Unfortunately, large numbers have paid little atten tion to it. We have an idea that the vote will be distress ingly small which is a pity in these days when our men are fighting all over the world for the American way of liv ing, which includes the right' of every person to have his say about bow he is to be governed. . Mavbe we have been think ing too much about our rights EPLEY and too little about our responsibilities. It is pretty sound doctrine in these days that spend ing the amount of time necessary to understand the issues involved at elections and then to go and vote is a distinct responsibility. Anyway, this is a short, simple election, and results should be known quickly Friday night. ' a a Building Fund THE two measures on the state ballot were referred to the people by the legislature. " , Here is the title of the first measure: ' BILL AUTHORIZING TAX LEVY FOR STATE BUILDING FUND Purpose: Levies tax for two yean outside limitation fixed by Section 11. Article XL Oregon constitution of $500,000 annually, creating state building fund of $10,000,000, to be offset by income . taxes; appropriating $6,000,000 for the con struction, alteration and repair of buildings required for state Institutions under the juris diction of the state board of control, and for furnishing and equipping such buildings; ap propriating S4.000.000 for the construction, alteration and repair of buildings required for institutions under the jurisdiction of state board of higher education; and for furnishing and equipping such buildings; continuing each appropriation until . expended. What is proposed is, authorization for a $10, 000,000 property levy, which in -turn will be wiped out by income. .tax reserves which are already on hand. No extra money is .asked, but rather authorization for spending 'money already on, hand for needed state buildings. It is a measure that should be passed. '' Cigarette Tax ' HERE the ' title "of the s e c b id" state measure: ' ; - ." ; BILL AUTHORIZING CIGARETTE. TAX" TO SUPPORT PUBLIC SCHOOLS Purpose: Levies tax of one-tenth of one cent on every; cigarette sold, offered for sale or given away; ; requires dealers to affix stamps purchased from, the state tax commission on all cigar ' ettes and cigarette-vending machines; provides for segregation of stocks In Interstate busi ness; directs administration and enforcement , of the act and provides penalties for viola tions; prescribes procedure for the coniisca ... tion. sales and release of seised cigarettes And vehicles; transfers all moneys in excess of $5000 over administrative expanses to the state public school assistance fund; and directs distribution thereof, This is a cigarette tax' of 2 ctnls a pack (20 cigarettes) to provide ' additional money for public schools. It has the virtue of being a means of raising money for a worthy cause without' adding to the. heavy burden on prop erty.. It vhas the drawback of being a dis criminatory tax on one specific item. City Titles THIS is1 the title of the first city measure: Shall Section 64 of the Charter of the City of Klamath Falls, Oregon, which per tains to the filling of vacancies in the office of councilman or other elective offices be repealed.' thereby allowing such vacancies to be filled as provided by the statutes of the State .of . Oregon. Why don't they say: exactly what they mean In-ballot' titles? This one, at any rate, means that if the measure passes, vacancies in elective city offices will be filled by appointment by the mayor. At present, they are filled by special elections. -. The appointments will hold good until the next election. It's a reasonable, economical way of filling vacancies, and the measure should pass. Here is the title of the second amendment on the city ballot: ! Shall Klamath Falls. Oregon, acquire from the United States Government, a sewage and . drainage system, costing approximately $160. 000.00 by paying one-tenth the cost of con struction; levy a tax of one mill upon each dollar of taxable property for two tax budget years, one beginning July 1. 1945, the other ' July 1. 1946: create sinking fund with revenue from said levy to purchase said property: authorise borrowing for immediate payment and paying loan, with interest thereon not . over four per cent a year for three years from sinking fund;' and amending the city charter to meet levy, hereby, authorised. This measure if passed will give the city $19,000 to use' as its part in a proposed sewage project to service the military housing projects and adjacent private property. in the eastern part of the city. The federal government will be expected to participate heavily in financing the measure. The deal between the govern ment and the city has not been concluded, but this measure offers opportunity for the city to get its share of the money and to be ready if the plan can be worked out. We will vote for it. ' ' Title of the last city measure: " Shall Klamath Falls, Oregon, acquire prop erty and construct and equip alone, or jointly with Klamath County, Oregon; a jail costing Klamath. Falls approximately $50,000.00; levy -a tax of one and one-fourth mills upon each dollar of taxable property for three tax budget years, beginning July i, 1945, and ending June 30, 1948; revenue therefrom to go into a "Jail Construction Fund," already created: authorise borrowing for cost of im mediate construction of jail and paying loan with interest thereon of not over four per cent a year for four years, from "Jail Con struction Fund," and' amending City Charter to meet "levy' hereby authorised. ' i . This measure will, provide about $36,000 as part of the city's share of a city-county jail project. Klamath' county is putting up $100,000 'jfor the $190,000 project, and the city should i provide now for its share, ; We heartily rccom i ;mchd the measure. Market Quotations NTTW YORK.

The first ularm was sounded at 4:17 p. m. to a two-story vacant garage at Oregon. The building was com. pletely destroyed by me lire, and the owners have not yet been located. The second and third calls were received simultaneously at 4:25 p. m. One was sounded from 511 Roosevelt to an empty house. By the time the fire trucks arrived at the scene of the blaze, the building was a total loss. Its owners are also unknown, although it is be lieved that they are out of town. Authorities revealed that the blaze was set by some young children who were cither play ing with matches or smoking. A great deal of damage has been caused in this way, firemen said, and everyone is warned not to be careless during the not weather, when fires are so easily started. Children have been seen to throw wood . matches down on the ground to hear them explode, and serious dam age has been caused as a result. The other call, which was re ceived at the fire department at 4:25, was at the corner of 7th and Main for a fire in the motor of a 1937 Ford two-door car, be longing to Anthony Molinari. By the time the truck had arrived, the fire had been extinguished by three servicemen, and no aamage was caused, ; .. .
