Industry- Keep Out!”
W OULD YOU, A S A P A T R IO TIC C ITIZE N OF OREGON, PLACE SUCH
A SIGN ON THE BORDERS OF THE STA TE ?
That is exactly what you will help to do if you do nothing to prevent the
passage of measure Xo. 314 and 315 on the November ballot entitled, “ Con
stitutional Amendment Fixing Legal Rate o f Interest in Oregon.”
This measure proposes to limit the rate o f interest in Oregon to 5 per
cent. You can, by law, fix the rate o f interest in Oregon, but you cannot, by
law, force the loaning of money in this state, when a much liigher rate can be
secured elsewhere. The passage o f this measure would force the withdrawal
o f the millions o f foreign capital which is today loaned on factories, business
and real estate in the state and send your local money owners outside of
the state to better investments,
Passage of this measure would mean foreclosure of thousands o f mort
gages; would result in financial paralysis, and would mean widespread unem
ployment.
You, no doubt, understand the visiousness of this measure, but have you
talked to your neighbors and friends about it? We urge you to do everything
you can to defeat this measure.
Oregon's reputation as a sound state for in
vestments requires that this measure be overwhelmingly defeated.
