Stantou GOVERNOR SNELL has added greatly to his political stature as the result of his appointment of Attorney Guy Cordon to succeed the late U. S. Senator Charles L. McNary. It is no secret that the governor coveted the position for himself. He has frankly admitted the ambition. Earl Snell would have been and we hope may yet be a capable United States senator. We share with him his con fidence that he "could render a valuable and constructive service," to the state of Oregon and to the nation, had he chosen to grasp the appointment for himself, as he had the power to do. It requires a large measure men great to reject an opportunity to fulfill a life-long am tyition. The governor might have lost some political esteem and support had he availed himself of the power his office carries to advance arbitrarily 1 et, we firmly believe he would, by the time election rolled around, have regained, through efficient service, the support which might have been lost 'temporarily through unfavorable sentiment arising from the advancement of himself as the interim senator. The picture of men in positions of authority risinir above the level of personal aggrandizement, subjugatinir self-inter- jest to the welfare of the commonwealth, is a rarity in these " niurciiiuinBiH., in uici, wiin me mode in high places. The overwhelming majority by which Earl Snell was elect ed to the office of governor attests the esteem in which he is held by Oregon voters. He has added to that esteem by unselfish sacrifice of his personal ambitions to the best in terests of the state he was elected to serve. The moot fact, which makes the appointment in the best interest of the state, is that no interim appointee could enter upon the work with greater foreknowledge of procedure and current issues than Cordon. It does not involve the question of whether Cordon possesses more, or less, ability for the of fice than does Snell. For more than 15 years Cordon has spent several months or each year in Washington. He has been working closely with the Oregon delegation. He is familiar with the capitol set-up Ho can step into the job with as much ease as if he had been previously in office. Ho will be able to retain for the state ot Oregon many of the important posts held bv euecessor. a man less tamiliar with methods and with existing legislation would, of necessity, spend months getting acquainted with his duties and finding his place in the sen ate organization. Naturally, the residents of Douglas county rejoice in the hoi, or bestowed upon Guy Cordon, who becomes the first United States senator ever to serve from this section of Ore gon. 0 are extremely grateful to Governor Snell for his , ,-ueu.any realising and Appreciating the sacrifice tho action involved. We have every confidence that Cordon will fill the of fice .111 a manner bringing credit to himself and t u,c state 'Oregon and that Governor Snel. will have no reason, 'Kiel ins (leciston If congress should adopt a federal ballot in any form it should pass a clause, to prohibit the treasury de , Z'.f income ax experts from framing the ticket.

Take tonight for instance: following Army Air Forces, there's Lone Ranger at 7:30 and you needn't laugh we'll bet you listen too. Chuck and tho Bunkhouse Boys, all fix ed up with a sponsor and lots of swell western tunes tonight at 8 and, of course, our pet Point Sublime at 8:30. Then at 10 o'clock sort of the frosting on tile cake there's Shelock Holmes and Dr. Watson, with an assort ment of blood curdling tales. Do you listen to Lullaby in Rhythm at 4:30? If you don't, you're miss ing some good music and clever chatter. As a matter of fact, al thought the music is tops, we get more entertainment out of the announcer than we do from the melodies.
