Mm 44 1 PS IfflE .1 !' li Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS RELIEF needs In Oregon thla win ter are expected to total eight million dollars, of which the govern ment will provide three millions while the state must provide the other ' Jive. How? That question will plague the legis lature when It meets In special ses sion late In October. M THERE Is an old saying to the ef fect that "you can t get blood out I of a turnip" which is quite all right, because nobody WANTS to get blood out of a turnip. But it la equally true that you can't squeeze much In the way of additional taxes out of taxpayers who are already squeezed dry, and in this Instance It DOES matter, because It relief needs are to be provided for more taxes will have to be squeezed out. And relief needs MUST be provided for. THE governor's special committee to find ways and means of doing the squeezing meets In all-day ses sion, snd decides that liquor will have to provide about HALF of the amount needed. Pair enough. Those who can af ford liquor can afford to help the needy. ewiHE governor committee decides 1 also that betting on horse and dog racing can stand some more squeez ing, and recommends quadrupling the present tax. In this way. It Is estimated, another half million csn be raised. FAIR enough agsln. If you can afford to bet on the races, you can afford to help feed the hungry. Nobody will contradict that. M THE gentlemen who will purvey hard liquor to the masses when liquor again becomes legal and the gentlemen who handle the betting concessions at the race tracks, both dog and horse, will offer no objection to these taxes. They know that vice, when TAXED HEAVILY, Is tolerated by respectable people, and If vice Is to continue and flourish It MUST be tolerated by re spectable people. f SPEAKING of dog and horse races, by the way, the dog races hsve been by far the more popular of the two In Oregon, drawing the bulk 01 the crowds and getting the bulk ot the betting. Can you best thatr M BUT getting back to taxes for relief purpose. The governor's special committee proposes a tsx on admissions to prize fights, wrestling matches and similar ' exhibitions that la to say, a SALES TAX. We complain bitterly about sales taxes that are applied to necessities, but will probably pay without com plaint much stlffer sales taxes levied on our smusements. We pay willingly, you see, to be amused, but GRUDGINGLY to be fed, housed and clothed.

(AP) A four point rehabilitation program for World War veterans, differing sharp ly In one respect from President Roosevelt's outlined policy, apparently was a step nearer adoption today by the annual convention of the Ameri can Legion. Despite the president's statement to the Legion yesterday that veterans sufferings from ailments incurred since the war may receive federal hos pitalization only if their local and state communities are unable to take care of them, the Legion's rehabilita tion committee approved a plan tor hospital treatment, for all ex-soldiers of the World War, regardless of when they were Incapacitated. Would Hospitalize All The committee's report, made last night, said that- "hospitalization under federal government auspices should be afforded all veterans not dishonorably discharged who require pay for their own treatment. The other points In the program, which has been approved by 43 of the state departments, are: "That no war veteran disabled In the line o? duty shall suffer any reduction of those benefits granted such ve'erana as in. the World War veterans' act in effect prior to March 20, 1R33, VThat perpetuation of service for al! veterans properly granted aurh conncrttons under laws In existence prior to March 20, iS3S, be recom mended.

"That benefits provided for de pendents of veterans as established tn the World War veterans' act be re sumed and maintained as the gov ernment's policy and that In no event shall widows and dependent children of deceased war veteran be without government protection," At the same time the committee tabled resolutions asking an investiga tion of Gen.

HAVANA. Oct. 3 (AP) Warfare In which at least 44 were killed and 89 wounded left Havana today on trigger edfcc A day long battle between several hundred officer barricaded Irv the National hotel and the "enlisted men's" army yesterday did not end with the surrender of the officers. Through the nlrtt, bullets whizzed In the streets and Havana, which has seen recent governments rise and fall with much bloodshed, discovered to day that a truce had not yet been called. What the ABC Revolutionary so ciety would do stood out as today's major enigma. That militant organi zation failed to take the of (leer's side actively In the storming of the hotel yesterday preferring to main tain an 'expectant" attitude. The events were- believed- sot to have lessened the ABC opposition to President Hamot G7au San Martin and many professed to foresee a near ly continuou Ouarrttts warfare aacit aa that against former President Ma chado, who fled before a revolution in August. OF "Inflation la dynamite; It can be made to do Just exactly what the work Intended and do it well. If properly handled, or will blow up the entire country if Improperly handled." C. T. Steward said today In his Interesting address on "Infla tion" before the membens of the Medford Rotary Club. A large turn out ot Rotarians assembled In the basement banquet hall of the Med ford hotel for their weekly luncheon and enthusiastically received Mr, Steward's enlightening talk. Effect of Inflationary activities in past history were briefly mentioned by the speaker before delving into his much-discussed topic. "In all past depressiona accident have happened to bring the country and the world back to normalcy," Mr, Steward said. In outlining Inventions and discoveries whtch vitally affected economic conditions during past "slumps." "This depression- has not been so accidentally fortunate. Man must now create his own accident, his own solution. This necessitates experimenting and. the greatest minds and thinkers are attacking this per plexing problem. Roosevelt's greatest single problem and the one he has been most re luctant and hesitant to work upon la Inflation. Mr. Steward told the Ro tarians. The speaker then quoted Marc nose, editor of the Business Week, in hla recent article discussing this Important problem. He also ex plained why money caa become ad denly scarce due to the melting away of bank credit and pointed out the serious efforts of such parallel events i past history. A touch of humor was given to Mr, Steward's Inflation talk when he cart ed the Rotarians attention to the fact that the total mortgage debt of Oermany before the war and, after inflation in that country, this entire debt could have been paid with ona American copper cent. Before the war, Oermany has one and one-half billion dollars In circulation and, at the climax of Inflation, a box of matches would cost that much. A sheet of paper waa worth 940.00-, tte saving of a lifetime dwindled to the price of n cigarette. These facta wera mentioned to show the extremes of inflation if allowed to get out of control. Mr, Steward then spoke of the pres ent conditions, which have made the question of inflation a paramount Issue. Next weeks meeting of the club will be deroted to another talk by Mr. Steward on Inflation and a vaneral forum In which members will discuss the various phaaea ot this highly complex question. fornla was a tlsltor at today's meet- ir. 4 SALEM, Oct. a. fT Ptwsfrif- t bucksaw It a method of passing the buck when it comes to feeding tran sients, it was found at the Salem "flop house" last month.
