca. reer. What he had done was worth it. He didn't fall in love every day. All night long he worked. Dent was swearing at the consul who was much mystified over the disappear ance of two American seamen and had reported an "overt act" to the Embassy. The house of the Ministry of Finance had been picketed by police guards against a threatening crowd, The President and his Cabinet were conferring behind locked doors at the Palace. Everybody was looking toward Propionoire. The atmosphere was lovely for a rest cure. And the next day the strets and parks were thronged with people. Fox prayed for tne hours to pass. The Vera Cruz ship was to sail at ten that night. And night, he thought, would never come. At half-past eight the Ambassador took his nose out of a sheaf or le ports long enough to order him as an official representative oi tne ism bassy to bid the party Godspeed. Proprieties and amenities must be observed at all times Rule some-thlng-or-other of the efficient For eign officer. The attache didn't reach tne Al- vio untU shortly after nine. Traffic congestion in the streets was ter rible. He scarcely knew whether he'd find Allaire there or not, but final ly located her on one of the hotel balconies viewing the lighted pan orama of the capital. The Avenlda Georgian stretched across the city from the great hotel straight as an arrow, toward the Capitol building with its brilliantly lighted fountains throwing leaping sprays of changing color to uie aarK velvet sky. "Allaire!" he said. She turned slowly, almost reluc tantly. "Oh George. Cheerio, son. Beau tiful, isn't it?" "Your boat, Allaire. We'd better go" "I don't know whether I will or not." Her voice was low and measured. A quick stab of panic went through him. "Allaire please" A moment her eyes dwelt on his strained face, then sho smiled. "I have an idea that you're some where behind the Ambassador's urg ent proposal. Oh, well, don't worry, George. I won't embarrass you. I UNDOWN' RIES THE LOCKED DOOR By Mary Graham Bonner "Did you sco Top Notch? Did you talk to him? How is he? What 13 llio matter?" asked tho Puddle Muddlers as Willy Nllly returned. "I didn't sco him," Willy NUly re plied, "but I knocked at the door and ho spoke to me without opening It, He said he wanted some more food and he wanted me to take It aown to him." "Well, he can't be ill," bleated Sweet Face, tho lamb. "Why don't you go right Inside when you take down the food?" sug- Rested Christopher Columbus Crow. "Then you can see for yourself what Is the trouble. T didn't like to do that when he didn't ask me in," said Willy Nllly slowly, "but I do believe he'd like me to go In and really talk to him. Yes. that Is a good suggestion of yours Christopher, "I'll walk right in when I ibko down the food. WUIv Nllly fixed up a basket full of delicacies for Top Notch, and Just as he was leaving Chnstopner shouted: "Look, Willy Nllly, there's Top Notch's mirror in the snowr 'Oh, dearl" sighed Willy Nllly. "Something must bo happening or he wouldn't have forgotten his mir ror. At least. If he had lost It, he would have been hunting for It." Willy Nllly went down to Top Noth's shed as fast aa his rather long legs could carry his rather short body. He went right ira to the door at Top Notch's shed and tried to lift thc latch. But It wouldn't budge Tori Notch had evidently fastened a hnlrl smnui It fmm In.lHn Notchl" Willy Nllly cried. Arrtyou In trouble?'

A last minute she lingered, assim ilating the vista of dancing lights, the strains of music from a nearby cafe, the pulse of swirling traffic, then his arm in hers they left the balcony and went out Into the street. In the taxi he lit a clgaret and smoked furiously. . "I'm going to ask. to be trans ferred. Or resign or something. Any way I'm going to the States as soon as I see this rotten mess through." "You wax emphatic," she drawled lazily. "And your brow Is somewhat fevered," she added, passing a hand over his forehead. "Mr. Fox, are you in love, perchance?" "Mr. Fox," he admitted grimly, "is plenty In love." And what is Mr. Fox in love with, pray? His art?" He said it quite calmly. "With you, sainted wench." Allaire glanced at him keenly, lounging sideways against the cush ions, her hands clasped against one hip. "Darling, this is a hell of a time to tell me a thing like that, don't you think?" "Why? Because I suddenly realize you're really leaving? Back to the States with this place just an in terlude in your life.' He took both of her hands and she yielded them, unresisting. I'm Just shooting the works, Allaire like throwing a last ditch forward pass. I'm crazy abouc you." . His eyes crinkled at the comers in his boyish grin. "If I'm not or iginal, I can't help it. I'm just try ing to ask you to marry me. And I'm going to chase you to the States to ask you again." She tilted her head back and re garded him in mock estimation. "Very acceptable. Harvard man, athlete, extraordinary good-looking, rising in the diplomatic service, with enough money to be an Ambassa dor some day truly a catch." "Yes," he commented, "and what I'm catching now is nobody's busi ness. Still," he added, considering, T haven't been let down so easy since the time I was lowered into a cradle at the age of thirty days." "Don't, Georgci" she said, swiftly contrite. "I didn't mean it quite like that. But, oh. can't you see I don't want to talk about those things now. Not here in this place. I've Just found out I don't know what it's all about. I have to learn to stop cry ing for the moon. That's what this queer place finally taught me. There isn't any moon. Will you give me a clgaret?" "Well," he said, holding a light for her, "that's settled and I'll just have to hope you're still in circula tion by the time I get back to the States. Lord, that's a lot to expect." The girl rested while chin on fist and stared at the top of an idly swinging satin slipper. "I promise you," she said gently, "I will be." They swept up to the dock. He escorted her up the gangway and immediately realized any hope of being with her alone before she sailed was void. The polo party was laughing about "being chased out of town." They referred to Vera Cruz as though it was the name of a Mexican movie actress. Fox lost Allaire in the crowd. He went back to the dock as the whistle blew and eagerly search ed the faces at the ship's rail.

(Associated Prta Photo) News Behind The News By Paul Mallon (Copyright, 1836, by Paul Mallon) Washington, Jan. 20 Mr. Mor- genthau told the senators that It looks as if he will have to tap tne bankers' tills for five million dollars more In new loans shortly. He will need it to pay the bonus, relief and the processing tax refund. Forty-eight hours later, the man who was to handle all this new fin ancing for him quit, without official explanation. Naturally, all the Insiders and outsiders here have been adding up these two ominous events and get ting all sorts of answers, including chaos, inflation or whatever may occur to you. The only certain thing Is that most of the current answers .are likely to-be wrong. No one knows the real answer, Including Mr. Mor genthau, who confessed as much. The way this vast incomprehen sible situation Is sized up frankly by the best fiscal authorities here is this: Mr. Morgenthau probably will be able to avoid any greenbacklng or inflationary tricks to get his money, if he wants to. Those who know how he and President Roosevelt have worked this money game believe that both of them will want to. There will probably be no more tricks now with the bookkeeping gold profit. They will need that $1, 800,000,000 for the stabilization fund for a long time yet. There probably will be no action to open the gold market, as asked by the committee for the nation .Nor is there any likelihood of reopening" the domes tic gold and silver markets. One thing may be banked on. The taxes you have seen so far are on ly the beginning of what you will see, after the election. ' Personalities Pleased and dis pleased fiscal authorities who know Messrs. Roosevelt and Morgenthau thoroughly seem to agree that both are essentially sound money men. That is, they want to spend, but spend within reason. Where the pleased and displeased have dis agreed and parted is on the ques tion of where the line of reason lies This is supposed to explain the departure of Assistant Treasury Secretary Coolidge. Men with the combination to the. treasury vaults say Mr. Coolidge did not suddenly become displeased. Nor was there any definite break on a definite pol icy. Rather, they noticed Mr. Coolidge month by month lately becoming more and more depressed with the prospects of raising money to meet more and more expenditures. Confidence There is one new reason why the experts believe that Mesrss, Roosevelt and Morgenthau may safely raise the money in pros pect. It Is that the country is no longer finicky on the money ques tion. If recent polls of public opin ion are any indfoation, the people are thinking and talking about .spending, unemployment, farm re lief, etc., but not about inflation. In fact, the Inflationists bloc was so weak on the bonus in Congress the -other day that it was unable to put up even a good fight. Two years ago, Mr. Roosevelt had to trick thein out of putting something over on him (stiver). The other reasons are the same old ones which have enabled the unpecedented financing done so far. The banks are filled with money, have no place to lend vast sums. except to the government Burden The inside on the tax situation is as clear as the immin ence of unexpected spending. New dealers do not want any new taxes levied before election if they can help it. They may have to impose some excise taxes in con nection with the new farm program, but they will hold until the last electoral vote Is counted to delay tho new general tax legislation which the current situation obvious ly demands. That Is good politics. It is equally clear where the new burden is going to fall when it does. There Is no more real revenue in the rich, because there are so few rich. Nor is there much more to be gained from the poor, and ev eryone else, by sales and excise tax es. After all. the current state sales taxes are as much as that traffic will bear. There is only one place the gov ernment can get such revenue as Is now being talked about. That Is in LIFE'S BIG v 'SWis' WITH OCM STgSgSL. BOTTLE OF SODA POP. taxes on incomes below $50,000. They will pay the bill. Glitter No one here is paying any attention to the new pressure cam paign of the committee for the na tion. The idea prevalent on the In side here is that opening of the gold market would cause the price oi gold to go down, not up. The reason why the agitation for re-opening of the domestic gold and silver' markets is not getting any where either is that such action might cause hoarding again. The current financial situation is not yet so settled as to prevent a pos sible rush into two such basic com moditles, out of respect to their fix- ed value, which, Incidentally, has not been entirely fixed during the last six years. Worse The tight-lipped secretary of the treasury was conservative in his estimates to the senators. The truth Is he will probably have to raise a lot more than $5,000,000,- 000 In new money during the next seventeen months. He took a sub-bottom estimate on the bonus and on undisclosed re lief needs. Also, he failed to figure in the new farm program, a possible farm tenant bill and a couple of billion dollars of other possible odds and ends. However, this does not alter his financing chances mater- ially. Nor does the prospect that he will have to do about $6,000,000,000 of refinancing in the next 17 months. Refinancing is compara tively easy. But if the debt is not upwards of $36,000,000,000 before he gets through, a lot of important silk hats will be eaten around Washington. MRS.

Does a man become a Senator when the votes are counted or when he takes his seat in the Senate? T. V A. ,V When he takes his seat. In a sji-jch made by Senator George in defining the right of Senator Holt to be admitted to the Senate, he said in part: "There is a distinction and a difference between the Senator elect from the date of the beginning of his term down to the time when , he actually assumes the duties of the office of Senator and after that time. . . The election of one of pub lic office does not make him a publio officer. Until the person elected hat come to the Senate, has entered the body, and has taken his place as a member, he Is not in a position, nox does he have the power nor the re sponsibility to cast a single vote, to register a single official act which could influence any policy of thi Government."
