No. 106. nn M TORES i . r 11$ Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS YOU have to watch your atep mighty closely these day to keep from breaking the law. MORE laws, more complicated gov ernment. More complicated government, more cost. More cost, more taxes. More taxes, more com plaining. When people are In the mood to complain, they pass still more laws in the hope of curing the evils they complain about. ' Looks like a vicious circle doesn't It? IK this process ol passing laws, then complaining, then passing more laws, we do a? lot of queer things. Tears ago, for example, we put an amendment Into our constitution to the effect that taxea SIMPLY MUST N'T increase mora thsn six per cent a year. We Just wouldn't let 'em. It would be against the law. THEN, because we couldn't lncresse taxes and pay our bills as we went along, we turned In and voted bonds so enthuslastlcslly that now the state of Oregon and lt various aubdlvlslons owe a total debt of 213 MILLION dollars. THE 313 million dollar total debt represents a per capita debt of 239. "Per capita" Is a atatlstlclan's term meaning per head. That la to say. If the total debt of the state of Oregon were divided up equally among all the residents of Oregon, the share of each person from babies up to the dod derlngly aged would be 239. If you are the bread-winner for a family of four, your theoretical share of the debt Is 958. t COUT," you may say, "I have no U taxable property. I pay no taxes. So what does all this mean In MT lifer Let's see about that. Here on the Pacific Coast the taxes levied against the telephone company amount to 57 cents per month per telephone. This 57 cents per month la Includ ed In your telephone rental which, presumably, would be 67 cents less If it were not for the tsxes the tele phone company has to pay. SO, you see, the 'subject of taxes, which Is all bound up with the subject .of public debts, DOES "mean something in your life, whether you psy tsxes DIRECTLY or not. IT means something to you In two ways. Tsxes are added to the cost of what jou buy. They HAVE to be. Other wise, those who sell would go broke. So. beceuee of tsxes. what you buy COSTS MORE. ' Wages can be paid only out of prof It. Taxes hsve to come out of prof its before wages can be paid. The more taxea, the less profit left for1 wages. BUT thst ought to be enoih about taxes for one dsy. Let's see what else there In the news. Tennessee goes wet. sfter the clos est straggle yet recorded. But It goes wet, after having been dry for 24 years. The pendulum Is swinging. HARD liquor la coming. What will we do with It when It get here gets here Iff ally, that Is? How will we permit it to be sold? How will we handle the abuses that develop under Ita open and legal sale which are many and terrible? These are all questions to be think ing about.

FRONTSL OFFICE Jabbed In the back with an object thought to be a gun. and ordered to "do as I tell you," Mrs. Lorraine Maben, bookkeeper at the Foster and Kletser offices on South Front street was forced Into the oil room at the office about ftve o'clock yesterday afternoon by a man. who escaped with the cash box containing $76.80, according to city and state police who Investigated the robbery.
