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.

(Associated Press Staff Writer)
WASHINGTON, July 28. (AP) A
flood of telegraphed pledges, hun
dreds upon hundreds of them, ena
wered today President Roosevelt's ap-
peal to the nation for Immediate en
rollment of all employers under the
blanket agreement to raise wages and
create new Jobs.
Hsrdly had he finished last night
the plain-worded, direct call for pa
triotic and unquestioned acceptance
of the voluntary and individual em
ployer-pledges to raise psy and
shorten houra before the answers be
gan to come In. Within an hour Sou
promises had come, a few more min
utes and the number doubled and
still there appeared no end to the
flow.
Response Gratifies.
The president and Hugh 8. John
son, the -man who is running the In
dustrial recovery unit, were reported
profoundly gratified. A White House
secretary said It was the greatest
spontaneous outburst that had
greeted any of the president's utter
ances. .
His appeal waa terse:
"We are not going through an
other winter like the last. It
Is time for courageous action, and the
recovery bill glvca ua the means to
conquer unemployment -"The.
proposition is simply this:
"If all employers will act together
to shorten houra and raise wsges we
can put people back to work. No em
ployer will suffer because the relative
level of competitive cost will advance
by the aame amount for all. But II
any considerable group should lag or
shirk, this great opportunity will pass
us by and we will go Into another
desperate winter. This must not hap

OPERATORS UNITE
T NEW L
Farmers, truck gsrdeners, orchard
1st and truck drivers from the
Rogue River valley, numbering ap
proximately 40, met at the Talent
city hall last night and perfected an
organization to promote relief from
restrictions of the Produce Dealers
and Peddlers act and the new Truck
and Bus bill, recently adopted in
Oregon.
Petitions to be presented Governor
Julius L. Meter, seeking relief for
producers and truck operatora, who
have allegedly been forced out of
business by the new laws, are being
prepared today and will be In circu
lation this week.
The meeting, called by Mayor C. F.
Estea of Talent, proved a very en
lightening one for many agricultur
ists of the valley, who were unaware
of the Interlocking phases of the two
bills and the necessity to combat
both In order to obtain relief from
either.
The bills were explained by George
S. Barton- of thla city, who acted as
chairman of the meeting, and a pro
posal to seek relief through the ad
ministrator of the National Indus
trial Recovery act was taken under
advisement.
The sp prop r lateness of seeking ac
tlon through that channel was em
