THE BIG PORTLAND IDEA.

The Oregonan is still contending for wood shipbuild
ing in Oregon backed up by government subsidies 1t
takes the Capital Journal to task for insisting that the
industry should be put on permanent peacetme basis
that vessels may be webut and turned out at reason
able cost Of course we do not know that these boats
are costing quadruple their peacetme value because no
official figures are available and is quite certain that
every effort will be made by all concerned to keep these
things from public scrutiny. We believe, however that
it is conservative estimate to say that vessel worth
$150000 before the costs the government $6OOO0O
now and that the former better in all respects and
seaworthy. 1t has been to the advantage OF the
spectators who rushed into the shpbuldng business at
Portland and other coast points with desire to get rich
while helping to save the country to boost the cost since
they received 10 per cent over and above cost from the
government 1t is this arrangement that the Oregonlan
contends should be continued for the benefit OF Portland
and the surrounding territory 1t would indeed be
truly nice permanent graft for those who are in on it.
The Oregonian ustfes it's stand for the permanency
of wooden ship subsidies on the ground that
Portland needs them and that other Oregon towns receive
indirect benefit from them Therefore all should stand IN
and pull the wires to keep the golden stream flowing from
the national treasury 1t not at all enthusiastic about
the Capital Journals suggestion that the industry be
financed by Portland capital and placed on legitimate

Industries must in the normal times of peace.
Furthermore, the big Portland idea is uppermost in
the Oregonans editorials on this subje Salem and
other towns should be content with the occasional dollar
that comes their way from industries located in Portland

Committee on Public Information
Appointed.

A committee ON public information
concerning matters of interest to the
taxpayers of school district No. "a, Sa
lem, Oregon, in connection with the
coming election on Monday, Dec. 80, on
the school budget, was appointed by a
group of business men who met Thurs
day at the Commercial club.
A series of articles will appear over
the names of the committee ON public
information for the purpose of getting
at the truth and setting forth facts on
which all can rely.
Question-Why is it necessary to call
an election to pass the school budget
Answer-For two reasons within the
law. ~ Elections are requ4.-7 by
law to pass a budget for school pur
poses. (2) The increase in this budget
is in excess of per cent and the propo.
sition must be voted upon as coming
under the per cent limitation law.
Q,-How much is the actual increase
in taxes asked for in the school budget
of this year7
A.-Ist year $S0,OoO.OO was raised
from taxes for the support of the Sa-
lem public schools. This year the
amount is to be $93, ,29S.54, an increase
of $13,298.54.
Q.--Why was it necessary TO mako
such an increased
A.-Salaries increased by $5971.59
the purchase of the Holman property
costing $25000, and the decrease of in
come on the census amounting to s2780
accounts for practically all of the in
crease. Decreased income on account
of delinquent taxes accounts for the
balance.
Q-Why was it necessary to increase
salariesf
A.-Everybody is familiar with tho
causes which produced higher wages in
every walk of life. There is not
business firm which has not increased

schools it was necessary to raise sal
aries of teachers to meet competition
from other schools, and other probes
sions. Janitor help was more expensiv,
On account of scarcity of labor. Wa
conditions account for all Of this.
Q.-Why did the decrease in tn, drr
sus enumeration cause an increase il
taxes.
A.-Because the schools receive a IL,

county school funds for each child De
tween the ages of 4 and 20 years, enum

must be made up from taxes.
Q.-Why purchase the Holman prop
erty at this timeF
A.-This property adjoins the high
school property on the south on High
street.. This property will be needed
for school purposes and if not bought
when the opportunity is presented the
school board faces the probability VI
paying much higher price for it in the
future.
Q.-Was the Holman property a good
buy?
A.-Yes, without question. The price
was $3250. The property is assessed at
$3400, which is only 6S per cent of itr
real value, $4,000. School boards in the
past have negotiated for this piece at
a higher figure than the one at which
this board bought it. For school pur-
poses it is worth the money paid for it
Q.-If the budget fails to carry this
time, how will the school operatei
A.-School district "a Ealem, Oregon
can borrow money up to $100,000.00
which it will do. Interest will cost the

a case is on record where it operated
this way.
Q.-ls it to the taxpayers intrest to
vote down this budgets
A.-No. They will be relieved of any
tax this year for school purposes, but
next year the tax will be more than
double. By voting down this budget
the taxpayers are putting upon them
selves the paying of $4,000 or $1,000 in

SPANISH INFLUENZA WHAT TITS
ANDHOW IT SHOULD Be TREATED
Nothing New-Simply The Old Grip, Or La Grippe That
Was Epidemic In 1SS9-9O, Only Then 1t Came From
Russia By Way OF France And This Time BY Way Of
Spain.
EXTERNAL APPLICATIONS

In order to stimulate the lining Of
the air passages to throw off the grip
germs, to aid in loosening the phlegm
and keeping the air passgcs open, thus
making the breathing easier, Vick g
VapoRub will be found effective. Hot,
wet towels should be applied over the
throat. chest and back between the
shoulder blades to open the pores. Then
Vapo-Rub should be rubbed in over
the parts until the skin is red, spread
on thickly and covered with two thick
nesses of hot flannel cloths. Leave the
clothing loose around the neck as the
heat of the body liberates the ingre-
dents in the form of vapors. These
vapors, inhaled with each breath, car
ry the medication directly to the parts
affected. At the same time, VapoRub
is absorbed through and stimulates the
skin, attracting the blood to the sur
face and thus aids in relieving the con-
gestion within.
HOW TO AVOID THE DISEASE
Evidence seems to prove that this is
germ disease, spread principally by
human contact. chiefly through cough
ing, sneezing or splitting. So avoid per-
sons having colds--which means avoid
ing crowds-eommon drinking cups,
roller towels, etc. Keep up your bodily
strength by plenty Of exercise in the
open air, and good food.
KEEP FREE FROM COLDS
Above all, keep free from colds, as
colds irritate the lining of tie. air pas
sages and render them much better
breeding places for the germs. Use
Viek s VapoRub at the very first sign
of cold. For head cold, melt a lit
tie in spoon and inhaie the vapors,
or better still. use VapoRub in a BEN
zoin steam kettle. If this is not avail
able, use an ordinary tea kettle. FIJI
half full Of boiling water, put in half
a teaspoon of VapoRub from time to
time-keep the kettle just slowly boil
ing, and inhale the steam arising.
NOTE: Vick's VapoRub is the dis
covery of North Carolita druggist,
who found how to combine, in salye
form, Menthol and Campho- with such
essential oils as Eucalyptus. Thyme,
Cubebs. cts, SO that when the salve is
applied to the body heat, these ingre-
dients are liberated in the form of va
pors
VapoRub is comparatively new in
New York, New England and a few
western states, where it is just now
being introduced. In other sections Of
the country, however, it is the stan
dard home remedy in over a million
homes fer all forms of cold troubles
more than six million jars were sold
last year.
It is particularly recommended for

be used as freely as desired without
the slightest harmful effects. vapo-

CHOCOLATE And COCOA
The Soldiers Fayorites.

Should consumers pay more for Choe-
olate and Cocoa if the threatened short
age af raw material is artificially cre-
atedf
Peculiar conditions exist today in the
Cocoa and Chocolate industry.
AL during the war Cocoa and Choco-
late have been in the highest favor and
justly SO on account of their great food
value, and the boys in all branches Of
the service have consumed enormous
quantities.
In spite of numerous difficulties.
chief among them the shortage of SUI
gar, manufacturers prices on their
standard brands of Cocoa and Chocolate
have not been advanced
Now, owing to a regulation that the
manufacturers shall be allowed to pur-
chase only GA per cent Of their normal
amount of raw cocoa, it would seem
that an advance in prices would be
necessary if this GA per cent restriction
should be allowed to remain in force
long enough to create an artificial short
age.
The men in uniform on their return
homo would find themselves obliged to
pay more for their favorite ccnfection
than they did abroad.
This is in face of the allegation that
there are many vessels in United States
ports waiting only for the guarantees
of return eargoes, to sail for South Am
erica where there is an abundance of
cocoa awaiting shipment if our manu-
facturers are only allowed to buy it.

Go to Bed and Stay Quiet-Take a
Laxative-Eat Plenty of Nourishing
Food-Keep Up Your strength-Na-
ture is the Only Cure"
ALWAYS CALL A DOCTOR
NO OCCASION FOR PANIC

Spanish influenza, which appeared in
Spain in May, has all the appearance
of grip or la grippe, which has swept
over the world in numerous epidemics
as far back as history runs Hippoc-
rates refers to an epidemic in Alp B.
c., which is regarded by many to have
been influenza. Every century has had
its attacks. Beginning with 1881, this
country has had five epidemics, the
last in 1SS9-90.
There is no occasion for panic--in-
fluenza itself has very low percent
age of fatalities over one death
out of every four hundred eases, ac-
cording to the N. G. Board Of Health.
The chief danger lies in complications
arising, attacking principally patients
in run down condition-those who
don 7 go to bed soon enough, or those
who get up too early.
THE SYMPTOMS
Grip or influenza, as it is now call
ed, usually begins with chill follow
ed by aching, feverishness and some
times nausea and dizziness and a gen
eral feeling of weakness and depres-
sion. The temperature is from 100 to
l04, and the fever usually lasts from
three to five days. The germs attack
the mucous membrane, or lining of the
air pssages-nose, throat and bronchial
tubes-there is usually hard cough,
especially bad at night, often times a
sore throat or tonsilitis, and frequently
all the appearances Of severe cold.
THE TREATMENT
Go to bed at the first symptoms, not
only for your own sake, but to avoid
spreading the disease to cthers-take
a purgative, eat plenty os nourishing
foed, remain perfectly quiet and don t
worry. Quinine, Asperin or Dover's
Powder, etc, may be administered by
the physicians, directions to relieve the
aching. But there is no cure or spe-
eific for influenza-the disease must
run its course, but nature herself will
throw off the attack if only you keep
up your strength. The chief danger
lies in the complications which may
arise. Influenza 50 weakens the bodily
resistance that there is danger of
pneumonia or bronchitis developing
and sometimes inflammation of the
middle ear, or heart affections. For
these reasons, it is very important that
the patient remain in bed until his
strength returns-stay in bed at least
two days or more after the fever has
left You, or if you are over so or not
strong stay in bed four days or more,
according to the severity of the attack.
