Plans announced for straightening two curves In Aatorls-Seaelde stretch of Coast highway. The Case of Asa Keyes OUR COURTS, backed by police power, form the corner stone of our civilization. Eemove them and we sink back into barbarism. Undermine them by bribery or corruption, and we return to the jungle. We like to think of what we term civili zation a something lasting and permanent. But it isn't. It is no stronger than the courts and the police power which sub tain it. e e e ASA KKTES, as District Attorney, was the official represen tative of the courts and police power of Los Angeles coun ty. He was convicted of selling out to the forces of crime and corruption, a bribe taker, a perjurer and a crook. Ho was sentenced to from one to 14 years at San Quentin. Testerday after 14 months, he was released on parole, and will become an automobile salesman in the community which a little over a year ago, he shamelessly betrayed. As a private citizen engaged in business, he will receive that police and legal' protection, which he not only refused to allow, but for the refusal of which he received anywhere from fifty to three hundred thousand dollars. o WE HAVE never heard Mr. Keyes make any offer to restore his ill gotten gains. We have never heard him make any publio expression of regret for his betrayal. Asa has made his pi'.e. He has taken his "rap." As far as he is conoerned, and as far as the county of Los Angeles is con cerned, the incident is closed. THE situation merely shows how blind we are to the dangers which confront us in times of peace; how inadequate are our laws to make tbe punishment fit the crime. We mention "in time of peace," because had Asa Keyes done what he did in time of war he would have been immediately shot as a traitor. In the stress of war, the man who sails out to the enemy, is immediately recognized as a greater menace t his country than an "enemy army corps." But in time of .peace he is just another "crook." We utterly fail to realize that a patriotism of peace is only second in importance to a patriotism of warj that this growing orime wave represents a danger to this country from WITHIN, almost as serious, as a hostile army bent on conquest from WITHOUT. So we send out Major Andres to the firing squad and we let our Asa Keyes out of jail in 14 months 1 Wasting State Road Money SO THE shortcut "speedway" from Portland to the coust is to be immediately surveyed. And a second speedway is to be considered. v THIS decision by the state highway commission, wag appar ently reached .because Multnomah county and Portland have contributed "nearly half of tho highway funds and re ceived less than one-sixth of the benefits." So the taxpayers up there have something coming to therm Whether or not the proportion is correct, wo don't know. But for the sake of argument lot's assume it is. .. CARRYING this assumption to its logical conclusion, what do we find! Each section of the state receives new highway construction in proportion to its contribution to the highway fund. As nearly hajf of the population and more than half of the wealth of Oregon is concentrated in Portland and Multnomah, (his means that the highway commission will be building roads within Portland's immediate trading area FOR THE NEXT DECADE 1 a WHAT a farael As the one metropolis of the state, with every road leading to it, Portland benefits directly from overy'permaneut highway constructed in the state. The more comprehensive the ENTIRE state system tho better for the EN TIRE state and the better for PORTLAND. As we see it, Portland no more needs another speedway to the beaches than a dog needs five legs. It may help the beach concessions but it won't help Portland. BUT Portland DOES need broader and bettor highways from every direction, from Salem, from Eugene, from Hood River and Bend, from Prineville, La Grande, from Mcdford and Ashland, from EVERTWHERE, north, south, east and west. In fact, if Portland contributed all of the highway fund, it could do nothing more absurd than spend it all in Multnomah and leave the rest of tbe state in the dust and mud. What Portland needs and what all the state needs, is the best and most comprehensive system of highways possible FOR THE ENTIRE STATE , INSTEAD of putting the first money into another beach speedway, the' first money should be spent to finish the in completed portions of the state system and improve the chief artery of that system, the Paoifio Highway. When this is done, and not UNTIL then, should the tax payers' money be spent merely to make it possible for some Portland Week Ender to go to his coast summer home, in three and a halt hours, instead of four 1 Talks Tojfg, parents REPETITIOUS Pl.AY By Alice Judaon Feale. Thoughtful mothers often wonder what they can do io enrich and vary their ohildren's play. Almost any child or group of chil dren now and again get Into a rut, when their play Is monotonously the same day after day. The same doll Is taken out and wheeled up and down the walk. The same dramatisation of some family situation Is gone over again and again. The outdoor play apparatus Is twd only In a few stereotyped weye. It la well to bear In mind, how ever, that much repetition Is entire ly natural with very young children. and should not be regarded aa an Indication that they are not making the moat of their time. Yet, even with young children. It Is good to stimulate new kinds of play. so long aa care I taken not to force K. Here are some helps to this end: Rearrange outdoor play materials, such as the slide, tablea, chairs, boxes and saw-horses, so that they wlU sug gest new uses. Often a slight change Is sufficient to start a whole succes sion of new activities. Rearrange the nurssry toy shelves, eliminating play materials whose, pos sibilities yo- believe to be thoroughly exhausted. Put toys which have not been much used In a prominent place where they will catch the child's eye. Introduce new play material. Small chairs, a table and some dishes will cause a group of little girls who have been simply putting their babies to bed and getting them up again to work out all sorts of new Ideas along the lines In which they are already interested Flnl new playmatea. Often the In troduction of Just one new child Into a group results In an entirely differ ent type of play. Red Tape Binds Building BERLIN (AP) Building a house Is no simple mstter In bureaucratic Germany. It took a Berlin architect nine month and eight daya to secure the necessary permits to put up a building. oday By Arthur Brisbane Columbus and His Day Japan Knows When, Gandhi's Kind Heart. Ice, Water, Steam. Copyright King Feature Synd- Inc. Columbus was honored yes terday, in memory of that day in fourteen hundred and ninety two when he sailed the ocean blue, financed by then Catholic majesties, Ferdinand and Isa bella. He wasn't looking for any ''America," but expected to find his way to Cipangu, or Ja pan, and open intercourse with the grand Khan of Cathay, to whom he had a-letter from the Spanish king. No one wanted to sail on Columbus' ships, at first, not even hardened crimi nals, to whom pardon was of fered. They believed they would sail a certain distance and then fall "over the edge of the ocean." The fate of Columbus re minds you that the fate of the great is uncertain, Received with glory on his return, Columbus "rode at the king's bridle," displayed his parrot, gold, strange weapons, ana Indians that he had brought to be baptised." He saw both sides of the medal of life. . From one of his trips his two brothers and himself were brought back prisoners and manacled. He kept the Irons that he bad worn as long as he lived to remind htm "as memorials of the reward for his serv ices." Columbus, probably born In Genoa, whloh makes him an Italian, Is said ,to have been of Jewish descent. His ancestors wsre driven out of Portugal for religious reasons and compelled to adopt Christianity for safety's sake. . Whatever he was or did. he would be aurprlsed to see now the America that he discovered. Columbus Day was made Interest ing by a threat from Chiang Kai- Shek that he would declare war on Japan If the League of Nations didn't do something.- The League of Nations will talk, but probably not do any thing, whereas Japan will do some thing, and has done things already. China's danger Is bringing together the north and the south. Both may be united against Japan. Qandhl, who has kind heart, says he Is enduring the round table slow ness because "I cannot hold a black jack over England's head now while she Is tottering and gouge India's freedom out of her." England will not like that word "tottering," not called for yet. But she should appreciate Qandht'e forbearance. To have serious trouble In India would be painful. ' Not all Asiatics are like Oandhl. The Japaness, for Instance, believe that the time to go after a thing ts when you can get it. Japan Is holding a blackjack over- China's head, while China la "tottering." Sim ilarly the Irish got their Free State status from tbe British when the war made refusal difficult. Marconi, unusual dreamer, who makes reality - of dreams, expects "momentous discoveries" Including the great problem, "What Is the world made of?" There Is, Marconi bellevea, only one kind of matter, that takes different forms. The dream of the alchemist could have been made reality If they knew how to go about It. Some great philosophers worry be cause matter, the earth. Its) moun tains, our own bodies, art only a collection of atoms, made up of elec trons, particles of electricity, nothing real. Bishop Bsrkeley, two hundred years ago, declared that the world had no existence, except In men's minds. But we worry needlessly. Ice Is solid, you can skate on It at a cer tain temperature. When It la warmer and liquid you can swim la It and sail over It, SUU warmer. It becomes vapor. In whloh you can tiki a steam bath, and still hotter It will scald you to death. All this doeeTnot msan that Ice, water or steam, Is useless, or unreal, or that ws need worry about trans formations In matter. The earth Is solid enough now, bridges carry toads, cranes lift their burdens, man rules his grain of sand in the universe. Time enough to worry millions of years hence, and by that time, w shall probably be else where In the universe. George Bernard Shaw, unlike good wine, does not age well.

Might as well ask which I'd rather do or go fishing. But the lad goea on to com plain bitterly that b I s wife can't enjoy cof fee, b r e a kfaat food, sauce and .such things without simply covering It with sugar. Why she uses three or four spoonfuls of sugar to the cup of coffee, and so on up. What wlU be the result of such Indulgence? Lord knows she's welcome ta all the sugar ahe wants If It Is good for her, but that seems too much to be healthful She Is 37 and the mother of three heslthy kids. Finally, the young fella glvea us a pat on the back be reads this column every night except Sundays and holidays and gets a big kick out of It, besides a lot of moral support for his crazy Ideas about raising kids. I suspect my Iowa reader moved out there from Vermont, where they're aa tight as anywhere this side of Scotland. With eugar as low as It Is today a rnon shouldn't begrudge his wife a couple extra spoonful of It In her berries. In a general way, an active young person like that ought to take all the sugar ahe likes In or on her food or In the form of candy. Ice cream and other delectables. She can burn kit, all right, chasing those three kids around and keeping 'em In good or der and as good odor, as possible. Not to mention rustling' three square meals a day for her boy friend. Children and active young people, people who work or play hard every day, should use sugar freely If they like It or like sweet things. It Is the best of energy foods the finest fuel to put vim, vigor and vitality Into the consumer. Athletes, moun tain climbers, marathon : runners, msn who do strenuous labor, all know that sugar In any form la the very best emergency ration when one Is spent, utterly fatigued, approaching exhaustion or collapse. Sugar In tea, a lump of milk chocolate, the na tural sugar In a drink of orange Juice or tbe natural sugar In a glass , of milk, or the cane sugar In any of a score of soda fountain beverages, or a piece of candy carried In the pock et. It doesnt matter whether you de pend on soms raisins, gumdrops or a banana for your emergency ration, It tides you over -Just the same. Sedate, quiet, dignified, elderly folk ought to go easy with 'the sugar. Those of us who live by our wits and manage to shirk all honest work and dodge all active play, muse be ab stemious in the consumption of sug ar in any form. A sweet tooth Is a grave handicap for a sedentary Indi vidual It leads many a victim straight Into dlabetea. Even a thirty-five year old' youth who la much too stout must shun predicts we ahall one day erect a statue to Lenin, and adds: "Your President, who became famous by feeding devastated Europe In war, con not feed nia own people In time of peace." ' Even Mr. Shaw should know that our President Is not supposed to feed "his people." They feed themselves and will continue doing so. Mr. Shaw, rejoicing In what he calls Russia's prosperity, discovers that "God Is well pleased with Russia, while His wrath la heavy on us.'' Russia haa done wonders thus far with her plan, by working hard, tak ing little, unlike Shaw. But her people still live on black bread and bean soup, while revolutionary en thusiasm carries them along. Sundown Stqbies OUKSSKD-VP COLUMBUS By Mary Graham Bonner. Th Little Black Clock now turned tha time back to the year 1402 and It waa tha evening of October 11. They remem bered how they had watched Co lumbus as ha htd aeen a d 1 a t a n i light which made him realize that land waa neat, aid they remem bered how ha had rejoiced. And now, once again, the Little Black Clock had brought the chil- d.tn to the boat where Chrlatopher Columbus was re Jolcing because land had been aeen. But now they watched him dress ing up In his very best clothes. Some how they had not noticed that the time before, but then they had been ao busy ecelng so muoh and feeling the great great thrill that Columbus felt at the though', that land waa v near. How Columbia did bedeck himself. And Peggr quite understood. It as nice to drese up for party. It was nice to dreaa up when going out to dlnne Of supper, and what mora Im portant occasion could there be than dressing up when one was about to land after daya and days of ocean travel? They lauded and beheld people and a abor and trait and comfort after THE SWEET. all sweets In any degree of profusion. Of course everybody, even a person with diabetes, must take some sugar. But stout folk had better curb any special craving for sweets. There Is no svldence at all to sup port the ancient theory that much augar or sweet food wss bad for the teeth of a child. We know now that such food Is as good for the teeth aa It Is for the heart muscle or the muscles of ttie legs and arms. So I should advise my Iowa reader not to worry about tbe girl friend's fondness for sugar, as long as ahe doesn't get too fat to love. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Children Thrive on Cod Uver Oil Ontario reader writes: Our older boy, now 10 years, was delicate and aickiy, witn bronchial trouble and had pneumonia when a year old. with the most terrible colds every winter. Three years ago I read In your column about cod liver oil and Its high vitamin value and began giv ing It to him. It has made him heal thy and strong. Last winter be had only one slight cold, and he plays outdoors In sll kinds of weather now. We have been giving our a year old son cod Uver oil since he was 1 weeks old, and he has never required doctor or medicine since he waa born. Now you know how muoh we appreciate your teachings. (Mrs. O. J.) Answer Every baby, as explained In the Brady Baby Book (send a dime and a stamped envelope bearing your aaoress and ask for it), should re ceive a regular dally ration of cod uver oil from the- age of 1 month thruout the first year. After the age oi i year tne oaoy gets enough Vita. mln D and Vitamin A In other foods provided the diet Is right. Diathermy for Adenoids Too Is the diathermy method of extir pating tonsils, which seems to he so popular, available In the removal of adenoids? (Miss E. T.) Answer Yes, a physician skilled In the technic can as readily remove adenoids. Of course It la not suitable for young children, because they are too difficult to manage and will not give the physician the necessary co operation. . Modern Girl Speaks Her Mind. ' I am 18 years old and when I start ed reading your column three years ago you announced you had discon tinued sending a letter of Instruction and advice on sex to girls. I think that father who told you he wouldn't want bis is year old daughter to read your letter was mean. Ha dldnt know much about the questions' that puzzle girls at that age, nor what we talk about with older girls or what we learn from outside source, Surely you could say nothing In such a cir cular that would be as objectionable aa we things we pick up away from noma . . , (Miss K. s.) Answer You make me feel asham ed of my vacillation, daughter, yet tomorrow' mall may bring a letter w,hlch . wlU convince me the father waa right. Honestly. I don't know how to deal with the matter.

Freddy comes to tho Express, where ho formerly worked, and charges Peak Abbott with committing a crime "lh ioort ort of crime." Chapter 14 FIREWORKS OR LOGIC? PEAK leaned back In his chair. "Have yon been drinking?" be asked In slow wonder, "I have." Freddy nodded somber ly. "I have been drinking steadily for two weeks but not today. To day I'm in my right mind and Fm telling you that you mustn't marry Sam. Ton mustn't do It!" Automatically Peak said: "Why oot?" "For the simple reason that she doesn't give a darn about you. She's "You mustn't marry marrying you for your rotten money and nothing else." Peak half rose to his feet ''Look here, you " "No heroics, please." - Freddy tapped on the top of the desk with sis knuckles. "It you don't mind we won't have any fireworks. I didn't come here to Insult you. I came here to talk sense, and If you're wise you'll listen." "All right, Til listen." Peak sodded calmly. "You've already laid that" "What I've already said Is no tews to yon. You knew all about it when you went into this thing, and can't say I blame you for your at titude. People have married for money before, and one or two of them have gotten away with it ThiB case, however. Is different." "Why is it different?" "That's the point" Freddy sodded. "We're getting down to (acta now, and we're getting down to things that you didn't know be fore. You know that Sam isn't In love with you, but you don't know that she is in love with somebody else. Am I right?" Peak sat quite still. In the end he nodded in a detached manner. "You're right With whom is Sam In love?" "With me." Freddy lifted a warn ing hand. "Now let's not have any scene. I'm just telling yon the truth." "No scene." Peak brushed the suggestion aside impatiently. "Yon ay that Sam Is In love with you, and I suppose I can assume that rou are in love with her." "You can." Freddy nodded. "I'm a tool, I suppose, but I can't help it I love her and I want her." "I see," Peak smiled. "Well, I love her and want her, too, Munson, so that's one point on which we both think alike." They were silent for a time, look Ing at each other. Then Peak said: "Well, let's hear the story." "What story?". "Yours and Sam's. I don't kndw say of the details, remember, and It we're to get anywhere In this dis cussion, I'll have to know them." Freddy told the story. He told It briefly but with such simnle con- It dldnt mean anything to them. Only to Columbus It meant so very, very mu thai he had to dress up m honor ot the discovery -of land.

In the end Freddy shook his head. "And so you see. Abbott, if that confounded step-! brother of hers hadn't butted In,' she'd be married to me, now, and, there wouldn't be any need of alii this." '.'.. Peak nodded thoughtfully.' "But the confounded step-brother did butt In, Munson." Freddy made a gesture of despair. "That's Just what I've been trying to tell you!" Peak shrugged and was silent for o long that at last Freddy's Impa tience got the better of him. "Well," he demanded sharply, "what are you going to do?" "Do?" Peak looked up inquiringly. "What do you suggest that I do?' "Tell Sam that you know all about everything. Give her a chance to get herself out of this mess." Peak frowned. "Yotf must remem ber, Munson, that Sam got herself into what you call this mess, en tirely of her own free will." "Free will?" Freddy repeated. "She was forced into it because she needs money so badly." Peak tapped the top of his desk. "Suppose I let her go as you sug gest," he said softly. "Would her financial problems be any less seri ous than they were before?" 8am," Freddy told Peak. "Perhaps not, but at least shi wouldn't be tied to someone stM doesn't love." Peak glanced at Freddy. "Could you help her financially, Munson?' "You know I couldn't" Freddj snorted. "What's the sense to tbal remark t" "I'm Just wondering," replied Peak slowly, "what is best for Sam. Would she be happier married to you, and as poor if not poorer than ever, or would it be better If she had me, whom she might not love, but who could give her every ma terial comfort?" He nodded. "I think that there is a problem that re quires consideration." Freddy choked. "Why yon "No scene, please!" begged Peak earnestly. "I'm talking sense, and it you're wise, you'll listen." "All right" Freddy controlled himself with an effort 'Til listen." "Good. Then you can believe it or not Munson, but the fact remains that I'm thinking only ot Sam. To be frank with you, I'm not at all convinced that In the long run she'd b happier with you than with me." "All right, then," Bald Freddy fiercely, "leave me out of it alto gether! I'm willing to get ont of here and never come back, it you, in your turn, are willing to let Sam go." "If we both left her, she wouldn't have one thing or the other com fort or romance," "Then what shall we do?" Freddy Inquired sarcastically. "Shall we flip a coin to see who gets her?" "It seems to me," said Peak gently, "that we've forgotten one Important thing. We've forgotten that you and I really have no voice In the matter. Tbe decision rests entirely with Sam whether she'll have you or me. Unless I'm mis taken, she has already made that decision." Freddy was pale. "Admirable logic! I'm asking you now whether you are going to let her stick to a decision that will wreck her life." (Copyright. Freeman. Lincoln) What I Peak's anawerf Tomor row, Peak faces the situation.
