Comment
on the
Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
PRESIDENT HOOVER comes out
against constitutional prohibi
tion, proposing In It atead a system
not definitely outlined, but embody
ing these fundamentals:
1. Turning the prohibition ques
tion back to the states, so far as wet
and dry voting within each atste Is
concerned.
J. Prohibiting the saloon, even In
those states tat vote wet.
8. Guarantee by the federal gov
ernment that dry states will not be
flooded with liquor from wet states.
WHAT does It 'all mean?
Well, It means, for example,
that Oregon could vote wet, but
. COULDN'T have saloons. If It tried
to do that; the federal government
would Interfere.
And It means that If Oregon voted
wet and Idaho remained dry Oregon
"couldn't ship liquor over the line
Into Idaho. If It tried to, the feder
al government would Interfere.
fOULD such a scheme work?
You answer that question as
well as anyone else, but before giv
ing a definite yes or no answer you
probably will recall that no scheme
yet proposed for control of the liq
uor traffic has worked very satisfac
torily. The liquor business has been an
outlaw business always, and will
probably remain so for some time to
come.
SO we come to another question:
WHY does President Hoover pro
pose this modification of existing
constitutional prohibition?
Xn this writer's Judgment, and with
due deference for the President's sin
cerity and honesty of purpose, the
newer Is this: Because It Is deemed
politically expedient for him to re
cede somewhat from his previous bone
dry stand, while at the same time
not going the whole road of repeal
that Is proposed by the Democrats.
f
"tETTING elected Is the big prob
lem that faces President Hoo
ver. Getting Hoover elected is the big
problem that faces the Republican
party. It Is recognized that In this
campaign year there Is a strong re
action against constitutional prohi
bition, but It Is feared that many
people who are talking wet will vote
dry.
Some sort of compromise, there-
lore, seems to the political leaders to
be Indicated. The President's propos
al Is a compromise. It Is HOPED that
H Is a compromise that will bring
home the votes,
. That, stripping away the trimmings
and getting down to fundamentals,
appears to be the situation.
1T7ILL THIS compromise really
" BRING HOME THE VOTES?
As to that, one person Is probably
a competent to judge as another.
But It Is possible that the drys may
ay to themselves: "Hoover Is really
dry, and still stands out for some
form of federal control of the liquor
traffic" and that the wets may say:
"Aha! Hoover Is wet, after all. Bully
for him.
That, at least. Is what Is HOPED,
politics, you see. Is still politics.
JS OREGON last year, 203 persons
were killed in automobile accidents,
and 5,050 persons were Injured. Al
together, 23.628 automobile accidents
were reported.
CARELESSNESS takes ft frightful
toll in these modern days, doesnt It?
For it was carelessness, in some form
or another, that was responsible for
the greater number of these acci
dents, with their toll of Injury and
death.
T f ERE are some figures that in
Southern Oregon at least should
be found interesting. They give the
attendance, by years, at Crater Lake
etxte 1037, the year appearing In the
firs column and the attendance In
the second:
1937 . 83,354
192ft , 113.323
1929 , 128.435
1930 157.895
1931 170.284
Crater Lake, you see, has been in
creasingly popular for the past five
yeart. bringing to Southern Oregon
In 1931 a little better than twice as
many people as In 1927.

Permits held by the California Ore

The cort.mt35.on met this morning
prior to a Joint session lter in the

Shasta Cascade Wraderland assoc'a
tlon. The revocation was based on the
understanding thnt the power com

regarded as commerclaltration of the
permit. Marion Barnes of the stite

damage done to dikes and dams by
muskrats are exaggerated. He thought
that field mice are far more destruc

While wet and dry organizations work
to elect this fall members of congress
who will represent their views. At
torney General Mitchell Intends that
there shall be no relaxation in Fed
eral prohibition enforcement.
The cabinet member dispatched a
circular to departmental chiefs car
rying these orders. He said the de
partment had received suggestions
from "those who know better" that
because some changes in the prohi
bition system are under discussion
and may be adopted, the department
of Justice should relax lta efforts to
enforce the existing laws."
Mitchells memorandum adds that
a federal easing up "without sub
stitution of any lawful state control
would produce chaos and an orgy of
uncontrolled excesses. "
Meanwhile Dr. Daniel A. Poling
said in a statement that the allied
forces, prohibition groupe, had voted
to support President Hoover; the Na

commended the President's stand on
the dry law as indicative of public
"demand" for a change.
Dr. Poling said 187 of 306 national
committeemen and supporters of
allied forces had voted to endorse
President Hoover because of the be
lief that his election "will safeguard
the gains made under prohibition."
He added that the allied forces
"will conduct an aggressive campaign

crata or republicans, who are against

them and before she bought them, a
dividend came due and naturally he
clipped the coupons."'
