Anti-Racketeering Bill Initiated Compare “Caterpillar" value with anything else in the fie ld ............... dollar for dollar. You'll find more honest value in a “Caterpillar” Tractor than any machine o f its kind on the market. There is no skimping on material or workmanship and no known im provement in design is omitted. "Caterpillar” Tractors offer the moat in quality, the lowest operat ing c o o t ............... yet their selling price is about the same as other machines that offer much less in valae. * Don't compromise on quality . . . . buy a “Caterpillar.” O’MEARA Supply & im p. Co John Deere Voters will have a * chance in Noveiriber to vote on a measure having for its purpose the regula tion of some phases of the labor situation. The measure has been initiated by the Associated Farm ers, Inc., the Eastern Oregon Wheat League and other farm organizations and will, if enacted by the people, prevent picketing unless there is a labor dispute be- tween the employer and his own workmen. A dispute between two labor organizations could not be aided by picketing. Other sections ox the bill would make it illegal to interfere with the marketing of harvesting of farm products and would prevent the building up of union funds for which there is no legitimate needs. It would also be illegal to prevent or interfere with persons seeking work.

The fact that many drivers* lic the bake pedal well in advance of enses are lost, destroyed or mu the place they wish to stop. tilated is proven by the issuance of nearly four thousand duplicate operators' license cards in Oregon in the six* months from January 1 to June 30, Secretary of State Earl Sr.ell said recently. -* He advised drivers to keep their license cards in wallets or special holders, rath er than carrying them loose in their pockets. B, » am . tu tu . “You Always Have Time To Drive Safely” will be the slogan used on Oregon license plate mail ing envelopes for the year 1900, Secretary of State Earl Snell an nounced this week. Frequent sudden stops not only damage the brakes of a car *by overheating, but also create ex- cessive wear on the lining, Secre- | tary of State Earl Snell said this week. He advised drivers to stop WASCO teir vehicles by pressing lightly on T. Lester Johnson The Ontario, Oregoa, Argus re cently suggested a good slogan for —I the touring motorist: “See Amer ica First—but don’t try to do it all this week end.” Secretary of State Earl Snell seconds the sug gestion that tourists plan schedules which will not call for long drives at unreasonable speeds. Dangers Found In Swimming Pools By MDs Oregon, like most of the other Western states, has gone in heavi ly for swimming pools largely be cause most o f Its streams are pol luted and unfit for bathing pur poses. Many persons still bathe in , the rivers and creeks and th e y are often the people who add to the number o f typhoid .cases. When the sun Is hot and the water looks cool and refreshing, little thought i . given to posable pollution and on a day’s outing toe temptation is lf . . f . «anally too great to be resl.ted. “ t’ * " v T 8 Swimming is a healthful exercise .
