The call Is for a change that will permit the legal pur chase and possession of Intoxicating liquor and the ending of the condi tions that have grown up around th liquor truffle as It now exists. Some day In the not very distant future there will be. we believe, a change In the federal laws on this subject. When that day comes there should be, we further believe, a co ordination of state with the federal law with such modifications as may be developed through the operation of local option.

INCOME TAX AMENDMENT Tho last of three measures devised to brinjr about tax l'eduction and equalizntion in Oregon will appear on the bal lot ns the result of initiative petitions sponsored by the Oregon Taxpayers' Equalization and Conservation League. In this column we discussed the other two measures a few days ago and recommended a "Yes" vote. The income tax measure is entitled "Personal Income Tax Law Amendment Bill Purpose: To further reduce property taxes by advancing the tax rates on net personal incomes in excess of $5,000 from 5 to a maximum of S per cent ; sub stituting an exemption from the total tax of 10 for a single pereon, $20 for a married person, head of family, or husband and wife,. and $1.00 for each dependent, instead of the present income exemptions of ? 1,500, $2,500, and $100 respectively; and amending the provisions of the law so as to apply to the entire income of residents from personal service." The editor of the Portland Oregonian opposes the bill on this ground: "It is the business of the general public now tott measure thev are uncertain. reject tax increases Of OVCry form to Compel bv this means inclined to luw It because oermanr has "lowered her slchts" of objections to such final account, thn Rll-mon-tinn of tlliwo fllllftioiH! nf crnvrnninf u-liir-li sir'"'0" nt 10 rfSl5!"' elr votes In 'to the extent that all she seeks to and the settlement thereof.

It will be remembered that Governor Meier dispensed with uq slate tax on lvai property wnen income, excise, and m-jtiwip expression win n mumter tangibles taxes were instituted, leaving- propertv taxes forl11 Thrti cst4 the support of the local goveranient enti.vly. But the iv S turn from the income, intangibles, and excise taxes has fallen chv instead of mereir to the kmc Vl i IU OltVl Ctll V.M-IIV IIIIIVO till. IIIll'lUi: lt. 1 Itll. 1 ViVCCVt, the state must resort to the property tax again. The only other alternative is a drastic curtailment of the functions of our state government regardless of pain or re grets, as the Oregonian suggests. Hut when the people of iiut. dry conviction when m the state try to eliminate those functions of government Wwho rtanT - ' which we can temporarily do without, it seems that almost .ch.w"ihe rwuit wetoeyMprel- eveiyuiing is necessaiy. Ana, uioivver, mere are certain long tiiiK obligations which must bo met in spite of dwind ling tax receipts. ITie Oregonian advances the theory that an increased in- the expected charge in the im! come tax win tinve out our present state industries ana pre-invent others from coming in, since men with monev will pre-j We twvsuire this posubutty but for to invest it where they do not have to pay -such highTS? Z Z income taxes. That is probably true to a certain extent: but) nature at the change m the federal must we tax property to the point of confiscation in orderl1"' u 1 chvr to encourage mdustry? Where do we profit if the state ureson mioum reunn wr takes away our pnuvrty (through excessive taxation) in order to persuade wealthy nven to come in and buy it up ? Tlie general opinion seems to be that the proposed, change in tho income tax broadening the Ivise and increasing the rates on the larger incomes is a wise measure and perfect ly fair to all. It is no burden on the smaller incomes, since a married man with an income of less than $1,500 would pay no tax at all ; and the man who boasts an income of more than $5,000 in these times should be willing to bear the in creased tax, instead of forcing it upon the owner of property which is producing no revenue or barely enough to offset de preciation. MT. KYKRESTS CHALLENGE The world's tallest mountain is going to lv assailed once more. Early next year a party of Englishnwn will leave for TiU-t in an attempt to climb to the top of Mount Everest. This is a job that has never been done, for Mount Everest rises more than St .000 feet above sea level and puts almost insuperable obstacles in the way of climbers. Some lv.en have ltvt their lives trying to get to the top. All who have tried it have suffered to the limit of physical endunii-.ee. And climbing Mount Everest, or any other mountain, is from the utilitarian standpoint about the most completely useless thing a msn can try to do. There is nothing up there except a lot of bare rock and ice and a perpetual snow storm. The race will be neither richer, happier nor wiser if someone finally cvts to the top, Tho fortunate man himse'f wort nv-ke any money out of it. Why, then, should people try it? And why should t'-e attempt be. for the rest of us. not merely exciting to road about but actually uplifting, and knieht'y. and g'amorous? The answer, of course, is that Mount Everest is a chal lenge to the human spirit. A mountain chmlvr. some years ago, who was asked why he was going to nmke the atttsr.pt, replied in candid surprise, "Why because it's there." And that, after all. is the explanation "because it's there." It rises bleak and threatening, a Cod-given creation to test a man's courage and skill and endurance to the very utnwst. And the human soul, having a seed of immovt.-.lity hidden somewhere within it. cannot willingly let such a test go unsampled. i;n,),;n(r js pe-hap the purest form of sport there is. In it a man contests with his own body. He tascf his ; and his physical hardihiw) into the scales to see whether he is the man he hopes he is. The very' uselessncss of his effort proves its worth. He is contending for an inner satisfaction which is the greatest prite any sport can pos sibly offer.
