C. Barnes sales tax with shelter value offset, toe chance of a life time. There is strong organized opposition to an unmodified sales tax. The state grange is opposed to it, so is organized labor. As the situation exists however, tha only alternative to some form of sales tax is an increase in the property tax. SucL an increase with tax delinquency now a critical problem, would be hazardous in the extreme. It might lead to a widespread tax strike, which in turn would threaten state bankruptcy. If a deadlock should be reached on an unmodified sales tax, which at this writing appears probable, the Barnes plan then would represent a workable compromise. And this much is certain, the final solution of Oregon's desperate financial problem, will have to represent a compro mise. " This is no time for pride of opinion, or a spirit of intolerance to prevail. The issue is the welfare of this state, and its finan cial survival. 'T'lIE state grange and organized labor oppose a sales tax be- cause it places too great a burden upon those of moderate means. They want the major burden placed upon incomes. This is a perfectly sound stand under normal conditions. But present conditions are not normal. The truth is incomes have been deflated just as prices and wages have been deflated. The income tax, ao a revenue producer has failed, because it has struck the 'snag of diminishing returns. You can't get blood from a turnip. With many incomes gone, and others steadily declining, with capital writing off losses every 'day, the income tax can't assume more of the tax load, than it already has as sumed. So the sales tax is the only hope for salvation, at the present time. This is the only revenue source that has not been tapped. If an unmodified sales tax CAN'T be passed, then as we see it, a modified sales tax MUST be. . "No Place Like Home" IN 1929 the lumber men of Warren, Ohio, bulit a demonstration house and equipped it throughout for a cost of $7,245. A citizen of the community bought it and moved in, making it a home. Today the value of the house has shrunk to probably half of its original value and the man who bought it has taken a loss. It is still a beautiful home however. His family lives in it. No one can put him out in the cold. The home is his castle and even though its value, as measured by the gold standard, is down-its value as measured by every human standard is still up. , . ' If this man had turned away from the desire to own a home and had put his money into the shares of the 14 leading Ameri can stocks on the day he bought his homo back there on August 24, 1929, he oould have purchased three shares each of these stocks such Btooks as U. S. Steel, Standard Oil, and a dozen others of the top notchers. 1 Those stocks, costing him $7,245 on the day he bought them in August 1929, would now be worth $1,008 a shrinkage of 86 per cent. '' Measured by business standards the man who bought the home wins. As a matter of fact the man who owns a home always wins, even though taxes be high and the burdens of home ownership seem out of proportion. It iB the man who owns a home who can live with the least worry, in these days of unemployment because a few days work each month will hold his possessions together. The man who has no work and no home is the wan derer on the face of the earth. The old boy who said "there's no place like home" knew what he was talking about I Parsons (Kansas) Sun, .- Communications Doubts Home Loan Beneflte. -To the Editor: . n-f-rritia. t vaiiv ItiindaT editorial on borne loan banks, I think quite a number of people in this vslley would be Interested to get an answer, let us say, to the following question: A has to repay a mortgage of 11000 on April 1. lsa. How has ha to pro- .a M ,1.1b mniu, t.hmnoh a federal home bank loa In order to repay the mortgage becoming auer I have tha home loan bank act be fore me and I find tha following: 1 Tha loans should be made only In extreme oases through tha federal tMn kunVa 1 1 -m wflVfll. The? should t made through existing building and loan companies. No hutitiino: and loan company can get a loan unless It charges an Interest rate not exceeding mo . int.-.) Mtji of the state which IS S per cent In Oregon. This makes It impossible for any local uuiioms and loan companies to get any loan v- fr!ri hank, unless they change their aet-up, as tha Interest rate charged oy sne local cump-u. u mM hioher and In some esses smounts to lfi per oent. The local outiaing ana panles. In order to get a loan In turn from the federal bank, must deposit ss security for every 11000, first clsss mortgages to the amount of S1SO0. Ti.t. n. nm nt Minta. that tha local building and loan companies have to find practically one-nan oi nw, uim.., themselves sad If they cannot find It now at a higher rata of Interest. It Is doubtful, if tney win una a lower rate of Interest, a vtntllv rhe federal home loan bank must sell bonds to the same amount as they advance to tne ouim Ing and loan oompanlea, In order to make the loans. Perhaps someone can give the ans wer to above questions. It seems to me wa ere moving In a circle. If somebody haa the money to loan, he can Just as well put It directly at disposal of a building and loan com pany and get a higher raw of Interest and will navs practically ino same ha hM when buvlns the bonds, sven If these bonds wouid be federal government honfle, wnicn a urderstsnd. they era not.

Wa Issue simply some more bonds against this property under the name federal home loan bank bonds and dilute our very extensive government bonds some mora, thus reducing their Intrlnslo vslus. I understand Senator Borah Is al ready working on a repeal of the federal home land bank act. GEO. SCHUMACHER. Medford. Dec. 13. - Sd Note: ' Our correspondent Is In error regarding tha legal MAXIMUM rata of Intereat In Oregon. It Is not 8 per cent, but 10 per cent. However, the entire home loan act la doelgned to help the home owner and to render an exorbitant Interest charge Impossible. Sec. 8 of the aot reads, In part, as follows: k "No Institution shall be admitted or retained In membership If the com bined totals of amounts paid to It for Interest, commission, bonus, dis count premium and other etmllar charges crestes an actual net coat to ths home owner In excess of the maxi mum legal rate, or In ease there Is no legal rate. In excess of S per cent In the state where such property Is lo cated." While nothing definite can be known until the state enabling act is passed, local authorities declare It probsble that the home owner will be guaranteed a maximum Interest charge tn Oregon of approximately S per oent. As a further protection to the home owner, where local asso ciations or savings hanks do not allow a reasonable interest charge, individ uals era urged by tha set to form an association of their own. As before atsted. tt Is tip to the legislature to frame a law that will not only allow the home owners of Oreewn to take advantage of thla federal home loan act. but to do ao at the lowest rate of Interest consistent with financial con ditions prevailing In thla state at the present time. o Special Dance At Eagles Dance "All American Olrl" will be the title of tha dance novelty to be pre sented by Mia Ruth Marie Ltiy'a school as a special f future at the Ea;!a' benefit dance Wednesday, eve ning at Dreamland dance hall, ac cording to announcement this noon by Jack Huealon. chairman of the I committee In charge.

Come, come, let us be fair and frank, in the gmat majority of let ters I have had from boys and girls who seek only the truth about these hidden and forbidden things, only the knowledge to which they are en titled, parents come In for some well merited and bitter condemnation.

I have always bellewd that clothes washed and dried In the air and aun arid Ironed are as sanitary as clothce washed In the public laundry. But according to this statement my belief Is not warranted . . . Mrs. A. R. Answer Personally I'd prefer to take my chances with clothes laun dered at home as you describe. On the face of It, the appeal that some anonymous "bacteriologist- has auth orized the laundry to put a "health tag" on every bundle of clothes la ab surd. Ordinary soap and hot water la ample disinfection for clothing, no matter how contaminated. The use of chlorln and deodorising. In the public laundry or In the home laun dry la an additional disinfection. Ironing, of course , kills any germs there may be on the clothes. Grape Juice. I made sorrw grape Juice, which tastes all right but whenever I take any quantity of It I seem to get sick. . 3. P. Answer If the grape Juice haa not fermented it should be a wholesome, healthful beverage. If It has fer mented you had better beware of It.

P. BET IN REALIGNMENT McNary Forging Steadily Ahead in Past Few Years. Now to Fore As Old Guard Pillars Are Voted Out By HERBERT PLUMMER. WASHINGTON With the passing from the senate of those four mighty pillars of tha old guard Republicans Smoot of Utah. Vateon of Indi ana, Moses of New Ham pa hire and Jones of Washing ton Charlea L. McNary of Ore gon locks more and more to many obaervera like the O. O. P."s best bet. The dapper, blond senator from Ore- ?on baa been forging q u 1 e tly, s t e a d 1 ly ahead during the past CHAftica r-i'NARv few years. Jim Wataon, the Republican leader, haa left much of tha detail of running tha Republican organization In the senate to him. As assistant floor leader, McNary has built up a reputation as one of the few senators who can really tell what the senate thinks. And his abil ity to guess what his colleagues will do on a showdown la uncannv. Unless all signs 'fall, he probably will be the man called on to hold In tact the battered lines of his party In the forthcoming new senate. He's Independent. Independent In thought, sometimes to the point of going along with his progressive colleagues, he seldom goes all the way. He la known on both sides of the alslea as a man who uti lizes a lot of common sense as he goes about his Job. You can consult with Charlie Mc Nary, they say, but you can's com mand him. Tall, Blender and soft-spoken, he rarely gets ruffled on the senate floor. His face takes on a pink glow when he gets animated or engages In heated debate. But he haa the knack of saytng a few biting words to a col league without angering him or mak ing a particularly eabstlnate senator feel uncomfortable. He Is popular on both aides of the aisle, largely because be la accommo dating. Doesn't Get Panicky, McNary seems to always know what la going on around the senate. Others may get panicky, rush to the white house or confer anxiously In tbe cloakrooms, but not McTary. And after everything has become quiet It generally develops that he knew about It all the time afid had better Judgment about what to do than some of the so-called "big shots.' He may not be promoted to Jim Watson's place aa leader of hie party In the senate In tha 73rd congress. but there can be no doubt that he wlij have a lot to say about Republican policies pursued In that branch.

The Importance of operation of the Owen-Oregon Sales company to the progress of the Rogue Rhrer valley was shown today noon In an address made by Bernard Nutting of the Owen-Oregon company at the lunch eon of the Kiwanla club at the Hotel Medford. Since operation of the company started under the new program launched last June, over eight mil lion feet of logs will have been cut when those now In the pond have been cared for, Mr. Nutting stated. This will represent nine million feet of lumber and out of every 1000 feet of lumber cut 60 per cent of the money realized goes Into local labor. Out of every dollar made by the company during this summer's oper ation, 80 cents haa gone to the work ers. With an outlay of S3 1,000 this summer, then, he added, over $70,000 has been turned back Into local labor. Ten per cent of the total waa spent in supplies, leaving approximately 71.000 to the workers. For the successful operation of the lumber company under thla plan, Mr. Nutting aald, great credit ts due to James. H, Owen, who haa been an untiring worker and who insists upon continuing operation of the lumber company, which would otherwise have been shut down, throwing southern Oregon out of an Important payroll. The men are now working on their fourth unit, he stated, and are car rying on an extensive publicity pro gram to promote sales of the local product. The relief fund operated at the company was also described by Mr. Nutting as a very successful one. The men are asked at frequent intervals to work overtime without pay, and the money realized from their labor la placed In a relief fund, used to care for employes in time of illness. Mr. Nutting was Introduced at to day's meeting by Max pierce, program oh airman. . Rev.
