INSTEAD of constituting
reason why Pendleton
should not become the To-
cation for the eastern Oregon
normal school the fact the
state hospital is located here
should be an asset in the COM
ing campaign.
The Eastern Oregon State
Hospital was located here be-
cause on a competitive show
ing Pendleton outclaSSed all
competitors, particularly from
a geographical and transporta-
tion standpoint. This was the
logical place because Of the
saving in travel expense.
The same thing Is true with
reference to the federal court
which has eastern Oregon
headquarters here. 1t Is true
Of the state supreme court
which holds its eastern Oregon
sessions in this city. 1t is true
Of minor federal offices locat-
ed here.
The fact Pendleton has be-
come the assembly place fol
state and federal offices and
institutions for this section Of
the state makes unanswerablt
tribute to Pendleton's match
less location.
Voters who seek to decide
the normal school issue on
basis of real service to the peo
pie will not be unmindful O
this situation.
State favors should not b,
distributed to please this com
munity or that community, bu
to serve the general good.

A OUIETUS ON THE ARMOR
LOBBY

TF it is true as many believe
that considerable Of the
preparedness propaganda
has been due to the activity OF
munition makers and battle
ship builders it is very evident
that congress is not playing the
game Of such people.
Both house and senate have
voted favorably on the prOpo-
sition Of government armor
plant. They did so in the very
face of a tremendous nation
wide campaign by the Bethle-
hem Steel Co. to thwart the
plan. The reason for the ac-
ton was found in the fact the
steel company has for years
charged exorbitant rates for
armor.

~ RESIDENT WILSON has
- announced that he will
give little attention to the
presidential campaign until
congress has finished the i'm
portant work now before it.
In other words business is to
come before politics.
The presidents course is
right of course and it is elicit
ing praise even from some re-
publican papers. The Spring
field Republican says:
Everybody understands that Pres
ident Wilson will be the most import
ant factor in the democratic cam
paign. but there will be general ap-
proval of his desire not to turn to pol
itics until the business Of this con-
gressional session is over. For that
reason Vance Mccormick, chairman
Of the democratic national commit
ttee, has laid aside his tentative
plans for holding the notification
/ ceremonies at the presidents sum-
mer home in New Jersey on August
5. The chief executive Of the coun-
try is under contract with the people
to attend TO his official duties, and
these will be given first place. This
is as il should be, and there should
be no political loss in such a pro-
gram. 1t will be for those who de-
I sire to turn the presidents job oveI
