A Chance to Dress Up
Are Salem and Marion county going to take full advant
age of the opportunity afforded by current and pending high
Wnvrmtnt to dress ud the "show windows of Ore-
o-nn'a eanital city?
The question arises in connection with the highway de
partments program for landscaping and lighting the north
and south Pacific highway approaches and entrances to the
city. The north entrance, through the artistic new $300,000
nmu hetiMth the Southern Pacific tracks, has been
completed with ornamental lights and the parking strips
have been graded and are ready for planting.
Utilization of the lights, however, except those incident
to the protection of traffic hinges upon the agreement of the
city to maintain them and pay for the power consumed. The
extent and nature of the plantings depend upon the willing
ness of the city or county, or both to provide the water and
care necessary to the growth and preservation of such shrubs
and trees as are planted.
, From the south the highway approach to the city has
been widened and Improved as far north as the junction of
the 12th street cut-off road, and extension of that improve
ment to the south end of Commercial street Is planned for
the coming year, providing a fine four-lane roadway from the
city limits to the "Y" at the Liberty road junction. The wide,
sweeping roadways and the two triangles formed by the in
tersection "Ys" offer an unusual opportunity for roadside
beautification at little cost
Funds are available to the highway department to grade
nd shape the road banks and the triangles and provide
shrubs and trees, but the state has no money at its disposal
for the maintenance of such plantings. If beautification of
this type is desired the city and county must undertake to
provide for their future care, as is required of other cities
and counties.
The time to take advantage of this opportunity Is while
.the work is in progress.
An Essay in Futility
The most thankless job in the world seems to be to get
women to look for their beauty aids in healthful exercise and
correct diet rather than cosmetics. At least that Is the con
clusion reached by a distinguished scientist who points out
that for countless generations the futile effort has been made
to save women from themselves by the expenditure of tax
payers' money to reduce "as far as possible the hazards upon
which the women of the day squander their annual billions,"
much of it on poisonous mixtures.
Speaking at the centennial celebration of the birth of
Charles Frederick Chandler, first public health chemist in
America, Dr. Haven Emerson, director of public health of the
College of Physicians and Surgeons, wondered whether this
protective effort was worth while so far as women and their
cosmetics were concerned, when he remarked:
"As one looks about the cadaveric linger tips, the enameled toe-nails,
the deformed eyebrows, the tilled facial creases that try to reveal charac
ter but are cheated out of It, the hectic cheek reminiscent of the fever
ward of a tuberculosis hospital, the Ill-assorted daubs of aniline upon the
lips, one wonders If It Is worth the while of the congress to try to enact
- protective legislation, or health officers and their laboratories to attempt
enforcement of local ordinances, to save a beauty-mad generation from
those qualities of cosmetics that threaten to replace the bloom of health
with one more appropriate to a dish of wax fruit.
The delusion persists that such artificiality makes for
beauty and attractiveness of the fair sex when in the opinion
of mere man, they have the contrary effect. The calcimined
face, or the brazen crimsoned cheeks, the scarlet lips, the blood
stained finger nails, the plucked eyebrows and other aids of
camouflage are repulsive rather than alluring. These inartis
tic efforts to paint the lily and perfume the rose are frequent
ly so absurd as to be ridiculous.
But what is to be done about it? Nothing, for it has been
trait of femininity since history first dawned. The tombs
of ancient Egypt reveal that cosmetics had attained a high
perfection 5000 years ago, and the records of other nations of
antiquity testify to their vogue. Even the women of primi
tive peoples surviving today persistently try to improve
upon nature sometimes with grotesque result. So men might
as well grin and bear It and philosophically get what quiet
amusement tney can out or leminine lolly.
Sauce for Goose, Sauce for Gander
Along back in 1932, when Mr. Roosevelt was first a can
didate for president, he promised to reduce the Hoover budget
by 25 percent. Mr. Hoover asked him, "Just where would you
cut expenses?" Mr. Roosevelt gave him an answer, which he
could well apply to budtret cutting now. when his budget is
about three billion dollars larger than the Hoover budget of
1932. Mr. Roosevelt said:
You cannot go very far with any real federal economy without a
complete change of concept of what are the proper functions and limits
of the Federal government Itself. You have got to stop the centralising
first, and then you can stop the spending. Ever since the days of Thomas
Jefferson the Idea of centralising control of everything In Washington
has been the exact reverse of the democratic concept. And In the latter
pnuosopny we would approach the problem of the budget.
It is futile, said Mr. Roosevelt in 1932, to expect "any im
portant economy" from an administration "committed to the
idea that we ought to center control of everything in Wash
Ingon as rapidly as possible." For centralization of control ne
cessarily involves the creation of "the unprecedented bureau
cracy that has assembled in Washington In the past four
years." It involves the establishment of the innumerable
boards and commissions which have grown up as excrescences
on the regular system. And it involves an increase of Federal
expenditures at "the most reckless and exaravagant pace 1
have ever been able to discover in the statistical record of any
peacetime government anywhere, any time."
Mr. Roosevelt however has continued the process of cen
tralizing all control not only in Washington but in his own
hands. He has enormously increased the bureaucracy, and all
of his "must" measures, for which he has called a special ses
ion of congress, call for still greater centralization and mul
tiplication of bureaucracy. So if he wants to balance the bud
get, as he advised Hoover, he must have "a complete change
of concept of what are the proper functions and limits of the
federal government itself."

The proposal would require the

For whatever It
Is worth, their latest private guess
is that this Is a good time to buy
stocks. Apparently a lot of them fol
lowed their own guesses as washing-
ton brokers reported much of what
they call "good buying" for cash by
authorities here since the big break
Monday. Of course no authority
bought on borrowed money. They
are too wise for that
But their reasoning about buylng-for-cash-lnvestment
went something
like this:
If we are not to be forced Into de
flation, then pessimism has s gone
too far. If we are to be forced into
Inflation, cash Is not a good thing
to have on hand.
Hands-off Policy
One Inner group here has been
trying to get Mr. R. to "do some
thing." They even wanted him to
rush out with a statement that
"everything is fundamentally sound,"
either at his federal reserve board
dedication speech or sooner.
This group did not Include the ex
perienced financial advisers In fed
eral reserve and the treasury. They
counseled hands-off. There were only
a few good things which could be
done, such as (A) releasing more
gold, and (B) starting heavy open
market operations. The gold move
ment could easily have been made
at any time. It Is only a bookkeep
ing transaction. The open market
operations would do the same thing,
In a harder way, t e. give the banks
more money to lend. But these
things would not force the banks to
lend. Either move would only be a
gesture.
A third thing mentioned was the
prospect of blaming It all on the
bankers and brokers again, hanging
some of them In oratorical effigy.
While- that is considered politically
desirable, and may be attempted.
all realized It would not meet the
situation either.
Wisest of wall Streeters did not
call for any government action.
They thought their main trouble
was that there had been too much
of It already.
Arkansas Election
The Arkansas senatorial election
waa advertised as a new deal defeat,
and It was. But It held a deeper and
different lesson than that
The victor, John Miller, Is a man
very much like Senator Joe Rob
inson whom he' now replaces, for
Roosevelt on some things, against
him on others He was elected by the
old Robinson organization, plus Mrs.
Caraway, plus his own personal
popularity as a levelheaded fellow.
Against htm was a for-Roosevelt-on-everythlng
governor who had
complimentary letters from Farley,
Madame Secretary Perkins, Wallace
and Harry Hopkins. The dor. (Carl
Bailey) obtained the nomination
through th state organization, and
not by a party primary. He advertised
bis proximity to the presidential
coat tails.
So the Miller candidacy was a re
bellion against the democratic ma
chine ticket nomination of Bailey.
and for the first time since anyone
can remember, the ticket was un
successful in a southern state.
The decision upheld the hand of
congressmen who have been resisting
the Rosoevelt-on-everythlng theory;
It repudiated a hand-made national-
machine ticket for the first time in
the south.
But if anyone thinks It means
Roosevelt would not carry Arkansas
today he Is welcome to go down there
and try It No one here will.
Wagner Forced Strauss
Nathan Strauss, capable new
housing administrator, was appoint
ed only because Senator Wagner
forced his selection. This was na
tural. The 5J,000.000 new federal
program for low cost housing and
slums clearance got through the
last congress only because Wagner
pushed the administration Into It.
There Is little hope near the top
that any great measure of economic
or reform success will attend the
venture. No one considers it more
than a beginning which probably
will not be followed up strongly.
Publicity about the appointment
over-measured It as a great blow to
Interior Secretary Ickes. His candi
date was Howard Gray, head of PWA
housing, but there was some back
stage dealing beforehand which in
dicates ickes will be in the front If
not In the center of the housing
picture. Incidentally he also seems
to be back In the good graces of the
White House.
