To the best of my knowledge I
got through the day yesterday
without commenting on the weath
er. But I wouldn't even try to tell
you how many comments I heard
from other people.
It's a disease. Red and I found
that we had mentioned it three
limes in the space of less than ten
minutes tills morning.
I'll now mention Spring in print:
It stinks!
On the good side of the ledger
was the little story yesterday from
Plush. Plush is a town of some
magnitude. It has a population
varying from five to twenty five.
It lies in the high desert north
and east of Lakevlew, reached
either by a cutoff through a rough,
stony expanse of sheep grase or
bv a winding high country road
coming up from Adel. Well known
to all Hart mountaineers as a busy
and bustling water hole during the
annual trek the town otherwise
slumbers peacefully on surrounded
by color, dust, sagebrush, jackrab
bits, cowboys, sheepherders, ranch
ers and the most gorgeous sunsets
in Oregon.
Little 'ole Plush came through In
ajjfrig way, however, for the March
orHmes. The citisens turned over
$500 to the fund in Lakevlew. And
they were figuring on a basis of
their present population which
was 15 adults.
Hats off to Plush. If Klamath
Falls or Portland or Eugene do-,
nated the same average we'd have
a polio hospital in every hamlet in
the state.
There Is some good in the world
after all. Did you ever stop to
think that the little Audrey jokes
are a thing of the past? The ones
where Little Audrey lust laughed
and laughed and laughed? And
also the ones about the little mor
on. Mankind has made some pro
gress. Since the dark ages of
knock-knock we've- progressed to
the shaecrv doe story. Perhaps the
next generation will have some
thing to live for.
There is also bad In the world.
The lady Elks held their annual
crab feed Thursday night.
And vou could sure tell It. Just
by taking a look at the parking
lot.
Cars were Jammed in like Jack
straws. All the entrances were
blocked at one time.
Apparently they just drove in as
far as the car Would go and got
out and left the heap standing
there.
Far be it from me to criticize
women. I think they are wonder
ful. And usually just as competent
as men at driving. Sometimes bet--ter.
But when it comes to parking
they can't keep up.
More bad In the world comes
from a Washington dispatch. The
government announces that It is

Notice to basketball fans: r
It's later than you think. Just
one week from tonight the high
school basketball championship of
Oregon will be decided. Next Wed

If you're muttering about going
up to see the boys win the title,

Citizens Get
Lockup Hi
SALEM Wl William C. Ryan,
supervisor of state institutions, sug
gested Friday that to prevent car
thefts, residents of Woodburn
should lock their cars.
Philip F. Branson, president of
the Woodburn Junior Chamber
of Commerce, wrote to Ryan re
cently and asked that inmates of
the State Training School for Boys
be locked up more securely. He
said the boys were escaping and
stealing cars.
Ryan replied that runaways from
the school were only 4.2 per cent
of its population last year. In 1947,
11.8 per cent ran away. He said
escapees stole 10 cars in the past
14 months. Seven of these had keys
in the Ignition locks.
The chamber said the school's
honor system was responsible for
many of the runaways. Ryan de
nied this.
"Not a single runaway from the
campus has occurred as a result of
the honor system," he said.
Too Much Water

Northwest power shortage for sev

The federal boys go ahead to ex
plain that they will release each

"expected to be made available for

interests under arrangements with

Isn't that just dandy I
I suPDOse Wyoming has no min

maybe the government says the
people of Wyoming are so incom
petent and addlepated that they
can't handle their own affairs.
And note that the official an
nouncement said that if deposits
were found it was "expected" that
the private interests might get a
crack at them. There is a world
of difference between "expecieo.

NEW YORK I The sex crim
inal is the most hated member of
society.
But how can you deal with him?
Heavy legal penalties do not deter
him. And in any case, if he ex
plodes in violence, punishing him
won't remove the horrifying ex
perience from his victim's memory
or restore her to life, where he
has killed in lust.
William T. Whalen. retired New
York city chief of detectives, be
lieves the answer is this:
Anyone involved in any type of
sexual crime, no matter how mi
nor, should be given a psychiatric
examination or 'bugged,' as we
call it. He should then be forced to
take the institutional or clinical
care he needs.
"Most of them aren't ordinary
criminals. They have sick minds."
Thirty-three years of dealing
with sex criminals has convinced
the veteran ex-cop that present sys
tems for handling them ate hone-
less, because little Is done to pre
vent them from developing from
minor offenders into major offend
ers.
The cublic has little rrallntinn
how widespread minor sex offenses
are. The two commonest forms are
window-peeping and the molesta
tion of women in crowded buses
ana suoways.
"We have more police calls about
peepers than anything else." Wh.
len said.
As to subwav molesters, there
are thousands of cases the police
never hear about. Women are
partly to blame. If someone annoys
them, all they have to do is slap
him in the face with their hand-
oag. There are plenty of men
about to come to their help."
Many People regard neeoers and
molesters as detestable but com
paratively harmless- thrill-seekers.
"They aren't," said Whalen grim
ly. "They follow a pattern. Most

sex crimes nave a ponce record oi

A European armv with German
units participating Is not yet a
lealtty. But it has advanced a sig
nificant step closer to that stage
with the formal endorsement of
the plan by the North Atlantic Trea
ty Organization in Lisbon.
The idea of a six-nation armv
that would Include Western Ger
many was born in France. Ne
gotiations looking forward Its crea
tion began last summer, and pro
ceeded fairly smoothly for several
monins. nui men serious snags de
veloped in both Germany and
France.
In Oermanv. the difficulty Is that
the Bonn government demands
conditions which add up to politi
cal equality and greater independ
ence.
The Germans, vanquished though
they were In World War II. see
the paradox in their being asked
to contnDute to tne deierue oi iree
Europe without sharing equally in
us privileges.
There may be audacity, even ar
rogance, in a defeated nation's
boldly calling for equal status a
mere six and a half years since it
fell in the dust. But there is also
an inexorable logic in it. How can
we convince tne uermans tnat
they should be our "partners" in
military matters only?
As fcr France, the problem is
simply fear of ft rearmed Ger
many. Torn by this fear and the
counter-balancing necessity to have
German strength thrown Into the
scales against communism, the
French devised the Pleven plan
for a European army.
ULTIMATE UNITY
On its face, this appears a far
seeing gesture aimed at the ulti
mate unity of Europe. But from
the French viewpoint It is primar
ily a compromise between fear and
reality. It is a way of gaining the
German strength for the free na
tions without exposing France to
the dangers of an Independent Ger
man military force operating un
der its own general stati.
This inherent contraditlon in the
French attitude has become In
creasingly apDarcnt In recent
months, The French National As
sembly now has approved the Eu
ropean army with German ele
ments, but not without conditions
that would gravely slow down the
nrosram.

minor offenses."
But at present In New York
the minor offenders can only be
charged with disorderly conduct,
given a small fine or a short time
in Jail "even though they are
picked up a thousand times." They
can't be compelled to take a men
tal examination.
And when one goes on to commit
a sex murder he gives police the
hardest possible type of crime to
solve.
"There is no motive for the
crime that can be traced from the
victim's own background," ex
plained Whalen. "The holdup man
cases his Job In advance. The sex
murderer usually doesn't He kills
by Impulse."
Whalen recently served as tech
nical advisor for "The Sniper," a
Columbia Pictures film marking
one of the first efforts by Holly
wood to deal with the problem on
a sociological basts.
It tells the story of a perverted
youth who kills several women
with a carbine but who. before go
ing berserk, tries vainly to bring
his deteriorating mental condition
to the attention of a young hospital
Interne, too busy to de il with him.
"Compulsory psychlitrlc exam
inations may show which offenders
art potentially dangeroi s and need
to be put away and wl'lch can be
put back on the right jack," aald
Whalen.
"As It Is now we hive ?io real
barometer to see what can be done
with these people."
His advice to women Who are
suddenly confronted by a violent
sex criminal is this:
"Scream. A woman's best de
fense is a scream. As a rule, they
are easily frightened off, and 89
times out of 100 they'll run.
"But don't fight back or try to
hold on to a man like that to keep
him from escaping. Rape or at
tempted rape carries a long prison
term, and a man will kill to keep
from that."
