(Signed) Wallis." This is just the formal step preliminary to the filing of the complaint.

I i The evidence that Mr. Sipipson, "Dear was seen in bed with; a female not his wife, duly testified to by the hotel attaches, is not to be (taken as anything else than further stage play. Under the English law the only ground for divorce is adultery and the stopping overnight at a hotel with a woman not his wife is taken as proof of adultery. So where both parties agree to a divorce, one has to go through this performance with some woman, and there are those who for a consideration will play the part of the "other to provide the wife with the necessary evidence. The; bedroom scene is something like.

a conventional movie bedroom farce, the episode lasting only long enough for the witnesses to observe the pair and be ablejtb identify them afterwards, which in the Simpson case Was done Mr. Simpson is merely playing the role of -gentleman, getting out of the way; for his wife's stepping perhaps to the throne of queen of England.

They were interrupted by! The IVesIdent's Speech ii president Kooserelt 8 re election were less possible than it seems to bo today, his speech night might be excused on the ground a in politics every means Justifies i the end. The re- punucan campaign has been characterized by imprecision, bit- lernessand methods of pres- Daxatij TkompMs sure of which the best that can bo said js that they were resorted to because the opposition, had, from the start to work uphill, against a powerfully entrenched advertsary with potent pressure weapons of his own. Bat the president did not have to use such methods, and until his Madison Square Garden speech It Is fair to say that whether one agrees or not with all or part ot his policies, to personally had conducted his campaign with a min imum of trickery and the maxi mum ot good humor an geniality.

The Madison Square Garden speech was not good-tempered, it was not tolerant. It was not fair, it was not uplifting, it was not even revolutionary. It showed anger, vindlctlTleness, and a lack ot poise which was disturbing. Worst ot all, it was not in the least constructive. In spite ot the numerous' references to i internal and external poaee.

it could but serve to confirm the worst fears of those who believe that the president is intent on substituting himself and his own ideas, his own policies and his mind of establishing a personal dictatorship on the fascist or communist model, but it seems now quite certain that the president baa worked himself up to the point where he believes, that a mystical compact exists between him personally and the American people, and that the various branches of state and federal government are to be used or circumvented according to whether they work or not within the spirit of that compact. This attitude of mind will not engender peace. This column does not doubt the sincerity of the president when he says that the people and himself (you and I) feel that not everything is perfect in this democracy of ours and that there is room tor reform. There is. indeed, room tor, reform, and the great weakness of the republican campaign has been that it has failed to mobilize the vital spirit, of evolution which is the breath ot every living democracy.

But this column is not prepared to admit that the people ot this country can bo either frightened or bullied into progress and social Teform, on faith in a and on nothing else. iMp-'; 1 i -p. L'. If Mr. Roosevelt wins It will be because he is offering leadership and it is a fact that all the nations of the world want leadership today.

They want it so much that some of them hare given up everything else tor it. Bat as long as a people is free that leadership must depend upon deeds which convince and arguments which persuade. If there is a world-wide struggle between democracy and dictatorship, democracy will not save itself by repeating indefinitely that it is the most perfect form of government, because it is the one that can indulge in political lalssex fair and social inaction. The whole problem of democracy is not to remain still, resting on a revolution ot 150 years ago. The problem of democray is to remain alive, and the problem of democratic government is dual: (crystallxe the aspiations ot the and (to devise methods by jsrhlch these aspiration can be made practicable).

But the most dangerous of all tendencies in a democracy is to incorporate these aspirations in a single personality, or to repose in any one the power to express them in practice. 1 The demand ot leadership, for progress, for reconstruction. Is so strong that if Mr. Landon is elected he, too, will take it Into account. The country will not rest, whatever happens, until definition ot its alms, of its ideals, and of its fundamental creeds finds expression.

This is not merely a matter of legislation and methods. It is a moral question, and a very deep one. It the new deal was not copyrighted- and, especially, if there had BEEN a new deal in the last four years the problem would not now arise whether a new deal is, or is not, wanted now. There have been times when one has sensed in the president the consciousness of re-estimated moral and social values re-estimation which is Jthe most -vital part of our spiritual and intellectual life, and which is obvious everywhere, in the universities, among the common people, among business managers, sad In: the minds of all who think. But at other times the president has given the Impression that be did not know whore he was going or where he wanted to go, and It has been 'impossible to guess whether the reforms he suggested and the speeches he made were inspired by In the Infancy of possibilities.

But. as indicated, the task was drawing to a close, and city war rants came to, par soon after the McKinley victory. 1 it And a feeling of confidence came ore the United States, as Indicated by the article in this column on Sunday.) At the final meeting of the Sa lem Y.M.C.A. workers for the coming year's budget, which was a cheerful one. it was suggested that Salem ought to hare a 000 movement; an organized effort to secure 40,000 population.

i This was countered by the Idea that this Ought to be a movement for 80,090 population, because Salem NOW HAS 40,000 people. It was metnt that what census men call the metropolitan district ot Salem has 40.000. I I. Now, the writer asks the floor for a motion that a hundred thousand club ibe organized, in case of a-Landon landslide today. And he begs the reader to consider.

the! figures that follow. Ha proof of the fact that the metropolitan district of Salem NOW has 40,000 people: Mi The 1130 census showed 26, -2 OS people in the city limits of Salem. That included the state hospital and penitentiary, but not the Falrvlew home, Industrial school for girls, state school for the deaf; many state employees who for census purposes are enumerated elsewhere, besides those in our university, colleges, Suburban censusu districts outside thef city limites (for 1930) follow: least Salem, 60S; Engle-wood. gtl; Fairgrounds district, 1.248; Cringle (including Fair-view home, Salem Heights.) 1,12 West Salem district. iChemawa.

1.051; Croisan.i473. ToUl. 8.324. Adding this to the 2s.2S6 in the city limits, we get 34,590. i It takes only 5,410 increase to make up the not mentioning he increases by reason of more state employee who are enumerated and more In attendance at university and SChOOlS.

i i i The growth within the city has been since: 1130 more than half of 5r410f, and the growth outside, In the 'territory completing the metropolitan district, has larger than that within the corporate limits. Take; the two four corners districts east of Salem the "penitentiary; four corners" and the state hospital tour corners on the north. These were new developments, or not started at all. as small tract residence sections, in 1130. Theyi have grown faster than before In the past year.

EspeciaUy Js this I true of the northermost four corners just mentioned. a. in It fsj said the Auburn public schpol, affected most by the last named 'development, has' doubled in attendance this year over last; tbat school room spaed Is more than crowded and will have to be increased, as well as the teaching force, jj- The Same kind of Increase has taken place in all the public schools in Salem's like Salem Heights, Liberty, Hlyes-vllle, iKalser, etc. I- West Salem has grown and la growing fast. No doubt the section of and surrounding Salem Heights will in 1940 show twice the population enumerated In 1930.

p' i V'i With a return ot general pros perity that will foUow "right off the bak" in the event ot a Lan don landslide. Salem ought to be pointed directly to a metropolitan district of 100.000 people. The. full development of the flax and linen Industries, that are now Well on their 'way, would alone make Salem a city of twice 100,000 people.

Nearly all higher institutions have been handicapped with shrinking incomes in recent years. For Jtax-supported schools the; revenues were reduced by legislatures. Private schools suffered losses in endowments and falling off in gifts. The latter institutions face continued reductions because of lower interest rates on investments.
