The Willamette valley dishes out n any days as nice in the way of weather during the year as Wednesday was, but none better. The Germans, it is said, plan prodigious efforts to raise huge crops of sugar during the next year or two. At the present market quo tation, if that is the case, it will not take them long to pay off their war debt out of their sugar profits. In the heit of our own politics! battles we are losing sight of some lively scrimmages which are taking place in Mexico. Our observation has taught us that where any one in power delib erately seta to work to shape events to make political issues out of them, the result invariably proves a boomerang. Independence recently carried bond election to build a high school gymnasium and now Monmouth, its up to you.

Our gravity water system will be with us before we know it. The next job will be the raising of the wherewithal to pay for it. Suppose a man approached you and asked for a subscription towards building a gymnasium for the high school, a building that at the same time would serve many of the purposes of a community cen ter. What would you give? Fig ure out from your assessed valu tion whatan eleven mill tax would cost you. It is an even chance the amount is less than you would nat urally donate. m 'No interesl: to serve but the ;; people's interesl; D. E.

You are respectfully urged to vote for the new millage support bill on May 2, the Higher Educa tional relief measure.

H. .Hirschberg of Independence called us up last Friday to deny a few things in the news item in the Stalem Capitol Journal which we copied last week. Aside from the fact that he had not been to Port land to interview the highway com mission, that he had not interested himself in any way recently In re gard to the highway, and that be knew nothing about any alleged $4,000 fund, the item may have been accurate. Here is another item relative to Mr. Hirschberg of which we copy from the Corvallis Gazettel'Jimes: .Bob, Johnson of Cor vjjllis in an interview in the G. T, temarks: "Joe Hirschberg' of 1 Independence has no children, is worth about a million dollars and is working strenuously for the mil- ,lage measure.
