At that time we wrote: "Instead of looking backward the railroad should look for ward; Instead of asking financial aid to keep an antiquated sys tem functioning, they should bring their transportation facilities up to date; instead of complaining about truck and airplane com petition, they ehould beat trucks and airplanes at their own game combining greater speed with greater safety. With their inval uable rights of way- and central terminals, this could be done." The U. P., according to press company has placed a $200,000 motored train, capable of traveling 110 miles per hour. Such a train can make the run from Omaha to Los Angeles in 30 hours, instead of 50 or 60, without exceeding 90 miles per hour. As greater experience brings improvements, engineers claim there is no reason why such a run could not be made in 24 hours one night from L. A. to Omaha ONE NIGHT AND TWO DATS to Chicago! That a boy, U. P.I The Matt Tribune, of course, does not olaim to have originated the idea. We first heard of it from Henry Ford, and understand he and Firestone got the idea originally from Germany, where high speed stream-line trains are already operating. Here's hoping the S. P. and lead. By doing so they can demonstrate the railroads are not dead yet and if they die have A Good Way Out A S FAR as President Roosevelt and the approaching eco nomie conference are concerned, matters are working out much as we expected. ' . As the time approaches for becomes more and more probable that the conference will be a flop.- The foreign delegates all mined to get all they can and willing to TALK disarmament and concessions; but it is per-i fectly plain, they don't intend to DO anything. In fact, from the standpoint of reducing militarism, and increasing inter national friendliness, the London meeting promises to be held in an atmosphere of suspicion renders any satisfactory results, Of course President Roosevelt knows this. He also knows thqt only one thing can prevent complete failure, that is a dra matic world appeal to public opinion, over the heads of the delegates, directly to the people, who want peace, and who want relief from the fear and In other words an appeal in made in Paris, by President Wilson, during the peaoe conference. And of course, President can do it. OO we have the precise situation, predicted in this column three or four weeks ago. Great pressure is being brought to bear upon the President to attend this conference, and save it from disaster. Such a request appeals both to his fighting spirit and his sense of public But we still hope he will resist the temptation, as far as attending the conference in his that is as a IT. 9. representative to the conference, itself. Far better in our judgment to make his appeal from this country, or if it would be more effective in London, then make a quick trip abroad, deliver the call to peace and world ad justment, and return immediately home. In fact this latter plan strikes us as an excellent one. : It would have all the advantages of the Wilsonian procedure, and none of it drawbacks which in the case of President Wilson proved fatal. Such unprecedented action, nothing else could. As a free liberations of the conference, save the conference and the cause of world peace, and com pletely thwart the European plan, to make him a sacrifice, to the superior . oraft and secret maohinations of Old World diplomacy. ' , The Sales Tax THE best argument we have seen for sales tax in this state is Anntftined in tin fnllnwinc. nffinial innAnn(imnf Viv the Manufacturers and Merchants Association of Oregon through its manager, W. C. Francis: We are in favor of a sales tax because : Such a tax produces revenue without destroying values. It will bring relief to farmers and small home owners. It will bring relief to the business man by greatly reducing his personal property tax. It will restore values to real and personal property. It will not confiscate property. It cannot sell a farm or home for taxes. - It has no delinquencies and no sheriffs sales. The taxpayer can save the tax either wholly or in part. It is a reliable tax and has large volume. . It rests upon ability to spend. It will encourage and reward economy and thrift. It will discourage extravagance and waste. The time and amount of the payment are largely at the option of the taxpayer. It is a direct tax, directly levied and collected. It taxes the transient population. 1 It taxes the spending instead of the saving ability of the taxpayer. It eliminates cost of assessing and minimizes; cost of col lecting. With a sales tax or a consumers' tax, the citizen Is never in debt to his state; he pays as he goes. The most important advantage that a sales tax will bring is to assist in restoring values to real estate the basis of all wealth and prosperity. Mr, Harding Returns B O.

TOO DARN MANY N EUROTICS LN THESE BENIGHTED STATES One of Vie numerous modern prophet stakes everything on the hypothesis ihst disease arises from association , sug gestion, which arouses fear, and this fear of the disease so weighs bn the mind that the actual symp toms of the dls- ase are produced. Now If we could flraw a clear divid ing line between tiysterlcal people ind people of sta ble mentality, this notion of disease mlgnt serve very well, for trhe hys terical class. But It la scarcely enough to account for real sickness. A man of middle age and neither vocation nor avocation, neither enough work nor a good hobby, some how became obsessed with the Idea that he was developing cancer of the stomach. From time to time he would consult a physician, but he never divulged what was on his mind and he rather resented the fact that various physicians failed to find any thing much the matter with hhn. He assumed they didn't know or per haps they did not care to tell him the truth. . - , , His constant Introspection and worry began to get In Its deadly work. The man lost weight, lost appetite, lost strength, lost what little Interest he had In life. His acquaintances, In that thoughtless or cruel way ac quaintances have, began to comment on the poor fellow's ghastly appear ance anj to ask what In the world was the matter with him. That alone is almost enough to make a normal person 111. The unfortunate victim of obsession now counted over his various symptoms and found they tallied perfectly with what he had been led to believe to be the symp toms of cancer of the stomach. At tlils stati of the tragedy the man came into Intimate contact with a physician not professionally but socially. It happened the physician impressed him as an honest man, al though a doctor. Little by little the medical friend broke down the Inva lid's falseworks and finally reached the core of common sense. Oh, yes, there's a core of that in nearly all of us, The Invalid cow went back to his last physician and told him all about it. The physician assured him the symptoms did not suggest cancer, but proposed that they go through with the necessary tests and anaylees and make sure. When all this waa done the findings were so typical of or Editorial Comment ; Banks Verdict Jurors In the Banks murder trial were in a better position to weigh the evidence than were readers . of the Portland papers. They did not permit themselves to be swept off their feet by the specious pleadings of an elo quent trial lawyer who tried to en noble monstrous murder Into heroic martyrdom. Banks was not a martyr, but man of tyrannous disposition. who ruthlessly libelled those who would not do his bidding and who destroyed character in his ambition to rule. The officer whom Banks murdered was a faithful servant of government, a husband and father killed in the line of duty. Banks was not Insane. He was unbalanced, as are men of arbitrary selfish charact- and when frustrated he became desperate and dangerous. He threat ened to kill unless he could over ride law, and finally he did kill. He deserved hanging. It Is fortunate for Jackson county that so dangerous a political desperado Is not permitted to be at large there with the prestige of acquittal for heinous crime. M an unscrupulous organizer of lawless men he was a threat to safety and order: It Is fortunate that no more families were bereaved by his wanton murderous acta or the acts of follow ers who were even less responsible. Underneath all society, in every clvil- lred community. Is a low element that is ready to rob, loot, rape and mur der. That Is the kind of an element that is loosed to prey upon decent folk, their women and children, when desperate lawless politicians like Banks are able to usurp power in defiance pf lawful authority.

From that mo ment onward restoration of health was an uninterrupted process. Today the man is perfectly well. Now I believe there are innumer able uerotlcs in these benighted states Just like that.

For in stance, a solution of one ounce, of Iron and ammonium citrate In four ounces of water, and a grain of cop per sulphate added, makes an excel letn remedy for anemia In which there is a' low hemo-globln or red coloring mater in the glood.

I TO MAKE APPEAL FOR DRY REPEAL WASHINGTON, June 3 () A di rect appeal-to the states to carry out the Democratic campaign pledge and ratify repeal of the prohibition amendment is expected of President Roosevelt by Democratic leaders. With seven states already in line for repeal and two othera to vote on the uestlon next week, members from dry and doubtful spates have appeal ed to Mr. Roosevelt to inn his post master general and national commit-' tee chairman, James A. Parley, in making a personal appeal for action. They have gained the Impression that he will do so. Already the president has obtain ed a provision In the tax section of the Industrial recovery bill which wi'l allow the abolition ot the special tax es it carries when and If revenues begin to flow Into the treasury thru a reinstatement of the liquor taxes that obtained before prohibition. Mid-western Democrats have urged that the president speak his mind before Indiana votes next week. Southerners have asked that he make the appeal before Alabama steps out July 18 as the first southern state to vote. Illinois will vote with Indiana nett week. Twenty-three other states hav t their voting date definitely for tils year ad there Is a possibility of action by the 3 necessary to ratify before the end of the year.

Only a few of the acts of the 19S3 legislature which will become effect' lve at the expiration of the 90 days following the close of the session are of major importance, the majority twjhg amendatory, corrective or of a minor nature. The legislature enacted 466 new lows, but the most important ones, such as appropriations, racing bin, banking supervision, city refunding and unemployment relief, were de clared emergencies and became laws upon the signature of the governor, There were 110 emergency bills. Only three bills will be referred by petition if all procedure necessary has been compiled with. The four cent tax on oleomargerne referen dum has been assured a place on tho ballot, while petitions are still oat for referring the grange power bill and the bill to amend the initiative and referendum law.

June 3 My friend, philosopher, urged a variation of routine as a mental perk New York and Its treadm.ll routine, he de clared, has a way of Jostling us in to a corner.

Mclntyre presslona smudg ed with sleep. Even blinking cats have lost the thrill of vicarious romance. In the winey exultation of morning air I stood on a curb, gazing up and down the chasmed street. A policeman somersaulting his night stick at the end of Its leather loop sauntered around the corner. He approached with alight suspicion that seemed allayed by a casual glance, and moseyed on. A taxi unloaded a bewildered young couple at the Wal dorf, across the way. In making his turn, the driver winked and thum-Jerked toward them: "Just eloped to Greenwich!" They looked delightfully nuptial. New lives starting with a new day. As a stern partisan of reality, I wondered what the groom's salary was and how long before that first "disillusioning quarrel!

Extravagant eulogy fpr a m.ig unable to fill a fountain pen or in sert a new typewriter ribbon! There's a fascination In the arcade of cubicle shops chinked in disarray of a long tunnel. In a window of bright-Jacketed books a card an nounces: "For laughs read Wode house. For romance. Kathleen Norm. For mystery, E. Phillips Oppenhelm But for peace of soul, Edwin Arling ton Robinson. And bulwarked by such reflections I emerged into the early andante furlosa of brilliant ho tels surrounding the station. Dayllgnt streaked the skies.
