Why is the
BASIC
SCHOOL FUND
INCREASE
Necessary?
Rising costs and devalued dollars
upset the support plan you, the
Oregon voters, approved in 1946.
At that time it was intended that
school support be 50 state, 50
local. At present it is 31 state,
69 local. This measure will
simply help balance school sup
port as it was intended.

Vote against the measure that implies restric

The effect, therefore, would be complete

Oregon people would be unemployed!

Vote 314 X Yes
for Balanced Reapportionment
ere
LAililUiiliJ
mm
:?ed top cnzuro
r ' 1
This is a constitutional amend- I
ment that edves the voters a
voice in -reapportionment of the
Legislature.
Many plans were proposed and
this is the only one that had
enough support to be voted on.
It is a compromise between two
plans.
At present four large counties
have no one to represent them in
the legislature at all.
It is called the "balanced" plan
because it provides a balance be
tween representation by popula
tion and representation by area.
It balances between the classes
and the masses. It follows the
principle that more tnan one
means should be used to choose
representatives and senators.
That is the principle found in the
constitution of the United States
which established the first sue
cessful democracy.
This Dlan will make it imoos
sible for any part of the state or
for any group to dominate the
legislature. .
4
This plan gives each county ,at
least one representative, just as
the constitution of the United
States gives each state two sena
tors. The other representatives
will be divided on the basis of
population.
This plan provides for 36 sena.
tors which should help the leg
islature to do its work more
quickly.
No county shall have more
than a quarter of the senators
and representatives.
The annortionment is to be
done by the legislature in accord
ance with this amendment ana
by the secretary of state if tne
legislature fails which makes
certain that something will be
done.
Oregon will keep on growing
and to judge by the recent cen
sus will grow fastest in rural
ajeas where there are natural
resources to develop. The cutting
of timber, the building of dams
for electricity, the making of new
irrigation systems will cause Or
egon to grow still larger. This can
best be aided by providing ade
quate representation for the parts
of Oregon where the growth must
come.
The amendment is sponsored by
farm organizations including the
Oregon Farm Bureau Federation,
the Oregon Wheat Growers, many
Pomona granges and also by the
League of Oregon Cities, "and by
the Young Republicans and for
ward looking members of both
political parties.
It is a sound measure that has
the support of a majority of stu
dents of government of the state
who are not swayed by partisan
considerations.

"They're not the best-looking
boarders a man ever had," Hack
Turner said one day, "and they've
got awful tempers. Bnt I've found
it pays to have 'em around."
Hack was talking about a fam
ily of barn owls, nesting in his silo
this year. Some folks believe those
little white-faced screechers kill
chickens and ought to be shot on
sight. But Hack disagrees.
" Up at State University they've
studied barn owls for years and
never known one to eat a chicken.
On the other hand, a daddy owl
will clean up around 300 mice a
month. Farmers that kill barn
owls are throwing away the best
mousetraps known to man ! "
From where I sit, when someone
shows a prejudice against any
group of animals or humans it'i
usually just based on misunder.
standing. For instance, some folks
are plumb intolerant about those of
us who enjoy an occasional quiet
glass of beer. Get to really know us
and you're liable to find we're,
pretty good birds at that I

THE THRIFTY SQUIRREL PREPARES FOR WINTER
Most folks are wise who do the same thing. If the roof
leaks, they fix it; they also lay in their winter fuel. The
rancher harvests his crops and makes all necessary pre
parations to take care of his family and stock through
the long winter months. All wise people do these
things.
NOW WHAT DO YOU DO?
The Pioneer Service Company is offering a suggestion.
Don't overlook your credit rating with your local mer
chant, doctor and hospital. When you are making your
other preparations for winter, be sure that you don't
overlook your credit, as it is your greatest asset when
winter comes. Don't let yourslf be oversold on install
ment buying. Try to pay all your bills between the 1st
and the 10th of the month, and keep your credit good.
When you rceive one of our Pioneer Service County
Credit Board Statements, bearing our Registered Trade
mark, try to pay part, or satisfactorily arrange to pay
at once, on your past due accounts, so that you can get
credit that you may be forced to ask for.
REMEMBER REMEMBER
When you lose your cred- The wise ones prepare for
it you lose something you winter, so why not do as
may never regain. other thrifty folks do?
No commissions charged for collections. All money is
paid direct to creditors.
