It will remain to be seen whether there la the same amount of public in terest in the tragic allatr. It took violence to the pouil oi death to lilt the affair from Die drab records of the courts and Juvenile offices to the headlines. But now that the thing has hap pened an entirely new set of prin ciples, morals and ethics are con cerned. The original crime for which the youth was sentenced has nothing to do with the present case. He was, admittedly, on the loose, liv ing In a wild age, and lost his balance, got into serious trouble and landed In prison. That is in the past. But mat we snouia conaone mur der within prison walls is some thing else again. No amount of edi torial writing on the subject will help. We realize that. So do all right thinking people. But perhaps a few questions planted In the public mind could do something to prevent other -AUGHT IrwTW ROUNDS -ttt - It would be good If somebody were to ta-e mis ana write ii on the wall for whoever has his mit on the Johnson bar of the Taft "steam roller." That's getting the cart before the horse, and here's what we're thinking. We're thinking back to the primary election and speci fically to the contest between Sam Coon and Cues French for the Republican nomination for U.S. representative for this district. Coon is a relative newcomer to politics; he a good looking and easy to meet and listen to: those who know him say that he's honest and capable. French is a veteran of state po litical wars; he's a man who has said "no" with more reason and effectiveness and finality on more things than any other state legis lator; he's blunt, and the women listening him on the radio said he (ounded grult and opinions tea. Coon got the votes. We're also thinking of Monday night's contest between Ernie Tay lor and Nelson Reed for election to the KUHS board. Taylor is a complete newcomer even to local school politics: he's good looking and makes a fine public appearance; those who know him say that he is thoroughly re sponsible and is a very capable in dividual. Reed is a veteran of local school politics;- he's a man who has said "no" with more reason and effec tiveness and finality than any oth er school board member: he's blunt and the women who have heard him on the radio say that he is sn-uff and opinionated. Taylor got the votes. We supported the two losers in these eases, but that's not the point The point is that, if you want to pick a winner from two good men In a race, you'd better pick the man whom the teenagers would refer to as "smooth doggish" rather than the ornery old devil who has been saying for years that there ain't no Santy Claus. The point is that people want a change. The veterans are tarred with a brush of "politics" and they're marked with the disappoint ments of the past.

Why. if the board of prison of' flcials had decided to transfer the youth to the Woodburn training school, was he sent to the prison in the first place? Why is the public kept in a con stant state of apathy regarding conditions m our penal institutions? when will something be done? Speaking for this paper I cer tainly don't propose to set myself, or uie newspaper, up as an au thorny. But I do contend that there is a problem here which will bear lookuig into by public spirited per sons everywnere. As with everything else, finances are the root oi tne trouble.

Robert Taft Is a veteran of poli tics. There are some who still re member his father's clashes with the popular Teddy Roosevelt. Bob Taft is the man who has sounded the ineffective "no" of the minori ty party in congress. His role has had to be the negative one of leader of the opposition. General Eisenhower is a complete newcomer to politics. He has a rea dy, wide grin that is infectuous. He has a record of great lnteanty and great administrative ability. And get mis, it s important our beautiful switchboard operator says that on the radio Ike sofmds just like Clark Gable!! Our hope is that the backers of Taft and Eisenhower will not pro duce a rhubarb which will over shadow the general feeling for change on the grand scale. Remember Kefauver. Estes Kefauver Is a relative new comer to national politics. He was the brave knight at the head of senate committee investigating po litical corruption (like Truman, re member?) And net this, it s important those who have seen and heard him. in person or on television. say that he s a wonoenui oiena oi Jimmy Stewart and Lil Abner the red-blooded American boy.

Extortion Charge Dropped PORTLAND Wl The charge that City Detective Micheal O' Leary tried to extort $10,000 from an accused abortionist, was dis missed here Tuesday. O'Leary was accused of trying to get the money from Mrs. Ruth Barnett, a Portland naturopath, now under indictment on a charge oi manslaughter by abortion. Accused along with O'Leary was another city detective. William L. Brian, who won acquittal. Brian still must face trial on another ex tortion attempt charge. Wedgewood Deluxe hand rubbed mahoq.

I After the man lies down and dies. his house stands and remembers. Sometimes strangers take over the house, and the man who built it is forgotten. It has been the other way with Ernie Pyle. Thousands of strangers have passed -through tne small refuge from his wanderings. But the more who come, the more Ernie Pyle is remembered. Ernie at his death passed out of the stream of the world's news. But he has never lost his pe culiar hold on the American heart. In death he still gives a feeling of quiet comfort to those who visit the little spot out of all the world he picked as his anchor against life's disaster. He has a perfect memorial. His simple white clapboard cottage ith the white picket lence around it surely a tribute to his love of bis Indiana upbringing Is now city library. It has ten thousand books. The garage that Ernie turned into a guest room is about to be con verted into a children's reading room. I think Ernie, who had a lot of trouble but no children to give him the trouble that rewards, would like that. In his own childhood be didnt have so nice a place to go and read. Ernie and "that girl" his wife.

Why did be choose Aiouquerque as his traveler s rest? In a piece explaining why, he mentioned as another loved place. Honolulu, where he Is buried among the doughboys whose death he shared. But in life he gave this explana tion for settling here: "Our front yard stretches as far as you can see. Mt. Taylor, 65 miles away, is like a framed pic ture in our front window." He mentioned also the friendli ness here, the vastness. the rab bits that came out every evening, the quail on his lawn every morn ing, the meadow larks across the unpaved road that said things like "your face is awfully "pretty." and "here comes the preacher."

I am sure, would prefer them to his moun tain view. Most of those who come to his former home today are children, eager for the dreams that books bring. But also some 10.000 adult visi tors have come to see the unpre tentious home that Ernie built. It has little souvenirs of him his sunglasses, a Jo Davidson bust of his likeness, the dust goggles he wore in Tunisia. But for some inexplicable reason the thing that stirs visitors most is the old ten-; allon cowboy hat he wore around the country in the days before he knew war. "Most of the visitors are either boys who served overseas with Ernie or the parents of soldiers," said the nice, freckle-faced librar ian. Mrs. Marian Flynn. "But they come from all over the world. And, I don't know why, it is the empty hat that affects them emotionally. They see it and start to cry. I never met Ernie in mj life, but I feel like I know him."

The touring Democratic presi dential aspirant made It clear to a capacity crowd of 600 at a Pierce County Jefferson-Jackson Day din ner that he aligns himself com pletely with Mr. Truman's domestic and (oreign programs. Harriman. the nation's mutual security, director, said his party has a "phony majority In Congress of men masquerading at Demo crats." He called lor their ouster, along with Republicans opposed to the "Fair Deal" program. Hr had a kind word lor Dwlght D. Eisenhower as a soldier but said when the five-star general em braced the Republican parly "he became one of them." Harriman later referred scathingly to Repub licans as "grim old pessimists." In an appeal for a big Demo cratic turnout at the polls. Harri man also told his audience thai "those who say Senator Taft will be easy to beat don't understand the American political scene." He said that by this he meant Demo crats could not afford to become complacent. Walsh Says He Backs Ike COOS BAY iifl William E. Walsh, member of the national Republican convention credentials committee, said Tuesday he will vote to seat delegations favorable to Gen. Elsenhower. "If I have not been misinformed about the details of the controversies." "If I find that Eisenhower people have not told me the truth, I'll switch In a minute." the Coos Bay attorney and state senator said. Walsh leaves soon for Chicago, site of the national convention. The credentials committee will be called upon to determine which of several disputed delegations will be seated. One of the foremost of these Is the Texas delegations, which were named by two separ ate groups. One of these favors Gen. Eisenhower, the other Sen.

The program la a milestone In Europe, aflaira because II la a frank recognition by the people, of Western Europe that their econo mies are closely entwined and will probably work more effectively If actually Integrated. The Schuman plan Is an admis sion that the artificiality of political borders in a continent so narrowly circumscribed geographically can only do harm to the living standards and security of Uie peoples affected. Rare courage and far-sightedness were required of Western Europe's statesmen to push the plan to final adoption. They had lo buck not Oh. . fi. Not bcuiu a dentist, the writer of this column has said little about the care of the teeth. But the scope of the problem Is enop inou.i. s It is said that more than 33 mil ion newly-decayed teeth develop each year among the 38 million children between t and 18 years of age In the united states. It Is also claimed that 1J out of 100 grownups have artificial teeth, and another 20 out of the 100 should have them. Everyone can help to reduce tooth decay. One measure which Is particularly Important for chil dren la the maintenance ol a good diet, which contains adequata amounts of milk and milk prod ucts, fruits, vegetables, cereala, eggs, lean meat, poultry, fish and whole grain bread. In fact, anything which aids the body to keep in good health. In cluding diet, also apparently helps to prevent hootn decay. Mouth cleanliness Is one of the most important measures. Food particles readily lodge In the teeth, where tney decay rapiaiy. and in doing so Injure the hard surfaces ol me teem. The , moat desirable practice Is to brush the teeth after each meal, but if thla can't be done, rinsing the mouth carefully would help some. Those grownups who do not al ready know It, should ba Instruc ted by their dentists aa to Just how their teeth should be brushed, and children should receive the aame Instruction as early in life as possible. In some cases, too, dental floss can be used between the teeth to clean out food particles, but In struction in this, too, ts desirable In order to avoid injuring the gums.
