WILLAMETTE HIGHWAY NOT APPRECIATED
It looks to us that the reason that work is not to con­
tinue on the Willamette highway above Oakridge this next
year is because the federal bureau of roads appropriation
is to be used elsewhere by the Oregon slate highway de­
partment. We teel that the engineers and other people in
the state do not see the real importance of the Wiilamette
highway. Portland should be alter this road ahead of some
of her routes to the sea if she appreciates its true worth.
In effect Klamath Palls and south central Oregon have
been a part of the San Francisco trading area. The building
of the railroad from Bend has changed this somewhat but
it will take a first class highway to really break California s
strangle hold on this territory. The Willamette highway
when completed will put Klamath Falls 80 miles closer to
Portland by motor, if Portland were awake to this ad­
vantage she would be working for the Willamette highway.

NEW FEDERAL BUILDING IN SIGHT
Eugene is to have the help of Congressman W. C.
Hawley in securing a new postoft'ice building. The con­
gressman is against further additious on the old building
aud no doubt ii Eugene makes the proper showing it will
get a new building. In the postofiice appropriations is
carried a $260,000 item for the Eugene postoffice, but it is
believed that a new federal building here sufficient to take
care of both the postofiice and forestry service will cost
more mouej. Mr. liawley secured the first allotment aud
no doubt he will be able to have it increased if the postoffice
department is favorable thereto.
THE WORKER AND THE LAND
Under the wonderfully stable government which has
been set up in Czechoslovakia since the war, the industrial
workers have a greater sense of security than in any other
country, including our own.
When this new nation was formed out of territory which
used to be part of Austria, a little more than twelve years
ago, its people chose lor their president Professor Masaryk
of Columbia University, New York. A native of what used
to be called “Bohemia,” he had been laboring for years for
his country's independence. When his people finally were
uoerated by the Treaty ot Versailles and he became their
leader, he surrounded himself with strong, intelligent men
aud began to worn out a system w hereby every man in the
nation should be independent
One of the first things the new nation did was to take
over all of the huge estates, many of them owndd by citizens
of other countries, and divide them up into small farms,
which were sold or rented to families which had never been
able to hold land before. The next thing was to organize the
industries of the nation, with the result that Czechoslova­
kian efiiciency 'is lamous throughout Europe. President
merely took American experts over there and had them
show the manuiacturers of that country American methods.
But the most important variation from the American
system is a provision whereby every industrial worker will
eventually have at least one acre of land surrounding his
home. This has been accomplished in many of the indus­
trial centers and it is only a question of time when it will be
the rule throughout Czechoslovakia. The avowed purpose
is to refuse employment to any man of family who will not
agree to live on one of these tracts.
There are several lessons we could learn Pom a closer
study of some of the smaller nations of Europe. The princi­
pal one which all of them have to teach, however, is that
you cannot separate the mass of the people very far from
the land without subjecting them to unnecessary risks. And
the next one is that when every worker is a landowner
there is no danger of revolution.
Commissioner Spaulding takes a dig at the engineering
department of the highway commission. He says it is a
closed corporation and one is supposed not to cross it be­
cause some valuable man will be lost. However, he re­
marks that Oregon is paying larger wages than most states
to these engineers and he can not believe they are going to
run away from their jobs here. We can't figure out whether
Mr. Spaulding expects to do some house cleaning in the
department or is just trying to put the boys on their toes
and perhaps get a little more work done. Anyhow he is
Governor Meier’s man and must be listened to.
>BRUC
NEEDED!
I left my family in Eranee and started back across the
ocean, alone. There was none of the thrill that usually
comes with heading toward America, none of the joy of
coming home.
For a couple of days I was depressed! Everything I cared
for was behind me; I was sailing into silence.
Theii one day the wireless spoke.
“Have arranged the following appointments for you,”
by partner wired. “Tuesday after your arrival, Baltimore.
Wednesday. Pittsburgh; Thursday, Friday, Chicago. Best
wishes. Please confirm.”
Immediately came a feeling of relief and cheer. "I have
work to go back to.” I exclaimed. Duties are waiting to
keep me alert and a little worried and on my toes.”
I was relating the incident to the chairman of the board
of a large corporation.
“I know just how you felt,” he said. “I've organized our
company so well tliat I’ve almost organized myself out of a
job. But every now and then a really big problem comes
along, and the boys have to send for me. A hurry call came
to my home from Chicago last Sunday, and I had to leave
on an hour’s notice. My wife thought it was a hardship,
and of course I let her believe that we men lead terrible
lives. But all the way out on the train my spirit was sing­
ing: ‘Somebody wants me, I have work to do.’ ”
Joseph Medill was asked: “What is the greatest pleasure
of your life?”
"To feel
I am at play when I am at work,”he ans­
wered.

the state's business over to the one
