Newspaper Page TextTHE MORNING OREGOXIAN, THURSDAY, NOVE3IBER 3, 1921 R. A, BOOTH DEFENDS HIGHWAY BOND SALE 95 of 100 Grade Crossings Declared Eliminated. STATISTICS ARE QUOTED Speaker Before Contractors Denies Charges Newspaper Made Against CoinmlbHion. Editorial Implication of a Portland newsvaDsr that the Oregon state men way commission had taken inadvisable action in a recent iiue of lonaterm bonds rather than the ehort-term form was denied by- R. A. Booth, chairman of the commission. In a speech before the Pacific northwest chapter of the Associated General Contractors last night at the Multnomah hotel. The chargs of another editorial writer that "very little attention has been paid to th elimination of grade crowing also was denied Dy Air. Booth, who presented statistics to prove that this criticism was unjust. Stand la Kzplalaed. The press of Oregon has given splendid support on the whole to the highway commission," said Mr. Booth. "I am taking this opportunity to ex nlaln the stand of the commission on selling long-term bonds at this time and to show what the commission has accomplished in elimination of grade crossings. "We asked and were granted au thorlty by the legislature to pay for highway work and construction by the sale of short-term bonds. We have sold S9.b00.000 worth or bonds. Including short-term bonds to the value of 13.000.000. "Before any short-term bonds be come due we will have reached the constitutional limit of the bonding power of the state unless legislation la enacted extending the limit In the meantime. Therefor we must not sell too great an amount of short term bonds because no provision Is made for refunding. Hlgk Rate Expected. "We do not anticipate low Interest rates when the Industries of the coun try revive and industrial conditions are as satisfactory as ws hope they will be In four years. "The demand for money In the In dustries of the country at tho date of maturity of short-term bonie will hold up the interest rate It the coun try is prosperous. "We believe that by selling bonds In both long-term and short-terra forms we will meet an average con dition and minimise risk. If the mem bers of the highway commission could foresee the condition of the bond mar ket four years from now with ab solute accuracy, we would be able to command Important positions In Wall street. Crossings Arc Kllmlnated. "In the matter of eliminating grade crossings the commission has a rec ord of accomplishment of nearly 100 per cent of the required) work. Fifty one out of 100 grade crossings have been eliminated by relocation, and 23 othrys by building over or under the road. "Of th remaining 26 crossings, 21 have been acted upon. The five cross ings left to be accounted for are situ ated within the limits of municipali ties, where the commission has not full Jurisdiction. Thus we have taken care of 95 out of the 100 grade cross ings on state highways." At the Theaters. Hclllg. BY JOSEPH MACQITEEN. WITH a fine presentation of Men delssohn's "Symphony No. 4, Opus 90, otherwise known as the I'.allan, as the principal instrumental event, and with the valued assistance of Arthur Hackett. tenor of New York, as vocal soloist, the concert last night of the Portland) Symphony orchestra the first of the new musi cal season of 1921-22 was a brilliant success. The Heillg theater was filled with an enthusiastic audience. Mr. Hackett had never sung In con cert In this city, and he made good. He Is one of the best, honest-to-good-ness tenors who has sung In this sec tion for a long time. He has a sil very, opulent, charming lyric tenor voice of satisfactory volume, and his diction Is painstaking and beautifully ditlnrL It Is a pleasure to hear such a finely-trained native American tenor as .Mr. Hackett. With orchestral ac companiment, Mr. Hackett sang in fervent style th recitative. "Deeper ndi IVeper Still" snd the aria. "Waft Her Angels." from Handel's oratorio, "Jeplha." It was a noble utterance and) a dignified one. Mr. Hackett was received cordially and was awarded five recalls, but he did not then sing an extra. After the Intermission. Mr. Hack ett big chance came with his bril liant rendition of the "Flower-Song" from Bizet's "Carmen," and a furious recall was registered as a hint that he was desired to sing some more. With Constance Freeman Hackett (Mra. Arthur Hackett) as piano ac companist, Mr. Hackett sang in su perb fashion, and always In fine voice, these extras: "Hansons La Gigue" (Poldowski), "NlchaVo" (Mannaxucca) and "Thou Art Like Unto a Flower" (l.lsit). the latter being Interpreted with charming sentiment and feeling. Mrs. Hackett is a capable and Inspir ing accompanist. Mr. Hackett's con cert trip Is directed through the Pa cific northwest by Steers Coman. The "Ital!an"ymphony of Mendels sohn is the most spiritually beautiful f the four symphonies left by that distinguished composer. The other Jhree are: "Opus 11. in C major": Opus 8. In A minor" Scotch, and Opus 107, In D minor." reformation. The "Italian Is "a quiet, fairy -like web of delight of the sugar-candy style," as one quaint, ancient chroni cler wrote. It is always gay and rep resents the composer at his happiest. When Mendelssohn visited England, Thackeray, the novelist and critic, thus wrote of him: "His face Is the most beautiful I ever saw like what 1 Imagine our Savicu's face to have heen." That element certainly is re flected In th "Italian" symphony and the men of the orchestra gave it careful, even, finished performance. It was a treat to hear such good work done by the string family of the or chestra, particularly the first violins. The deep, sonorous message of the bus viols was a delight. The "Ballet Music, 'Henry VI IV " composed by that gifted Frenchman. Salnt-Scens, was a pleasant diversion, and brightened up the serious pro Kramme. But its title is a pusaie. Its music Is largely Scotch. It reflects Lowland Scotch, or Doric tunes, and Frederick Starke, first oboe, charm ingly with his oboe Imitated th music of a pair of bagpipes. The first two parts hav these titles: "Intro duction: Entrance of the Clans" and "Scotch Idyll." jryw, th first part of the music in the Introduction clearly I Englieh. There never was any recT cgnlzed king in Scotland called Henry VIII, but there was one In England, who was born In 1491 and died in 1547, at an age when Scotland and England were unfriendly often ene mies and were each ruled by their own kings. It would seem that the title of this ballet music needs, alter ation. The orchestra played it su perbly. Csrl Denton again made a good conductor, alert, prompt and one who always held the musical forces under him in firm control. Th orchestra begins this year well, with a larger subscription list than ever. The latter Is not yet dosed, and there is room for more. The next regular concert of the symphony series takes place January 25. 1922, with Harold Bauer, pianist, as soloist. ' AflBUCMflTllJie MQVIE ACTOIVS CASE IS SET BACK WEEK.

TAX EVASION OPPOSED GOVERXOR HART CONDEMNS SPLIT OF COMMUNITY GOODS. People In Washington Not Entitled to Pay Any Less In Income Tax Than OUier States, Is View. THE OREGOSTVIlN NEWS BUREAU. Washington, D. C. Nov. 2. Governor Hart of Washington Is opposed to permitting husband and wife in com munity property states, cr which Washington Is one, to divide their property for the purpose of comput ing Income taxes, thus reducing the surtaxes or avoiding th payment of any taxes at all. He has made his views known in a telegram to Gov ernor Parker of Louisiana, who had sought th support of the Washing ton governor for a movement to pro tect the community property rights of certain states in th payment of income taxes. A copy of Governor Hart's reply to Governor Parker received by Senator Poindexter today reads: '"Your telegram October SI. I can not agree with you that community consisting of husband and wife in community property states is entitled to d-lvide their community business to avoid payment of income tax. I do not believe that our people are en titled to pay any less for the support of the government than do ttie people living in states where the common law rule of property applies. Posnibly Often a cowpath has been allowed to become a village street, and as the village expanded, tradition has made the winding way an expression of a cow's will. Habit is always forging chains to enslave us, so that what has been found bearable by the fathers is accepted by the sons. '- Who cannot recall the coffee-pot Mother put on the stove early in the morning, warning' us not to let it boil over? As children, we were not permitted to drink tea or coffee, because it would stunt our growth or make us nervous and irritable. When older, however, we craved a hot drink with meals, and custom gave us our tea or coffee. Finally, upon the instructions of the doctor, Mother gave up her tea and coffee. But that meant nothing in our young lives. Our vitality was then strong enough to throw off any ill effects. But our time came, and we learned by experi ence that we could not drink tea or coffee. When we had it for breakfast it put our nerves on edge. When we drank it at the evening meal, we tossed abotit in wakefulness most of the night. And then we found Postum, a pure cereal beverage, free from the harmful drug, caffeine, in tea and coffee. We liked the rich, satisfying flavor of Postum and also the better health which resulted. And, too, we were surprised to. find how many of our neighbors had made the same discovery had learned the value of "health first.'" This unusual SALE is fast drawing to a close. A Sale for the Public No Cars Sold to Dealers Open EveningM and Sunday congress might consider the matter of an exemption for each spouse constituting the community as a means of avoiding the constitutional question and I am i,a suggesting to our senators."
