SELF-FINANCING PROJECT
Fourteen hundred outstate cars crossed the Reedsport
ferry in June. We believe the state might well borrow
money from the federal government to build a bridge across
the Umpqua river at this point and others on the new coast
highway. Interest and part of the principal on this loan
could be repaid with a small toll being charged to the thous­
ands of cars using them. Building of the five needed
bridges on the Coast highway would afford employment for
several hundred men.
The Rogue river bridge cost $653,000 of which the
state, paid $264,063:0" and the federal government $388,-
936.93. If the state should borrow a million dollars and re­
ceive federal support like it has on this one bridge then a
long way could be gone in building the other five.

The Southern Lane Tax conservation league has writ­
ten candidates for county offices asking them if they will
take a reduction in salary if elected. To answer this ques­
tion is a violation of the corrupt practice act and will lay any
candidate open to prosecution. After all it is the people’s
duty to set the salary of public office and no candidate
should go about promising remittance. If he feels he is not
worth the salary after he has been elected then it is all right
for him to give some of it back. If a general reduction in
public salaries is desired this matter should be talked over
with the candidates for the legislature and their support
enlisted.
Hope that there will be some revival in the lumber busi­
ness now- that a $3 tariff is in effect, is being expressed by
lumbermen. The Canadians rushed a big supplv of lumber
across the border just before the law went into effect and it
will take some time to absorb it. Strengthening of the hog
and cattle market the last few months is expected to stimu­
late some building in the middle west.
Oregon's election ballot will contain 13 measures offer­
ed to be voted Into law. The voter we think will regard them
as an unlucky number.
11 someone can produce a parasite for mosquitoes they
will have earned the everlasting gratitude of campers and
fishermen.

Signs of optimism—congress has adjourned and the
hog market has strengthened.

ALCOHOL, PRO AND CON
The propagandists are at work—some condemning
some pleading for alcohol. The family doctor should be a
good, honest judge, with absolutely nothing up his sleeve in
the way of political crookedness. He should be the capable
honest adviser of his patrons who look to him in all things
medical.
B
Alcohol compounds are extremely useful and conveni­
ent ax medicine. No honest, capable physician will deny that.
„Jl. u trUe h^ys'eians are against alcoholics as beverages.
Whiskey is a good servant —a had master. No true physi­
cian with the welfare of his people at heart will recommend
intemperance in anything.
Iant against propagandists who will stoop to falsehood
in order to carry out their designs. For instance, the fellow
who declares that alcohol is not a stimulant, but a depres-
aant, that it will stop a heart of respiratory apparatus rather
than revive it; I ve had 38 years of experience and I know
better.
Many hundred times I have revived my aged patient

LOVE TEMPERED BY DEPRESSION
Utah is the only western state showing an increase in
marriages during 1932 over the previous year, despite the
law in recent years prohibiting a man from having more
than one wife at a time in this great state. Oregon‘s de­
crease was 4.4 per cent.
Oregon’s marriage, birth and death statistics are some­
thing to be alarmed at as this state could not maintain its
present population by natural increase if it were not for the
help of California and other states of the union. While old
man depression may be holding down marriage and birth
rates the grim reaper goes on overtime and knows no let up
except In his battle with science which claims to have
lengthened the average human life 10 or 12 years.

AUTO LICENSE FEES
The state spent about seven million dollars last year
for maintenance, reconstruction and betterment of the pres­
ent state highways. The counties spent several millious
also. License fees from plate sales was about six and one
half million. In other words the present license fees do not
pay the upkeep bill on our present highway system.
The average automobile owner pays $21.33 for license
and that money i6 spent to keep the roads in condition for
him to travel over. The gas tax takes care of new con­
struction and bond interest and retirement of the original
cost of the road. In our opinion if a lower license fee means
less maintenance then it will be more than offset with
higher automobile operation cost over poorer roads.

Off again on again. The third highway commission
chairman nas bit tlte dust—Van Duzier, Ainsworth and
Scott. Several commissioners have also gone their way. If
this keeps up we might as well have one commissioner of
public works and Jet him also be the governor’s paid secre­
tary. These fellows who work for nothing don’t like to be
bossed so much.

"In the old Indian days It was

more fresh green grass because It
began to show up as soon as It
emerged from the soil,” explains
Professor Hyslop. "But they hau
