Malfiy Peninsula Wonders. EVEE see a tree-climbing fish T Ever Bee a monkey brush its teeth f Ever see a full grown bear 15 inches high, or a deer seven inches from hoof to horn? No, no; you've guessed wrong. This is not to be an article telling of tho baleful effects of the demon rum. No rivalry to Baron Munchausen is-being at tempted hero either. "What is contemplated is merely to comment a little on tho veracious chronicles of one Carvath Wells, Fellow of tho Royal Geographical So ciety, as given by himself in a lecture in New York Thursday evening last. v ' Fellow "Wells is an explorer who has recently germ inated a stay of six years on tho Malay peninsula. He had gone there to see what he could see, and it appears he got an eyeful. Some of the component parts thereof, as set out in his lecture and whose list was carried to a waiting world over tho Associated .Press are these: Fellow Wells saw a dance, wink ono eye and Fellow Wells saw a monkey brushing its teeth at a brookfiine. '. Feliow Wells saw a full 15 inches high when it stood on haunches. Fellow Wells saw a deer that measured seven inches from hoof to horn. Follow Wells, saw a plant flatten itself against tlie ground when ono stamped a foot near it. Fellow Wells saw bird that slept upside down. The summary of Fellow Wells' lecture as carried by the Associated Press and published in The Guard yesterday was very interesting indeed to read and the lecture itself was doubtless even more interesting to hear. Let us not scoff. Let us not cry "nature faker!" Let ns not be like tho man at the circus who insisted while looking at the first giraffe ho had over seen, "There aint no such darn animal." Let ns consider sympathetically Fellow Wells' statement that things generally are upside' down in tho Malay peninsula. Let 'ws remember, too, that tho Malay peninsula is a very considerable distance from Broadway, and that it would not be easy to get confirmation or its" opposite quickly about tho wonders ono may find there in tho course of a six-year stay. And let us remember finally that it was a New York audience Fellow Wells was address ing. Now York audiences get ennuied and are hurd to hold unless you givo them pop-eyed stuff. Bonds and SOME of those who advocate the voting down, if neces sary, of tho whole city improvement programme for the sake of carrying tho lower McKonzio water project at the coming city bond election, are saying that if tho iMcKenzic bonds tiro voted, tho burden of. payment of their Interest and principal will not fall upon tho tax payers, but that they will bo paid from city water de partment revenues. The statemont is worthy of exam ination. Will tho McKenzio water bonds, if carried, bo paid, principal and interest, from water revenues at present water rates to tho consumer f Or at increased rates to tho consumer! And if at increased rales, what rates! Those who will voto at tho coming bond elec'tion are all water consumers. Doubtless they would liko to bo enlightened on theso points. Will those who say that water department revenues will pay interest null principal of tho McKen.io bonds furnish an analysis showing by detailed figures tho basis on which this plan would bo worked out, including a showing as to what tho effect would bo, if any, on existing water rates to tho consumer t If tho proposed McKenzio project water bonds, principal and interest, can bo funded from water tie jmrtment revenues, and without levying increased rates upon water consumers, that will removo much of the ground. for tho doubts which now lionet some taxpayers as to tho wisdom of carrying tho Mclvenzio project as an immediato enterprise, and will make unnecessary the measure which some of that project's advocates favor, of sacrificing tho city improvement programme to it. How quickly residence in a great city brings bucolic innoccneo into tho ways of sophistication! Already tho Statesman's new editor, Mr. Tooze, who came up to Salem from his rural contacts in Clackamas county, has been to a thoater. Tho play, ho tells his public, in n double-leaded, double-column measure editorial of some length, played in New York "for weeks on end" at $2.75 a seat and yet it can be seen in Salem for 50 cents. Ho recommends very strongly that everybody go. May we bo pardoned if wo hazard the guess that Editor Tooze 's pans must have been good for logo scats T - Tho geveriior has just appointed, under authority of one ot our ever increasing galaxy of paternalistic laws, a state commission on recreation, having as its purposo "tho giving of advieo and assistance in lvriv ationnl projects and physical education." Anybody planning a croquet game this coming summer eaii doubtless obtain tho commission's advice and assistance, if application is made through proper channelK and on' tho right kind of a printed form.

Kather are we inclined to discuss the matter from the stand point of the broad principle involved; and looking at it from that view point we are convinced that the law should be uphelf. As a matter of justice, the truck and bus operators should, pay for the use of the Btate's highways in propor tion to the amount of wear and tear they giro them. Otherwise the indus try is a subsidized one, toward the upkeep of which every citizen is pay ing whether he gets any advantage from it or not. This matter of subsidy ha", also, another side, in that it gives to the truck and bus operator an un due advantage over the railroads. We require the railroads to pay their proportionate share toward building the grade of these highwaya and of keeping the highwaya in repair, in spite of the fact that these highways are arteries ot commerce which are highly competitive. Iiy giving the stages and trucks this subsidy, we are creating unfair competition for the railroads. The automotive transportation or ganization claims that the establish. mcnt of rates which will require them to pay for their use of the highwsys will put them out of business. Clear ly, if this be true, the quicker we know it the better it will be for the Btate. Hut we will not know it until the rates are made effective and the law given a thorough trial. Foolish Talk.' .(Salem Statesman) There is a whole lot'of talk about stool pigeons and searching houses without warrants, etc. The wonder is that officers of the law have the heart to do anything. Feoplo demand rigid enforcement of the law and the moment it is started .they begin to criticize the officers for being over zealous. A man in uniform can not buy liquor in Salem. Ho must depend upon some one to do it for him. We do not have enough officera to have them slip up behind the offenders and catch them in tho act except on the rarest' occasions. Somebody must peach, somebody must at least give the officers a tip. We hsve little pa tience with those who ore so free in demanding law enforcement and then as soon as they get it criticise the methods by which it is obtained. That is no way to mnke a town clean, no way to stand by tho officers. .

Recent Aotlon Apjalnst La Follette Group Gives Rise to Dis cussion of Question at Capitol By CHARLES P. STEWART (NEA Service Writer) VUASH1NGTON, April 4. What makes a republican and what makes a domocrat? ThiB question is being asked, down at the capitol, even by a good many of the republican senators who voted Senators La hollette, Brookbart, Frazier and Ladd out ot their ranks, on the grouod that they were repub licans no longer. l.a Folletto, Brookbart, Frazier and Ladd soy they're republicans, if that counts for anything. Senators Borah, Norris, Capper and others who are recognized as. republicans corroborate them. They were elected on tire republican ticket. And, still more peculiar, in order to throw them out of the party, the republican "reg ulars" who wanted to throw them out hod to get democratic help. They couldn't have done it otherwise. Tho question came up in connec tion with a vote on confirmation of senate committee appointments ) for the current ncsslon. As republicans if that was whst they were La Follette, Brookbart, Frazier and Ktcld were entitled, by precedent, to certoin assignments, in order of seniority, of which La Fol lette In particular has plenty of, bo ing one of 1 lie oldest members of the upper house. The republican "regulars." how ever, bad decided that the quartet had lost their republican standing. Ac cordingly they were treated like mem bers of a new minority party junior to everybody else. , But when It came to a confirmation In New York By JAMES W. PEAN I JEW YOUK, April 4. "What are mow uigm emus on iroaway( queries Elmer Hocssncr of Cleveland nnd California. "Are they cluba, or are they cabarets?" Elmer, my hoy, they are called cluba because they are the places you go to get clubbed. Ine clubbing is done when the waiter hands you the sad news m you go .out. Sometimes you have uuotigh loft for car fare, or maybe you'd prefer cyanide. Thoy are called clubs only for tone. You need no Introduction nor initia tion.

Of course, none of these night clubs sells liquor. Hut they sell "apple chnmpngne" at $10 a bottle.

Them Manipulatin' Blues of this slate, rt transpired that so many republican senntors wouldn't vote for it that it couldn't be adopted that is to say, it couldn't have been adopted if the democrats had voted against it, too. The democrats didn't, however. The assignanehts they had been given suited them, so they voted for it. ' Thus the republican "regulars" dis ciplined the republican "insurgents" with tho help of democratic votes. The fact is, as is generally, though not audibly recognized at the capitol, a republican and a democratic "regu lor" or a republican and a democratic "insurgent" are a good deal more like one another than are a republican or a democratic "regular" and "insur gent." Tho issue of La,Follette's, Bronk htirt'B, Frnzicr's nnd Ladd's republi can party standing was raised and thero wasn't anything to prove it by either way. The "regulnra" pf both pnrties were in a majoity and decided arbitrarily. The injury tho expelled quartet suf fers, if any, is mainly to their pride. They still have their votes. They still con sny what they please. Their hands may be even rather freer than thoy were. Their influence will pcr hnps he increased. As martyrs to their convictions, it is quite likely they will b strengthened in their home states. They will lose in patronage, of course. Their recommendations of ap pointments are not apt to have much weight. But this would have been the csicjln any event. there and look at all the famous movie stars ns they come In. Then you'll begin to wonder why they call them stars, for they don't twinkle. Over in the corner is a heavy sugar doddy whose corns hurt trying to be funny for a aweet-fneed gold digger whone seuso of humor makes her hand itch. In the corner Is a drunken film flapper and a drunken film sheik mimdlin and muddled in an attempt to find a little reality in life. Across the hall is the society gang, young empty-beads who know how to spend their fathers' money, or their fathers trying to learn to spend their own money. Thnt's just part of the picture, El mer. A night club is jnut like a caba ret in Cleveland or California, only the wine flows free-er and the cover charge is higher. As the World Wags j U.v FRANK FAY EPDY "piIE VISITING TKACIIKU in Eu gene and elsewhere attempts the work of correcting some of the de fects of our pi.blic school system and nart'cularly one detract, namely the neg ret of individual problems. Our public schools are over-crowded ererywhere. We spend immense sums for education but are ever a lap be hind the pressing needs of our schools. ltightly or wrongly we hsve systeniktued our schools and educated several generations of teachers into the traditions and the distinctive re quirements of this miahtv svetem un- .til everything is prescribed and stan dardised. For the average child from the average American home this sys tem works out fairly well and un doubtedly it I, about tha only way to meet the complicated problems in volved in educating t ie children of America economically. In rtiis way we get the Isrgest and most tangible re sults at the least eipenditure of money. ... THK It EST TKACIIEItS never quite snccinnb to the system. Each of their over numerous pupils is ap proached and taught as an individual. Personalities are considered nod pe culiarities of disposition are consid ered. Mut to do this becomes iticreas innly difficult in the face of the in sclent demands of the system and requires unusual mental and spiritual endowments in (he teacher. I'Xrsr.VI. riUMHtKN. whether ab normal. bright or abnormally dull, whether congenitially pcutlair or vic tims of unfortunate home surround ings have not fured very well in our staudardired a'nd crowded puM-t schools. It has become increasingly evident that while we have paid Paul of they-"public schools we have robbed l'eter" of the probation courts. The wrong kind of homes aDd tho inade quacy of the schools have filled the hours of kiudly officials who deal with delinquent children with tragic problems. THE EXPERIMENT of putting t ruined teachers on the job of dealing with these immature personalities tending toward ruin and misfortune hns been tried with considerable de gree of success in" numerous cities. In New York City and Boston the plan has been used now for ten years. It ia the business of the visiting teacher to take charge of children who are evidently misfits in the schools and find out just what each particular child needs in the way of special trnini: change of environ ment or whui .nt. The experiment seems to he justified by results, al though everywhere it has been tried out, the cases were over numerous and the visiting teachers too few. At least it helps. THE COMMONWEALTH FIJND is a great endowment, similar to the Rockefeller Foundation. It hns en gaged in the promotion of activities for tho prevention of delinquency, a mong which is the training school for visiting teachers and the suste nance of visiting teachers in selected localities.' From this fund comes two thirds of the salary of a visiting teacher in such 'a city for the first three years. IN EUiiENE the first year's work of Miss Ellwell, visiting teacher, is just drawing to a close. Quite to the surprise of many of us who regarded the experiment favorably, the school board recently passed a resolution to; terminate the contract of our visiting teacher with the present year. This action was taken, according to the report of the meeting, on the ground of economy. The need for economy in the administration of the public schools of Eugene is very well known to all of ui. Our present school board ia entitled to consideration from every citizen. They have assumed, in the in terest of the public, a difficult and thankless task. Let this be not con strued ns being in any way a criti cism of their motives. THE SUM involved is so small bow ever, it would seem to me that some means, by public subscription per haps, might be devised to raise tho $'..'10 which I understand is all the visiting teacher drnws from the school revenues of the city. The university pays half of the eight hundred dol lars raised locally, which leaves four hundred dollars for the school board to raise. 3ut Miss Ellwell is listed as a three-guarter time, teacher and draws from the state funds as such $HK, w jich leaves the modest sum of $210 to be let in order to retain her services as a visiting teacher. Surely, we ought to find some means of rais ing that amount. I Tom Sims Says j rXE thing to remember while driv ing an auto is some other driver msy be as crazy as you are. ...

Nobodv knows but the experiences of the electric car and then of the automobile give some nines. The electric car began the, sub urbanization of American dties. It relieved or abolished Blums, increased land values and rents at the business center and in the outskirts and de creased them in the intermediate walking distance zone. Then cunie the automobile, widened we siack-wuter zone, moved the sub urbs still further out made park boulevards of country roads, uni versalized the vacation habit, . do ruralized the villages, end extinguish ed the "hick" as a human species. It built skyscrapers and further raised valuea in the business district, but now, by traffic congestion, threatens to scatter them over many centers. ( Now comes a new vehicle, which abolishes distance entirely. A hun dred miles, on its wings, are as a few blocks on foot. So far, we have merely been making airplanes better. Now we are about to make them common. If that does not work an even greater revolution in the structure of cities nnd in the conditions of life than its two predecessors did, then tB"e les sons of the past have no meaning. Disarmament Plan To be Considered By Dutch Chamber THE HAGUE, April 4. OP) A project for disarmament, to be op erative aa.from January 1, 1026, has been introduced in the Dutch cham ber by the Social Democratic party. Its main provisiens are to cut down the standing army from 327,000 men in the active force and .organis ed reserves to a "security" force of 25,000 and to reduce- the navy to about a dozen gunrdsbips and as ninny seaplanes. The anual cost is com puted at some 17.500.000 florins, coinpored with 100.000,000 florins al located for defense purposes in the 1023 budget. The Bcherae is based upon the Dan ish disarmament plan, which ia close ly followed as far as the navy is concerned, while allowance is made for a greater land' force owing to Holland's longer land frontiers. The proposal is accompanied by a lengthy memorial declaring that ow ing to modern war methods, Holland, like other small stntea, is confronted with the impossibility of defending her territory adequately against ag gression by powerful foreign nations, or maintaining neutrality by force of arms alone. Either contingentcy may have to be faced, the promoters sny, owing to the prevalence of inter national hatred, the desire for re venge on the part of the vanquished, and the fenr of revenge on the part of the victors In the world war.
