Up-to-the- Times Magazine takes a
broad view of the road question, say
ing: GOOD roads tighten the burden
of traffic, reduce the cost of living,
raise the value of farm lands, build up
the church and school, Danish the isola-
tion of rural life and spread prosper
rity, intelligence and social advantages
through the length and breadth Of the
land. Success to Oregon in her at
tempt to secure six million dollar good
roads bond issue, and which is to be
voted on June 4th. In voting public
funds for the construction of an intel
ligent system Of good roads Oregon
takes the right viewpoint. Highways
are not private property nor are they
intended for any particular class, but
they are for the welfare and conven-
ience Of all the people. They benefit
all the people and all property in the
state, hence every one should contrib
ute towards their construction and
maintenance. That the money for
such work should be secured from a
bond issue extending over long term
of years, is something that none can
very well question. 1t is good to know
that the Oregon bond issue proposes
among other things to hard surface
two trunk roads leading through Una
tilla county, one coming by way of
Umatilla, Hermiston, Stanfeld, Echo
and Pendleton and on up the river to
Union and Baker counties, and the
other coming via Heppner, Vincent,
Pilot Rock and Pendleton through
Adams, Athena, Weston, Milton and
Freewater to the state line.

port for service. For example, he will
be authorized to select the number of
men required from between u and 25
years. If the emergency should be
pressing he can order selection of men
between 26 and 30 years, between 81
and 36 years and between 36 and 40
years. The chances are that the older
men will not be called at all, as the re-
suit would be to disorganize industry
and. agriculture. The President and
his advisers realize that the first duty
resting upon the United States is to
supply food and other necessities to
the allies. This means that the
farmers, the factory hands, shipbuild-
ing and railroad hands, among others,
must be affected as little as possible
in the application of the co inscription
scheme.

The general conception of the selec-
tive military draft system as provided
by the bill which was passed by Con-
gress indicates that the armies to be
raised by the United States will be
created from "classes" which, when
called, will report for services. What
ever the maximum age fixed it is not
intended by the men who will make up
the conferees to permit call to the
colors Of all those between 2l and 40 in
the country. The provision of the act
will be rewritten so that the President
will be able to create "classes" for re-

Looking the food production problem
square in the face, The Rural Weekly,
st. Paul publication, suggests that
the government should, as war mea-
sure, commander all land that can be
titled or used for grazing, vacant city
lots, ETC., not now used for agricultur al
purposes. Same should be leased to
those who are willing to cultivate them
at normal rental.
The st. Paul paper continues:
"Money and land, however, are not
sufficient for production OF crops.
There is another essential element
necessary to this, and that is labor.
Higher prices for agricultural products
will avail little unless sufficient labor
can be obtained to work the farms, as
there is limit to the amount of work
the farmer and his family can accom-
plsh.
"To make certain that crops will be
actually planted and harvested, the
government should provide an indus
trial army, to be used first of all on
farms, and secondly in the manufacture
of necessities of life and in the trans
portation service.
"This industrial army should be sub
ject to the directions of properly consti-
tuted authorities. All citizens from
the ages of l6 to so years should be
subject to service therein for period
of at least 80 days each year.
During seeding time and harvest all
schools should be closed, thus liberating
pupils of working age to be enrolled
in the industrial army.
"The government should prohibit
speculation in agricultural products.
In addition, the government should
fix maximum and minimum prices for
agricultural products, and the prices SO
fixed should govern each crop; in other
words, farmers should have the assur-
ance that, having produced crop, the
price thereof will be uniform until an
other crop is produced"
