ALLOWED REVIEW OF
WASHINGTON, Oct. 20-ff-Dirk
De Jonge, a communist, was granted
a supreme court review today of nib
efforts to escape a seven-year term In
the Oregon state prison for violation
of the state's criminal syndicalism
law.
The court consented to review a de
cision of the Oregon supreme court,
which upheld a verdict against De
Jonge In tho trial court at Portland
Ore., In 1034.
The Oregon law provides a penalty
of one to 10 years Imprisonment and
a fine of $1,000 for anyone who advo
cates criminal, syndicalism, prints or
circulates literature on the subject,
or organizes groups for the purpose
of teaching syndicalism.
De Jonge contended the state law
violates the first amendment to the
constitution, providing for free speech
and free assembly, and the fourteenth
amendment. In that It deprived him
of liberty without "due process."

ARE you up on your market reports? Do you know
what to buy, and when, and where?
Brokers and floormen on the Stock Exchange do
their trading with a weather eye on the ticker. You can
govern your own buying just as efficiently by watching
the advertisements in this newspaper.
Women who follow advertisements realize their
news value. They learn what's new and smart and
right in the field of fashion.
Women who follow advertisements know when io
buy. They're keen students of value, and quick to see
a genuine bargain.
Women who follow advertisements know that they
can buy advertised goods with confidence. They know
that merchants will not risk their reputations by adver
tising inferior goods.
Time and effort (as well as money) are saved by
these women who read advertisements. They never
need "to shop around."
Advertisements are women's ticker tape. And wom
en who keep their shopping eye cocked upon them will
fill their wants to the proverbial "T."
County Is Rehabilitated
By Federal Investments
(Editor's Note This Is the third
of a aeries of articles snowing the
economy, wisdom and other benefits
of federal government Investment In
Jackson county. The first two articles,
published Sunday and Monday, dealt
with the Irrigation districts of the
Rogue River valley).
One of the constructive effects of
government Investment In Jackson
county Is reflected In tax collections.
In 1033 tax collections In Jackson
county amounted to 9855,317.50. In
the first three quarters of 1936 col
lections totaled 81,139.822.17. To this
may be added 9250,000 which is con
sidered a conservative estimate of
the payments for the remaining
quarter. This makes an estimated to
tal of 91,380,822.17 for 1036, repre
senting an increase of 9534,504.67
over the tax collections of 1033.
Back Taxes Paid
In some Instances the payment of
delinquent taxes was a requisite of
government assistance. In the case
of the Home Owners Loan corpora
tion, for example, a portion of the
loans in all instances was utilized
In paying back taxes. The same was
true of federal land bank and com
missioner loans made to save farms
through the refinancing of mortgages
Another effect of government ex-!
pendlture is shown in Jackson coun
ty securities. In 1933 county warrants
bearing 6 percent Interest were sell
ing at a discount of 10 to 15 percent
Today warrants bearing 5 percent
Interest are quoted at a premium.
The government, under the Roose
velt administration, has expended
93,393.599 In Jackson county to aave
homes, farms aru Irrigation dlstriots,
to rehabilitate the unemployed, to
assist communities build needed civic
improvements, io help farmers oper
ate their ranches, to aid families in
financing the construction of homes
under easy-term financing and to
accomplish other human better
ments.
Loans To Be Repaid
Much of the money Invested here
will be recovered by the government
so that Its purpose of rehabilitation
will have been accomplished without
monetary loss. For example, the se
cured Investments made to save the
Irrigation districts will all be repaid
So also will other expenditures, pro
jected as loans, be repaid to the gov
ernment.

penditures In Jackson county follows
