The Wrong Way to Do It
THIS paper ii in hearty sympathy with the effort to pay
members of the state legislature a reasonable compensation
for their services. The present rate of $3 per day, is neither
reasonable, just, nor in harmony with sound public policy.
True some legislators aren't worth $3. But that isn't the
point. The point is the servant is worthy of his hire; and the
good public servant should not be expected to serve his state,
not only faithfully and well but at a financial sacrifice. It not
only places handicap upon the man of moderate means, it
gives an unfair advantage to the candidate, who either has
ample funds of his own, or moneyed interests behind him.
NEVERTHELESS we can't approve of the measure presented
for approval to the voters at the state election, the last
day of the month. Instead of naming the rate of pay, the bill
gives the legislature blanket authority to fix any rate a major
ity may desire, which strikes us as being a most EXTRA
ORDINARY proposal.
In fact we believe this is the first time in the history of this
state or any other stale, that
to have the employee determine
what his employer should pay
Pretty soft for the legislator
to establish! And what a flagrant example of placing the cart
before 'the horse,
r EMBERS of the legislature believe their pay should be

pay they should receive, fix a
people vote on THAT.
If this measure is approved
are given the right to name THEIR OWN compensation, with
out any limit, or any suggestion, as to what that amount
should be; and then after it
session) wait until the next election, or go to the expense of a
special one, to determine whether or not, the people wish to
pay it.
If the sum had been stated,
able and fair, we would be for this amendment. With the
amount left blank for the members of the legislature to fill in,
we are agninst it.
Read the Voters Pamphlet!
D ALLOT titles 300 and 301, at
what is known as the bill to
from May to September.
Here is one of those propositions which bob up everv now
and then in this state, which is
the surface.
Merely reading the ballot title, the average voter would no
doubt be inclined to approve.
Why NOT move the primary date from May to September?
Political campaigns are tiresome and disturbing affairs. Why
drag them along for half a year, when 60 or 90 days would be
enough! It merely extends political propaganda, and profits
no one, but the orackpots and agitators I
IF that were ALL the bill provided the Mail Tribune would be
for it. But it isn't, in fact, shortening the period of the
campaign, is the least important feature of this measure.
The "dark complected" gentleman in the, woodpile, can be
readily discovered by anyone who will carefully read the text
of the proposal (and very few people will) which discloses that
if this bill is approved :
The presidential primary in this state will be destroyed,
The right to vote for national committeeman in one's party
will be taken away, from the individual.
It would be difficult if not impossible for an independent to
run at least with any chance of success, for a state or con
gressional office.
The party machines, Republican and Democratic would be
benefitted, the state committees being given authority to name
national committeemen and delegates to the national conven
tion. Which doesn't fill us with the horror, expressed by that
great political purist, Mr. Ray Gill, master of the state grange
for after all it would be purely a PARTY matter but on the
other hand we seriously question the wisdom of such action.
Far better we believe to leave the power where it is, among
the rank and file of the parties.
Transferring the power to a few higher-ups, would in all
probability, only lead to a revival of the old machine boss
nbuses.
IN short this bill is like practically all the measures on the state
election ballot the last of this month. A superficial consid
eration gives ONE impression, careful studv and analysis, quite
ANOTHER.
Our chief purpose in calling attention to the election at this
time is to do what we can to stimulate public interest, in the
measures which will be presented before it is too late, that
is before it is too late for the voters to look over their voters'
pamphlets, and know with some degree of accuracy what they
are voting on I

Comment
on the
Day s News
By FRANK JENKINS
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT'S message
to th 74th congress, which haa
been outlined at length In this news
paper, la a fighting political speech
designed to open his campaign for re
election.
That I fair enough. If h BE
LIEVES in his program, he OUGHT
to fight for it.
DOES he believe in It? Does he
mean what he says now?
These are questions that can be
answered only by President Roose
velt himself, and TO HIMSELF. His
own record causes others to doubt hi
publicly uttered words when he Is
seeking votes.
R. ROOSEVELT, in 1633, cam-
paigned for the office of Presi
dent on a strictly conservative
AMERICAN platform.
As soon as he waa elected, he Dis
carded this ptatform wholly and un
der the whip of his personal influ
ence caused to be enacted Into law
practically the platform of th SO
CIALIST party in 1933.
Ma ROOSEVELT, in the last few
days of his 1932 campaign. In
a biting, aharp, sarcastic speech, crit
icized President Hoover mercilessly
for EVEN INTIMATTNO that there
had been time when the nation had
been near to being forced off the
gold standard.
One of hi first acta, after hi elec
tion, waa to take the nation off the
gold standard.
'-
IN HIS 1933 campaign, Mr. Roosevelt
spok repeatedly and strongly of
the need for governmental economy
of the vital importance, of spending
less than wa taken In so that na
tional bankruptcy may be avoided.
He wa scarcely seated In office
when he began th most staggering
and reckless campaign of public
spending, with utter disregard of
public Income, ever conceived since
the world began.
SO. YOU see, pople"are Justified In
asking themselves, when they read
his fighting message of Friday night.
If he really mean what he says or
is Just talking for rotes, as he did In
1932.
HE SAYS, for example:
"National Income and employ
ment continue to Increase so there
will be no need for further and 1
higher taxes." '
That Is the politician speaking,
seeking to reassure people against the
gnawing fear of DISASTROUS taxa

man Inflationists than the admitted
loss of the Inflation phase.
Patman has told his associates pri
vately that he spent SI 0.000 of his
own money In the bonus fight dur
ing the lest eight years. He still owes
about half of It.
Mr. Roosevelt's dire neutrality
warnings may have sounded as If he
had some Inner reasons to expect war
beyond those generally known. These
who should know about such thing3
say he has none.
What his diplomatic outposts have
been picking up in the way of inside
tips are along the line of the follow
ing: Since 1933 the Japanese war min
istry haa allocated nearly 800.000.000
yen to civilian Industries for mili
tary orders. Metallurgy, machine
building and chemical works ha 70
been extended. No fewer than thirty
new enterprises have been launched,
fifteen new departments added to
old enterprises and twenty factories
enlarged. Most Important art the
Yawata blast furnaces .the new Mit
subishi aviation factory, new alum
inum factories In Fushikl, Nllgata,
and Yokohama, an airplane factory in
Thuruml and a powerful chemical
combine In Dalren.
The budget was not given out prior
to its presentation .News stories about
it were based on a summary, furnish
ed by the budget bureau. Newsmen
were told they could buy copies of
the actual budget after It was pre
sented.
Mr. Roosevelt has removed most
of the books from the shelves In his
olflce. One shelf now contslns four
or five volumes. Nine others are bare.
Before any legislative business waa
brought up In congress the opening
day. seven congressmen Inserted
speeches Into the congressional rec
ord without reading. This will enable
them to mall these more or less po
litical addresses free to voters under
their franking privileges. It looks like
