Two Portland policemen are in trouble for being drunk on duty. Wonder what would happen to the force if tliey sus pended those who gel drunk off duly. A railroad offical says the box-car hoboes are disappearing. Perhaps by the installation of better facilities the roads could recapture this business from the transcontinental motorist. "Quiet this all up, 1 don't want no publicity." Thus n witness quotes Pantagos following the alleged attack on a young dancer. Publicity? He has had nothing else but. Kor once in the history of a millionaire what he wanted and what ho received are vastly different things. A news headline says "Cost to haul becomes big factor in 'tleterifa'n'ing riirl 'freUnfrates.'1' to the layman unfamiliar with rate structures it seems peculiar that such u statement is necessary in reporting interstate commerce commission ses sions. One would assume that the cost of a haul would have liccn a big factor for some time in determining the rate to be charged. But such has not been the case,. There are nil kinds of exceptions. Competition with other lines and with water transportation enters into the picture. To an inland area, therefore, the news that actual cqst figures are becom ing a more important factor in rate regulation is indeed wel come. It can mean much relief for Oregon shippers. TUB NTISANCK OF THIS 1!ILU10AKD Arthur Newton Pack, editor of Nature MagaV.iiic, recently made an automobile tour of the Shenandoah valley in Vir ginia, and returned from it in a stata of extreme indignation. Mr. Pack's sensibilizes wore so stirred by the prevalence in the valley of unsightly billboards that he promptly wrote a letter about it to Coventor Ityrd. Portions of that letter applying, as they do, to every state as well as to Virginia are worth reproducing here: "On every side great (id-fool signs mar the landscape, leaving gaping wounds. They daiice up 'and down the Valley pike and the l.ee highway in a delirium of misplaced color. They cut off view after view. "Even the battlefields, sacred to southern memory, are not sacred to the invading army of billboard builders. Great glowing signs stand watch beside the Manassas battlefield and blazon out their message close to where the smith's heroes lie. "The tourist trade in, those days is an important one, bring ing millions of dollars within the conmumwealth. Since there are thousands of places to visit, the national parks for example, in which the landscape is allowed to preserve un touched its beauty, what will be the result to any state that allows its charm to be destroyed and its scenery marred by a few advertisers?" Mr. Pack jumps on Virginia, of course, because that hap pened to be where he took his drive. Hut every state of fends just as badly, and every stale might as well assume that that letter was addressed to it. The highway billboard is a nuisance; and the fact that there is not much of any way in which the law can reach it, since it is almost invariably erected mi private property, makes the problem of its control a tough one. We can only hope that the advertisers eventually will realize that it is poor policy to thrust their pleas before the eyes of people who are looking for scenic, beauty. TRY W. K. GILBERT CO.

Fre Batttry IrutalUtlen Strvtc 92 in Eights As proof of the tremendous growth in public preference for eight-cylinder oars, registration figures in this State for the first seven months of 1929 tell their own story. Eights above $1,000 showed an increase of 92 per cent while Sixes, in the same price field decreased 11 per cent. The tendency is the same the nation over. In 4 states, Eights above 1000 increased 94 per cent. Sixes declined 1 S per cent. Nobody can doubt the evidence. We are passing into an eight-cylinder era. Already, all of the finest ' American cars are Eights. In fact, 41 per cent of all makes are Eights, and the number is constantly increasing. . Spurred on by an Eight-minded public, Studebaker set out two years ago to build a high-quality Eight that could be sold at moderate six-cylinder cost. Studebaker today leads the world in the manufac ture of Eights Eights that are champions holders of 1 1 world records for speed and endurance and more American stock car records than all other makes combined Eights which are remarkably economical smooth, 'flexible, brilliant. Before investing in your new car, drive a smart new Studebaker Eight President, Commander or Dictator. Bear in mind that Studebaker's 77 years of manufacturing integrity stand back of every one of these cars. And remember, too, that your new car will be worth more a year from now if it's an Eight!
