There are counties in the state where salaries, after a SO "per cent r edaction, star are in excess of those paid in Marion county. Al though the NRA. as yet. does not affect the county government, it i vrill soon and with these clerks - and deputies working the long hours necessary, you should in crease their salaries far abore the 10 per cent reduction. "Fifth the salaries of clerks ... and deputies in Marion county ' are far below the salaries paid in other industries for the same type of work. The executive of a store or' bank, does not ask his em ployes, : who handle a large v amount of money, as these do, to work for any such salary.

Reports indicate there are SOS residents of Marion coun ty, eligible for the old age pen sions. Jackson county, with a far less number of eligible residents, is appropriating 9180,000, it was reported by Judge Day. "It is very probable that If we are forced to pay the old age pen sions in Marion county, the ac count will exceed $200,000," Chairman Ray J. Glatt of Wood bur, said. "I am cot la favor of placing any fund in the budget, for If we do it is an admission that Marion county is financially able to pay the bill." The committee had been noti fied that it was possible to place a nominal sum in the budget for the account and if the present legis lature does not defer the bill, the funds could be used In some other account: Newell Williams, chief deputy sheriff, asked the committee to re turn, the budget figure of. J3000 for - care of. prisoners to $4000, because ef Increasing crime, "Crime has increased to such an extent in the last six months, that we will be unable to feed all our prisoners next year on this al lowance Deputy Williams said. "These men have to be fed and if they are' given good food, they are more anuuendable. We are at tempting to keep the costs down by moving the prisoners through the courts as rapidly as possible." The budget committee this year includes, in addition to Chairman Glatt. Secretary M. G. Gunderson of Silverton, and E. L. Welder of Salem, and three members of the county court. Judge J. C.

Coos county. . The Coos bill would also require the banks to show in their annual statements the total amount of deposits secured and held la the county whera the bank is operat ing together with the loans out standing in that area. The reports would be made at the same time as similar reports are bow re quired for banks operating under state charters. The bill proTides a penalty of $25 a day on each branch for each day of delay in publishing in a legal newspaper the required statement and furnishing the same to the state bank superin tendent. Senator Goss said his bill was proposed under the authority re tained by the state and acceded to by the federal goTejyment to al low branch banking only on terms acceptable to each common wealth.

Things have come to such a pass in the wardrobes of American Womanhood that a girl never knows (what with runs, and such) whether she's going to have a decent pair of stockings to put on. And it isn't only a question of things be ing worn out, or not enough of them. If you want to achieve the new sheath silhou ette, you've got to wear the kind of foun dation garment that goes with it. And whether or not your stockings are in good condition, .they're probably not the right color for this season's styles. Something really ought to be done about it. And now ia the time to do it. For hosiery and underwear prices will prob ably never again be so low as the" are today. ' , . . You can easily see why. The past four years have been very hard ones in the hosiery and underwear industries. Prices have gone down and down until there wasn't a decent living in it for anyone con cerned. Wages sank out of sight. Men were laid off. It got to the point where there was no real value left - either for the hosiery and underwear, or for the work of the people who made them.

This Government be lieves that the laborer is worthy of his hire . . and that his hire should yield him enough to live on. It has set its hand to the task of reestablishing lost values ... of making everything and everybody worth something once again. That process is well under way. Already since February, payrolls in the hosiery and underwear industries have increased 37'. Materials have kept pace. Silk is up 55'. Hosiery and underwear have started to re gain their true values. Obviously, retail prices will have to go up. But now ... for a little while, you can still get hosiery and underwear of late de sign which are priced amazingly low. That is, if you act quickly.
