CI fCWHGONjfcS; STATE I (
NO TLME TO TAMPER.
A GOOD move was made by the
"V Oregon State Motor association
in passing resolutions asking the
legislature not to tamper with the
present road program being carried
out by the state highway commis
sion. The resolution was passed in
answer to many rumors relative to
proposed legislation affecting high
way revenues and expenditures.
Having allied itself with the orig
inal legislative road program and
the work of the highway commis
sion created at that time, the motor
association expressed confidence in
the manner in which the commis
sion has conducted itself, and re
solved itself against interference of
any kind at the present time. It
further resolved itself, at its 14th
. annual meeting in Portland, Janu
ary 21, against any increase in tax
ation of motor vehicles or any at
tempt to lower the income of the
highway department; in favor of
the enactment of uniform motor
traffic laws in accordance with the
recommendations of the National
Conference on Streets and Highway
Safety and the Pacific Coast Motor
Vehicle conference, promising to
make every effort to secure similar
legislation by neighboring states;
recommending that all cities and
towns in the state of Oregon adopt
the uniform motor vehicle traffic or
dinance in order to prevent confu
sion among tourists who visit the
state. .
Any interference with the pro
gram, still far from completed,
would undoubtedly result in politi
cal haggling that would only delay
good roads progress and that at in
creased expense to the state.
AN AWARD FOR MERIT.
WHEN one picks up a paper af
ter the press has stopped run
ning, in that relaxation period
which follows the rush and hubbub
of press day in the country print
shop, and his wandering glance
picks up the many little inaccura
cies and flaws that creep in, in spite
of the best efforts of the editorial
and mechanical force to at least
turn out a paper that may be en
tirely free from error, one almost
despairs of the possibility of ever
turning our a newspaper that would
in every way be faultless.
Such an ideal does prevail in the
mind3 of many country editors,
however, and in a constant striving
to make each succeeding issue a lit
tle better than the one before, such
an editor takes cognizance of bet
ter methods and devices applied by
other progressive papers which
come to his notice.
The Gazette Times has ever held
itself open to the reception of new
tnougnts ana suggestions for im
provement. It has been among
newspapers pioneering the field in
many generally adopted practices.
Large expenditures of money have
been necessary at intervals to keep
the mechanical equipment up to the
standard demanded by changing of
the times. But confidence in the
wisdom of such business practice
has resulted in the management
making such a move whenever it
was felt to be within the bounds of
reason to meet requirements of its
field.
That the course followed has
brought this newspaper to be recog
nized as one of the leading period
icals of its kind in the state natur
ally brings a degree of satisfaction
to the "force," but when the silver
loving cup won in the contest spon
sored by Sigma Delta Chi, national
honorary journalism fraternity, at
the recent press conference in Eu
gene, is displayed to the people of
Morrow county, assurance is given
that the Gazette Times will not rest
on its laurels, but continue the same
policies and practices that have
brought such recognition, and strive
in the future as in the past to give
Morrow county people one of the
best newspapers published in the
state.
LIKE all newly elected governors
Julius Meier made his salutatory
bow, and rhetorical entree Monday.
He said what aJl governors good
and bad have said since men have
been elevated into the king's row,
and that is that we have too many
laws and we owe and spend too
much. All true, and was true 100
years ago, and a 1000 years ago.
What are you going to do about it?
If the legislature follows the new
governor's ideas expressed in his
message, we will have a lot of new
laws. Oregon, and its political sub
divisions, owe $230,000,000. Quite a
little sum but not as much as when
the legislature serves its 40 days.
Mr. Meier Buggests that we abolish
the public service commission of
three members and create one of
one member. The electric power,
without cost to the tax payer, has
now been reduced to a memorial to
congress. Mr. Meier has our pro
found sympathy. He has a hard
deal and a rough road and he will
find that there is but little apprecia
tion In the electorate, and that he
may go out of office with the same
splendid majority with which he
went in. He is entitled to a most
charitable consideration and neith
er himself nor his administration
should be criticised or condemned
for isolated errors, but judged for
its greatest good. Blue Mountain

OVERPRODUCTION ON THE
FARM.
Autocaster Service.
IN SOME parts of the country far
mers have token seriously the
warning of the Federal Farm Board
against overproduction. In other
parts they have paid no attention to
it. and have sowed more winter
wheat than last year.
It will take a long time before
farmers are so well organized and
information about crop conditions
and production so well understood
by all of them, that they will not
plant too much. But it is as true as
anything ever said' from a pulpit
that the principal trouble with ag
riculture, insofar as agriculture can
do anvthing about it, is that too
many " farmers are growing too
much of the same commodity, not
only in America but all over the
world.
Chairman Legge of the Farm
Board pointed out the other day
that Nebraska has cut down the
winter wheat acreage twelve per
cent. If all of the other wheat
growing regions did the same thing,
and kept their spring sowing down
in the same proportion, the result
would certainly be vastly larger re
turns for every wheat grower. But
every farmer who plants as much
to wheat this year as he did last
vear is reducing his own income and
causing all of the other wheatgrow
ers to lose also. Nobody makes any
money on wheat when it is as low
as it has been for the past year; ev
erybody would make money on it if
there were only half of much of it
grown and in the market.
Missouri and Arkansas nave some
excuse for sowing more wiuier
wheat than a year ago. The drought
hit those states harder than it did
most of the rest of the wheat coun
try, and much of the winter wheat
sown there is for pasturage for live
stock. Wheat-feeding to cattle and
hogs has proved a very successful
and profitable way of using up the
surplus. But all of the efforts of
the Government to stabilize produc
tion of the staple crops and to or
ganize their marketing on an or
derly basis will be futile until all
farmers, everywhere, get into the
habit of working together toward
the same end. And that end is
smaller crops of everything with
higher prices per unit of production.
Better five dollars an acre proht
from a hundred acres than a dollar
an acre loss from five hundred
acres.
THE UPTURN IN BEGINNING.
Autocaster Service.
REPORTS from all over the coun
try are to the effect that the
Christmas trade everywhere was far
better than merchants had antici
pated, and that stocks of merchan
dise have been so far sold out that
the shelves are practically bare in
many sections in every line of goods.
This month in the larger cities
the big stores are cashing in with
post-holiday bargain sales to clear
off the rest of their stocks, and peo
ple are buying much more freely
than six months ago.
That is the most encouraging
sign of the times, it means, ot
course, that the retailers have got
to begin buying right away from
the wholesalers, who in turn have
got to send their orders to the mills
and factories. The wheels will be
gin to turn more rapidly as soon as
this flood of new buying orders -is
under full headway. Men will go
back to work, and in turn will have
money to spend.
Unless something unforseen hap
pens, we cannot look for an instant
return to the old prosperity. It will
creep upon us unawares, as it has
always done in the past, until some
morning, while most of us are still
croaking about hard times, every
body will realize at the same mo
ment that the hard times are over.
That is what has always happened,
and there is no reason to think it
won't happen that way this time.
RELIABLE MAN WANTED to
call on farmers in Morrow county.
Wonderful opportunity. Make $8 to
$20 daily. No experience or capital

HEREDITY
Thinking people evolve theories,
based on a more or less extensive
period of observation; but theories
are not always facts. It is a com
mon deduction among people to be
lieve that, because a parent was af
flicted with a certain fatal disease,
his child or children were in line
for the same terrible calamity; and,
many distress themselves in this be
lief. The fact is, the TENDENCY, not
the disease, may be inherited. Hu
man tissue differs in certain famil
ies, much as the plants about us dif
fer in individual texture. Certain
woods decay quicker than others;
this is true of the human structure
as well.
Perhaps the most tenable theory
today is, that mental disorders are
strongly hereditary. Within a cer
tain limitation this seems to be
true; yet, it does not always prove
out that insanity is positively hered
itary; l have known several in
stances where parents that died in

JESUS THE GREAT PHYSICIAN
Luke 4:38-44; 5:12-16.
REV. SAMUEL D. PRICE, D. D.
Jesus is now well started in the
second year of His public ministry
and the'work centers in Galilee.
During the year, following the
Temptation, He wrought in Judea.
One incident Is remembered by all:
the conversation with Nicodemus
which gives us the great truth in
John 3:16. The rejection by His fel
low townsmen in Nazareth caused
Jesus to make Capernaum the cen
ter of activity.

sane, left children of brilliant and
lasting mentality. Dear reader, if
you have had the regrettable fact
of an insanity among your immedi
ate ancestors or near relatives, the
very best thing for you to do is, to
forget it right now! In other words,
you may work an unspeakable harm
to your own sensitive nervous sys
tem, by torturing yourself constant
ly wtih the thought of when you
must in all likelihood, go the same
way!
Your tendency, if any, can be
overcome by self-discipline. Do not
over-tax a delicate nerve structure.
Your nervous system will last for
full time, if you do not urge it be
yond its strength to bear. The sheet
on which I am writing may outlast
the strongest sole-leather, if it is
taken care of for what it will stand.
The overcoming of tendency is
possible always. Keep away from
the causes of break-down, whether
it be body or mind. Worry Is one
of the most potent causes of insan
ity. The man with a "tendency"
mustn't worry remember that, and,
live out your full expectation.
period of popular favor. In the
language of today, the Nazarene
was first page news. This was due
in part to the frequency of His mir
acles. People were alert to see what
He would do next.
Simon Peter had been called as a
disciple, and later as one of the
apostles. As Jesus entered that
home in Capernaum He learned that
the mother-in-law was bedridden
with a prostrating fever. With a
word of divine power the Almighty
spoke her into health which was eo

necessary by the guests. Likewise

sins is an act rather than a process
