Mra, Earl Olds continues to improvs GOVERNMENT PLANNING ’ " Politics aside, what is so terrible about the Gamer bill? *1ti purpose is to provide government building projects to employ la* bor during this time of economic stress. Nothing wrong about that The only criticism leveled against it is that some of the projects proposed are not needed at present and that many of the government works will not use many men. It is probably true that in the government files a»e the plans for some projects that are not necessary or a part of any well thought out plan. If these are included in the Garner bill it should be amended to cast out the uneconomic parts and not be beaten because of them. Surely our government is and has been sufficiently far seeing to have plans prepared for government works that should be done Three years ago when times were what we call good the fed eral government cooperated with th« state to resurface and oil a part of Federal Highway No. 97. Why, if it is possible to do this aort of work in good times when no one is suffering, can not more of it be done when men are clamoring for jobs to keep body and soul together? Such work can be done for much less cost to the government than it cost in 1929. / We hear a lot of talk these days about balancing the budget in connection with government work. Is it possible that the bud get was in perfect balance during the war years when bonds were being sold every day to raise funds for loans to improvident Eur ope and to outfit our own boys for foreign service? Is it to be said of us that we can provide 25 billions of dollars for purposes of destruction and yet we haggle over 2 billions of dollars for pur poses of construction that will give work to needy men Jt may be said that we were fighting the war to save our bon or—though there are many who call it< something else—but it is certainly as important to retain the country’s honor at home as it Mr. and Mrs J.S.

V«rn McGowan and [wife will leave for Independence as soon as Mrs. Mc Gowan has secovered from an attack is abroad. Neither do we mean that the government should engage in the building of projects that will not fill a need. In a country as new and as undeveloped as ours there are many things that < hv needed which can only be built by government aid. Let them be built in hard times instead of in times when government has to compete with private industry for labor and materials. That is the sort of planning people should expect of their government w I vm MORO, ' OREGON, JUNE 1< 1981. of tonsilitis. 0. W.

It "welds” together different kinds of the several varieties of tobacco... many types of Bright tobacco, a great many types of Burley tobacco and numerous grades of Turkish tobacco. C T his "W elding ” — or CROSS BLENDING takes all these pleasing flavors and aromas and combines them into one—the Chest erfield taste.

THE DALLES GRASS VALLEY, OREGON I here’s sonerhing about the sight of a wheat field waving in the wind that delights the soul of an artist as well as pleases the more self seeking spirit of the business man who is interested in |he renumeration to be derived therefrom.; Many an aged farm er whose appearance gives no hint of artistic learning can wax al most oratorical when describing a field of wheat, headed and making its first change from the deep green of wheat adolesence to the paler shade that signifies approaching ripeness. One thing that adds to the beauty of wheat fields in these days of hurry and speed is the suddenness with which you break upon them You make a turn in the road or breast the top of a hill and there it lies stretched out before you, acres and acres and acres of it teaching perhaps to the next hill and beyond. And it waves in the graceful fashion of deep water this year, not with the tiny riffles of small streams, for it h deep. Before harvest it will be as tall as the fences. They are beautiful now, these wheat fields, and those of ar tistic temperment can well aford to drive many miles to see them» but more important from a practical point of view, the farmer knows that, barring very unfortunate weather, there is moisture enough in the soi beneath to keep the wheat green until nature has done her part of making the kernels large and plentiful. And to residents ol a county whefe wheat is the principal crop, that is Golden Twenties. GOOD SHOE REPAIRING 204 Second St. I ------ o------ THOSE WAVING WHEATFIELDS.
