THE "MORE MONEY" HOAX.
THROUGH every financial depres-
1 sion, there is always the fellow
who stands forth and loudly asserts
that the way to get out of the dol
drums is to issue more money. Kick
over the gold standard, give silver
the ratio of 16 to 1, work the mints
over time to turn out silver coins
and the country will be all right,
he blatantly claims.
This fellow assumes, because
there seems to be an inadequate
supply of money in circuation, that
putting more money into circula
tion is all that is needed. And that
any money is good so long as it has
the government stamp on it.
It takes no deep reasoning to
see the fallacy of this argument, if
one will stop to think for just a
moment what money is and why it
is based on a single commodity or
substance.
History says in the early days in
Oregon beaver skins served as a
medium of exchange. The value of
all commodities was gauged by
their proportionate value to beaver
skins, and so all down through his
tory have served the different sub
stances used for money, all of
which were deemed valuable be
cause of their rarity. In most every
case the substance chosen for mon
ey was one the demand for which
was ever greater than the supply,
and the amount evenly supplied,
giving it a high intrinsic value.
Thus in the course of time did
gold come naturally to be the base
for measuring the value of all com
modities, and its intrinsic value is
what has made it valuable as mon
ey its intrinsic worth and not the
fact that it had the stamp of some
government on it.
Today, the world over, whether
a country is said to be on a gold
basis or a silver basis, gold is the
fundamental standard of value.
The silver money in the silver ba
sis countries is worth only as much
as the value of silver compared to
the value of gold.
No government can ignore this
measuring stick of value. It can
issue silver money by the carload,
but this money will still be worth
just so much as the value of silver
compared to the value of gold, and
the value of other commodities will
still be measured in relation to
gold.
If there were 16 silver dollars in
circulation, for every gold dollar in
the treasury it would be as impos
sible to purchase the same amount
of prunes with one gold dollar and
one silver dollar as it would be at
present to sell a ton of prunes and

HOW SIN BEGINS
Genesis 2:15-17; 3:1-8
Rev. Samuel D. Price, D. D.
If ever there was a love nest on
earth it should have been when Ad
am and Eve were habited in the
Garden of Eden. Certainly there
could be no triangle love affair
which woud lead to a divorce court,
One of the charming touches that
is revealed is the declaration that
God came down to walk and talk
with them "in the cool of the day."
Safeguards were placed about them
too.
Character is developed when one
has the opportunity of doing either
right or wrong but prefers to
choose the way of rectitude. We
are still free moral agents and have
the power of Indivdual choice. We
live In a world where no one can
continuously have his own way. We
are strengthened when we obey the
negatives that are for the common
good. There was just one prohibi
tion in Eden. Full freedom was
given except that there was the
fruit of one tree that had to be
avoided.
Satan was created as an angel of
light but chose to rebel against
God. Thereafter he became the
enemy of all who would stand with
the heavenly Father. The devil
sought to reach God through man
and began by casting slurs upon
the commands of the Almighty.
When we stop to argue with the
tempter we are on most dangerous
grounds. We are wise when we
actually run away from tempta
tion. Otherwise we argue against
the prohibition and fail to note that
each limitation is for our own good.
All too goon the lie of the devil was
accepted and personal sin brought
its terrible consequences. One sin
does not stand alone very long.
Soon Adam was also involved and
he was a coward when he tried to
lay the blame on Eve. We are still
and always individually responsi.
ble. That very day the dire conse
auences of sin began and they have
continued to this day. "Be sure
your sin will find you out," Num
bers 32:23.

THE REVOLT OF THE TAX
PAYERS. Autocaster Service.
PS.OM all over the country we
read and hear reports of a rising
tide of protest against the high cost
of government
National, State, County, School
and Local taxes have grown in the
past dozen years until the combined
burden is more than most taxpay
ers can bear even in normal times.
And in these times of reduced in
comes and poor business the tax
burden has become intolerable.
Congress is trying to "balance the
budget" by imposing more and
higher taxes. Doubtless there will
be some show of reducing govern
mental expenditures, but so far we
have heard very little about those.
It seems to us that should be the
first point of attack, not the last
This country got along very well for
a hundred years and more without
trying to regulate everybody s busi
ness and teach everybody how to
live. We think there are hundreds
of millions of dollars literally wast
ed every year by Federal bureaus
which never would be missed if
they were abolished entirely.
The same is true of State govern
ments and, to perhaps even a great
er degree, of most county govern
ments. It is characteristically Am
erican, and something in which we
take pride, that as a people we all
want the best of everything. We
want the best possible roads, the
best possible schools, the most mag
nificent public buildings, the finest
parks, and all that But haven't
we been trying to get these things
too fast without counting the cost
without finding out first where the
money is coming from? We think
that is the principal trouble with
the United States today.
The inevitable result of this orgy
of public spending is to stir up
widespread discontent which may
easily result in an actual revolt on
the part of taxpayers. Too much
of the tax burden is laid upon land
and its improvements, not enough
upon the individuals, groups and
enterprises directly benefitted by
specific expenditures of public
funds.
What this country needs right
now is to cut all governmental ex
penses squarely in half Federal
State, County and Local. That
might cause some temporary em
barassment, but it would be only
temporary. Relieved from half of
the tax burden, property of ail
kinds would earn more for its own
ers, capital would be freer to go in
to productive enterprises, men and
women would get their jobs back,
prosperity would return speedily.
We would like to see some real
leader arise who would adopt for
his political slogan: "Cut taxes in
half!" He could be elected to any
office to which he might aspire, in
the present temper of the Ameri
can people.
THE RAMIFICATIONS OF
CRIME.
Autocaster Service.
IT WAS an amazing story of crime
and its political ramifications
which Frank J. Loesch, president
of the Chicago Crime Commission
told a committee of the United
States Senate in a letter the other
day.
According to Mr. Loesch organ
ized gangs of criminals absolutely
control Chicago politics and draw
tribute from Chicago business. He
charged that two of Al Capone's
henchmen are in the Illinois State
Senate and another in Congress,
and that many of the labor unions
in Chicago are under control of
racketeers.
In New York the disclosures by
the Seabury investigating commit
tee have shocked all decent people,
with their revelations of graft and
corruption by public officials of all
grades and degrees.
There is no doubt that in many
other cities, and even in some small
communities, there is a partnership
between politics and crime, of a
nature which threatens the foun
dations of ur governmental and
social system.
What is needed more than any
thing else at this time is honest,
courageous men who can so stir
public opinion that the people of
thess afflicted communities will rise
in Indignation and throw out the
crooks and gangsters.
Mike Put in Classroom
To Broadcast Lectures
Something new in educational ra
dio broadcasting In this state has
been started by KOAC at Oregon
State college with the placing of a
microphone right in one of the lec
ture rooms where Dr. E. H. Moore,
professor of sociology, will deliver
a weekly lecture to his class in
general sociology. Radio listeners
tuned in at 11 o'clock each Tuesday
morning may hear this lecture ex
actly as he gives it to the students.
Arrangements have been made
for listeners to follow the course
more closely, as they may enroll for
home study and will thereupon re
ceive additional material prepared
for their guidance. Two examina
tions will be given the radio class
and certificates will be issued those
"passing," though no college credit
will be allowed.
The course will deal with general
sociological problems such as crime
and poverty, family life, recreation
and racial and economic conflicts.
AMONG YOUNG DEMOCRATS.
A former Heppner girl, Miss Myr
tle Craddick, graduate of Heppner
high school with the class of 1925,
was honored by the election to the
office of secretary of an organiza
tion of young democrats formed in
Portland recently. Leland F. Hess,
Portland attorney was elected pres
ident, and Miss Ailoen Mannix,
daughter of the late Thomas Man
nix, was named as one of the four
vice-presidents. Marshall N. Dana
candidate for the democratic nom
ination to the United States ena-
torshlp, addressed the group on
"Youth's Place in Politics." Miss
Ethel Craddick is now In Portland
with her sister, Myrtle.

There are certain kinds of food
that are considered absolutely nec
essary in maintaining health and
strength within the human body;
these should be well kept in mind,
and never neglected. The humble
egg ranks among the first and most
important.
The egg in itself, contains the
necessary food-elements to set its
own vitellus aflame with life, and
nourish the embryo chick until it
is able to walk, eat, and breathe
for itself a most wonderful pro
cess; I know of nothing in nature
more interesting. Everything need
ed for the young bird is housed
within the egg-shell, for the life
germ awakened by the gentle heat
of the mother's body. And those
needed things are elemental fac
tors in the process of growth.
How valuable the egg as a food
for humanity! An authority from
which I derive much that is prac
tical, states that every human be
ing needs one or two eggs daily.
The expectant mother certainly
should have two eggs daily; even
children should have one, at all
ages younger than puberty.
I recall a visit from a famous
Frenchman, a while after the big
war; he ate six eggs at a meal,
quite often, when he was in New
York. And, why not? The egg is
an essential food for muscle, nerve
and brain. May I admit that I my
self, often eat three eggs, properly
prepared for breakfast.
Eggs and milk in daily ration.
Add to these a full glass of orange
juice and you have a trio of values
that can't be beat! But one devil
led egg just as social dinners, or,
one hard-boiled one with lettuce,
isn't "eggs" at all. I mean two or
three soft eggs daily.
One little orange on odd morn
ings just as well do without. The
same with starvling milk; three or
four glasses of whole milk daily is
what I mean.

W.CT.U. NOTES
MARY A. NOTSON. Reporter.
The cycle of wet propaganda is
again complete, and they are once
more urging the tremendous cost
of enforcing prohibition. They weep
for the taxpayers who must pay
the taxes to meet the $11,500,000
appropriation for enforcement of
the Volstead act. They very care
fully refrain from mentioning the
fines and forfeitures paid in by the
law violators and the money de
rived from the sale of confiscated
property. But, let us consider some
other cost3. In 1931 one State, Cal
ifornia, spent between $12,000,000'
and $14,000,000 in fighting agricul
tural pests. No one questions the
reasonableness of this expenditure.
But when the Federal Government
spends less for the purpose of fight
ing the human pests of bootleggers,
rum runners and moonshiners in
48 states in an effort to protect the
most precious crop of our country,
the children, then the wets howl
about the costs. The rising gener
ation is of more value than the
crops. They constitute the most
vital resource of the nation. If the
wets oppose the appropriation for
plant quarantine, for instance, they
would be laughed out of court, but
a saving in taxes could be made
that way.
A few clays ago an account in a
newspaper published in a neigh
boring city told of the return of one
of the citizens of that city from a
trip to Europe. This citizen told
how the people of Europe laughed
at us for our prohibition laws. They
seemed to think we were weak
minded. This citizen told how he
had observed very few drunken
people in Europe. He probably
made a true report, but he may not
have gotten the whole picture with
in his vision. Over against .this
man's view place that of Lloyd
George who came over here and
made a thorough investigation. He
returned home and warned his
country that they could not hope to
compete with America in the in
dustrial world if Great Britain re
mained wet and America dry. A
letter written by Charles Henry, of
Philadelphia, tells a different story
from that told by the citizen of our
neighboring city. It reads:
"The worst thing that could hap
pen to us would be the defeat of
prohibition. I have just returned
from a six months' trip through
Europe, and everywhere found in
tense interest in our handling of

liquor. Government control is a
farce, and more speakeasies are
there and more bootleg liquor sold
all the time in every country. The
London Daily News states that ful
ly as much more liquor was sold
than the government report show
ed. It came from bootleg sources.
They consider we have wonderful
self-control and subordinate our
lustful appetites to the common
good. We would lose tremendous
world prestige if we would now
admit our appetites are too strong,
or that we are a weak-spined lot
and unable to dominate the unruly
and criminal classes."
