ROOSEVELTS WESTERN PYRAMID POLICY
Since his nom ination Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt
has announced ii he is elected he will put a million men to
work planting trees on western logged off lands. This is
his method of euding unemployment. On the heels of this
announcem ent comes Governor Meier and lumbermen ap­
pealing to congress to let the lumber industry organise to
curb production on the grounds that a great natural re ­

STRANGER THAN FICTION
Was there ever such a complicated, unsolved m ystery
plot outside of the pages of a detective novel than the Lind­
bergh tragedy and its ram ifications have developed into?
1 he kidnapping itself was sufficiently horrifying. The
discovery weeks later that the little boy had been ruthlessly
murdered was one of the most gruesom e shocks the Anteri-
can people have ever received. The subsequent disclosures
of attem pts to profit from the grief of the agonized parents
m ake one wonder w hether there is any such thing as honor
and decency left in the world. The total failure of Federal,
state and local authorities to get any tangible evidence of
the identity of the crim inals is alm ost beyond belief. Then
the suicide of the servant girl in the Morrow household, who
took poison rath er than face another inquiry by the police,
adds ad'll another touch of m ysterv and tragedv to the whole
affair.
When the whole tru th is known, if it ever becomes
known, the plain, unadulterated, straightforw ard story of
the Lindberg affair will take its place with classics of detec­
tive fiction.

While we are wriggling around trying to raise our
automobile license fees we might also take into considera­
tion under the governm ent tax laws just passed to balance
the budget Oregon m otorists and truckm en are expected to
contribute about three million dollars a year to the federal
governm ent for gas tax, exc ise and accessory tax. Surely we
are on the way to kill the goose that has been laying
the golden eggs.

Figures published by the Bureau of Foreign and Domes­

was given as $2,677, a decline of $200 in two years. Califor­

/ DOCTOR
JOHN JOSEPH GAINES AtO
WHY MEN DIE
Among the men whose friendship I enjoyed was the late
C. W. Barron, owner of the Wall Street Journal.
One day in Boston I received a message th at he was
sick In New York ar.d wished to see me before he died.
I hurried home by the fastest train, but when I reached
his hotel I discovered th a t he had given up all idea of dying.
He was in bed, but he was telephoning, dictating, receiving
visitors, and having a glorious time.
He had been close enough to eternity, however, so th at
the experience left a deep impression. When his secretary
went out of the room, we talked about Death.
He told me two stories. The first was about a man who
accum ulated a large fortune, built a house on Fifth Ave­
nue, put his feet on the window sill, and said: “Now I am
going to enjoy myself.” But he was like a watch spring
which has been wound up tight for a long time, and being
suddenly released, snaps in pieces. After only a few months
of idleness he died.
The second story had been told to Barron by a noted
surgeon. A woman, taken to the hospital for a slight oper­
ation, died almost before the anesthetic was applied. The
surgeon could not understand it. On looking into her his­
tory, he discovered that from the m inute the operation was
decided upon she had begun to prepare for the worst. She
had made her will, given away her jewels, and divided her
personal property.
The surgeon said: “T hat taught me a lesson. I shall
never again operate until 1 find out what preparations the
patient has made. If any person cares so little about hold­
ing on to life th at he m akes all preparations to let go, then
some other surgeon can have the job.”
Barron said th at by the degree of their courage and
faith men them selves determ ine how long they will live.
I believe th at is tru e—th at those live who want to live'
that when interest ceases, the heart stops. Montesquieu re­
m arked that “the love to study is alm ost the sole passion
th a t is eternal in us; all the others fall as this miserable m a­
chine which sustains them falls more and more Into decay.”
None oi us t an escape the process of decay, but there
are many things 1 want to learn, so many places I want to
see, that I hope to fool the old heart and kidneys for quite a
while. And so, 1 tru st, will you.
“Well, not to-day or to-morrow,”
he said whimsically. "I only thought
that before Mrs. dadwyn comes back

“Supposing she never comes back?”
“We won't suppose anything so un-
lAdy. rind be&tdes, I must sec that

l e t you oof of my sight."
then I hope it wroee gets better,”
Diana said.
Dennis had come down for one last
visit before Diana returned to London.
He was fall of plans for their future
but Lhana found herself cold to ail of
them. His caresses faded to thrill her
as they had before her illness.
Finally Dennis had flung away from
her and gone back to London. His
sa rrv departure had faded to stir her,
although it left her with the feeling
her world was falling away from her.
She wondered if her love for him
had died. And the thought, strangely,
carried with it no regret
And then suddenly came the revela-
-tdon that it w as Donald she loved, mad­
deningly, distractingly. She knew then
xhe could never be happy with any
other man.
, “To-morrow,” Diana said to ber-
■elf, "to-morrow I am going to
London."
, She was glad because it was
Rathbone whom she loved: a man
surely worthy of the best life could
give him, and in some strange way
'that gladness overweighed
the
knowledge that, even supposing he
cared lor her in return, he would
never tell her so. But she could not
believe that he cared— why should
he? There were so many women in
the world more deserving of happi­
ness than she—noble, unselfish wo­
men—not just selfish, spoilt—use­
less. Then she was conscious of a
great fear; fear because all her life
»he would have to do without him;
that would be hardest of all to
bear.
When morning came she found
that out of the mass of confused
thought only one fact had strug­
gled she must keep her pride what­
ever happened. Nobody must ever
know, nobody must ever dream that
she had loved him and her love had
not been returned
I “I may as well go away with
Dennis, or anybody else who wants
me," she told herself recklessly, as
she watched the creeping daylight.
“I can't ever have the man I want,
so nothing matters."
CHAPTER XV
Diana made a quick trip up to
London to do some shopping. She
had lunch with Dennis, who told
her Linda was going to Paris and
begged her to run away with him.
