BIG CITY CONGESTION : ...president Coolidge, speaking to a gathering; of Auto mobile Club secretaries some days ago, expressed some ."tloubt as to whether the very great cities are as efficient 'as they have been thought to be. Many students of social .'conditions will say that the big cities have reached a point "where they exact too heavy a djiarge for the privilege of jhM'ixig a home in them. If the streets are so crowded that business vehicles have to move very slowly to get anywhere, ,itJs expensive distributing supplies. If land is pushed to exorbitant values, it will cost too much to own or rent homes ;tt&re.' If stores have to pay high rents, they must add these "charges to their goods. The time would seem to have come JtJft'X movement to persuade people not to crowd without -reason into great centers of population. If a person starts tdf 'Such a community with a vague idea that the opportun ities 'are better there than elsewhere, the chances are very 'strong that he will be sadly disappointed. If he earns more money, which is doubtful, he will have to spend more for l.'.lhe cost of everything. The visitor to almost any great city must be impressed with the way traffic gets jammed. As V.hd'sees trucks waiting for the time until they can move, he -must. feel that the consumers of the stuff carried by those trurfjij are fiaving to pay the cost of that jam, as charges -.are imposed sufficient to cover the expense of slow moving '"deliveries. In a Community like Roseburg, no extra charges ..have to be paid because our streets are so crowded that ,';trafffc can not operate efficiently. The business of the future is lively to settle more and more in communities liko oum, where expense are reasonable, and where any kind of "business can operate economically.

The National Bureau of Eco nomic Research gives an answer to that question in a recent . , report on population, according to Nation's Business, fl'he ' Bureau estimates the population of the United States on ' July'l of last year at 113,454,000. Of these 35,000,000 are children under fifteen, not employed. Another 35,000,000 I'ltrcadults not gainfully employed; most of whom are en zinged in the arduous labor of housekeeping. A third group - of 83,500,000 are working for others. This leaves 9,600,000 ,iiQ.are employers or are in business on their own account "The proportion of workers grew in war time but '.dropped back, so that it stands now about where it did fif teen years ago. Some 38 per cent of the population are , ""gainfully employed," the other 62 per cent being about ; ,Jiiwfly divided between adults and children. Thnro has been, the Bureau believes, a shrinkage in the numbers who work for themselves, due to the corporate "growth in business. These "entrepreneurs," as the report calls them, numbered 9,8330,00 in 1909 and 9,657,000 in 1924 despite a 25 per cent increase in population. - 'But how does one define employer? Is the president of ', thert United States Steel Corporation an employer or one of the employed? And if he is one of the employed, how many employers of labor do you know? Corporations have swal- lowed up most employers save farmers, proprietors of bcaqty shops (now called beauticians), bootblacks (soon to be wailed booticans), and perhaps an occasional grocer and butcher.

PICKENS BROTHERS Perkins Bldg, Phone 68 GAME PLAYED IN In a rattling good game of base- Call last night, the Odd Fellows team of the twilight league defeat ed the Baptist-DeMolay combina tion by a score of 8 to 8, two extra innings being necessary to deter mine ine outcome. The evening was cold and raw and both teams were slow ln get ting started, but after the game was once under way It was nip and tuck until the finldh. "Doc" Fin lay the manager of the Baptlst-De Mo lay team, effectively plugged the hole at shortstop last night, by putting Sid Nichols ln the breech. Nichols was the star of the game, taking one fielding chance after another In a perfect manner. The game waa fast, and in sev eral innings -only three men on each team faced the respective pitchera. j The twilight games are limited to seven innings, but when that frame rolled around the score stood 8 to 6, so it waa necessary to go an extra Inning. The youngsters succeeded in circling the bases again, but the Odd Fellows by a, couple of clean hits, also put across another run, tlelng the score again 7 to 7. In their half of the 9th. he boys again scored one, but failed to bold the Odd Fellows, and a wild neave over first base, allowed the winning run to cross. j CUSS DAY PROGRAM AT H. S.
