through which he has trudged taking
any action for the welfare of the

"the determination of the young

Six and one half Inches of rain, the

night to a. m. today, street In
some sections were flooded. The

It's Up to Them Now I
OELIEF funds are exhausted. To continue relief work the
" remainder of this year, the state and its various subdi
visions must find &1,150,000 with only about $100,000 available.
For the year 1934, the cost of relief is estimated at 6,000,000,
of which amount the state and counties would have to provide
$4,500,000 on the basis of $2 from the state for every dollar
from the government.
In other words the people of Oregon will have to raise a
total of $5,500,000 in order to take care of its needy and desti
tute until the end of 1934, and also secure its share of federal
aid. '
One need go no further to realize that from the standpoint
of relief work Oregon is in a jam and a serious one.
GOVERNOR MEIER is considering a special session of the
legislature to tackle the problem and endeavor to arrive
at some solution.
If the session is called then we feel it is up to those forces
in the state, headed by the Oregon Journal, which overwhelm
ingly defeated the proposed sales tax, to show the way out.
Proponents of the sales tax pointed out during the enmpaign,
that the defeat of the tax would lend to the critical situation,
which the state now faces. Federal relief funds would not be
available. With the collapse of the property tax, the inade
quacy 'of the income tax, the sales tax appeared to them the
only way out.
But the Portland Journal, the leaders of the state grange
and others, declared there WAS another way out. The sales
tax they flayed as a tax that would benefit only the rich man
and make the poor man bear the rich man's burden. State
Treasurer Ilolman maintained the sales tax was not needed,
that the state could get along without it; all it needed to do
was follow out BUSINESS LIKE principles of administration.
A LL right. Let's hear what those business like principles
" ARE. Let Rufus tell the legislature, what to do, so neces
sary funds ean be raised, and Oregon CAN receive its pro
portion of federal aid in this serious economic and financial
crisis.
Certainly wo can't let our destitute people starve. .Nor can
we secure money from turnips, or from the "i1"-
Last spring no one particularly WANTED the sales tax. But
under the emergency that existed it appeared to those who
carefully studied tho situation, that without such a tax, a state
wide calamity could not be avoided. It seemed to them the
only tax available to pull the state out of the mire that threat
ened general destruction,
. That sort of talk was dismissed by the Journal and other
anti-sales tax propagandists as a lot of, campaign hooey. The
state would be OK and the suffering people in it properly cared
for, if the sales tax with all its iniquities were snowed under,
and those against the tax placed in control.
Well, when the legislature is called, they WILL BrJ IN
CONTROL. In the face of such an overwhelming defeat, the
sales tax proponents, will have nothing more to say.
We trust tho Oregon Journal, Rufus Ho'.mnn, and State
Grange Master Gill will have something to sny. We trust they
will make gobd on their campaign fledge, that the sales tax
was not only wicked, but unnecessary that it could be defeated
and the economia and financial emergency could still be prompt
ly and easily met. '
For the next 16 months, the state and its various subdivi
sions, will have to raise $5,500,000 to secure federal aid the
proportion of fedoral aid other states are scouring, and thus
provide food and-work for those who have neither.
It is certninly up to those who killed the sales tax, because
it wasn't needed, and was wicked in. purpose and principle
to show the way.
It will be interesting to see what their financial program
will be.

Search behind th eeara and over

The nits are the eggs of the lice.
It Is easy to mistake them for Ioom
dandruff scales. But the dandruff
scales are readily moved long the hair
to which they may be attached; nits
are firmly glued to the hair shaft,
usually close to the scalp. The lice
themselves are easier to remove, but
of course any nits not removed or
killed will hatch Into Hoe in a few

Bear tn mind the way lice spread-

it waa definitely under control. Late

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Kerosene Blisters.
Regarding the use of kerosene for
blistering or drawing out Inflamma
tion. It has been so used for many
years In my mother's family for sore
throat, tied around throat with a
flannel over night, and In the morn
ing there would be great blister and
the cold would be entirely gone .-. .
Moher has a stiff knee would you
recommend trying the kerosene treat
ment on it? Miss M. K.
Answer If the skin Is watched and
the kerosene removed as soon as the
skin becomes reddened, the counter
irritation does no harm, though blis
tering for a simple sore throat seems
a pretty severe treatment. Person
ally, I'd rather have the sore throat
than the blisters.
Firemen IHn't Make Front Page.
Please run your' cynical eye over
the Inclosed clipping and tell us
whether an up-to-date clinic has
steam fitters and plumbers on Its
staff. H. T. M.
Answer The Item tells of the de
mise of the wife of a former local
office holder at the So-and-So Clinic
after efforts of firemen with an ln
halator had failed to revive her. It
does look as though the customers
are getting wise to the clinic racket.

old .employes to believe that their
former Jobs are open to tnem. ana
after It is too late to receive employ
ment elsewhere the firm first men

This seems to me a very serious
predicament In which to place a per

be exposed.
To take advantage of a working
man in times like these is a very rude
way of doing business. Putting old
