"A NEWSPAPER IS A CITIZEN OF mi COMMUNITY" FOR 5 CENTS: 60 MINUTES? Newest gadget of civilization to be pon dered along the curbs of Willamette street is the parking meter. These little things are familiar enough with any motorist who's been to Portland the past year. The nickel-eating boxes are hoisted about three feet above the sidewalk so's it's handy to shovel nickels from pockets to slots on little metal poles. The "Brains" of the meter are glass-enclosed. Inside, visible from curb-side or window-side, is the "dash board" of the contraption. There, just like on the clock on anybody's mantle piece, the minutes are marked off for the period of one hour. Different from a clock is the meter in that there's only one hand. After the coin clangs into the interior- it's not known whether the nickel goes down the pipe and underneath the sidewalk into some dark vault or stays in the pipe itself, but the city gets it out this little hand be gins the race to the other side of the dash board. Once there, a red slide bobs into place and becomes easily visible to passers by, especially the cops. That's the alarm. If the Whippet is left by a meter which has turned red with time, it's eligible for a ticket. In short, parking meters are just like hour parking laws like Eugene now has, except they cost five cents. A big advantage of parking meters is that often times, if a motorist is "sharp", free space can be found. This fortunate cir- cumstance arises when some individual plunks his buffalo into the meter so as to be ' able to park just long enough to buy morning paper or a cup of hot chocolate, Maybe it only takes seven minutes, That leaves the little hand still plugging along towards the 60-minutc deadline. Economica people then, will try to spot these pired" meters. One of the most tragic facts about meters Is that drivers usually have a tough time keeping five cent pieces In their pockets Dimes won't work. Neither will pennies. And while he's In the beer parlor or sandwich 1 shop getting change that makes the pro prietors very unhappy the car's eligible for a tag. The excuse, "Oh, policeman, was only away for a second to get change" doesn t work. Total cost for parking in that particular region for the ensuing minutes will be $1.05 unless the driver's a blonde and convincing. At the present time, while officials and citizens alike are sounding the points for and against parking meters, the question in everybody a mind should not be "Do you want parking meters?" but "Do you think the meters would help to solve the down town parking problem?" As the man across the alley said last night: "It's just like askin' a man if he likes to wear dresses! It's not fair, because he's never worn one!" filled from 1934 to 1037. when her mining inter ests demanded her personal attention and sne resigned. Unlike most new dealers, Miss Roche was not bitten by the social bug; her name was not a commonplace in the society columns; the nlizht clubs knew her not. Mr. Roosevelt thought Miss Roche would tit Into the Dicture as administrator of Federal Se curity Agency. The idea did not please certain new deal women who did not relish the thought of another woman filling position which is more important than being a member of the cabinet Miss Roche's name would be a house hold word wherever there was a CCC camp; wherever anyone is entitled to benefits of the social security act; wherever public health is con cerned. Hints are made that Frances Perkins, labor secretary, and Mrs. Morganthau, wife of the secretary of the treasury, and one or two other women, worked on Mrs. Roosevelt to prevent Miss Roche's appointment. Argument; Adminis trator of FSA is a man's job. Mrs. Morganthau is particularly chummy with Lady Eleanor, go ing around with her much of the time. The friends of Mis. Roosevelt were quite elated when the president named McNutt, even though the politicians are not. Possibly, as an argument, Mrs. Roosevolt remind ed her husband that placing a woman in a man's Job caused him enough trouble already mean ing Secretary of Labor Perkins. With the Schwellenbach and Pittman proposals to place an embargo on supplies to Japan (other than agricultural commodities), a pro-China group has taken a poll of senate and house. According to this survey Senator Bone is non-committal and Schwellenbach favorable. Oreogn's Holman is listed as favorable, but no report is made on Mc Nary. Idaho's Borah and Clark are checked as unfavorable to the proposed embargo. California's Johnson and Downey arc "probably favorable".

Heretofore the board counted the number of workmen holding cards In a union and declared the majority was bargaining agent. This policy resulted In tempestuous organization methods, in timidation and coercion anyway to force a work er to take a card. After th. board made II. rf. cislon the losing union charged bad faith and bias on me pari of NLHB. Hereafter the board will call for secret elec tions, which gives every employe an opportunity to vote his honest conviction without ' re prisal afterward. This method of determining what union has a maioritv and hm,irf k. it,. bargaining agent is one of th. changes employers and critics of th. board have been demanding. Additional ateps to meet widespread criticism and to clear itself of the accusation of bias are pending by NLRB. AN EDITORIAL ON HEALTH By DR.
