THHE special session of the
m the l. 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.

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

change their aet-up, as tha Interest
rate charged oy sne local cump-u.

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

me wa ere moving In a circle. If
somebody haa the money to loan, he
can Just as well put It directly at

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.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Bunk In the Laundry.
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.
Cod Liver OIL
Large bottle of cod liver oil for less

. . . Is It ail right to use?-JMrs. H. A
Answer If any manufacturer's
name appears on the label it Is prob
ably all right, provided the manu
facturer Is of known repute. Now
and again we hear faint rumors of
other, and cheaper fish oils haiflng
been found satisfactory as substi
tutes for the too expensive cod liver

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
