Don't Forget To Vote!
This is !ho last opportunity to say anything
relative to the sewer fund election and the first
point to bring out is the necessity for securing a
general expression from the people on the ques
tion of whether or not Heppner should have a '
sewer system. If the measure to be voted upon
carries, it should be by a majority of the people
and not by a minority decision. If the vote should
be close, at least the council will have the assur
ance that a majority of the people favor the pro
ject. The other major point is that a sewer system
is badly reeded. The ground over the town is be
coming saturated and there should be a means
for carrying away this runoff without depositing
it in the creek.
The state board of health has been waiting
for Heppner to make a start on proper sewage
disposal and this is an opportunity for the people
of Heppner to give the assurance that this com
munity is awake to its responsibility.
Passage of the measure may or may not mean
early construction of the project. It will encour
age the council to go ahead with plans and with
in a few years it will be possible to start actual
construction.
The answer is in the hands of the voters the
taxpayers.
Suppose This Happened
It is commonly believed that the whole respon
sibility for getting rid of unnecessary govern
ment expenditures falls upon Congress and the
Administration. But a third power must bear its
full share of the responsibility too and that pow
er is the American people who, incidentally, pay
all the bills.
Suppose, for instance, that chambers of com
merce, civic groups, business associations, labor
unions and other such institutions in every part
of the country came out for real economy and
said, frankly and flatly, that they wanted their
states and communities to willingly accept their
part of the cuts that would follow. And suppose,
finally, that when the cuts were made, these or
ganizations would praise congress for making
them instead of crying to high heaven for more
federal tax money to be spent locally. The result
would be to enormously encourage those men in
governmept who honestly want to pinch the peo
ple's pennies and, at the same time, it would
bring many new converts into the fold.
For good or evil, the men who run the gov
ernment keep their ears to the ground. They lis
ten to "the folks back home." Once they become
convinced that their constituents want the gov
ernment to banish the luxuries and the waste,
they'll do just that. They'll never do it so long as
they believe that everyone wants economy to be
confined to the other fellow's pasture.
Whv Not Trv Tested Recipe?
Governmental efforts to stop inflation appear
to be headed for a boomerang. Reaction has al
ready set in in the lumber industry and there are
signs that other businesses will feel a slackening
in turnover unless the bureaucrats see the light
of day and reverse themselves on some of their
directives.
A noticeable cut in home building has oc
curred following the order establishing 25 per cent
as the minimum down payment. The larger part
of new home construction in the past few years
has been done by the lower income classes, many
of whom could not have enjoyed the pride of hav
ing their own homes but for the fact that small
down payment, plans were available to them. As
a result of this order there has been a 30 percent
drop in the lumber market, a condition that is
causing some alarm among lumbermen.
There has been too much tampering with our
economy by the over-staffed bureaus and the re
sults have been such that even the blindest par
tisans are beginning to doubt the wisdom of bu
reaucrats in general. They could spend their time
to much better advantage studying the only prac
tical and safe rule for business and industry, the
tried and true principle of supply and demand
