PROGRESSIVE
'"PHE Salem Capital-Journal calls' attention." to tho
A usurpation by tho
the legislature. J lie board was designed to make, woika
hl(s the, law forbidding the creation of a deficiency in oper
ation of the state's business, in case conditions a,rose mak
ing it impossible to live within the limits of the legislative
appropriations. Thus Avhen the prison expenses exceed
the allotcd revenue, the board meets to authorize the ex
penditure necessary to tide over the institution until the
legislature again meets.
Not content with fulfilling the purposes for which it
was created, the emergency board has taken upon itself the
enaction of legislative functions, such as the creation of a
state police. Ostensibly the state police were authorized
as a war emergency measure, to provide guards for ship
yards and war industries.
Commenting upon the emergency board's action, the
Capital Journal remarks:
"Tho creation of the state police was a pretty long stretch of the
emergensy business. There was no doficinocy of any kind, no appro
priation exhausted, no Institution short of funds, nothing. about which
tho emergency board could act legally any more than it could have de
clared tho state needed a new prison and so ordered the raising of the
money for that purpose. It was legislation pure and simple, and noth
ing else. It was beyond tho wildest Imagining of the author of the bill
or those who voted for It. If the emergensy board can create such a
body as the State police, lawfully, then it can do any other legislation.
It might possibly be a better way of making and unmaking our laws
tliim by having a legislature for the purpose, but the trouble with
it Is thut so far there Is nothing legalizing Its acts. ' It is
to bo permitted to do this kuid of 'emergency' business, It
will be a power abovo tho leglslauro, for If tho leg!slature"'refused
to puss a bill, for Instance ono creating a Btuto police, all that would
bo required would bo the adjournment of the legislature, the calling of
tho emergency board and the 'passing of a bill' by tho emergency board
that make that a law which the legislature refused so to make."
The emergency board created the state police as a war
measure, to aid in the winning of the war by protecting
war industries from being interfered with bv German
agents or sympathizers. If it
Witliycombe lias gout! it one
police from the purpose for which it was created and using
it as a weapon to enforce civil laws to centralize police
powers in 1 lie hands of tho executive, usurping powers for
the stale that belong to the constituted local authority.
Under the governor's orders, 1 lie state police is being util
ized to hunt escaped convicts and to enforco the prohibi
tion law neither of which can be construed as war meas
ures even by our "war governor."
J t the emergency hoard can

What a progressive game of autocracy this legislative
functioning is. The legislature swells up bigger than the
people that elected it. The emergency board becomes big

grows bigger than the emergency board.

story of his capture by a German sub

lie had killed two sentries and stolen

"the submarine was submerged, and
only 11 of the 50 civilians on her
deck managed to reach a life raft. I
was kept a prisoner on the craft with
out food or drink tor GO hours during
which time the Germans tried to
force me to give them information
by winding wire about my body and
tightening It.
"I was taken to Ostend as a pris
oner and for 72 days I was held
there. During this time I became
acquainted with two English officers
and four American soldiers, who were
taken In tlie first drive. On the 22nd
of February we made our escape in
German uniforms. I stole some plans
from one of the German officers who
was sleeping after a carouse. Later
I turned those papers, which were
tho plans of the harbors of Ostend and
i Zeobrugge, over to tlie naval author
ities, and 11 days later the great raid
was made.
"One of the English officers had
cut a hole thru the barb wire entan
