Children's Room
Draws at Library
With mermaids, fishnets, and
various denizens of the deep, the
Children's Room at the Salem
public library has created the
proper atmosphere for its sum
mer reading program, the Book-
erman club. This activity re
places for the summer the story
mes held during the winter
months.
The club is open to all chil
dren from the first grade to
high school. As soon as a child
reads and reports on his first
book, he is a member; he puts
a fish bearing the name of the
book on his own personal "sea"
as he reads five more books
of different kinds, he receives
the appropriate fish for each
one.
With the sixth book he has
completed the project; his name
is put on a larger fish displayed
in the red fish net on the wall;
at the end of the summer he will
have a certificate of achievement
and be a guest at a party held
for the successful members.
Already a number of readers
have completed their undertak
ing, and more are joining the
club and coming near to their
final reports every day.
S.U.V. Camp Fire
Wednesday Event
An interesting feature of the
annual Sons of Union Veterans
auxiliary state convention, held
in Salem Wednesday and Thurs
day, was the annual Camp Fire,
which was held with the Sons
of Union Veterans last night fol
lowing a dinner at the Evangeli
cal church.

bers of the Eugene auxiliary;
Dr. L. E. Barrick and his quar

Light Vote Indicated in
Special Election Friday
By Harry Crain
Notwithstanding the importance of the two meaures for con
sideration of which the election was called, experienced political
observers will be surprised if more than 30 percent of Oregon's
nail million qualified electors go
to the polls tomorrow. Bas
ing their estimates on the ex
perience of special elections in
the past, they are pretty well
agreed that not more than 25
to 30 percent of the voters will
show up at. the polling places.
Interest in local issues being
submitted simultaneously to city
voters here and there may stim
ulate the voting pace in some
localities. In Portland the
question of acquiring property
for a civic center as a post
war project has engendered
some heat that may be reflected
in the turnout there. Likewise
the Bush Pasture park site ques
tion and an electric power fran
chise fight may be the incentive
to call out a larger number
of voters here.
Voting will be open to all reg
istered voters at regular pre
cinct polling places throughout
Endocreme helps
the face become
more youthful looking
Many thousands of ENDOCREMB ultra In the last 8 years'
have found to their own enthuaiaatic satisfaction
that ENDOCREMB helps to regain a more youthful texture
and beauty of the skin of face and throat. ENDOCREME
with most women brings results hitherto thought impossible.
It actually helps to improve the skin itself, not just ita
superficial appearance. This is because ENDOCREME with its
ACnVOL. . . a scientific replacement for woman's natural
skin-vitalizing substance ... is absorbed by the skin to help
restore normal growth of cells and tissues. This assists
the skin to become smoother, fresher, softer, actually more
alluringly youthful again. How better can any woman invest
her cosmetic dollars? You, too, should try ENDOCREME.
Many report great improvement in just jo days.

Ear Mr. Read:
I am pleased to report that arrangements for a second
point of delivery to the Salem Electric are progressing
satisfactorily. A new 20-year contract providing for -this
second point of delivery and an increase in your contract
demand will be ready for your approval within a few days.
' In view of these developments it seems appropriate
to extend our congratulations on the progressive operation
of the Salem Electric. Expansion of your system undoubt
edly will result in Increased savings in power costs to your
customers and indirectly to all consumers in the Salem
area.
It is interesting to note that the Portland General
Electric Company has reduced its rates in the city of Salem
to about 13 per cent below PGE's Portland rates. I assume
.that this was done to meet the competition of the low
rates charged by Salem Electric. As a result Salem resi
dents have realized a saving of more than $300,000 in the
last four years, as compared with Portland rates, and an
nual savings now are averaging approximately $84,000.
Salem Electric deserves a great deal of credit for the
important part it has played in lowering Salem power rates.
Sincerely yours,

The cigarette tax measure for
the support of public schools
has lacked any active sponsor

warm backing from teachers,
parent-teacher groups and
school boards. Its defeat will
surprise no one.
Locally, the outcome of the
balloting on the Bush Pasture
purchase question and the Sa
lem Electric franchise measure
hinges almost entirely on the
size of the vote oast. The heav

chances of the park proposal
and of defeat of the franchise.

STATE BPJBILODMG FdDE)
The special election June 22 gives the people of
Oregon an Opportunity to vote on a measure that,
means much to the future of the State and its citizens,
particularly its returning war veterans. Approval of the
measure will establish a post-war building fund of
$10,000,000 of which $4,000,000 will be for higher
education and $6,000,000 for other state buildings.
this fund will insure adequate facilities for veterans,
make possible long overdue improvements to the
general state institutions, and provide a sizable
employment project when war workers are released.
Present tuberculosis hospitals are inadequate. In
norsnal times there is a long waiting list for admit
tance. More adequate facilities will be provided tor
the training of doctors, whose services are sorely
needed. These can be done without increasing taxes,
even though the measure authorizes a so-called
firoperty levy to produce $5,000,000 in 1946 and a
ike amount in 1947. That, is because the income tax
in Oregon was created for property tax relief and
funds from it can be used for no other purpose)
without a vote of the peoplo. The bill provides a levy
against real property merely to permit utilizing the
income tax surplus.
Thus the measure wiH not mean the collection of
any additional real estate taxes. It will not mean any
additional income taxes either, because the legis
lature provided for the svrptos to be held in a reserve
fund if tite building measure fails to pass.
BACKED BY LEADERS THROUGHOUT THE STATE
Will not cost yon ono cent in property tax and will not increase income tax rate
Governor and Legislators Approve
"Careful consideration by the recent legislature results in
almost unanimous passage of this measure. The Governor
approved and signed it. It U a constructive program for
a growing state."
Senator Dean Walker and Representatives
Giles French and Burt A. Snyder.
Will Not Raise Real Property
Or State Income Tax Later
Again aod again property owners must be reminded
that the $10,000,000 for state institution buildings so
critically needed, will be paid for by State Income Tax
revenue. It will not in any way raise the rates either for tbe
real property tax or for the State Income Tax."
F. H. Young, Manager,
Oregon Business & Tax Research, Inc.
EDUCATIONAL BUILDINGS TO BE
FINANCED FROM STATE FUND
Needed Improvements Can He Had
Without Increasing Tax Kates
The need is urgent for added educationnl facilities and
for improvement and replacement of other state institutions'
These can be completed without increasing present in
come tax rates, and without placing additional burdens
on real property."
Jinn. Howard C. fit lton, President,
Oregon Statu Senate
Deserves Support of All Citizens
The program submitted by the legislature which will
not increase taxes but is merely a method of putting to
use funds now frozen in the treasury, deserves the support
of all citizens."
The Oregonimu
Will Not Increase Property Tax
We are clearly of the opinion that the proposed tax lev?
of $10,000,000 for a state building fund . . . will not be
levied on property in any part, but will be fully paid from
state income tax revenues. . t
"We can see no reason that the proposed tax shook! bava
any effect whatever on income tax rates or exemption.
Charles V, Galloway, Earl H. Day,
Earl L, Fisher, State Tax Commission
Cannot Fall On Property
"It Is a tax that was not intended to fall on property and
cannot fall on property, for it is clearly provided in the bill
that it is a levy to be offset, as are other state taxes, by mods
derived from taxes on or Measured by net Incomes'.
