CASS ST. WIMMttM4rWT.al.llW.sTW 500,000 Candlepower Headlights in the Wings Show Way by Night to Colonel Lindbergh's New Airplane (AaocUtad Tnm Uw4 Wirt) WASHINGTON, April 13 Thamaa A. Edison,- whose mvaot lva genius conceived the devices from whose manufacture have grown industries valued st fifteen and a half billion dollars, la re ceiving his first recognition from Congress. A measure prepared at the sug gestion of Secretary of the Treas ury Mellon, and already approved by the house coinage coniuilttee, has as Its purpose the presentation to Mr. Edison of a modal com memorating his achievements. , The . measure declares that "Thomas A. Edison has demon strated that Inventive genius may be turned to a better and nobler purpose than the mere making of money, and has added more to the material elements of olvlllsatlon, by his own Inventions and what they have suggested to others, than any other man in the history of the world." "ThlB government, under which Thomas A. Edison was born," It adds, "and in which for- more than a generation he has been an educa tional Institution of the first rank, by arousing In the minds of young men some sense of the limitless possibilities of science, when.' de voted to the service of man, has at no time seen tit to formally honor thiB one Individual who nau such a Oil Industry, by Cooperation, Is Trying to Solve Its Own Problems, f Institute President Points Out By B. W. CLARK ' '; (President, American Petroleum - Institute), , LOS ANGELES, April 13. The, oil Industry is engaged in a coop erative effort to solve Its own prob lem, and In, my opinion Is entering a new era. - Conditions and practices under which the Industry has been oper ating have gone, never to return.. New conditions call for the exer cise of striotly economical opera tions and are closely allied with the tremendous strides that have been made In scientific and techni cal application. ... . The industry has at all times met and supplied the demand for petroleum products. This demand, due to the remarkable growth of the industrial development of the country, has Increased more than ten times since the introduction of the automobile and has more than doubled since the war. Further more, the industry was notably successful in meeting the extraor dinary demands of war for both Industrial and military use. Seventy years ago the oil indus try was represented by a single well 69 feet deep producing a few barrels of oil a day and represent ing an investment of less than 12,000. Today the industry's equip ment sud facilities are valued at $11,000,000,000 and the Industry is 'second only to agrloulture and the railroads. Nearly 700,000 Wells have been drilled since 185B. Improvement in . refining meth - . ods and the development of the cracking process has increased the gasoline output resulting from treatment of crude oil. New meth ods of treating natural gas have resulted in a saving or gasoline content and the Increase of supply. Great economies have been ef fected both In drilling methods and production operations, some ' outstanding results, being obtained In proper shut-off and the con servation of gaa in the structures underground, ; 'The very rapid development and application of the air lift prin ciple to the oil well, by the use of air or gas, has demonstrated what research in this direction can ac complish. It also suggests v the probability of profitable applica tion to partially depleted areas at a time when oil Is needed. - At such times, and in such areas, we no doubt will reap the real har vest from the application of these improved methods, The American oil -industry has not developed along the most economical lines, due largely to conditions of land owernshlp out side the control of the industry. It has not been able to overcome the evils of exessive competition, and unnecessary capital has been expended In duplication of opera tion, not only In drilling of closely spaced wells, but in parallel pipe lines, neighboring refineries and in an extravagant multiplication of service stations.. this is a burden that the indus try has created largely -by Its own activity, but the public has had the advantage at complete and convenient service and ot low prices. MOV I KB ARB FOR MOR ONS, 8AY8 ACTOR BIRMINGHAM, Ala. "Movies nre made by and for morons." That's the startling assertion made here by Richard Held as Slayer Co-, J firm hold on the popular imagina tion as to force men to watch what he is doing and hear what he Is saying." Rep. Randolph Perkins ot New Jersey, chairman ot the house coin age committee, in commending the measure to the members said that Edison had applied tor 1,328 pat ents and that the onetary value ot the industries based upon big In ventions, or what had been ma terially stimulated by his Inven tions, was estimated at 115.599,0110, 000. These he divided as follows: Moving pictures, 11.850,000,000; telephones, 11,000,000,000; electric railways, (6,500,000,000; electric lighting, ' 15,000,000,000; electric supplies, 1857,000,000: fixtures, $37,000,000; phonographs, $106,- ooo.ooo; car shops, $109,000,000; dynamos aud motors, $100,000,000; batteries, $5,000,000; concrete, $271,000,000; telegraph, $350,000,- ooo; wireless telegraph, $15,000, 000. The medal was suggested by Secretary Mellon when the com mittee referred one ot the various proposals for medals to the treas ury department early tills session. "If you are so anxious to give medals,'' the secretary told the clerk ot the oommlttee, "why don't you lBBtie one for Edison?" Weekly Foreign News Review (Auoclited froa Uucd Wire) Three premiers of Europe Poincaire of France, Baldwin of Great Britain and Mussolini of Italy were prominent in the big gest news that Easter week brought to the world from foreign capitals. M. Potnoalre announced that a revision ot Germany's reparations would be aooeptable o Franoe, such as would permit Germany to put her bonds guaranteeing repara tion payments under the DaweB plan on the market, so - that the money thus raised would pay oft the war debts mi arouud. Stanley Baldwin announced . in the House of Commons removal ot the restrictions on the export o, rubber from Malaya and Geylon, Abolition of the restrictions will come on November 1 next, and will thus meet the contention in the United States that no such restriction should have been en dured so long. Italy Wants to Expand . Benito Mussolini, wltB a sudden ness that surprised even his own Fascists, proceeded to Milan, where he had long conferences with Turkey's foreign . minister.: and the Greek foreign minister. He is also down for a talk with the head of the Polish foreign otrlce and these conversations have been the subject of much speculation. Italy Is reaching out tor expan sion of trade. She wants moro op portunities In Africa, and In Tur key and Russia, and as the Italian premier's movements are usually of much moment to the world at large, and other' powers are report ed to be watching events In Milan closely, with a. conference of the little entente nationB, Rumania, Jugo Slavla and Csecho-olovakia, In prospect to conBider what new polioy Mussolini may have In mind. ..; ... Routine Business" . Along with Polncalre's repara tlons speech, came news' thnt 8. Parker Gilbert, ageut-Keneral tor reparation payments, had gone to Home from Paris, and was In con ference, tor a long time with the Italian finance minister, Count Volpi. Mr. Gilbert himself said that he was engaged In merely "routine business," but this rou tine Is believed to have to do with some new form of reparation set tlement The German flnauce mm lster, Dr. Helnrlch Koehler, who also is in Rome, was said to be mere merely in "religious retreat. and thus far has had nothing to do with negotiations regarding the war debta. Great Britain met Egypt's rejec tion ot the Anglo-Egypllau treaty and premier Nahas Pasha's de mand tnat Egypt have full and complete Independence, with the blunt reply that the welfare ana integrity of Egypt was necessary to the peace and , safety - ot the British empire and would be main tained. Commandant Fltimaunce, Irish Free State alt service, has K with the German aviators, Captain Koehl and Baron von Huenefeld who are anxious to fly the Junk- era plane, Bremen, across the seas to Amorloa. Fltzmaurloe will take the place of Arthur Bplndler, who flew with Koehl and Huenefeld from Berlin to Baldonnel, near Dublin, where the German plane remains ready for the take-off. Spludler gave up the Job after an argument with von Huenefeld, and returned to Germany. The church and state have let their duicrences quiet down -over the education ot Italian youth. The pope's recent speech before the diocesan, board ot Rome, which took Issue with the Fascist govern ment in Its control of youth, spirit ual as well as physical, was ex plained by the official organ ot the Vatican, OHServatore . Romano, aa meaning that the church was merely seeking cooperation with the Btato in the development ot of Italian manhood. NBA Detroit Bureau Miss Marguerite Bumba'ugh, 30, former Warsaw, Ind., girl, is held as the slayer of WalUr H. Cook, 44, N ties. Mich., manufacturer. Miss Bumbaugh was employed by Cook whan he operated a factory In Warsaw. Police say a quarrel followed an attempt toward a "settlement of their affairs." "The Barker," a stage presenta tion. - - "The morons who play ?n moving pictures are worse than the other morons who go to- seo them. I don't believe there are 20 people in the moving picture Industry who could act on the loglllmate stage." So saying Bennett autographed a picture of himself and handed 1 to the reporter.

Roieburg, Oregon Oregon Cooperatives ' Oregon cooperative farmers havo good cause for gratification at tlio reports ot their association pre sented at the session of die Ore gon Cooperative council at uiugene. Cooperatives have increased In number and in momborship, espe cially during the last four yearn, until their sales In 1027 exceeded $10,000,01)0, and growers of more products have been organized, That systom of mnrkotlug suc ceeds and is well estubllslied. It remalnB to make It grow. Markets for the principal products ot tbe soil ot Oregon are so distant, (lie crop ol each grower Is so Insignifi cant a part of the eutiro supply and the competition of other statuB is so active tnat cooperative mar keting is essential to a fair price free from excessive deduction for cost of marketing. Large volume under single control gives power to make prices and power to re duce cost. Sucli power Is used In the big business of manufacture. It can be acquired by furmers aud fruitgrowers (or salo of their products, and cooperation is tlio proved method. In order to endure, a great coop erative controlling the bulk of an entire stale's product of a certain commodity cannot be built sudden ly. If it should grow up In a night, like a gourd, it will wither as quickly. It must begin Willi the neighborhood, extend to the dis trict, then to the county, then to the state and when well estab lished there Is ready to combine with those ofjjjther states. Oregon prtino growers attnmpted an afiso clatfon which should control nine tenths of the crop and failed. Tnny havo now wisely returned to tho slow hut sure method of establish ing more local units and federating these In districts with a view to ultimate expansion over tho wbolo state. Mstiict associations of growers or apples, other fruits, vegetables, poultry are so well established that they should be ready to Join forces with others dealing in tile same commodities, ineroby to in crease their power and to rxnn' their markets. With membership in eight states and Alaska the wool growers have attained tbla position, for their association's grades are recognized, It has Its own, terminal warehouses on both Pacific and Atlantlo coasts and it sells direct to tho woolen manu facturer by grade. QrowerB of Ore gon 'apples, prunes, peara, cherries, berries, nuts, eggs Biiould profit by that success, as they can by combining' In central bodies. ' Advance to large-Bcale organisa tion has become practically com pulsory since the dealers have formed p. large national associa tion for the' purpose ot combating cooperatives. Disconnected district cooperatives cannot expect 10 cupe with a body ot sucn strength. They can gain the necessary -strength only by combining, by recruiting their membership to the possible limit and by conducting their busi ness on a blg-huBlness scale by blg-buslncss methods. War by the doalors may prove a ' bloHslng to them If It should force district as sociations to unload prima donna managerB who obstruct federation and It It should causo them to fortify the weak spots and lo open an aggressive campaign. Tlio re cent decision of the federal su preme court favors such a policy, for members can bo held to con tracts, and dealers will take grave risk If they Induce members to Jump contracts. Portland Ore goulau. "Mother" Schumann-Heink There Is something particularly beautiful In tno, great-hearted Bympnthy of "Mother" Schumann, llolnk, who has given to her loved soldier boys hor magnificent es tate near Han Diego, to bo used as a home for disabled votorsns. l)y the Inhuman chance of war, Schumannllelnk lost ono son In the German army and another who fought with the Americans on Iho side ot tho allies. That double ioss, so strangely In- conBltttent as It Ik, gives added poignancy to her grief, a grief that might easily have embittered a less generous, and noble heart. To Madame Hchumann-lleinK, wno has long measured other heart depths by tho contagion ot her smllo and the rk-h music of her matchlens voice, sorrow has brought only a hotter understand ing and a deeper sympathy. She Is "Mother" to thousands and there can he no doubt that she values thsl desr title far above any applause that the world has rendered her as an artist. In giv ing her boys this great estate, she but enjoys a molher's privilege and we feel that It Is quite as ap propriate to congratulate her that she had the gift to giro as to con gratulate the war's unfortunates who receive 11. Bitch a gracious benefaction, dedlraled to the soldiers of Ameri ca by Iho mother of a dead Gor man soldier, proves again the fu tile tolly at an enmity, that, would divide two, peoples who sing the same songs, worship the same Ood a id hold high, tho same Ideals of love and motherhood.
