create crime rather than lessen it and sooner of later
themselves: nav the nenaltv for their over officiousness-
as has twice been the case in recent years in Jackson
. . . l''or some time the public hereabouts have been re

zeal and energv arp worthy of a better cause but whose
record shows that his star' is bisreer than he is'. Ilia- il
legal interference with train passengers And their bag
craee .became such a nuisance that the railroad adminis
tration was forced to put an end to it by -enforcing- the
law. It was our hero's habit to go through trains lifting
crips, tmeuingvthem, and yanking persons off oh suspi
cion. One such victim was kept four days in jail before a
jury turned him loose practically penniless, with an ex
pired ticket. When 'business was slacK, he resorted to tne
stimulation of law-breaking with a stool pigeon. Now a
reputable citizen lies in the hospital with a shoulder badly
shattered by a bullet. ' Joy-riders failed to halt at com
mand and the speed cop started shooting like fhey'db in
tho movies, putting four bullets through the car and one
through the driver. ' " ,
Violation of sj)eed laws or of the prohibition laws arc
not ielomeSr iso officer is justified m using ins gun, es
pecially a speed cop on a motor cycle. ' It is easy to appre
hend the supposed offenders and bring them into court in
orderly maimer.. But there seems to be an idea prevail
ing among our law enforcers that there is only one law on
the books Ahc dry law, and its violation a heinous crime
instead of a mere misdemeanor. : :'
'.''"What -might have been a tragedy has been narrowly
averted by sheer luck. The responsible parties, how
ever, are the countv officials: who appoint a mere
youth to enforce the law, and keep him in office
to ; haiu-ass and endanger t the ; public despite his
proven lack of the poise, judgment and experience neces
sary to an orderely enforcement of the law.
The spectacular speed cop should seek a job with the
film companies-his talent is wasted, inv this hum-drum
community. ''.'.."' '".'-.' ';''' ( :- 'v?'-v ';:.:v-'
JAPANESE LACK

131 ::
THE SENATE FAILURE.
EFFORTS of the Portland Oregoniaii' to support the:
league of nations and at the same time to justify
republican senators in their opposition to it, are highly
amusing. If the league is right, the senators are wrong.
If the senators are right, the league is wrong, but the
Oregonian endeavors to-wiggle out of the dilema by de
claring both the league and senatorsvright and the presi
dent wrong. The executive smned groviously by not tak
mg the senate into his confidence theretore the senate
is right in showing its petty spit by rejecting, in advance,
the league of nations. . 1 - -
The truth about the senate is that it is a senate of pig
mies. .; It is hopelessly mediocre. It originated none of the
great Avar measures all of which were suggested by the
president. Its reluctance to pass many of those vital to
the success ot the war, was only overcome attcr the presi
dent had been forced to resort to pressureand when a
clash followed, the president was usually right and the
senate usually wrong.
W hen the president went to J ranee and left the senate,
which had complained of dictation, full scope to settle the
railroad and reconstruction problems, it failed utterly. It
only scolded and wrangled. It refused even to complete
its program of routine legislation, and in a futile effort to
force the president to call an extra session during his ab
sence, made the "worst mess in the history.of the senate.'
But of course, according to the Oregonian, only the presi
dent is to blame.
"Why should the president call an extra session? There
is no leadership, republican or democratic,-in the senate,
as proved by its record, capable ot putting 'through-
constructive program. It would, as in the past, waste its
time in berating the executive and attacking tUc league
of nations and embarrassing the peace delegation play
ing percy pontics. ; its vision is too narrow and its horizon
too limited for anything but destructive criticism
