Tho doctrines of red radicalism, or communism, have never foiflid general favor among the workingmen of Ameri ca, says James J. Davis, of the department of labor, in an ar .' tide contributed to the National Republic. There are many reasons for this. Among them may be mentioned the lol- lowing : The American worker has always before him the oppor tunity to remove himself by his industry, ingenuity and '.' thrift from the ranks of the workers, and to take a higher place in the economic life of the country. He knows that our history is full of instances of men who have begun at the bot torn of the economic ladder and who through their own exer tions have climbed to the very top of our industrial and fi- nancial structure. With these instances and this opportunity before him, the American workers cannot be won to any eco nomic or political system which would surely deprive him U and his chilren of them. The American worker is the best paid worker in the .. world. He enjoys the best working conditions and the high ' est standards of living of the workers of any nation. He is ; unwilling to risk the loss of these advantages by fostering j any scheme of government that would overthrow the system under which these advantages have been won, and he is not ! ignorant of the effect which communism would have upon these things. The American worker has a vital, material stake, a tre mendous financial interest in our industrial and commercial establishment. The tendency of the worker to put his sav ings into industry, providing capital through investments in industrial and commercial securities, is a constantly grow ing one. The growth of this tendency is truly astonishing to anyone who has not been familiar with tiie course of invest ments in stocks and bonds during the past decade. One of our prominent economists, discussing the distribution of wealth in this country recently showed that the number of '" stockholders in our industries increased from 4,400,000 in - 1900 to 11,400,000 today. He pointed out too that there has been a shifting of ownership from the wealthy to the middle classes of our people. The number of shares held by each stockholder and the average holdings have materially decreased. Sixty-eight large oompanies had 342,346 stock holders in 1920. In 1923 they had 1,786,214 stockholders, an Increase of more than 500 per cent. FINE MAP OF OREGON ISSUED Anglers, hunters and recreation seekers who sense the call of the north will find a veritable mine of condensed in formation in an outing map of the State of Oregon prepared by the outing and map service departments of the Automo bile Club of Southern California for its members and visit ing motorists. The map is 24 by 3fl inches, and in addition to the high ways, rivers and lakes, it shows in red ink camp sites, where supplies are obtainable, where gasoline and oil can be had, post-offices, meals and lodgings, where guides, packers and animals are obtainable, where boats are for rent, ranches where butter and eggs, etc. may be purchased, points of interest, scenic areas, water falls, main trails and game refuges. On tho reverse side of the map is printed all sorts of de tailed information including Roosevelt Highway, McKenzie River, Middle Fork of the Willamette country, Columbia River Highway, and ML Hood Loop, Pacific Highway, Klamath Ijtke, Crater Lake, Diamond Lake and I'pper Rogue River, and a list of golf clubs in the state. There is also a general mileage table giving distances between the more important cities and towns of the state via the shortest feasible routes. Amateur campers will find numerous hints that may help in making their outings comfortable and pleasureable and simple rules for sportsmen are given. The map is a companion to the outing map of California issued some time ngo by the outing bureau of tho club. o It is commonly said that modern industry has little use for old workers. Yet if you look through the factories of al most any city, you would usually find quite a number of men who have Uvn working at their trade 40 to f:0 years or more. There is a man in Beverly, Mass., for instance, who has been Khoemaking for 65 years. Some business men think that their older workers are not so efficient. Thev should realize that they have a value apart from amount of product. Many of them will do as much as any young man, for they came up from a time wlien it was not fashionable to limit production. It was the custom then to make gxds that would last a long time, a good idea to impress on the youifjr crowd. Also some of those fellows are a quieting influence in a workshop when the young hoe-heads are in danger of blowing up. PlCKfNS Br BERT &. BATES ! GOOD EVENING FOLKS !
