HOOVER says the wage Bcale must be maintained, and it must, 'unless we want to shoot prosperity to pieces entirely. It should be remembered however, that the value of wages depends on the cost of living. Mr. Campbell, quoted above, says wages now greatly increased on the farms make little difference. The skilful American farmer with modern machinery ma-chinery can "seed" his land for three cents an acre. They can't do that In China, with earth's cheapest labor. Municipal Power Wins Again The power trust is losing ground on a wide front in : the west. . . . in significant is San Diego's vote on municipal ownership, -following a like victory in Seattle. North and south, the - tide runs the same way. E. H. Dowell, San Diego candidate for council, gets an overwhelming majority on a platform, favoring the building of atlam for water storage and power, and contracting with the government for city purchase of Boulder dam power. Advocates of private monopoly continue to use their old arguments. They say "Public ownership is right in theory, but not in practice." Then they cite instances of waste, ' graft and extravagance in public affairs. But the public is beginning to realize that irtost of these monopoly arguments comprise the "theory" in the controversy. contro-versy. The facts are that power rates are much lower in cities running their own light plants and that most of these plants are profitable. The edifice of propaganda for private monopoly, that has been so expensively constructed, is dissolving, as the elections show, under the onslaughts of good comimon sense. Would Exterminate Autos A genuine solution to the traffic problem is offered. We'' fear it is the only genuine solution. r : . 'What did the automobile da for this country last year?" V protests a St. Louis, Mo., writer. "It killed about 25,000 useful use-ful citizens--and that doesn't count the ones that died in bed from illnesses brought on by riding in soft seats instead of walking. Imagine what we would think if we heard of some dis-, dis-, tant country where wild beasts roaming the" roads killed 25,000 citizens a year. We would wonder why the whole popjjlation didn't rise up and wipe out the beast." Although Americans probably couldn't wipe outthe rub- V ber-tircd beast, even if they wanted to, the extent of grief it , J brings them is har'dly exaggerated.

Dr. Charles Mayo, world-famous physician, says the average American takes better care of his automobile auto-mobile than he does of himself. Yeah, and a- car can be traded in on a new model every year, and a man cant! Dr. Mayo is right. Many a man will pour moonshine into himself that he wouldn't think of pouring into the fuel tank of his car. i IMPORTANT j ANNOUNCEMENT This department takes pleasure in announcing that Hubert J.

It is aV) onkpn like, ornamental paint found along the shores of the Mediterranean aea.

THE OBSERVER By Jim Marshall "I believe that thoroly and nothing noth-ing can budge my belief in it" a man said to us the other day about something or other he's one of the millions who believe something or other and you can't budge 'em and probably they're the greatest, great-est, enemiesto progress that the world has today in the present stage of world- development nobody ought to be-) lieve anything sji s(c A baby two weeks old in its cradle might say: believe the world to be bounded by four, walls covered with pink rosebuds. "Its people consist, of a big baby-bullt like me who feeds me and another big baby with a rough face who scratches my face against his every evening "The world lives on milk and i is sung to sleep every night . . ." Historically the world is just about in the two-weeks-old-baby state and it has no right to go forming definite opinions until it has a lot more facts than it now possesses wc rightly reprove a baby for its baby-beliefs but we re no better bet-ter ourselves what we believe today is disproved dis-proved tomorrow and what is proved tomorrow will become unreliable un-reliable the day after. . Of course if you don't believe anythingand content yourself with trying to find out you become what is called a cynic and people mourn for your "lack of faith'' but at least you don't fall for any of the current superstitions and thus you save a morsel of self-respect If the whole world believed something some-thing thoroly there would be no more progress made if we'd all believed it was impossible im-possible to fly as everyone did once upon a time we wouldn't be flying today it was only the cynical doubters doubt-ers who guessed that all the believers be-lievers were wrong that made flying fly-ing possible. AND, LISTEN: Directly you accept a belief and refuse to be budged from it you stop growing. Questions The three Rlcci Srolhers. Italians, have tried to get into America four times. " They have stowed away on Italian, Spanish, Dutch and French 1 vessels, but have always boon caught. Q. What word is represented by the abbreviation "lb." meaning pound? A. It stands for libra, the Latin word for pound. " Q. For whom was the city -of . Eugene, Oregon, named? A. For Eugene F. Skinner, 'who settled there about the year 1852. He later became an important railroad rail-road official. - Q Is a criminal necessarily a convict? , A. A convict is a convicted criminal, crim-inal, but there are no doubt that many criminals have not been caught and convicted. Q. Who was the first chief jus tice of the United States supreme court and who is the present chief justice? A. The first- chief justice was J John Jay (1789-1795). Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughes was appointed ap-pointed in 1930. . Q. -Does a dishonorable discharge dis-charge from the army or the navy automatically deprive a man of his citizenship. A. A dishonorable discharge . does not in itself deprive a man of -his citizenship, but in some cases the court martial which tries him takes this action, and in some states civil rights are denied to -those who have been so discharged. Q. Does, the new reapportionment reapportion-ment act increase the number of member of the United States house of representatives? A. Under the reapportionment act the number of members of the house of representatives is left at 435, and the total is not increased to correspond with the growth of population. Those states, which have increased in population are entitled to one more representative for approximately each 300,000 of new inhabitants, and the ,losses of representatives in states that have not increased, in population is worked out on the basis of major fractions. Thus if the Id representation repre-sentation in a state was on the-basis the-basis of 200,000 for each representative, represen-tative, on the basis of 300.000 per representative, the loss in the total representation of the state might be one, or even three congressmen. j Patrolman Otto Schringer.
