- jVith only-about three weeks ljomaihiiif? iri'wHieti miry be
filed' the 'nominations for candidacy in' the election of city
rt)-timissioners, not' a. single candidate has appeared; Otto
ofitho present commissionors
xseek' re-election; and the other two Have riot made any-state-nilt:aS'tb
whether they will 'lie in the race or not;
. What-is the matter? Two: years, ago there' were seven
candidates for the three commission beithsi Ave city loyalty.
and jthe desire to serve the community dying out?- rjave we
ria leaders who are willing to assume the. responsibility of
piloting our city government?
in personal affairs that he has
fellow citizens?
Wor'TOfjill iha anirifnrl apllhnll
agti; in! which a. number1 of prominent local citizens contested?
lot1 two positions on the board ol education.' There was no
lack of loyalty or enthusiasm there in spite of the finan
ced difficulties which beset practically all governmental
bodies, hi this period. Why, then, the apparent energy dis
played in the school board contest1,; yet? a noticeable lack1' of
interest iii the city commission race?
There are plenty of problems to solve, and' there is plenty
of work to be-done, as anyone will readily admit. Courage
Otis; capable men1 are needed for, tho task, men with the wife
dorn'and'judgment to decide correctly upon matters' concern
ing community progress or the
cenfidence1 lir La Grande,, men with tho ambition and. fore
algfit1 to billld1 for the future for there is-mosU certainly
a; fur. brighter future for La Grande tlian present conditions
indicate. .
. VHht about the' municipal' airport proposal? Who knows
Bui- that! some day air transportation may mean' ns much' to
Itt Grande as the railroad? Someone interested; in that'
phase Of civic development should be 'in the. contest. 'j
And' then there is the problem! of supporting our band.
Trio cultural' background of a community is' just as essential
to' true' progress as business and industrial, opportunities.
Here is another problem that someone should-champion.
The high rates on city water with' which' all' water users
are thoroughly familiar offer another angle of attack.
Someone should enter tho raco pledged, to an honest and
practical attempt to straighten out this matter satisfactorily.
And' there are many other things that need careful1 atten
tion.i in addition: to- the matter of finances which, of course,
is' the' paramount issue at present. But who- is going to dp
: the. work? If no one wants to run for a place-on- the city
Commission; the present incumbents will' automatically con
tinue in' office, without any election, unless they should' de
cide, to hand in their resignations, in wliicK case the city
: manage!' would be let. as virtual dictator ot the city.
There aVe many men in La
ing-the position of city commissioner men. who should be
willing to-make a, sacrifice for the good of their community.
IP sortveono doesn't start the ball rolling soon, one or more of
our civic organizations should assume, the responsibility of
calling upon qualified citizens and persuading, them to be
i come candidates.
I Blit there is no time to waste, for the city charter provides
that nomination certificates be signed by. ten per cent of the
! voters and -filed. with tho recorder 31 days before the election,
which-will be October 8, three weeks from, next Saturday.
! Let's See some action !
' MAN IS NOT A MERB MACHINE. ' '
A hopeful prospect for the coming generation is that it
may not haVe to hoar tho exhortation, "Eat it; it's good
: for you." In the name of health education, dietetic faddists
during the- past decade have outlawed, pretty nearly every
food" that our' forebears favored; and have kept the con
scientious constantly worried over tho problem of opposing
proper nourishment to the "sinful apputites of the flesh."
And' now, hopefully, the tide seems to-be turning and com
rion' sense is coming to' tho rescue of the dietetically op
pressed. Recently one of the foremost medical authorities of the
world told the Uritish Medical Association that the "scienti
fic truth about all this diet business is to eat moderately;
taking ordinary mixed diet and don't worry about anything'.".
At Colgate University the coming semester research is to
be directed toward finding if there may not be direct benefit
from eating, not what may be academically determined to be
good-for one, but according to the individual's natural taste.
Dr. Donald A. Laird, of the department of psychology in that
institution, will have charge and in the advance statement of
his course says:
-, "There has been a tendency in diet work for the past de
cade' to treat man as a purely chemical machine working on
calories, vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, etc. Taste, odor,
and. appearance of food have boon largely neglected, and it
is these which will-occupy our attention, Authorities recog
nize' that the process of digestion is directly influenced by the
psychological factors as well as by tho chemical constituents
of the food eaten, and the eater's whole temperament may
be affected by good or bad digestion.

ANOTJII.lt IOOU OMKV IS SEEN '
Building statistics are usually re
garded as a barometer of business
conditions, ir they sun qua.iry ns
puch, thing. are beginning to bright
en up on the Pacific coast:
For the ten largest cities in three
const" states California, Oregon and
Washington showed a gain of 14
per cent in building operations' In
August over July. An Associated Press
survey ohows the aggregate value of
business started In August at $2,773.
000 In round figures for the 10 cities.
This compared with $3,443,000 In July.
Six of the 10 cities showed July-August
Increases,
Building figures for 1032. of course,
are far below thoae of previous years.
August, for instance, brought a ten-
city, total last year of $7,807,000, ns
compared with, the
$3,773,000 this
year.
It is necessary, however, to.mako
allowances for declaring costs In such
comparisons. Portland, for Instance,
actuully Isaucdimoro permits ln'AUfj
ust this, year than August last, .al
though the valuation figures wero
considerably lower this year. In none
of the cities do the number' of per
mits show the sllrlhk&go valuation
does.
Thore Is nnothcr bright feature to
the building report, White August
showed an increase over July, the fact
was that the experts had predicted a
10 per cent drop.
Prom here and there nowndays
thero are reports that stir the souli
of tho optimists. The building statis
tics announcement for August should
qualify. -Klamath Palls Herald.

Approximately 60,000 skilled, semi
skilled and unskilled' workers will re
ceive direct employment on highway
construction in the Pacific northwest
during the' next few months, It has
been estimated following a tabulation
of state and' federal monies now
hva liable to state highway depart
ments of Oregon, Washington, Idaho
and Montana, and to, the U. S. bur
eau of public roads for expenditure
in thote states.
Ah additional' arthy of men, estl-
