M alheur County, Oregon. Entered at the postoffice at Nyssa, Oregon for transm ission through the U nited States Mails, as a second class m atter, u n der the act of M arch 3, 1871#. Protective Legislation A strange development that started several years ago and reached its peak of momentum during the 49th ses sion of the Oregon legislature, might be an indication of why the American people are being led—or driven—clo ser and closer to centralized government. Protective legislation is one of the greatest ;_vljs being forced onto the public and the ^OQ 0 yjng tactics are so strong that pub^- KOOd takes a back seat for the individ ual interests of the few. Political beliefs take no part in this dangerous legislation, in fact, the Republican party which has boasted of its ideals of individual liberty and self-government has among its staunchest supporters, those who demand individual protection rather than leg islation for the overall good. The controversial Saturday bank closing law, defeated by the Oregon senate, was nothing more than a means to “protect” certain individual banks and some chains from competition. The First National Bank of Portland oppos ed the legislation with the sensible argument that its employees enjoy a 40-hour week even while doing bus iness on Saturdays and that the public should be served. At Nyssa, four employees probably would have lost their jobs if the Saturday closing law had been enacted. Proponents of the bill apparently were interested in cutting their payrolls, but they fear the First National’s competition if they choose to close on Saturday while others remain open as a public service. The issue is far from dead. Bankers in various parts of the state are crying because they can’t be protected! Many are using the “union threat,” yet they fail to re veal that hundreds of employees could be fired on the five-day work-week basis, if they v. eu? protected by law. If such tactics continue, w ee1 v newspaper publishers might join and demand legislation to prevent all dailies, semi-weeklies, radio broadcasts ’ I T programs from coming into their areas on days other than those of the publishers’ choice. We doubt the inconsistency of weekly publishers, though, and believe they can accept the friendly competi tion as they have in the past—and profit from that same competition. The Big W elfare Problem Everybody’s got problems! The state welfare commission has a big one. It’s afraid it can’t find enough people to go to work to dish out funds for people out of work! One spokesman in Portland is bemoaning the fact that $8000-a-year jobs in welfare work are going begging, so a subcommittee has been appointed to study recruitment problems. From all indications, the big problem is getting some one to take applications for the various and ever-increas ing types of welfare, thus building up the need for bigger staffs to take care of the bigger relief rolls. Maybe a few “experts” who encourage applicants to use every trick in the book to obtain public funds should be added to the list of unemployed.
