Eight The Capital Journal, Salem, Oregon Wednesday, February 21, 1940 Dave Beck In Address Assails Isms Seattle, Feb. 21 (JP Declaring he was speaking first as an American citizen and secondly as an official of the Teamsters union, Dave Beck, vest coast union leader, said in a National Defense week address last night fascism is "nothing but com munism with its neck washed," "No Intelligent working man be lieves that communism offers any thing but destruction for the wages and working conditions," he said in emphasizing that his union permits no communist to be a member. He continued: "The communist campaign of hatred is skillfully di rected at capitalism, which, unques tionably, has many faults and weak- nesses. But while the communist seeks openly to destroy capital, he works just as hard, but secretly, to destroy labor. "Communism, fascism or any oth er kind of dictatorship means noth ing more nor less than the nation alization of both capital and labor. It means that everybody would work for the politician In control, under whatever terms and conditions the politician Imposes. And any man who maintains his right to strike loses his right to live. They simply kill him off. "So, when we defend the capital ist system, we defend the right of labor to demand Just wages, reason able hours and healthy working conditions. We also defend the right to strike, to educate our children, put money In the bank and Improve our economic condition to the limit of our capacity to earn or create." Beck appealed for the deportation of "alien agitators" not only from the ranks of labor but from busi ness, industry or "wherever else we find them." (Continued from page fi) 1 o'clock luncheon.

Factory Site Tax Will Go On Ballot Portland, Ore., Feb. 21 City officials considered the loss of a second major Industry to Vancouver, Wash., today and decided to try to make Portland more attractive to factories. Mayor Joseph K. Carson asked the city council to re-submlt to voters a 1-mill special tax to pur chase factory sites. The Sierra Iron company and the Aluminum Corporation of Amer ica selected Vancouver sites for fac tories operated with Bonneville power. Portland voters rejected the 1-mill proposal in 1936 but Carson belicws, in view of the possible influx of In dustries Into territory near Bonne ville, that they might approve it now. It woud raise about $300,000 annually. The port of Vancouver owns many acres adjacent to the city which are tax free and can be leased at nominal sums to indus tries. The leasing firm would be exempt from taxation on the site but would pay taxes on the plant, Carson said. The Portland commission of public docks. Carson said, owns a limited amount of property available for Industrial sites but city owned pro perty can not be leased under pre sent restrictions for more than five years. "The people should be reminded," Carson continued, "that power from Bonneville will be delivered at Puget Sound at the same rate It Is delivered In this area. They should further be Informed that in most respects the financial condition of this state and of this city Is such as to attract Industry insofar as most phases of the matter are con cerned but they likewise should be informed fully that their city council has no means at present of meeting the competition that is of fered by other localities." Carson declared Washington's 40-mill tax limitation Is not the most Important factor because tax ation on Industrial sites outside uie city limits of Portland is only 3! mills and Oregon has fewer addi tional taxes than Washington. two cornet solos with Wayne Rose at the piano.

Harris Named Willys Dealer Backed by a factory warranty, a decision unprecedented In the auto mobile world, which guarantees all Willys passenger and commercial vehicles for 100,000 miles or three years of service, L. B. Harris, 493 Center street, of this city, has been appointed a Willys dealer for this section, according to announcement made in Toledo, Ohio, by M. J. Gol den, general sales manager of Willys Overland Motors, Inc. "Tills new factory warranty as sures the new Willys owner that he will be protected against defects in materials and workmanship under MOT DEPENDABLE SERVICE flliryf flavor! When you bring your car or truck to us for any kind of lervice whether it ia mechanical or electrical repairs, body and fender work, painting, lubrication or other work special time-saving equipment, expert mecoanics ana em- all normal conditions for 100,000 miles or three years' service, which ever comes first," says Mr. Harris. "This new warranty follows In gen eral terms the guarantee which has been in use by the majority of man ufacturers for many years except it now reads 100,000 miles instead of 4000 and three years instead of ninety days." Excepted of course, the factory communication says, are trade ac cessories such as tires, Ignition ap paratus, speedometers, bumpers and materials for which the factory it self is limited by the guarantee of other makers. These, however, are guaranteed for 90 days or 4000 miles, on the assumption that defects In workmanship will be discovered In that period. "I have long been of the opinion," Mr. Frazer wrote to the local repre sentative, "that If the public knew how dependable the new 1940 Willys is, It would immediately reflect it self In Increased sales volume. It was the feeling of the entire organ ization that our confidence In the durability of the lowest priced, stan dard size car In the world could be demonstrated by a guarantee such as this."
