BEGINS WORK OF
CLEARING SITE
Temporary R e m o v a 1 of
L! Receiving Station to
i Reduce Expense, is Re-
' port.
A group of dairymen vitally Inter
ested In the proposed creamery loca
tion met In the high school building
nt Union Friday evening and, after
discussing the situation, prepared the
0 lowing statement wmcn is puo
iBhed at their request:
"The Parmer's Cooperative cream-
: ery Intends to build Its Grande Rondo
s valley plant at Union, as officially
? decided by the board of directors who
visited the Union site recently, ac
m cording to information received by
J James KofforU, Union dairyman, who
f Investigated the status of the local
.' producers at the behest of his fellow
r dairymen, early this week. The tem
? porary removal of the receiving sta
i tlon from Union to Baker last week
had no significance in relation to the
establishment of the new creamery,
W. B. Wagner, general-manager of the
I cooperative, Jtold Mr. Kofford, the
move being merely an effort to re
l ducc overhead expenses by handling
; . the cream through the Baker plant
until the new unit Is operating.
"A plea to the prospective patrons
of the local unit of the co-operative
to realize the need or unity and
the Application of the true spirit of
co-operation as the organization ap
: proaches the consummation of plana
started more than five years ago, was
voiced by Joe Fisher, Cove dairyman,
who has 50 cows contracted to the
group. Dissension in the ranks of the
producer will not necessarily prove
fatal to the plans of the organiza
tion, although continued activity of
discontented persons cannot help un
dermining the morale of the group at
this critical time, Mr. Fisher pointed
out.
"Clearing the site chosen in Union
for the creamery began this week at
the order of W. B. Wagner, manager.
Mr. Wagner is expected In Union
early next week to carry out further
Instructions of the board or curcciora
In regard to construction. While in
the valley the general manager wUl
complete arrangements for the an
nual meeting of the local producers
on July 30. when the advisory board
for the local unit will be elected and
reports of progress given. Directors ot
the entire organization will be pres
ent, with the chairman of the board
noting as chairman of the day for
the Union county meeting. Mr. Wag
ner Is expected to select the place oi
the meeting on his trip here next,
week. Pleasant Grove has been men.
tloncd as a possibility, although som.
believe it to be too far from the cen

factory. "While the actions of the board to
be elected locally are purely advisory,
much interest centers In the sclectlor.
of the members. Inasmuch ns the
group will be associated In working
out Initial policies or the local unit.
One member of the group of five will
be elected to represent the Grande
Ronde valley on tho board of direct
ors. Representative men mentioned
as potential timber for positions on
tho advisory board thus far include
Frank McKennon, Alicel and mid

People Can End
War, Handsaker.
TellsChurchs
Arbitration, Co-operation
and Understanding of
Each Others Problems
all Necessary.
"The American people can end war
and do It in our time of they get
on the Job," said J. J. Handsaker, of
Portland, associate secretary of the
National Council for Prevention of
War, at the union meeting of the
La Grande churches at the Baptist
church last night.
"This statement Is not original with
me, it Is from Major General John F.
O'Ryan, of the U. S. army, one of
the leading generals of tho World
War," Mr, Handsaker continued.
"We could end war between nations
Just as wo havo ended legal war
between Indlvluals, cities and states
having courts and legislatures, by ar
bitration and conciliation and then
accepting these decisions as final. The
world court Is as Inevitable as a Jus
tice court and although we may not
always get Justice in a court, there
is nothing that we can suffer in any
court that equals the Injustice of
war."
"Tho London treaty should be and
doubtless will be ratified this week,"
he said. "For the first time in his
tory three great naval powers have
matched their strength around a
table rather than on the high seas
and they have found that the safely
of every nation lies not In arming
against others, but In cooperation
with them that all may be safe to
gether. "President Hoover says another
world war would bo tho "cemetery of
white civilization' and we must build
and build rapidly the machinery of
pcaco so that when the occasions of
war comes, as they arc bound to do,
diplomats will be accustomed to set

and will settle big ones without first
slaughtering tho world'B choicest
youth.

Excepting only tho ocean-favored
New England and Pacific coast states
every section of the country had 100

following a sun-seared sabbath. Each
section, too, counted the cost in lives

A survey or the 48 states amounted
In essence, to the simple grammatical
Job of comparing an adjective hot,

an official 112 degrees, rated the
superlative. Virginia, Marland, West
Virginia saw red in their thermo

Deaths were reported from widely

were numerous.
