FIFTEEN BILLIONS SAVED.

If a penny saved is a penny earned so is million
dollars. The American people, then, have just made ff
teen billions That is the amount voted back into the
treasury by congress out of the $780, approprat
ed last year for expenses. 1t represents saving
made possible by the cessation Of hosties far earlier
than was expected.
If this sum as whole means little it is worth re-
ducing to understandable terms There roughly 100,
100000 people in the country who have to help pay for
the directly or indirectly This 500O0000O0 means
$3.50 apiece for every man. and child in America
Counting five to family it means that the average AM
ercan family saved right off, $3.50 by the signing of the
armistice last November
This does not represent the entire savings by any
means II the war had continued as most of us expect
ed until the end of this year, there would have been many
billions to pay and above the appropriations
that are still to be made for winding things up There is
the further saving involved in lower prices from
than would have prevailed during the proongaon period
One thousand dollars per family would hardly cover the
total saving.
There has not been much thought of such material
considerations The rejoicing has bene mostly inspired by
the knowledge that the boodshed ended and the boys
in France destined to come home soon, safe and
sound. Still it gives every comfortable feeling to
realize that every family in the land made more than
$1,000 without knowing it on November H. 1918.
It was the courageous fighting of boys that saved
that money Let us not forget it as they come home

EFFICIENT AND ECONOMICAL GRAM.

But the labor commissioner holds on--probably be-

FIRST HIGHER PAY
BILL PASSES HOUSE
Joint Roads Committee
Agrees On Half Cent Tax
On Gallon Distillate.

| The boys lined up at the state house
in favor of salary grabbing won their
first round Monday when the house vot-
ed to give J. A. Churchill, state super
intendent Of schools, an increase of
5000 a year. The bill had been put III
originally asking that Mr.. Churchill be
given $4500 but the salary committee
recommended $4,000. His present salary
is $4,000 a year.
AS this was the test as to whether
the increase salaries of state officials
would be smooth shedding, the big ora
torical spell binders of the house got
behind the Chuchill bill with their
heavy artillery.
Smith of Baker-the former home Of
Mr.. Churchill-spoke most emphatical-
ly in favor of the additional salary. He
thought $4,000 was mere pittance,
claiming that sheepherders out in his
part of the state were being paid from
1880 to $500 year.
Hughes of Marion spoke against the
raise saying that Mr. Churchill knew
what the position paid when he ran for
the office. Gallagher came out heavy
for the advance in salary bringing in
the cry of educating the children. Mrs
Alexander of The Dalles lined up with
those in favor Of voting higher salaries
Looney of Msrion county was the on
ly delegate from Marion who favored
the increase in salary. Martin was abb
sent when the vote was taken and
Weeks, Hughes snd Speaker Seymour
Jones voted against the salary raise.
A tax of one cent gallon on gaso'
line and one-half sent gallon on di-
tillate was agreed upon last evening at
the joint roads and highway commit
tees st meeting held last evening.
With their recommendation, the bill
will probably pass and become law.
There was some opposition to the tax
of one-half cent gallon on distillste
as this will fall mostly on farmers, es-
peeially in the eastern part of the state.
As the emergency clause is being
tackled on to many bills, mostly to pre-
vent referendum it was finally agreed
after considerable debate tat the emer
gency should be attached to the gaso-
line bill. With the emergency attached
the bill will become a law as soon as
passed by the house and senate and sign
ed bv the governor.
