RoteryClub Hears Talk on Fluoridation The growth of fluoridation of public water supplies as a tooth decay preventive was depicted to Salem Rotary Club Wednesday by Dr. D. M. Witter of the State Board of Health. He said interest began in 1908 with research on "Colorado brown stain" which is reportedly the only ill effect when the fluoride concentration is less than five parts to one million. The opti mum use is one part to one mil lion, which is being placed in water systems. The fluoridation began seven years ago in Grand Rapids, Mich., and today more than three mil lion persons drink water with fluorides, 356 cities with seven million persons have added fluor ides and 324 cities with 11 million have approved the plan, said Witter. Comparisons of the teeth of children in areas with and with out fluorides were presented both In statistics and in slides. Witter said Oregon stands the fifth high est in the nation in; number of dental caries. He said placing in the public water system is 4he only way to get the benefits of fluoride to all persons in a community.

Nurseryman license Given To Jack Hurd There was no actual intent to defraud or deceive purchasers "or a negligence so gross as to be equivalent to an actual intent to defraud, the State Agricultural Department held here Wednesday following a hearing on the appli cation of Jack Hurd, Oswego, for renewal of his state nurseryman's license. ' The license was renewed but Frank McKennon, writer of the order, made it plain that If the nurserymen law would permit a probationary period pending full and faithful compliance with the spirit of the law, such action would have been taken in the Hurd case. The law provides, McKennon said, the department must , either grant or withhold nursery licenses of applicants whose activities have been brought into question. McKennon is chief of the plant industry division of the State Ag ricultural Department Hurd operates two retail con cerns known as Riverside Gardens and Lake Hopman in the Portland area.:' , Witnesses who appeared at the hearing for the state charged that Hurd failed to act promptly in filling orders, had been slow to answer complaints, and that some adjustments had. been unsatisfac tory. Hurd contended his principal trouble with customers developed in connection with a large order of imported roses which had been advertised on a national scale and which turned out to be dis eased stock. Complaints reached the agri cultural department over a period of two years, McKennon said.

Robert Maclean, commission chairman, said he was advised by the Multnomah county assessor on August 26 that the latter had pick ed up an additional $11,000,000 in unreported merchandise. The 10 per cent reduction or der,' Maclean said, Minvolvi only $12,000,000 so it is evident that tha assessor will pick up enough ad ditional value to more' than off set the reduction given by the tax commission."

The commission granted the company a $783,715 reduction from last year s assessed value, but Multnomah County Assessor Wiley Smith refused to put the reduction into effect This matter now is be fore the State Supreme Court This year's assessed valuation of $7,333,085 was fixed by Smith.

Allen Hart Portland attorney for the company, told the tax com mission it should order the reduced valuation on the same bases as it did last year.

Colorful - Educational Agricallaral Exhibits at your STATE FAIR Salem 8 Days & Nights Q T 171 Starting wli A It Means So Much-To So Many! In all the history of commerce, it is doubt ful whether another manufactured product has ever had such a hold on the affections of its owners as the Cadillac car. There is a well-to-do gentleman in a southern state, for instance, who will permit no one to minister to his Cadillac except himself other than for its mechanical needs. He washes it, polishes it, cleans it and drives it . . . himself. There is a family in New York which has owned a long series of Cadillacs to which have been given the names of people because they regard their cars as all but members of the household. There is a professional man in the mid west who insists that his whole life changed for the better when he got his Cadillac These are but typical of innumerable instances of the deep - regard in which Cadillac owners hold their cars-. The loyalty and respect a Cadillac engenders are extraordinary indeed. What can there be about a motor car to make it mean so much to so manjX The answer is not far to seek. Because of its world-wide standing as one of the better things in life, it reflects credit upon its owner and indicates that he is a person of substance and good taste.' Because it performs so well and so dependably, it is conducive to his desire to travel and to see the world an inspiring companion for his daily movements among his fellows. ' Because it is beautiful and luxurious, it is a joy to own and a pleasure to contemplate. Standing in his driveway, rolling down the streets of his favorite city, or parked at the entrance to a distinguished club or hotel it is a credit to his judgment and a testimonial to his work. a No wonder he cherishes it, and thinks of it as all but a part of his own personality. Don't you think that a car which can mean so much to so many could mean a gxeat deal to you? Better come in today and talk it over.
