debt* by saying, "We shall not have to cancel
them if we are realistic about providing ways
in which payment is possible thru the profits
arising from the rehabilitation of trade." And '
that is iust. another way of evasion.
Thus both party leaders dodge, while Borah
meets the issue with this:
"If the policies initiated at Lausanne are
carried forward, there will come a time when
it will be distinctly to the interest of the people
of the United States to reconsider again the
question of these debts. The debts due sre
just debts. There can be no reason therefore
for urging a reduction or cancellation other
than it would be to the interest of the people
of the United States to do so. Upon that
theory, and that alone, it seems to me, is the
subject open for discussion.
"The stakes are tremendous, delay is haz-
ardous. Sixty days of depression in the latter
part of 1932 will be more devastating than six
months in the latter part of 1930."
So the country knows what Borah thinks.
But it is more entitled to know what the
nominees think. The question is too vital to
be evaded, as It is being evaded, for reasons
of political expediency. "
Everyone who has spent even the slightest
amount of time on the subject knows that this
is a problem which must be dealt with if the
world is to regain its economic equilibrium;
that to deal with it is a matter of conference
with the other nations involved; that there is
Ifo solution, ready-made, at hand; that one
must bo worked out. And time is vital.
■Since the two great parties met in conven-
tion and phrased their platforms, the develop-
ments at Lausanne have occurred. They have
changed the whole picture. Yet from the two
high places to which we are justified in look-'
ing for leadership we have nothing but artful
generalities.
On August 11 Herbert Hoover will discuss'
the issue of the world crisis. Between now
and November he and Roosevelt will make
many .addresses.
It is unthinkable that, in light of Lausanne,
they will continue to skirt around the edges of
this, mighty problem. Let them speak.

Is about the same kind of music,
and has about the same effect on

It all goes back to a dispute
over land—rather worthless land,
which each country could get
along without, or which could
easily be divided between them.

Did not the Governor know on July 9 that
many of the present members of th* Legisla-
yture would be retired at the elections? .__
We do nothelieve the public is interested
in which particularTgroup of legislators acts
upon the salary question We do believe the
public is Interested in seeing reductions made
at the earliest possible date.
By failing to present the salary reduction
mensure to the special session of the Legisla-
ture in September, the Governor will postpone
the effective date of any reductions that might
be voted by the regular session in January for
two years.
Reductions that might be voted by the
special session- could become effective when
the now terms of offcials elected in Novem-
ber begin the first of next year.
The Governor's desire to relieve retiring
legislator* from responsibility for making sal-
ary reductions ignores the interests of the
people who are demanding reductions in gov-,
ernmentl expenses.
We belleve the Governor should reconsider
his decision not to present the salary question.
The cost of keeping the Legislature in session .
for the tonger period that would be required
would be small In comparison with the saving
to be effected thruoutthe state by starting
salary reductions in 1933 instead of in 1935.

The Governor Should Reconsider
(OVERNOR ROSS STERLING, in an inter-
U view with newspaper men on July 9, had
the following to say: ’
"With cotton selling at 5 cents, oats at 10
cents a busheand wheat at 25 cents a bushel
there is bilt one course open to the state
government and that is to reduce salaries and
opetrating expenses to conform with existing
conditions,".
The Governor was quoted yesterday in an
----Austin dispatch as follows: ‘ •
"At the primary August 27 a new Legis-
hature will have, been nominated. It will in-
elude a large number of new members and
many of the present menibers wijl not return.
"I would deem it unfair to ask .the retir-
ing members, after a new Legislature has been
chosen, coming fresh from the, people with a
, mandate of their will, to underthke to set up a
new policy with respect to readjustment of
existing public salaries or state institutions.
That properly, should be left, and will be left,
to the, people's newly elected Representatives
. , who will meet in regular session in January.”
. • .The governor’s change of front in less
than a month r time is ditfteult to understand.
■ On July'9 he' wds‘positive that a speetal
session of the iegislature scheduled for sSep-
tember should reduce salaries of public' offi-
cial-. The one course open to the govern-
ment, he aid than, was to bring salaries and
expenses down to conform to existing business

carried to the end. One of her last was the
endowment of Scripps College for Girls, a
successful experiment In personal education
after the mamner of the English college and
th'- opposite nt the factory idea of mass edu-
cation.
Thus ends a carger enobled by original
achievement and high purpose, beautiful in its
unselfish service. Robert F. Paine has -de-
serihed her best:
"Thru the long years, a quiet, delicate, at
periods almost solitary little woman disregard-
ing the mass of luxuries that wealth seeks and !
commands, modestly devoting one fortune after I
another to laying up imperishable treasures of I
service where thieves cannot creep in nor |

A RE you an outdoor sportsman
A. who like* the wobdi and wa-
ters?
Hunter or fisherman or yachts-
man, you must now pay tax to
Uncle Sam to help him balance
his budget under the new 1932
revenue law.
There is now a 10 percent sales
tax on firearms and all ammuni-
tion, a 10. per cent tax on fishing
equipment of all kinds (except
that used by commercial fisher-
men in the conduct of their busi-
ness.) If you ns* a boat more
than 28 feet long, you must now
pay a tax of so much per year for
the use of said boat; if you had
rather be economical and paddle
your, own canoe, you will find a
10 per cent federal tax on canoe
paddles.
Except for the tax on the use
of boats, all these taxes are manu-
facturers’ excise taxes which the
manufacturer adds to his sale
price and which sr* usually passed
on to the ultimate purchaser. The
annual license tax on boats is >10
on those of from 28 to 60 feet in
length, >40 on those from 60 to
100 feet, >100 from 100 to 150
T AUDABIE as it may have been thus to
Ea show loyalty to one's own place, some
sprite of sanity should have whispered to us
that there is a limit to all things, even the
size of-towns during prosperity. But, according
to th* average Chamber of Commerce man and
his first cousin, the luncheon-clubber, there
was no limit only the sky. And it, unfor-
tunately, has fallen.
We did not show intelligence in our efforts
to make substantial advance, for nothing is
permanent that is forever expanding. And we
have certainly suffered from an aggravated
case of municipal elephantiasis. .
We did not .top to wonder whether we
were making cities that would house reason-
ably healthy, happy people. We were intent
upon putting up something more imposing
than that in the neighboring county seat or a
finer skyscraper than any claimed by1 an,ad-
' Joining state. Bigger and bigger was the cry.

rNEN THOUSAND Inhabitants this year, fifteen
1 next year and a hundred thousand in a
decade. You might have imagined that our
main ide was to have America one vast, dead
level of apartment house/, garages and fill-
ing stations—a sort of glorified’realtor's sub-
division.
And now, here we are, with these desolate
rows, of empty buildings in every city, large
or small. And wheh prosperity return* will
we begin to chant the same old innocuous pep
songs, I wonder, or will we try to build cities
for human beings, to make of them places
where one mhy be young, may work, then
grow old amid cleanlines*, comfort, beauty
and peace!
