It waa also thought thst the southern California lady who killed a aultor with an axe, and burled his remains In her basement, should remain In her present cell until next February, before talking to the board, let alone getting out.

Mixeaa Radio News Inaccurate TJ"VERY little while someone calls up this office and asks if thiB news item or that, heard over the radio, is true. Some times they are true. But more often they are not. Yesterday, for example, a subscriber inquired if the radio news report that Japanese planes had bombed a Russian village killing a score of Russian soldiers and civilians was correct. We had heard nothing to that effect. A query to the Associated Press brought back the report that such a rumor was entirely unfounded. A little later another subscriber inquired if it was true that RUSSIAN planes had bombed a JAPANESE village. This also was a radio report, credited to one of the national broadcasting stations. It, of course, was another canard. This morning someone inquired over the phone if it was true that President Roosevelt had refused to recognize Russia until that country changed its religion, or abandoned atheism the inquirer was not sure which another report from a leading California radio station. IT is quite apparent that the large radio news agencies are either indulging in yellow journalism which we doubt or are not exercising sufficient care in checking up on news reports coming to them, before releasing them to their subscribers which in view of the record we Securing world news is a tremendously expensive and exact ing task, which necessitates a every member from the highest gatherer, has to be experienced, We don't know where the their news, but judging by our tainly not getting it STRAIGHT. Until they perfect a better organization they should abandon independent news gathering, and depend upon the established mation. lVEANWHILE, listeners in a v A thii. rtAflrnwf tiAWfiniinpp over the air as established fact. If the newspapers of this country have heard nothing of it assuming it is a matter of genuine news interest, it is perfectly safe to conclude that the reijort Religion Can't Be an Issue ONE doesn't need to query Washington, to categorically deny that President Roosevelt has refused to recognize Russia on religious grounds. Such an idea is patently absurd. The very cornerstone of this government is religious freedom. WThat religion the gov ernment of Russia or its people, wish or don't wish to adopt, is no American concern. The unexpected delay in Ruesian recognition or some offi cial report concerning it has led to all sorts of wild conjectures and conclusions. Probably none of them justified. Soviet Russia owes1 this country and ifs citizens, about 8oo,0t)0,000 quite a tidy sum. agreement on tins ac.m taues cunsiucrauio uiua. Then there is the matter of credit. If Russia is recognized, America will want to sell her goods, and Russia will want credit with which to pay for them. Obviously American financiers will have to supply that credit.

Russia until this policy is officially abandoned. No doubt 51. Litvinov is willing to abandon it. But he is a horse trader. He will want something in return. What that is we don't know. But to dispose of it, will also take time. Uneasiness over the delay in Russian recognition, like un easiness over the delay in returning prosperity, is due primarily to two things, first, unwarranted impationce, and two, an ab sence of an understanding of the INTRICATE nature of the problems involved. There is nothing so simple about Russian recognition. Presi dent Roosevelt and Foreign Minister Litvinoff have had no move time than is necessary to agree on general principles.

SENATOR HUEY LONG, speaking at Alexandria, In hla home state cf Louisiana, gets a barrage of eggs and over-ripe Xrult from hla hearers. He responds with a barrage of words, calling his adversaries "polecats, low down pups and scoundrels." Politics Is on a high plane In Lou isiana, Isn't It? GERMAN voters approve, practi cally unanimously, the foreign policies of Chancellor Hitler and nls naal regime. That Is notice to the rest of Europe to LOOK OUT for Germany In the future. IN THE NEWS of the past few daya appears this paragraph: "Indications that the German war board's plan of strategy 'if and when the next -war breaks out' contem plated an advance eastward through Switzerland, rather than through Bel glum aa In 1914, occupied the atten tion of British strategists today." That haa an ominous sound. THESE reports are denounced by the German press, which Is con trolled absolutely by Hitler, as false and slanderous. But Switzerland, never Inclined to be swept off her feet by war rumors, cornea to the decision to Increase her border defenses. Things don't look so good In Europe Just now. IlHAT would war In Europe do I f to us? Well, If we have the good sense to keep strictly out of It. it would do us no great harm. It might even HELP to pull us out of our present over production mess. Soldiers have to be fed, and If Eu rope insists on fighting Instead of producing she will have to get food for her soldiers elsewhere. She will have to get a lot of It here. IP EUROPE fights again to the pot of exhaustion, future European markets for our peace-time products will be destroyed. That much Is cer tain. But, If we have to, we can FORGET foreign markets, and live on our own markets alone. It might be far better for us to do It. UT ENOUGH of war. Representatives of Oregon sav ings, building and loan associations, meeting in Portland, report, rather surprisingly, that already an actual shortage of dwellings, especially of the better type, exists In this state. After all the discouraging talk of over-production during the past three or four years, It Is at least refresh ing to hear talk of shortages. FOR THREE YEARS? there has been little or no building. Remember this: For something like four years, dur ing the war, there was little or no building. That four years of building inactivity waa followed by several years of active construction while we were catching up. It might happen again. o N EVERY HAND, we hear talk of we hear from every aide the doleful atory of the burden of debt that weighs us down. Listen: The burden of debt that weighs us down waa fastened on our backs by TOO MUCH CREDIT. During the years when we were making these debts that now are troubling us so grievously. It waa TOO EASY to borrow money, WHILE the economists are working out new ways of doing things. they might put their minds to the problem of making credit a little tighter In good times and a little easier In hard times. Favors a Sales Tax To the Editor: Thanks, Mr. Editor, for your In vitation to taxpayers to express their opinions regarding the tax situation. I have read Mr. Barnea and also Mr. Hcgner'a communications regard ing this subject and allude to them to say they seem too complicated tor most of ua but would be 'excellent material for college students majoring in economics. Mr. Barnea plan pro vides for tax exemption on homee up to 81500 valuation, which means 00 per cent of the homes in the smaller towns would be exempt; we are in formed that only 30 per cent of our people pay taxes: if this la correct, then there should be more people to help carry the burden and not so many exemptions. I favor a SAles tax not to exceed 1 per cent on .11 merchandise sold ; at retail with no exemptions, and a ! substantial tax on all income, above i 850 per month. These two measures will make all our people tax con scious and at the same time make capital pay a Just share, w.htch Is not the case at present. Cltlrena not paying any taxes are not particularly careful when It comes to rotlng bonds or taxes: a sales tax will make everyone more Interested In the matter of levying i Communications and collecting tax money as well aa spending the same. Two reasons for the defeat of the late sales tax are: First, practically all the wealthy bankers and million aire evaded Uncle Barn's tax collect tors, there being too many loopholes in the Income tax law. Villa was front-page news in all the newspapers for several months prior to election day and naturally there arose the question, "Why should the consumer pay?" Another reason for the fail ure to pass of the law la that the voters did not understand the law or were afraid of It, and are of the opinion that if the law had passed and produced plenty of revenue the succeeding . legislature might simply raise the tax to Increase the income. Perhaps It la well that the 3 per cent sales tax with so many exemptions and exceptions was detested; It did cause our officials to atop, look and listen to the voice of the people. Our legislature should consider the listen to the farmer and laboring classes rather than to high-priced lobbyists sent to Salem by the big Interests, the railroads, the public utilities and th capitalists of Port land. In order to secure the pas sage of these two measures (emer gency measures) the legislature which Is about to convene should promise the electorate that all the tax so collected will be used exclu sively for the maintenance of our school system and for relief purposes, and that the rate will not be In creased In the future as was done with the gasoline tax. The gasoline tax at first was rath er a painless one and It did produce results, but it Is no longer painless; It la extremely painful; It provides a lot of money but not sufficient to allow spending aa we nave done In the past few years. We should limit our spending and begin paying our obligations, which la considered good business practice. I see no better plan than a sales tax for a solution which will be ac cepted by tne taxpayers and voters. E. C. FABER. Central Point, Nov. 15. Urges Home Tax Exemption. To the Editor: "Civilization should ao function as to Increase the number of Independ ent citizens and home owners and decrease the number of dependent citizens and tenants. Adam Smith wrote this 100 yeara ago. In European states the attitude in regard to taxing homes Is quite dif ferent than In our country. In sev eral European states homes are wholly tax exempt. Homes were made tax exempt in Italy by royal decree in 1025. France loans money for single family home construction at 3 per cent rate of Interest. Vienna, Austria, gets no tax or return on capital in vestment on municipal housing. Rent consumes only 3 per cent of the ten ant's Income as compared with 25 per cent in the United States, in Frankfort, Germany, indlvlduala art) financed by the municipality, interest for the first three years la 1 per cent, and 3 per cent thereafter; as high aa 40 per cent return on con struction Is given by the city to home owners aa a bonus to encourage home development. Belgium loans 90 per cent of the cost of building homes, at 2 per cent interest and gives as a bonus a one-fifth of the cost to home owners. London gives a capitation grant of three pounds (815) per year for 40 yeara for each person rehabili tated In suburban area homes. If there were five In a family this fam ily would get 875 per year for 40 years. And we have fixed it so 35 per cent of a working man's Income must go for ' rent, or if this working man wants to buy a home he must pay, in some cases, as high as 16 per cent interest. Then after he gets his home paid for he must pay taxes equiv alent to 5 per cent Interest on i 82,000 mortgage. So a home ceases to be a retreat, a sanctuary. The natural Instinct prompts the desire for home ownership. A desire strong that It prompted a woman I know not In Italy, not in France. not in Germany, but In Medford, Oregon, to work In a store for 10 years and pay 16 per cent Interest during all thla time on a loan In order to own a home that she now flnda she can not pay the taxes on Thla la an actual case. Building and loan book, name of individual and tax statement on file. Loans on homes are such poor In vestments, with present taxes so high. that these high rates of Interest are essential if a company making loans homes Is to be able to keep out of bankruptcy. The Federal Home Loan act la for the purpose of rem- edying to some extent, thla condi tion, but the appraisers now find It necessary In appraising the value of home to appraise them ao low on ac count of the high tax charge against them that the majority of home own ers cannot take advantage of this 5 per cent money. If these homes were tax exempt then the measure would bring the relief it waa supposed to bring, but no honest appraiser would appraise a home for a loan very high If there was a charge against that home for taxes equivalent to the amount of Interest that a first mortgage of (3,000 at S per cent on this home would annually amount to, and that Is the case that confronts the ap praisers appraising homes for home loans under present conditions.
