Publicity for Kidnapers
SO THE country it faced by another sensational kidnapping
case, which presents the inevitable dilemna, fraught with
heart break and tragedy.
The parents of the Weyerhaeuser boy, react to the sudden
blow from the criminal underworld, precisely as did the Lind
bergh family, and as will every family, as long as human
nature remains what it is.
They want only one thing-r-the safe return of their child.
They don't care about the money, they are indifferent to the
apprehension and punishment of the criminals, let the boy be
returned safe and sound first, and then and not until then,
let the law take its course.
But such a procedure has proved to be as impossible in
the Weyerhaeuser kidnapping, as in the Lindbergh kidnapping.
Once the police and federal authorities are informed of the
crime, secrecy, such as the kidnappers demand is impossible.
Or has always BEEN impossible.
'

We are quite certain, the press
be willing to enter into such an arrangement, if convinced that
such a procedure, would not only save the lives of innocent
victims, but would not materially stimulate the crime of kid
napping and aid the kidnappers.
No publicity until the child
is reasonably certain the child won't be returned. Then all the
publicity available, and the press assisting the authorities in
every possible way, to track down
OUCH a proposal we believe is at least worth the most careful
consideration. Under the present procedure, with the news
papers printing all the facts, all the clues and rumors, the
criminals are kept constantly informed of what is known con
cerning them and what is beine done to cantura them. w
can't help but believe, this is
eluding capture; and certainly
victim improbable, if not impossible.
Relief for
1 1 '.HERE are two aides to every question. In the matter of
federal relief for striking workers, there has been a great
deal of criticism of the federal policy, which refuses to dis
criminate between those who are in need because they can't
get work and those who are in need, because they refuse to
work, under conditions which prevail, and leave their jobs in
protest.
The net result of such a policy, it has been maintained, has
been to encourage labor troubles.
or don t work, the Government will provide, it has been de
clared, that workers are virtually encouraged to walk out,
that strikes have in effect, been subsidized by federal action.
Such criticism we believe to be perfectly natural, and un
derstandable. However, there is another side to the question.
And no doubt many of our readers will be surprised to find
that the Oregon Voter, generally recognized as the spokesman
of Big Business, and extremely critical of the New Deal, should
be the periodical to effectively present this other side.
In the interest of throwing a revealing light upon the per
plexing problem, we print below the Voter's editorial in full:
"Strikers are not transferred from the employer's pay roll to
the public relief roll aa some people seem to think they are. They
cannot obtain relief by being certified by their union, their walking
delegate (who now rides) or their committee. They cannot obtain
relief almply by going In and asking for It. True, the relief admin
istration la under orders not to deny relief to an applicant merely
became his employment waa terminated by a atrlke. If the applicant
la In distress, If the emergency Is found to be such In his case
that he, or his family, muat have relief, he Is accorded emergency
distress relief on his proven need.
"Each application la handled on Its Individual menu. It must
not be forgotten that many ot those who go out on strike are to
a great extent Innocent victims. They ate Involved In a strike called
against their will. Many have been Intimidated Into Joining unions
to protect their Jobs, such aa they are, and when called out are
helpless to do other than obey the call.
"Othera go out as a matter of loyalty to their fellow-workmen.
With them It Is a matter of principle. They may be misled on the
Issues, they may be the victims of mlaunderstandlng, but they are
acting with the courage of their convictions.
"Elemental considerations of humanity dictate that If the dla
tress la genuine, relief ought not to be denied because of race,
religion, political belief or economic philosophy.
"Upon reflection, employers agree that there Is sound reason
for the federal policy of non-dlscjlmlnatlon. While In application
this policy does tend to Increase distress and the relief burden aa
a severe strike Is prolonged, it also haa the effect of mitigating the
emotional severity of the rebellious attitude which Is expressed In a
strike. A worker who finds that hunger pan,, .re being Inflicted
deliberately on his family because he goes on strike to support his
convictions Is a worker whose desperation la likely to Impel direct
action. Prudence agrees with humanity In disregarding the cause
of distress until the Immediate distress Is relieved. If w. deny
food to the worker and his family, will he listen to us? Put yourself
In hts place."

Why We Are Chary About Giving
Remedies
I read your article about the treat
ment of hydrocele with urethane. I
went to three druggists, one could
not find It listed, another never heard
of it and the third said there Is no'
such medicine. I would appreciate If
you will tell me where I can get
aome. (H. R. R.)
Answer You can't treat hydrocele
or get remedies used In the treat
ment. The article told of the modem
ambulant (Injection) treatment
which well informed physicians uae
successfully. Perhaps I mentioned the
use of urethane as anesthetic. Excuse
it, please. I should be glad to give
your physician, on his request, any
data I nave about this or anything
else in this column. By physician I

Comment
on the
Dafs News
By FRANK JENKINS
PERHAPS you are weary of this talk
of printing press money, and
what it means.
If so, skip this.
But you shouldn't be weary of the
subject of printing press money tc
the point where you will refuse to do
serious thinking about it.
It means too much to everybody.
A REASONABLY well informed citi
zen said to this writer the other
day:
"What's the difference, really, be
tween money bearing the stamp of
the government and bonds bearing
the atamp of the government?
"Isn't one just as good as the
other?"
HERE la the answer:
The difference between print
ing press money and government
bonds Is the same difference between
personal IOU's and a mortgage on
your house.
If you've sunk to the place where
you shell out IOU's for everything
you buy. you probably have the idea
In the back of your mind that you'll
never redeem them anyway, and If
an easy way to get what you want
as long as people will take them.
But If you put a mortgage on your
house, you know you'll have to re
deem the mortgage or LOSE OUR
HOUSE. That knowledge makes you
more cautious with the money you've
borrowed.
IT'S the same way with governments.
They know that when they sell
bonds to their people they'll have to
PAY THE BONDS when they com'
due, or people will QUIT BUYING.
When people quit buying bonds the
government's credit Is gone to ruin
Is at hand.
That knowledge la a sobering in
fluence and, goodness knows, in
these days of wild spending govern
ments need all 'the sobering influ
ences that can be brought to bear
upon them If national ruin is to be
avoided.
BUT there Is no limit to the amount
of printing press money that
may be issued, once governments sink
to the point of paying their blils
with it. There la no other money to
be had, and people HAVE to take it.
So the temptation to go on putting
It out Is strong so strong that usual
ly it can't be resisted.
PRINTING press money, when used
to pay government's bills, is an
effort to get something for nothing.
Hence it Is fundamentally dishonest,
Governments that are fundamen
tally dishonest can not long exist.

The administration Is still se

foreign nations regarding monetary
stabilisation. You mav accept it as

accomplish stabilization through

any more. Too many small nations
come In on an almost equal footing

first one large nation and then an

ring of political alignments which
defeat the purposes of the confer
