Those Campaign Pledges
WILLIAM RANDOLPH HEARST is all burned up over the
Roosevelt menace. Heartened by the Supreme Court de
cision, he sees an end to true Americanism, democracy and con
stitutional government unless F. D. R. and the New Deal are
knocked into a cocked hat.
Some people may be surprised at Hearst's desertion of his
party and the man in whose nomination he took such an active
part. But these people are afflicted with short memories. In
showering the president with bouquets, during the first of his
administration, and replacing them with brickbats toward the
end, W. R. H. is merely running true to form. It has been the
fired Hearst policy for at least two decades. Boosting presidents
when they are popular and then batting them down when that
popularity starU to wane, has always been one of Hearst's fa
vorite indoor sports. His record as a president "maker" has
only been exceeded as a president "breaker."
And this course, from the standpoint of newspaper popular
ity, has been smart. For the traditional graph of the presiden
tial market is the one followed by that volatile element known
as public opinion. The newspaper that wishes to be popular is
foolish to stick to any president, after the inevitable reaction
start; just as a man is foolish to remain a bull when the bear
market begins. The path to popularity is a curve.
SO while this turn against the administration by Hearst did
not surprise us, the chief count he brings against F. D. R.
did.
For this is the charge that Franklin Roosevelt has committed
the unpardonable sin of not carrying out his campaign pledges
or the pledges of his party platform.
This of course is true. But WHAT president ever has!
Theodore Roosevelt pledged himself to carry out the princi
ples of McKinley; but he reversed McKinley on everything he
did. Taft pledged himself to T. R.'s policies, he violated most of
them. Wilson pledged himself to keep the country out of war,
and he plunged this country into the most terrible war in history.
Hoover pledged himself to secure an enlarged and augmented
prosperity, that would make poverty unknown, and plunged this
country into the worst, depression that America has ever seen.
So Roosevelt promised to stop federal borrowing, halt con
tinuing deficits, abandon bureaucracy and balance the budget;
he has not only failed to do these things, but has gone further
along directions he deplored than his predecessor ever dared or
dreamed.
QUITE true. But what OF it!
We have no doubt that when President Theodore Roosevelt
at the bier of McKinley gave that solemn pledge to carry out
the policies of his former "chief", he was perfectly sincere and
meant every word he said. That was his intention and his
desire. . But conditions changed,
administration, no longer faced the other. What a president's
duty was BEFORK the Spanish-American war was not a presi
dent's duty AFTER; just as what a president's duty was before
the World War, was not a president's duty after.
Times change and whether ive like it or don't like it, the
WORLD MOVES ON I Could President Hoover be blamed for
not foreseeing the crash of 192!);
blamed for not foreseeing the need for more federal relief rather
than less, or could President Wilson be blamed for not foresee
ing that, try as he would, neither he nor any other man, could
keep this country out of the world war.
have no quarrel with William Ritiulolph Hearst or an.v-
one else who onnoses the
the principles of the New Deal.
There are two sides to every
two aides to this one.
But we do regard it as rather childish to make a point of
the fact that President Roosevelt has not carried out his cam
paign pledges and the provisions of his party platform to the
letter, when practically all presidents like Roosevelt, have been
forced by circumstances over which they had no control to do
the same.
Ijet Franklin Roosevelt like his predecessors, stand or fall
on the record he has made SINCE he became president; not
upon what he or his party platform may have said BEFORE.
Kill It
AS to the underground but persistent agitation, by forces of
radicalism and discontent, to discredit Governor Martin,
and if possible secure his recall, we heartily agree with the state
ment of H. C. Boyer, president of the Oregon Producers and
Shippers association, made public yesterday.
Mr. Boyer is a Republican and therefore can be accused of
no partisan bias in what he has to say. He feels that to further
disorganize this state by a recall election, would be nothing
short of a calamity and while he is certain such an effort would
be overwhelmingly defeated, he believes public opinion in this
state should, in the interest of the state, scotch it before it starts.
We quote his statement in part :
"A, a cltlwn of Oregon, and without regard to partisan

Brady.
Recall, If your memory la not fall
ing, what we pointed out earlier
first, that arteriosclerosis Is a NU
TRITIONAL condition, second that it
BEGINS IN THE INTIMA or lining
of the blood vessels, and third that
tn nearly all cases of cardiovascular
degeneration there Is a period ol
hypertension ( elevated blood pres
sure) which precede the fully de
veloped symptoms of arteriosclerosis.
Now, then, Jot this down In your
little book : A smoke elevates the
blood pressure more certainly - than
any other drug except adrenln Itself,
anc the pressure remains high for a
considerable period. Mainly on this
physiological observation I base my
belief that abuse of tobacco la a
cause of arteriosclerosis, cardlovas
cular degeneration, premature se
nility. I am quite fond of tobacco. I know
that one derives far greater enjoy
ment from It If he uses It temper
ately than he can possibly get from
abuse of tobacco. What constitutes
excess or abuse perhaps varies with
circumstances, For moat of us, any
indulgence at all In the course 01
the day's work or play is excessive,
In my opinion. Tobacco is least in
jurious and most enjoyable In the
after-dinner hour of relaxation when
the day Is over. I am speaking ol
adults. I believe tobacco Is Invari
ably Injurious to children, and In
the sense of physiological develop
ment we are all children until we
attain the age of 22 to 25 years. So
far as I know, it Is immaterial
whether the tobneco Is used in the
form of cigarette, cigar, pipe, chew
ing or snuff.
Hard work or overwork has been
held responsible for premature de
cline or waning vitality In some in
stances. I believe the excesses and
poisonings nlrrady mentioned are the
real factors In such cases.
Worry, stress, anxiety, fear, hatred.
envy. Jealousy and anger may in
deed be hard on the arterlea, for
these emotions cause an outpouring
of excessive adrenln from the adre
nal glands Into the blood stream,
and adrenln raises the blood pres
sure. With any such emotion there
Is repression or suppression of the
impulse to overt action, and that Is
why It does harm. The adrenln speeds
up all the vital functions, and the
effect la comparable with racing an
nutomobile engine or throwing a belt

Comment
on the
Day's News
Br FRANK JENKINS
ITTLE GEORGE WEYERHAEUSER
a- is saie at nome, and a wnoie na
tlon breathes easier.
His curly head and hi frank, boy
ish face, aa pictured tn the news
papers, had won their way Into the
hearts everywhere, and his safe re
turn Is hailed with Joy by all of us.
This Isn't really such a big, cold,
cruel world, after all, and warm, hu
man sympathy la more abundant
than the cynics would have ua be
lleve.
ON the face of what little Is
known aa these words are writ
tent It appears that tha ransom
money was probably paid, a demand
ed, on Tuesday, while the kidnaped
boy wasn't released until early Sat
urday morning.
The reason for that Is fairly obvi
ous. As soon as the money waa paid.
the kidnapers skipped, leaving the
actual release of the child to minor
agents. Thus the principals were
given several days' start In their get
away. It Is too bad, of course, to see
them get ANY of the breaks, but
most of us will agree that the safety
of the boy came first, and that other
considerations wer elf minor impor
tance.
That Is the way any of ua would
feel about It If his child were kid
naped. ITTLE GEORGE was delivered
safely, and apparently was reas
onably well treated during his cap
tlvity.
For that, give the kidnapers no
credlit for kind hearts, nor let it
weigh with a Jury If and when they
are captured. They merely realized
cold-bloodedly that he was worth
more to them alive and well treated
than dead or Ill-treated.
Kidnapers are the scum of the
earth, and are entitled to no credit
whatever. If they were anything
short of the cruel beast they are.
they would not be kidnapers.
SPEAKINO of breaks, consider the
one that came to John H. Dreher.
veteran reporter of the Seattle
Times. For a couple of hours on
Saturday morning, he was the big
gest -newspaper man In America.
A kidnaped boy whose curly head
and winning face had won their way
Into every heart In the country had
Just been released. The fact of his
release wa known, but NOTHING
ELSE. Every newspaper in this coun
try and Canada practically every
newspaper In the world was frantic
for details.
At this Journalistic crisis Dreher's
taxicab blundered blissfully Into the
battered flivver in which little
George Weyerhaeuser was being taken
back to his parents, and for an hour
Dreher had the biggest story in the
world right In his own hands, with
nobody around to bother him.
UNLESS you are a real newspaper
man. with a resl newspaper man's
hunger for EXCLUSIVE NEWS In
your blood, you simply can't under
stand the glory that is DTeher's to
day, or the exultation that was his
during that hour or more Saturday
morning.
The story of Dreher's luck will be
told and retold In newsrooms for
years and years to come, and thou
sands of cubs Just starting Into the
business will He awake nights and
yearn for a miracle like that to hap
pen to them.
-
THE essence of a great editor's
greatness la to have a man on
the spot when big news breaks, and
that Joy Ineffable came to the news
editor of the Seattle Times on Satur
day morning.
So excuse him if his hatband Is
little swelled today. Bu give most
of the credit to the reporter who was
on the Job.
THE boy is home esfe. and every
body is rejoicing. The arm of
the law has been Impotent so far,
for little could be done for fear of
endangering the kidnaped child's life.
But the law's Job no begins. It
Is the Job of the law to track down
and capture the kidnaper with as
little delay as possible, so that kid
naping may be sternly discouraged in
the future.
It Is a big Job.

Townsend chib No. 1. ha been given
every consideration by the commit
tee. He stated that some municipal
bodies have approved the plan hy
resolution, and that others have dis
approved of it. and that the plan has
not met with favorable action by
congress.
"The question has caused friction
and strife among members of city
councils In other communities, and
It would be most unfortunate to in
ject anything before this body that
would tend to create any discord,
which naturally would later reflect
in other matters." Fliegel reported.
Other matters to come before the
e uncil included an application for
a package store class "A" license,
submitted by Fred C. Bortz. for a
lunch room owned by Al Meusel. at
