Lazi : ness is good, nature, gonq 'to seed. Hustjing is energy plus i persistence.,; The reputation for leing a 'hustler is the best ' mti-oduction' ti) eticcess that any man can have. Confidence f and a good purpose are the vital elements of success. Hustl- ing is the essential force of business. It is the power to marshal your resources recruit the slackers among your 1 abilities. Ambitions are always to be found behind success. They are the stokers who fire the lxilers under the will to j win. And the difference between the will and the wish is simply a difference in the degree of heat under the will. If I you are ambitious it means that you have within you already the beginning of success. The real power in ambition is in its intensity. But its measure of achievement is a mntter of control and tireless effort. That's what nvikes success so elusive. , ''; . . i '! yostfrdiiy of the campaign of civil disobedience was us stirring and picturcMriuo an it may be far reach I np.

He may manufact ure salt uhervver fce wishes and whervver tonvenierit."- Continu ing, the statement urged villas: -ent everywhere to break the salt laws', and then said: "It should bo made clear to the villagers that the breach is open and that such conduct is In no way stealthy." In conclusion it said; "This war against the silt tax should be continued during 'National Week that is, up to April 13. Those en- j gaged In this sacred work should devole themselves to vigorous propaganda for a boycott again foreign cloth and the prohibition of liquor. I am preparing a mes sage now for the women of In dia, who.

It is worth it. An accurate and complete census is as important to a government as an audit and inventory of a private business. In fact a census is a national inventory. This enumeration will produce definite statistics on popula tion shifts, unemployment, social conditions, literacy, national origins, family life and radio distribution which will furnish the tools and raw materials with which departments and bu reaus in V'ashington will work during the next 10 years to the economic, political and social betterment of the individual and nation. 1 1 i $108,000,000 FOR GOVERNMENT" If Oregon has a million population, the cost of government to the people is equal to ?108 for every man, woman and child in the state. This, according to the Oregon Voter's tabula tion of public revenues, is for federal, state and local govern ment purposes'-r?108,-l20,()00. A lot of money, but less per capita than several neighlxiring states and Mow what many eastern stales-'iay for the privilege of being protected, edu cated and regulated through governmental agencies. Federal government, the army and navy, the convenience of postal service, the privilege of having memlers of con gress to try to cure our many ills, prohibition enforcement, census tabulations, department of commerce services, federal farm loard activities these and many other national activ ities receive support from Oregon to the extent of over twenty millions in taxes. Schools, police and fire protection, paved streets and the convenience of water supply and sewage disposal, highways :ind market roads, new laws from the state legislative hop per, supervision of fish and game, of corporations and in- i-urance companies, of banks and factories, of utilities and elections tnese and scores f additional things require the expenditure of some .-.eventy-fuur million by state, county, municipal and school governing units. Seine activities are self-sustaining and others are financed by direct taxation. The grand total represents what the ma jority of the voteis have determined is necessary for reason ably comfortable and secure existence. And while there are hundreds of different governing activities, three items require ; the great mr.j-.iity of the total. These are schools, high ways, past and future wai-s. By comparison, the other cx-Ix-tim: items ait ridiculously small. And thtough the firt two education and travel this and other nations are nuking the greatest progress toward the elimination of the third. Government costs money. Especially in a nation with a highly developed civilization such as ours. The more we pro gress, the nvire complex our living lecomes and the more it .vill cost to regulate that complexity. But most Oregonians nd most Amciicans believe it is worth it. At any rate they eep rather steadily at the job and we do not see very many of then fighting- to jfet out of this countiy and into!
