P) TO Dowager Duchess D La Roolietouchauld, 67, died her Monday. So was a daugh tsr of the lat Senator Mitchell of Oregon. "Who" Is Above the Law! "MOT only once BUT MANY TIMES, the Daily Newg ha praised the members of the present grand jury, aa honest, intelligent and eomcientioua citizens, determined to investigate the break-down of law and order in Jackson county, and bring thoae responsible to justice. The Daily News called on its followers to present their evi. dence of the break-down of law and order, before THIS body, because, as it declared less than three weeks ago: "Jackson county now has a grand Jury composed of citizens who desire to establish Justice and provide for the r-establlsh-mont of law and order la this community." No one questions this has, or will be, done. Undoubtedly, ALL the evidence supporting these time-honored charges of the break down of law and order, WERE put before this body of "honest, intelligent and conscientious citizens" the Dahack case, the Bates case, the newsprint case, the Ashland murder case, and all the other cases. If this was NOT done, then certainly it was solely the fault of the faithful ordered to present their evidence, who DID appear before this inquisitorial body, and had every' opportunity to do what they were told to do. o e o o ALL RIGHT. THEN what happened I " After weeks of careful investigation, after studying and sifting out all the evidence presented, this body of honest, con scientious citizens, with only one desire "to establish justice and provide for the re-establishment of law and order in this community" in short, what one might term this paper's "own grand jury" handed down three indictments AGAINST THE EDITOR OF THE DAILY NEWS, HIMSELF. Two for criminal libel. , One for criminal syndicalism. All right again. THEN what happened! . . These intelligent members of the grand jury suddenly be came "stupid," We quote the "I waa amazed not only at the ney and our circuit Judge, but I waa mora amaaed at th stupidity of th grand Jury." MORE amazed I The members of this grand jury who only a few weeks ago were so intelligent, trustworthy and conscien tious, arc'now even' MORE stupid than the two public officials, chiefly responsible for the condition of lawlessness and anarchy which now exists and that paper claims HAS for so many years existed. More than that! To secure these indictments Judge Norton and George Codding, we again quote: "Had risen above th law, had set aside the laws of this stat, had become a law unto themselves. Csn you beat It? Can you even tl lt" WE CERTAINLY CAN'T I Hera is t grand jury, made up of trustworthy and conscien tious citizens, devoted to upholding the law and establishing justice, according to the EDITOR'S OWN PUBLIC STATE MENT ; so derelict in its duty, so cowardly and spineless that it does not even PROTEST against two public officials,' putting themselves above the law, setting aside the laws of this state and beooming a law unto themselves, while they are in session. XH0 are the members of this grand juryl William Grieve ' of Prospect is ohairman; the other mombors are Mrs Hamilton Patton, G. L. Knight, Kurt Jeschke and Paul Mc Curlcy of Medford j H. 0. Butterfiold and J, M. Hughes of Ashland. These people are all pretty well known. They represent an accurate cross-section of Jackson county. Docs anyone outside of the editor of the News BELIEVE they are "stupid", BE LIEVE that if in THEIR OPINION the indictments returned against the editor of the News, were NOT justified, they would ever have voted them ; BELIEVE they would sit idly by and allow two public officials, any public officials, set them selves above the law, set aside the laws of this state, and become a law unto themselves, and not evon SAY anything about it. If there are,- then as good oitizens it is their public duty to register their protest, express this belief before this grand jury, and present their evidence to sustain this belief. 1THILE awaiting such action, just one word more. This is not the first grand jury, that has been con demned, in the same way by the editor of the Daily News. Less than a year ago, in June 1932, a grand jury was in session, and all evidence available to sustain that paper's charge of the break-down of law and order, corruption and skuldug gery in public office, was presented. The editor himself ap peared before that body. The Dahack case, the Bates case, etc, etc,, were all gone into; the same charges now made Bgninst Distriot Attorney Codding were out. And THAT grand jury like THIS grand jury, declared there was no evidence to sustain these charges and expressed their confidence in the publio officers and the law enforcement offi cials of this bounty. Who were the members of THAT grand jury t Hore they are : Joalah I, Hubbard of Butt Falls, ohairman; Irving Porter and Win. Bar bar of Ashland; Mrs. Ann K. Carley, Loo B. Wil liams, Howard A. Hill ot Medford; and Reed Charley ot Browna boro. As we recall it, every member of this grand jury.signcd the report, EXCEPT Howard A. Hill. 11THAT did the Medford News say THENf It charged that " grand jury with handing down a "whitewash"; it main tained as it does now, the members of the jury were derelict in their sworn duty, did not have the courage and the manhood to indict the lawless gang, which with its iron heel was orushing justice and upholding crime in this peace loving and law abid ing community. They were the supine tools of a wicked and unscrupulous district attorney 1 "Can you beat it!" "Can you even tie itf" WE CAN'T. AND all this is done in the name of law and order, under the V banner of crushing out those public officials, who put themselves above the law, who have become a law unto them selves 1 Now in all seriousness, for while this sort of thing used to be a joke, with talks of ropes, threats of bloodshed and pillaging of the court house it has long since ceased to be. We repeat IN ALL SERIOUSNESS who is putting him self above the law, who has become a law unto himself t Who refuses not only to accept the judgment of ANY grand jury that is called, to establish law and order in this community followers of the Newg, who were editor: stupidity of our district attor undoubtedly carefully threshed and give the long suffering people relief, but WHO declares no lawyer in the local bar association or the STATE association, can be trusted; no judge in a local court, or in ANY circuit court in this state, can be depended upon, no person in author ity, with perhaps one exception, is honest or law abiding, or earnestly desiring to make this community and this state, a safe and decent plaeo in which to live, but HIMSELF 1 We will let the right thinking and fair minded people of Jackson county answer that question. And finally, in all seriousness, WHAT are the people of this community going to do about it 1 WE have given the answer before, but we are going to give it again and again, until this intolerable situation is cleared up ONCE AND FOR ALL. , It is this : Let all right-thinking, law-abiding citizens stand up and be counted, give their active support to our public officials, our courts, our jury system, IN SHORT TO THE GOVERNMENT UNDER WHICH WE LIVE. Let them EVERY DAY, IN EVERY WAY uphold the officials of this government, when they declare that no man, rich or poor, strong or weak, old or young, who OWNS a newspaper or DOESN'T own a news paper, WHO IS IN OFFICE OR NOT IN OFFICE, can set himself up above that government, a law UNTO HIMSELF, and GET AWAY WITH IT! .

GOOD CHEER FOR Ot all the afflictions of good men and women there are two which 1 never could regard with equanimity. namely cancer of the womb which comes to so many mothers of large families and pros, tatlc obstruction, which destroys the peace, com fort and serenity of grandfathers. Both, afflictions are inscrutable unless they are rewards conferred by a malicious providence. The application of electro-surgery to th relief ot prostatic obstruction 1 not a novel Idea. Independent, progressive physicians have been de veloping th technic ot this method for ten yesrs or more. They have fi nally consolidated their guns, so to speak, and given the fruits ot their studies and experience with the newer method to the profession. In the preceding talk on this sub ject th view ot on of th leading urologist was quoted he believes the standard surgical prostatectomy la destined to become obsolete' In 00 per cent of cases; whether the condition b fibrosis, benign hypertrophy or a malignant process. Another urologist with Isrge ex perience In both the older surgical method and the newer electro-aur- glcal method,' concludes that the newer method Is effective In the ma jority ot cases ot prcstatlo obstruc tion, 73 per cent ot cases in which there was moderate enlargement be ing cured at one sitting. 37 per cent requiring more than one sitting. The new method Is surgical, or course, but It Is all don through th cyatoscop. with cautery punch or lectrotom or eleotro-coagulatton, and no external Incision. Careful foltow-up observations or patients who have undergone the new method of treatment ahowed that 70 per cent of them remained well and free from any recurrence of the old trouble for from three to ten years. Surely that compares favorably with any record the older method of pros tatectomy csn show. One of the lesdlng urologists, In the symposium on the new method, mad this characteristic remark: "It Is possible that It will sup plant perineal prostatectomy; It will probably never completely supersede suprapubic prostatec tomy . . .

How these deft operators hate to see their trade becoming obsolete! Another urologist who has hsd per haps too much publicity contented himself with asking what will be th actual mortality.

A professional man may deduct all necessary expenses incurred In the pursuit of his profession. These In clude the cost of supplies used In his practice, expenses paid In the opera tion and repairs of an automobile used In making professional calls, office rent, cost of light, water, fuel, and telephone in his office, and the hire of office assistants. Many physicians use their resi dence both as their offices and their homes. In such Instances the phy sician may. deduct as a business ex pense the rental value of the rooms occupied for office purposes If he actually paya rent, and also the cost of light and heat furnished these rooms. Also, he may deduct a por tion of the wages paid domestic serv ants whose time Is partly occupied In caring for these rooms. Member ship due tn professional societies are deductible. Physicians and dentists who keep in their waltlrgr rooms cur rent magazine and newspapers for the benefit of their oatlents may de duct this Item as a ouslness expense. The cost of professional Journals for the taxpayer's own use also Is a de ductible Item. The cost of technical books Is not deductible Item, being a capital expenditure. r but a proportionals amount for each year's depreciation of the books may be deducted. In surance premiums on office and other professional equipment may be de ducted. Automobile liability Insur ance may be deducted only when the automobile Is used wholly In pursuit of the Wuc payer's profession, and the r AMERICA'S- 10 This is the last of a series of articles In which Prof. William Fleldlns Ogburn of the University of Chicago discusses whst h considers the 10 biggest problems facing America. By WILLIAM FIELDING OGBl'RN Research Director, Prsldsnt'a Com mlttee on Recent Social Trends. (Written for the Associated Press.) Happiness never has been consid ered as a social problem. It has been the them of the philosopher and th poet, but It never ha been attacked by science. Indeed, the comment of the misguided moralists has been: "Th more you seek It th less you find it." Ther has been no platform In the Republican or Democratic party on the subject. Yet It is the one thing we sit crave. While many persons will think It highly fsnclful to discuss th ques tion of Incresslng happiness and probably will condemn snyone at tempting such a discussion ss an impractical Idealist, yet I doubt '4 anyone would be so bold as to aay the happiness of our people csnnot be Increased. INFLATION IDEA IS DISCARDED BY Party Leaders Gradually Swinging to View That Hard Budget and Hard Cash Must Be Retained By PAUL MALLON (Copyrighted by Moclur Newspaper Syndicate.) WASHINGTON, Feb. 32. Democrats at th top have com around to the view that they! wilt have to maintain a hard budget and hsrd money. ' Tou can mak a little bet on that now. Any easing that Is don will be mild snd quiet. A few weeks back they were pri vately wavering. Some conservstlvt felt that debts could not be paid with the present hard dollar. They went In search of som mild form of in flation. They have not entirely given up the idea. But they have become convinced' that a show will have to ba made for a budget balanced more strictly than In the past and money maintained at the existing standard. They will try to take care of debtors In other ways. Two developments are forcing Mr. Roosevelt more or less reluctantly to thla stsnd. Foremost Is the campaign which Is being quietly but forcefully oarrled on by the administration. Mr. Hoover and Mr. Mills have sold or oversold the country on the proposi tion, depending on the way you look at It. The budget baa not been bal anced for three years now under th Hoover-Mills regime. Yet the price of government bonds has been main tained. Currency haa been and can be issued under the Olass-Borah amendment, without regard to gold reserves. Yet no excitement bss been created financially. Neither has any material good been one. Democrats might have overcome the hard-way policy, but their own people, are turning toward It. The real death knell ot an easy budget and easier money wsa sounded when Bernard Bsruch went before the Harrison In vestigators. Coming slmultsneousry with th Hoover gold atsndsrd speech In New York and the MlUa-by-proxy address In Kansas City, it disclosed the handwriting on the wall. Congressional leadcra are really trying to save themselves sgalnst the charge that they have wasted the whole winter. They have marked three bills for passage and these prob ably will go through. The Wagner relief bill Is one. It removes the self-liquidating restrictions on the R. P. O. and will open funde for con structing many a waterworks, sewer and other municipal Improvement out In the oountry. Next Is th Hull Wslcott bill for a two-yesr mora torium on farm mortgages. Also in cluded la the curtailed bankruptcy bill. Deala ar being made to assure passage of these measures. v Every thing els of sny tmportanc Is doomed. Peer of th farm revolt awoke the senate early last week. Bad news from Nebraska and the mid-west sent the leglslatora Into action. That was the sol motive behind the fsvorable report msde on two farm mortgsxe relief bills within 34 hours. The mill-Wslcott and th Individual bankruptcy bills will b psssed be fore March 4 It th sam pressure keepa up. It was all a mlatak about Mr. Osrner threatening to discipline those Democrats who failed to support his atronjr economy Ideas. The Spesker dropped a hint about It In on ot his press conferences. He suggested It ought to be done. Mr. Roosevelt haa a powerful patron age sword over the congressmen in his party. He could easily refuse them poetmastersmps ir they declined to vote his governmentsl reductions. But when Garner saw the Idea In print. It looked too strong.

BIGGEST PROBLEMS If science should Investigate th subjsct th most probsbl hypothesis of approach would. 1 think, oenter around affection. Such would cer tainly be the advice of the novelist. The affectional aid of a peopls clusters around marriage and the family. One In every six msrrlsges will end In divorce. Yet, curiously enough, about three out of every four marriages at any one time are found to be happy marriage. Family Problems Studied. Th attempt to deal with family problems by th clergy, by th pby slclsns, by th court, snd by a grow ing number of social agencies snd in stitutions Is meeting with eonsldsr able success. It seems probsbl thy will throw a great deal of light on foross snd factors which play a part In produc ing happiness or unhapplness. It seems very probable riat family prob lems will throw a great deal of light on th question of happiness. Another great agency operating tn society today and placing the pur suit of happiness In the realm of public policy is the mental hygiene movement.

Judges and law enforcement otticera In th handa and control and under the domination of designing politicians that they may be made to do their bidding and serve their own selfish purposes; and, Whereas, we have recently wit nessed an unprecedented and fla grant challenge to the lawful process of our courts and to all legal author ity: and. Whereas, however, courageous, wise and Just our courts and officers msy be, systematic and continued misrep resentation as Is now going on will ultimately result in undermining their Influence and tn bringing them into so great a degree of disfavor that brave and honorable men will be retired from the bench and offices and be aucceeded by Judges and offi cers who will study, not how to ad minister Justice in accord with th spirit of the law, but how best to win the applause of the hour and the favor of corrupt and designing poli ticians: and, Wheress, these false, libelous and acsndalous attacks upon our courts, Judges and law enforcement offlcera, have been broadcast throughout the nation bringing our county and people into disrepute and dlsgrsce as lawless and causing and engendering hate among our citizens and threat ening the peace and tranquility of our community, atlfllng business and adding to the rlgora and burden of our general financial depression, all of which If continued will surely and ultimately displace our lawfully con stituted court snd lawa with mob rule and violence: and, Whereaa, by reason of the apathy and Indifference of our citizens these unlawful.

Work Affords Happiness. The family does not offer the only background against which happiness msy be observed. Many are said to find happiness In work. At least some do not find it a toll and take a great Interest In It. There are cer tainly types . of work which are source of Joy snd hspplness also. Happiness Is te be found for many In religion and-It Is trus that for a large proportion of mankind religion does bring a peace and abiding Joy. One other foci of t'orces that make for happiness Is the yeara of child hood. The capacity for happiness or unhapplness is determined somewhat by the formstion of our personsllty In the esrly years ot our life. This is an Important enough problem ss to the theme of a sepsrste discussion.
