Smother th Crime) At
It Source.
A WEEK at excitement to the
world ot tandltry hai come
to a cloee with a fitting climax.
Seven men hare been conTlcted
1. connection with the Brtcnel
kidnaping at Oklahoma City. Oth
ers haTO been arrested and await
to" 111 the start of their hearings.
Successful prosecution ot kid
napers in this instance reassures
a nation tilled with sensational
crime. It means the government
true to the promisee ot the "new
deal." ia determined to expeU the
gangster and release the country
from tribute.
Sending kidnapers and gang
sters to penitentiaries, however,
(alia to uncover the source ot the
crime. It establishes an example
sufficiently strong to create tear
to the underworld but It doesn't
eliminate this underworld.
Since the government has
taken a hand to all manners ot
things heretofore exclusive func
tions of the state and local gov
ernments, let it now include re
form. Let aa hope the federal
agent will continue to cooperate
with other forces ot order to im
prove conditions to the popula
tion centers. Crime can only be
mothered at Its source.
The Drink That Cured
the Depression?
LIQUOB has been e chief
moral aia to America for
more than a decade. Now it Is
presented in the character of
virtue, but, unlike virtue. It
bears its rewards.
The state ot Oregon baa esti
mated its relief needs at eight
million dollars for the next fif
teen months. Five millions must
be raised by the people of Ore
gon themselves and the remans
ing three mlion- will be appro
priated by the federal govern
ment.-
Tbe governor's special relief
committee of thirty-two men se
lected from all parts ot the
state and all occupations baa rec
ommended a tax on liquor esti
mated to bring in fifty per cent
ot the necessary five million
dollars. That will Include a levy
on hard liquors, wlnea and beer.
This report will be delivered
to the extra legislative session
expected late this month.
Had not repeal gained such a
atrong bold to the country, rais
ing funds for relief and re-employment
would have been diffi
cult. Indeed. Thirty-one states
have accepted the anti-prohibition
amendment and by the end
ot the first week In November
the required thirty-six for rati
fication will be In the fold.
It will be necessary for Ore
gon to cousume considerable
liquor to bring the state two
and a half million dollars. It's
one of those paradoxes ot our
national temperament. First we
drink; then we don't drink. And
then, at last, we decide to drink
ourselves out ot the depression.
Sample of Society
in A. D. 1933.
GUESSING about what the his
torians of the future are go
ing to put Into their text-books Is
a futile and profitless pastime,
ordinarily. But It seems a pret
ty sate bet that they will find at
least a couple of paragraphs for
that kidnaping trial now going
ee to Oklahoma City.
More than any other criminal
trial In years, perhaps, this case
li symbolic ot the present era.
Not since Al Capone was sent to
prison tor failing to pay bis In
come tax has there been a court-
room scene that spoke so elo
quently ot the kind of society we
have put together to modern
America.
For the trial does not simply I
represent an effort by the courts
to fix the responsibility tor a
peculiarly Insolent crime. It is
a test whether the courts can even
make such an effort in the first
place; whether society's ability
to Inquire Into the acta ot the un
derworld la to be at the mercy ot
the underworld's own defiance.
Consider the situation tor a
moment.
To begin with, we hart a vici
ous attempt to extort a Urge sum
ot money from a wealthy man a
crime whose mere occurrence In
dicates a crack la the fabrlo ot
society.
Then the man suspected ot
having cooked ap this crime is
caught. He forces his way out
ot one ot the strongest Jails to
the land, la caught again, and
finally comes to trial.
At his trial the authorltlea feel
It necessary to turn the court Into
a veritable armed camp. The
room Is guarded by machine guns,
riflemen patrol the corridors, of
ficers to court are ordered to
open tire on the chief defendant
it anything auspicious happens.
Meanwhile the underworld puts
pressure on the state's witnesses.
Written threats of death are re
ceived. One witness is bluntly
asked, "Are you fool enough to
think the government can protect
you forever?" The chief defend
ant makes "sinister asides" when
ever the chief prosecutor rises to
speak.
Now all at this simply means
that there are desperadoes In this
land whose power is almost as
great aa that ot organised society
Itself. The mere Usk ot bringing
them to trial taxea society's re
source) to the utmost. The whole
story ot the trial will tell future
students volumes about American
lite to the year 1931.
Others May Follow.
ONE way ot getting a line on
the things our government is
doing these daya la to find out
now tney look to people In other
lands. It 1( rather instructive to
note that the Trades and Labor
congress of Canada, for Instance,
haa unanimously Indorsed the
NRA program In the United
States and has urged the adoption
ot a similar plan tor Canada.
A few day. before this happen
ed, the Trade Union congress ot
England passed a resolution call
ing upon the British government
to adopt similar measures, the
South African parliament la con
sidering Its own NRA plan.
The NRA. ot course. Is not a
cure-all. and It has handed us
some problems which will prob
ably keep us busy for a long time.
But foreigners find that It is a
program of vast promise, and
they would like to copy It them
selves. The tact speaks volumes
for the Impression which the
campaign Is making on disinter
ested observers.

The Inside Story From

By PAUL MALLON
Copyright. lSs, by Paul Mellon
WASHINGTON, 8ept. 30 Jim
Watson's stuck on the NKA
created a rumpus around the re
publican headquarters or what
Is left ot It here.
The boys In the ranks rushed
In or telephoned to find out it
the noted U. O. PT evangelist's
views were going to be party
policy. What scared them most
was the fact that Mr. , Hoover
came out ot retirement Just
prior to the time Watson spoke.
Also that Messrs. Hoover and
Wauon ataged their reappear
ance to the national arena at
tbe same point Chicago.
It looked to the outsider like
collusion.
e e
HVRI.KY
Nothing could be further from
the facts.
Messrs. Hoover and Watson
would have raised their noses at
each other It they had met on
Michigan boulevard. They do
not got along on the inside or
out.
Both appeared to Chicago
strictly on their owu.
However, arraugemeuts were
made so there would be no pos
sible misinterpretation ot the
Watson speech.
That very night, Pat Hurley,
the ex-secretary ot war, grasped
the microphone in a national
broadcast to praise the NRA.-
MOTIVES
You can readily see where
that leaves the republican party
as a party. It Is cooperating
fully with the president, giving
him every chance. Its patriotism
Is wholehearted.
At the same time some of its
leaders are getting ready to
jump.
That la where Watson fits In.
He is a fine old politician with
out a job and looking for one.
The chairmanship ot the national
committee Is probably beyond bis
reach. However. Senator Arthur
Robinson la up for re-election In
Indiana next year. Also a con
gressman must be elected from
Watson's home district The
latter job looks especially Invit
ing to Watson's friends.
Meanwhile he can make him
self available by placing him
self in front of the NKA op
position. That Is his best chance.
RETROSPECT
The republican politicians from
far and near all agree privately
now that Mr. Hoover Is through.
Some talked with him at Palo
Alto. Their view could be sum
marised as follows:
Mr. Hoover realises the coun
try has gone on to new Ideas,
new ways of national thought.
He agrees that It probably will
not get back to his Ideals In his
lifetime. He Is not ready to
compromise with his principles.
He still believes they are best.
Therefore he considers that the
thing tor him to do la to keep
silent.
That la tbe most authentic
possible report on that subject
and it is undoubtedly correct.
For these reasons and others
tbe politicians believe Mr. Hoo
ver will not be Influential In the
reorganization of the party either
In a financial way or otherwise.
They are sure bis Chicago trip
was nothing more than a pleasant
outing of an elder statesman.
AXGEI.S
Murder will out.
The identity ot the angel who
has been paying the salary ot J.
C. O'Lougblln at the republican
national committee could not be
a secret forever.
Insiders have learned at last
that the angel is multinominous.
Chairman Saunders solicits the
new wealthy republicans there
are left, each to contribute
O'Loughlin's salary for a month.
At least that system has been
followed since there was so much
publicity about the matter. The
idea is to prevent anyone from
saying that any one man Is pay
ing O'Loughlin's freight.
Those who are supposed to
have contributed so tar Include:
You Bums!"

Mr, Roosevelt and bis advisers
are becoming highly nervous
about the flop of the publle
worka program.
The Inside whispers are that
they are getting around to the
point where they may let down
the hara and put the money out
without cautloua consideration.
That la the only way they can
put any large number to work
In the building trade before
next aprlng.
We did It to war time. It w
had stopped to worry then about
whether someone was going to
get graft out of a proposition we
would still be preparing for that
war.
The only question Is whether
looseness would be justifiable
TAMMANY .
Postmaiter General Farley'
friends hint he had plenty of
acea In his sleeve when he sat
in on that New York mayoralty
game.
One was the positive belief
that he could get Mayor O'Brien
out ot the race It he could get
McKee In. His theory was that
the rank and file In Tammany
would rather drop O'Brien and
support McKee than take a
chance on a republican getting
in.
At least It would preserve
some of the Tammany patronage
and their city contractors.
NOTES
The bottom dropped out of the
NKA during General Johnson's
absence. Virtually nothing could
be done until he returned be
cause tbe organisation la so
tightly woven around his pres
ence. His new assistant admin
istrator, Robert W. Lea. Is fit
ting Into the picture much bet
ter than Catea did.
A salesman haa been going
around office buildings here ask
ing people to rent safety deposit
boxes in Canada. The Idea Is
that you can hoard your gold
up there. That la too tar away
for those who like gold that
well.
The American banker haa dug
up the fact that the decrease In
postal savings did nqt help the
banks. The decrease appears to
bave been due to postal savings
depositors converting their de
posits into postal savlugs bonds
which pay slightly more interest.
The 115,000 fee which Bas-
com Slemp received In the ahlp-
plng board deal was small com
pared to some he received in
law practice here. He had big
clients and he made them pay,

publican, September, 1WUS
First in the field against tbe
prohibitionists who are planning
to make Oregon dry next year
are the hotel owners and keepers.
The hotel keepers of the state
bare formed an association now
and through this orgsnlzatlon
tbey are determined to put up
tbe fight ot their lives against
the campaign to make Oregon
dry. The life of tbe hotel busi
ness in the state depends, they
say, upon the success of the hotel
men. and for this reason they
will leave no stone unturned to
keep Oregon wet.

school, J. A. Maddox and Jos.

Telling the
Editor
MAUN. Ore., (To The Editor)
A abort time ago I wrote you
mentioning the great number of
similarities In tbe acts and state
ments ot Mayor Mahoney in re
gard to hla uttempt lo acquire
the water rights belonging to
and so vitally necessary for the
preservation of the Klamath Ir
rigation project, with the acta
and statementa ot the California
Oregon Power company when
that company wa making a
similar attempt.
Add coincidences. I now note
tbe mayor Is reported as saying
that If he Is granted the water
rlghla ot the Klamath river he
will "(lie the necessary waivers
tor the protection ot the Ir
rlgatlonlsts." Does the msyor know that the
Oregon state engineer once grant
ed Copco a permit to take water
from Link river after requiring
that company to sign and file a
waiver In favor ot agriculture
and that upon learning that the
permit had thus been grsnted
the attorney-general ot Oregon
immediately compelled the atste
engineer to revoke the permit,
saying In his decision, among
other things, that the waiver
was ot absolutely no value, and,
further, that no waiver could he
written that would have any
value In law 7
It the mayor does not know
this he ought to know It.
Again I say that every act of
tbe mayor aud every atatement
he bas made regarding tbe water
rlghta tor municipal power de
velopment in Kliynath is evidence
that he either does not know
or does not care what effect his
acts will have on the property
rallies and agrlrultural produc
tion of tbe county: and I eay
further now that the chain of
simllarlllee between the mayor'
statementa and those of Copro Is
o complete that It call to mind
the quotation "The voice la
Jacob' voice but the band are
the hands of Exau."
This quotation refers to an
other deceitful "deal" whereby
valuable property rights were ex
changed for a mesa of pottage.
The Irrigated land ownera of
Klamath and adjacent Slsklyon
and Modoc counties hsve no In
tention of seeing their property
values exchanged for a mess of
