Highest yesterday 61 Lowest tbls morning 44 T Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS. A REDUCTION of more than one third In automobile license fees, Chairman Scott aaya. would upset Oregon's whole state highway system. A flat 5 fee, which many people are advocating, would end all new construction, would lose to Oregon her share of the federal aid funda and would carry the threat of throwing back onto property a part of the bur den of paying off the state highway bonds. Fine highway systems, you see, Just CAN'T be built and maintained wlth , out a certain amount of money. BEFORE license 'tees are slashed sharply, thus endangering the whole highway structure, thla writer would like to see Oregon try the ex- pedlent of Installment paymenta for ' licenses. There la much protest over high license fees, and Indeed they are bur densome, for they have to be paid ALL IN ONE LUMP, and that does come hard In times when money Is none too plentiful. A reasonably almple system of quar terly paymenta would make licenses a lot easier to buy. INCIDENTALLY, the present state highway commission, composed of Leslie Scott, Carl Washburne and Ed Aldrlch, Is entitled to more credit than It la getting for the good work It has done. These men have taken a state high way system that was geared for boom production, more or less regardless of cost, and have trimmed It down and adapted It to the pressing prob lems of the lean years of depression If you have ever tackled a Job of that L eort, you know It Isn't easy. They have done a fine Job and are getting an amazing mileage of high ways for the money they are spending ANOTHER burning Issue, in Oregon and elsewhere, Is Indicated by the following paragraph In the political newe of the day: "Unfortunately, there are not enougb federal positions to sstlsfy the demands of Oregon Democrats, and It should be remembered that Oregon la only one of 48 states." THE rational administration, you 1 see, hss changed, the Republicans, who have been In power for a long, long time, having been thrown out on their ears, and the Democrats having been given the reins of vx- thorlty and while to you and me and the rest of the common herd this may mean only the hope that a change will be a good thing for the country, to the POLITICIANS, big and Mlttle. It means something else en tirely. To them It meana JOBS, and Joba, for himself and for his followers, are what the politician lives for. I TP AT THE TQP there are the big J jobs, such aa cabinet positions and ambassadorships. Along In the middle are the middle sized Jobs, like postmastershlps and collectors of Internal revenue. And away down at the bottom are the little Jobs, for the hewera of wood and the carriers of water. And on all of these Jobs, big and little, hundreds of thousands of eager and hungry eyea are fixed. A lot of . hearts are going plt-a-pat at the pros pects. AND don't think that the giving out of these Joba Is going to be all happiness and satisfaction. There will be msny heart-burnings by the time the distribution Is all made many faithful henchmen who will be SURE they have been done dirt. There's plenty of grief, even In the giving out of political Jobs. TURNING from' politics and Joba. which are among the big things In political years, to the lesser things of life, we learn from the papera that a Los Angelea man la suing his wife for a divorce because she WOULDN'T serve him spinach every day of the week. Will somebody plesae page the Joke smiths end when they appear In re sponse to the paging, hand them Isrge rszzberry? For somebody has put castor oil In their coffee. According to the Jokesmlths EVERY MAN Is supposed to LOATHE spinach. Yet here la one who la kicking up a frightful disturbance because he can't get It every day.

Y BEFORE KIWANIS 'Operation of the county commis sary, established for the relief of the unemployed, waa explained today noon by Victor Tengwald, secretary to the county court, at the noon luncheon of the Klwanls club to clear up the mlsunderstsndlng reported about the country regarding the commissary and methods of food dis tribution observed there. "In the first place," ho pointed out In answer to claims of prices charged and collected on the prod ucts, "the commissary la operated as a medium of exchange for labor and no money la paid for product ob tained there." If some of the prices, as has been claimed, are higher than those charged In stores of the city, Mr. Tengwald pointed out, It la because an unfair comparison haa been made. Local merchanta, he explained, from day to day present leadera on spe cials, upon which a lower price la charged. The next day thla aame product may be back at ita original selling price. In the oommlasary a price haa been established In keep ing with the average price oharged by stores throughout the county for their products. In order to arrive at a fair medium for the exchange of products in re turn for labor, It la necessary that the commissary maintain a cerain price which la not changed from day to day In accordance with store cus toms. Mr. Tengwald also explained to the Klwaniana that persona with money to pay for their groceries do not ob tain producta at the county commis sary, and that those who have ob tained relief work are only supplied by the commissary until they can get their 'warranta cashed, ct which time they are free to buy wherever they choose. Those w&o receive warrants In con alderatlon of their services are fre quently given requisitions on the commissary before the work la as signed and before they receive their money. When thla Is the esse the amount la deducted from their first warrants, Mr. Tengwald explained, and placed back In the commissary fund In order to create a revolving fund for replenishing the commis sary on a basis of exchange for labor. Most of the men going out on re lief Jobs are absolutely without funds snd must be provlled with food un til their first warranta com In. It is therefore necessary to grant them requisitions, Mr. Tengwald stated. WHEAT KING TITLE CHICAGO, Nov. 28.
