WEDNESDAY, APRIL 8.
For the McKenzie Water Bonds.
rpHIS newspaper has become convinced that the lower
J. McKenzie water bonds ought to be carried at the
election of April 15, and that the lower McKenzie water
project ought to be pushed to completion as fast as
possibly may be done. Its best advice to all citizens of
Eugene is to vote for the bonds.
For its change of opinion and of advocacy this news
paper has no apology to offer. It believed, on the basis
of information it had received, that the lower McKenzie
water project was of less importance than other projects
represented by bond proposals to be on the ballot. It
believed that the lower' McKenzie water project was one
that might, without serious, if any, impairment of the
public interest, bo put off for awhile. It believed that
lower McKenzie water, which will require filtration,
would not be very greatly superior to water from the
present source of supply, because that water, too, is
made pure by processing. It belipved that the McKenzie
water project could not be made to pay for itself through
water department revenues without a burdensome in
crease in water rates to the consumer.
New and important information in two important
particulars has led to a change in this viewpoint. It is
neither wise nor safe to continue using water from the
present source or supply any longer man is aDsoiuteiy
necessary. That water no longer comes -from wells. The
wells have become completely useless. It is not prac
ticable to restore their supply.- All of the water that
wo use now comes from the Willamette river. It is made
pure by the processing that it undergoes, but a slip at
any time in that processing would be dangerous. There
is temporary safety under the careful precautions taken,
but there is, also constant potential menace. The pres
ent safety lies in eternal vigilance and in that alone.
Estimates carefully compiled indicate that an in
creased charge to each consumer of not to exceed 25
cents a month over tho present minimum will give the
water department a revenue sufficient to meet the inter
est and sinking-fund on the proposed bond issue for the
lower McKenzio project, and eventually .to retire the
bonds, without placing the burden on the general tax
payer. These arc quite frankly tho reasons for this news
paper's, chango of opinion nndy advocacy. It was re
marked in this column not long ago that if Tho Guard
should find itself wrong on any public question, it would
not hesitate to reverso itself. It has just now dono that.
And as indicating that it is not alone in correcting its
own judgment, tho fact may bo cited that a good many
level-headed citizens who havo lived in Eugono much
longer than this writer and who nevertheless were in
accord with Tho Guard in its previous cstiinato of the
questions, havo also very recently changed their opin
ion and their advocacy and for tho same reasons.
Let those who would smilo sardonically and quote,
"Consistency, thou art a jewel," take thought also of
another quotation: "Wiso- men change their minds;
fools never."
A rocently organized judicial council will meet in
Portland in Juno to institute a movement for reform in
legal procedure in Oregon. In commenting on tho move
ment tho Medfonl Mail-Tribune says: "The oonlo be-
lievo in law enforcement. They believo in prompt jus
tice for every individual, whether 1hat individual is
rich or poor." Mayho the people, believe in it hut they
do not demand it. JF they did it would be forthcoming,

aroused to the matter, court procedure will he reformed
Until then things will go on much as they are, with
occasional pporadio outbursts against the existing order
but no action.

Paper Mill Building Overdone
(Hoseburg News-Review)
When wheat prices, cotton prices,
corn prices, wool prices or the price
of other farm products are high, it
bas in the past, been customary for
many farmers to rush wildly into the
production of one crop promising the
greatest return. The ultimate result
has always been the same, namely, a
glutted market, starvation prices, dis
couraged snd bankrupted farmer, re
marks an exchange.
The lessons learned by our agri
cultural industries have been so se
vere that, in addition to gradually ed
ucating the farmer to the value and
necessity of diversified crops in farm
ing, the general public baa In many
Instances, profited by tbe farmers
lessons. In other words, business and
industry have seen the folly of over
production in any line of output in
order to secure temporarily exorbi
tant profits. Such a policy has bank
rupted as many industries as it has
farmers.
What haa been experienced in farm
ing and various lines of manufacturing
iB now being experienced by the paper
industry. 1924 saw a new peace-time
record established for tbe production
of news print. Tbe Bankers Economic
Service says that tbe paper industry
is faced with anomalous spectacle of
stationary profits in the face of a
growing volume of business. It is
generally admitted that the domestic
industry is capable of from 30 to 60
per cent greater capacity than would
be required for even the record con
sumption of the war jeers when de
mand was abnormal.
When to this situation is added the
factor of European imports in certsin
lines, tho position of the paper man
ufacturer is very difficult. Low wages
paid in Scandinavian and German
countries enable importers to bring
in paper even below the lowest cost
mills in thin country, and results iu
reducing prices all around, or In
throwing American paper machines
and workmen out of operation and
employment. '

A 17-Word Epigram
(Christian Science .Monitor)
It would be difficult to compneo an
epigram of hut seventeen words which
wuld enntnin more good advice and
practical common senna than 'Presi
dent Coollrige's message to the senior
class of Tufts College of Boston, in
which he urged that "the aim and
duty of a college man should be to
work hard sud to behave himself.'
Many other more pretentious admoni
tions will, doubtless, be heceived by
these students, if their claea runs
to the form of the average one that
graduates from an American college,
But if they heed the full import of
this exhortation, they can largely dis
pense with the other "counsels of
perfection." This statement of the
president's was typewritten In two
lines over the words, "very truly
yours." and his signature. It is quite
evident that Mr. Coolldge believes In
the sentiment expressed so tersely by
Alexander Pope, in his Essay on Crit
Ham, when he wrote:
Words are like leaves, and where
they most abound.
Much fruit of sense beneath Is rsrely
found.

to give Christian hospitality to those
who visit our homes is a high virtue.
True hospitality does not consist in
loaded tables or brilliant entertain

companionship which is possible to
give to all who enter our homes, how-1
ever humble they may be. Let the i

JAPAN AND SOVIET NOT PLOTTING
4 :
Recent Treaty Evidence Only That Japan Wants to Eat, Says
Counsellor Moore
By HA II It Y B. HUNT
(NEA Service Writer) '
WASHINGTON, April 8.-nJapan's
recent treaty with Russia doesn't
mean that Nippon is conspiring with
the Soviet government to dominate
the l'acific. It only means that Japan
wants to cat.
At least that's the explanation
given by Frederick Moore, counsel
lor to the Japauese foreign office,
now. in Washington.
"Japanese eat about one pound of
meat per person per year," says
Moore. But they eat one pound of
fish per person per day.
"Tho big sources of Japan's fish
supply are the waters off Sakhalin
Island and the Bchring Sea. These
are Hussion waters. An understand
ing betwoen Jupan and ItiiBBia,. cover
ing the icope to be allowed Japunose
fishermen in these areas, in order
to guarantees a fish supply for J
pan, was tho compelling motive be
hind the Japanese end of the agreement.
'Friendly relations between Japan
and Itussia also means a closer rela
tionship between Japun and JMirope.
By sea, tho trip from Japan to
France and Knglnnd, for instance, is
about six weeks. By the Siberian
Railway, this is cut to ' about two
week b.
But as foreshadowing a Japanese
Russian alliance designed to dominate
ho l'acific Japan herself would bo1
the last (o wish the development of
Russia as a maritime power. Anyone ,
can sue why."
This man Moore, incidentally, Is a
unique figure iu official and diplo
matic circles.
An American by birth, citltenshlp
nd allegiance, he is at tbe same time
n official of the Japanese govern
ment In a sort of super-diplomatic
job.
His title is "counsellor to the Jap
anese foreign office." He graduated
into his job after a score of years as
Tho 79-ycnr-old mayor of Aberdeen, who wns elected
last November because he wan strong for law enforce
ment, has been forced to resign. In furtherance of his
efforts at law enforcement, it appears, ho shuffled up
tho police department rather too promiscuously to suit
even his own friends. Now ho can quote, as Mayor
Baker, of Portland, did recently:
You can nnd you will and you must and you wont;
You'll bo damned if you do and bo damned if you
dont.
Tho president, in an address before tho cotton
crowers, assures tho country that wo have, and aro to
Knvn further, nrosneritv. That, is fine. Now Int. ns
hopo tho business barometer will beirin to confirm the
president's view a little moro certainly than it has been
doing.
Next Sunday is to bo blossom day at Salem. Every
day is blossom day around Eutfeno jnst now. If voii
haven't dono so already, ride out in the country n little

.Moore has been giving satisfaction as
