BALEM, My 6 (P) Oregon's Tot-
rs are taking a much larger part tn
politics this year, possibly because of
Interest In the gubernatorial primary.

crease In the number of registered vot
ters since the 1B30 census, which
might Indicate that voters gradually
are becoming conecloua of the oper
atlon of their state government.

ed Toters has Increased 33 percent,
while the population, based on state
planning board estimates, ll only 10
percent larger.

percent, had the largest Increase In

crease during the eight years was
only 7 percent.

that Oregon's population last year
was 1,007.700, compared with 9fll.
084 In 1930. . The gain during the
seven years was 10 percent, compared
with 31 .8 percent between 1920 and
1930.
But of the net gain of 9,4 during
the seven years, 81,630 persona mi
grated from other states. This lesves
