Property Control
Active Club Topic
Meeting at the Argo hotel last

comptroller of the Oregon state
property control board.
Mr. Mudd explained the object
and objectives of the comparative
ly new state department, pointing
to vast sums it has already been
able to save the state by Its ac
tions in regard to state purchases.
The control board, according
to Comptroller Mudd, works on
the perpetual Inventory idea, and
holds each state department and
each individual within the depart
ments responsible for equipment
in their care.
By making a thorough study of
the best times to buy equipment
such as cars, typewriters and oth
er office supplies, something the
purchasing department never had
time to do, Mr. Mudd said, the
control board is able to save the
state a good deal of money.

i-
Republicans May Vote for
Martin but Demo can
Vote Other Way
Certain republicans' proposals
to change their registration for
the primary election so that they
may vote for Governor Charles
H. Martin if he seeks another
term, could also work the other
way, in the light of letters re
ceived here recently.
For example, a letter-writer
told a state official that he might
also change registration from re
publican to democrat but it he
should it would be for the pur
pose of voting for the governor's
democratic opponent in the pri
mary !
Labor Leader Writes
Another letter, from a promi
nent labor leader, declared that
he also would change his regis
tration but not for the purpose
of assisting Governor Martin.
Reports here today indicated
that a number of democratic lead
ers were urging their republican
friends to change -their registra
tion at the primary election so
they may vote for Governor Mar
tin and place him in the running
at the general election next No
vember, j
Governor Martin denied em
phatically that he had at any time
asked or suggested that his re
publican friends change their
registration.
DANGEROUS
It la dangerous to sell a SUBSTI

MH. J. J. HA WES
is now being introduced to the
local public at the Fred Meyer
Toiletry it Remedy Shop, 170 N.
Liberty; Street, by a Special Van
Tage Representative direct from
The Van-Tage Laboratories. For
instance, the following statement
was Just received from Mr. J. J.
Hawes. of 2117 N. W. Flanders
St., Portland, who has lived in
this section for the last 47 years
and Is widely-known. Read how
Van-Tage helped him! It may do
the same for YOU!
Rheumatic Pain Due to
Poisons in System
"I had been suffering with a
gaseous stomach, sluggish kidneys
and rheumatic pains for 19 long
years! said Hawes. "These awful
rheumatic pains seemed to strike
me first in one arm and then in
the other, and then It would go
down into my hips and legs, par
ticularly In my left side, and my
left knee and ankle would get so
full of pain and soreness that it
was agony to try to walk or use
that leg in any way. This rheu
matic affliction must have been
the result of poisons accumulated
in my system because ray kidneys
were sluggish and I had to get up
often at night to . relieve them,
and my back was so stiff and
painful that I could hardly bend
over at times. My stomach wsi
gassy and upset and - my food
would lay In my stomach after
meals; and cause me to bloat up
with gas and my waistline felt
heavy and depressed.
"A few weeks ago I got some
Van-Tage and It has given me tht
first REAL RELIEF I ever found!
My food la digesting much better
since this medicine helped to clear
out the awful gas bloating and
relieve the jaeavy feeling around .
my waist, and it also helped to
flush my sluggish kidneys so that
I can sleep more soundly at night.
The awful soreness and aching,
that I had ia my back and across
my kidneys has been wonderful-
ly relieved. Best of all, the cleans
ing action of Van-Tage helped my
sluggish organs to dispose of so
much poisonous waste that the
rheumatic pains and stiffness -in
my limbs and joints have been
greatly relieved and now: I can
get around much better, t think.
Van-Tage Is a fine medicine to
help a person like it helped me.
and I'm glad to give It my hearty
recommendation." :
A Special Van-Tage Represen
tative, direct from The Van-Tage
Laboratories, is now at the Fred :
, Meyer Toiletry A Remedy Shop,
170 N. Liberty St Salem, daily
meeting crowds bf people and in
