Dr. Frank Crane say? In hi? article In this b»u*
of the News that "the trouble with bootlegging is
that it pays and pays big. Whoever will take th**
profit out of this unholy business »ill be domg a
great service."
Take the profit out of selling and making of
moonshine and the bootlegger and moonshiner
will disappear. In other words take away the de­
mand and they will have no market -eliminate
the cause and there will be no effect. The trouble
with the present situation is that It tries to elimi­
nate the bootlegger and moonshiner and leaves
the demand for these people in effect. Conse-
entlv ever increasingly others spring up to take
Hr places. And the sad part about it is the
dealers and makers of moonshine for the most
part are young men—who were boys when the
galoons were in vogue.
Seemingly the only way to put the bootlegger
out of business is for the government to go into
ruinous competition with him. since there is no
wav to eliminate the demand for the liquor. But
of course this would be letting down the bars and
compromising with liquor and Dr. Crane says
"There Can Be No Compromise with Liquor.”
Like murder, arson and theft, the crimes of mak­
ing and selling booze will likely always be with
ns if we continue under the present conditions.
No one seems to have a solution which will satis­
fy the majority.

SOME SHOCKING ANSWERS
S
As chairman of the city industrial committee
we sometimes get some shocking answers to our
Inquiries about prospective industries. We learn­
ed that a large plant in the state was contemplat­
ing a move and forhwith wrote the manager a
letter inviting him to put it on our free site. After
thanking us for the courtesy shown be said that
his plant was to be moved but that is was going to
be moved out of Oregon "Where there wasn't so
many d--------- fools making the laws.” He also
said that invested capital wasn't safe in Oregon
where farmer and labor organizations constantly
Imposed a minority rule on it.
Answers flavored like this have come from peo­
ple outside the state, too. We often wonder how
widely this feeling exists, and to what extent It
has retarded development. Of course there is no
way of telling and we hope it is not far reaching
but we must admit it comes from numerous
Sources.
Filled with pride for our great state one U
tempted to say to these people that we don’t want
your kind because you would not make desirable
citizens anyway. But this would be "sour
grapes” because they are already good and sub­
stantial citizens and concerns of other states.

The liquor bulsness is like a deadly wrpent.
It is about as easy to regulate or make legal as
it is to tame a hyena.
It is essentially a wild beast.
It is ungfortunately aligned with conviviality.

It’s Here!
Gooyear’s New Balloon Tire
for Fords and Chevrolets
Ever since Balloon Tires were introduced,
Goodyear has been experimenting with
tread designs to develop a tread which would
match the Goodyear Balloon Carcass made
of SU PER TW tST Cord.
Eighty different treads have been tried with-
inthe past two years and hundreds of thous­
ands of miles run on test cars.
Finally, out of al, these tests has come the
new tire shown above.
It is the famous Goodyear All-Weather
Tread scientifically redesigned for Balloon
Tire use.
The first big advantages of this new tread
are traction and resistance to skidding.
The sharp-edged diamond-shaped blocks are
placed in a semi-flat design so that they not
only grip the road but they retain their use­

fulness longer than any non-skid tread ever
before tried.
The second big advantage is long, slow, even
tread wear as opposed to the “cupping" and
uneven wear so noticable on many other
Balloon Tires.
And with these virtues of traction, non-skid
and long wear this new tread is perfectly
quiet and does not produce the vibration of
many non-skid designs.
With the Goodyear SU P E R TW IS T Carcass
and the new Goodyear Balloon All-Weather
Tread, you have the safest, longest wear­
ing. most trouble-free tire Goodyear has
ever produced.
We have this new tire in the 29x4.40 size for

Importance of farm ftjrestry as a
means of lessening agricultural sur­
pluses and meeting the problem ot
agricultural over production, and the
resulting dr-pression In the farming In­
dustry. Regarding (he part forestry

dent said:
"One-fourth of our soil la better
suited to timber-growing than any­
thing else. I can not escape the con­
viction that our Industrial and agri­
cultural stability « ill be strengthened
by bringing Into full productive use
this great empire of land. Although
much progress has been made in pub­
lic forestry and hope-fill beginnings In
private forestry, we still have vast
aggregate of Idle or semi-idle forest
land, and another large aggregate of
poor farm land that might more pro­
fitably grow timber Instead of adding
to the problem of agricultural over­
production."
Agricultural would find In timber
growing a strong ally, the President
said, providing markets for farm pro­
duce aiU for surplus labor.
