I'WifTgty, movd from his pulutiul

; hotel. Ho was bankrupt after a
j'legal battle lasting six month.
Clnrence Saunders tht-n made
his now famous prophecy:
j "in inree years i win nave maue
three million doljars. I rtiii make
a million dollars easily."
Hfi wan laughed at.
But today Saunders has eomplei--ed
contracts for stores in 7 ciihs.
They will be scattered from J-os
Angelea to Miami, 1alla.i to St.

And he is not operating on bor
rowed, money ; the corpora I ion
bearing his name has not one

pended on any peraon for advice

"In two more years I will have
made that three million dollars,"
Saunders said.
"By tho time T am 60 I will have
made JoOO.OOu.OfiO."
. He said It with all the calmness
with which he had formerly ne
gotiated $5,0(10.000 dm Is for Plg
Kly Wigejy. He seemed to believe
he would do it.
"It's easy," he said. "I am suc

times as great success as I would
it I had not experienced reverses
In my fortune."
A contest Is 8ounders' greatest
delight. As a boy, he snys he wai
"against everything," although ex
tremely sensitive. He Ls at ill oom
hatatlve. He loves football, wrestling-,
tennis, boxing and the other
hardier sports. His keenest de

man may say, -'I will conquer the

Saunders" philosophy is largely
a, "rolj your own" attitude toward

A summary of Habson's eon

as follows; .
"Turn for California the hetter
after an interval - of quietness.
Husiness In California is as good
a sever, and building is morn ex
tensive than usual this season.
Highway construction In also hold
ing up and there Is no more un
employment In California than In
other states. Most sections of
the state claim a good tourist bus
iness, notwithstanding the 'disap
pointment which many tourists
had last winter owing to the snows
nnd general cold snap. Statistics,
however, do show that tho incre
ase in the tourist business from
year to year has been slightly
retarded during the present sea
son. This may be dun to the
fact that the Deonle of the coun-
as formerly, and it may be
,iu0 to , other causes. It also
;-hould be remembered that great
financial boom which California
has had during the pat few
years has largely been due to the
oil situation. Owing to the re
cent low price of petroleum, new
wells are not driven as they have
been in the past, and some wells
have been shut down. There
fore, California is not now re
ceiving the huge sums for oil
that it received dining previous
years, altho even now about 600,
000 barrels a day are being pro
duced. . Most of California's bus
iness barometers average about
the same' as year ago. or
almost any other state, this would
be very satisfactory; but unless
California's are showing an in
crease every and every month,
they are not 'satisfied! 1 Altho

'Some recession still apparent
In common with some of, the other
Pacific localities, Oregon allow a
some let-up In the. miirkct acti
vity of the past few years. This,
however, In only healthy and nor
mal, as the accelerated growth
which the Coast has witnessed
cannot continue Indefinitely.
Notwithstanding this let-down,
building is still very active in
nearly all sections of; the state.
This applies not only to highway
work, but to Industrial nnd, re
sidential building. Probably
Oregon and Washington show the
greatest percent of the Industrial
building of any of the states' in
the country. All plants are being
operated and a large number of
mills and factories are runntnfr
on fairly active schedules. Salem
