ROSEBURG, OREGON,
- , OPPOSE FEDERAL AIP
' That certain influences in eastern slates are trying' to
? bring about the abolition of the system of Federal aid in the
.;' building of state highways is the warning brought to the
west from different sources within the past few weeks. The
states in which the agitation is the most pronounced are not
'J benefited by the system themselves, and this seems to be
about the only reason 4why they oppose it for others. In
X eleven western states, where the Federal government has
immense forest reserves, twenty-five per cent of the pro-
Jteeds from timber sales is turned back to the states for
, schools and roads. In the eastern states the government
.. has no timber for sale, hence those states derive no revenue
I'on such a score, and because of that fact a dog-in-the-manger
attitude toward the west has been adopted.
( , It appears that this antagonism to the Federal aid sys-
; tem has been stirred up by political agitators, rather than by
; ; business interests, and it is
j ; endorse ine move, ine manufacturing interests, particuiar-
ly those having to do with automotive industry and the pro-
duction of lumbering and farm machinery, must certainly
i realize that any curtailment of road construction in the west
J will retard general development and consequently affect
I ! their own lines of business. The probable argument that the
' western states should bear the entire cost of their own high
; ', ways is untenable because with so much valuable property
I ! within their boundaries owned by the Federal government
; tne states are entitled to some revenue in return. Much less
J ; heavily populated than the eastern states, the western group
J ; cannot progress rapidly without Federal assistance, and any
; check on the program would be seriously felt. Host certain
r ly the east would not be benefited. ' '
However, the eastern propaganda has forced the growth
, . of the subject until it has become of sufficient importance to
I ! attract the attention of western commercial bodies who have
J I lost no time interesting their representatives in congress. At
; J the next session of that body the matter will probably ap
l ; pear in some formal shape, but it will have to possess merit
qual to that of a scriptural doctrine if it is to survive the
combined onslaught of eleven states.

President and Mrs. Coolidge recently observed a 20th
wedding anniversary. This contrasts pleasantly with many
married couples who can not get along together for 20
months, perhaps not 20 weeks. The newspapers used to
print In about every issue accounts of this or that couple that
had celebrated some wedding anniversary, usually the 25th
or 50th. The community likes to honor such folks. That
kind of news seems less conspicuous now. front does not
mean that married couples are commonly separating before
those memorable dates. It may pimply indicate that more
people are celebrating these events in a quiet manner. The
completion of a long period of harmonious family affection
suggests that if people will exercise reason in marrying,
they can celebrate many happy anniversaries, and found
homes that will be centers of beneficent influence.
We think Governor Pierce is right in his conclusions
about tire difficulties existing between the Southern Pacific
and Oregon Trunk lines, when he states that the develop
ment of the state is of much more importance than the row
between the two railroads. It is not good business to give
any railroad a monopoly in any particular section of Oregon
if this state is to grow and prosper.

When I went down to Keubenville, I met a stranger in
the street; ho talked to me with wondrous skill, his smile was
bland, his voice wad sweet. He pointed to a building tall, a
stately structure, wide and long; he called it his ancestral
hall, and said he'd sell it for a song. For evil luck had dog
ged his trail and filled his bosom with despair; and so I dug
up all my kale and bought the building, then mid there. It
was the court house I thus bouKht, and when I went to claim
my own, the sheriff said my dome of thought was built of
cheap mail order bone. I sat upon the courthouse lawn, and
marveled much at people's guile; I said, "My hard earned
roll is gone, but still the lesion is worth while. Hereafter
when a stranger tries to sell
that grief has made me wise, nor can hi eloquence prevail.

OF STATE TO UNITE
EH
What Is declared to be one of
e moil complete analysis of the
problem southern Oregon faces In
sdvertlslng to get Increased popu
lation and Industries was presented
when representatives of liouglas.
Klaniaiti, Jttsephlne a:id Jackson I
counties met In Grants Pass Octo
ber 7 and voted ananlmously In fa
tor of a proposed plan to link the
lour counties together In an adver
tising caninign.
The report waa made by the II.
K. Mcl'ami company, San Fran
cisco advertising enperts. This
company Has selected because
Ha rt'pulstlnn aa a leading adver
tising agency, ami because ll does
nut favor one southern Oregon
community over the other.
At the request of the California
Oregon Hner Company, which or-
Ig'nally Intended to undertake a
campaign for more Inriu-ries In
southern Oregon, the ril
was -
compiled. The McCsun company.
however, recommended that the
power rompuny not undertske the
campaign alone, due to Us rx
IHMist'. and further nxiiniin.lid
that the nsnie of the company not
appear in any V the atlverlise-
me n
,,11 r-ifTn
increased, imiusiries follow in
natural course.
The problem of bringing more In-
dairies to southern Oregon Is a
problem of bringing more people
the report continues. This Is an un-
lenaking too big for any single In-
stlititlon to tackle. It will have to
be handled by the general com
nitinltles. j
"Cnmmiinliy advertising has!
grown In the p-Aive years to JO
times its original proportion," n
la declared In the report. There
are only two possible way by
which business o( any member of
a conimiiniiy may be Increased :
He can fight to get A larger share
of the existing business, at the ex
pense of bla compeUtora. or he
can Join with his competitors to
increase: the total of axisUng busi
ness, and thus produce more to go
around.'
Community advertising, which
does away with cut-throat competi
tion is recommended in the report.
Kesults of other communities
with this method of advertising
are outlined. They abow It costs
about 5o per family to secure pew
settlers.
The McCann analyala aska five
questions: What aouthern Oregon
la; lis advertising objective; what
it has to offer; to whom it is go
ing to seU itself, and how.
"Southern Oregon is not a ter
minal for anything,' declares the
report, -inaustrisiiy, mere Is a
field for specialized industries that
deal with lumber, minerala and
agriculture, lta other business will
be largely of a retail, small manu
facturing and service character
such business aa keeps in step
with the population that supports
It In Its own immediate vicinity.'
"Added population in small cities
dlnilnishea the objections which
manufacturers have against estab
lishing plants outside the larger
cities," the report goes on to say.
"Southern Oregon Is essentially
a pleasant place to live In. It Is
one of the few real vacation coua
triea of ail the west It has recre
ation resources that are peculiarly
aitracUve to many thousanda of
people," It is ' submitted. The re
port suggests that the vacation ap
peal be capitalized In an advertis
ing campaign.
Certain Industries could not pos
Bibly be brought to southern Ore
gon, while advertising would neith
er attract nor repel others, it is
declared. Natural advantage Is the
only determining feaiure. The
sound, logical objective of south
ern Oregon community selling
should be to bring more people, so
that Industry will follow them.
"Most communities that have the
Itch to advertise can analyze their
situation down this far," it is de-
, , . i . , i l uiurv uunfT man me average
ctared. "and then they atop. They , whe , Thl Industry making
want vbltors-tourists-but what harger yield, per acre thin wheat
have they that the tourists can beji, proportional.? much more val-
toring, their trout and salmon
fishing, their mountatna, their
camping, their Crater Lai??"
"In the possession of Crater
Lake, aouthern Oregon Is &.-':
fortunate than it realizes. It wou..
have been difficult to locate this
natural wonder more suitably for
the purpose of making it serve as
an advertising resource to com
munities from Klamath Falls to
Roseburg," continues the McCann
report. "Travel to and from Crater
Lake profits every town along the
highways. It Is the hub of roads
that lead to Knseburg, Grants Pass.
Medford, Ashland and Klamath
Falls."
At the Grants Pass meeting, H
was Informally decided to capital
ise the whole southern Oregon
wonderland rather than featuring
Crater Lake alone.
A fund of $12,000 Is suggested for
an advertising campaign. Advertis
ing In the east Is held worthless
because huge auras being sient by
other Interests are drawing travel
to the Pacific coast It is only nec
essary to adverUse on tbe coast,
the report declares.
it Is recommended lhat space be

would be necessary for technical
production. The agency would
make its profit from (tie 15 per

publications.
Considering the advertisements
themselves, the McCann company
makes a number of suggestions,
which were passed on at the meet'
Ing.
"Our conviction Is that an In-
creased tourist travel will pay the
advertising bill aa the campaign
goes along. We are satisfied that

I'nleas raesent indications are
very much at fault something lik-t
a crisis in the present prohibition
situation is likely to develop dur
ing the coming winter.

be put before eamgress by both
contesting sides of the controversy,
es It often haa been before, but
this time, unless forecasts are very i
much at fault, with a new vlRor and
polnt that can hardly be Ignored.
The new angle from wmoh pro
hibition enforcement Is. likely to
be approached is unnuestiuuablv
the political and dishonest charac
ter of the nresent management of
the servlt. The belief that the
whole enforcement personnel ia per
tneated with corruption may be ex
treme or overdrawn. e
At all events It exists and It
would be difficult to convince the
average man In almost any section
of the country that there Is not a
great deal of favoritism In connec
tion with the work of the staff.
to say nothing of the coarse graft
wnitTi evidently prevails In many
quarters.
to attribute an this lo the po
litical complexion of the service
and the u"e of "lnflunce" la very
natural, while the investigations of
various kinds that bave been made
tffrough more or less nonpartisan
bodies within the past fewmonths
have given concrete form to the
opinion that the actual enforcement
of the law Is nominal or uon-exlst-ig.
Why should not the application
of the system be given a reason
ably efficient test before any de
cision Is resched one way or the
other about the national attitude on
prohibit lun T
The qTostlon Itself la partly an
issts of morals and partly one of
expediency, hut the enforcement of
thla or any" other law free of poli
tics and dishonesty Is a problem
of government simply, which ought
to be disposed of aa sitrh.
How the treasury ran get Its own
consent to the continued mainten
ance of conditions like those In In
come taxation and prohibition
passes the comprehension of the
average citizen.
if the graft and Irregularity were
eliminated from prohibition en
forcement the sithjecl Itself would
take on an entirely new aspect and
real decision of It would be
feasible.
As tilings stand the question Is
falling more ' and more into the
hamla of partisans who make a
profit out of the measures taken
by the government and whose
srsssrjrsssawsss-.U
chlef regret would be, to have the
subject actually disposed of once
and for all on a legitimate basis.

The opening meeting ' of Green
P. T. A. waa a splendid success
from every viewpoint. It began
with a "Hot Luck supper" and so
cial hour In the basement of the
school bouse. At 3 o'clock the two
large claaa rooms were fUled with
an attentive audience to listen to
a musical program that was ex
ceptionally good. Miss Myrtle Her
sber, Mr. Ott and Mr. Germaine
of Roseburg, opened the program
with two musical selections that
were roundly applauded. Vesta
Simmons and Neva Agee sang a
pleasing duet Then Mrs. Fay
lsom, principal of the school, assist
ed by Miss Wickham and the pu
pils of both rooms, demonstrated
the use of the phonograph in teach
ing music appreciation in the
school room. .This waa very inter
esting and called forth much praise.
Mrs. lsom made a special study of
this work during the summer at
Monmouth normal school. Little
Virginia and Earl Oakley pleased
the audience with a piano duet.
Mrs. Helnline, of the Helnllne Con
servatory, then gave a most inter
esting talk on music, showing how
the study of music' ltjlps to round
out the mental development of
even the child who baa no special
musical talent Mrs. Helnllne, who
Is an authority along this line,
gave patrons and pupils alike a
broader vision of what music
should mean In the home and in
the development of the growing
boy and girl. Agnea Burt and
Dale Simmons played a violin duet
accompanied by Mrs. Helnline on
the piano. A piano and violin selec
tion was next rendered by Barbara
and Elswortb Ott, and Miss Bar
bara sang a pleasing solo. The
program ended with another selec
tion by Miss Hersher, Mr. Ott and
Mr. Germaine.
