and without any preliminaries said
'Shake hands with America king!'

We havo made these figures very conservative. ,
In addition to this there should he added an annual interest charge
of 5 per cent on nt least $50,000.00 invested in unfinished part oi
building, $3000.00. Annual cost of keeping willows cut and cleared
Jfnlong creek, $200.00. ' '
Should it be found necessary to construct septic sewer tanksas
was done at the old Page theater, that would be another big expense.
And last, but not least,. a foundation for nil contemplated buildings
to bedrock or solid formation (nothing else should be countenanced)
might easily cost much more than nil the land.
Why does our school board and their discredited ally, Mr. Steward,
insist that we must pay enormous prices for our school buildings?

today visited the sports ground here
and spent an hour inspecting volun
teers from, the various services while
3000 children, many of them descend
ed from the first Hritlsh settlers who
landed in 1820, cheered incessantly.
Airplanes circled less than 100 feet
overhead as the prince, in the uni
form of a colonel of the Welch volun
teers, moved slowly from group to
group, shaking hands and chatting.
So eager were the hordes of native
spectators to get a view of the prince
that they closed in around him, fight
ing, struggling and attempting, to
crovd nearer. Two policemen in
stantly leaped to the side of the
prince and saved him from annoy
ance. Newspaper correspondents
were less fortunate and were wedged
in the jam for several minutes before
they could force their way out.

In their desperate appeal to get the people to sign the referendum
petitions on the Truck and Bus Bill some of the circulators in the
City of Portland and throughout the state are telling the public that
the bill increasing license fees charged For-Hire Trucks and Busses
is intended to drive trucks and busses off the paved highways. Other
petition circulators are telling the people that the bill is only aimed
at busses and not at trucks. Neither of these statements is true.
There was no intention on the part of the legislature to drive trucks
and busses off the roads, but the legislature did intend in passing the
law to require these enormously heavy For-Hire Trucks and Busses
to contribute more money in license fees to be used in repairing the
terrible damage that they are doing to our fine roads all over the
state every day.
Don't be misled into signing these petitions by fairy stories told
you by circulators of these petitions. There is no desire on the part
of anybody to drive trucks and busses off the roads, but everybody
feels that these ten-ton to twenty-ton trucks and busses that are
running on the roads for hire ought to contribute in license taxes
more than they do toward repairing the damage they are doing to
our. paved roads. The total amount of license paid per year by all
the trucks and busses operating in Oregon will not repair ten per cent
of the damage they are doing to the roads.
Don't sign these referendum petitions and tell your neighbors not
to do so.
