BUSINESS VS. OPPORTUNITY The present is one time when the business men and citizens generally of this section can make their in fluence felt It takes concerted ef fort to accomplish far-reaching ef fect, and that effort is in demand at this time. The voters determined that a tuberculosis hospital should be lo cated in Eastern Oregon; they reali ized the emphatic necessity of such an institution and chose this part of the state for its home. Many other cities have put in applications for the hospital. The citizens of those places are as a unit in putting forth the favorable attributes of their home towns and are doing j house storage to avoid dumping all they can to influence the state I and cotton crops on the mar authorities to decide upon their j et immediately after harvest, town as the place for the hospital.

NATIONAL MARKET PROBLEMS There is encouragement for both the farmer and manufacturer in the efforts made by our Government to help the wheat grower and cotton planter to bring about better market ing conditions.

TAXVlLAR REMOVED "The welfare of the world depends upon constructive thought originat ing in the individual mind, and the dollar is its messenger to a creative end," says Paul Shoup, Executive Vice President, Southern Pacific company. "The separation of the dollar what it represents from the indi vidual to the mass through taxation, depriving this dollar of the support of this constructive individual thot, seeking achievement or reward or both, is destructive to the welfare of !the world destructive to. that nc ition 'which would make two ears of corn or two blades of grass to grow upon a spot of ground where only ona grew before.' "The dollar, diverted by taxation, no longer the possession of indivi- 'dual creative thought, loses its crea-j iTive character. "The dollar is useful ouly as the mind of man makes it so. The destruction of useful initiative must be necessarily destructive to its use ful work. "The taxes paid in the United States represent an annual contribu tion of three per cent upon the value of all the property in this country. We find that our tax contibutions, the number of dollars diverted from their normal course for taxation pur poses, have been for many years past increasing out of proportion to the growth of the saved wealth of the nation, and out of proportion to the national income."

Nearly the whole voting contigent of Road district No. 3 went to Ante lope Monday to vote on the levy of a 10-mill tax. Lester Kelly says the voting part of it was not so hard, but that driving home though a frost filled air knocked all the satisfaction out of the fact that the levy failed to carry. The butcher who was to have started a meat market on the East Side got cold feet and beat it when he turned Jack Staat's Ford over on a smooth road.
