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.
