The senate nt least some of its members prepares to ; make a fight on the reappointment of Andy Mellon as secre tary of treasury! It's true he doesn't inspire personal lik ing, but it's also true thnt he's tecn a most efficient man in that job and Hoover adores efficiency. To say that a majority of the people in the state favor some kind of income tax is probably true, but it is also prob ably futile. The more the idea of a stale income tax is talked, the more variety there is in the opinions on what its provisions should bo. There are more kinds of income tax than there are beauty creams and goodness knows that's awful! We can't become one bit enthused over any recom itiendation for an income ,tnx because there Beems to lie no ; hance of agreement. Any variety that gets by the legis lature probably won't get by the people at a referendum.. So the law makers should devote their time to something .-more practical. Try something about' which the public j doesn't have such set ideas. The income tax idea has gone stale,. in Oregon and wo can best wait until conditions are more favorable. 120 Acres Sold ; At Promise To - Mr. Henderson - Il- Mr. IliviJui rariNV ' (olwrvor I'oiTfMponUnt ) I'KOMIXK, Or., .

Choice S5 pound i the flrat of the week. II ( THE FIVE-DAY WEEK That Henry Ford iH in earnest about bin five-cluy working week cannot lie jcisiti(!. He in for it to the extent that he has employed 30,000 men to make it possible in his Detroit factories. If each of these men j-eceives the standard Ford wajfe of $5 a day, the automobile wizard's investment in his latest idea will be ?KiO,000 a day. Ford thinks a worker can produce more in a week by working five days and resting two than by working five and a half or six days and resting one and a half or one. So he has adopted the five day plan for his o1i benefit as well as for altruistic reasons. Thin modern Moses emerges from clouds of factory smoke with a revised Decalogue, on which Uio undent commandment is made to read, "Five davs shalt thou labor and do all thy" work, and on the sixth and seventh thou shalt rest." The five-day week has found favor with the American reiteration of Labor, the cloak and suit industry and labor in general, but there are some who wish with "William Clis sold," a creature of 11. G. Wells' making, that "the ancient people who invented the week had invented it longer and larger and with more than one day of rest at the end of it.' If the Mosaic law and custom did not forbid it, there doubtlessly would be many workers who would divide their month into two labor periods of 12 days each, separated by rest periods of .three or four days, deluding on the length of the month. The present Sabbath is merely a pause in man's toil ; it is neither a rest nor a change. The laborer comes back to work Monday morning less disposed for work than when he left it Saturday noon. Which may be his fault as much as the fault of a six-day system. Imbler Woman Now In Sunny South Ily Mm. C. M.
