J LA GRANDE STORE LA GRANDE WILL UMOJN TOURNEY (Continued from Page One) A New York womnn made two million dollars while her husband spent eight years in jail. ;' Fortunately having1 'a liusband in jail doesn't assure such asuccess generally or "wo'd liave to spend u lot of money on new jails. , "Let La Grande Men Do La Grande Work" was a slogan voiced at the annual dinner of the carpenters last night, one that struck a responsive chord in every person present. Con stant employment, good wages, better buying power, better business, a better community. How aptly this applies to the carpenters of La Grande is shown by the fact that. 94 per cent of the members of the local carpenters union own their own homes here. Unlike the proverbial shoemaker's children, they and their families profit in comfort and enjoyment from their own'craftsmanship. Which is something to be proud of. A high percentage of home ownership is indicative of a .high type of citizenship. What group could better argue the faithful practice of the slogan "Let La Grande Men Do La Grande Work?" Surely the policy of preference for local labor finds approval throughout the community and not only among the workmen themselves. It's a basic thing in the scheme of community prosperity. Everybody benefits by its observance. Over Night News VOTIIK AtiAIXST J'ltOM I H1TIO.N NEW YORK.

Leaders of dry orgnnlzalions in tlie cast arc urging thbir members to refrain from expressing: themselves in the Liter ary Digest prohibition straw vote. .They say that the! poll will bo misleading regardless of the totals and should be ignored. Probably very few people will pay much, attention to this recommendation, but the dry who refuses to send in his ballot will actually injure the dry cause. In spite of what prohibition organizations say, tho Digest poll will bo recog nized as indicating tho public sentiment quite fairly. So well have previous polls been able to forecast presidential elections that there is nothing to indicate u straw ballot on prohibition would be less indicative. " After all, why should peoplo quarrel with the poll? It is a subject of general in terestand tho Digest is quite naturally seeking news matter that will qualify in that respect. Although its policy is supposed to be "wet" (according to severe critics, "all wet"), flic wording of the ballot is rather favorable to the strict prohibitionist. It asks a vote on one of three questions: Strict prohibition enforcement, modification to permit light wines and beer, and a return to the old saloon method. On tho surface, that allows a fair expression of opinion, but in fho minds of many people the solution is not to be had by any of the three. Some people probably a great majority would prefer strict and complete enforcement, but they doubt if such n thing is possible at the present lime. Others are anxious to be rid of the bootlegger and attendant evils but think light wines and beer would not do it. They prefer some system of government control that would cut' out present lawlessness and remove the prcsdnt glamor for youth of a forbidden thing. Very few peoplo want a return to the saloon. So the Digest ballot, by giving no opportunity for expression to the advocates or government control, throws numerous votes into the dry column those who oppose bold tho wine and beer scheme and the old saloon. Whatever the outcome of the poll we are inclined to think that many former dry votes will appear in the wet columns. Not because they want great freedom in drinking, either for themselves or others, but because tho laxity of enforcement in the last decade has convinced them that absolute prohibition isn't practical, that the present variety is more injurious than some form of modification. Ardent drvs will argue that it hasn't had n fair trial, that ten years is too short a time for such a revolutionary thing to prove itself. And so it goes. Probably ten years from now there will be just as much controversy on the same subject, lie that as it may, everything indicates that the prohibition amendment will continue to be a part of the federal constitution for a long, long time. FIND IT HERE Copy for this column mart be lu by 9 a. ru by spirited clashes between wets and drys In the membership,- the club adopted a resolution . which held that the eighteenth amend ment "is disruptive of our federal system, in that Jl. is destructive of tho rights of the stales," and urj,red representatives of tho republican party in both houses of cotmress to advocate the voto for its repeal "in order to restore tho American form of government."
