Vote for Governor
THREE full days before citizens of Oregon go to the polls to
choose a new governor, University students will have in their
hands as accurate a forecast as possible of the trend the campus
vote will take November 4. For the Emerald and the local chapter
of Sigma Delta Ciii, journalistic society, are sponsoring a straw
vote among all students today, to settle the oft-raised query of
politically-minded students: “Which candidate for governor will
carry the campus?’’
All four gubernatorial candidates Julius Meier, independent;
Phil Metschan, Republican nominee; Edward Bailey, Democratic
nominee; and Albert Streiff, Socialist have visited the University
during the past month. All delivered talks on the issues of the
campaign before student meetings, and two of them will have held
downtown rallies.
The straw vote today will be. handled just as though it were a
student body election. You need not be of tegal voting age to cast
your ballot in this poll. The only requirement is that your name
appear in the student directory.
Clip the ballot in today’s Emerald and then go to the lobby
of the main library any time between 10 a. m. and 3 p. m. Let's
make this straw vote a true indication of campus sentiment on the
governor campaign. Vote!
IT IS a bit of a surprise that some of the many needy students
which our employment directors tell us are on the campus have
not seized an easy wmy to put themselves through school estab
lishing a sedan-chair service to transport students over the diagonal
path which leads from Condon hall to the women’s quadrangle.
Dear old Captain Salisbury has nothing on the hundreds of
intrepid student-explorers who pick their precarious way across
this modern “Slough of Despond” every rainy day. The cost of
cleaning clothes and shoes hopelessly muddied here would more
than pay for the building of a board walk similar to others on the
campus.
It is incongruous to walk past a new $125,000 fine arts building
on a terrain which still retains its neolithic aspects. Carpenters
worked several days early this month repairing the walk which
leads from Johnson hall to the Music building. Could it not have
been left unrepaired another winter, and the money spent on a new
walk or pontoon-bridge laid across the Oregon slough?
AL the next session of the legislature, let’s send a student lobby
committee up to Salem to work for a special board-walk appropri
ation. '
Erasing the Red
GOVERNMENTS are always interested in fine figures. Not from
tlie physical culture magazines, but from the reports of an
investigating committee probing Red activities in the United States
is this conclusion reached.
Fifty thousand men and women, if we remember rightly, hold
opinions dangerous to the well-being of the other millions in the
country. That proportion may be said to be four-hundredths of
one per cent. Americana is surely getting a pink tinge when four
hundredths of one per cent have more than held their own in the
enabling American society.
To be sure, foreign wheat traders are not included with the
syndicalists and powerful communists listed, and the figure might
possibly reach up to another hundredth of a per cent. Still, let it
rest at four-hundredths of one per cent.
The only recourse we have, experience seems to tell us, is to
follow the example of our city police. They drive hoboes, criminals,
and people without visible employment, into the neighboring cities.
Applying the same principle, the country deports all the Reds it
can.
Four-hundredths of one per cent isn't such a small fraction.
It isn't much finer than the famed Volstead one-half of one per
cent. But the government knows how to reach finer figures than
that. The fifty thousand men and women themselves offer the so
lution.
With each man deported, the country is rid of one fifty-thou
sandths of foui-hundredths of one-hundredths of ttie population.
After all, we can’t find much fault with hustling a small frac
tion like that out of the country.
Eugene townspeople who question the ethics of using stool
pigeons before arrests might also inquire into the ethics of crack
ing books before exams. Guesses and suspicion are usually both
wrong. But, then, we never flunked a course in a college we didn't
attend, either.
Thorp’s no use in printing the candidates’ platforms with the
Emerald-Sigma Delta Chi ballot, the reporter says, if students
don’t know them, they won t vote anyway.
It is too bad that more voters aren't like that.
Consumers wonder why bread isn't down when wheat prices
arc low. Well, 9-million-a-day stock went down yesterday, but we
don t get any bigger cokes.

YMCA Sends 160 Letters
To University Graduates
One hundred and sixty letters
were sent out by the campus Y.
M. C. A. this week to graduate
students of the University who
have served on the cabinet in past
years. The letters, which tell of
the work of the ”Y,” go to various
parts of the world.
Glancing over the mailing list,
Walter Meyers, who is in charge
of activities at the Hut, said, “It’s
surprising where these students
have scattered in just a few brief
years. One of the letters went to
South America, another to the
Philippine Islands, and two to
Honolulu.”
“It is hoped," he continued, “to
keep the graduates who are inter
ested in touch with the work of
the association here on the cam
pus.”

1921 the dance was only given two

to make room for it, so the only thing to do is to put
a price on some of the older items that will move them.”
