Thatcher: The increase is not justifiable. All I have to say. E. A. Ross: It seems to me that in the face of things coming down, it was an Injustice but I am not familiar with all conditions. A.E. Barnett, Auditor Island Lum ber Co. In view of tho conditions that now exhn, it is my opinion that the rate increase is unjust and unwarranted. C. W: Blakesley: There's a lot of People Who think thev npaH nlinnve and really they do not. I believa thoy win now conclude that they do not need the phones. I do not believe the raise in rates was warranted. J. W.

We often use tho phone viiu a nc stamp would serve the same purpose. Mayor Edison Ballagh: I do not .win mat tno puunc should be called upon or compelled to financa any pri vate corporation, or to furnish them me capital to finance their enter prises, i Deileve they are entltlBrt tn a reasonable and leiHii milt a Mtllri. on their money invested but I do not believe the public should be forced to contribute for promised better ments and extensions.

March 17 Smiator Stanfi.ild and Representative llawley of Oregon were participants In the conference in the White House offices yesterday when Senator Smoot presented to President Hard ing ine desire 01 m wt-mi-iu "i men that Immediate embargo on fur that Immediate embargo on further Import of wool be enacted at the op ening of the extra session of congress. ! President Hagenbarth of the Na tional Wood association, was also present and confirmed the figures submitted that a million pounds of wool is now coming Into this coun- , try from abroad and that there Ik now on hand, not counting the new clips about ready for market, two years' supply of1 wool. As the United States normally pro- ! duces 60 per cent "of the wool con sumed, somo idea of tho amount of foreign wool now in the United Stateb run bo gained. Not only do the wool growors of the country face wiping out. but the! banks of the wool ofstrlcts are com pelled to carry frozen loans on wool with no relief in si,;ht. President Harding was sympathet- i to and apparently will approve such a move, especially as an emergency j tariff does not now seem to be on the ' state for early enactment. j Wool and other staples may lv protected In the dumping bill con- t tomplated, but the wool embargo as a separate and independent measure is assured.
