PAGE FOUR THE EVENINO HERALD. KLAMATH FAI.!,S. ORKGON Jnminry 9, 1932 Editorials News of Other Days Place Names Women's Features i Job That Should Be Done STREET CONDITIONS NEED ATTENTION Mooney Prosecution Is Hit Situation Offends Civic Pride THE street of Klamath Fall, espe cially those in the business dis trict, are in a condition that offonds civic pride. No word picture need be painted, for any one who has been down town knows the Ice and dirt con ditions on the pavement. Neither is there necessity for foing into the mechanical detaila of getting the job done. The city street depart ment, whose job it is, can take care of that. The important tthtng is to get it done. To the layman, there appears to be a necessity for a definite program to prevent these conditions. So far as we can see, the snow changes to slush, and the slush to a mixture of ice and dirt, all in the natural course of things and without human effort to halt the pro cedure. If something is done in the dark of night, it hasn't proved very effective. There must be equipment and man power to do something about this. If more of the latter i needed, what about the unemployed and the transi ents who are in need of a few hours work to bolster their self-respect in re ceiving food through the public relief program? This is not intended a a "panning of anybody for what has gone in the past It is offered as a constructive suggestion, in the sincere hope that there mav be remedy of a situation that no one likes. Other cities with similar climatic conditions may not be doing the job any better than we, but if that' the case we might as well do the job better than they. Roughly Dressed But Not Always A Logger Wa hd thought br our mighty editorial f foru to hT6 laid the libel low Ions befor this, but It cropped up again the other day In a Portland newspaper. Describing a young yegg who bad aet upon SB eld men and robbed him ot tal money and watch, the paper aald: "He waa rooshly dreaaed. apparently a lower." He waa roughly dreaaed. aald the treat newt organ, and therefore muat hare been a loner. That, we take It, la the eound logic ot a newa reporter. It happens that we know a number ot news paper men and not all of them are exactly Beau Brummels In the matter ot attire. But becanse of that fact we would not aay that a yegg waa probably a newspaper man If be waa "roughly dressed." The real logger, we would Inform the dally press, can and doea dress better than the aver age reporter. His clothes are likely to be well kept, his fare clean-thaven without the amall tblng affected by so many reporters and termed by them a moustache his shoes ahined and, yea, hie fingernails free from the mourning edge noticeable In so many person even newspaper men. No, today's logger in town la not likely to be roughly dreaaed; nor la be more given to acting rough than any other person, including newspaper men. We suggest that the press of these parts adopt a new comparison. We will even go so far as to offer a constructlre idea. Why not. If things continue aa they bare of late. say. "He waa roughly dressed, probably a aawmlll operator"? Four-L Lumber Newa. A greater understanding of the pub lic problems of city and county should come from the civic series being con ducted at the Methodist church on Sun day evenings. Discreditable Record Should Be Repudiated THE report of the Wlckersham inves tigators on the Mooney case adds another layer to the pile of damning evidence which has been built up against prosecution and police activities in connection with that notorious affair. It lends the support of another impar tial investigation to the widespread con viction that the Mooney case constitutes wrong that ought to be righted. Through the years, prosecution and police activities in the Mooney case have been discredited bit by bit until they are left virtually without a shred of respectability. Mooney has languished in San Quentin prison, be lieved by thousands to be the victim of class persecution. Long ago. there was removed all doubt that the state had acted in good faith in the Mooney arrest and prose cution. The investigations, of which the Wickersham probe i the most re cent, have revealed a record of amaz ing fraud. It would be a credit to the governor of California if he would re pudiate this record of dishonor and end the martyrdom of Mooney. A W isl Business Man Tula writer was not personally acquainted with Moses Alexander, former goiernor of Idaho and founder of the Alexander store sys tem which has been a part of the life ot Baker tor more than 31 years, hence la familiar with his career only through, the words of others. That Mr. Alexander possessed the full con fidence ot those who did know him la amply proved by his election aa mayor while a young man at Chilllrothe. Missouri, and later at Boise, followed by two elections aa democratic governor of a republican state. We are especially Interested In hit business policy which waa to expand alowly and grad ually, never extending bis obligations or com mitments beyond what he waa aure to be able to make good on. Many enterprising business men built up BIGGER store systems than Mr. Alexander but how many built up BETTER ones, more amply protected by liquid reserves, more amply ably to weather the hardeat busi ness atorms? Not many, yon may be sure, even it yon look for them In all parta of the country. Mr. Alexander's career carries a useful les son to every business man. In fact to every eltiien. Prepare for a rainy day by paying oft your debts and creating reserve when times are such that you can. Many cannot do so now but most of ns hare been through times when w could and nearly all of ua will live to see them again. Will we then prepare ourselves to withstand the next depresalon or fly high while the flying la good? The Boise man's business policies were sound. It is no wonder that he built atrongly and well, leav ing behind aa enterprise that waa probably never in better ahape than It la right now, after two yeara of exceedingly difficult times. Baker Democrat-Heiald. It is to be hoped that these rabbit hunt tax the storage space of the re lief agencies a much as the account of them tax the imagination of the hunters and the credulity of the listeners. Many a man is waiting hopefully for fashion to execute an antic that will make it feasible for him to wear cer tain Christmas neckties. Well, the democrats are making the most of the depression, anyway. here, dear, while I fill up these patties with the chicken." Jerry brought them over and set them down on the little enam eled kitchen table. Then when Joan's back was turned he picked up the pan that contained the chicken. Home way or other he aald afterwards, It was because he wasn't accustomed to pa oa th handle sllppsd and the chick en sravy decorated the kitchen floor, table less, splashed glee fully onto tli stov and the pal green wall. Joan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Neither did Jerry, I was trying to help." b said sorrowfully. Joan went over to him and But her arms around him. 'Honey, 1 love you so much. It's all right. Yon go out and set some more chicken sud I'll hav It ready In no Urn." VI and Bud heard the crash and cam out to se If there was anything tbty could do. Jerry mid Hud that he could clean up the floor, ao Bud sot an old rag and started scrubbing. "You ahould have known tome- thing like this would happen ltd Jerry, Jo. he laughed. "Better ask m to help you next time. Jerry lin t ot the domestic trend at all, 1 know." Neither am I. Bud. We'll both hav to learn together." VI went bark In th living room to get a cigarette. "H i marveloua what you ve done to Jerry, Jo. He doesn't drink at all that la, to apeak of. One now and then. Everybody's glad. You r happy, aren't you?" "Happy Oh. Bud. It s heaven. I love Jerry ao much." "Why not?" Bud waa wiping the walls. "It doesn't pay to love too well. "But I can't help It. Yon can't help loving. Why ahould I help It? He's mine, t hav a right to lov him." 'I know, but lust th ssms men are funny." Joan laughed because It seemed tunny then, funny to think that ah could lov Jerry too much. "You gave up a lot for Jerry, Bud aald. "I wanted to tire It up. Noth ing meant anything to me except having him.'' Joan aald. Then Jerry came bark and op ened the cant and Joan put the chicken on to heat again. "Better hav a drink before dinner, don't you think ao. Joan?" Joan didn't care, but ah knew Jerry would get a kick out of fix ing the drinks, so she aald. "Yes." It took a long time for (very body to drink and Joan had al ready taken the dinner up. so the potatoea were cold and the chick en waa only lukewarm, the peaa were as if they had been on Ice. Aside from thoie few minor de tails It waa good, Joan told them good-naturedly. After dinner the conversation drifted Into newspaper channels and VI and Joan went In the bed room because they wanted to get acquainted with each other. "1 waa like thla once," VI aald. "Just starting out, happy and all that." Joan did not ameer. VI flung herself on the bed. "I'm so lonely tonight. Jo. Let me be sad a little, will you? I try so hard to be gay that when I let down the drop la dreadful." Joan felt sorry for VI. "I wish there was some way " "There Isn't," VI Interrupted her. "There will never be any way. It'a simply my hard lurk. I have to take the rap. Plenty of other women have taken It and now It's my turn. Terrible to have the memories of happiness with Al den. thought, and to know now that some other woman It getting all th lov he used to glv to me." "Toull get over It. You'll meet someone els." Joan knew It wat a hopeless thing to aay, but she fait th mutt aay aomethlng.

Jerry had rather mod estly Insisted tbst tbey hare one, but ahe knew they couldn't af ford it, so the wouldn't even lis ten to him. "Why, Jerry, the Idea It silly. What would I do all day it I bad a maid to do all tbt work? Be tides, I want to cook things tnd sew things. I've always wanted to. but Maid Marlon never would let me." So that wai decided. Tht week following the return from the honeymoon they bad eaten all their dinner downtown becanse Joan always went down to meet Jerry at th oftic and It was handier Just dropping In some place for dinner than going home and waiting for a meal to be cooked, ao Jerry said. Joan agreed with blm because during the day she had tried cooking several dishes that she thought would be tasty but had turned out very badly. Just as well that be take her out for dinner until the learned to cook a little better. "Like to have Bud and VI over to dinner the first night that we feel like we'd like to have com pany," Jerry said one morning from the bathroom, where he was Shaving. Joan wat thrilled. "Oh. left do! I know I could cook a meal now, honey. Left ask them to com over tonight, "All right. You call VI and I'll tell Bud a toon at I get down to the office. Nothing fancy now Jo. Don't worry, about cooking a lot ot stuff. Juet aomethlng simple." "Oh, U will be something sim ple, all right. I don't know bow to cook anything els yet," "You'll like VI, Jo," Jerry aald at breakfast. "Bbe't simply swell. File's had a lot of hard lurk 'Oh, her husband left her for another dame and she's terribly in love with him. Hurts a lot, I suppose." Joan thought fleetlngly that II Jerry ever left her for another girl ahe couldn t stand It at all, but of course he never would. Mustn't think things Ilk that. Joan bad written up a dozen menus and had three cookbooks out, looking through them for rerlnes. before she finally decid ed that It would be a little too mncb to fix a roast and that per haps the really ahould do at Jerry said, Just tlx aomethlng sim ple. So abe definitely aet her mind on chicken a la king In pat ties. Bhs wouldn't hav to cook that. Just beat It, and there would be no danger of burning It or not getting it don enough. Lettuce aalad with Roquefort cheese dressing Jerry alwayt ordered that when they had din ner together; she would have that for him. Some kind ot pastry for dessert. It was more fun than anything she hsd ever done before, hav ing Bud and VI over to dinner and letting th little mahogany table with ber damask linen that ah btd been to tnxlons to use. "Jerry, dear, yon show VI snd Bud around th apartment be cause I hav to get th dinner on, will von?" Jerry took them Into th bed room and out onto th little porch. He showed them th beautiful picture that bad been Joan'a wedding gift, tlwtyt Joan'a. They wer from people that he didn't know, to how could they belong to him? "Keen fnrnlture, Jerry. Set yon bark plenty?" Bud tsked him In a low voire. Jerry winced. "No. Joan't father bought It. II hated to tar tbst, hut then It wat all right for a father to ive hla daughter a wedding ores Prentice could afford to buy th furniture a lot better than Jerry cottid. However, Bud knew It was a touchy subject. "White of him, I'd say." "Damned white," VI aald. "Well, It helped," Jerry ex plained. "Helped, I mean, to get us started." He hated put ting It that way, but that waa what it really amounted to. H thought about bit bank balance, wbirh waa eighty-nine centa when they got bark from their honey moon and bad not been added to sine then. VI went Into th kitchen. "Can't I assist?" the asked Joan. Joan looked cut In her llttl blue and whit polka-dotted apron. she aald, "No." "Sounds like two old women," VI went on. " 'Can't I do aome thlng?' 'No, nothing at all. Just taking up the dinner. You go and aet down, now.' " They laughed. "Your plar it adorable." "Llk It?" . "Lore It. Placet Ilka thlt make me hat to go home to my llttl den, eepeclslly now tine I'm alone." Joan started to say something and then checked herself. "I waa at your wedding." "Were you? I didn't aee any one, of course, only Jerry." "Yon looked wonderful. Jerry It awfully lucky.'-' "Oh, thanks." "Of course, I've alwaya liked Jerry a lot but I still think be's lurky." Josn was forgetting all about hr dinner. She alwayt forgot cbont -erythlng when someon started ta'king about Jerry. "I think I'll hav Jerry com tnd help me VI. You tell him, will you?" VI got np and went Into the living room.
