Oregon voters
will have
18
m easures on which to vote this
Novem ber in addition to choos­
ing
officials
fo r th e
nation,
state, d istrict,, county and city.
None of them are exactly easy
although voters can decide some
of them by their prejudices—
w ithout long study.
This w ill
be true of the measures to ban
pari-mutuel
racing,
d a y lig h t
Saving and liquor by the drink
and perhaps prejudice w ill have
much to do w ith the big truck
bills of w hich there are two.
Despite prejudices, some reason
,ng w ill be found valuable on
all of them.
There are two
school bills,
one to m ake the office of state
school superintendent appointive
by the board of education in­
stead of elective by the voters,
and one to reorganize school dis­
tricts o f the state.
T h ere is a
reapportionm^nt
bill sim ilar in many w ays to H B
117 which the legislature killed
last year.
There Is a milk control bill
that will be fought very hard by
both sides.
The bill
to do aw ay w ith
World W ar I sinking fund is
easy because It has outlived its
usefulness; the bill to establish
once and for all the question of
the legal end of legislative term s
Is also an easy decision to make;
and providing that every legis
lative act shall em brace but one
subject is a needed reform.
There are tw o difficult
tax
measures and they are confusing
In their titles. One Is an amend-
nvent to the six P E R C E N T lim ­
itation w hich gives pow er to the
voters to establish a new base.
The other is a six M ILL lim ita­
tion w hich limits state property
taxes to six mills. Both are desir­
able, especially for property own
ers, but certainly they w ill lx*
difficult to understand and sep­
arate.
We Intend to discuss each one
carefu lly before election and to
recommend a vote on them from
inform ation
obtained
betw een
now and election and previously.
If the voters are to be satis­
fied with their part In the in iti­
ative and referendum — w hich Is
the m aking of Important deci­
sions— they m ust have Informa
t i w i on w h k h t'h ^ « n 'b T i 't h . T r
judgm ent.
T he state provides
argum ents pro and con in the
voters' pam phlet and this year
also provides an “explanation”
which m ay, or may not, In* of
value.
Our opinion is that all of these
w ill often* confuse as much u»
inform. W e think that newspap­
ers have a definite duty to do
their best at giving information
ubout election m easqfes and men.
This we iqjend to do to the e x ­
tent of our ability.

of a group of

w ore a bow tie except the man-
ager. He has a city Job.
There is no apparent reason
fo r it hut a lx»w tie is considered
a s o r t of affectation. W e don’t
know w hy. It does have certain
sartorial advantages and certain
practical ones.
It perm its a
sw eeping expanse of shirt front
for the m ajority that has dis­
carded the vest, so much of an
expanse tljat an advertising man
looks upon so much w hite space
w ith longing. It stays out of the
soup and tickles the chin or
chins.
¿Modern man, except for his
sum m ertim e shifts, often
com­
presses his liking for color in
his necktie. It is quite a strain,
to get a lot of color in a bow tie,
certainly more d ifficu lt than to
find space for It In a four-in-

can display field and stream,
southern palms, any or all por­

A lo w tie Is really more mod­
est. It Is much sm aller and ex ­
cept on the very lean Is often
obscured by chin.
It hasn't
nearly so much advertising space
