RESOLUTION ON. CAP
ITAL PUNISHMENT

The following resolution was adopted
by the Mems Forum of the Upper Val
ley United Church:
AS American citizens the least we
we can do with capital punishment is
to vote pro or con. But as men of to-
morrow we cannot stop here. We must
strike at the cause of the curse that
death penalty is supposed to eliminate
The demand for the reestablishment
of capital punishment is prompted by
| the increase of crime. However. facts
and statistics show that death penalty
does not deter men from murder. Grave
crime has increased over 800 per cent
during the past three decades IN spite
of various penalties.
| What is more, records show that
! homicide has increased two and half
| times as rapidly IN states having capital
| punishment as contrasted with states
| that did not have it. We all know that
at the present there is vicious wave
of increasing crime that is doubtless a
natural byproduct of the war To stay
this wave of blood, people demand the
punishment of death.
The question is a deeper one than
capital punishment. 1t is question of
rapid and efficient justice instead of
severer penalty. We need to enforce
the laws we already have on the stat
ute books, which are ample If admin
istered with justice and without waste
of time. Playing with law labeled
Justice" is what invites crime. In
our own state penitentiary life SEN
tcnee means less than seven years.
Up to 1913 not a single "life-termer'
had died in prison. Where do they got
Men sentenced to death had their SEN
tences cummuted to life Imprisonment
and life imprisonment, through parole.
pardon and politics. became little more
than joke.
Too much of judicial procedure
smacks Of partialty favored with in
fluence and politics, plus coin. In this
way law ceases to be justice and it is
not to be wondered that people lose re-
spect for it andsdefy it. We toy with
our crimes till they become ancient
history. A LAWYER in public office
made this assertion: "We are not
asked to protect justice, but to protect
the law" Think of the case of Dr.
Crippen, who in 1911 murdered his
wife and was tried by the English
court. In four days from the day his
trial was begun ne was executed. NOW
place beside that some of the red tape
unravelled by our Court of Justice.
What is needed is the certainty of a
Just penalty, not severity. Let justice
be meted out impartially and without
loss of time and crime will decrease.
While we ask for certainty Of a just
punishment, we ask that the penalty
be fitted to the prisoner, not to an abb
stract legal code +; that the penalty be
adjusted to fit the criminal. not the
crime. We would not Prussianize by
making the state the end and man an
innocent tool. Give us justice and
crime will wane.
Why Kill the man? We call upon
those who love justice and righteous
law more than nominal legality TO
place the emphasis where it belongs.
Respectfully submitted,
A. j. Brunduist,
f. w. Rockhold.
w. o Benthin.

A. A. A. ASKS HOW
CANDIDATES STAND

The Anti. .Asiatic Association, organ
lied here for the purpose of preventing
alien land ownership and for working
fer a constitutional amendment that
will prevent the automatic citizenship
of children born of aliens that cannot
be naturalized. has sent circular let
ter to every Oregon candidate for con-
gressional or legislative office. The
letter follows:
This association was formed because
the japanese ownership of land IN
Hood River county is becoming an in
dication of what will gradually happen
in Oregon, as it has happened in Cali
fornia and Washington. The members
of this organization are vitally inter
ested in your attitude, as an aspiTant
for public office, upon the purposes OF
the association, and therefore respect
fully ask you whether or not you favor
these purposes.

Forest Fire Creates Scare

A forest fire, starting on the Upper
Valley place of Judge Blowers, where
diseased apple trees were being burned
broke bounds and was driven across
two miles Of brushland Sunday. The
burn created excitement and a messen-
ger summoned the men of the neigh.
borhood from church services. The
flames were controlled before serious
damage resulted.
To prevent an outbreak Sunday night
Judge Blowers placed guards around
the burn.
