failure to find revenue for state needs is being excused
with the statement that "Oiegon has got along without these
thiijgs up to now and can worry along for another two years
thoisame way." Of course we can. We can worry along
witlj qne pair of pants and a rod flannel undershirt, too. We
caniujnrry along with a hole in the roof of our shanty and in
the -floor of our sock. We
andjsowlK-Ily on the table. We can worry along with a log m-
school house education. We can worry along with the barest
and! most ridiculous necessities if need be. Rut does Ore
gonjhavc such a need or such a ih-sirc? . 1
f)iegon is neither bankrupt nor xvcrty4rickcn. Not all
her -taxpayers are highly piosjkmous, by any means, but
neither are they suffering from the pangs of starvation.
TheV can get along without some of these new and better
thiijgs. to be sure but they don't want to. They want, in
stead, a state that is equal to its neighbors, a state that is as "
atliiiclive in its man-made advantages as it is in its God-i
mae advantages. They want a state that is worthy of the
nanjo. a state that both can and does move forward.

tan; be and must be endured for another two years. Rut!
thaj fact doesn't make it any loss a disgrace. Students will j
continue to attend the university without a new library. Ruti
thai doesn't minimize the advantage the new building would'
be in the making of many future Oregon citizens. j
We can get along with the mess that the legislature hasj
left it's true, but what a set-back for a young and vigorous j
state! It's a serious lesponMhtlity not Itecausc we antic-
ipate any dire results. We don't. Rut it is serious tacause j

getting ahead!
