CLOSE OF ROGUE
The following communication from
Wm. E. Bean, president of the Gold
Beach chamber of commerce, to the
Oregon Journal would show a change
In attitude of business men of the
seaside town toward closing the
Rogue river to commercial fishing:
"Gold Beach, Oct. 37. To the Edi
tor of the Journal Gold Beach bus
iness men. for years leaders In the
movement to keep the Rogue river
open to commercial fishermen, are
ready to vote and campaign for a
closed river. Two years ago every
business man but one signed the
petition for an open river. Now all
but one or two of that same group
are In favor of a closed river. We
figure that every fish caught In the
Rogue by sportsmen Is worth $10 to
Gold Beach. This year, with can
neries paying only a cent and a halt
a pound for fish, many of the com
mercial fishermen didn't make a liv
ing. Figures given out by the can
nery show the average fisherman
made only $32.20 a month. And of
the 114 men on the river this year
during the commercial fishing sea
son only 34 were Gold Beach fisher
men. By closing the Rogue to com
mercial fishing. Gold Beach hopes to
win the year-round reputation as a
fishermen's paradise.
"WILLIAM E. BEAN,
"President, Gold Beach Chamber of
Commerce .'
Fruit Growers
Have Interest
In Truck
Bill
According to Eads Brothers, of Eads
Transfer company, passing of the
freight truck and bus bill would
mean higher cost to the fruit grow
ers for moving their fruit. The
Rogue River Traffic assocaltlon and
the Fruitgrowers' league realize this
and have gone on record as opposing
this drastlo bill.
Mr. Eads also states It la his opin
ion that "If the selfish Interests back
of this bill succeed In passing It,
there Is no doubt that further legis
lation will follow similar to that be
fore the Alabama legislature at the
present time. The Alabama bill af
fixes a tax on the private truck
amounting to 6 cents a mile on
five-ton pay load. Any truck would
be unable to operate under such high
tax, consequently If the bill passes.
the purpose of the bill will be ac
complished and freight will be re
turned to the selfish Interests at the
cost of the taxpayer.
"Statements have been made that
this bill will not Interfere with the
operation of the logging trucks,
said Mr. Eads. "Anyone that has
read that 6000-word bill knows bet
ter, as logging trucks operate In
class seven and this bill is aimed at
this class more than any other."
For the good of the community
this bill should be defeated, accord
Jng to Mr. Eads.

Buron Fltts
clearly presented will miss a treat if
they do not attend the meeting. . It
will close the campaign for the Re
publicans In this county except radio
talks on Monday night.
Mr. Fltts has not only proven his
ability as a prosecutor In the Asa
Kcyea and Almee Semple McPherson
and other criminal cases, but some
idea of his popularity Is shown by
the primary election in California.
The law there is If a man receives
a majority of the total vote cast in
the primary he is elected and doea
not have to run In the general elec
tion. At the primary recently he
received a majority on the Republic
an ticket over his competitors and
therefore won the election.
In an Interview at Portland yester
day, Mr. Fltts said In answer to the
question, "Will Hiram Johnson psck
the Republicans of California Into the
Roosevelt camp with him?"
"N-o. s-l-rl"
"I honestly feel that California
will go for Herbert Hoover. I think
the people' of California realize they
have a lot to be thankful for In hav
ing Hoover as president In this crl
sIb," he continued.
"These so-called Republican sena
tors who are whooping for Roose
velt now are not changing any votes
worth while. Their present followers
are simply people who have long
been out of the Republican party.
Johnson, who was once very popular
down our way, won't change 1000
votes In the state. We know him too
well. And we'll take care of Mr.
Hiram two years from now."
The meeting Friday evening will
be In charge of the Vetercus' Repub
lican club, Mr. Fitts being a disabled
war veteran, who saw service overseas.

Farmers of Oregon"
Private Truck Owners!
The Freight Truck and Bus Bill DOES NOT INCRIAM BY
ONE CENT the license fees of 20,000 farmer-owned and
other privately. owned trucks. It DOES NOT restrict or
' Interfere with the operation of such trucks.
' . It will eliminate the big trailer, cut load weights to IT
tons, lengths to 40 feet. It affects the operation of for.
hire trucks which are conducting business for profit on
the highways and which use and damage our highways
without adequate payment and with little regard for the
safety of the traveling public or the working hours and
conditions of labor of truck drivers.
LOWE R The Farm Truck Owners Association of Marion County
License believes that license fees on Farm TrucJc and Private
Fees... Trucks should be reduced and can be reduced by this BlQ
without danger to Oregon highway construction.
The association has no Interest in the railroads It holds
no brief for the BIO PORTLAND TRUCKING OUTFITS that
use the highways perhaps more than all the farm trucks
- and private trucks in the state put together.
Motor transportation matters In Oregon are la a mess.
The association stands for scientific investigation of
all truck fees and pleads for sound regulation in the In
terest of thb state and its people.

The Freight Truck and Bus Bill provides for an invest!,
