Comment
on the
Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS.
THE NINTH measure on the state
ballot on election day continuing
this discussion, of which you may be
heartily weary by thla time Is ,the
bill that proposes to move the Uni
versity of Oregon from Eugene to
CorvaUls, the normal schools from
LaGrande, 'Ashland and Monmouth
to Eugene and the law school from
f Eugene to Salem.
Its purpose Is reasonably plain from
this statement. It backing, unfor
tunately, la not as plain as Its pur
pose, for thoss who furnished the
money for the petitions to get It onto
the ballot and for the campaign for
tt since that time, have refused per
sistently to mske themselves known.
Evidently they are not proud of It.
Vf-WE CLAIM la made that moving
1 the university to CorvaUls, the
normal schools to Eugene and the
'law school to Salem will save the
.rvr millions. To this writer. It
doesn't sound reasonable.
If you ever moved from one house
to another, you know that moving
costs a lot of money. It will cost the
' taxpayers of Oregon a lot of money
to put their Institutions of higher
education on wheels and move them
all over the atate.
i(H YES." you may say, "but we'll
J save a lot of money afte
et them all moved around."
But that argument doesn't seem to
hold water, for figures compiled and
published by the government Indicate
that cost of higher education per siu.
dent is HIGHER In states having
consolidated schools than In states
having separate schools.
If that Is true, we will LOSE money
Jnstead of saving It.
THE GOVERNMENT bulletin that
contains these figures offers an
interesting reason why higher educa
tion oosta more per student In states
having consolidated schools than In
those with separate schools.
The combined lobby, It says, la apt
to bluff the legislature whereas seps
rate lobbies are Inclined to offset each
other. That Is to say. when one scnooi
wants a new library, for example, the
ether Is Inclined to work against It,
It sounds reasonable. Aa a matter
of fact, we have seen It work out In
practice here in Oregon.
ANOTHER point of particular uv
terest to lis down here:
Southern Oregon has only ONE
stats institution the normal school
at Ashland. Just how we ever hap-
nened to get that nobody knows,
Probably It waa an accident.
At any rate, the school moving bill
will take It away from us.
THIS writer can see no merit In
the school moving bill, thinks it
would lead to endless confusion and
added expense believes personally that
It Is a real estate promotion scheme,
although admitting that there Is no
proof of that atatement which would
stand up In court, and expects to
vote AGAINST It.
rt-iHE TENTH measure on the ballot
1 Is known as the "tax and debt
control constitutional amendment.''
It Is merely an enabling act, permit
ting legislation to be passed providing
further limitation and control of the
power to levy taxes and Incur debt.
It la sponsored by the Oregon Tax
payers' Equalization and Conservation
league, and its purpose is laudable
enough. This writer is in sympathy
with its purpose, which is reduction
of taxation, and expect to vote tor
ltposslbly on the theory ot being
willing to try anything once.
B
UT let's not get the Idea that we
nd permanently simply by passing a
law. Here In Oregon, where we have
direct legislation, the people oan up
set by their votes any law which they
PASS by their votes. One process Is
aa simple and easy as the other.
If people WANT to apend money,
thus Increasing taxes, they will spend
It law or no law, limitation or no
limitation. If there la no law per
mitting It they will make one. If they
want to spend the mony. and If there
is a limitation FORBIDDING the
trending they will upset the limita
tion. (Continued on Pace Four)

Jackson county candidates and po
litical parties today prepared to fin
ish the local campaign In a blaze of
glory, with the maximum of verbal
fireworks, and the minimum of ca
nards and wild accusations such as
featured the final houra of the spring
primary. Public disapproval of sen
sationalism, and mud-sllnglng on a
rabid basis has stopped a recurrence
of the spring stream of character as
sassination. Practically all the candidates will
take to the air the coming week with
stump speeches In the cities Bnd
country. James W. Mott, candidate for
congress on the Republican ticket,
will hold forth at Ashland tonight in
a big rally; Porter J. Neff, E. E. Kelly,
and Frank DeSouza, local pemocrata,
will hold nightly meetings. O. E.
(Pop) Gates, independent candidate
for county Judge will make radio talks
thla week, and his rlvsla will do like
wise. Candidates Phlpps, Pipes, and
Fehl will also orate and shake hands.
District Attorney George A. Cod
ding will make a radio speech tomor
row night at 6: 30 o'clock for 15
minutes. The district attorney will
explain the truth about the "Dahack
case," and the grand Jury sessions In
which it was probed. He will answer
many ot the calumnies hurled against
him, and reveal that it became a
football of prejudicial politics.
The Committee of 7000. sponsoring
"write-In" campaign for the elec
tion of Sheriff Jennings will also take
to the air. and will circularize the
valley, with cards showing the voter
how to mBke hla "X."
For the first time In nearly IB
years the city campaign Is without
hullabaloo, and aerlous charges of
all descriptions. Both Dr. J. M.
Keene and E. M. Wilson, Incumbent,
are conducting 'rational campaigns."
Tl?8 same appllea to candidates for
city recorder and city treasurer. Voters'
on all classes rejoice at the lack 01
civic bitterness and turmoil.
Interest in the presidential race
continues strong, with hundreds of
Jackson county voters congregating
at radios to hear Hoover and Roose
velt speeches. The drift to the presl
dent continues strong throughout the
county.
8o far there has been little local
wagering on the election, but with
plenty of threats. The wise money Is
apparently waiting for the odds next
Monday before they "put up."

CANDIDATES TELL
FITNESS BEFORE
At one of the largest and most
elthuslastlc meetings ever staged by
the Medford Craters, thirty out of
the thirty-eight candidates appear
ing on the November ballot for coun
ty, city, and district offices outlined'
their platforms and alms at the Cra
ters eruption held in the basement
dining room of the Hotel Medford
last night. About ninety members
of the club and guest attended, in
addition to the thirty office-seekers.
The entertainment committee for
the meeting, under the direction of
R. R. Reter, had prepared a fine pro
gram, which Included a simulated
broadcast of the candidates' addresses
and each candidate waa allowed two
minute before the microphone. The
hoax was not revealed until late In

evident after it was revealed that
their carefully prepared addresses had
gone no further than the confines
of the dining room.
A short radio playlet was produced
by Lee Bishop, KM ED announcer,
who was in charge of the microphone
during the evening, which waa based
on political Issue in Jackson county,
and was well received by the crowd at
the meeting. K. M. O. Nelll, chief
big h'rn of the. Grants Pass Cavemen
was present at the meeting, and stat
ed that the Cavemen would accept
the Invitation of the Crater to a
Joint meeting to be held In this city.
The Invitation was extended over a
year ago. The Grants Pass represen
tative also sang a group of songs In
Scotch dialect, which were enthusi
astically applauded.
The first speaker to face the fake
microphone was James Mott, candi
date for representative In congress
from this district, and his address
waa mainly directed at a plea to all
voter to exercise their right of fran
chise at next Tuesday's election. He
was followed by the other candidates
in the following order: E. C. Kelly,
George Porter, Earl B. Day, George
Codding, W. M. Brlggs, M. O. WUklns,

that the value of a congreasman, so
far as his constituents were concerned,
depended upon his ability to function
as a law maker, and that unless he
could do this he was of little value
to his people.
I stated that before a candidate

most colossal rodeo of apple
sauce in the history of our
national pastime.

forced landing in the Andes, or
purposely stood straddle of the
equator another week if I had
known this.
