More people mean a more general and pervading prosperity. More prosperity means the best and probably the only solution of the tax problem. ' If the people of Oregon wish to be more prosperous1, then" obviously I lie people, of Oregon must do something to encourage outside capita to invest in this state. . Hut capital is canny. It is also sensitive. It not only goes where lilo opportunities look best, but tho risks appear least. ' ' Therefore to pass ah income tax at this time will mean to again tic .a millstone about Oregon's economic neck, and again turn over the cream of settlement und development to California and Wash ington. " ,' ' ...... Sorno good pcoplo in Oregon seem to doubt the truth of this state ment. But no (ine in California or Washington doubts it. Nothing ill please the. boosters of Los Angeles and .Seattle more than to have the Oregon ineonie tax sustained next Tuesday. Listen to what the Tacomit News Tribune said regarding Oregon's proposed tax i . If Oregon enacts this lnw, a golden opportunity. Is provided for tho state of Washington, even though wo are loath to tiUto udvnntngc of tho folly and mlsfortuno of a neighbor; An income tax law will put Oregon In the same class as North Dakota and will mako outside capital gun shy when It comes to Investing In her Industries. If Washington maintains Its polsb nmld tho flood of soml-Boclallstlc 1 and dcstructlvo legislation that Is now proposed and rejects tho lncomo tax measure. It will share with Southern California tho Influx of capi tal to tho coast. Lot It Join Oregon In such a law and the Pacific North west automatically will sign an industrial suicide pact. ' As a samplo of how this income tax talk affects Eastern capital In cidents may bo cited regarding u well-known Tacoma concern. This company had mndo plans to double Its capacity this ycur, adding many more employes to Its staff when Eastern investors, who wero to fi nance tho improvement, learned of tho proposed Income tax law they promptly withdrew their capital and took it to more favored fields. Tacoma will lose a scoro or more of families which It would havo ' hud If the proposed addition hnd been inado. And hero is an opinion from the Helena (Montana) Independent: About tho tfmo the legislature of Oregon gnvo Us approvnl to an lncomo tax bill, tho legislature of Washington at Olympla killed a slm- liar measure. Our own lawmakers at Helena hnd turned down an ln como tax measuro known ns ono of tho governor's bills; thus tho pooplo of Washington ami Montana escape a burden that shortly Is to bo Inflicted upon tho residents of Oregon, The Spokesman-Review hut remarked that wlieu Oregon's farmers have had experience with the income tax and seen its workings as applied to themselves and its adverse effects on the development of their state, the law will lose its transitory popularity. But the Helena daily adds that "by that time it will bo firmly established and a tax tmeo applied is hard to get rid of tho Oregon commissions and bit-1 roans and boards anil officials will need it and will fiiid a way to keep it on the statute books." ' I '-. An income tax is a fair tax, theoretically. If California and Vashiiigton had such a tax, or if the three states had agreed to adopt a similar income tax, there wouhl be little objection to voting for such a measure, if fairly and properly drawn. ' v But for an undeveloped, capital-hungry state liko Oregon to adopt an income tax beforo any other state on the coast, is simply business folly. An income tax under such circumstances is not a fair tax at all. It is absolutely, unfair for it places another burden on tho one coast state which can least afford to bear it. ; Tho best way to reduce the tax burden for tho farmer, as well as for the business man, is not to vote another tax, but to stimulate de velopment 'of our resources and increase our payrolls, so that taxes automatically cease to be a burden. ' ' ",' Taxes arc high in southern California, ,but you hear no complaints from tho tax payers of Los Angeles. The reason is Los Angeles is prosperous. Oct in moro capital for investment and tho tax problem takes care of itself. Tho way NOT to get in more capital, is to vote a special tax againrft it.

Why do they do it? A reader - inquires whether tho bright white light of a gasoline lamp Injurious to tho eyes. Such light is no moro nor less Injurious than the flame amount of light from any other Kiiiu 01 lamp, in some ensos it may bo that a yollowish light, such as that from a kerosene lamp Is moro. com fortable to reod or work under, but if so, the gasollno lamp may be provided with a g'obo or shade which will give tho desired softening. Try reading with direct sunlight on tho page, and you will soon know that n.n excessive amount of licht Is undesirable. In artificial illumination tho amount of light must bo deter mined by individual preference and tho nature of the work. For renrtlnir tho Important thing Is tho position of tho light In relation to tho page and mo render's eyes. Tho light should fall upon the page from nbovo tho level of the reader's eyes ond from a point behind tho fieli of vision. That Is, the souroe of light Itself should bo Invisible to the reader when the head is in reading position. This applies in doing any kind of fine work by ar tificial light. If the lamp itself Is within the field of vision as tho worker sits or stnnds at work, obvi ously tho eyes aro subjected to the strain of glnro. Under such condi tions, a feeblo or dim light is less in jurious than a bright light. Opal on frosted globes or shades are always preferable to' cloar glass when the lanips aro vistblo (direct Illumination), bocauso thoy diffuse and softon tho. light and prevent the glare from tho naked flamo or incan descent filament. Tho popular fancy that green is protective to the eye has no foundation; green is no bettor thun I brown, gray, blue or yellow for pro tecting tho cyo from glnro. In all Illumination indoors, natural or artificial, thoilmpoitant point Is to havo tho fiouiTo of light above and be hind your eyos, or if it bo a window at least havo It at your side, not in front of you.
