troy the beauty of our streets.
One councilman put a letter in
the Tidings that he was against
destroying m ain st., and th at he
was in favor of a truck route,
I answ ered his letter.
Then 1 called the mayor of the
city, and had 20 m inutes talk
with him. We discussed Main
St. and the truck route. That was
six weeks ago. lie promised to
call me the next week, Tuesday,
but so far, th at day hasn’t come.
However, he stated, a truck
route m eans a bypass, tourists
would pass our city, and our
business men could not operate.
I recom mended to put a sign up
stating, Truck route only.
This candidate stated, that he
was against a truck route, as
you know I stand for a truck
route, to keep the danger, noise

I do not believe In wlshy w ash­

defeated, I stand for one way
only, fairness and truth.
I was told a truck route, was
surveyed along the rallro a d
tracks three years ago, yet noth­
ing has been done about it. Now
they claim action will be taken
after elections.
The present city adm inistra­

But not as ridiculous as it sounds, Mrs. Housewife!
Remember back in the '30’s when you could feed your family well for about
-• .0 0 a month? If someone had said then that in 1948 you could only
feed your family skimpily at $90.00 a month you would have exclaimed
“R idiculous!” But your food costs are flying high.
A NEW MONOPOLY FURTHER THREATENS YOUR FOOD COSTS!
A smsll group—the Gillnetter’s union — want a “closed
shop” on the Columbia River salmon catch. They are
getting 70% of the total catch now but they want ALL!
So they are aiming at your pocketbook—by trying to
eliminate the fixed gear that only catch 20% of the
salmon. Remember, thia 20% is the balance that can keep
your salmon prices in bounds; keep your entire meat
budget from ballooning out of sight.
F IG H T T H IS FOOD M O N O PO LY N O W — YOU CAN PR E V E N T IT FRO M H A P P E N IN G !
The facts show—as reported by the Oregon
Fish Commission, June, 1948, that all that hap­
pens when you ban fixed gear is that more fish
are caught by gillnets.
So, this bill to eliminate fixed gear is not
conservation of salmon, but absolute control of
the salmon catch. You housewives have had
experience with such monopolies. You know
what happens to your household expenses!
Usually you have had to fight A FT E R these
conditions exist. Now you can fight B E FO R E
it is formed. I t w ill be much easier to prevent
this “closed shop on the Columbia” by voting
319-X-NO.
