The elimination of the state budget committee is also ap proved. For the same reason, that action might as well be carried out. ; In fact the ENTIRE STATE GOVERNMENT might as well be abolished, including the legislature, the office of governor, secretary of state, and if the Journal is willing, the office of state treasurer, even though it might deprive its political fa vorite Rufus Holman, of a job. UNDER present conditions, which the Journal is partly re sponsible for, and which It strongly approves, Oregon has no further use for representative government We elect a man for governor, who as chief executive is sup posed to run the affairs of the state, but we refuse to let him run them. We elect representatives to the legislature to legislate, to pass laws to determine policies, but after they have determined them, we proceed to nndo all they have done. We select a tax commission to formulate definite taxation policies, delegate them with that power, but when this has been done, we proceed to repudiate the action at the first opportunity. We also select a budget committee, with the power to out line expenses .eliminate duplications and extravagances, place the financial affairs of the state on a business basis, but after they have funotioned, we at least the Journal docs charge the committee with curtailing neither waste nor graft, main tain "it is a department without an excuse for existence, and should be abolished." e o e e e CO ON all down the lino. We are supposed to live nnder a representative government, but we don't, and as long as the Journal has Its way, we never will. Theoretically we give these various delegates certain powers, but actually we don't allow them to exercise those powers. At every opportunity we cither hamstring representative government or repudiate it. ' WHY continue the faroet Why keep on electing 'men to office, why delegate to tbcra certain powers, and then promptly withdraw that authority, and.refiise to let them exer cise those powors. ' It's a waste of time and money. We should either retain representative government, SUPPORT AND MAINTAIN IT; as our forefathers intonded; or admit that representative gov ernment is another thing that the depression has broken down, and frankly go over to Fascism or the dictatorship of the prole tariat. There is no other outcome. The Demagogue Journal CO WHILE, on this lino of reasoning, we sec no objection to the J Journal's program of turning the rascals out, we neverthe less refuse to subscribe to the Journal's justification for its courso. It favors eliminating the state tax commission for example, booause as the Salem Capital Press states: "Instead of evolving aclentlflo waya of equalising the tax burden aa It claimed It waa going to do, It haa busied Itself finding new aubterranean waya of raising money for the tax spenders, and In schemes to place the entire burden on the poor Instead of tha rich via such proposals as the salea tax." The sales tax again 1 Now tho Journal KNOWS that oharge isn't true, or if it doesn't then it knows NOTHING about the state tax commission, or the tax situation in this state. The members of the state tax commission are all honest and honorable men. Tho idea that they spent their time trying to soak the poor man is so utterly absurd and unfounded, that we are amazed that a paper of the Journal's standing would be so unfair and shameloss as even to COUNTENANCE it. They are and always have been, working night and day, to devise the best and fairest tax system that can be devised. e a e o a 'T'RUE thoy favored the sales tax,' So did Governor Meier. So did BOTH houses of the legislature. So did practically every student of the state's tax problom, solely interested in tho host method of meeting the prosent crisis in state finances, rather than in what was POPULAR or might secure votes. Seven other states in the country faced by the same situation, all passed the sales tax. We have yet to hear of ONE of them where the tax has not been a success, has not done what MUST be done, secure sufficient cash, in the earliest possible time, to run the government and ward off bankruptcy and repudi ation. Of course tho Journal fought it, because' it knew, as did everyone else, that the tax would not bo popular and with the proper appeal to class prejudice and the usual arts of dema goguery, it could easily be beaten. It was a field day for the demagogues and the rabble rousing press and politicians. Tho Journal called the sales tax wicked in principle and vicious in practice. ' Tet if the Journal is honest and sincere in this statement, how does it justify its fulsome praises for the Roosevelt agricul tural relief bill; its failure ever to criticize, much less condemn, tho stato gits tax, or the hghway program financed largely by itt These are sales taxes. If the PRINCIPLE is wrong how can its application ever be right! IT condemned the stato sales tax also because the consumer has to pay. But who pays tho GAS tax t Certainly not John D. Rockefeller. The consumer pays it. Who pays thr federal processing tax on wheat as porfect a sales tax as anyone could wish to see, the consumer again, the "poor dovil'' who has to buy a lonf of bread, ' ' Who pays the cotton tax, the other SALES taxes of the New man or woman, buying cotton But apparently that's all right according to the Journal. In fact it's the perfect fruition of genius, the apogee of patriotism. Sales taxes put into effect by meet tha present acuta emergency in federal finances are fine and dandy, but when a Republican administration in the state of Oregon tries to do THE SAME THING, on a broader, fairer scale and for the SAME reason "It's a wicked, diabolical plot by enUeuulied wealth and Not! pork tax, the meat tax all the Dealt The consumer every cloth or a slice of ham. a democratic administration to venal politicians to benefit the rich and pauperize the poor!"

Dr. de ll t Duel Mother, tor Born jre&rt med ical advlMr of women Id Stanfoid University, haa one of tboie "queer ndtlone" I am subject to. but abetiu It la a comparatively mild form. . in her fine lit tle book. "Per sonal Hygiene for Women," pub llshed by Stan ford University 1 Press, (and an M meal H.50 gift for any girl, I should think), Dr. M a her says: "The importance of bathing is also overlooked, especially at the men- strual period, why should a wo man alter all her habits of life so sharply at the time of menstruation? This alone is sufficient to account fot many of her symptoms. At the time of her functional periodicity she needs more rather than less bathing, provided ..." Here I deeply regret to say the author uses ft lot of weasel words that suck the significance out 'of the wholesome and san view already ex pressed. Perhaps her purpose was to let the old fogies down gently. Or It may be that her publishers de cided the Doctor's teaching was too startling and she'd have to add on a few hundred words to salve down the old parties who have the most to say If not much to do In Medi cine today. Publishers are like that. If you have any clear Ideas to Im part to the public you had better be your own publisher and take all the blame or censure yourself. Why should a woman change her hablto of life so sharply at the time of her functional periodicity? No reason that an Intelligent person can express In unequivocal language. And why ahould she change her whole attitude and her philosophy or her way of thinking at this time? The woman at this time may bathe, Dr. Mosher says, provided care Js taken to prevent chilling of the sur face, and provided she gradually ac customs herself, without fear or wor ry In regard to consequences, to rat ional bathing at this as well as other times. That's too bad. 1 have recom mended Dr. Moshcr's book to a great many young women who sought es sential knowledge and sound advice the subject, and I'd reluct to Pete! Applegates Canoe Trip Rivals Columbus' Famed Voyage for Blind Going Montreal, Again. Quebec, Canada. To the Editor: This Is getting rather monotonous, I'll bet, listening to Applegate talk about running back and forth be tween Nomlntngue and Montreal, but monotonoua as It may sound, we've really had quite a bit of fun doing It. Last week 1 believe I mentioned an attempted canoe trip that had failed miserably on account of rain. This week we completed the trip, and It was atlll raining. The trip waa made In an eleven foot birch-bark canoe. The only weapon, 1 believe, ever developed by the Indian that ever threatened to hold the white man In check. If the government hadn't abolished their use In umpty-ateen. thla story would never be written by me, nor read with avid Interest by you. There being no other type of canoe obtainable, Don and I therefore had to make the best of It and pack our blankets and grub and start out. The day was lovely, and hardly a cloud waa In sight. The lake waa like clasa. Not a atlr of wind. And It waa nice and warm. Sooner or later I'll learn that those conditions of the elements are to be looked upon with suspicion. Before leaving we had obtained maps from the McOtll university summer camp ahowtng Just where we were going and how to gc there. I ahould say, "Vertigo and how to get there," but that would be a pun, so I won't. Theie msps were the most lying documents I've seen In some time. The first part of the trip, all miles, must needs be accomplished with the Dodge, and Eddie Oreer drove ua over, to return for us In two days. Our starting point waa to be an old aaw mill on Lao dea lalea, a lake about twlc or thre. tlmea the aire of Diamond Lake. Aa we left the pier, two glrle In a silver canoe came out onto the water acrona from us, snd started out. Being In good condition from our mountain climbing, w. put on th. heat and flashed past them In a lather of foam. In a ehort time we were out of alght around the first bend of the rim of the lake. And there we made our first mistake. Tha map showed tha turn, and ao we took It. We could aee a big arm of the lake oft to our right, but the map aald left and w went left. We paddled for an Intermable time, at laat coming to a long narrow atrip of water which had no place on the map. But wa went thru It anyway, and then tried to guess our direction, Don and 1 almost getung Into a fight about which way to turn. Tho map waa very clear on this point. Scat tered along our Intended rout, ware scattered various marker., euch aa , stars, asterisks, snd pot-hooks of an (original kind that I have not aeen before. At on. part, It waa very definitely Brady, MJ. discourage sny girl or woman from enjoying a swim or a bath whenever she might wish to go In. All these to whom I have recom mended the book and others who have yet to read It should know there Is no sense In that quaint Idea of getting gradually accustomed to bathing or to swimming or to going In the water. I mean ao far aa health or hygiene la concerned. Any girl who is not feeble-minded ought to know enough to come out when she Is too cold to enjoy the water sny longer, or to stay out If the water Is so cold no one can enjoy It. By the same token any girl, child, wo man or man may safely decide for themselves at any time or In any ctrcumstsnces whether they will go in swimming or take a bath. No one but an idiot needs a doctor or anyone else to caution care about such a question, t hope that when Dr. Mosher re- vises her excellent little book she'll delete the 8alreygamp stuff from the third chapter.

Beverly Hills. Cadf. marked with a elgn aaylng "log cabin" and at another point "sunken boat." But we could find neither. So we decided to turn right, and keep going. We did so, and after about an hour and a half more furious canoe ing, we rounded a point of land only to encounter two more glrla In an other silver canoe. The woods were full of them. So boldly we bawled acroaa the water to find what lake we were on. Our line of march allow ed Lao dea Isles, Lao Croix, Lao St. Denis, Lac Margol, and Lac Some-thlng-or-other-that-I-forget. Since we had gone thru three lakes already, we reflected, we must now be on Las St, Denis. But It la always a good thing to check one's position. Just for luck. So we hollered over to find out. It took us quite a while U get this figured out, but finally we) did. We had been paddling around a rather large Island for the better part of the day, and were now within a half a mile of where we'd started, and the glrla were the aama two we'd eeen before, only they looked different because when they went home for lunch they'd changed their costumes. The one who lived on the run of the lake, for one of them did, could apeak no English, and the one that could apeak English dldnt know a darn thing about the lake. But be tween the two we finally made out tha direction w. went supposed to take (almost directly opposite of tha one we had taken) and started out, all over again. Wa Invited the two girls along as guides but they de clined. We finally found the first portage, accompanied by two of the log cab ins mentioned on the map, altho they were on the wrong portage. Thla first portage waa about half a mile long, and we hoisted the canoe onto our shoulders and carried It. coming back for the other stuff. The other end ct the trail embraced one end of a large though narrow lake, which must have been Lao CroU. The map indicated a right turn at this point, ao we made a left one, and soon found tha next portage. After making thla one, by carrying th. canoe rlght-alde-up, with our supplies In It. we again launched on , a lake, which looked nothing ltke any ' on the map. Juat aa the sun went I down. We had two more lakes to cross and thre. more portage, before w. were to camp at a McOlll outpost, for th. night. Th. first lake waa a I little on, and we made no difficulty ' at the next portage, but by the time w. mad. th. second lake. It waa el : most dark. Ws could hardly aee th. ! farther shore, ao we traversed that pend at an enormous rat. of speed, 1 and at aa enormous persons! rtak. only to be unsble to find th. portsare In the murky gloom of th. fsrther I ahoro. I After peddling about la tbt dark for aoms minutes, w. finally dtacor- ered a break In the treea, which proved to be a amsU, tho deep, creek, i Fearing leat we be forced to spend tb. night out In the open, we pushed on thru It, and eventually emerged upon another lake, tha alu of which ; w. were unaoie, naturally, io ais cevar In that Inky Told. Anyway, ww started out. If w got within fifty feet of th ahore we could ee the line of dead white driftwood which lined it, and thus kept from getting lost at sea. It must have been two hours that w. pursued this foolish pastime In tb. vain hop. of finding tb. camp. At last ws cam. to another break In the trees, not nearly so weU defined, but stUl a line of grey against a background of Jet. We edged our decrepit and deceitful craft Into this, an Inch at a tune, ascertaining our position every minute or ao by the uae of matches. The passage waa only about a hundred yards long, but It took ua at least twenty minutes to encompass the Journey, caroming off sunken rocks one minute only to tnrow ourselves against an overhang ing piece of driftwood the next. It wes a decidedly eerie feeling. Not a alar overhead, not a 'thing on either side but a atloky sort of black, only a harry grey In front to ahow the way we were to go, and no aound aave the dlp-gurgzle-awui of our p addles. Don waa In th. front, and I was In th. back, but we had to light matches to see if we had not reversed direc tions In the dark. At long last we came to the next lake, but the Im penetrable black waa too much for us and we decided to crawl out on the bank and hole up for tha night. Even thla could not be accomplish ed without a great deal of effort, since the slightest move off center was apt to upset ua, and atnee the bank was tightly rimmed with a ten foot high pile of driftwood. We at laat found, at the mouth of the con necting stream, however, a clearing a few yards square, and attempted to land a reconnolterlng party. Don waa it. We lit more matches ao as to be able to dodge rocka till w. got In close enough, and then he stepped out, and soon announced that the place would do. I followed him out by stepping from the canoe to a rock to the bottom of the lake, some tew feet away. The boat had drifted out to the middle In the dark, of course. We had to build a fire of wet wood, and try to dry our clothes. I burned my socks, and Don didn't have to, since he had lost his earlier In the day. He'a the beat guy at losing his sock I ever saw. He lost one down nt Valentine's one night, If I remem ber correctly. It must have taken ua a good hour to get warm enough to think of go ing to bed, and by that time It had started to rain. We transferred oper ations higher up on the hillside Into the dense under-bruah, under a very large maple tree, and cleared away a place wide enough for two, and made a mattreaa of leaves. It rained all night, but our emergency home served us well, and we weren't very wet In the morning. In fact a flock of partridges woke us up In ' th. morning digging for worms In th. fresh dirt we had thrown up clearing the debris from our bedroom the night before. When dayUght finally put In an appearance we crawled back down to the shore to cook breakfast, and darned If we weren't In the same place that we'd been at duak the night before. The answer, of course, la elmple enough. The laat lake that we'd entered thru the little atream In the fast gathering dark, altho gi gantic on the map, was comparative ly email in reality, and we'd paddled completely around It, going out by the same way we'd come In, But I'll be dog-goned If that atream look ed the same. The last time It had seemed only about half a wide as the first time. The McOlll camp that we'd scoured the countryside looking for the night before was about thirty feet further up the hill than where we'd slept. We stayed there all that day and all that night Just listening to It rain, and feeling sorry for ourselves for having to go back thru It. We made no nurtak on that point, at any rate, for back thru It we went the next day. We hated to Juat go out In the rain ana take it, so wa rigged up poles at each end of the canoe, and strung rope alona them, with bars like a radio antennae, and hung our poncho acroaa the resultant irame-work. May Qod bleaa the in. dividual that Invented ponchosl It neipeo. a nine, but It made the canoe top-heavy, whereas the canoe waa quite top heavy enough In Its native atate. And It made it Impossible to portage with the canoe over our I i u ue proper way to port- anft au i vej peen tola. We were better than half way home, soaked to the akin and half frozen, when I suddenly made the cheerful discovery that I'd left my wallet at the camp, and had to back after It. I wanted to go alone, but Don would have none of It. By the time we'd gotten there and back to Lac des lalea, the Wind had whipped up a darling of a storm, and the lake waa raging. Thlte capa were on every wave, and the rain was bucketing down slant-wise, putting a nice layer of suds over the whole thing. Nice. Very nice, but we decided we'd rsth er drown In the Iske then shiver with cold aa we drowned on the shore so we etruck out. It took us hours to cross that lake, and the wind waa rising every minute, threatening to swamp us the next. We did ship a quart or two of water on every wave-crest, but we were well equip ped to ball, and w arrived back at the mill In a long time, nearly drowned, cold and shivery, hungry, snd without even a dry match to afford the comfort of a cigarette. Eddie wasn't dus with the car for a few hours, ao we stripped, rolled up In our wet blankets, with bricks for plUowa, In an old ahed of the mill, and actually slept tiu be got there. How, I can't Imagine. Neither Don nor I have any Idea what la likely to transpire next week, but whatever It Is, It can't be as unpleasant as that canoe trip. So long. Bon Homme Richard.
