THE JIAKTUIt'K 1'ltOMlKK Jesuit wild: When tin- Coni . fiirtor Is come, whom I will Hond unto you from the Father, .. even the Spirit of truth, which prorcedi'th from the Father, ho ': shall testify of mo: And ye also hIiiiII bear witness, because ye , ; have been with liu: from, the beginning John I5:..fi, 27. "The foundation of financial indopendence is the savings account. Next comes the life insurance policy; then owner ship of your own home." So says Edwin Selvin w the Business Chronicle. "With these prirrtary means of savings availed of, the citizen becames a potential investor." But first a savings account, life insurance, a home. That's an economic lesson that might well be taught persistently in every school room and every homo. Hal Hoss, Socretafy of State, estimates that gas tax receipts will be two and a quarter million more in 1930 than in 1929. The tax goes up one cent a gallon January 1st and each year more gasoline is consumed. To partially offset the increased revenue is the decrease in license fees, particularly on old model Fords. There will be less burden in the form of license fees, more in the gas tank. Money available for road work will bo about the same. Certainly it should never be decreased. Road building has barely begun, considered in a broad sense. We will need more and more funds in the future as traffic demands increase. i As a mfijoiv-nieans of economy and tirmament reduction : the National Council for Prevention of War urges that this ' country abolish the battleship. With 18 of these vessels Vf font today, it says one-fourth of the naval personnel is re ; Qui.cd for their operation and an annual expenditure of fort million dollars. Battleships, the council argues, are ; out of d;.te, made obsolete by the airplane and by the ex iperiences of the last war. Scrap them and we save forty million a year. True enough. Cruisers, destroyers and subs are more protective according to our modern conception of naval warfare. But there are some experts who believe battleships have their uses. At any rale they have a psycho logical use as long as other nations include them in their navies. If England and Japan and Fiance and Italy agree to scrap all battleships, the move would be excellent. Pre paredness, whether efficient or otherwise, is a matter of rela tivity. If all other countries eliminate all armaments, we would bo quick to do likewise. But we cannot do the job alone. Past experience proves the folly of being less pre pared for war than a potential enemy.' POLITICAL CONVERSATION ' Speculation as to which way Eastern Oregon will go in the 1930 primaries is beginning to draw some political scouts into this section. Friends of Coventor Patterson have sounded out sentiment here the last few weeks and yesterday ,a gentleman from Salem addressed the Linns Club of La .Grande and pointed out Oregon's great need as a "dynamic governor in brief introductory remarks, lie was trying to put in a good lick for Senator Hull and spent some of the day telling those he met that Patterson's chief asset was .that "he hasn't done anything," and saying that there was a surprising sentiment for Hall in the western part or the state. Along towaid evening he didn't seem very much en 'couraged over Hall sentiment up this way. Political talk except among a very few politicians is not heavy in Eastern Oregon. And when the subject of the republican primaries does edge into the conversation Patterson is given all the advantage. Hall is hardly mentioned seriously here and we failed to find any evidence in the Willamette Valley of the growing sentiment fur him mentioned by yesterday's visitor. The statement that Patterson "hasn't done anything" which means anything sensational or spectacular is admir able praise in the eves of many Oregon citizens. The gov ernor has been quietly on the job as an efficient business executive. 'He is not spectacular by nature, which is a happy change that has won much approval. Hall may be the opposite and may therefore appeal to that class of citizenship that revels in turmoil and governing activity, lint Eastern Oregon isn't seriously concerned about it one way tir the other at this stage of the game, The (nice of wheat, (ho drv fall, the normal school football Reason, the i'iprouch of Christmas- these are far more interesting December topics.
