The services included telephone, tele graph, newspaper, radio, broad casting, newsreel and television and repair facilities. Last July the war mar.nower commission referred to selective service headquarters 34 "essen tial" activities including com munications. Since then, selective service explained, the war man power commission has been breaking these activities down in to critical accupations which were in turn transmitted to local draft boards. Selective service pointed out the new list was merely for guidance of boards as selective service could not direct the de terment of any special groups of men. The list of "critical" occupations follows: Cost accountant, bank man, cable engineer, cable layout man. cable splicer, cable tester, news reel cameraman, maintenance carpenter, central olfice Installer, I combination man (telephone and case is developed. DAILY DEVOTIONS DR. CHAS. A. EDWARDS History reveals some Inter esting and significant facts on the importance of sobriety to the defense of a country.

(2) The Babylonians were at the Feast of Belshazzar "not on the alert" when Cyrus des cended upon their city in 539 B. C. (3) The Saxons spent the night in drinking and were "not on the alert" at the Bat tle of Hastings in 10G6 when they met the Mormans. (4) The Hessians were "not on the alert" at Trenton on Christmas eve, 1776, but were celebrating when the Continen tal army surprised them. (5) Marshal Ney had three glasses of burgundy wine and was "not on the alert" the aft ernoon before the battle of Waterloo and he failed to carry out Napoleon's orders. (t) The French army was not on the alert but had been in idleness and wine drinking when the fall came in ' 1910.

VOTE 313 X NO (TO DIVERT INCOME TAXES) Taxpayers should unite in opposition to this proposal to divert income tax receipts to purposes other than as prescribed in the original income and excise tax laws. These laws were enacted with the specific pledge and promise to the people of Oregon that the revenues therefrom would be applied ONLY toward replacing and reducing property taxes. The sponsors of this initiative claim its purpose to equalize school revenues and to reduce local property ta xes. The exact opposite will result additional funds will be raised for increased spending. The promise of property tax relief will NOT be fulfilled. The ballot title of this bill is misleading and decidedly unfair to voters seeking property tax reduction. Report of the State Tax Commission shows that this bill will increase STATE TAXES on your property $1,300,000 next year, and this will INCREASE in later years.
