Questions Secretary Hull's Note to Mexico Comment inn on Secretary Hull's Intest messnRe to the Mexi can government on the expropria tion of American-owned inrm lands, Frederick J. Ubby. execu tive accrelary of the National Council for Prevention of War, has just Isaued the following statement: "The first question that occurs to a liberal American on rending Secretary Hull's new note to Mex ico Is whether the universality of the principles of International law which Secretary Hull cities Is a reality: or whether we are deal ing differently with Mexico and our European dthtors like firoat Britain and Fr-.n.e. Tho fact that the Amoric.-.ic government Itself paid the bills due our citizens from Enropenn governments and now holds the bag would hnrdly seem to constitute n fundamental difference, although it might con ceivably bo a precedent for n aim liar governmental loan to Mexico, towards whom the American peo ple feel friendly. "One's Becond question 1 s whether the debts dun Americans on smnll holdings of land are be ing used in Secretary Hull's note to cover reul pressure for pay ment to American oil companies that have, according to nil ac counts, received already many times tlio amount of their Invest ment. "It Is credibly reported thnt the British and American oil com panies, whoso property has been 'expropriated, nro creating every difficulty thoy enn In the wny of Mexico's snlo of her oil In world markets. It would bo a fine mani festation of the Clood Neighbor policy, which wo all take very Bor lously, If Secretary Hull ' would uao his Influence, with tho Ameri can oil companies to prevent Bach Interference with Mexico's most Important source of revenue, "Tlio . American peoplo have every reason to avoid on this con tinent tlio mistakes of Europe which led to tho civil war In Spain. Our government muflt bo ware of creating In . Mexico an other Spain."

Freestone, our National Juvenile Superinten dent, praising the work which Ore gon has done In tlio juvenile field. 1 feel that wo nro worthy of this praise, for we hnvo gono far In thiB work. Hut let us not live on our past merits but press for ward with greater 7oal than ever and place Oregon among the lending states In Juvenile work Sister Freestone is planning on be Ing with lis at National Orange and nsks If tho Millions would like to have n conference with her during the session. If so let mo know during this Conference trip Bo that this may bo arranged think we would be drawn closer to tho work of tho National Orange nnd lenrn much that would be of great benefit ami aid 111 solving many of our (irnnge problems.

Good Work Mayor LaOuardla of New York City recently watched the de struction of property worth 000 and did nothing to stop It. In fact, he applauded the perform ance. And rightly so, for he was present when police department employes fed Into the mnw of a concrete cutting machine 707 slot machines to be ground to pieces. Tho devices represented seiz ures in the city in recent years. More than 400 of them were brand new, streamlined in the modern manner, but slot machines just the same. It is the fervent hopo of those who see in such gambling devices no good whatsoever nnd a great deal of evil that Mayor I.aOuar dln will keep the concrete crush er nt work until the metropolis is rid of them. Oregon should oncn and for all time, rid Itself of slot machine nt tho election In November. He suro nnd rend Representative Hannah Martin's articles on another page about the referended measure to abolish slot machines In our state. Seeks New Federal Plant A 40-pnge brief propnred hare and signed by representatives of 27 civic and agricultural bodies has been submitted to Secretary Wallace urging Hint one of the four new million-dollar regional experiment stations be located in tho Pacific NortuweBt, preferably In Oregon. The stations nro to bo used to discover. If possible, now useB and new markets for surplus, farm products. For Peace or War F. J. Handsaker. This article Is written the day following Chancellor Hitler's Nur enberg Bpeech nnd today the world is wondering whether it means peace or wnr. The answer may be known before this article apponrs in print. If tho answer is war, can America stay out? From the poverty nnd distress of that wnr no nation in the world can escape. We can escape sending our boys abroad In another suici dal effort to settle European quar rels provided we are willing to pay groat price. No matter how groat the price, it will be nothing compared to the price we pay if again we leave our shores to fight in other nations' battles. Piously wishing that we will stay out or shuddering with fear at tho consequences of war will not avail. Tho building of an or gaplzed Intelligent public senti ment that will turn the nations' feet In tho way of pence without waiting for the wiif drums to bent Is one absolute essential unless we nro to join the devil's dance of death. Wo aro rightly shocked at what Japan is doing in China but pro tests from her partner are in poor taste. Her partner, the United States of America, Is selling her bombing planes, 75 per cent of her gasoline to run them, shiploads of bombs to be dropped on the heads of women and children. The neu trality law now on the statute books but flouted by the Admini stration would take us out of part nership in this crime of tho cen turies nnd support should bo ral lied now back of those . Senators ami Congressmen who aro deter mined to strengthen th law. The Ludlow Admendment to give voters a right to say wheth er wo gw Into another foreign war will be up for discussion in Con gress nnd time spent In securing signatures for petitions for this amendment which will be reintro duced the day Congress opens Is time well spent for pearo. Grangers' Let u take care of your beauty problems. Telephone 424 ILA'S BEAUTY SHOP 3rd Floor Perkins Bldg. Louis J. Taber Grangers attending the national grange, convention to be held In Pprtland In November will have an opportunity to meet, see and hear the head of their national organization. Louis J. Taber. master of the national grange, is to be one of the principal con vention speakers. He resWes in Columbus, Ohio. The last session of Congress au thorized the building- of an enor mous navy which has no relation to defending our shores from Inva sion but Is evidently designed to fight another war a long way from home. If we would center on protecting our coasts from In vaslon rather than protecting our business men and the Interests of our allies In foreign lands, our na tional defense expenditure would be only a fraction of what It is now nnd our influence would be for peace rather than for the arm race which can end only. In one way, war. So if you want your boys and mine and theirs to live In a world of pence and plenty, here aro at least five things you can be doing to Keep. America out of war and so have one sane spot In the world if the reHt of the world chooses the suicidal path of war: Talk to your neighbors and bo build sentiment; urge Congress to strengthen the neutrality Inw and to puss tho Ludlow Amend ment; urge a national defense pol icy to protect our shores from in vasion and not to join in other na tions', wars and send men of peace to Congrons who will vote your will to peace. Day of Skyscrapers Past At the recent convention In Milwaukee of tho National Asso ciation of Building .Owners and Managers the concensus of opin ion scorned to be that the sky scraper building, pf. the big city has seen its best days. Since the depression, which began in 1929, few skyscraper office buildings have been a paying Investment. Ilgh construction and "operation costs, high taxes, and high in surance rates nre all opernflng against the skyscraper as an eco nomical plan of building. High rentals- charged nre forcing .ten ants' into lower buildings nnd even out into ' suburbs of the larger cities where both-rents and taxes are mnch lower. 1 ' '.' : Any Older Twins? Out in Denver a pair of- twinB, Mrs. Loittae Weaver anil Mrs. Julia Finchnaugli, celebrated their 9-lth birthday last month. They begin their !)5tli year full of optimism and cheerfulness nnd the hope that they will live to be 100 at least. "Say. if there's anything wo don't, pet n kick out of," said .Mrs. Weaver on their birthday, "I would like to know what It Is. And work, why wo can work rings around most modern housewives. We cook, clean, bow, Iron and even do our washing." They have a prlee oup which they received at Tacoina, Wash., even years ago ns the "most Identical twins In America." Grange Aids in Holding Freight Rates Down Arthur M. Geary, Attorney for Farm Rate Council. The Oregon State Grange, through prompt ' action of its Transportation committee, has had a part in saving two million dollars a yenr for the fruit and vegetable shippers of Oregon, Washington and Idaho. Announce ment of proposed increases In the transcontinental rati rates on fruits and vegetables was receiv ed during the closing hours of the state conventioij at Klamath Falls, nnd a resolution was pass ed instructing tfle Farm Hnte Council to file a petition with the lnlerstnle Commerce Commission opposing these increases. The Interstate Commerce Com mission granted the petition and suspended the increased rates pending hearing. Now the rail- Wives road a r rather than make further attempt to prove their case, have decided not to proceed in a hear ing which the commission had scheduled before Commissioner Claude R. Porter for Portland September 25. ' The 6 to 10 cents per hundred pound increase that has just been avoided would have been In addition to the 5 per cent in crease which became effective on. all interstate shipments of agrl cultural products March 28.

The prizes will be sent out from this office soon and arrangements will be made to have the winning essay read over station KOIN. . The silver cup will be probably presented by the Na tional Grange. Hops in Oregon Will Be a Very Light Crop The Oregon hop production. was forecast at 18,275,000 pounds (about 91,375 bales) on September 1, compared with 19,350,000 pounds on August 1 and 20,425,000 on July 1. The indicated yield this month Is 850 pounds per acre. The poor yield Indicated is the result of the hot, dry weather during the grow ing season. The vines nre gener ally smaller compared with for mer year's. The arms are fewer and there is much bare wire show ing. On the acreage that was not harvested Inst year the stands nre generally poor. Hop sizes are be low normal. Yards are quite free from red spider nnd mildew. While the crop will bo smaller than a year ago, tho quulity is ex celletn and the crop Is quite clean. A large proportion of the crop has been picked. MADDOX GROCERY Fruits and Vegetables Farmers' Trade Solicited Roseburg 207 N. THE MEETING PLACE FOR GRANGERS . . 24 Hour Service ... ROSEBURG CAFE R.

New Wonder Metal A tipv? vonder metal which is rapidly proving a boon fur many industries bids fair to revolution ize engineering, practice wherever Kreat strength with extreme .isht- nens is required. This new metal which makes even aluminum seem hestvy and yet which can be alloye 1 to have the strength end tenacity of steel in making a designer's dream come true. This new meta" enly two-thirds the weight aluminum ani approximately one- fifth the weicht of steel. It Is known as Mngalloy. Its basic In gredient is magnesium which 1 one of the metals most commoniy found on the 'earth's surface. By the use of Magalloy i.ianu facturers have already begun to produce planes which fly higher and faster and carry more passen gers at n lower cost than evrr considered possible. In other transportation fields such transcontinental buses, Interstate trucks and other units engaged in long-haul work, Magalloy parts have reduced the weight of the ve hicle so greatly thnt the payload ratio to total weight has soared beyond all expectation. The result Is less wear and tear on the ve hicle, more mileage from gasoline Phone 499 Jackson Home of Extends US FOR Milk Cream Fruit Juices PHONE 38 and tires and greauy reuueeu costs because or tne eummauon of dead, useless weight. Prob ably no development in the mater ial world will nave sui spread Influence on transporta tion engineering than this new wonder metal Magalloy. GRANGE PUT FARM COURSE IN SCHOOLS Rn far as is known, the first formal endorsement for the teach ing of agriculture in the public schools in rural districts was a resolution adopted iy me nation al grange in 1878. In the begin ning many educators uiu noi iuse kindly to the Idea, but the grange continued to advocate It, and it has now been accepted In most of the states. IMMATERIAL . "Is this the weather bureau?" asked a feminine voice over the telephone. "Yes, ma'am, It Is." "Wei, how about a shower to night?" "It's all. right with me, take one if you need it." The Grange has consistently favored arbitration as a means of settling Intei national disputes, it has opposed unnecessary militar ism and compulsory military training in the public schools. Botanists cannot explain why the branches of poplars grow up wards, while those of willows grow downwards. i AND HERES THE SECRET OF ITS AMAZING 6RIP ON, THE ROAD " . . c:wertow - " o ' 1 n j-likc a battery olWinu.. -the wat" rig ui. deep o"- age St""' . .,nck for the rub ber to &w LIFE- SAVER .
