SOME REASONS WHY SALEM GROWS
' Likely more than half the readers of The Statesman will
be surprised at both the size and the scope of operations of
the Salem Tile & Mercantile Company, an illustrated de
scription of which appears on the Pep and Progress pages
And there will be other surprises of the same kind from
Thursday to Thursday, for the next year, as this campaign
progresses
A campaign designed to get the Salem district better
acquainted with itself; better informed concerning its insti
tutions and its men of pep and, progress; prouder of itself,
and more confident concerning the great things that can and
ought to be done in this district and in this city.
The Salem Tile & Mercantile company is doing a great
work in furnishing the products to drain the more than two
million acres of land in the Willamette valley that need drain
ing in order tolncrease their crops 25 to 50 per cent. This
. will add many millions annually to the value of the crops
from these lands; and it will add enormously to the money
value of the lands.
Then this concern is making about fifty different kinds
of materials that canbe fashioned from clay, and that are
, useful in the building operations of the towns and cities and
the farms.
Salem has many such industrial concerns now, that have
been developed from nothing or from small beginnings in the
past few years. These are some of the reasons why balem
trows
Why there was an increase of school population of over
10 per cent the past year; and, by the same sign, an increase
of over 10 pe,r cent in the total population of the city
And why this increase will no doubt continue,
v Do you know what this will mean? It will mean a city
of twice the present size here in 1930. And that will mean
opportunities for increased business in mbst lines herethat
are scarcely realized by most of our people.
Salem should stand by her institutions and her men of
push and vision. There should be full cooperation and ap
preciation. That is the spirit that builds cities and com
munities. It is a spirit that has been developing here of late;
but it needs much further development and a more general
spirit of cooperation. - j -
, The Salem dehydration plantwith the cannery in con
nection, is rendering great assistance in taking care of the
apple crop, to say nothing of various other fruit and vege
table crops. This is one of the most useful of our industrial
enterprises. ;
The Statesman has lately had several communications
and Tjersonal calls asking for information on the mint indus
try. There are many farmers of this section proposing to
put out mint. Next Thursday, or ome Thursday very soon,
The Statesman will devote a lot of space again to this in
dustry, as it did twice in the Salem Slogan campaigns.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 12.
Adoption by the senate' of the Re-
publican compromise plan for re
peal of all the transportation tax
es on next January 1 was com
pleted today with the acceptance
without a dissenting vote of an
amendment removing the tax on
parcels post packages. Senator
Reed, Democrat, Missouri. Fought
to extend the repeal to levies on
messages by telegraph, telephone.
cable an'l radio, but his motion
was voted down, 32 to 26.
committee amendments to the
bill accepted incluued those im
posing license taxes on brokers
and others and manufacturers'
taxes of 2 cents a gallon on cereal
beverages, still drinks and un fer
mented Iruit juices; 7 Vi cents a
gallon on finis-lied fountain syr
ups and 5 cents a pound on car
bonic acid gas.
C2ards Are Gummed
Until the c'jewing gum tax
was reached the senate made fair
ly rap'd progress on the bill. But
there t stuck for nearly two
hours with a discussion of chew
ing gum, tariff and other sub
jects. A Republican proposal to
repeal the 2 per cent tax on this
Bum was opposed by Senator Reed
who said the senate had voted to
retain $28,000,000 in taxes upon
senders and receivers of messages
by wire and radio while it was
proposed to "refund one-twenty-
eighth of that amount to V rig
Bargain Charged
'Who made this bargain?"
asked Senator Reed with refer
ence to the compromise plan to
knock out the chewing gum tax.
Wlio overturned the action of
the committee? When was it
agreed to? It demands an ex
planation when a gentleman can
escape $1,000,000 in taxes on
something that is useless and
worthless. Wrat was the influ
ence that reached behind tho
doors and took the tax off Mr.
Wrigley?"
Senator Watson, Republican,
Indiana, said the information be
fore the finance committee was
that factories of the American
Cbfcle company were closed down
alid that the removal of the tax
had "been suggested to get those
plants started up again. He de
clared that so tar as the commit
tee knew, Mr. Wrigley did not
care about the tax; that he never
had asked that it be removed.
Fun Poked at "Bloc"
During Senator Reed's address
there was reference to the agri
cultural "bloc" and Senator Mos
es. Republican. New Hampshire,
wanted to know how many agri
culturalists were in that "bloc".
This led later to an address by
Senator Ashurtst, Democrat, Ari
zona, who declared the time had
come to quit referring derisively
to the agricultural "bloc". He
warned that it was composed of
Democratic and Republican sen
ators who wern determined to get
legislation through the senate for
the benefit of the farmers and
LONDON, Oct. 12. With tta
announcement today that General
Pershing had accepted the British
government's invitation to place
the American congressional medal
on the tomb of the unknown sol.
dier in Westminster Abbey, the
misunderstanding resulting from
tne deferred invitation ended. It
has been planned that the cere
mony will take place next Mon
day. It is expected detachments of
troops from' the Rhineland will
parade while representatives of
the army, navy and air forces will
be present when the medal is laid
on the grave.
A reciprocal honor by Great
Pritain to the American unknown
soldier is under consideration.
The honor will be the Victoria
Cross or a special medal voted by
parliament.
