"fast unto death." "Past unto death"
seems to be the general Idea of the
Saturday night speed Idiots. ,
Instead of joining the visiting agl
tators, Yakima farmers pecked them
on the head with pick-handles, and
marched them to Jail and the county
line. This was rough and not very
dignified, but effective no end, and
will save Yakima county the expense
of trials and beans for hellralsers all
next winter. The farmers In handling
the revolution, made no discrimina
tion between the sexes, slapping
down the ears of pettlcoated rumpus
makers, as gleefully as those who
wore overalls for the occasion. The
Idea In the Yakima country seems to
be to greet would-be anarchists with
brass knuckles, Instoad of a brass
band, and to swing a club first, and
act dignified afterwards.
Fall model autoa continue to an
nounce Innovations, the lateat being
"a shiftless gear-shift that operates
automatically." What Is needed Is a
gas tank that will fill Itself automat
ically, while the courteous service

leaders, like sausage out of a aausage

numerous to mention. The state al

the state to ahowa signs of going

also be able to keep everybody mad

What Price,
TPHE terrible forest fires in
strata that our present methods of fire fighting leave much
to be desired
As a matter of fact we have no effective method of fighting
forest fires once they have reached large proportions.
Before the sweep of flames, during dry weather, and on a
large front, man is powerless. The final outcome depends not
upon what he does, but what ihe elements decide to do.
Only a change in the weather can bring a change in the
situation. The dying down of the wind, or a change in the
wind's direction, may effectively check the flames. A sudden
rain may put them out. But barring such contingencies human
fire fighting efforts are vain. Relatively speaking man can
only sit on the side lines and wait for the fire to burn out.
IN FACT fighting forest fires is like fighting a malignant
disease. The only hope is to get it when it STARTS. Once
fully developed, there is no cure.
That is why in forest areas, the lookouts are so important.
If the lookouts fail, everything fails.
But if the lookout is on his job, and gets his fire when it
starts, then under the present system, a quick victory is practi
cally certain.
But the lookout, on the other hand, is also more or less at
the mercy of the elements. Take the many lookouts in the
Crater Lake national forest at the present time, for example.
With the valley full of smoke from the northern fires, to detect
a new blaze is almost impossible. Low clouds or a heavy fog
may also prevent detection.
So we come back to the point from which we started : present
methods of forest fire fighting, leave much to be desired,
AN airplane patrol might help materially. A system of fight
ing fires from the air might also be perfected.
This would be expensive. But the losses already sustained
in this Wilson river fire, would undoubtedly pay five percent
interest on a fund of $200,000,000. This is not 'computing the
losses in wild animal life, recreational facilities, and protection
of drainage and water sheds.
Few people clearly realize
ern forests from destruction.
he more careful in doing what
fires, and in generously supporting a more effective and up-to-
date method of combatting them.
Letting the Professor Down
PROFESSOR Raymond Moley, chief of the Roosevelt brain
trust, resigns as assistant secretary of state, to edit a new
national weekly, published by Vincent Astor.
Moley 's resignation is no surprise. It had been frequently
predicted in the "News behind the news" service from Wash
ington, printed in 'this newspaper.
. Professor Moley, incidentally, h far better fitted for jour
nalism, than for diplomacy. He has a very active and fertile
mind, not a very well disciplined or judicial one. Politically he
is adventurous, and radical. Ho likes now things, and likes to
say what he thinks.
Ho can follow his natural bent, as editor of an administra
tion "weekly"; he could not do-so in the office of secretary of
state, without getting into hot water, as ho did at the 'London
conference.
'.,''
NEVERTHELESS we doubt very much if this venture into
' journalism proves either a political or financial success.
The reading public, as a whole, will be rather skeptical of
an "administration" weekly. They will not go to it for the
"low down" on happenings in Washington. Moley is not par
ticularly gifted as a writer; and while he is very advanced in
his political and economic theories, with Vincent Astor paying
the bills, any raw meat in its columns is not likely.
We may be mistaken of course, but our own belief is that
this transfer from the secretary of state's office to the editorial
sanctum, will mark a gradual fade-out for Professor Raymond
Moley. President Roosevelt's noccptnnco of his resignation,
said many kind and flattering thincs about him. But what else
could he sayt
The truth probably is, that this transfer merely marked lot
ting the professor down and out as easily and graciously as
the circumstances permitted.

WHAT, NO ALGEBRA IX SCHOOL?
A little while ago one of our cor
respondents got the conductor In
dutch with a lot of readers by send
In a bit of ap
plause for the
suggestion that
the high schools
should d 1 s card
algebra and sub
stitute a course
in anatomy. This
'well meaning
correspondent
said he had nev
er been able to
see the sense of
running letters
In wltb figures.
1 thought that
waa pretty good and quoted It here
It cost me several friends. For In
stance this one:
I am a biology teacher and
devote a large portion of tho
time to anatomy and hygiene.
Oh, dear, that Just the trouble with
the common schools. 'Biology" is
taught for a term or two, and the
course lpcludes dashes or sniffs of
anatomy, physiology, hygiene, path
ology, bacteriology, & little about
everything and nothing worth while
about anything.
, . . But I am also an algebra,
physics and chemistry teacher.
Lf you are a doctor of any
standing at all, Just how did
you squeeze through chemistry,
lf you don't know why you took
algebra?
I confess I squeezed through chem
latry In high school and In college
and never discovered that algebra
had anything to do with It.
To sy an engineer could do
his work without knowledge of
algebra shows clearly you know
nothing about that kind of work.
I have never said or Imagined an
engineer needs no knowledge of al
gebra. If he does, that Is no reason
why all high school pupils should
study algebra. They are not all go
ing to be engineers. If algebra is
necessary for the student who In
tends to be a chemist, let him atudy
algebra. Certainly It la not neces
sary for the chemistry a physician
haa to know,
I enjoy reading your health
articles and have encouraged my
biology pupils to read them, but
shall do what I can to discourage
them from reading anything you
write lf I see another article of
this nature.
Oh, but that won't be so easy,
(Continued from Page One)
other words one which has "an ab
normal, unreasonable and uncon
scionable value or buying power."
Should by any chance and there
doesn't seem to be much the ad
ministration fail to resort to actual
Inflation by next January you can
bet your last dollar Thomas will be
leading a very strong bloc in con
gress to make It compulsory.
The campaign for definite Inflation
la at high pitch now. Thomas re
cently wrote an open letter to Kred
I, Kent, the New York banker, casti
gating the latter for a magazine arti
cle attacking dollar shrinkage. The
Committee of the Nation paid a
hlgh-preasurfl publicity organization
to get Thomas' letter national circu
lation. The Committee of the Nation Is
headed by James H. Rand, Jr. and
other men of affairs. The committee
haa spent a pretty penny here in
Washington entertaining and doing
the other customary things that ac
company an Intensive lobby.
Thomas' elevation to the role of
spokesman for those demanding
cheaper dollars la somewhat of an
anomaly.
When the Oklahoman first began
to register on the national screen he
was regarded by the monied Interests
as a wild man and a lightweight.
Since first inspection a number of
the financial big-shots have changed
their notion of the man. Thomas la
devoid of humor and lacking In fo
rensic brilliance but they found him
to be a most painstaking student of
very subject he tackled.
And, most Important, they discov
ered he Is a gentleman of the utmost
tenacity.
One thing alone seems pretty cer
tain In connection with Inflation.
There will be no Immediate move
actually to devalue the dollar by re
duction of gold content. Labor la
represented by some astute econom
ist. If .President Roosevelt should
thin out the gold backing of our cur
rency before NRA plaeea many more
men back at work than at present,
the unions promptly would demand
pay Increases In approximate ratio to
the devaluation.
Look for devaluation along In De
cember Just before congress meets.
As previously predicted In this col
umn expect the dollar to be toned
down to 80 or 65 cents.
The dollar, according to thoM who
want it shriveled, had a 200 per cent
value In Pebruary of this year, 'They
maintain It hasn't come down much
yet despite price movement.
Further almost two billion dollars
were withdrawn from circulation be
tween March 9 and August 3, they
charge. Finally, the federal reserve
bank crMit losa In that same period
amounted to over gl.400.000.COO.

Teacher, now that you've gone and
got the pupils into the habit.
Down with algebra In the high
school, and let us have a proper
course In human anatomy and hu
man physiology Introduced Into the
high school curriculum in its place
Everybody, whether he Is going to
be an engineer or a trap drummer,
should have a fair knowledge of how
he la made and how his body ma
chinery works.
Another correspondent takes me to
task for asking what earthly use
algebra has for Tom, Dick and Harry
This one says:
My dear Doctor, algebra Is only
a tool In mathematics, but it la
Just as essential to accountant,
engineers, chemists, architects,
astronomers, etc., aa a good knife
Is to a surgeon.
Then I suppose we should require
every high school pupil to equip him
self or herself with a good knife, In
case he or she decides to become a
surseon.
Finally, an Indiana high school
principal writes:
Algebra Is not required for
graduation from Indiana high
schools.
In that case, three cheers for Indi
ana, and may some of the more back
ward states emulate her In this step.

GET OREGON TAGS
Operators of autoa with Improper
license plates are being dally instruc
ted by Justice of the Peace William
R. Coleman to procure Oregon li
censes, and Oregon driver's licenses.
Four such cases were disposed of
this morning, with two more sched
uled for this afternoon. ,
Wesley Morrison, charged with op
erating a California licensed car with
out a muffler or tail-light, on South
Riverside avenue Saturday night, en
tered a plea of guilty, was fined B
and costs, and promised to secure an
Oregon license and driver's license.
Kenneth Stephenson, charged with
operating a Washington licensed car
with four people In the front seat,
was fined gs and costs. He also prom
ised to get an Oregon license, paid
the costs amounting to 94.50, and
the fine was suspended.
Warren Tucker, charged with driv
ing with improper license promised to
procure proper Oregon plates, and
the fine was suspended.
A plea In the case of Lowell Dew,
charged with reckless driving In a
Packard car bearing a Maryland li
cense, was postponed until Thursday
next.
The case of William Maltken, charg
ed with driving on the Pacific high
way last Saturday night. In a Cali
fornia licensed auto Is scheduled to
be heard this afternoon. Maltken.
the wairant charge failed to use due
"caution and circumspection, with
out regard for the safety of others."
The state police, ten days ago
started a drive against Improper li
cense plates. A score of auto lata were
hailed Into court, and ordered to pur
chase Oregon licenses. Most of the
violators had California licenses, and
complaints were filed that Callfor
nlans were objects of discrimination.
Users of Washington and Idaho licen
ses were also fined.
The state law provide that any
person engaged In a gainful occupa
tion In Oregon, shall purchase an
Oregon license. Oolng to work auto
matically nulls the 30 days visiting
permit. Many of the violators are
employed In the pear harvesting.
The county court Saturday, follow
ing a conference with Justice Cole
man approved the course. Complaints
have been filed from apartment
houses and rooming house operators,
that the enforcement of the law was
hurting business. The county court
(held that compliance with the license
law was necessary, and that Oregon- i

Of Becent Administration
Storm, Will Become Head,
New National Magazine,
By Francis M. Stephenson
HYDE PARK. N. Y.. Aug. 38. (AP)
Raymond Moley, intimate of Presi
dent Roosevelt and recent storm cen
ter of the administration la going to
edit a new national weekly to be
published by Vincent Astor, another
friend and distant relative of the
chief executive.
The sudden retirement of the Co
lumbla university professor and close
adviser of the president was an
nounced yesterday alter a heart to
heart talk between the two.
Follows Clash With HuU
The first break In the official faov
ly of the president followed closely
an almost open rupture In the state
department between Secretary Hull
and Moley, the assistant secretary.
Mr. Roosevelt la very friendly to
both Moley and Hull and all those
involved say everything Is all right,
Certainly there Is no break In the
friendship between the president and
Moley who haa been the key man of
hi group of adviser during the last
two years.
"I need not tell you." said Mr.
Roosevelt In his letter accepting
Moley's resignation, "that I appreci
ate and shall alwaya remember your
participation during these two years
in the development of policies hased
on our common Ideals. You have
rendered a very definite service to
your country; and your departure
from an official position to under
take an editorship will give you op
portunity to carry on the task of an
equally wide field."
Magazine Need Seen
Moley waa just as sincere in his-
letter of resignation which makea bis
retirement from office effective on
September 7.

tion, Astor, who was also at the sum
mer White House yesterday said in a
formal statement: "Aa we see It.
there 1 now, as surely never before, a
wide and useful field for a free,
impartial, and vivid interpretation
each week of the momentous changes
taking place in our American life.
There 1 also the need of a vehicle
for the expression of those ideas and
proposal that will tend to direct
these forces along planned and pro
gressive channels. To supply such a
medium, dedicated to truly American
ideals, we shall do our utmost."
The departure of Moley from offi
cial service follows an Interesting
series of events. Moley was the lone
man who accompanied Roosevelt to
the White House last winter when
President Hoover asked for a confer
ence on war debt.
Climax at Conference
When Mr. Roosevelt took office, he
was made assistant secretary of state.
He consulted frequently at the White
House. The London economic con
ference came along. Secretary Hull
headed the American delegation.
Moley went over aa a special messen
ger for the president. Something
happened over there that brought
the differences of opinion between
Hull and Moley to a climax.
The president, of course, stood by
his secretary of state. Upon his re
turn Moley was transferred to a spe
cial assignment to study kidnapping
and racketeering. He ha been on
that study for three weeks and sepa
rated from the state department.
