remains to be seen.
The aged financier on his arrival today, makes the first pub
lio statement regarding his case,
years ago.
He admits he erred grossly
broken the law or been dishonest.
Well, the lowest type of criminal is entitled to the benefit
of the doubt. Legally his innocence must be assumed, until his
guilt has been proved.
Even' those who feel most strongly against Insull should
reserve judgment, as far as his VIOLATION OF THE LAW
is concerned, until his trial is

" Samuel Insull represented that type of insensate greed, and
financial exploitation, which more than any other one thing,
brought on the collapse of 1929, and which also more than any
other one thing, the Roosevelt administration is resolved to
destroy.
Whether or not Insull actually BROKE the law, we don't
know no one knows but that through stock promotion, holding-company
manipulation, and all the tricks and dodges of high
finance, he did make himself a multi-millionaire, at the expense
of proper service to the people, no informed person denies. .

Thousands of small investors profited when Morgan won;
thousands of small investors lost all they had when Insull lost.
Public opinion aoolaimed Morgan, publio opinion wants Insull 's

two men played the same game, and shared identical views as to
what is right and what isn't, in the administration of Big Busi

XW course this diagnosis may be entirely wrong. J. P. Morgan

Including the selling of the last Issue

more than half of all the road bonds
Issued and outstanding; taking care
of the O. It C. funds so prudently
that wa could retire the road bonds
mentioned; having funds to build our
courthouse, and still leave $300,000 In
the county treasury for the further
retirement of road bonds. During
my term of office the county war
rants were alwaya at par, even during
the panic yeara of 1031 and 1033.
The county audit ahowa the

courthouse bills paid for as let by

Some method will have to be found
to refund county warrant so the

in the legislature to solve that prob

foreclose on delinquent property and
resell to obtain the funds, as prop

Comment
on the
Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
QENATOR BURTOK K. WHEELER,
w ox Montana, speaking in Detroit,
s&ys:
"Attacking Amarlct-'i monetary and
economic evils by remonetlslng 11
ver Is the untried but CERTAIN
means of ending the depression,
m JTAYBE BO.
ivt There's an old hunting proverb,
you know, to the effect that "there's
luck where there's lead flying"
meaning that If you shoot at ran
dom Into the air yoi MAY hit some'
thing.
If we keep on passing lawa to end
the depression, we MIGHT finally
stumble Into one that would work.
E AN WHILE, alo7of people old-
11 fashioned In their views, perhaps
cling to the opinion that If fewer
laws had been passed and fewer ef
forts made to end the depression
WITHOUT WORK we would be farther
along the road to recovery.
GETTING back to Senator Wheeler's
speech, what is the chief mpne-
tary evil In America today?
Nobody knows, of oouree for SURE,
that la. But It is highly probable
that the principal trouble with our
money these days Is that nobody Is
Just quite certain what It will be
worth a month hence or year hence.
Tinkering with silver wouldn't make
us any SURER, to say the least, as to
what our money will be worth In
the future.
A N OTHER question, suggested by
T Senator Wheeler's speech:
What la this country's chief eco
nomlo evil?
npHERE are plenty of answers to
1 to that question, but the trouble
Is that so few of them are alike. The
doctors know the patient Is sick, but
they can't agree on the diagnosis.
A lot of them insist that the trouble
la organic and grave, and that serious
measures are necessary including,
perhaps, a few major operations.
Others think the patient is merely
run down and weak and If given the
opportunity for rest and quiet, will
recover nicely.
T
!HE brain trustera and the more
enthuslaatlo of the new dealers
are In the first group and the general
run of conservative business men
are to be found In the latter.
PUT aa elmply aa posslbl, here 1
ON IB economlo evil In this
country:
People who have money are atlll
afraid that If they lend It they WON'T
GET IT BACK. A long a people
with money remain In that frame of
mind, business recovery will be slow.
They will remain In that frame of
mind until their confidence In the
ability of borrowers to earn enough to
repay Is restored. The trouble with
so many new laws and new schemes
Is that they have a tendency to
SHAKE confidence, Instead of restor
ing It. ' .
FROM an of ehlsyou will probably
gather that this Insignificant
writer Is one of those who would pre
fer to see the patient given the op
portunity for a little rest and quiet,
In the hope that a naturally strong
constitution will pull him through,
rather than seeing him subjected to
further serious operations. ,
Well, you wouldn't be far wrong.

Is This a Threat?
To the Editor:
In advocating Electa Fehl for the
county Judgeship, I feel perfectly
Justified In assuring the voters of
Jackson county that there wilt be.
In the case of her election, an ef
ficient, consistent carrying out of the
policies adhered to by her husband,
Judge Earl H. Fehl.
I wish to stress the fact that Electa
Fehl Is perfectly competent to do this.
She ha for years been the constant
companion of her husband In every
detail of hla service to our people.
When during the last year his work
waa made inexcusably difficult for
him by his political enemies. It wa
his wife who ably carried on the edit
ing of the Paclflo Record Herald. She
haa always co-operated fully with
him. giving generously of her Intelli
gent sympathy a silent, but most
efficient partner in all hla public
work.
It need cause no misgiving that
she Is not a Iiwyer, but rather should
It be csuse for congrstulatlon. The
American public cannot soon forget
the words of wsrnlng uttered by U. S.
Attorney General Cummlngs, and the
president of the American Bar asso
ciation, that the entire association
must undergo a drastic cleansing or
It would disintegrate from aheer cor
ruption.
Personally I have observed no evl-
dence of a reformation In the ethical
standards of the Southern Oregon Bar
association. So It la Just as well that
Electa Fehl Is not a member of this
profession.
It has been my privilege to see a
great deal of her during the last 18
months and I recognlre In her a
woman of courage and Integrity, of
consistent loyalties, and of persistent

CHICAGO, May 7. (AP) A merci
less sun, beating down on the parched
prairies of the north central states,
gave no prospect of relief to the
drought stricken areas today.
Only some moderation In the high
temperatures of Sunday was predicted.
High temperatures ruled the na
tion generally yesterday with the
central west taking the brunt of sum
mer's preview. By mid-afternoon they
had soared to 100 degrees at Sioux
City, Iowa, breaking all records for
May. .
In Chicago the mercury Jumped
to 92.1, smashing the all-time heat
record for May 8. The previous high
was 86. One death was indirectly at
tributed to the heat.
Hot winds swept parts of Nebraska,
passing to the drought peril. Kansas,
Missouri, Wisconsin and Minnesota
remained rainless and the moisture
deficiency in northern Illinois reached
61 per cent since January 1.
Around Wausau, Wis., forest fires
menaced the village of Moslnee site
of the moslnee paper mills. Seven
families were made homeless. Mill
buildings and Moslnee residences,
parched by the long dry spell, were
soaked with water to remove the
danger of flying sparks.
? The lower Ohio and Mississippi val
leys and their adjacent sections were
more fortunate. In some Instances
the weather bureau reported heavy
rainfall In these areas.
