Heppner is right proud of their
young folks who have been an
nounced the winners in the debating
contest, and rightly so. This is the
first time our school has taken part
in the interscholaStic debate, and to
have them win a fine victory over
leading schools in the district makes
us all feel good. Prof. James should
feel that his efforts in behalf of the
students also entities him TO con-
gratulationS, and whatever honor is
due him We know will be borne with
modest satisfaction. We are no less
proud, also, of the accomplishment
of our basket ball team, and rejoice
that the boys were able to hold up
the standard of their playing and
make the winnings emitting them to
take part in the state tournament.
Athletics have a proper place in ev-
cry we'll regulated school, and so
long as ii is made subordinate to the
standing of the pupils in their stud
les should be encouraged. The
Heppner school is putting athletics
on this plane and the success Of the
basketball team thus far gives the
community at large keen pleasure,

This Question of Sunday.

Shall the United States abolish
Sunday ?? asks Henry Ford's paper,
Of course not, But there is a lot
in the viewpoint.
OF late We have been having much
talk concerning blue laws" and
manv papers Of New York, Chicago
and other large cities have worked
themselves into a fine frenzy about
it. Most Of the talk is bunk. Very
few of the people who are campaign
ilg for a "purer' Sunday want to 60
half as far as these organs of opin-
ion say they do.
Sunday observance is largely a
matter of viewpoint. What one nan
considers Sunday work is not SO
considered by another man. What
n person holds as dissertation Of
the day another holds as no desecra-
ton at all,
Nevertheless, let the man-es-
pecially the workingman-who de-
cries all Sunday observance, beware,
On what foundation does the day OF
rest-Sunday-lay? What is the
sole influence that upholds it?
The Christian religion. Nothing
else.
What would happen if the Chris
ton religion were made negligible
in the United States, and if, thereup.
on, Sunday became as any othe:
day? Results would be the same as
in pagan China, where the working
man has no day of rest at all. And
as in Japan where no Christian re-
ligion is present to see that people
get their one day in seven; where
the law allows theSworker one da,
off in 30, which, however, he doesn't
get if the employer can help it.
Don't belittle your American Sum-
day too much, folks, or some day the
mass of the people may be like the
degraded Chinese and the no less
degraded people of Japan in the
mass.

sion of the state legislature there
was a proposition up to abolish Ore

no doubt it would have been a good
thing to do. If these companies
were able to weather the storm when
prices for labor and materials were
at the peak, why should the public
be made to suffer now, that every
thing else is on the down grade and
tax burdens are greater than ever
before. There seems to be little
consideration for the public so far
as the service commission is con.
cerned; it is ready to grant all in

The Oregon Journal believes there
is something fundamentally wrong
with the Oregon system of regulat-
ing public utilities. That may he
true, but no matter what sort of a
system We may have it will operate
no better than the men who enforce
it. The East OregOnian is Of the
opinion our trouble is not so much
with our system as with the way it
is handled by our public service
commission. A commission that
would allow the telephone company
to increase rates 80 per cent at a
time when prices are falling shows a
poor grasp of its duties.-Pendleton

doing the same thing to many other
articles. Some day the people OF
this state will awaken to the import
ance Of manufacturing our raw ma
terialS into the finished article right
here at home and save these carriage
charges. This brings to our mind the
thought that in the development of
hydrO-electric power, such as that
proposed at Umatilla rapids, there
will be found a means of relief in the
furnishing of cheaper power for
manufacturing purposes, and thus
will eventually come a development
to the state such as will put us in line
to sell our surplus manufactured
goods to other parts of the country.

Sky Fighters VS.. Sea Fighters.

They are having a terrible time
back in Washington over the ques-
ton as to whether the giant battle
ship or the airplane is the better
man.
A certain number of sky ship men
insist that the day of the battleship
is over; that the military a~irplanes
with their high explosive bombs will
be able to sink the best of them
Therefore, no more battleships
should be built.
The navy experts all deny this.
They say it will be many years be-
fore the airships win be able to de-
stroy a swift, armored, skillfully ma
neuvered b~attleship, if ever. So
Secretary Daniels is taking their ad-
vice and the Navy Department is 60
ing ahead with its plans.
The other day there was a test Of
the skill Of the military airplanes.
The old battleship Indiana was towed
out TO sea, anchored and abandoned
The air captains began to drop their
smartest bombs on her. When they
we're all through, the Indiana still
hoated triumphant. OF course, her
deckworks were ripped up a bit and
she was a good deal Of a wreck above
board. 1t must be remembered also
that there was nobody on board her

However, the test didn't satisfy the

Former Senator Albert ]. Bever-
idge of Indiana, speaking before a
Washington's birthday celebration
by the Sons of the Revolution and
other societies at New York, said
America always had been the most
propaganda-ridden country in the
world" Every foreign country to
the exact extent that its interests
were affected, and only to that ex-
tent, has sought to use the United
States for its own advantage" he
asserted. "Swarms of foreign prop
-agandists are creeping all over
America. They are delivering lee
lures, preaching sermons, giving in
terviews, writing articles, cajoling
those deemed influential with Ameri-
can public sentiment. They infest
American journalism, are invading
American universities have captur-
ed a section Of that small but potent
group called American society and,
worst of all, our common schools are
being made culture beds of nom
American ideas. Any political asso-
citation whatever with any foreign
government is as foolish as it is I'M
patriotic. The moment we interfere
or even are asked to interfere or in
any way mix up in foreign political
broils or problems Americas citizen
ship is divided into hostile camps on
purely racial lines. We become a
racial madhouse. Infinitely more
important to US than any internation-
al solidarity is American solidarity"

VIEWS AND REVIEWS
Editorial Comment From Other Newspapers
SALARY CUT IMMINENT?

While there may be no reason for employees
of the state to be unduly alarmed by the report
that a ten per cent. reduction in their salaries
is contemplated. they must realize that the nat
ural law that what goes up must come down"
is as true of compensation for services as it is of
an article thrown into the air, and that it Is
merely a matter of time-and probably not a
long t~ime-when salary cuts will be ordered.
But the matter is one for the legislature to de-
eide, and not the State House Commission or the
Civil Service Commission; though their recon-
inendations will no doubt carry weight with the
budget officers, the appropriations mi
and the legislature, as they did, in fact, when
the bonuses and increases were voted two years
ago.
Important elections are to be held next year
and neither party will care to take the RESPONSE
bility for salary cutting. The tendency has us
ually been the other way. Besides the appro-
priations for salaries during the fiscal year
1921-1922 have already been made. There is no
occasion for present worry over what action the
next legislature may take; still it may be well TO
be prepared for the ten per cent. reduction

ENCOURAGE THE DYE INDUSTRY

The National Exposition of Chemical Indus
tries which was held in New York last week
bring forcibly to mind the agitation that is be-
ing carried on regarding the American dye IN
dustry which became such an important factor
in this country during the war. If there ever
was an infant industry in American that needed
real protection it is the manufacture of dyes at
the present time.
But the dye industry means more to the
country than the ordinary industrial product. 1t
is vital to the nations welfare. This was proven
during the war. For this reason alone 1t Is the
duty of congress to give the manufacture OF
dyes in this country every Encouragement.
Wholly apart from the commercial value oil
the manufacture Of dyes, building up a new
and important industry and giving employment
to American workingmen, the dye industry is
actually = part Of our national defense. 1t is

At the Door
There's some n knocking at the
door. and 1 shall rise and let him in;
I'll show no visage grim or sore, but
greet him with a cordial grin, and
hang his hat upon the floor, and
brace him up with kickless gin. /
do not tremble any more when some
one at the portal knocks, and fear 1t
is some beastly bore who's come to
bone me for the rocks that I am W
ing at the store, for shoes or sugar,
sacks or socks. For now I pay my
bills on time, and ask no man an
hour to wait; I look upon it as a
crime to fool the trusting merchant
skate who sells me lollipops or lime,
expecting pay on such a date. Time
was when 1 gave little heed to keep
ing Credit good and bright; l blew
in all my chicken-feed for every kind
of vain delight and let said Credit go
TO seed until 1t was a blowsy sight.
Collectors chased me down the shore.
and through the glen. and up the
brae, and, as they toiled behind,
they swore they'd get me yet, and
make me pay; and when they thun-
dered at my door 1 hid until they
went away. 1t was a sport l did not
like, it filled my weary days with
care; it always kept me on the hike,
and always lodging. here and there,
and oft 1 called On Pete and Mike in
stony accents of despair. But now

course to be a sin. and / regret the
days Of yore, when chased by bailins
and their kin; when someone's
knocking at the door, I do not fear
to let him in.
