'i 1, Vote for This Safeguard A MEASURE on the November ballot which deserves support and adoption ment 'specifying exclusive . vehicle", taxes. This is one the people by the legislative ' argument -which appears in wntten.-by Senator Marshall This amendment makes permanent a sound principle which has been upheld in Oregon against repeated at tempts to break it down. That principle is that money collected - from motorists through the gasoline tax and other inotor vehicles taxes shall be spent exclusively for roadsiand highways and closely related purposes. The amendment forbids diversion way purposes. That.is the exclusive effect of the measure. It does not affect the needs of the cities adversely, for there is nothing in it that prohibits use of the motor vehicle and gas tax funds for maintenance, construction or re pair of city streets, or even traffic policing of the streets. The League of Oregon Cities has endorsed it. If you are a motorist, and pay taxes for the privilege of driving, you have every right to insist that these taxes be spent for highway purposes. This amendment pro tects you in that right. Through many years, it has been necessary to fight off pressure groups which have cast longing eyes on the Oregon.; motor vehicle money. In the legislature several years, ago, 30 bills were introduced to take money from the highway funds and use it for other purposes. Pas sage of this amendment would put an end to this sort of thing,,, and protect the highway funds for their just use in: improving the facilities for motoring and related purposes. . Recently, Governor Sprague questioned the advisabil ity o adoption of the anti-diversion measure, on the grounds that all of the state's resources might be needed in the;' event of an extreme emergency. We have con sideredvttais objection, and we believe the point is well covered; by Dr. E. B. McDaniel, president of the Oregon State VMotpr association, as follows: "If: -hreon faces from jivar conditions or from prevejjiea .irora using nignway funds or any other state funds' to meet the emergency, even though voters adopt Con frtitutiosal Amendment 304, the Good Roads Amendment. . This? statement is emphasized because of some fallacious reports tha t-the Amendment would freeze road money in ease of emergencies.' "Our state law provides a broad authorization which per nuts surplus funds, raised for one purpose to be loaned not only to the general fund but also to other boards or depart ments. "If, after the adoption of the Good Roads Amendment, sur plus funds should be collected under that Amendment, tha surplus could be loaned to any other fund or funds in which there would not be sufficient money to meet its obligation. "The Good Roads Amendment does not prevent that prac tice. It-is aimed to prevent a permanent diversion of moneys collected for highway purpose to other purposes. It is design ed to assure that funds raised through motor vehicle taxes be not used as a source of revenue for general political or legisla tive purposes not related to highway improvement. "In case of an emergency there is no doubt but what surplus funds available in any board or commission bank account could be made available to the state within a very few hours. In fact, it could be done simultaneously with a decision to this effect by the Board of Control." After the war is over, there will be tremendous need for highway construction. We who live in the wirln nnn spaces know the vital importance of highways to our economic weiiare. The defeat of this amendment would be a blow to the principle for which we have long fought. It would be interpreted as meaning that the people of Oregon do not want the highway funds safeguarded. The raid ers would take heart, and it would be more difficult than ever to fight them off. We strongly recommend a vote for this amendment The number is 804 X YES.

On the morning of that day, Senate Republican Leader Mc Nary approached Senate Demo cratic Leader Barkley, pointed out that on the previous evening President Roosevelt had said that draft of 18 and 19-year-old youths would be necessary, and asked if this would come before the election. Barkley answered "No." MORE HQ'S Later that morning, a ranking house democrat visited the office of Speaker Rayburn, put the same question to him and re ceived the same answer "No." Shortly before noon, the mem bers of the house military affairs comminee, wmcn was in session, put the identical question to Rep resentative Andrew May, of Ken- tucKy, committee chairman, and got an identical answer "No." Yet it is a matter of record that at 1:30 that afternoon, Speaker Rayburn suddenly sum moned reporters to his office and, with May joining in the statement, announced that lead ership had decided to start hear ings on an 18-19 draft bill the following day, and pass it by Saturday.

Phone 4153 skins has been the complaint tnat "congress never does any' thing." Wnen the house met at noon last Tuesday, Rayburn and Mc Cormack compared notes on the draft question. Both discovered that the other had talked to sev eral members who were willing to face this issue before the elec tions. Within the space of a few min utes they came to a decision. They would sound out members of the military affairs committee, to see if they would support a bold stroke to place congress squarely on its own feet. Committee Chairman May was summoned and told that there was no reason to wait for a 'direct request on congress flom. President Roosevelt to lower the draft age congress should take the initiative and take it before election day, not after it, aaa PRESS SUMMONED Would he agree to start hear ings the next morning, Wednes day, report the bill two days later for house passage Satur day? By 1:15 all key members of the committee had been queried, with only a few dissenting to the plan. May moved over on the side of Rayburn and McCor mack. Speaker Rayburn personally hunted down House Republican Leader Joseph Martin Jr., and told him the strategy. Martin agreed. Rayburn directed a sec retary to summon the press. ' ruteen minutes later the na tion had the news that congress had decided to do its own pitch ing on the draft issue. Many members of congress felt that the president had thrown them a "curve" when he included his teen-age draft statement in his fireside chat. Truth is that this draft ques tion nad been one of the most ticklish subjects in Washington for months. Until Mr. Roosevelt broke the ice with his broadcast to the nation, there had been a parade of callers to the White House arguing furiously both pro and con. As far back as last March Gen eral George C. MarshalL army chief of staff, had urged the draft of 18 and 19-year-old boys. By June he was demanding it PRO AND CON At the same time. Secretary of War Stimson was taking every T opportunity at his press confer ences lo reaxe statements sup porting such a step. On the other hand, members of congress, both democrats and republicans, were wary of the isr sue, and they wore a path to the White House demanding that the president not request such legis lation until the elections had been decided. As late as the Thursday preceding Mr. Roose velt's broadcast on Monday, the president had heard a prominent congressional leader Insist that the subject be left dormant for at least another month. As a matter of fact, Mr. Roosevelt's decision to tell the nation that draft of 18 and 19-year-old boys would be neces sary; came as a complete sur prise to congress, and without consultation with members of that body. m FDR WANTED SENTIMENT The feeling among congress men that the president had thrown them a "curve" arose out of the fact that since early Sep tember the White House had blocked a letter from Secretary of War Stimson endorsing the Gurney-Wadsworth 18-19 draft bill. This measure was introduced by two republicans Senator Chan Gurney of South Dakota in the upper branch and Rep. James W. Wadsworth of New York in the lower house more than a month before Mr. Roose velt spoke. In each case the military af fairs committees of the senate and house immediately wrote the war department asking for an opinion. Stimson prepared a re ply at once and it was a com plete endorsement of the two companion bills. However, for the past four years It has been an ironclad rule that a department head must f&tal -J 'rom where I sit Joe Doirt ever argne with Grandma Hoskias abont American hiatory nnleH ton know what yon're talk-' ing abont.
