Should the budget fail of pass- T T age we will likely find the city at the end of next year with a heavy warrant lntleoteaness drawing mix in-i i-cih ui est. This is likely because the fundamental expenses such as street lighting, our heaviest expense, policing, fire fighting, street cleaning, etc., must be met or the city will become unin habitable. Therefore we may expect outstanding warrants next year if the budget is voted down and the taxpayers in addition to usual expenses will naturally have interest charges to meet. Where would there be any economy in forcing a situation like that upon the people? Where will the city of Pendleton be if the voters reject the measure for a septic tank? Such a rejection will be a direct in vitation to property owners below the city to bring damage suits. It would be direct defiance of the state board of health and the laws of Oregon. It will no doubt mean a suit for an injunction to keep the city from emptying sewage into the Umatilla river and such an injunction it granted would put our sewer system out of commission, with consequences unpleasant to contem plate. Why should Pendleton run needless risk of such a dis grace which would involve litigation and loss of prestige, not to mention the possible danger to the health ol the community. It is time for the people to think of these things. Conditions call for sober reflection to the end that while all proper meas ures of economy may be taken we look out that we do not go to such extremes that the ultimate outcome will he increased ex pense to the city and not reduced expenses. The auditorium proposal has been dropped. The natatorium measure may be defeated if the people wish. Hut we will get nowhere on the road to economy by defeating the budget and forcing the city to i.wue script. We will get nowhere by defeating the septic tank. We will get nowhere by retusing to provide tourists with camp grounds, because such action will simply keep thousands of peo ple away from the city and force them to spend their money elsewhere. For every dollar we save we will lose $10 or more, and we will all be losers. We need that outside money. Some people who are running amuck on the tax subject are not true economists. There is no money in starving a horse to death in order to save feed. You can make no headw ay by kill ing your engine on a hill because the grade may be steep. It will not be true economy for the city of Pendleton to neglect its es sential needs. WILL THE PRESIDENT TAKE HEED? IN the elections Tuesday the trend of voting was unmistakably favorable to the democrats. A democratic mayor of New York City was reelected by a majority of 1 1 7-000. Kentucky returned to the democratic fold and in numerous states strong republican strongholds were captured by the minority party. Marion, Ohio, the president's home town, is listed among these places. Such results indicate restlessness on the p;rt of the people. They are not satisfied with conditions and the tendency under such a situation is for the people to vote against the party in tower. It will be interesting to note what effect, if any. this vot ing will have on the president ami "his advisors" in connection with the disarmament conference. The wise course will he for the administration to forget past political campaigns and aid in formation of a world association to preserve peace ami thereby rllow armament reductions. The thing can be done if the presi dent and the senate will but see the light. It cannot be done if the United States insists upon a policy of isolation. If we are t keep down world fires we must have a fire department and the United States must be in the team. If we are to have a septic tank let us authorize sufficient funds to insure a thorough job; we need a tank that will work and will prevent damage suits, not bring such suits upon the city.

The ruial delivery system serves over six and one-half million families. The lenlh of the routes Is aliout 1,l"n. nun miles and the carriers travel annually back and forth over these routes a distance of oli.l, iinn.tiutl miles. Some other amazing figures were used by Alt'. Hays to empliasi.e I he in ' meusity of the postal service. For in stance, the rallwnv mail service uses tl.yion.ooo mail tarts In which to ry the mail, and it takes ij.unn.luin yards of canva.". to make tl .se sacks.
