ominous sound. It is a chapter out
of the Dark Ages. ,
pOR roughly .100 years, Rome
ruled the world witii a firm
but reasonably just hand. During
this period, there was a relative
measure of peace ami security, and
civilization advanced rapidly.
Intellectually, the culture of
Greece and Rome was equal to ours
of today, although mechanically it
was inferior. Mechanical progress
is based upon the use of power, and
in the hey-day of Greece and Rome
fiteain and electricity had not yet
been harnessed. -

Rome, nen's minds were reason

of her power and began to de

Spanish government forces,

bank, today stepped up a new of
fensive father north in an attempt
to recapture the Tremp power
plants which formerly fed Itaree

for many war industries of the

While militiamen moved toward
Tremp. other government forces
prepared to launch attacks along
the Segre river where they have
established a sector 12 miles long
and three miles deep in a ten-day
offensive.
The insurgents cleaned up the
Kbro river's west hank and de

dispatches, however, said "neither

Military observers agreed the
campaign had been successful in

SALEM, Ore., Nov. 17 UP)
The cost of operating Oregon's
state government during the 1939-
40 bhnnium was estimated today
at S103.195.327. of which $24,354,-
082 will be spent by departments
dependent upon legislative appro
priations.
In estimates submitted by Budget
Director Wallace S. Wharton to
Gov. Charles H. Martin, Wharton
said that heads of appropriative
departments would get almost S5.
000,000 less , than they asked for.
The total budget is $13,000,000 more
than the 1937-38 budget and $9,000.
ooo Ipss thau the amount spent
in 1935-36.
"The estimate submitted .pro
vides for a balanced budget, with
a surplus of 87.970 for legislative
contingencies," Wharton said.

Approved expenditures by self-
sustaining departments total $78,

"If -.Hie -services 'of the-state' are"
to Ite expanded in keeping with
the increasing demands from the
public, the public must be made to
realize the burden of the cost and
realize that state funds must be
provided in addition to those from
existing sources of revenue if the
expansion is to be sanctioned,"
Wharton said in warning that the
state either must curtail its activ
ities or incur debt.
The state relief committee, which
at first requested $30,000,000 and
later pruned its request to 525,-

During the 1937-38 hiennium,
only $14,975,576 was spent for re

F. R. SURPRISED AT
ELECTION RESULTS
PORTLAND, Ore., Nov. 17
(AIM Of all the democrats taken
aback by party reversals at the
general elections, the most sur
prised of all was President Roose
velt, Drew Pearson, Washington
columnist, said in an interview.
"To me the most important
thing about the election was the
deserting of party labels," the
writer stated. "The issues were be
tween conservatives and liberals,
regardless of party."
Pearson, who asserted that the
president was more surprised than
anyone expected him to be, added
the voters attitude might mean
the breakdown of all parties.
l ie declared there were instances
where democratic votes elected re
publican governors and where CIO
support named a republican sena
tor. The possible break in the
party system, he said, was also
shown bv the third party's upset in
Wisconsin.
He told the administrators It was
their function to build a sense of
"dignity" among WPA workers, so
they would be "proud or their jobs,
glnd to work for the United States
government and not ashamed to
tell their neighbors about it."
Urging civil service for the WPA.
Hopkins said he felt "very strongly
that the American people resent,
will resent and should resent the
injection of petty politics into un
employment relief work."
The results of laBt week's elec
tions, he said, should make clear
"once and for all that you can't in
fluence a voter on the WPA."
Hopkins asserted it was "econom
ically impossible" for all citizens
to save enough to assure them of
security in later life. Ultimately,
he said, all pensions to the aged
would be given as a matter of right
without any Investigation to deter
mine need.
