Ye Cmudge Pot By Artbui Parry The legislature closed 1U session with the adoption of Sales Tax, to the end that the publlo schools do not perish, despite the agony oi : politician busy fanning the farmer. Eastern Oregon Wheat men divorced themaelvee from their leader, did their own thinking, and endoreed the Sale Tax. This la expected to be come state wide, and will be awful, resulting In more business manage ment and less speeches. The publlo e;!-co!ars quite Important to moth er, and at present hold the upper ; hand over the notion of agricultural leaders. There are more agricultural leaders than agriculturist. The lat ter, every waking moment are "apeak- j lng for the farmer." That Is why the , farmer la always In a hole, and ha a much chance of pulling himself out ' of It, by his own. bootstraps, as one ' of hi leader doing It. Now that the Sales Tax has been passed, every , effort will be extended to keep It. from being a success. The Sale Tax la disgustingly efficient mere is no way to duck It and doea that make . the political Moses of the farmers mad I All the farmer ha to do Is to j use his own commonsense, Instead of i blindly following the propogana sent him weekly from Portland.

Don 't Miss It, Mr. Fruitgrower THE Oregon State Horticultural Society meet here day after tomorrow for a two day session. An excellent program bag been prepared, with the moat, prominent fruit experts in Oregon and northern California, on hand to give the most up-to-date information, on important horticultural problems. No one in the fruit business can afford to miss these sessions. Raising fruit is merely a form of manufacturing. The two most important factors in its success, are first producing a high qual ity product and second getting that product at the lowest possi ble cost to the best consuming market, with that quality unim paired. , The latest information on these two problems will be pre sented, including the result of practical experience in recent years, in regard to irrigation, soil culture, spraying and pruning; as well as water shipments, the new N. R. A. fruit code, by products, and advertising. HERE in two days the ACCUMULATED information, of many years will be clearly presented. In addition to this program of tremendous practical of entertainment, which will everyone attending. The sessions will open at the ing at 9 :30, and close on Thursday afternoon with the election of officers for the ensuing year. Certainly the fruit industry foremost industry, but the very well being in Southern Oregon, this important gathering. Why, the Sales Tax? 7ES the state legislature has AGAIN passed a sales tax, Whyt Simply because, the tax problem, they eould find no other practical way to do it. A representative body of citizens could not be called in ANT section of the state, and with ously come to any OTHER conclusion. It's the only way. 'Why! Because the state is in a mess financially. To balance its budget, cash MUST in some way The property tax has broken income tax has been materially : declined that further increases ' supply the necessary revenue. Where then IS the necessary there IS cash. And WHERE is There is cash in sales jn there is also cash in the public utilities, for they do business in necessities on a cash basis. So the members of the legislature, as representatives of the people, in passing this new sales tax, involving a tax of one and one-half percent on tangible sales and public utility reve nues, did only what they had to do if they were to perform the duty the governor of the state called on them to perform. They passed this modified sales tax. With the greatest single tax paid to maintain our public school system, and with the failure of the property tax threatening the destruction of that system, the legislators very wisely provided that the revenues from this tax, should be devoted EXCLUSIVELY to maintain ing our schools. In this way there is no danger of the new tax revenue being turned over to the "tax enters", or tax wasters. TPHE opponents of the sales tax any sales tax, of course don't like this. They maintain, the legislature in passing such a tax, "betrayed their sacred trust", and open defied the will of the people of this state, who at the last election defeated a sales tax about four to one. This may "listen" well, but under any rational analysis it won't hold water. How long since, in ANT democracy, has the defeat of a measure, precluded the propriety of its revival! A state income tax was defeated four or five times before it finally passed and became a law. The people voted dry for years and years, and then changed their minds and voted wet. The first principle of a democracy, is based upon the inalien able right of the people to change their minds. If a majority of the people of this state DON'T want this new sales tax, all they have to do is VOTE against i. If they DO want it, WHO would deny them the right to have it! s a CO the legislature passed this sales tax, and we commend them for their courage and statesmanship in so doing. This tax is now, and aince the tax collapse started, HAS in our opinion BEEN, the only way out of a situation that is intolerable. No one likes a sales tax or any other tax for that matter. But the question is not what we LIKE, but what we must DO, to keep our publie schools open, and eventually balance our budget "yilE truth of this statement will become clearer as time goes on, and all the facta of the situation are presented. Between now and the inevitable referendum, we will merely urge our readors to study carefully the provisions of this new measure ; study the tax situation in every particular as it exists, then form their opinions, based not upon what someone ELSE tells them (including this newspaper), but what they THINK THEM SELVES. For the Mail Tribune ia convinced if the wiles and arts of the demagogue and the professional' politician fan be eliminated from this proposal, the modif'.ed sales tax will win, simply be cause the people as a whole will find that it is to their enlight ened self interest, to HAVE it win, and thus allow their state to survive a critical and unprecedented financial emergency which threatens state wide financial ruin.

In a talk about Oxyuris venntcu larls (plnworms) recently I said: "Prurltls (Itching) Is due to oxy uris Infestation In more cases than are definitely so diagnosed. Any one who suffers with pruritus In any de gree deserves to suffer If he or she falls to undergo a proper examina tion for accurate diagnosis."

Roosevelt, ac cording to an announcement from the national office of the Boy Scouts of America, has sponsored an award to Boy Scout troops, cub units and to local councils of Boy Scouts, who de velop efficiency and proficiency to a high degree, and which evidence the development In the Scout pro gram and activities which cornea from continuous membership. Believing that Scouts will gain from a longer tenure the Scouting authorities have devised the plan of awarda which the president, who la honorary president of the Boy Scouts of America, and still retains hta ac tive Scouting connection as president of the Boy Scout Foundation of Greater New York, has sponsored. Many of the awards wilt be made during the celebration of the 24th birthday of Scouting, February 8, to 14, 1934. There will be a red, white and blue silken streamer for each troop that qualifies and a knotted wide ribbon of red, white and blue silk for the Scout councils which, by a high fig ure of proficiency among the troops are entitled to the council awarda. The troop award and the council rib bon bear the following inscription : "The President Franklm D. Roosevelt 1933 Ten-Year Program Award." The point in membership tenure has been stressed in connection with the award because of the fact that the Scouting authorities feel that in view of the proposals for increased time of the present generation.

THIS more or less significant para graph appears In a Washington dispatch yesterday: t "The big job of revising the tax structure to increase federal Income by Moo.000,000 annually was tackled today by the ways and means com mittee of the house of representa tives." All thia talk of spending, In which we have been Indulging so gleefully for the past few months, has to be followed by talk of TAXING. That la the way governments have to get what they spend. WE TALK, In these daya, of Increas ing federal taxation by some 400,000.000, and In comparison with the total amount spent by the federal government that seems small. Yet It has been only, a few years. comparatively speaking, since the TOTAL COST of the federal govern ment was only 400 million dollars.

In addition at least half of the new members the troop gains during the year must be boys who have passed their 12th birthday, but are not yet 13, and at the same time, 80 per cent of the boys who become troop members In 1932 must be re registered for a continuing member ship.
