Comment

Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
AMUEL INSULL, termer utilities
magnate, la now a fugitive from
justice, charged with embezzlement
and larceny. The business structure
that he reared with other people's
money has crashed.
So ends another chapter In high
finance.
rSULL was a product of the times.
In the big boom years between
1923 and 1939, when everybody was
trying to get rich without work and
many were succeeding, he found
t money easy to get. It almost seem
ed to grow on trees.
People didn't care much what they
bought. All they were Interested In
was what they could sell It for. And
sellers were Interested only In the
money they got. They didn't care
what they passed on to the buyer.
It waa In conditions such ss these
that the Insull properties arose. With
the clearness that ls characteristic of
hindsight, we csn see now that they
were foredoomed to fall. '
B
ECAUSE of the failure of the In
sull utilities, thousands of peo
ple have lost their Invested savings,
which ls a great pity. Still, they
might have lost them anyway, for
few of the investments made In that
frenzied time turned out to be worth
The real pity lies In the loss of
confidence In business leadership that
has followed the unprincipled opera
tions of men such as Insull.
It ls going to take a long time to
build up the confidence they destroy
ed.
npHERE have been many failures In
this country in the past three
years. But don't overlook the fact
that In this' period of stress and
trouble the really sound business in
stitutions of the country have sur
vived. They have survived because
they were built upon honest founda
tions. These hard years since 1929 have
taught us the value of wise conserva
tism and plain business honesty.
That lesson Is going to be worth a
lot to us In the years ot saner pros
perity that will follow the present
depression.
NSUM,, Incidentally, paid himself
a salary of $500,000 a year
which, of course, came out of the
pockets of his stockholders and the
earnings of his employees.
In the years of saner prosperity
that will follow the present depres
sion, Just how many men are going
to pay themselves a salary of a half
million dollars a year and be WORTH
IT?
pERHAPS you csn answer that
question with complete smut-.
ance as to the accuracy of your an
swer. This writer can't.
But this writer has an Idea, which
ls becoming rather firmly fined, that
the day of enormous Individual sal
aries, such at that paid to Insull, is
drawing to a close.
In the future, there ls going to be
more Insistence on better returns to
the average man and less Insistence
on exceedingly large salaries or pro
fits by a few Individuals.
If that Is true, It is a healthy trend.
tjob BUTLER, member of congress
from the second congressional
district of Oregon, which includes all
of Eastern Oregon, said yesterday to
the writer of this column:
"My district is an Interesting one.
It Includes IS counties and has a
total area of 65,000 SQUARE MILES."
There are great open spaces In this
country, aren't there?
"THIS great territory,"
man Butler added,
Congress
es closely
concerned with reclamation. It con
tains Oregon's only national park.
It la Interested In Indian reservations
and the problems that go with them.
It has natlonsl forests and other ;
public lands. And grazing rights are
Important to It. j
"All of these activities have direct
contscta with the federal government.
That means that she congresaman
from the Eastern Oregon district has

SHOVED OFF CLIFF
SEATTLE. Oct. 13. (AP) A man
facing death with a broken back.
Frank Simpson, today accused another
hunter of having deliberately pushed
him over a 80-foot cliff in the Qreen
River district a week ago, and on
the basis of his description of the
alleged assailant, authorities began
a widespread search for him.
Aroused only to bring the accusa
tion when a physician at the Auburn
hospital where he was taken told him
he could not recover, Simpson sum
moned his wife to tell her and then
gave an account of the affray to po
lice. While hunting on the Green river
near Black Diamond on the morn
ing of the 8th, Simpson said, be saw
a bear rambling along below him and
he fired twice at the beast, missing
both times. In a few moments an
other hunter appeared and berated
him for missing, Simpson went on to
say, and in a quarrel and ensuing
struggle he was pushed over the cun.
"I landed wtth a crash," he said,
"and knew I was badly hurt. I lay
there more than four hours before
help came, because I couldn't budge
an Inch
Finally, three 'men appeared and
carried him to a car, taking him to
an Auburn hospital. His Injury was
reported as accidental, and not until
Dr. Owen Taylor told him yesterday
that he would not live, did Simpson
reveal the other version of the acci
dent.
