The First National Bank HOOD RIVER, OREGON Resources over a million 37 CITIZENS OPPOSED TO INCOME TAX The Good Manager While a straw vote taken among the shopping crowds of or- hardlsts and busineM folk Saturday indicated tliat tlie ini-ome tuxbill will be decidedly voted down here at the November election, it was also indicated tliat a large mass of voters remain undecided on the issue. A reporter walked up the main business straet,- securing the sentiment of voters, both men and women, as he met them. Twenty-four citizens registered em phatic disapproval of tlie income tax. Nine expressed unqualified approval. Twenty-two declared that they were undetermined. Three voters did not know a referendum election would Is* held. A straw vote of membera of the Tuesday Lunch Club at their weekly m<>eting at the Columbia Gorge Hotel, on the stiite income tax bill Ttiesdny resulted as follows: For the tax, 9; against the tax, 24, and two undeter mined. Expressions of both orchardists nnd tlie business element of the city Indi cate that the income tax measure will lie voted down here by greater than a 2 to 1 majority. Observers find a con siderable element of the .people who be lieve in the theory of an income tax but who declare tliat the Inw referred from tlie last legislature Is tilled with inequities.

I-ast year It was a frequent occurrence for ware houses to Is- clogged, neceadtating ces sation of deliveries of apples by grow ers from their packing plants. Hncli interruption iff the movement through receiving stations has occurred but once this season. Up to Saturday the Apple- GrowerH Association, which will have n tonnage of about 1,400,000 boxen. hn<l received at Its various plants 505,737 boxes, of which 200,124 bo^es had been forward ed by refrigerator ear to eastern des tination or by box car for Portland ex-' port or storage. The main complaint as to the refrigerator car service at present is that they arrive over tlie Union Pacific lines in hunches, &pne days, it is stated, there is a serious lack of rolling stock, and on other days the supply is so great that tlie Mount Hood R.
