State Labor Commissioner o. P. Hoff,
in answer to attacks made upon his at
titude in enforcing the eight hour law
on public works, has written a letter to
The Journal defining his position as a
public servant. In Justification of the
definite stand he is taking. Mr. Hoff
writes:
"Much adverse criticism having 'been
made because of my determination to
enforce the eight hour law on public
worka, the same as other laws, I de
sire to answer so that the work of the
bureau, which is dealing with what Is
today the greatest question before the
American people; the labor question
should not be hampered by wrong con
clusions; "The laws coming under my Juris
diction .Ib enforce, like all laws, are
enacted! by the people of this state,
either direct through the Initiative or
by the legislature. I am hot responsi
ble fee the same. When an act Is
passed It Is either a good law, a faulty
law, or no law at all. If a good law
it should be enforced for Its value;
if a faulty law, it should be enforced
that the faults may be seen and cured;
If no law at all. or Its Intent obscure.
It is for the supreme court to decide.
"I believe all good men and women
on sober second thought will realize
that It is my sworn duty to see that
the-laws are enforced. 'Trimming by
officers settles nothing. I should
know what the law means, and the
people whom it affects should know
what It means.
"It is my duty to enforce the labor
laws, and I, believe the right thinking
people of this state, when they under
stand the eltuatlon, will back me up In
doing so, but whether they do or not,
believing I am right, I shall go ahead."
The first literary evening of the
Portland German Literary society will

A new idea in road building is sug
gested by 8. H. Moore of Corvallis.
Mr. Moore outlines his plan as fol
lows: "Let the state secure one or mors of
Its cement rock deposits, -then build
a branch of the penitentiary there and
put the life prisoners in the mill to
manufacture cement for road -use.
Next take the short term conviots and
put them, on the roads, leveling, drain
ing and hauling gravel. The concrete
base. If made of sufficient thickness
would make a good road when finished
with a top dressing of a. by-product of
petroleum. Gravel can b easily pro
cured and Its use would, eliminate the
expense of costly crushing plants. One
objection to putting prisoners to work
on the roads has been the cost of fre
quent removal Of camps. This could
bo overcome in this day of auto
trucks, whlcn could he used to carry
the men to and from tholr work and
then used to haul gravel, rock and ce
ment. "Iabor need not fear convict com
petition, because good roads are prac
tically unattainable at present prices
for material and labor, for there must
be some limit to taxation. A contract
let hero for pavement with concrete
base was at $1.35 per yard. By giving
the taxpayer the benefit of the con
tractors' profit and the difference in
tire price" of labor and cement. I ven
ture to say that the cost could be
brought down to 40 cents per yard or
less."
