Undoubtedly the Industry's
Crowning Achievement
From your point of view this announcement is
most important.
For herein we set forth the achievement toward
which this company has aimed for the last eight
years.
This achievement in n word is the completion
of our gigantic organization to a point where we
can make and market a complete line of automo
biles under one head.
This means tremendous economies much great
er than ever before.
This nastSG 3 the elimination of all waste, all lost
motion end much greater factory efficiency.
This means an even higher grade of cars at
much more attractive prices. v
All of which means a substantial saving for you
on the next car you buy.
For now and for the first time in the history of
the automobile business we as one single organiza
tion offer the public a full and complete line of
automobiles.
This concentration this greater efficiency this
more effective means of pulling together is going
to set a new standard of low priced high-grade
automobile values.
For we operate on the basis of
one executive organization
one factory management
one purchasing unit
one sales expense
one group of dealers to plan, produce and sell
all Overland, Willys and Willys-Knight models.
Buying power is concentrated. Costs are dis
tributed over all these cars. The savings are
enormous.
As a result we are producing cars of exceptional
quality and marketing them at unusually low
prices.
Every car is built to a rigid standard of per
formance, comfort and appearance.
The new models arc listed in this announcemen t.
They include Overland models from the snappy
comfortable $665 Light Four to the beautiful
Light Six Sedan at $1585.
They include also the big, handsome Willys
Knights from the Four at $1285, to the super
efficient Eight at $1950.
These new models establish price records, value
records and performance records which we believe
will prove to the public conclusively that the vast
economies of vast production are the key note and
manufacturing secret of the greatest value for the
least amount of money.

Some Little Stories and
Gossip of the Legislature t
' It looked for a while as though the
good old custom of having a third house
yould be abandoned, but fortunately
this has been avoided and it will meet
tomorrow night. That some stunts will!
lie pulled oft that will make the legis-!
lators- some of them get uneasy in!
their seats goes without saying. How-1
ver, the story of what was done will'
j rove more interesting than that of
.what may be done.
Representative Hitner believes in
quality for all and special privileges
for none. Speaking on the bill to pro
vide for the cresmtion of unclaimed
bodies at the eastern Oregon hospital
for the insane, he insisted thut the pa
tients of the western Oregon hospital
should be accorded alt the privileges en
Joyed by those of the hospital here. Me
is emiuently correct, and stands now as
the champion of equal rights as well as
suffrage.
Saturday, that Grants Pass prevarica
tor, Updike, had a stranger cornered
near the cigar stand and one who over
beard him say he was engaged in boost
ing his native heath. He ir.d the
stranger's remark aboot the cigarette
bill to say: "Down at 0 rants Pass
We have the cigarette business eorrnled

is as mild as u gin rut, I get a box of

show the legislators what we can do in
that line and to show them besides that
the passing of the cigarette bill will do
no good becuuse cigarettes can be vent
through the mails. Since the beet sugar
industry started at my place someone
discovered that the wirst leaves trim
med from the beets in the summer and
laid away for a while make a cigar
filler that cannot be told on sight from
real tobacco. It is a rich brown and as
a filler it is fine, the trace of sugar in
the leaves gives them a sweet taste
most pleasing and the later leaves make
splendid wrappers. They have the col
or, and a flavor all their own that when
you hnve smoked one you will never for
get. Besides they contain no nicotine
or other deleterious substances and
hence have no bad effects. Why, aft
tt smoking one of these our boys all
swear off on cigarettes, and after three
or four days abandon tobacco in all
forms. It has the same effect so far as
1 can judge on cigar smokers. It is des
tined to be the great anti-tobacco rem
edy and to make (irants Pass and its
cigars famous. 1 think I have one left,
if you will try it."
The stranger would be "delighted to
do so." and then Ppdikc handed him a
mild Havana, and watched the effect.
"Why, suv, this is great," said the
stranger.
"Isn't it," echoed I'pdike, and then
he went inside and got busy trying to
appear to earn his salary.
Hereafter, if the Good bill to tax
church property passes the senate, all
church property except th actual build
ing and the lot on which it stands will
be taxed by the state. The measure
passed the house of representatives Sat
urday night without a dissenting voice.
The measure is deemed necessary to
help swell the fund of state taxes. It
will probably pass the senate with an
easy majority as the opinion seems to be
that no land held by church corpora
tions should be exempt from taxation
except the actual lot and building in
which the services are held. This will

interpretation of the question as pre

His constructive argument began by a
clear presentation of the difference i"
the type of the immigrant today, and
that of s.-veral years ago. This was
accomplished by the aid of a chart, in
which the percentage of immigrants
from north and south Kit rope was pre
SMted, also the per cent of illiterates
in both groups. His next point was to

problem. In this report It was declared
! that the illiterate immigrant has an
; evii effect upon wages, and that he
I works against assimilation.
I'or the negative tllenn .lack was th;
tirst to respond. He admitted the need
of restriction, but argued that the pro
posed remedy was a' fault. His claims
were, that there is no relation between
illiteracy and desirability, that the
' criminal is not the illiterate foreigner,
but the keen educated wanderer. He
also contended that the test would ex
elude too many, and that it could not
be adjusted to the needs of the nation.
. ltesides public opinion is against it, the
test strikes at a man s native opportu
nity not at the roor ot inulesirability.
His chief constructive argument was

I I 'outlawing the argument for the at'
ft rotative Otto Paulus attacked the Se
ine from the political aad social as
pect. He stated that this was a prohlt in
: concerning the nation's welfare and
! not one of charity. The majority of hit
argument showed the result of illiteracy
'upon a democratic form of government
and its bearing upon race suicide. He
'clnimed that the vast influx of lUiter
late immigrants was substituting the
'nation's present stock for an inferior
one.
With the argument that won the de
Jhate Irle made the last constructive
I speech. He attacked the question from
a purely economic view, and as a sab
