Various Bills Appearing
Before Legislature v
Herbert Gordon, representative
from Multnomah county gare a
rapid-fire talk before the meet
ing of the Marion-Polk county
Realtors' association at the Mar
ion hotel yesterday noon.
"The tendency of . the present
day legislation la primarily selfish,
usually with the Intent ot regulat
Ing the actions of the other fel
low. Consequently, legislation
sometimes is apt to be carriecf too
far. Many bills that are introduc
ed before the state legislature are
framed from a selfish viewpoint
and aimed towards ' selfish ends.
From a public viewpoint they are
no good, fand- will work" ."more
harm to he, group that introduces
them than- good." ' l -;
No harm will result from this
tendency; however, if careful con
sideration , is given the bills before
they are passed, was the remark
of the' speaker.
Mr. Gordon stated that the aim
of the Realtor1 should be to secure
greater stability among proper
ties, whrj would result In lower
taxes, and In turn bring greater
prosperity! ? The rewards of the
past legislation, will , be . reaped
during the nextfew years,' accord
ing to Cordon, who commented
upon the! good roads program that
. the state legislature has 'put
through 'The welfare of the state
is considered as a whole, instead
' of one certain center, was another
' pertinent statement of the speak
. er.' Alth$gh Portland reaps the
greatest, benefits of state develop
ment, she 'prospers to the extent
that the entire state prospers. .
; Mr. Cordon opposed . the child
t labor amendment because he dis
liked the e43"bachment of the fed
eral government upon state af
fairs, -in' : ...
"I think ( Children should" be
suppressed given some hardship
to make them inured to hardship.
because the children of today are
pampered in their gro w th' I think
the children should get some of
the hard knocks of life. In order
that they may be made used to the
realities of this life." -

W. Stayton Getting Back of
Movement and Little Dif- s
ficulty Expected
WEST STAYTON, Or., Feb. 5.
(Special to The Statesman.) The
West Stayton Community club
members are enthusiastic regard
ing this season's prospects. I :
The regular monthly meeting
of the club 'was held Tuesday eve
ning, Feb.-3.. An unusually large
attendance was on hand to at
tend to community work. About
75 members and friends packed
the hall. .
Definite promise of a pickle
plant to be located here was given
by M. Thomason and Mr. Rich,
provided a- minimum of 50 acres
can be contracted for. It is ex
pected that little difficulty will be
experienced In obtaining this num
ber of acres Inasmuch as reliable
farmers ! who have had practical
experience in cucumber raising
state their net s income per acre
was in 'the -neighborhood of $200.
Prospects of alfalfa becoming
a paying farm crop in this section
are brightening. Some experi
mental: lots seeded last year on
well drained soil with Inoculated
seed are growing nicely now. 'It
has been found that lime applied
to the soil is beneficial to the al
falfa, and If the present legisla
ture could be induced, to assist the
rancher in obtaining cheaper lime
for farm use, much benefit would
be derived in this section at least.
The West Stayton club decided
to accept an invitation from the
Salem Chamber of Commerce to
become affiliated with that club.
The impression seems to be "that
with all valley, clubs working to
gether much good can be. accom
plished for the individual com
munities and the entire valley. ,
Fall grain and berry prospects
are bright here. It is now appar
ent that the cold spell. did not in-'
jure the grain any in this section.
The small fruits - and berries are
not injured as badly as expected.
At -the Community club meet- i
mg Tuesday evening additional en
couragement was given , local citi
zens that a scutching plant if ill
be located here. , Both Mr. Rich
and Mr. Thompson j are enthusi
astic over the central location i of
West Stayton as regards the flax
territory, and with electric power
available ample land for the plant
and good shipping facilities by
rail, the general sentiment lwa$
decidedly in favor of taking ad
vantage of all these conditions, j
