Portland, Oregon. Feb, 9, 1918.
There never has been time in
the history of the state when the
farmers have had such an opper-
tunity to make money by raising
livestock for meat purposes as at
present. With an aggregate
shortage of over 3, 00O,0 900 meat
animals approximately 300, 900,
eco pounds, in the leading pack
ing center of the United States,
it is certain that for some years
to come there will not only be an
unlimited demand FOR meat ami
mails, but it is also certain that
prices will range high and it is
not impossible that all previous
records may be broken.
1t is a fact that nearly all the
big cattle ranges of the state
have been broken up and that in
only a few locations is itpossible.
to find pastureage for large herds,
but it is also a fact that the av-
erage farm could be made to pro-
duce a larger number of animals
than it is now doiug. With the
big packers and bankers willing,
and anxious to cooperate with
reliable farmers in the state in
stocking farms and ranches, it
would appear that any farmer
who fails to take advantage OF his
opportunities in this direction is
making a big mistake. The pop
ulation of the entire Northwest
is increasing at rapid rate, the
people must be supplied with
meat, and if Oregon ranches
cannot meet the demand it will
certainly. be met by other states,
a large amount of money will be
sent away and the meat industry
of the state damaged to just that
extent. u: III 7

TOO MUCH LABOR REG
ULATION.

The Eight hour corporation
law and the minimum wage
law are proving themselves
boemerangs that strike at
the very people they have
! eel passing to aid. The pur-
pose of the latter was to pro-
stect the wage earning girls
from the power of the en-
plover. Now comes the story
that the law is protecting the
girls out OF tlteirjobs. Fifty
three-percentof Oregon farm
ers employ laborers paying
81, 10000 a year wages. A
law is proposed to bring them
under tie state labor bureau.

Mr.. Franklin 7. Griffith
president of the Portland
Railway Light &rower com
pany, gives following remark
ably fair statement on thi'
question;
"First let me outline my
idea of The relations between
a public service corporation
and the public.
II believe that the public
service corporation should
be entitled to a fair return
on its investment, if it is eff
ficiently managed"
IF it earn more than in
| terest on its investments
through efficient Management
it should not be deprived of
all that surplus, BUT THIS
SURPLUS SHOULD GO
THREE 4WAYS=.TO THE
PUBLIC THE EMPLOYEES
AND THE STOCKHOLM
ERS.
"If, owing to efficient man
agement, the corporation
makes Il profit above the in
trest due for the money in
vested, / believe that this
dividend should be divided
with the public, the employees
and the stockholders of the
corporation, the public re-
ceiving its share either in
added service or in a flat
sum paid into the public
treasury.
"The employees of the COM
pany should receive their re-
turn in cash, not in clubs or
picnics = these are merely a
part of the social service
work of a corporation. :.
"The closer a corporation
of this sort and the public get
together the better for all
because in that
way a solution of these diff
cuIties is reached that is fair
to all concerned. ~~
= II believe that investors
and officials if these corpora
tons who put in their money
and their time and give eff
cient public service should |
be properly rewarded and no
more.
Nov as to the jitney. If
ibis new mode of transpor-
,ation is to be Used in CON-
petition with old method it
must be but under the same
conditions; otherwise the
cannot tell whether or
lot this new service will re-
lily :crve it and carry its due
hare. of the public burden.
