We hope that the people of this
town will get behind the proposition
to secure the funds to finish up the
gap in the highway between Hepp-
ner and Lexington. The proposition
has got beyond the point of being a
"debatable question" and if it is
necessary to divert the market road
fund, amounting to about $4,000, to
this piece if work, let it be diverted.
Why not have at least one finished
job in the road program and let up
on this idea of putting a little bit
here and another little bit yonder,
and in the end getting no where. The
Willow creek highway should be
completed at the earliest possible
date, and there is now no apparent
means of getting the funds except
the one proposed. Pressure enough
should be brought upon the county
court to place this years market road
fund at the disposal Of the state high
way commission, who will match it
with other funds and thus provide
sufficient means to close the gap that
now exists.

Under the management of Prof.
Heard of the high school, the
grounds recently secured from Mr..
Gentry on the lower end Of the Mar
latt tract, have been put in very eX-
%cellent shape for a baseball diamond.
This land is so admirably situated
for an athletic field that it should be
secured, if possible, and made the
permanent property of the city and
county. There should be a plan
worked out whereby this can be done
as a joint proposition. The city needs
the athletic field and the county
needs a suitable place for the fair
grounds. There has been a move
ment started looking to the final pur-
chase of this or some similar tract,
but we know of no other piece of
land so well situated. We should
not urge the outright purchase of
this piece of land, or going to the
expense necessary to put it in proper
shape under existing financial condi-
tons, because our citizens have all
the load it is possible TO carry, never
theleSs, this does not hinder organ
izing for its ultimate requirement,
A park and Fairgrounds for Heppner
is getting to be a necessity and We
shall be glad to see such steps taken
as will secure this tract which can
later be developed into a fair grounds
and park for the city and supply our
students and the general citizenry
with a suitable athletic field.

Slump Wars Aftermath.

1.-The slump which is now upon us
is an inevitable part of wars after
math. 1t has followed in the wake of
war since the world began. There was
the unavoidable reimbursement, the in
evitable charge-off, the unfailing at
tendance of losses in the wake of
high prices, the memorable def1atiOn
which imitation had preceded.
1T has been wholly proper to seek
to apply government relief to minimize
the hardships, and the government
has aided wherever possible, and is
aiding now, but all the special acts
ever dreamed of, all the particular ia
vOrS ever conceived will not avoid all
the distress nor ward off all the
losses.
'The proper mental state of our peO-
pile will commit us resOlutely and con-
fidently to our tasks, and definite as
surances as to taxation and eXpendf-
ture will contribute to that helpful
mental order. The only sure way to
normally is over the paths nature has
marked throughout all human expert
ence.
with the approval of congress the
executive branch of government has
been driving toward that decreased ex-
penditure which is the most practical
assurance of diminished taxation.
..War is not wholly responsible for
staggering costs; it has merely accen-
tuated the menace which lies in
mounting cost of government and ex-
cesses in expenditure which a success
full private business would not toler-

Promises to Save Millions.

II can make you no definite promise
in figures today, but l can pledge you
a most conscientious drive to reduce
government cost by many millions. 1t
would be most discOuraging to those
who are bending their energies to save
millions to have congress add billions
to our burdens at the very beginning.
"Even were there not the threatened
paralysis of our treasury, with it's IA
tai refleXes on all our activities which
concern our prosperity, would it not
be better to await the settlement of
our foreign loans? At such a time it
would be a bestOwal on the part of
our government when it is able to be-
stow.
"The United States participates in
none of the distributable awards of
war, but the world owes us heavily,
and will pay when restoration is
wrought. If the restoration fails,
world bankruptcy attends.
Work of War Risk Bureau.
I'm view of some of the things
which have been said, and very care
lessly said, perhaps l ought TO report
officially some of the things which
have been done. In the department of
war risk insurance, there have been
filed up to July Z, 1921, compensation
and insurance claims numbering $751;
442. Of these, 747,7S6 have been adj
Indicated, at an expenditure of $471,-
946, 1852. There were 100000 claims
pending when the war risk department
was reorganized late in April this
year, and the number of pending
claims has been reduced by 134,344.
There have been requested S87,614
medical examinations and more than
14,0O0 await medical action.
There has been paid out il allot-
ment and allowances the sum of $685.
465,653, and nearly $4.O00,O0O,00O of
government Insurance is in force"

reduction, of our internal taxation, the

reduction, OF our INTERNAL JaxaIlOn, th0
refunding of our war debt and the
adjustment of our foreign loans
1T is vitality necessary to settle
these problems before adding to our
treasury any such burden as is con-
tempIated in the pending bill.
at is unthinkable to except bust
ness revival and the. resumption of
the normal ways of peace while main
tanning the excessive taxes of war. 1t
is quite as unthinkable to reduce our
treasury to an additional obligation
which ranges from $3,0O0,0OO,O00 to
5,OO0,OO00OO. The precise figures no
one can give.
eff it is cOnceivably true that only
100000 year will be drawn an
nually from the treasury in the few
years Immediately before us, the be-
stOwal is too inconsequential to be or
real value to the nations defenders;
and, if the exercise of the opinion
should call for cash running into bill
lions, the depression in finance and
industry would be so marked that
vastly more harm than good would at
tend.
Must Meet Obligations.
"Our government must undertake no
obligation which it does not intend to
meet. No government fiat will pay
our bills. The exchanges of the world
testify today TO that erroneous theory.
We may rely on the sacrifices of pa
triotism in war, today we face markets
and the effects of supply and demand
and the memorable laws of credits in
time of peace.
"At the very moment we are obliged
to pay 5A per cent interest for gov
eminent shOrt-time loans to care for
government Indebtedness, rate on
government borrowing, in spite of tax
private transactions for the normal
interest charges in financing our in
dustry and commerce.
Definite obligations amounting to
seven and half billions in War Saw
ings certificates, Victory loans and
certificates covering floating indebted
ness are to mature in the two years
Immediately following, and the over
burdening of the treasury now means
positive disaster in the years immedf-
ately before us. Merest prudence calls
out in warning.
'Our greatest necessity is a return
to the normal ways of peace activities.
A modest offering to the millions of
service men is poor palliative to
more millions who may be out of en-
ployment. Stabilized finance and we'll
established confidence are to be es-

the repeal of Panama tolls. the ship
ping act. the child labor law, the pur-
chase of the Danish West Indies and
federal aid for good roads.
The federal reserve law Is poten-
TALLY as great q piece Of constructive
legislation as any that has been en-
acted in this country. We were abso-
lutely without financial system, and
the money OF the nation was in the
irresponsible control of few big
banks in New York.
Every attempt to remedy this situa-
ton had failed because private finan-
cial interests naturally wished to keep
their control Of the money. The Aid
rich bill in the Taft administration
proposed TO give the sanction of law
to this private domination, but con-
gress refused to pass it.
The federal reserve act simply re-
versed the Aldrich plan and gave the
nation, through the government, the
control of its own money.
President Wilson was the relentless
driving force that pushed through the
federal reserve hill and the rest of the
legislative program.
The electric spark was omitted from
President Wilson's composition, and
this omission denied him a flowing
communication with his fellows, nat
ural limitation which was confirmed
by the life he had led until he was
suddenly thrust into the hurry burly
of politics.
President Wilson has been a lonely
figure in the White House. He came
to the presidency a stranger TO public
men, and no president can make new
friends-real friends.
His recollection was one OF the big
surprises of our presidential elections.
For several hours after the polls
closed he appeared TO have been badly
beaten, and Hughes went to bed with
the assurance that he was president
elect.
After all the great industrial states
which chad decided the elections in the
past, except Ohio, had sent in reports
Of Republican victories, the tide was
turned by the far West, which had
been almost forgotten in the reckon
ing, but where the conservative inter-
ests had less influence. At last the
returns from remote hamlets in the
Sierras gave California to the presl-
dent by less than 1000 plurality. He
had lost all but two Of the northern
states east Of the Missouri, and yet
won by carrying all but two Of the
states west of that river, where the
women voters are supposed to have
rallied to him because che kept us out
Of the war;" 49, -

Big Demand for
Trained Testers

Men trained to manage Cow Test
ing Associations in Michigan are go
ing to be i'm great demand as the
number Of associations increases in
the state, says Prof. o. Il. Reed, head
of the dairy department at the Mich
igan Agricultural College. Enough
men for four new testing associations
were lined up in Allegan county
alone, during a recent dairy campaign
there, and the spread of the work
throughout the state is expected to
place heavy premium upon trained
testers.
In an effort to meet the demand
special two-weeks short course in
Cow Testing and Dairy Barn Manage
ment will be given at M. A. c. from
Dec TO Is. A number Of men who
wish to qualify for the official COW
test positions are expected to enroll
at that time.
Other short courses in agriculture
which will open at the college this
month include. a four weeks course
in Poultry Husbandry, starting Nov.
%, and a months course in Truck and
Tractor operation which opens on the
same day..

A FTER Woodrow Wilson had been
IA teaching in the classroom for a
quarter of a century that the presi-
dent ought to be more like prime
minister, trying TO cooperate with
other human beings" than "a mere
department hailing congress
from some Isolated island of author
ity," the opportunity came to him TO
put his theory in practice. When con-
gress met in extra session a month
after his Inauguration he walked in
and delivered his message in person,
reviving a custom which Jefferson had
stopped only because he happened to
have poor voice and was an awk-
ward speaker.
President Wilson adopted the .atti-
tude of a sort Of member at large of
both houses. sauntering unheralded
into the seldom-used presidents room,
which adjoins the senate chamber,
whenever he had any special business,
and talking things over in the open.
The president succeeded not by
arousing a personal loyalty to himself
but by the force of his ideas. 81 have
had majority on the floor, hut" he
admitted. "never a majority in the
cloakroom."
Here are the outstanding items in
the peace record of the Wilson adj
ministration: Tariff revision, the first
income tax, the federal reserve act,
the federal trade commission, the
Clayton trust law, 30 arbitration trea-
ties, the seaman's act, the farm loan,

remedy for kidney troubles and back
ache, it is a good plan to try Doan's
Kidney Pills. They are strongly rec

ago my back and kidneys started to
trouble me. Sharp pains often darted
up and down my back, making it hard
for me to do my work. 1t was hard
for me to stoop over or lift anything
and at night when | went to bed, |

used by many folks, so bought few
boxes at the Look-Paterson Drug Co.,
and they cured me wonderfully"
