We can sympathize with the house wife if she becomes a bit petulent at complaints of hubby and the kids about meals not being just right when she has the house topsy-turvy at clean-up time. Those drop ping in at the Gazette Times office this week were no doubt at first im pressed that the place had been hit by a tornado, until their nostrils were attacked by the keen stench of fresh paint and they saw Frank Roberts perched on a step ladder, wielding a mean brush. Mr. Rob erts, the landlord, is giving the old shop a good working over, and there is alreay evidence that the spring sunlight will henceforth re' fleet a brighter interior but will it ever be possible to obliterate all those paint splotches? The experience is a bit trying, but no doubt the stray drippings of the paint brush will be eventually put to rout; a great amount of miscel laneous litter will have been dis posed of, withal, and when the shop is once more in order, certainly the disagreeableness of a week or two will be repaid in the following months of lving in a brighter, clean' er home. It takes a bit of philosophy to carry the tender nature through all the grime and cobwebs of the spring clean-up. When one looks at the paint bespattered stove, it is well to think, "anyway, we're lucky it's not a grand piano," or if a tear rops from the brush through the gap of the shirt collar, one might opine that "maybe a bath before Saturday night won t do any harm, now that the weather has warmed up a bit." But since the clean-up bug bit Mr. Roberts, we wondered if we couldn't "sic" the little insect onto a lot of other folks, starting an epi demic of bites. Misery loves com pany, you know. But we're not alone in the desire. The city dads have ordered a general clean-up day next Monday. It's not the grime and cobwebs within, but the trash litters without the homes of the city that have their concern, And to facilitate the cleaning they are providing free transportation to the city dump grounds. No, it's not a new idea, the idea that spring is clean-up time. Fact is, that's just the natural order. And though we nurse a blister or two, and maybe ache a bit at the Joints, don't we always feel a lot better after things have been tidied up again? ANSWERS GILL ATTACK. To the Editor : Under the heading "A discussion of the Sales Tax Bill," last Satur day afternoon at Cecil, the Pomona grange heads saw to it that there was no rebuttal by the affirmative speaker. Thus Mr. Gill was per mitted to refute all that he could of the affirmative argument and make several vicious remarks con cerning the 1933 legislature of Ore eon. This is the second time that the .writer has heard these remarks made before a gathering of citizens of this county, and never having an opportunity to refute them, takes this method to let the people of Morrow county know the facts sur rounding the passage of the sales tax bill. In this statement, I do not at tempt to make an argument for the sales tax, but rather to defend one of Oregon's departments of govern' merit, the legislature. Mr. Gill stated that there was a "Wall Street Lobby" in Salem dur ing the last special session of the legislature, to put over the sales tax bill. I do not accuse Mr. Gill of dishonesty, but I do believe, that in this case he is 100 mistaken There were meetings of the legisla tors, perhaps 30 or 40 of them at a time at various places to discuss the sales tax, but at no time was anyone else present. The measure was given very earnest considera tion by every member, but this writer was never approached by any lobbyist at any time concern ing the sales tax. True we did re ceive many letters and telegrams from our own districts, but If wall Street had any interest in Oregon'i sales tax, it certainly was never made manifest to me. Mr. Gill laments the fact that the legislature passed another sales tax when the former had been voted down such a short time before. The legislature was composed of men and women, who, on the average, are every bit the equal of Mr. Gill, both mentally and morally. They were looking toward a plan of equal taxation and good government, and it seems strange, as Mr. Gill con' tends, that so many of them were wrong and so few right The real fact is that the members of the leg. iBlature believed that the people generally did not know the need of a sales tax nor did they know the Drovislons of the tax because they the constant appeal to prejudice that was always before them. The sales tax had been pictured as a Wall Street vulture ready to pounce upon the last morsel of bread of the poor man to relieve the rich; even though the specific provisions of the bill were that it was an emergency measure for two years only, it was represented that if the bill ever got on the statute books, it would be there forever; that it would be con stantly increased until all taxes would be raised in this way and that no other tax would be Imposed. These statement remind me of the words of Harrington Emerson, "Of ten the main difficulties in the path of progression are not the real and tangible difficulties, but the imagin ary spectres that terrorize and par alyze some part of the soul. . . . Men are tormented by the opinions they have of things rather than the things themselves." The members of the legislature, realizing that most men considered the schools a matter of importance second only to that of self-preservation, voted for the tax only as an emergency measure, with the hope that school support might be taken care of more directly by the state and not have to depend on the in creasing tax delinquency of the gen- ral property tax. J. O. TURNER. WOULD PAVE AIRWAYS. Anywhere in Southern Calif., Some " " March, '34. Mr. Ben F. Swaggart, Oregon Horse and Mule Ranch, Uncle Jack Morrow County, Oregon. Dear Mr. Swaggart: Having read in the Heppner Ga zet advertising that you had horses and mules to sell or swap, and knowing for years that you raise the very best brands of those animals, am advising you not to sell or swap them off, but to put them to work, instead of having them stand ing around with their hands in their pockets. As you of course know, the lanes in the sky where our airships fly are bumpy, full of air-pockets, etc. This can be fixed, and the way to fix it is to pave the airways with good crushed rock, stuck together with liquified chewing gum. If I can secure the contract to do this paving, how many mules can you furnish to do the work, and what kind of a 50-50 proposition do you think would be fair? Of course we would have to take our pay in improvement bonds, which would be liens against the property on the ground that we passed over, and the usual graft of organizing improvement districts would have to be resorted to. In addition to the usual taxes, people have only been assessed specially for storm drains, lightning districts, etc., so that an air-paving special assessment would not need to cut much ice. Hoping that this proposition will strike you with the full force of a dozen brix, and also that you have a Merry Knsmas coming, etc., Very T. Y., J. W. REDINGTON. Also please figure on what price you can ship me ten carloads of snow from the Blue Mountains, f. o. b. at any point where rail and sail meet. I think that I may be able to sell it here to spread on the hiways two feet deep, to slow up the speed-devils, three of whom are born every minute. CARD OF THANKS.
