LINN COUNTY. OREGON, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 13,
NO MOKE UAKPSBURGS
Nations seem to learn surprisingly little from history,
even when it is their own history. Hungary, after all she
has suffered from monarchy, has voted for a return of mon
archie rule. And for a monarch she wants another Haps
burg!
Ordinarily it would hardly be considered anybody else's
business what kind of ruler Hungary might have. But it
is difficult in this case. The war started by the Hapsburgs,
which in origin and character was quite in keeping with the
Hapsburg history and traditions, has led to a stern resolve
on the part of the dominant powers that never again, will that
unprincipled dynasty be tolerated.
Europe is fed up on Hapsburgs. The Allies have there
fore served notice on Hungary that "such a restoration of a
dynaty which to its subjects represented a system of coercion
and domination in Alliance with Germany over other races
would not be consistent either with the principles for which
this war has been fought or with the result of the liberation
of subject peoples which has been achieved, and that the
choice of a Hapsburg would be at variance with the peace
settlement, and can be neither recognized nor tolerated."
Europe is fed up on Hohenzollerns, too, and any at
tempt to set any of that brood on any throne will call forth
a similar prohibition.
This incident, however, shows that the curse is seated
deeper than most people have thought. The evil is not eradi
cated when the autocrates are removed. Like Aesop's frogs,
the foolish people may still clamor for a king, and court their
own destruction. The monarchy idea is strong yet through
out Central Europe. There is still too much Hapsburg in
Hungary and Austria, and too much Hohenzollern in Ger
many. Before the world is really safe, the people them
selves must be democratized. That is a slower process than
kicking kings off-their thrones.

INTERNATIONALIZED WATERWAYS
u
The League of Nations, though awaiting participation
of the United States for entrance into its full sphere of ac
tion, is already operating in several important respects. One
of them is the control of the internationalized navagable
rivers of Europe.
The Scheldt just now affords a good example of what is
to be expected along this line. Belgium and Holland, after
decades of disagreement, hase -finally adjusted their rival
claims to that stream. Holland, holding both sides of its
mouth, is no longer to dominate it as she did in the war, to
the great embarrassment of Belgium, whose seaport, Ant
werp, could be reached from the sea only through neutral
territory. There is to be henceforth joint control of the
Scheldt by the two countries. 1 hey are to co-operate in a
new system of auxiliary canals, and questions of dispute are
to be referred by them to the League of Nations.
The much more important streams, the Rhine and Dan
ube, through which the heart of Europe is reached by sea
borne commerce and wants of a dozen interior nations are
supplied, will be developed and controlled in the same en
lightened way.

Mack Truck
Service Creed
We believe in satisfying all owners
of Mack trucks.
We believe they can best be satisfied
through a fair, equitable service
policy.
We believe that service on the part
of a motor truck representative
consists in supplying what an
owner needs when he needs it
and at a fair charge.
We believe we have perfected a me
chanical organization that is un
excelled in truck repair and ad
justment. We believe we have the most com
plete stock of truck parts on the
Pacific Coast in fact, we could
build any present model of Mack
truck right out of our stock de
partment. We believe such a service policy is
warranted by the returns owners
get from using Mack trucks.
We believe the Mack truck to be
without a peer and that just as
Performance Counts with Mack
trucks, Service Counts wth
