If carried, it means every stenographer, clerk, office girl, waiter girl, barber, printer, plumber, in fact practically every wage earner will join the income tax " paying army. The large income is. not. taxed as heavily in proportion as the small wage earner but capital is taxed just enough to keep it put of the state. And here is the reason for that : Money is the' most timid thing in all the world. The man "who has capital to invest and seeks a westfcrn state in whieh to invest it, is not coming to a state that has adopted an in come tax law when there are other states nearby that have not done so. This puts. Oregon to a decided, disadvantage should the Patterson income tax law pass, and puts us up as a target for all other states, who seek investments just as we are seeking them. , Another thing that large capital watches is the fact that when once an income tax law is put out on the statute books each legislature will, when wanting money for public pur poses, see fit to raise the percentage of tax as that money is needed. We have but to refer you to the state of Wisconsin which passed a harmless, apparently harmless, tncorae tax law years ago. For a while things ran along smoothly till more money, was needed for state purposes and then' the rates began to be raised until today it is almost impossible for large undertakings to handle their business in the state of Wisconsin, i If we are to handicap ourselves with such legislation. if we are to disregard the laws of average and the desires of people with capital who wish to come west and help to make Oregon the state that it should be, then it is time for us all to realize that we will sit here just - as we have r dona . for many years and permit the -state - of r California -on the south, the state of Washington on the north to gradually be come dominant and. let us sit as the lean streak in the fat sandwich of the Pacific coast. Sferarffe - lETTEE BY KODN'EY Dl'TCIIRR XKA Service, Writer' " Take No Chances Sixth street property owners are acting with judgment when they demand to know that the paving they are about to lay this time is going to last. The same property owners have paid for a pavement that went to pieces and is now worse than no pavement at all. ' No man likes to be caught twice on the same hook and the Sixth street property owners feel the same way. It is for this reason they. contemplate a journey: to view several different kinds of pavement and learn for themselves which pavement would be. most serviceable for the " heavy traffic which Sixth street will carry. It is not at all pleasant for the property owners to cough up another pavement tax; in the wake of one just finished, for a pavement that was useless, and therefore each of them can be pardoned if they seem 'to exercise caution even to the limit of being critical on paving matters. , .Laying a pavement is of the utmost public concern even though abutting property pays for tne .' pavement. And Klamath Falls has surely suffered some of the grossest treat ment ever accorded any city in some of the paving laid in the past. Without doubt no one can produce a rival for poor povement, and the Sixth street area suffered intensely from a pavement that did not last. In laying the new one let us have one that will do service in the manner a pave ment should. 4 Use the Scarifier Again There is general approval of the city's action in tearing up the "holy" pavement on east Sixth street, for in putting the plows and scarifiers at work the city has put the street in condition that a spring will not be broken when riding over it. The rotten pavement is4gone on that street and in its place is a street that can be used. Another place where we would like to see the same scarifier do its work is on the road to Shippington. Of all the bad pieces of road in the entire' universe that seems to be worst. ' It was once dignified by the word pavement, but now it is a series of potholes, growing . deeper each day. There i.4 just enough paving remaining to make it trie worst thing imagineable. ' " ' '" .' Somehow, the thought comes to us often that the Baldock oiled road when kept up is far superior to the class of paving that has been laid in many sections of the city. This newspaper has no disposition to advise the city administration on its affairs, but we do know that a feeling of real gratitude will be experienced' by the people if the scarifier is made the official implement of the road depart, ment and used with considerable vigor on several things that were once called pavements. WASHINGTON senator J. noom boom McWhorter ts sorely miffed over the failure of the clgaret com panies to approach him for permis sion to use his name and comment in .their ads. N'ot that Senator McWhorter Is a grasping person, you understand. The money tho clgaret people mlKlit pay him means nothing to hint. Nor is tho senator so anxious to get his topography Into the newspapers that he must sink to such means as that. Hut It Is Just a- bit humiliating to see the pictures of other senators in the papers, alongside their asser tions that Mucky Bites clgareti help them In public speaking and that they are bringing up their families on Mucky Bites. '"" : Just as soon, as ha saw the first of these ads. Senator McWhorter dictated an elaborate encomium to these cigarets and had It all ready to send upon request. But although such senators at Wadsworlb. Curtis and Watson made their bows to the public and contributed each his praise to this brand, there was- no call for MaWhorter.. . The culminating blow came when clgaret ad appeared quoting "Senator" Ralph Cameron ot Arl- tona, who Is' no longer a senator. Surely the tobacco trust had no Idea hat an enthusiastic and loyal cus tomer It had In McWhorter. "Why. I might even have given the $1000 to charity," said Senator McWhorter to your correspondent. with what sounded suspiciously like a sniffle. Your correspondent held ' the senator's hand, patted him on the shoulder and asked It ho couldn t read the tribute .to the senator's favorite clgaret. "Yes," said McWhorter, reaching toward his desk, "I'll read it to yon." And the senator began: "When I was but a lad. I had a helluva time learning to smoke. Prom the age of three to the age of nine years and seven months, life was constant agony tor ' me through stomach sickness brought on by trying to join the other boys and girls in this diversion and through the shame of my weakness. The other children would laugh heartily at me and finally I was too embarrassed to. Join: them 1, their play-. ... "Then, one glorious day." I dis covered Mucky Bites! From that day to this a clgaret has never made me 111, hut I shudder to contemplate what might happen "were I (o try another brand. "Every nlght I retire with a park age under my pillow. Supreme happiness for my children Is to have their dady return home from a trip with a cartoon ot Mucky Bites." WASHINGTON One of the most astonishing things about life In Washington Is the fact that no man in public lite can ever perform B gracious or meritorious act without bearing ell the sraartles brand Is as inspired "by politics. The trouble Is, of course, that more often than not the smarticn are dead right. At any rate; It seems rather a shame that this stuff couldn't havo been kept out of the picture with Lindbergh's return and triumphal reception. Instead, many of the anti-adminis tration folk long since began to voice the suspicion that President Colidgc had finally derided to take care of Lindbergh's homecoming lest he be nosed out of some Important publicity and national good will by Governor Al Smith of New York. who might otherwise have done tho honor's in company with Tammany's mayor, little Jimmy Walker. Somehow, Calvin Coolldge's repu tation as a good politician simply won't let his ill-wishers keep off his neck whenever he speaks or acts. On the other hand, one correspon dent here wrote seriously the other day that no man In the United State was more excited and thrilled over Lindbergh's feat than the president. This was quite absurd, for Mr. C'ool- idge hasn't been genuinely excited over anything whatever in recent years. The fact that stands out just now Is that JHr. Coolldge has done the correct thing by Lindbergh and has done Just what the country wanted him to do. More could hardly be asked. Tho court action which threatens to complicate the activities ot the Federal Radio Commission was pre dicted by Congressman Sol Bloom of "New York in recent conversation. Bloom expressed the belief that the courts would decide broadcasting to be a matter for state regulation and thai the radio law, based on the Idea that broadcasting 'was In terstate commerce, would be cast out because In brosdcastlng there Is no buying and selling. Bloom said he was In thorough sympathy wltn the commission's work, but feared that it had no right to Interfere in broadcasting unless It was really In terstate commerce. WASHINGTON The capital city Is all of a-twltter over rumors that Senator 1. Boomboom McWhorter has contracted a cuso ot presiden tial rubles. - - Tho local lorn) of tho I'olllliitl Wiseacres . Villon, at its bi-weekly meeting, voted almost unanimous ly Hint there . wore grounds tor such a rumor and Hie rumor was promulgated with a union luliel. Hardly any other const ructlou.

He denounced fill's foot Jelly In such scathing ' terms that he stamped himself as one of the most advanced drya In public life. ' " When the nation first heard of Senator McWhorter'a opposition' to oilf's-fool Jelly, Ilia question " was at once asked why Senator McWhor ter didn't direct his ammunition against pickled pig's feet. ' Many substantial perilous expressed ' tht opinion .that pickled pig's feet should be abolished first and that ralf's-toot Jelly could wait. .' Sena tor McWhorter, however, soon en lightened them In the followlng publlc statement: "After copious rnscnivlt nml con Mill ut Ion with tho best authorities, I believe It Is now (ItliiiK to dot-lure myself upon one of tho gravest Issues that ion fronts our times.
