But the gloom wasn't re. fleeted In the new occupant of the , White House, lor his verdict or the past and his hopes for the future were expressed aptly In one sen tence: ' "In the large view, wo have reached a higher degreo of comfort - and security than ever existed be tore In the history of the world." : ' It remained now, he believed, only to perfect a few weak links to in sure a continuance of that post-war prosperity. There were throe prob lems immediately to be solved The first was to combat the "widespread disregard and dlsobedi ence for law." The second was a limited revision of the tariff, and the third, farm relief legislation, i Special Session Culled The president convened congress In special session. By June 14. a law had been enacted setting up the federal farm board In the words of Hoover himself "the most Impor tant measure ever passed by con gress in aid of a largo Industry, A law enforcement commission has been appointed charged by tbo president with obtaining an "ac curate determination - of fact , , . following them with constructive, courageous conclusions. , . ." ' With the revision of the tariff, 'however, difficulty was encountered. In the house a bill was passed on M)ny 28 which I changed prevailing .rates on some 1000 Items and added new ones. In the senate, however, It dragged on for months. In the midst of this came that memorable day In October, 1D2D, when the stock market crashed. Front then until the conclusion of President Hoover's first year In of fice the days were marked by steadily diminishing Industrial ac tivity. Hot only the president, but the nation's leaders in general, refused to believe that prevailing conditions would continue. A few weeks after the crash Presi dent Hoover said that the federal reserve "had carried the wholo credit system through the crlslls without Impairment," and that for eign trade expansion and agricul tural prices reflected returning con fidence. He accordingly formulated a poli cy reflecting this attitude and with dramatically swift moves put his program Into action. Six weeks after the crash he reports! to con gress that he hod: , f". . . -Instituted systematic and voluntary moasurea of cooperation With business Institutions, state and municipal authorities to make .certain that the fundamental bunl- Three Problems Faced Him When He Took Office Law Enforcement, Tariff Revision, Farm Kelief -v- i If f7 4ti 4 ' r var ' i'rnl i Almost three mill a hulr years In the White House, must of the time K"'IIH''K with problems of a magni tude unurullclcd in peuco times, have left their mark on the features of President Hoover.

RehilnK- ton, of Pendleton, were In Cove Bun- day. The bishop,' assisted by Rev. Clarence Kopp, of La Grande, held services in the Episcopal church Sun- day evening. Several of the La Grande choir came over and with Mrs. Remington at the organ added much to the beauty of the service. A bap tismal service was held when Thomas Richard Conklln, infant son of Mr. and Mrs. T. R. Conklln, received the holy rite. Among the visitors were Mr. and Mrs. Carl Helm and Robert. of La Grande, and Miss Vertle Pleser, of union, Mrs T. R.

Wapes shall not be re duced and efforts wilt bo made to expand construction to assist In equalizing deficits in unemploy ment." Tho president urged on enlarged program of (1) federal construction. (2) rnllroad expansion, and (3) re duction of taxes by congress as a demonstration or the confidence of of the administration. ' Howover, tho failure of business recovery as tho months wont on had Its effect on President Hoover's op timistic attitude. On October 2, 1030, before the American Bankers' association at Cleveland, he ad mitted that the "depression Is world wide. Our country over-speculated in securities a year ago with great losses. ..." But tho president was Insistent that ovents abroad should not deter America's recovery. Ho therefore set for his adminis tration a rigid study and considera tion of domestic problems. Thero wero two notublo exceptions. The London naval conference, due large ly to tho president's initiative, re sulted in tho fleets of tha chief naval powers being brought under treaty control. And about this time lie urged tho senate to give favorablo considera tion to tho protocol for American ad herence to the World Court. . Standing out prominently were his wholehearted advocacy of the expansion of public and private works, approval of waterway devel opment and his championing of the theory that states and municipali ties were tho proper agencies for unemployment relief. Tariff Bill Approved Along with these came his ap proval of the Hawley-Smoot tariff bill. Ho organized a drought relief program! for tho ' southwest. He summoned a national conference on child health and protection. He vetoed two veteran relief bills which congress passed over his veto. But all the while the president's mjajor concern was to restore the country to normal times. He had a firm faith that it could be done by tho country Itsnlf and without the help of tho rest of the world. it, COVE PERSONALS 43$$3!SS333$gS By Mra. A. (J.
