Municipalities Have Voted - " Bonds Liberally in Aid of Construction of Line. In ti.lh ill ! . 1p-Ur 1417th; vJCilO Friday Surprise . Jwanks STOCK PLAN IS CRITICIZED CENTRA ill STRAHQRN REQUEST i - Surpti Claimed by Som Tbt Oommnnjtl Olvlar Aid Should xc1t Boada ' Xatbar Tbu Stock. Central Oregon communities ar re sponding with liberality to the re quest of Robert E. Strahorn for aid In the financing of the Oregon, Call fornla & Eastern railroad which, when built, is to serve Crook, Klamath. Harney and Lake counties. Klamath Falls has voted $300,000 in municipal bonds; Burns, $125,000; Lakeview, $20,000. Bend has contri buted $36,000, and is preparing to vote $100,000 in bonds In aid of construe tlon. Surprise Valley citizens are tak ing steps to rote $100,000 In bonds. In return for the contributions of each of these municipalities the Ore gon, California &' Eastern railroad will Issue securities and communities investing- are to receive stock In the railroad. ' Criticism of Flan Proposed. This plan Is meeting with criticism on the ground, first, that communities which propose to give aid to the pro- - ject should receive bonds, not stock, and second, that If bonuses or subsi dies are to. be given, they should be given by the large landowners who .will be the principal beneficiaries from .the building of the road. Klamath Falls, Bend, Burns and all other n.unlcipalitles which contribute to the project are entitled to the same security that Is given to the eastern investor and on the same terms. In other words, Hhey should receive bends, not stock. In return for their contributions. - i; Bonds Preferable to Stock. : Railroad stocks are more specula tive, in value than, railroad bonds. The Investor In railroad stock, especially stock In a railroad not yet built, as sumes more risk . than the investor " who puts his money Into the railroad's bonds. The large landowners of east ern Oregon will profit most from the building of the Strahorn road, and . therefore it is reasonable to look to them to subscribe to the stock and to provide such bonu. s and subsidies as may be given. Xad Owners would Profit. Large owners of land in Crook Klamath. Lake and Jlaraey counties have - more reason to contribute to ward the building of the railroad than the communities. If each landowner who pay a taxes on an assessment of $10,000 or over should contribute $1 for each acre he owns, it is easy to Judge from the1 benefits brought to other regions by railroad construc , tion that the enhancement of actual . values would at least be $2 an acre. To Offer Bill That Soldiers May Vote Representative O. Laurgaard an nounced "Wednesday in case a special legislative session Is called he will Introduce a bill granting to the mem bers of the Oregon National Guard and such, other men who are in military service outside of the state the right to vote vrherever they may be. "Should Governor Witbycombe "find It necessary to call a special session on account of the crisis." said Mr. Laurgaard. "it would seem advisable that a measure should be introduced to give those who enlist opportunity to ote in such matters as are of great importance. A great many of the guardsmen and those who will leave for service are public spirited citizens and take a great Interest in public affairs." 1417TX nZSAT $6 and $6.50 Fjne Umbrellas Friday at $3:98 Choice of any 16.00 or 56.50 black umbrella in our -.entire stock -umbrellas for both men and women included.
