MAYBE YOUR ADRENAL GLANDS ARE WORKING OVERTIME sealed in vacuum like your coffee freshly fragrant as no other tea cank By DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN (Editor, Journal of American Medical Association, and of Uygeia, the Heal'h Magazine 86 East Broadway This Is an amendment to the state constitution.

It Teas proposed and passed In the last legislature and under the law submitted to the voters for ratification. In the Voters' Pamphlet, State Senator Edward Schulmerlch ot Hlllsboro, and State Representatives B. F. Nichols of Riddle, and Gordon J. Taylor of Molalla, submit an argument In favor of It No argument against It Is presented.

Briefly, the argument In favor of the amendment Is to the effect that nine out ot every ten dollars ot taxes are due to bonding and that property owners who pay the taxes should be the only persons allowed to vote on such Issues. The amendment would not affect the right of every cltlsen to vote for public officers nor would It affect bis present right to vote on bonds and taxes unless the constitutional amendment were followed by appropriate action In the legislature. This Is an enabling amendment to make voting restrictions possible. We are opposed to the amendment. Here's why.

Every cltlien is now, directly or indirectly a taxpayer. States such as Rhode Island whlcb have bad the property tax qualification for years have bad just as much trouble with bonding and taxing and In addition have encountered many abuses through a controlled vote on property matters. We do not look upon this type of cltlienshlp restriction as the proper method of controlling public expense. In our opinion it would be much more helpful to make more cltisens taxpayers by wider use ot taxes on Incomes and salaries and Intangibles, i Still more Important In promoting economy In public business Is MANAGEMENT. Much of the excess taxation Is due not merely to bonds and pedal levies but to wasteful management of the funds so voted.

In Eugene, for Instance, hundreds of thousands ot dollars have been wasted not by building schoolhouses but by Issuing a very unbusinesslike type ot long-term, deferred-payment bonds for the purpose. Restricting voting privileges Is a dangerous policy. It is not progressive or democratic VOTE 301 NO against the amendment THE adrenal glands are two in num-i 1 cavity just above the kidneys.

Grey Sacking Flannel Shirts AVENGE THE INSULT (Capital Journal) 'J'HE chlvalrlc effort of Rufua Holman, atate treasurer, to avenge the "insult" to a lady employe by ousting William Einzlg, accretary of the board of control -and atate "purchasing agent, and incidentally his own appointee, for "using profane and unpardonable language" has resulted in dismal failure for lack of a second and speedy adjournment of the session by the governor.

This is a great disappointment, not only to those who want to see a grlevlous wrong rigltfed but to the general public accustomed to seeing the board of control put on a good ahow "without cost to the taxpayers." The preliminaries led ne to expect something better In the line of fireworks than such a dud. There were fiery accusations and replies. There were charges of petty graft on both sides, denlala and freah accusations In which the epithet "skunk" waa freely applied. Here was a chance for a peraonally conducted probe of alleged state scandals by tbe governor, with far more evidence adduced than materialized at the celebrated trial of Henry Meyers as prison warden. But the executive muffed hia opportunity ond rang down the curtain of silence on the scandals of hia kitchen cabinet.

If Mr. Holman had any proof of hia charges of favoritism In purchases and perquisites annexed by the purchasing agent he should have been compelled to aubmlt it And If Mr. Einzlg had evidence showing Mr. Holman had been guilty of installing Incompetent henchmen on the state payroll to the cost of the tax-payera, and sponging with his friends on state institutions, he should have been forced to produce it.

The effects on character are an excessive feeling of well being; the individual becomes a little too dynamic with a little too much initiative and optimism. Usually such patients are easily excited. On the other hand, an absence ot this secretion makes the individual unfit to cope successfully with either the physical of mental activities of life. There are rapid changes in the blood pressure with a tendency to low blood pressure, a general loss of tone in the skin, early exhaustion and weakness. Such people cannot undertake work that requires much energy or with which there la associated a sudden demand for exertion.

Battleground, Washington, where they channela despite years of recurrent disillusionment COOPERATION IS THE KEYNOTE.

COOPERATION Is the keynote of Chancellor Kerr's first meelng with the University of Oregon faculty. It Is the proper keynote. The chancellor diagnoses the publlo mind In this and other states 'when be says that all higher education Is on trial. Those who are entrusted with the great responsibilities ot higher education must not waste their energy op usless tights. The chancellor can depond on the University faculty for complete cooperation In all scholarly work.

The faculty people want nothing more than the opportunity to go forward with their work. In tact although their welfare has often been seriously affected by the fighting, they have never been party to the fights. Through all the years ot un-settlement and uncertainty they have been going forward patiently and painstakingly with their work. It Is one of the most remarkable things about the Oregon situation that despite all the changing and shifting and wrangling of the last few years, the quality of teaching has never been hurt The people of Oregon are only dimly aware of how much they really owe these faculties. They have been magnificent In spirit In Chancellor Kerr's remark that the Identity of the Institutions must be preserved there Is what might be Interpreted as a hint ot his attitude toward the Zorn bill which threatens destruction of the present system.

Since Dr. Kerr's address was to the faculty and for the faculty, it was probably as much as he could be expected to say for the moment It Is to be hoped that when suitable occasion presents, the chancellor will act to remove the laat lingerlug doubts.

Tom Russell, retiring after a strenuous year as head of the chamber, Is entitled to gratitude for the energotlc, faithful sorvlce he has rendered. A Chamber ot Commerce seems to be one of those things, as the saying la. It is often difficult to get along without It The only thing that In hard about a Chamber ot Commerce Is that Its main Jub Is to h'lst a community by the bootstraps, and this often seems Impossible, As a matter ot fact, the hl'stlng of a community by the bootstraps 1s not so difficult as It might ecm because somntlmos the trouble Is that a community can't see over Its bootstraps.
