WHY NOT THE
CUT OFF"?
"CAUFORJOA
T OCALLY, most everyone now un-
Ij derstands just what is meant
when the Heppner-Spray road Is
mentioned. There has been discuss
ion, however, as to whether this
name is sufficient to convey the
largeness of the project to the out
side world.
"Heppner - Spray" conveys only
the connecting up of two points,
either of which is not a great me
tropolis, and the name is not one
to create the interest of people out
side the immediate district At the
same time the project is one of im
portance to a large portion of the
Pacific Northwest and California,
for its completion will provide a
cut-off, saving many miles from
eastern Oregon, eastern Washington
and points north and east, to cen
tral and southern Oregon and Can
fornia.
A name suggested which would
better describe the project, it ap
pears to this newspaper, is the
"California Cut-Off." would can
fornians prick up their ears at the
mention of a California Cut-Off in
Oregon? And travelers from the
north and east headed south should
become Immediately interested at
its mention also. We would like to
see the name adopted.
By adopting this name, all the
route from the end of the ucnoco
highway at Mitchell to the Oregon-
Washington highway at Heppner
could be designated, when such
time comes that it shall be included
on the state map. The name would
now be useful in giving the route
the publicity it deserves.
The project is growing in popular
ity, as shown by the enthusiasm
with which its presentation was
greeted by the Grant county court
last week. The route is important
to Grant county as it will assist
greatly in the development of that
rich section. There can be no op
position of merit once the project
is thoroughly understood by the
state at large.
The Heppner Hons club has un
dertaken a program of propaganda
far reaching in extent When this
is carried to completion certain in
terests that have been reported to
be knocking the project will have a
change of mind, for the grounds on
which they are reputed to be bas
ing their attack are unfounded.
IS IT THE BEST POLICY?
WE have no quarrel with the city
tax levying board whose propos
ed budget for adoption at the De
cember meeting of the city council
provides for reducing by some $3000
the amount to be raised by taxation.
No taxpayer desires to see his tax
bill grow, and any reduction is wel
come. Still there is a point which
we believe will bear some thought
before the proposed budget is voted.
In view of the fact that in any
one year, a municipal, or other pub
lic tax levying body, is prohibited by
state statute from increasing the
amount to be raised by taxation
more than 6 per cent of the amount
raised the previous year, there is a
chance that things might become
stringent with the city purse strings
if finances are cut too close.
One deduction from last year not
ed in the proposed budget appears
under the item "maintenance and
bridges," which sum is that used
for construction of bridges and the
maintenance of streets. A reduc
tion in the item was made because

LIVING WITH PEOPLE OF OTHEB
RACES
Act 10:9-15, 30-35; Galatians 3:23-29
Rev. Samuel D. Price, D.D.
Religion must work to be practi
cal and one reason that interferes
with its working is the superiority
complex that too many have; It
merely makes them over self-conscious
and miserable. By doing just
a little study and traveling about a
modest amount one soon learns that
there are others who are worthy of
our highest esteem. Very often we
find that these others are really do
ing bigger things under vastly
harder conditions than we are ac
complishing. Very illuminating pas
sages of Scripture are chosen for
our study this week. In addition to
those given above look up, with
care, Ruth I, 1-18; John 4:5-10; Acta
10:1-11 and Romans 1:14.
Mutual needs help greatly In be
ing vitally interested in other na
tions. One of the finest love stories
is that of Naomi, the Jewess, and
Ruth, the Moabltess, her daughter-in-law.
Ruth would rather be an
alien In Jewry than live at home
without Naomi. Here was a pre
cious friendship that thrived Irre
spective of all national boundaries.
Boaz and Ruth did not find any
problem about lnter-racial marriage
as their lives were bound together
in abiding love. It is right to be
proud of one's nationality, but it Is
presumptuous to conclude that oth
ers cannot serve humanity as welL

there apparently will be no neces
sity for building any bridges next
year, the major needs in this line
having been cared for this year.
wmie there may be no bridges
to build next year, the city has an
investment of several thousand dol
lars in graveled streets made last
year, the depreciation on which has
already been quite large and which
will become larger If proper main
tenance is not provided for. At the
time the gravel was put on, it had
to be stretched pretty thin to cover
the area allotted, and the work was
not of a permanent nature.
Would it not be good business to
spend a little more to save the in
vestment already made? By pro
viding for a little more gravel each
year, and shaping up the streets
the system used in state road work
it would not be many years be
fore the streets would be perman
ently hard sui faced, especially If
on be added in future years, then
the maintenance cost would become
very slight Other cities have ad
opted a similar policy of street
building with successful results.
WHAT HAPPENED IN WALL
STREET.
THE principal sufferers from the
slump in the stock market are
the business enterprises which pur
vey luxuries to the newly rich. One
New York "beauty parlor" which
charged a minimum fee of $25 for a
"treatment" has already closed its
doors. The "exclusive" jewelry shops
where no customer was really wel
come unless he had a hundred
thousand dollars to spend report a
decided falling off in sales. One
Fifth Avenue furrier who had im
ported sdme Russian sables has had
the garment thrown back on his
hands and is now advertising it for
sale for a mere $30,000!
Slackening of trade in things like
those represents no real economic
loss; quite the contrary. The $50,
000 which the furrier did not get
for his sables is now in the hands
of gentlemen who know what to do
with money. It will be invested in
something which will enable some
great manufacturing establishment
to add a dozen workers to its pay
roll. And that is worth more to all
of us than a dozen sable wraps.
There is just as much money in
the country as there was. Payrolls
are as large as ever, and growing.
The businesses whose shares have
declined in price are earning as
Highest in the World
' Rising 68 stories and at least 808
feet from the ground, and erected at
a cost of over flS,000,000, the new
Chrysler Building in the heart of
New York at Lexington Avenue and
42nd Street is the tallest structure
in the world.
This matter of service is one of the
basic tests of national worth.
Jesus taught a lesson that many
found it hard to learn when he ad
dressed the Samaritan woman as
they sat at Jacob's Well. The real
question was not that of a superior
place or race but rather of an ac
knowledgment or the one True God.
Again it was demonstrated that re
lationship to Jehovah and service
to mankind are of greater moment
than earthly lineage.
The same lesson is continuously
taught with the growth of the Chris
tian church. An early problem was
to have the teachers think right to
ward those of various nations. The
work of the Holy Spirit on the Day
of Pentecost, following the sermon
of Peter, was a disclaimer of pro
vincialism. There was a common
blessing for all who would believe.
But even Peter needed a special
teaching vision to make him ready
to go with the divine message to the
home of Cornelius, the Roman cen
turion. The world is still trying to
learn "What God hath cleansed,
make not thou common." Peter's
conviction, as expressed in the
household of Cornelius, was "I per
ceive that God is no respecter of
persons."
Paul was an ultra-conservative
Jew, but as he grew In experience
he boldly declared that inherent
worth was the test rather than the
geographical place of birth. What
a man is doing counts for more than
how he came into being. That was
an incident over which he had no
control.

AWAKENING
Five o'clock in the morning. The
hum of a motor comes in at my
open window ... a realization that
the new day has arrived exactly on
time. Other motors rattle in their
loose running-gears; the growl the
treble of human voices add to the
evidence that the morning is on
the town is awakening.
Soon the blare will be on, the
rush, the helter-skelter, mad chase
for daily bread, if not more the
town is getting on Its feet after a
night of rest; the swelling energy
manifests itself; the odor of brown
ing bacon the aroma of delicious
coffee the snap of the electric
toaster. .. . . A new sheet is in the
typewriter; thoughts come cheerily
in the sweet morning air the town
is awakening.
An area of concerted effort, the
contact of elbow with elbow, the
purr of breathing in unison, the
glow of the municipal soul. Every
man at his post the day is on.
Routine may become deadly. A
town afflicted with routine may be
much as they did before. The folk
who have lost money are those who
tried to get something for nothing
by buying stocks at more than they
were worth in order to resell them
to others who were even more gulli
ble. What has really happened Is that
a vast amount of money and credit
has been taken out of the hands of
wasters and has got Into the bank
accounts of men of constructive
vision. Most of this money will now
go into useful channels.

My town is awake, if you will

That is encouraging to everybody
but the sentimentalists who let their
pity for a sick old man obscure
their indignation at his betrayal of
his trust. It is time that a few men
who have used their official posi
tions to feather their own nests
were put in jail. Nobody believes
that Fall is the only public official
who ever took a bribe. The general
belief is that such things are com
mon among the men who adminis
ter public affairs. This cynical atti
tude on the part of the public ac
counts for a great deal of the disre
spect for law which is one of the
grave conditions In America today.

have already done much to dispel
the notion that a man in high
office can commit a crime and es
cape punishment. The conviction

of a few more unfaithful servants
would help restore confidence in law
and justice.
Albert Peterson, Ukiah stockman,
was in Heppner the first of the
week on business. He recently
rented 5000 acres of pasture In the
Pilot Rock country for the use of
his cattle this winter, and has pur
chased a quantity of chaff to use
in conjunction with the new pas
ture. Mr. Peterson is building up
quite an extensive raw fur business,
having put about $14,000 worth of
pelts on the market last year. These
were secured in three weeks in part
of Umatilla and Grant counties.
This year Mr. Peterson Is branch
ing out and will be in position to
handle raw furs taken In Morrow
county. He was in the city Monday.
Arnold Pieper reports that the
new well on his place is now com
pleted. A. M. Edwards had charge
of the work which was begun in
July, with a layoff of some six
weeks. At a depth of 337 feet a
flow of 60 gallons per minute was
struck, and this is considered suffi
cient by Mr. Pieper, so the work
has ceased.
