It Is my Vurposo to the economy that can bo offecte'l by a rigid and intelligent npplica tlon of the provisions of this law. The cost of maintaining most of the state Institutions is too high. The state penitentiary Is a striking example. With a state-owned farm lo pruduco supplies, add tli In state officials and employees bo re vised downward to the pro-war ba Bls.

No pru dent business mini would have the several departments of his business scattered us arc1 those uf the statu In Portland. State owned automobtlci now In excess of two hundred should ho reilucod In number nnd usod for statu business only, not for pleasuro, private business or by tho families of state officials or employees. Tlio present automobile license is inadequate and unjust to tho own ers of used cars. It Includes the' properly tax as well as the license and yet tho owner of uu uld ma ctilno pays tho samo amount in tho owner of a new machine of like make. This tax should be equit ably adjusted, I 'am opposed to any Incrojse In the automobile li cense fees or Knsolino tax. Abolish Comiiiisslun, Tho Public Service Commission should bo abolished by repeal of tho Public Utilities Act. A law should be enacted providing for an appointive commission to rerlso utility rates. I favor n system of public educa tion efficiently and economically administered. Our public aided edu cational institutions should charge non-iosidclit sludunts a tuition equal to that required by Idmllar Institutions in adjnlnluK states. Any administration In Oiokou to bo successful, must, In my opinion, Klvo careful sympathetic consider ation to tho Interests of (lie farm ers.
