The pressure groups in rural Ore.
gon are too small to control the
election of a representative or
senator. That is not always true
of the city where many men are
chosen because of their adher
ence to certain groups and per
haps his promise to aid that
group.
What U. S. Senate Did for West
The western part of the United !
States could never have been de-!
veloped had it not been that each r
state has two senators to speak
for it. The dams and ports and ss
river improvements we have
would never have been built were
we not well represented In the I r
senate. We would still be a prov-1
ince, feeding our money back to s
the east without opportunity to
build for ourselves. There are as
many representatives from the
state of New York as we have in s
the eleven western states. We
would have no chance if the Uni-1 ss
ted States followed the strictly
proportional method advocated in s
the plan already filed in Oregon.
City Growth Depends on Rural j
The same is true for Oregon
which must have development in
rural areas if it is to keep grow
ing. The city can grow only as 2
rural Oregon grows. This Is not a EE
rurai-uroan problem; this Is a
problem for all Oregon. More po
tatoes from Klamath and Des
chutes, more wheat from Sher
man and Umatilla, more lumber
from Douglas and Coos, more
seed crops from Yamhill and Un.
ion, more fish from Clatsop are
the things that make Oregon
great and make Portland glow.
No one will build docks until
there is something to ship; no one
will start banks until there is
money to protect; no one builds
rail lines until there is something
to haul; nor manufacturing
plants until there is raw material
to process. Development must
come from rural areas where are
found the natural resources on
which we all live whether we are
inhabitants of the city or the
country.
Oregon with its 36 counties can
easily make her change now. The
senate chamber is large enough
for six more seats. It does not
have the vast number of counties
found in many other states. Ours
are comparatively large. The na
tional average is 990 square miles
and in Oregon the average is 2655
square miles.
Few people know how their
own state is apportioned as to
senators and representatives. Ev.
ery one who has gone to school
knows how this nation apportions
its congress. We can well decide
to follow the simpler and best
known system.
Because this is the American
method of apportionment, be
cause it recognizes the fact that
we need more than one method
of choosing our legislative dele
gates, because it will help stren
gthen local government, because
it will aid the development of the
state, because it will help' the city
grow, because it is the fairest
method devised for a democracy,
the apportionment plan giving
each county a senator should be
approved and adopted.
