TAXATION ANO TIMBER
The northwest lumber business last year totalled about
$160,000,000 and showed no net profit. The tax bill of the
lumber industry last year was roughly $65.000,000 and must
come out of the pockets of the timber and sawmill owners
who have not made a cent of profit but faced a loss in the
operation of their plants in order to provide some employ
ment.
It is evident that this sort of taxation can not go on.
It is another case of “slaying the goose that lays the golden
egg.” The lumber industry should pay a yield tax as the
timber is cut at least in lieu of a good part of the property
tax. This would not only be the fair way but it would be
showing a sensible attitude toward this great industry
which is now in grave danger of being taxed to execution.

SUPPORT THE NEW CHANCELLOR
Dr. William Kerr has been named chancellor of the
state institutions of higher learning. He takes the reigns
after a period of uncertainty and divided authority and with
a political wrecking crew in the shape of the Zorn-McPher-
son bill on the job at the November election.
The purpose of the institutions of higher learning is to
properly train the conduct and educate the youth of the
state. In this the state at large has been setting a poor
example recently. And even with the high quality leader
ship of Dr. Kerr these institutions will not maintain the
standards they should without the united and loyal support
of the people of Oregon.
Dr. Kerr has been chosen chancellor. It is up to the
people of the state to back him up and militantly combat
every influence that trends to tear down our institutions of
higher learning.

HOW WILL THE WOMEN VOTE?
W’e don’t know who is going to be the next president of
the United States, and we are not quite sure about who will
represent some of our own districts in the next congress,
but are are beginning to feel pretty sure that the women
of the United States are going to have a good deal more to
say about it this year than we men.
According to the United States census of 1930, there
are just about 35.000,000 women over 21 years of age in this
country. We have lived long enough to know that it is
never safe to predict what a woman is going to do, but we
have a strong hunch that most of these girls are going to
get out and vote next election day, and that they are going
to pay a great deal more attention to the issues of the cam
paign than to the personalities of the candidates.
Before the days of woman suffrage the opponents of
the notion that women ought to have a vote had a favorite
argument that women would vote for the handsome boys,
because they liked their hair or the way they tie their
neckties.
It hasn’t worked out exactly that way. We haven’t
noticed any movie stars going into the senate, and we have
seen some of the worst looking specimens of mankind we
ever laid eyes on occupying seats in congress and other pub
lic offices.
They used to say that women would vote the way their
husbands or fathers or brothers told them. We never did
have much faith in that argument. It is our observation
that the best way to get a woman to do something is to tell
her to do something else.
Seriously, we not only believe, but we hope, that the wo
men’s vote is going to be a big factor in the coming election.
Almost every woman we know anything about is instinc
tively frugal, while probably most men we know would
be spendthrifts if they had anything to spend. What is need
ed now more than anything else is a general housecleaning
in government and lopping off of unnecessary expenses
everywhere. We would very much rather trust the women
—any group of women—to do the job than we would trust
a similar group of men.
THE DAY OF REST
1 feel sure our editor will pardon me, if I seem at times
a little old-fashioned; there are so many flimsy, new theor
ies now—and so much untried stuff advanced, that it is re
freshing to go back to the old trundle-bed for a bit of old-
fashioned comfort once in awhile.
Isn’t the family doctor a sort of guardian in his com
munity? I think so—a trusted mentor and friend. He,
above all others must conclude God’s laws are always right.
So, there’s a seventh day for rest. It has been so for
centuries. That assumes that we work six days. He set
the example for us, In this matter of first importance. Well,
how many of us observe the law—or follow the Divine ex
ample? How many of us pay the penalty which is sure,
after many, flagrant violations?
I am afraid that the church, ambitious to succeed in a
holy cause, approaches very close to transgression when it
fills the Sabbath with exacting ceremonies. Sunday is the
day of all days when I keep my eye on the clock, to see that
1 shall not be late at any of by denomination's ordinances.
I have somehow acquired the feeling that, if I am late, or
neglectful of formal statutes on Sunday, I am not living up
to my duty as a God-fearing man -a would-be setter of
good example in my community. So Sunday has become
almost a day of exacting requirement, with but little REST.
1 wonder if God wants it that way?
