AUTO Thief TO WORK
OUT FINE IN PRISON

A fine of $50 was imposed upon Har
old Walsh, with the privilege of paying
or working it out by staying in the
county Jail at the rate of So a day
for stealing the Ford of Edward Tooker
at the state fair last Thursday and
driving it to Portland.
Frank Hesse, a boy of 15 who looks
much younger, and who was under the
influence of the older man Walsh, was
allowed to go home to his mother at
Tacoma.
Both boys pleaded guilty of taking.
the car. The young man and boyish
looking boy simply said he wanted to-
get home and thatthe didn t intend to
take the car any further than Portland.
Walsh, who is more than 81 years old
pleaded guilty, saYing he cameato Sar
lem and could find no work. That he
tried to board train for Portland, but
was kicked off. That this was the first
time he had been in any serious trou-
bic and that he had been away from
the farm near Centralia only three
weeks.
Judge Unruh, while not giving the
older youth heavy sentence, said
that it was the parole system that had
led many young men to commit
crime, knowing he would likely get
out of it at the worst, be sentenced and
then paroled. However, as there were
many extenuating circumstances in
connection with this case no heavy
punishment was inflicted.

POLITICS ABOVE PEACE.

HERBERT HOOVER, the best authority on political,
economic and industrial conditions in Europe knows
whereof he speaks when he describes the dangers that
confront the world as follows:
what the future has right to demand from us in
further economic support is not yet clear; but it is at
least certain that if the world cannot quickly secure the
settlement of peace and safeguards for the future through
the League the whole Of two great nterventons in
Europe will have gone for nothing and the menace of re-
action will again return against upon the wings of
>haos"
Partsanship and politics however are of much great
consequence in the opinion Of the senate than the fate
of the world What difference if chaos returns Europe
and the A. E. Fs work be nulifed if the votes of the
hyphens can be secured in the 1920 election?
The senate is the principal obstacle to peace and the
restoration Of normal conditions If it rejects the treaty.
Imperialism will return to Europe and the kaiser again
reign in Berlin. #4
