Election Year REMINDER that this is an election year comes in the shape of a Digest of Election Laws of Oregon, a booklet published by the office of the secretary of state. We are in receipt of this compendium of election pro cedure, and note with rising interest that the primary election is just a bit over five months away. Important right now to citizens is the fact that the voter registration books are open. And right now is the time for electors to see to it that their registration is in order. Election books for the primary will be closed on April 19, but those who wait until that date, or a few days before, will be laying unnecessary burdens on public officials and 'it is just possible they may wait too long. In Klamath county there has been some changing of precincts this year, and any one with the slightest doubt about his registration should make an immediate check. Mr. Snell's "digest" indicates that that is about all the elector has to do from now until election day. The other things listed in chronological order are the duties of various public officials. Not mentioned, of course, is the fact that the voter has to take a tremendous ha ranguing from a multitude of candidates, and to make his selections as intelligently as he can amidst a great confusion of promises and boasting. Radio and Courtroom THE supreme court's decision in the Irwin case was of general interest chiefly because of the fact that a radio broadcast of a part of a trial was involved. The supreme court failed to make an expected definite pro nouncement on the question ot radio broadcasting trom a courtroom. It stated that this was a matter for the trial judge to determine. Questions involved in a matter of radio broadcasting are delicate ones for a newspaper to discuss, but we have yet to find any matter of general interest about which we are afraid to talk. A thought provoking discussion of the issue appeared in the Astorian-Budget, from which we quote: Ubs of radio broadcasts ot trial" may be legal, and unques tionably abould be, but it Is highly doubtful if such broadcast! are advisable. Broadcasting a trial tends to dramatize It and one has but to recall the Hauptmann trial to realize that such dramatisation is harmful. The press has been guilty of over dramatization of court cases of prominence, bnt on the whole it has a record of proper restraint In such activities. The radio cannot help but broadcast everything, no matter bow improper it migbt be or offensive to public decency. The press can act as a censor in the Interests ot public morals, and for that rea son the reporting ot trials should be left to It. It should be added in fairness that a radio com mentator or reporter can, and in many cases, does per form the same service of censorship in the interest of public morals. Radio reporting of a trial does not have the undesirable features we find in direct broadcasting from the courtroom. The radio reporter functions much as does the newspaper reporter, and he can eliminate those things which may be offensive or undesirable. Direct broadcasting, even limited to the attorneys' argu ments to the jurors, is another thing entirely, and raises questions of propriety and policy that should have the serious consideration of a trial judge when the issue is put to him. Barring a microphone is NOT barring the radio from the courtroom if radio news reporters are permitted there with newspaper men, as, of course, they should be. MALHEUR MAN OUT FOR PEIRCE'S SEAT- . SALEM, Ore., Jan. (UP) Bayard T. Merrill of Juntura in Malheur county today filed' his intention to seek the republican nomination for representative in congress from the second congres sional district the position now held by Walter M. Pierce. In his platform Merrill advo cated a republican party cbucub to define party plnciples, the prin ciples ot a republican form of gov ernment, efforts for International peace, and preparedness for na tional defense. He said he op posed crop control and usurpa tion of power by one department over another. His filing was the fourth listed with the secretary of state. Dead line for ruing is April 4. It has been suggested to the American Automobile Association that the government Install toll highways charging approximately one-half cent a mile. The high way would be a wide, protected smooth road with safety strips for separating traffic. About $15 a year la spent by the average auto driver for tires. : LET'S FIGHT!

BLACK IHSSKNTS No general attention was paid to a recent minority opinion by Justice Black, but tho supreme court justices noted It well. Black took opportunity of tho Indianapolis wntor case to dis agree with the entiro court nnd to tell what he thinks of It. His dissent sounded like one of his senate speeches, condemning the old court doctrine that the fed eral government has no right to Interfere with a state In fixing water rates. This waa his first state case. On federal rases Involving laws upon which he voted In congress, he has been concurring with the court. Ordinarily Justices muy re frain from voting on cases Involv ing lows they helped to pass as congressmen, bnt Black has been voting, although hla vote made no difference. The Alabama victory of Lister Hill Is being advertised aa a new deal wage-and-hnur success In1 tho south. Take that with an aspirin tablet. Competent authorities who have studied the situation call it more of a Heflin defeat than a Hill vic tory. They believe that if Shirley Temple had been running against Heflin she would have won. Ten Years Ago In Klamath A NEW organization whose only requirement are accomplish mem was ushered into being last liiKlil nt Fort Klamath by a group ot winter sports enthusiasts who formed tho Crater Luke Ski club to promote tho interests of win tor sports In the Klamath basin.

The realization of their com bined effort for many months wns brought about for soveral hundred peoplo ot Langell valley last night with the formal dedication of the Langell community hall.
