"Yes" or No Exposition "Yea," November 19th or no Exposition ! Definite decision has been made by the Oregon 1925 Exposition committee to go down the line for the $2,000,000 special tax measure on that platform and no other. Conference after conference was held, and it was the united sentiment of the largo group of orominent businessmen who arc backing the Exposition project that the public must be given to understand thnt the special city election Saturday, November 19th. will be nn ultimatum to the committee. That if the tax meas ure is approved they will go ahead prepared to launch a still more vigorous and extensive state-wide campaign for the $3,000,000 tax measure next Spring. But, if the voto on tho tax proposition is adverse, the plan to continue agitation for an Exposition in 1925 will automat ically die. "We have weighed the matter with the utmost candor and with the best judgment at our com mand," explained Ira F. Powers, campaign chairman, 'land we havo come to the unalterablo con clusion that the vote of Novem ber 19th will be accepted as a solemn mandate to the Exposi tion organization, It must be either the tax plan or no plan at all. "Scores of leading citizens hnve been consulted; tho history of the Fair planB to date have bepn outlined to them; we have shown the virtual impossibility of financing the stupendous en terprise through private sub scription alone, and our cam paign committee, our general exposition board and other citi zens whose judgment we hold in high regard are all of the same 1 mind. Tne Exposition cannot be financed except through the spe cial tax plan which has been ap proved so strongly by tho lead ing men of Portland and repre sentative citizens of every section of the land. "Many persons seem to have the idea we are bluffing when we say: 'No tax, no Exposition,' but we are not. and we want to serve notice hero and now thnt our I campaign organization will stand pat on that platform. "It may bo well to state, also, i that we hnve sought to find some one who could present to us a practicaV alternative plan for financing the Exposition, and so far not a single plan has been nresonteu to us that ap pcarcd to have the slightest chance in the world of supplant ing successfully the special tax plun. "We hnve, therefore, issued instructions to our entire staff of workers, to our speakers' bu roau, to all auxiliaries, to our general publicity stall, that the public must understand exnetly where we stand: No tax, no Exposition."
