HALL Editor and Publisher PHONE ASHI.AND 70 Subscription Rates. in Advance: One Year ............. $1 00 Six Months..... 50c —J Anna Hauptmann and Hatreds To see ourselves as others see us may not always be refreshing, but it is en lightening, to say the least. It seems that several old world news papers and German folk in our eastern centers have regarded the conviction of Hauptmann as a “miscarriage of jus tice,” and an outgrowth of racial hatred, rather than the solution of a great crime. Quite a rebuff to we proud Americans who like to think ours is the greatest, the most broad-minded nation on earth. Of course people equipped with an average amount of levity and informa tion concede that Hauptmann is too closely allied with the kidnap and mur der of the Lindbergh baby to escape cer tain and extreme penalty. Twelve men and women listened to his pleas and the evidence before they decided. They were in a better position than outsiders and critics over in Germany to pass on the case. And until some better method is devised for determining guilt or inno cence than the jury system offers, we should let a jury settle the matter. Nevertheless, there still lingers an odium from the great war which is being reflected in German colonies in this country and editorials of the press abroad. Because Hauptmann is German and manned a machine gun for his fath erland in the recent war, his countrymen feel a racial loyalty for the criminal which most certainly can never be justi fied by facts in the case. Had Haupt mann committed his crime in the old country, his present sympathizers would have been his worst critics and severest punishers. But it seems to be human nature for those back in the fatherland, and for Germans in this country who have not become Americanized in spirit, to wax sympathetic with the convicted mur derer because he is of their race, and to minimize facts upon which he was con victed. To us this appears extremely un fair and narrow. Yet few of we Amer icans are in a position to cast the first stone of condemnation. Many times, in recent years, we have eyed suspiciously the treatment accord- LEGAL NOTICES NOTICE TO CREDITORS In the County Court of the State of Oregon for Jackson County: IN THE MATTER OF THE ES TATE OF HELENE BIEDE MILBURN, DECEASED.

C. REYNOLDS Those Boston critics now agree That we’re not all we ought to be. Our western ways are their despair And we're not getting anywhere. Our habits shuck their dainty taste: Their kind advice has been a waste; Our diet needs an eastern touch. We should eat codfish balls and such; Brown bread and soggy buckwheat cakes And eels (they mean those water snakes). In Boston, they assert with glee, Their great-grandfathers sunk the tea. They venerate the old Mayflower And gab about it by the hour; And whisper underneath their breath Of witches who were burned to death. They point with pride to Pinkham's pills And Boston beans which cure all ills. They sometimes use their beans for brains And start new cults each time it rains. These critics, though opposed to crime Still eat their pie at breakfast time; The rotten BUNK they love to spill. Originates on BUNKER S hill; And people who in Boston dwell Need have no dread of future hell. ed our countrymen on foreign soil. We have been inclined to condemn policies of Russia, which were strictly Russia's own business. We have stuck a finger in every foreign pie we could find, and have expressed too freely uninformed opinions based wholly on racial likes and dislikes, and on prejudices born of color, creed and custom. To come even closer home, we find the same traits of bitterness in various geographical divisions—between cities, counties, states. Business men across the street from one another are inclined to misjudge and heap criticism freely. So when Anna Hauptmann goes from city to city with her plea for additional funds to prolong the Hauptmann trial we should not bee too hard on German folk who gather together their dollars for what they feel has been an insult to their people. With conditions reversed, Americans would behave exactly the same, and we should be graceful enough to admit we too are foolish, and draw from the occasion a preachment for our selves to follow. < Stock Market Profits A representative of the Ford Motor company, on the Ford broadcast hour, recently stated that Henry Ford never made a dollar and never lost a dollar on the stock market. By this he meant, un doubtedly, that Mr. Ford never played the market. But it has deeper significance. It means that Mr. Ford does not consider the stock market price of any stock in any sense a measure of its real value. Its only real value is the property behind it and its ability to pay dividends. It is the forgetting of this truth that has led to every panic in the history of our country. the rate of 8f/t per annum from the date of the decree herein, which judgment was enrolled and docketed in the clerk’s office of said court in said county on the 26th day of February, 1935; NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN, that, pursuant to the terms of said execuUon, I will on the 30th day of March, 1935, at 10:00 o’- clock, a.m., at the front door of the courthouse in the city of Med ford, in Jackson county, Oregon, offer for sale and will sell at pub lic auction for cash to the highest bidder, to satisfy said judgment, together with the costs of this sale, subject to redemption as pro vided by law, all of the right, title and interest that the defendants in said suit, Earl Meiling, also known as E.
