Editorial Correspondence
SACRAMENTO, Calif., April 13.-In the coffee shop of the
Hotel Senator this noon ran head-on into Rodney Keating of
Portland (the very intellipent affable personable represen
tative of certain large Pacific coast oil interests!.
In January we met Rodney during the session of the state
legislature at Salem, and were interested to learn his activities
are now extended to include the great state of California. Rod
ney confirmed an impression we had already formed, that in
fundamentals the state legislatures of Oregon and California are
as alike as two peas in a pod. There are the same lobbies, the.
same cliques and factions, the same types, the same talky-talk
and waste of time, and in both sessions the best work is being
done by the youngsters bright, progressive, aggressive chaps,
who are riding rough-shod over red tape and traditions in a
determination to get something done.
Having in our recent wanderings lost, contact with the M. T.,
or any news in Oregon, we were glad to secure from Rodney, a
bundle of recent Oregonians, from a perusal of which we con
cluded all was reasonably quiet, along the Rogue and Wil
lamette. esse
While fundamentally the two legislatures are very much
alike, superficially there are some interesting differences. In
the California assembly which corresponds to the Oregon house,
they have a bunch of little boys, who in true professional style
act as pages, messenger boys, which tends to promote stabil
ity, the members themselves, not having to do as much footwork
us is the case in Salem. A far more important and interesting
time-saver, is the electric voting system, which the California
assembly had installed this year, at a cost of $28,000.
Instead of voting in a long drawn out roll call, which for
merly consumed 15 or 20 minutes, the roll call is now accom
plished in as many seconds. At both sides of the speaker's desk
nre rosters of the membership, in clear letters white on black
background, and beside each mime are glass jewels, red and
blue, the former a negative, the latter an affirmative vote. At
the call for a vote from the chair, all the member has to do is
press the Yes or No button on his desk. Not only does this
register his vote so all mav see, but at the same time, it punches
a paper list, of the membership
to an adding machine, so at the turn of the crank the total vote
is tabulated, and the result flashes out in another illuminated
sign on the wall just above and
neat, expeditious and to a newcomer rather thrilling.
California is a populous essentially urban state, Oregon is a
thinlv settled essentially rural
these differences of course. The Sacramento exhibit is much
inure unified. More carnations in tailor made button holes, more
white collars and derby hats, while, the Santa Harbara delega
tion might have just breezed in from a house party.
A ten gallon hat and a cattle ranch outfit would never at
tract attention in the Salem senate, but the one exhibit in the
senate here, stands out like the proverbial wart on a pickle.
The wearer is one Senator Keougli, who impressed us as being
one of the most picturesque figures in the legislature. He rolls
his own and sticks his nondescript, necktie inside his shirt, as
soon as it emerges from his collar,
of having one at all.
He took a leading port in the
of ex-Mayor Porter of L. A. as a member of the new state
porsonncl board, and his comments upon the time serving poli
tician who refused to drink a toast in Tnris and also refused to
welcome Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt, when he visited the
southern California metropolis, were pungent and to the point.
Several senators had declared they did not know ex-Mayor
Porter personally but believed he would, or would not be,
acceptable to the people of the state as the case might ba.
Senator Keough cut into this routine patter with the clear
cut statement, he was apparently the only member of the body
unfortunate enough to know Mayor Porter personally, and if
anyone wished to know the type of gazabo he was all they had
to do was to contact him, outside, where there were no rules
against the use of profanity. "If you accept this SPOUT" said
he, you will always regret it, and you better put a padlock on
your watches or words to that
But Porter was confirmed by a majority of one after a bard
fight. This clearly demonstrated the effectiveness of Governor
Merriam's machine ably led by Senator Swing, former congress
man, and the administration's spokesman in the upper house.
Senator Swing somehow reminded us of Senator St raver of
Oregon, in that he isn't much to look at, hut stands head and
shoulders above his colleagues in knowledge of what it's all
about, and in effective leadership. Swing, looks as though lie
had just jumped out of bed, in answer to a fire alarm, without
time to brush his hair or put his necktie on straight. Hut just
try to get something through the senate over his opposition! In
this Porter confirmation he had a woefully weak case, with both
local newspapers opposing such action, and no enthusiasm for
the man, even in the Merriam ranks, but by sheer shrewdness
in generalship and quickness in debate, he kept the administra
tion forces intact, and make monkeys out of the opposition.
Surprised to find no Townscnd talk here and no Townscn 1
faction at work. The administration's emphatic OK of the plan
in its resolution to Washington, has apparently eliminated the
issue entirely. Instead of Townscnd it's all Kpic. followers of
Upton Sinclair, who himself opposes the Townscnd old age pen
sion plan, and concentrates upon his elimination of poverty by
"production for use." In both houses the Kpic leaders in
pressed us as being very capable men, particularly .tones, in til."
assembly, who is young, clean cut, and fat- removed in appear
ance and technique from the long-haired radical type.
The only effective opposition to Merriam conies from this
Kpic group, but they suffered defeat today when the governor's
income tax plan was passed in the lower house (the I'.pies want
ed a stiffer tax or none at alO, and those in the know here
predict the governor will get the best of them pretty much all
down the line.
Two veins ago no one would have predicted a conservative
stuffed shirt type of reactionary like Merriam, would ever come
out in the state of California for a state income tax one-third
the rate of the federal income tax. Hut there it is. (If course
Sinclair can take the credit for it, but probably won't.

Oregon has it nil over California like a tent when it comes to
liquor control. The last legislature here made a mess of the
problem, and the present one promises to do likewise. The large
liquor interests here are too strong. As a. result, alcoholically
speaking, all here is confusion worse confounded, and promises
to get steadily worse. Practically speaking there is no state
'iquor regulation nt all. Yet considering quality, hard liquor
is cheaper in Oregon, than here, and the abuses so noticeable
here are, up home, conspicuous by their absence. In fact the
more we travel the more we are convinced Oregon has the hot
liquor control system in the country.

FAREWELL TO
Certified milk Is expensive to pro- ,

ordinary milk. The very highest
grade of ordin

of the require

certified milk.
That Is why I
have always rec
ommended cert

preference to so
called Grade A
pasteurized for
all who can af
ford It, and es
pecially for feeding a baby, a grow

Too many persons are still con
fused about the meaning of pas

or purity of the milk. What this
term means la merely that the milk

paateurlzatlon, and It la a nasty
Yankee trick to Imply that pasteur
isation has any other purpose.
When milk is par-boiled (pasteur
ized) Its vitamin C la In great
measure destroyed. Therefore the In
fant or child fed mainly or ex
clusively on pasteurized milk must
receive a daily ration of fresh fruit
or vegetable Juice to prevent scurvy.
Canned tomato Juice Is as good as
orange Juice for this purpose, pro
vided the tomato has been canned
by the vacuum process, as used in
factories, Home canned tomato or
other fruit does not contain enough
vitamin C.
In my opinion it Is better to feed
a baby or child pure raw milk II
this la available, but In order to
guard against the transmission or
any disease in the milk, to bring
each day's supply to a boil for one
minuto only and then let it cool.
This short duration of heating is
ample for kilting any disease germs
yet it does not destroy so much ot
the vitamin C ns does the 20 to 30
minutes of par-boiling (heating to
14a degrees F.) of the pasteurization
process. Besides, If you attend to
thts one-minute boiling of the milk
yourself you are certain it Is done.
If you rely on the label "Pasteur
