"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".

Further self reformation to stave off a con
gressional investigation is made by NLRB in
reversing Its policy in selecting the bargaining
agent. 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.
