STATE BUILDING E The national monthly building survey for October, published by S. W. Strauss & Co., shows that of I he five Oregon cities mentioned in the report Eugene alone shows an Increase In the financial outlay rot now buildings over October of last year. Eugene permits to talled $189,760 against $102, G50 for October of last year, but the amount was short of the Septem ber record, which was $250,500. AH the Oregon cities show reduc tions from the September figures. As n whole Oregon reports a 13 per cent reduction from October, 1324, and a 14 per cent reduction from September, this year. Salem shows only $70,650 for October, this year, while in the same month last year the amount was $256,000, and In September, tills year, $113,050. Astoria reported $39,740 for Oc tober, this year, 5147.CS0 for Octo ber, last year, and $41,000 or Sep tember, this year. Klamath Falls reported $71,030 for October, 1!25. and $155,892 for September, 1 925. LaGrande reported $11,450 or October, 1921, $41,000 for Octo ber, 1 024, and $30,705 for Septem ber. 1925. Portland reported $2,295,800 for October. 1925, $2,429,195 for Oc tober, 1924, and $2,539,085 for Sep tember, 1925. Totals tor the state were $2,078 430 for October, last year, and $3, ljC,892 4or September, this year. AMENDMENT TO STATUTE IS AGITATED (Contiuuco vi uin Page One.) tax-.leving unit of government to re-adjust every five years the tax oasis from which the 0 per cent limitation would be calculated This new basts would cover the regular increases allowed annually by the G per cent limita-tion plus whatever atld.tiJnai annual per centage of increases natural con ditions would have required through the intervening fivi years. Should natural conditions make rcductljns possible Instead of increases the new basis would be made accordingly. Then in each of the next five years th tux levy would be made with the 6 per cent incense reckoned from the new basis. Local school authorities declare f-nnkly that under prerent condi tions it is only a question of time until It will bo necessary to hold a special election every year. It was even said last night by City Super intendent George Hug that the $9600 trimmed from the budget last week should be asked of the taxpayers in the special election along with the increase in salaries for teachers. The school district will run behind next year due to insufficient fundrr, he Faid. and another special election will have to bo called next year. Accordinr to an opinion f:om Attorney Gen sral Van Winkle, read at lust nigiit's meeting, a school district is not permitted to create any seoarate fund for more than one year's time. Even if the salary increase measure carries at the special election this year, to main tain the new schedule I will have to be Vot3d every year, unless the 6 per cent increase should overtake the schedule, which cannot occur as long as the present growth of the local schools continues. OF IS 17 PARADE GOES OUT DESPITE HEAVY RAIN Population ot die county jail has bee ti reduced to 17 prisoners, tii? lowest it ban been for many months, and Sheriff Bower pre dicts it will be uowu to 10 or 12 before November is over, unices there is a suddcr. and unexpected acquisition of new timber. Clyde WaUsou, who was hold on ssupiclou of having knowledge of an Aurora bank robbery, but in whose favor a not true bill was found by the grand jury nnd Arthur Wheeler, Indian, held on a charge of assault with a danger ous weapon, aso favored with a uot true bill, were released this week. The population wus further cut down .by the reprieve by the gov ernor of Frank Opilz, who was sent up font St. Paul in company with bootlegger Schmidt. Opita was rent in on two charges, one of jlx months and the other for u ?500 fine, the two to run concur rently. He had served out his fine and a little more when reprieved Opltz had acted as court house trusty, was well recommended lor ih( re nil eve and officers state that ihe fact he was in company with Schmidt had as much to do with tho heavy sentences ns anything. Opitz comes of a good family near St, Paul and is well liked in that community, many residents there interceding in his behalf. Sheriff Bower slates that three or four more prisoners will leave the jail one way or another as a result of the coming term of civ cult court, the time of two or thre. poie will expire during t lie month and he expects the population to steadily dwindle barring new arrivals. HEALTH CLINIC AT S! IS SUCCESSFUL Sllverton, Nov. 11 (Special): Tho second week oE the county health clinic now beiug held at Silvertou is well underway. Re sults are proving satisfactory in that the parents arc co-operating nicely with the committee in charge of the work and are ex pressing their pleasure at the wares done for their children. Many of the committee members have put in every day since the work began. As a whole . the children arc found to be In good health. But a small per cent are under weight and these are getting the milk diet during school hours. Goitre is the defect most oftcu found. On Tuesday of this week Miss Perrin, health director of the Am erican Child Health association with offices in New York, visited tbo Silverton clinic. Miss Perrin is on a tour of inspection through the country.

That ho must not expect too much, "You know, the city Is hard up for funds," and If the snld tax payer tried -to reason, that he was just aB much entitled to the sewor as some other party who did not have to wait a week for sewer ex tension. I would not lose my tem per and tell him to shut his mouth. I would not voto for expending tho people's money for the pur- poso of building sanitary Bowers that are entirely too small for the sewer entry Into them also, when the first rain comes the good people have their basemen to flood ed with sewer water. I would not maintain a sanitary inspector at high salary, because under such conditions It is a joke. I would not approve of some ad ditions which have been plotted by speculators, and accepted by vthe cuy; wnere you walk on one stret you suddenly have to switch oover 2 blocks in order to keep on the fianio street.

I am mighty sure ot a few things that I would not do. I would not promise to do some thing without trying to make my word good. If a taxpayer petition BE CAREFUL useless sumptuary laws, trying to regulate the habits and personal affairs at other people. I would not voto for anything without having full knowledge and understanding ot its merits. I would vote' for the establish ing of a city water system, with pure, clean mountain water. I would vote for a city building code. I would have the street commis sioner clean and clear up alt ditch es within tho city limits. I would abolish the city council, because the affairs of the city are run by committees, who come to tho council fur approval only, and tho majority of the council do not know what they are voting on most of the time. I would be in favor ot electing n manager at a fixed salary to run the city. OREGON TODAY RICHARD BARTIIELMESS In "SHORE LEAVE" OH, BOYS!
