Editorial Snap Shots ------- 0------- If anyone in Tillamook county I b opposed to the Roosevelt Highway, we would ask that they send us the reasons why they are opposed to it. ------ o------ Should the Roosevelt Highway measure carry the Little Nestucca Valley will be right in it, for that will be the natural route, Then see the Little Nestuccaites swell up and teel proud. ------- o —— How funny, as well as misleading. Two first page liners in the Oregon ian on Tuesday reads 'Peace discus sion is nearing close” and "Peace treaty now further away than ever.” - ■ o------- Flivver planes that will travel 50 miles an hour are predicted to cost »1250. As the crow flies it will take only one hour to reach Portland. And we are optomistic enough to believe that inside of a few years a good many persons will be traveling be- tween Portland and Tillamook in that way. ------- o------- The road between Wheeler and Brighton is to be planked. This will do for a make shift. shift, but the snap shot man hopes to see the south side of Nehalem bay with a hard surfaced road, and we are not going to be satisfied until that is an accomplish ed fact. The large amount of lumber industry and travel justifies the road being hard surfaced as soon as pos sible. A delegation waited on the County Court from the Little Nestucea this week, and came I to an under standing about the Arstill cut off im provement and the bounding of the county. A little misunderstanding has existed between the people of the Little Nestucca and the County Court, but after the situation and the financial affairs of the county were explained and what was intended to be done if the county was bonded the delegation went away perfectly satisfied. The Little Nestuccaltes are wanting the road paved from Hebo to the dock, about five miles, which should be done as soon as pos sible. for there is heavy travel in that vicinity. ------ o------ Some of our citizens wonder why the saw mill whistle is blown so long and shrill in the morning, making enough noise to wake the dead. It I b like this, when the boys down at the saw mill worked ten hours a day it it look but three short blasts of the whistle to get them up In the morn ing. It is different under the eight hour system. What the citizens hear in the morning is simply a re frain of what their wives say: "We can't get ’em up-- we cun't get 'em up; the sons of guns the sons of guns, we can't get 'em up in the morning” There Is always two sides to an argument, for this is what the citIsens say when they are aroused by the long blasts of the whistle: "The son of a gun the son of a gun; who wakes us up -who wakes us up; so early, early in the morning." ------ o.. — will be short timers payable in five years, the rate of interest will be 3% for non-taxable bonds and 41a for taxable bonds. Watch the Headlight for the next few weeks and every body get the buy a Victory Loan spirit. - ■ o------- State Senator T. B. Handley, Coun ty Judge A. M. Hare and Commis sioner H. V. Alley had an interview with the State Highway Commission in Poraland last week, which is thought with satisfactory results. But into a nutshell this is what was accomplished: The State Highway Commission will call for bids for ten miles of hard surfaced road, five miles norts and five south of this city, right away; will call for bids fon an additional five miles south of this city at a later date, to carry out the provisions of the 1917 law which provided for the building of 20 miles of hard surfaced road or more south of Tillamok City; and with further co-operation with the county in building more hard surfaced roads in the county, especially in the north part of the county, when Tillamook county is in a position with bond money to co-operate with the State Highway Commission. The State Highway Commission will visit Till amook County as soon as it can do so by auto, when further work will be discussed and planned, not only for this year but for next year as well. Owing to the short season it is thought that about 15 miles of hard surfacing can be done this year, but more will be put down if possible and when the county is prepared to con struct the road bed. A contract will be let on the 15th of the month for the first five miles south of this city, and bids will be called for for the other work as soon as possible. ------- o------- There appears to be an impression that the county will not have to bond in co-operating with the State High way Commission in building hard surfaced roads in Tillamook County. We want to call the attention of the people to the fact that the last coun ty budget did not provide for work of that description, consequently the County Court has no money avail uble to co-operate with the Stute Highway Commission. The pay as you go advocates want a special road tax of ten mills for the next two or three years, so as to prevent bond ing. The County has to do one of two things to provide the money, and should both fall, then the state money that is proposed to be expend ed In Tillamook county the next two or three years will to a large extent go to some other county. That is the exact situation and should not be overlooked. We are willing to admit ihat there is merit in paying as you go if that can be done, and the peo- pie of the county would agree to It, but there is this difficulty. The county Is divided into three road dis-, trlcts, and should one of the districts fail to vote for a special ten mill road tax it would leave the other road district in a predicament, An- other thing, We are opposed to any increase in taxation. It is high enough, and perhaps a little too high now, and if possible. should be low- ered. Therefore, It is our opinion thut bonding is the best solution, Even in the matter of bonding the money raised for that purpose should not be used for any other pur pose than to co-operate with the State Highway Commission In hard surfacing the roads. The snap shot mun is going to be a sticker on that point, for If the bond money I» dl- erted to other and new road project«, the paved highway through the county will be delayed and the peo pie will be disappointed. The build ing of bridges, etc., should be taken from the regular road fund. First Signs of Repentance. ------ o------ ing from the general fund. In that way the burden is borne by those , best able to pay. It is also borne by all and not by a few. The wide dis- tribution of the cost through that process makes it very light on every body. It seems an entirely proper plan. •The up-state newspaper publish- ers are a highly effective factor in raising the loan quotas. Their ad- vertising space and their circulation is all they have to sell. White paper costs them heavily. It costs them money to set in type the news stories which they publish free in creating interest in the loan. 'The average up-state news paper man is the packhorse of the commun ity. When free things are to be done for the public welfare the commun ity turns to him. In all public mat ters he is the man who pays the printer th^t sets the type that car ries the free publicity. So many such things come along in the course of a year that the money he pays out for white paper, composition on gratis activities becomes a large factor in the overhead of his business and a very heavy burden. "In all past loans the newspaper men have done their bit, and done it effectively and sacrificingly. They will do it again, and, with their com bined power, will be a big factor in making Oregon first. ■’But when it comes to the use of their advertising space for the Vic tory loan the public should draw the line—it should expect to pay them fully for it, and there could scarcely be a more equitable way than the Washington county plan in which the county court supplies necessary funds.” Thiz Will Be Going Some. The announcement is made by Henry Ford that he will employ 200- 000 men in manufacturing his new I »300 automobile. A careful estimate of the number of automobiles at »300 each the labor of 200,000 men would produce, taking Into account the marketing, material and overhead | cost, is three million a year, which indicates either that the new flivver I will have to sell pretty rapidly in a market already pretty well occupied, or that Mr. Ford's mathematics is slightly imagnative al times. .

Now the slogan must be "Made in U. S. A.," and men, women and children should join the big industrial army in carrying this slogan to every city, town and hamlet, so that American goods will be pre-eminent and the only goods recognized by the loyal people of the United States. The masses have enjoyed nages unprecedented in the history of the world. They should not be called up on to suffer a lower wage, and if the people will back up the manufactur ers in firmly establishing the "Made in U. S.
