INCREASING HIGHWAY FUNDS.

There time in the not distant past when Oregonans
content to waow in the streaks of called roads and
ercey fought effort at highway Improvement the
barbaans of old combaed the encoachment of civilization
That time has happily passed. although still have with
bourbon tenacousy opposing progress and bitterly onestng
every proposed improvement matter of habit
Oregon has ngeniousy solved the problem of highway build
ing by shifting the financial burden upon the automobile
motor license receipts used interest and principal
highway bonds The everncreasng number Of vehicles
provides an everncreasg fundso that money avail
able than can be utilized under present legal restrictions
To remedy the situation and provide way whereby the high
outlined be completed and extended consu-
ona amendment has been submitted to the people for approval
al the May primary election extending the bonding limitation
the state for highway construction to four of the
sed valuation instead of two per cent which will permit the
issuance of bonds to the limit that motor license receipts pay
for
Under the system adopted the state highways paid for
by the motor who them instead of the general
payer who the benefit of the highway without cost The
state highways constructed the better for the state and it's
taxpayers Therefore, there be reasonable objection
against the extension Of bonding limitation which only the
extension of state credits and not the expenditure monies
ed by general taxation
Everyone who avors good roads constructive develop
men should vote for the four cent bonding limitation

Public Forum

To the Editor;--ln Thursdays Jour
nal under heading OF --latest News
Covering Central Willamette Valley
Mt. Angel news you havo published an
article which Is very Inaccurate and
misleading
You say there are only about four
hundred carloads of potatoes In the
atnte yet TO be shipped from the 1919
crop compared with three thousand
cars at this time last year.
The report Of the United States de-
partment Of agriculture bureau OF
markets. shows that oregon only ship
ped 1885 cars of potatoes altogether
last season and the estimated produe
ton this season was Ss per cent less
which was cut probably 20 per cent
more by the freeze, making only about
6S per cent last season or HAS cars Ia
be shipped this season, and il Is the
writer's opinion that there are not
fifty cars remaining In the state to be
shipped. 10 give you an idea Of what
this meana we have shipped as hiRh as
thirty cars In the month OF May with
Mt least ten other firms In the state
handling as many as we do white this
year we will probably not ship more
than two or three cars the balance OF

Mofftt Starts
Crusade Against
LaWIeSS Drivers

Instructed to nab" all lawless auto
and motorcycle drivers, and charged
with uninterrupted enforcement of the
citys traffic statutes, Traffic Officer
Moffitt began at noon today a sys
tematic crusade against speeders, reck-
less drivers and careless motorists.
Heretofore Officer Moffitt's detail has
covered wide range, including trat-
fic patrol, Investigations and emer-
gency runs. Chief of Police Welsh
said this morning that with the in.
crease of traffic and the inability of
one officer to cover traffic and aid In
other police work he has decided to
place one man on traffic violations
alone.
Complaints have come to headquar-
ters that traffic violations are being
made in outlying districts of the city
and the chief hopes to be able to com.
bat this by placing an officer with en-.
tire time in running down the viola
tors.
Shortly after noon Ted Loder, re-
siding on North nth street was re-
ported for cutting a corner with his
auto; and p. S. Kilian, route s, Sa-
lem, was reported for driving past
standing street car.

AT PUBLIC EXPFNSE

Politicians congress propose the exsoder vote
by providing bonus of S25 day for each day spent in the
service necesating the expenditure of billion dollars,
which is proposed saddle to the people in the form OF
direct tax upon sales As result the already burdened
public would pay upon purchases of merchandise
and necessities the they pay luues The tax
would be added every article and the cost of living immensely
increased the consumer and the who secured
the bonus would have pay part of back
taxes to live
Meanwhile nothing done by these congressional statesmen
curb the profieer and prevent png up still higher his
fabulous profits Instead of mctng the swollen fortunes of the
proeer the burden is to be shifted his victims and the
consumer pay the BILL
While something should have been done for the men,
enable them help themselves the time to do it when
they mustered out of service and left to start life
The proposed bonus too late be of much assistance
already restabshed in industry and the idea of bonus
the of election tar reward for patriotism must be
somewhat repusve who freely offered their all their
counrya service beyond price has the appearance of
cheap attempt influence votes by raid the treasury at the
peoples expense
The present congress is certainly breaking all records the
worst and has displayed less constructive ability and
mon sense than any in recent history

confession --or ultimatum -as you
choose no call 1t. and have no doubt
that denims wiz be boosted as soon
as big business can rise to the emer-
gency. just as ''big business" always
rises to supply popular demand. but
always at increased rates.
The present fad. coming so suddenly
and without warning. caught these
gentlemen mapping. and now they have
awakened to the fact that somebody
has ''put something over" and as th-y
were not even invited to the put
ting, it must. of necessity, be a fail
ure. In Birmingham. Alabama. tquot-
ing from Cooper's Weekly prices on
overalls were raised from two dollars
to six, while the clubs were being or
ganized. In Poughkeepsie, n. Y,
tquoting Capital JournaD news item
states that while wholesalers had not
as yet advanced prices, retailers were
selling at advanced prices everywhere.
Thus we note that the retailers. who as
a class loudly proclaim their innocen-
ce, are in many cases as guilty as the
worst of them. The fact that dealers
the country over were caught with am
pie supply to satisfy present demands,
with no excuse under Heaven to in
crease prices has made it possible to
get outfits at fairly reasonable prices,
while these disgruntled gents endea1
vor to console themselves by issuing
their ultimatum, We'll get you next
time"
Your writer in the Journal of the
21st attempted to show that bushel
of wheat would buy as much proper
tionately as it did five years ago.
Granting his premise, l would like to
state that while the farmers wheat is
still the same quality of five years ago,
the fifty dollar suit of today falls far
short in quality of the twenty-five dol
lar suit of five years ago, as many of
us with experience are willing to testi-
fly Besides the farmer is not the
whole population, and with the excep-
tion of a few trade unions that have
had the power TO force their wages to
a level with the increased cost in liv,
ing, there are hundreds of thousands
in clerical positions, teachers, etc,
who are still struggling along on in.
creases of forty per cent, and less. The
postal clerks for example, have, only
this last year, received an increase
amounting approximately to thirty
seven and one-half per cent more than
the basic salary of ten years ago. With
this condition prevailing in many 9TH
er similar yocations, is it any wonder
that we are being driven into overalls
