Irom Our Buying Rower
It is a real treat to visit our store at this time and note the thrift economies that domi-
' nate each department. At every turn, a new evidence of the superiority of the J. C. Penney
. Co. merchandise and the low prices frequently prove to be littlejess than a revelation.
Klve you a kusliicss-llka iiilinliiistru-
lliin of stutc sffnlrs tbnl will point
tho way to economy In county nnrl
munlclpnl Kovornment.
Tlio otght or ten branch stnto of
fices In J'ortluud shuutil ho con
solldntnd under one roof, thereby
effecting a Huvinu In ri'iitnl anU nn
nddo'J public convenience. 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. KanuiiiK Is our !banlc indus
try, and It Is a" well known fact
that unless tho farmer prospers, all
lines of business unil industry feel
the lil offoct. Tho orKiiulted farm
er is only dcmaudliiK fair und Just
treatment: this ho Is entitled to.
lleliiK a farmer I understand his
problems and realize that u proper
administration of the state govern
ment can be of assistance In hrinK
Im; about better conditions for ag
riculture. 'o-opernt ivn Market Injr.
1 believe u cooperative murket-
, Inc. Properly cu rled out It Is u
beuellt to both the producer and
the consumer.
i Kx-stvvire men should have pref
erence in till public employment.
I 1 am u firm believer in and
supporter of muni roads. All pri
mary, trunk or throiiKh roa,!s
should bo completed tills year.
Thereafter more than one million
dollars over and above bond and
road maintenance requirements will
be available each year from the re-i-iilpts
of gasoline tax and automo
bile licenses. Tills mony should be
used In Improving the more remote
country roa.-ls so the farmers who
are belpiim to pay for the main
highways may bo able to reach nnd
use them.
j I am opposed to Orientals con
ilrolllur. land In the .tate of Oregon
