Page Six INDEPENDENCE ENTERPRISE AUGUST on OREGON'S RECREATION AREAS IN GOVERNMENT FOLDER Washington, D. C A handsomely illustrated folder which includes a map of the pinncipal highways for the entire state of Oregon, has just been issued by the forest service. This is the first time this branch of the United States Department of Agriculture has issued a map" of an entire state. The new publication should prove of immense value to all persons, particularly motorists, seeking recreation in this region with such a variety of natural at tractions, j The booklet is entitled, "Road and Recreation Map of Oregon," and contains descriptions of recreation spots in the natural forests of that state. These pictui-esque areas, many of them heavily forested, are "in every sense free recreation grounds," says the pamphlet, "and portant part, having built many miles of road. When all plans have been carried out, there will be over a thousand miles of &ood highway in these national forests Manv well-laid-out camp sites await the out-door enthusiast. Sev eral of these are close-by streams where fish are abundant and where hunting is good. Numerous camp trrounds are equipped with stone fireplaces. The extensive tele phone systems of the forest service are available to the public free in case of emergency. Notable among the recreation places mentioned are the Siuslaw re sorts in the national forest bearing that name, the Eagle Creek camp grouns, Columbia Gorge Park, Lehman and Hideway Springs, the Anthony Lake Region, Crater Na tional Park, Dead Indian Soda Springs, Oregon Caves, Wenaha Springs and McKenzie Bridge. The latter is a mecca for tourists and is the outfitting point for many camp no trammels are put on your enjoy ment. All the forest sen-ice asks is j ers am1 hunters in the north end of that you be careful with fire and the Cascade national forest. Per that you look to the proper sanita-1 sor,s desirintr copies of this pam phlet may obtain them by address ing a request to the District For ester, Portland, Oregon. , tion of your camp." Not only is this wonderland char acterized by scenes infinitely varied, but as the map shows, they are easily accessible.

HOP-PICKING TIME BRINGS REMINISCENCES Hop picking time approaches. It ia something of a vacation and a job for many Oregonians who count the seasons by their hop-picking adven tures, says the.

But it has done a great deal more than that. It has brought people closer together, given them new interests, swept away old prejudices. What affects one man now generally affects a good many of his neighbors in the same way. And they have a better chance to get together and talk things over. It's had its effect on the tire business. When automobiles were new people were willing to buy any kind of a tire. Now they're beginning to insist on knowing what they are getting. And the more they insist, the better it will be for us. IV We want our customers to know what they are getting. That's why we represent U. S. Tires so there will be no doubt about it. Whatever the size of your car, you know that the U. S. Tire you put on it is the best kind of tire its makers know how to make. U. S. Tires are guaranteed for life, without any limi tation of mileage. That ought to mean some thing to the man who has thought about tires. n ite d States Tires INDEPENDENCE GARAGE The proposed Section 0, to lo added I to artlclo IX of the constitution or the state of Oregon if the measure is successful in November, at Him election, 1 iniquitous and HoU Hhevistic proposition a evor slipped onto a ballot and got be for the people. That it will be deefatiHi U (vitain; but, becuuse it is up for decision, it deserves in-Niues iviUiu iMnligalU'ii which una 11 warn its proponents of the futility ..f achieving liol.-diovisin by ballot, or nnv other means. It provides that "The legal late of interest in Oregon tmll Do lour per cent per iinnuni, on dl moneys after the same shall become due, Dut on contract the rate of five per cent per annum und no more, may bo charged by express agreement of tha parties, which rate shall be inclu sive of all brokerage and commis sions. No laws of thin state relating to interest or usury are it'pealed ot abrogated by this section except In. so-far as the legal late of interest is modified hereby." The most telling opposition to this measure comes from the users of borrowed capital themselves the people who are paying interest. Capital, at legitimate rates, In diffident fiiough. To protect itself, it pusses by many a proposition that, with its aid, might become a flourishing industry because capi tal is uncertain of its outcome. If capital is worth anything at all, it is worthy a detent hire. When it cannot get that, by reason of such n law as this proposal would be, capital need not seek far for bet ter fields. It seems idle, indeed, to point out nmething of the finnneinl chiioi tliat w-iuld result from the operation of this measure, for that matter, it in hard to imagine the full conse quences. Capital would be with drawn from a thousand enterprise, from one-man farms to hundred men factories, in every stizeaMe community. Capital, with the bui donn it must now bear, could not lend itself out nt this fixed rate of rent. Even if it desired, it would lose money on the operation. Tb banks and all other loaning agencies would be compelled to do husines's under a losing margin. That is, if they did any business in the state, it would he at a loss. It must be perfectly evident that capital, already diffident and care ful, cannot be coerced. It must be p!;i:n to t!l that capital would turr to other fields; for in Jheo busy reconstruction days money is needed everywhere, nnd is assuredly worth a safe marg'n of profit for its use. There are some profiteers in the land today, whose operations have not been found out. Hut money-to-loan agencies are not among them. --Albany Democrat. Elftl 1. I THr .
