The gem started when Quckman kicked off for Heppner. lone was held for three downs and Bristow punted on the fourth down.

The game was featured by the dropkicking of Ralph Moore of Heppner and the line plunging of Bristow and Graves of lone.

So it's up to us to vote the antagonistic Income Tax Law out of existence! For it has already lost for Oregon payrolls amount ing to more than six million dollars ($6,000,000) a year! And six million dollars means at least 3000 families who; are lost to Oregon's popula tion in just one year under this dangerous law. Oregon needs Jobs and Markets The Income Tax hills both! Vote 312X YES and kill the Income Tax! If there arc two things Oregon needs above all others it is ( 1 ) jobs for her workers, and (2) markets for her products. Every new enterprise or in dustry brought into Oregon means more jobs. Jobs support population. Ev ery increase in population means a better market for farm and factory products. Yet the income tnx law antagonizes industries and enterprises. Many au thentic cases are on file where industries MOVED OUT OF OREGON OR DECIDED NOT TO COME TO OREGON because of the income tax law. Counting loss of capital invested, purchases and payroll, this loss is already conservatively estimated at more than $40,000,000. The payroll loss alone is already over $6,000,000 a year I Thi It at halt nfanned to eelaMtah nor Morthweet beadquanrre in Portland.

The customer who quits and says nothing The insidious thing about this law is that incJuitriet do not complain they simply pack up and move to another state I They are like the customer who quits and says nothing you never know he is dissatisfied nor why hence have no chance to irnke matters right with him. Many large concerns who left or stayed out of Ore gon on account of the income tax refused to allow us to use their name because they did not want to be made to appear as tax dodgers and yet they could not af ford to carry a tax burden in Oregon which they did not need to pay In California or Washington! There is an old adage which says, "Business is sensitive. It goes only where it is invited and stays only where it is well treated."
