It's Always Greener Over the Hill
The age-old expression, "it's always greener
on the other side of the hill" might well be applied
to the property investment situation in Heppner.
Places to invest our money that we earn at home
always have more appeal if where we do not see
them every day. Consequently we overlook some
good propositions right under our very noses.
Outside capital is seeking investment here.
Several pieces of Heppner business property have
passed to "foreign" control in recent weeks. One
might argue that these people have more money
than they know what to do with and if invested
in realty there is less income tax to pay. That may
have its part but when a piece of rental property
brings the owner 12 percent or better on his in
vestment it doesn't look like he is going to evade
income taxes. Rather it has the appearance of
being a smart investment.
This newspaper is not informed relative to lo
cal capital being invested "over the hill" but if
any of our capitalists are looking for smart in
vestments they should lower their sights and look
over the home territory.
.a
One of the rare occasions when the Gazette
Times is published on time is occurring this week.
It's too bad there isn't a newspapermen's confer-1
ence or something of the like each week to stim
shop, but on second thought such stimulation
ulate more concentrated effort about the little old
would become as ordinary as the weekly routine
of getting the paper out. We can't win.
Think Twice Before You Say It
Maybe the applicant who wears an honorable
dischire button doesn't know the details of every
business.
He d'dn't know the details of war, either. But
he did quite some job on a distasteful assignment.
And the Japs and Germans will testify that he had
something which proved more potent than their
experience.
You and we can't hire evrey discharged
veteran who comes to us. But we can all well af
ford to devote some time and thought to his indi
vidual problem instead of just saying, "not enough
experience."
He doesn't care for that "not enough experi
ence" brush-off and neither will any of us if we
stop to think. Keinember, the time he might have
spent gaining experience has been devoted to pro
tecting our right to be in business.
