He also declares in favor of securing a speedy determination of the question as to whether or not he may resign the office of secretary of state and by so doing not surrender the office of gov ernor. He asserts that his most urgent reason for wishing a determination of This question lies in the fact that he be lieves three Independent minds should .-onstitute the important state boards, and If this result can be attained he expresses himself as anxious that it be brought about. Importaat Period I t'.overnor oleott in his statement a s: "In assuming the duties of governor 1 am keenly appreciative of the un usual responsibilities devolving upon the office of chief executive because of the reconstruction period now before us. In my opinion this is a time when there is as great need for a vigorous Ilow of patriotism and loyalty as when e were vending thousands of our boys ierscas to tight for the cause of lib' erty.

Vailed Support Sought. For the sake of the well-being of this state. I feel that this united sup port should be given to the governor. regardless of the individual who might occupy the office of chief executive. This :a no time fur the display of fac tional strife. .It is no time for putting politics above- patriotism. It is a time for all of us to put our shoulders to the wheel for the good of common csuse. it id a time for Oregon to forge ahead. The legislature has provided for a big road-building programme. The people will soon have opportunity to express their opinion of a commend able reconstruction programme. I be lieve the people, o:i June 3. will ap prove the reconstruction bond issu It is important that they should. They ought to lend Impetus to private enter prise. It ought to encourage capital to seek opportunity to connect up with industry. And if some employment Is provided by the expenditure of public funds until industry again catches Its breath and hits u stride in step with the times, the most urgent and imme diate crisis of the reconstruction period will have been bridged. "It shall be my endeavor to. encour age industry to the fullest extent of my power, and to use the Influence of this office to promote that harmony and fairness between employer and em ploye that are necessary for industrial success and a happy citizenship. Efficiency Is Expected. There is to be no upheaval in the state government, caused by the re moval of appointees and their replace ment with new appointees. I shall ex pect business efficiency from all de partments and positions coming under the jurisdiction of the governor. I shall expect eacn appointee to give the slate the same conscientious service which would be required of him If he were In private employment. If there are any who cannot do this, they will be given opportunity to find employment else where. In these matters I do not ex pect to deviate from the policy which I have consistently followed while serv ing as secretary of state. "State institutions, with the excep tion of the state penitentiary, are under the Jurisdiction of the state board of control. As a member of that board I shall continue favoring the policy of giving the various superintendents free hand and to hold them entirely responsible for proper business man agement. They shall have complete control over the employes under them. 'The warden of the penitentiary will have equally as complete authority to employ and discharge his help, but as the responsibility for the administra tion of the prison will reet upon me I shall expect to direct it policy. I hope to do this in a manner that will be approved by the people of the state, Three Votes Are Favored. "In Ftepping into the office of gov ernor as a result of a vacancy caused by death, under the provisions of the constitution I a'so remain secretary of state, entitled to draw the salaries of both offices. But. as I have already announced. I shall draw the salary of onlv one office, if a way can be found for immediately presenting to the court the question of whether I may resign the office of secretary or state without forfeiting my right to continue to hold the office o governor. I will take ad vantage of it. I wieh to have that point settled as early as possitle. and If the courts hold mat J may ao so I shall resign the office of secretary of state and appoint a successor. But If this cannot be done, then I shall not draw the salary of secretary of state unless it should be for public purposes to meet some emergency which might arise in connection with the official duties of one or the other of the two offices I now hold. I shall Slot draw the salary for my personal benefit. The most urgent reason wny i wisn to obtain an early determination by the courts of this question is to make it Dossible to again have three mem bers on the board of control, with three Independent minds giving considera tion to state problems, but if It should develop that 1 cannot resign the office of secretary of state, thus forcing me to retain two Votes on the state board.

Kelley, a lumber salesman of Omaha, had a pair of shoes re-soled with Nealin Soles. Mr. Kelley does much walking and has worn these shoes constantly. Ha says "they are still good for another ten months of wear." Good shoe stores carry Neolin-soled shoes in many styles for men, women and children. They cost you no more than shoes that give less wear. Neelin Soles are also available everywhere for re-soling. Remember these soles are created by science to be what soles should be. They are comfortable and waterproof as well as long-wearing.
