HASTY RESOLUTIONS
ARE DEPRECATED

(From the Portland Evening Telegram)
Hood Rivers county commissioners
have locked horns with the state high.
way commission over that part of the
Columbia river highway in that county.
The state highway commission thinks
the county should be responsible for
the upkeep of the highway and the
county thinks not.
The Pine Grove grange passesd reso-
lutiOns asking the county court to noti-
fly the state commission that il all
other means fail to bring the desired
state aid, the road shall be closed to
public travel during the summer. The
grangers who adopted these resolu-
tions, look upon the Columbia river
highway as 'Portland's side show"
and object to being taxed for its main
tenance.
This is very narrow and short
sighted view and fortunately for the
sta te as whole is not widespread.
even in Hood River county. On the
other hand, this great highway. con.
Meeting as it will the Willamette Valley
with Eastern Oregon, is one of the
most important of roads to the whole
state, and there should be no question
of its being entitled to state aid, out.

THE SHORT STORY

If it were not for the copious illus

advertising matter, the weeklies ant
monthlies would be very poor invest
ments In all classes of reading mat
ter, especially in the cheaper mag
azlDes, there is a marked falling off
in quality, especially in the short
story.
The deterioration of the short story
has been commented upon for more
than decade, but instead of an i'm
provement in the output, the makers
of this form of literature seem to be
growing steadily less skilful
One wonders whether the movies"
have not had an adverse effect upon
the pursuit of the literary art.
The stories in dozen current mag
azines read as if they had been ori-
ginally drafted for movie" scenarios,
and, upon rejection, had been filled out
just enough to make them pass mus
ter as stories There is as little CO.
herence of plot as in most movie"
narratives; as little regard for the
development of character or the
truthfulness of motive; and as little
respect for the probabilities in regard
to geography, dress, and department
Transition is a lost art; the prepare

and attention to such details as SEN

Increasing Cost of Gasoline
Is Blamed On Standard Oil

Washington, D. c. = The Federal
Trade commission concluded Wednes-
day its investigation of the rise of
gasoline prices, ending a two days
hearing after representatives of Stand
ard Oil and various Independent COM
panies had given divergent explsna-
tions of the present situation in the
industry. A report based on the
hearings and on the results of weeks
of investigation by the commission's
agents, will be made public soon and
will be transmitted to congress in
response to resolution asking for an
inquiry.
The independent jobbers and refners
who appeared before the commission
were virtually unanimous in placing
responsibility for the increases on the
Standard Oil companies. who, they
charged, had refused to compete and
fixed prices. Standard Oil represent
atives replied to the charges but die
not enter into an explanation of the
elements behind the soaring cost Of
gasoline to consumers.
