'..-.A dispatch in yesterday's Observer says that the Su preme Court hands down a decision permitting- prohibition "agents to search automobiles without a warrant. We never heard of their being especially backward, anyhow. ;! The project to increase salaries of National representa tives and senators is one of the most sensible pieces of legislation congress has given attention to for a long time. It's not just exactly an economy at the present time, of course, and. we won't go on record as saying that the sena tors and ' representatives now in office are worth a bis? i salary increase, but we do have hopes of offering enough Bo.lliut'big calibre men will not refuse the jobs. A $10,000- r u-jyear.rnnn y) a $20,000 job. usually registers a net loss. ON WITH ECONOMY, i "Tomorrow a president is to be inaugurated.

Coolidge just isn't built for display and lavish expenditure and government waste. There's no help for it. lie's economical, he's careful, an l She might even lo classed as "tight." And that's just the jkind of a president we like best here in Kastein Oregon. jWc can't go back to the inauguration and we therefore J h;ive little sympathy for a lavish expenditure of govern-i . mental funds tor the sake of showing foreign ainlmssadois what a great country this is when a president is sworn' into office. l.With a start like this and with thp preliminary 'show-, ing Coolidge has made, we anticipate a prosperous and sensible administration.
