ment growing stronger every day.
the Republicans have been in q
quandary about the treaty plank
in their platform. They cannot
consistently endorse the California
senator's position and at the same
time approve the Lodge reser-
vations. In q sense Mr.. Wilson
made It q bit easier for the Repub-
licans by his pronouncement against
the Lodge reservations. Had he
waited until the Republican con-
vention was over he might have
found the Republicans endorsing
the johnson viewpoint and retreat
ing from the leadership Of Senator
Lodge in order to face the presi-
dent in the campaign with . solid
Republican opposition.
The Republican leaders will be
quick to seize upon the Lodge res
ervations as the basis of their cam
paign. with the hope that Senator
johnson will not repeat the ad-
mission of Senator Knox and point
out that he doesn't want the treaty
even with these reservations. It's
Senator Johnson against whom the
presidents letter to the Oregon
Democrats is leveled for the time
being. Mr.. johnson Just triumphed
in his native state over Mr.. Hoover,
who stood for reservations. The
Oregan newspapers with few ex-
ceptions have favored the League
of Nations from the start. The
Oregon Journal conducted a poll
which showed an overwhelming
sentiment for the treaty without
any reservations whatsoever. So

Not the Last Word.
but before the San Francisco
convention comes around there will
be another procurement from
Mr.. Wilson. The letter to the Ore
gon Democrats is not the last word
nor the kind Of a plank the Dem
ocrats will adopt. They will take
their stand for some reservations,
notably those proposed by Senator
hitchcock and agreed upon by a
majority OF the Democrats and en-
dorsed by Mr.. Wilson himself. On
the face Of it. the letter to the Ore
gon Democrats looks like a rever-
sal by Mr.. Wilson, a return to his
original position Of uncompromis-
ing opposition to any change in the
treaty or league. Eventually he
will be found supporting reserva-
tons that do not destroy the
treaty and condemning the Lodge
reservations on the ground that
they are destructive.
There is noticeable renewal of
confidence and hope in White house
quarters as Senator Johnson gains
ground. Senator Knox's speech
really helped to bring out the let
ter to the Oregon Democrats.

which are now In business districts.
Pu-lic garages should be allowed as a
matter of course in these light indus
try districts. Probably after the
proper light industry districts had
been created, the Board of Appeals
should be relieved of their present
work Of locating or prohibiting public
garages in business streets. These
garage cases comprise a large fraction
of the calendar Of the Board of APP
peals on zoning and take up a great
deal of it's time. This change would be
made by amending the law so that new
prohibited In business districts but
allowed anywhere in light industry dis
tricts. The Board of Appeals would,
Of course, still continue to pass on the
more di fcult garage questions, such
as the extension from one district into
another, the enlargement of existing
garages and changes of uses.
Need of Light Industry" Districts
The needle trades, for instance,
should be placed in light industry dis.
tricts. To-day there is nothing inter-
mediate between business and unre-
stricted, and if a district now desig-
mated as business is changed into un-s
restricted 1t is laid open to the in
vasion Of chemical works, Junk shops,
iron foundries and other harmful or
dangerous industries.
Experience has shown that the pro-
visions Of the ordinance regarding
both private and public garages can
be changed to advantage. To-day q
private garage accessory to q dwelling
arranged for not more than five cars
is allowed in residence district. The
Fire Department is administering this
law strictly and is preventing tho rent
ing Of such garages for private cars
or the storing of business cars. There
seems to be no reason why such ga
cars instead Of five.
The law could we'll be changed 70
allow an owner to keep light business
cars in such garages; for instance, cars
weighing less than two tons. II the
capacity were cut down to three cars
and the limit Of size placed at two
tons, there would seem to be no seri-
Gus reason why tho owner should not
be permitted to rent the garage. Pop
ular irritation Is being caused by these
garage cases and the entire zonins law
is unnecessarily brought into disrepute
In the minds Of many who do not come
in contact with it's larger and more
important benefits. For instance. If q
homo owner who kept car dies and
leaves his home and garage to his wife
who cannot afford to keep an automo-
bile, che widow is first amazed and then
indignant when she learns that It is
contrary to law to rent the garage to
neighbour.
