Strength in the railroad shares failed
to bolster the rest of the list In to
day stock market. Many Industrials.
THB chief justification for this
THIRD highway to the northern
beaches, paralleling the two fine ex
Isttng highways, which provide much
more than adequately for all the
beach traffic that exists, seems to be
that Portland, which furnishes the
bulk of the highway money, hasn'
had its full share of money spent on
roads In Its Immediate vicinity,
That is true. But Portland, as Ore
gon's only metropolitan city, Ore'
gon's only reel jobbing city, Oregon's
only real manufacturing and distrib
uting olty, the center of Oregon's
finance, has reaped its full measure
of benefit from the building of roads
that have tapped every section of
Oregon and have mads It easy to get
from any section of Oregon TO PORT
LAND.
PORTLAND, In this writer's judg
meni, will reap infinitely more
benefit from a program of widening
and straightening Oregon's great
highways, which carry the bulk of
the year-round business and tourlat
traffic, and so REALLY BUILD all of
Oregon, Including Portland. Oregon's
Chief city, than from the building of
A THIRD highway from Portland to
the beaches, parallsltng, or practical
ly so, the two tine psved highways
that already exist.

TOLD TAX BURDEN
VOTED BY PEOPLE
Joining the state wide movement
fat retrenchment and reduction of
taxes, the Bellvlew Orsnge held an
open meeting laat night and solicited
the opinions and Information of J,
B. Coleman, county assessor, and At
torneys Frank Newman and T. J.
Enrlght regarding county taxes and
the county Healthh Unit.
More than 150 Grangers and other
Interested persons attended the ses
sion. Sometime ago the Bellvlew
Grange passed a resolution asking for
removal of the health department
and other county offices. Their ac
tion waa followed by contrary resolu
tlons on the part of about 10
Oranges of the county and the meet
ing laat night was apparently called
to make further Investigation of the
situation.
Attorney Newman presented reft
ords of the health unit, which show
the valuable service it has given the
county. Approaching the question
from both angles he also told the
farmers If they do not consider this
service worth the price they are pay
ing for It they should dispense wlto
biio department, or in case tney ieei
that someone else could perform
better service they should ask for
another staff.
No action was taken regarding the
original resolution of the Grange.
Attorney Enrlght, who represented
Mrs. Lyda King, ox-county nurse, In
her case against Dr. B, 0. Wilson of
the health department, described the
hearing to the Grangers.
Assessor Coleman, who presented
the county tax budget, gave the
Grangers a short history of the orlgl
nation of taxes, showing that they
have been voted by the people, w,ho
If they want lower taxes must abide
by a retrenchment program. They
have demanded better roads, better
scnoois ana oilier xaciutiee and
long as they have them, he pointed
out,, must pay for them.
Plans for the new county court
house to be constructed were also
discussed and many questions asked
as to the number of rooms to be in
cluded and the department to be
housed In each room. There was no
one present with a copy of the plans
so most of the Grangers' questions
went unanswered.

Bored Parents
(By Alice Judson Feale)
Two girls whose home apparently
offers them everything they could
desire are restless bored and hua-
nappy.
With a delightful house where
their friends are always welcome,
with a roadster at their disposal, with
plenty of pleasant young people to
play with, they alternate periods of
feverish social activity .with tiroes of
Inertia when nothing seems worth
doing.'
Except when the radio is playing
and the living room full of their
friends, they cannot bear to stay
home, unless It be to sleep till noon.
Since both children are gifted and
Intelligent, such purposeless, unsat
isfying living argues the absence of
a dynamic Ideal In their elders.
In this Instance the father Is so
much away from home that he does
not count tn Its life.
The mother falls to furnish the
necessary pattern for emulation. She,
too, la restless, now busy with pur
poseless activity, now for long periods
beset with a sense of futility.
A modern and efficient housekeep
er, she has long empty afternoons
when the rounds of bridge and shop
ping and tea have been exhausted,
and when a novel and a box of choco
lates are hardly enough to stand be
tween her and a sense of emptlncM.
We parents owe It to our chtldron
to find a sustaining interest which
will give significance to dally living.
Where the demands of money and
home-making are not so great that
they occupy all of our time, our u
of leisure should be such as to give
our children a feeling that the world
Is full of unexplored Interests and
poMlbllttlen for enjoyment.
We need hobbles and avocations
and the wholesome state of mind
they engender If we are to furnish
our children with the Impetus to go
ahead toward worthwhile goals.

BLIND FLYING AT
VIEWED BY LIONS
Ao exhibition of "blind" flying
waa given today at the local alrpott
by Russell Cunningham, general sup
erintendent of the Pacific Air Trans
port, and Frank Anderllne, pilot, for
the entertainment of the Lions club,
which had lunobeon In the hangar
building.
Closed In by a hood, which shuts
out all the outside world Anderllne
took the plane over the valley, pilot
ing It through instruction of Instru
ments alone, after It left the runway.
The radio used for communication
with the ground -la also used as a
means of receiving reports from the
Instructor under the new system.
Each time the plane swooped low
ovsr the field the brsve Lions edged
toward cover and none of them re
quested a life in the "blind" flying
expedition..
Mr. Cunningham Is going over the
Paclflo Air Transport system giving
"blind" flying lessons.
Marc Jarmln was program chairman
for today, and voiced the club's ap
preciation of the hospitality extended
the members by Phil Sharp and other
members of the airport staff. The
only complaint voiced by the club
was against the volunteer waiter, who
Invaded the kitchen and ran off with
