Oaa Yaar DellTirad b7 Ona Month Thru Montlia 811 Montha Ona Yaar Suburban Street Legislation THE ruckus at the courthouse over the so-called "cash box fund" directs attention to the need for a legally established setup for doing something about suburban streets. The cash box procedure was an attempt to get at this troublesome problem in lieu of other methods which have been proposed but not set up in the law. . At present, there is no way under the law for im provement of these streets, which are not on the county road system. Still, many of them are lined with houses in nearly urban density and the residents of these places are in serious need of good street facilities. Even though willing to pay for the improvements, as is done in the city, there is no legal method aset up for them to do it. : At the last session of the legislature a bill, known then as Senate Bill 477, was introduced at the instance of suburbanites in this community. In general, purpose of this bill was to authorize the establishment of road and highway districts, under which property to be benefited by street and sidewalk improvements could be equally assessed and the money spent for the improvements. This bill passed the senate in the last session. But it was introduced so late that it did not get proper con sideration in the house, and it did not become a law. Suburbanites with streets that need improving, and will ing to contribute their fair share to the improvement, were still left without any legally established procedure for doing it The cash box scheme scored by the grand jury was a method whereby such suburbanites contrib uted to a fund, kept separate from county business, and from which disbursements were made for improvements not on county roads but on suburban streets. Again the legislature is in session. The time is at hand for legislative action that will enable suburban freehold ers, willing to pay their fair share for street improve ments, to do so under a legal and orderly procedure. This matter should not be permitted again to be delayed until it is too late for action. Two Die When Fire Destroys Strange Dugout THE DALLES, Ore., Jan. 30 (UP) f ire destroyed a strange dugout "roothouse" near here yesterday taking two lives and seriously burning a third man. ' Pete Jackson, Indian, and a whlta man known only as "Harry" lost their lives when their shelter dug into the roots ot big tree burned. A third man, Ed Thomas, Indian, es caped by crawling through the flames to tha door of the hut. Thomas suffered burns about the face and hands. Tha fire started when the whit man built a roaring fire in the open top stove that heated the flimsy dugout. The flames spread rapidly, trapping the two men before they could escape, Thomas said.

Credence in recent inside talk along this line is apparently shared by Mr. Roosevelt. a a a FUNDS GIVEN NOTE: AFL's Bill Green dis closed in the lease-lend hearings that British unions have actual ly turned millions of pounds sterling over to the government. The union, he said, gave the British treasury 350,000 pounds without interest. Green did not speculate on the prospect of American unions do ing the same thing but some thing is likely to develop along this line soon. Such contributions would help to stave off inflation and the damage which runaway money does to a man on a salary. a FLYNN ACTS Ed Flynn, the .democratic chairman who was supposed to retire, is instead getting his fin gers on the democratic organiia tion. You never hear of Flynn like you did Jim Farley. Farley's hold on the national democratic machine was built on personal friendship lines. He knew every body. Flynn is a card-index man. He may not know the people but he knows their names and where they fit. Flynn made his Bronx organi zation superior even to Tam many by requiring everyone to fall in line to the supremacy of the organization. He is doing the same thing now nationally, and some of the democratic sen ators and congressmen are act ing as though he had given them each a hotfoot. They are accustomed to going their easy individual ways, siding with the administration when they choose and differing occasionally when they see fit. Flynn's book of rules does not allow for much differing. What specifically has fired their tootsies lately is Flynn's plan to handle patronage through regular democratic state organi zations instead of through the congressmen. This method of handing out Jobs over their heads has been tried in a few states in the past but not many. Mr. Flynn may soon find his feet on fire.

They could not do much to refute him on that par ticular point. Army and navy shares the view that Britain can not be invaded until Hitler ac quires mastery of British air, which seems impossible now; also that Britain cannot possibly invade the continent; therefore, the war has entered an apparent stalemate. Mind you this does not mean the army and navy share Lind bergh's disregard of the relative merits of the British and German causes. They are all-in pro-British. But his military analysis is irrefutable. Lindbergh's trouble is that he is a sincere believer in peace and a true neutral. He, like his father, has just declined to sac rifice his personal beliefs to fol low the popular will of the coun try in these respects. Like his father, also, he may have to await the end of the war for a fair appreciation of his position. FUNERAL NOTICE .

Is It posslblo tiint we are In lino to duplicate the fato of France and other European countries, for the lack of sturdy keen men, a Washington, or a Lincoln, to save our nation In this time of peril?
