Comment
on the
Day's News
BY FRANK JENKINS
THESE words are written at Eu
gene, where the Oregon press con.
lerence Is In session. Newspaper men.
both dally and weekly, are here from
all over Oregon, dscussng mutual
problems and exchanging experiences.
That Is a habit modern business
men have formed and. whatever his
predecessors may have been, the news
paper man of today Is a business man.
He has to be. The newspaper of to
day, which is immensely better than
the newspaper of any preceding per
iod, giving more to Its rcadera than
newspapers ever gave before, must be
" directed by business bralna If It Is
to survive.
HERB is a sidelight that might be
of Interest:
Attendance at this years conference
Sb about equal to previous years. At
least as many newspapers are repre
sented aa at any time in the past,
but there are aomewhat fewer indi
viduals. Newspaper men, lilce other people,
are working harder this year, with
smaller staffs. Not so many people
can get away at once.
WHAT la the main topic for dis
cussion? Why ask' that? It la the depression,
of course." The thread of It runs
through all the discussions.
What la being done about It. How
long will It last? Are the signs hope
Mi or otherwise? ., . .
These are the questions that are
being asked.
TV08" PRICE, of Crater Lake, tells
a good one along that line.
4 He was coming down from the
north a few days ago, atopplng along
at the various hotels, talking to the
proprietors ss men In business will
Evidently he waa getting the same
story all along the line. At any rate,
his small daughter remarked at
Granta Pass: "Well, lets go on to
Medford and see what the depression
is doing to the hotels there."
THIS writer has 'an Idea that If peo
ple talked less about the depres
sion and spent more time attending
to the business that la to be had, ac
cepting things as they are and going
ahead with them to the best of their
ability, we should all be better off.
WALTER MAT, 'of the Oregonlan,
talks on "Prespects and Strate
gic, in the Business Field.' By that,
he means what business men may ex
pect, and how they ought to go after
It.
He admits that things are pretty
bad, but polnta out that they might
really be worse.
IN the last three years, for example,
he tells his hearers, B400 banks
have closed their doors In this coun
try. But listen to this:
These 640O closed banks, frightful
aa their total Is, have affected only
nine tenths-of ONE PER CENT of H
the bank deposits In the United
States.
Put In that way. It doesn't sound
to bsd, does It?
AND here Is something elsge:
In spite of unemployment, with
people living up their savings, sav
y mgs deposits In this country sre now
at their peak that Is to say. they are
larger than ever before.
And there are MORE savings de
posltors than at any time In the pant.
SAVINGS deposits' of course, are at
their peak, because people are
piling their money and waiting. In
stead of ualng It But at least the
money will be there when people get
their coursge back and again start
doing business.
THERE is much talk of the ma
chine age taking every body. Job
away. But Mr. May quoted to his
hearers these significant figures:
Ii; 1900, there were 300 Industrial
workers out of each thoussnd of pop
ulation. In 1930, there were 368.
That sounds as It the machine were
really CREATING JOBS, instead of
taking them away.

20TH AMENDMENT
TO
OF U. S.
Missouri Gains Distinction
As 36th and Last Needed
State to Approve Change
In Congressional Dates.
By 'James Cope
WASHINGTON, Jan. 23. (AP) The
twentieth ' amendment, eliminating
defeated legislators from participation
in the government henceforth and
hastening inauguration of president
and meeting time of each new con
gress, became today a part of the con
stitution of the United States.
Submitted to the states by congress
on March 3 of last year. It was rati
fied In near record time, the state of
Missouri winning the distinction of
being the thirty-sixth and last needed
state to approve this modernizing
legislation.
Effective Oct. 15.
The amendment will become opera
tive October 15 next.
After that each 'regular session of
congress will begin on .January 3,
every year, with no fixed adjourn
ment date, and each new president
will be inaugurated January 20.
Had it been In force now, Franklin
D. Roosevelt would have been presi
dent since last Friday. The new,
overwhelmingly democratic congress
would have been In session since Jan
uary 3, instead of the filibuster rid
den, and nigh helpless present short
session which must adjourn March 4
and can not possibly dispose of its
big tasks In that time. . .
The ratification waa a victory
climaxing ten years of put lent effort
for the veteran independent Senator
George Noirls of Nebraska. He hailed
the outcome today with the state
ment: Will Halt Filibustering
"The enactment of this amendment
is a. great step toward placing the
control of our government in the
hands of the chosen representatives
of the American people."
He expressed confidence too that It
will do away with filibustering such
as has paralyzed the senate for the
.last two weeks pointing out that with
no set adjournment dte the tactics
of delay can not finally succeed.
In ratifying as 36th Missouri had
to beat Massachusetts and Nevada,
both ready to act today. The Missouri
senate having already acted the house
managed to meet ahead of the sched
uled two o'clock convening hour so as
to overcome the time zone advantage
held by Massachusetts. ,The maneu
ver succeeded.
Honor of being first to ratify goes
to Virginia which acted last March 4,
before even a copy of the resolution
proposing the amendment had been
laid before it.

Mrs. Thornton Wiley, 47, wife of

LOSS OF LIQUOR
DEEP PUZZLE 10
F(
Report By Grand Jury That
Big Share of Confiscated
Booze Gone Is Mystery
To Ex-County Officers.
The grand Jury, William E. Grieve
of Prospect, foreman, which adjourn
ed Saturday, following the return of
a report setting forth that confis
cated liquor was missing, according
to an audit of the records, from the
liquor vault In the courthouse base
ment, will reconvene Monday, Febru
ary 6. and, it is predicted, will atay
in session until Its term expires Feb
ruary 27.
The grand Jury also reported on
the prohibition fund of the county,
and found no discrepancies; as so
often charged during the late cam
paign. -
Mystery to All.
The liquor evaporation Is somewhat
of a mystery to all concerned. For
mer Sheriff Ralph Jennings said this
morning he "had no idea where It
went, but wished he did." It was
the opinion of the former official that
the shortage occurred when the Jail
was in the city hall, and the confis
cated booze was stored In the Jail
office, and not under separate lock
and key. When the county offices
were moved to the new courthouse,
the liquor was placed In a special
vault for the purpose, and has been
under double lock since then.
The former sheriff said, "I might
be subject to some criticism when wo
were In the city hall, and handicapped
by lack of facilities."
Rumor Recalled.
One interesting angle to the mys
tery la that during the final days of
the campaign, there was a widely cir
culated rumor to the effect that
liquor had been stolen from the sher
iff's office. It was generally regarded
as "Just another campaign canard."
Friends of the former official now
hint that "somebody tried to put over
a fast one.'

Plan Notable Funeral for
Woman Who Counted Life
Failure Without Children
NEW YORK, Jen. 33. (AP) The
metropolis prepared a notable funeral
today for Miss Elizabeth Marbury,
76 years old, who considered herself
a failure.
A renowned leader in theatrical, lit
erary, political and civic life, she
nevertheless believed that any one of
millions of obscure housewives was
more successful than she.
When asked for her ideas about
success for women, she would ey:
"There is only one real success for
women; that is to marry happily and
have children and a home. In other
words, to bring forth life as Ood In
tended a woman should."
"If a woman," she would say, "has
not been blessed with such a union
as I have In mind, and with mother
hood, then It is better for her, If she
has talents and qualifications, to go
out Into the world and find some oc
cupation that will prevent her from
becoming narrow, introspective and
unhappy,"
Because Miss Marbury had talents
and went "out Into the world. there
will be a notable funeral tomorrow.
