"The freedom of the press" has again caught lte tall in the door. An East Portland editor alleged the Portland underworld paid the ex penses of the Portland mayor'a trip to China a year ago. Neither the mayor, nor hla friend viewed the lie aa a cute Joke, so the editor was promptly indicted.. The scribe dis appeared, as if by magic, and at last reports was still invisible. This is a neat way to curb liars with lead pencils, though when they get out they can attack the way the warden managed the penitentiary. It Is not known where the mayor of Portland got the Idea that a professional per jurer with a printing press should be checked before he had Indulged in 20 years of unrestricted mud-sllnglng. The Republican party Is worrying about who will be "its presidential nominee In 1038 " This is slightly premature, and besides the tall-end of the depression Is no time to start worrying about something new, lr revelant and Immaterial.

The administration threatens to abolish the Coyote-Catching Bureau In thla state, and the Chamber of Commerce of the metropolis, which is not bothered much by coyotes, rushes to the rescue. This attitude is putv filtng, as there are more coyotes than Democrats, In normal years. By ap pointing three Democrats to catch one coyote, the public trough would have to be lengthened for the "deserv ing." There Is one drawback to the plan. Every time a coyote howled, the appointees would have to come to town and make three Democratic speeches.

Tli- nickel cigars that coat a nickel ava being puffed by the proletariat. Roosevelt Starts After Crime XTTE have heard a great deal about money recently. Well speaking of MONEY, how much do you think organized crime cosls this country annually I $12,933,000,000! Senator Copeland of Xew York is authority for that state ment. It isn't a guess. It is a total compiled from insurance statistics, vital statistics, state, city and federal reports. Twelve billion, nine hundred and thirty-three million! Over! a BILLION dollars a month. It isn't a temporary or emergency expense. It is a regular routine expense, going on all the time. If all the criminals in this country could be herded together and thrown into the Pacific ocean tomorrow, this country, with out levying another tax, could pay off its huge national debt in considerably less than two and one-half years. But, of course, Uiis can't be done. Crime has always been with us. Crime always will be at least until the millcnium which appears at this date to be several years away. But it CAN be checked. It can be materially reduced. And Uncle Sam has started out to do it. are glad to state that the first comprehensive measure to combat organized crime, has been introduced into the senate by Senator Copeland, and has the administration's hearty support. The first move will be to check racketeering. Some idea of the cost of racketeering may be gleaned from the fact that it costs $321 to ship a carload of poultry from Iowa to Jersey City. Thanks to the racketeer it costs $387 to unload that car and ship the chickens a stone's throw across the Hudson river to New York! The racketeer boss gets that. ' The second big drive will be against the kidnapper. And the third against the gunman, the holdup man, the organized gun toters in this country. CO that Uncle Sam may get on the kidnapper's trail without too great delay, it is proposed to pass a law that in the absence of the return of a person who has disappeared, it shall be presumed that such person has been transported in interstate or foreign commerce. To check up gun toters a most elaborate system of control of all manufacture and retail sale of guns and ammunition is proposed. Every bullet is to be finger marked, as it were. No ono can purchase a gun, except by an official permit, which identifies the purchaser as a citizen of good reputation, and with no criminal record of any sort. ' To render conviction of dangerous gangsters less difficult, for any witness of a crime to flee to another state is made a felony. The great difficulty in convicting criminals has been tlw sudden disappearance, just preceding the trial, of important witnesses for the state. ' There is also a provision to stop the abuses by criminals of the habeas corpus, abolishing the right of afipcal, in all eases where a writ of habeas corpus has been granted. That is to say the accused has just ONE chance of habeas corpus, he can't call it up for the rest of his life. A GAIN strict supervision of every convicted person granted a parole is established, and the rules for paroio are clamp ed down. Even more important is a blow directed at the "alibi" racket. Criminal lawyers lire forever springing alibis at the last moment, too late for the state to preparo evidence against them. Under this new law it is proposed that an alibi shall not be interposed unless notico of intention to do so, is given at the TIME tho accused is arraigned for trial. In that way the prose cutor may be prepared to combat it. There are a great many other provisions, too numerous to mention. But all of them represent an earnest desire to get at tlie root of this crime wave, and as far a it is humanly possible, crush a lawless warfare against society which is costing tho people of this lountry, nearly 13 billions of dollars a year I In taking t lis action Senator Copeland and President Roose velt can rest assured that they have the support of every right thinking nan and woman in the country behind them. Tho drive hiis started too late, but. better late than never!

Comment on the Day's News THE RIGHT DOSE OF ANTITOXIN IS A IIEROTIC DOES I killed a woman once, not with premeditation nor through negligence or mistake, but by accident, while I was trying to s&ve or prolong her life. Through accident, again, I was probably re sponsible for the death of a beau tiful child, whose life I was trying to prolong. Nevor mind the techni- cal details. Of course I regretted both accidents, but I never lost any sleep worry ing about them Z saw a sweet little four-year-old child sink down to death from poison while I withheld the antidote I had In my hands and argued and pleaded with her Ignorant parents to permit me to administer the antidote, when I realized that the parents were de term in ed to let the child die rather than give her the antidote I Insisted on having another doctor called In. The doctor who lived In the neigh borhood was nqt at home, so we had to have a doctor from an Institu tion, a prison. He had never engag ed in private practice and had never attended a sick child. His uncer tainty and vacillation about the giv ing of the antidote a few hours later the child succumbed. The poison was diphtheria, the antidote was anti toxin. I have lost many hours of sleep thinking about that case, won dering whether It was not my duty as a true physician to land one on the father's jaw and administer the antitoxin before he recovered from his astonishment, or perhaps to sum mon a cop whose heart, was In the right place and have him arrest the father on a charge of Intent to mur der or something like that. Dr. B. B. Yodh reported 229 cases of tetanus lockjaw) In the British Medical Journal a year ago. Four teen of the patients received no anti toxin or anti-tetanus serum. At that, two of them, with very mild symp toms, recovered. The rest of the cases were divided into two groups. Ono group of 103 patients received from 30.000 to 40,000 units of antitoxin in travenously and Intramuscularly; 36 of those recovered and 60 died. An other group of. 112 patients received the antitoxin dtroctly Into the "cis tern," that ts, a space In the brain, the dose being Injected through che Junction of spine and base of skull; 59 of these patients recovered and 53 died. Ordinarily, the victim of tetanus has a very slim chance to get well. People often have some vague Im pression that diphtheria antitoxin Is dangerous or poisonous In Itself and hence that the less tho patient gets the better. This Is a tragic error. I am well aware that certain individ uals who happen to be sensitized or hypersensitive (allergic) react with unpleasant symptoms, occasionally with fatal allergic shock, when they receive even the smallest Injection of antitoxin. Yet I know that this ex ceptional sensitivity can be prede term In ed by administering first only a drop of antitoxin and waiting reasonable time, say a half hour, to see whether there la any unpleasant reaction. In any case. If we are going to use antitoxin at all, the larger the dose the better, and If by any chance we happen to give more in the first dose than Is needed to neutralise the toxin that has already formed in the blood. that a a happy ending. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Exercise and Digestion. Please advise whether It is wise for us (wife and self) to do our six miles on the hoof in the evening after din ner? We like to walk every day, but this Is the only time we can walk to gether. Has It any detrimental effect on digestion? C. A. M. Answer It rather promotes good digestion. Vigorous exercise such as running, swimming, tennis, baseball, Immediately after a meal Is unwise, for it delays digestion. But mild ac tivity such as a stroll or a six-mile walk If you are accustomed to walk ing, has been found to favor normal digestion or at least not to Inhibit It. Soft Spots. Is there any danger of Injuring a baby mentally through pressure on the soft spot in her head? I took our 1 6-weeks-old baby to the doctor and asked him how to remove mill crust from her head. He removed them and I thought made unnecessary pressure, on the soft spot. He laughed when, I cautioned him . . . Mrs. G. J. E. Answer No danger of such injury. The smaller soft spot on back of head closes, becomes filled with bone, when the baby Is three months old. The larger, on top of the head, closes! By FRANK JENKINS PAUL MALLON, whose Washington dispatches appear dally In this newspaper, says: "Close observers have figured out what la In front of President Roose velt's eye now Is a projeot of pour ing billions of government money Into the hands of the people to ac compli the same objects his other experiments failed to produce higher price levels and renewed busi ness activity. He is using relief as a vehicle for stimulation.' THAT Is to say, he proposes to bor row money from those who have It and spend It with those who HAVENT, his purpose being to put Idle money to work and thus stimu late business activity. IT IS a big project so big that Us very vaatness makes it hard to grasp. So let's see if we can reduce it to simpler terms, so that we may understand better ,how it works. ' 1IITH this idea In mind, let us sup- vV pose that A, B, C, D, E, P and O live In the same Isolated community. A, let us now suppose, Is a man of unquestioned ability and Integrity, in whom everybody has confidence. B has $100, which he Is afraid to lend for fear he won't get It back. C has 100 bushels of potatoes, which he can't sell because not enough people have the money with which to buy them. D, E. F and G need potatoes with which to feed their families, but can't buy them because they have no money and no Jobs. It will be apparent that In such a situation business In the community would be pretty much at a standstill. 'morning of cobweb and dew, and In i other similar ways has propitiated the dark woman of field and of forest, this might be no vain adventure. Such i a person, our correspondent la ln ! cllned to believe, might be given a ; glance at a dryad the dryad of the madrona "a romping, sun-tanned dryad, with scarlet berries in her hair, flinging brown arms in the breeze." This Is a most reasonable supposition, and accords well with the testimony on kindred matters of poets, grandmothers and small chil dren, who know with a wisdom past knowledge the inner, secret truth of any numbers of things that cannot possibly be so. The best place of all to watch the madrona, with Intent to surprise a dryad, clean-limbed, wondrous and laughing. Is down southern Oregon way, and preferably somewhere along Rogue river. Now here Is something that Arthur Gordon Perry, columnist of The Medford Mail Tribune, may do for us all. He will pretend that he cannot. But he Is already down there, and it should not take much time for him to discover and Inter view a madrona dryad. It ought, so It should, to prove the most pleasant of assignments.

It weighed less than half a pound. There was no gold in it, no platinum, nothing of value in fact. Yet the finder refused $375,000 for it, and another rock of about half its size. For it was a diamond, perhaps the lost half of tho famous Cullian diamond. And while the diamond market isn't so hot these days, that chunk of crystallized carbon, when properly cut and polished, will probably be worth half A million dollars or more. Strange, isn't itt That any human being would care to pay a forttmo for a polished crystal, that is of no earthly use to anyone, except as an ornament! Strange but true. If it weren't for vanity the desire to shine, the urge to rise above the crowd, and indulge that fre quently forgotten "SUPERIORITY complex" a great nianv long established firms would have to quit business.. hy are diamonds so valuable!

A CUE IN THE DRYAD HUNT.
