It is customary when sending news stories over the Asso ciated Press automatic printers, to precede the story With a "slug" which gives a brief idea of the contents. For example, the word "baseball" would precede a baseball story, or the word "Hoover" would precede a story about the president. Monday afternoon, after reading about a weak stock niar- Ket m New York City and a sluggish wheat" market in Chicago, two iterr.i came in on the printer, slugged "Biz C heer" in other words, business cheer. The editorial writer immediately commandeered them and herewith are excerpts from the. two stories: PORTLAND, July 18 (AP) The Oregon Journal said today that the home loan bank discount bill which passed congress in its final session Saturday night, mid which is assured presidential signature, "will have a three-fold effect in the Northwest which, it is believed, will do much toward strength ening business and creating a better feeling among the public." . ' ; These benefits are: "Increase the demand for lumber for home con- ,., ' .struction and improvement. -"Gradually ease the home mortgage situation at a time when its need is greatest. "Put on the market a new type of federal bond of unquestioned security which wiii prove attractive . to investors." Kenneth D. Dawson, ship owner and director in various corporations, said "all types of business en- , terprise will lie 'benefited not only by increasing demand for lumber but by the new feeling of secur ity it is bound to develop. It is creative and highly beneficial legislation, the effect of which will be felt for many years." This is certainly good news to us, for we all know what an increased demand for lumber would mean to Union and Wal lowa counties. But here is the second item, which is of even greater significance. CHICAGO, July 18 (AP) Just about the hap- ,' piest industry at this stage of the economic situation is that which deals with livestock. , , In the "yards" of Chicago, focus of this great' business, a steady advance of record length in the value of hogs has ix?en closely watched. Observed, too, has been the gain which has made cattle the first faun commodity to top 1931 best prices. And on the farms, although an estimated S100.- 000,000 has been added to valuations by these gains, no stampede to sell has developed. Last week there was a reaction in hogs but it did not take place until 31 successive dailv price advances had raised the top from $3.30 on May 28 to ?f.;V a week ago. Cattle averaged $8.25 last week compared with $7.1)5 for the corresponding week last year. . President Charles A. Wilson of the Chicago livestock exchange tonus the livestock gains "sea sonal" but added: "The rise from the lows of last winter has been very marked. Hogs, which reached the lowest price in 35 veal's, and cattle, have made a gviod recovery." Others at the yards claim the upward movement has only started and sonitf enthusiasts assert live stock may usuip the position forecasters usually reserve to grains as lcll-wether for a forward move ment of commodity prices generally. They point out the shortage of meat is still acute and cite that June hog-receipts were the smallest since 18.1. The cattle shortage is accounted the most pronounced since ISS-t. The packers rejoice along with the producers. Their inventories, after a period of write-downs for diminishing values of products stored, will bene fit. And the railroads likewise are happy over the meat-shipping prosjiect. President Ralph P.udd of the Burlington lailmad, said last week, "-N"o other thing since the depression began has heartened me so much as the continued rise in livestock prices." He added the "rest of the country cannot !e re stored (to prosperity) until the farmer has pur chasing power." And the farmer takes courage at those concrct" ' ' results of the recent movement: A carload of hogs sells S30O higher than a month ago; A carload of cattle brings SG50 more than at the low point in May. It is not necessary to interpret these news items, for every one knows the application. But an interesting fact is that an improvement in the market for hogs and cattle will natur- 1H6.T &W IS LIABLE "lO POKE A SHOTGOM Out th vmiuder akV ROVKl US ' FER DiG&iM' UP H- LAWM BOSTHM' ma DUHta rEW FIRE- VgOOD , lHROVlM CAMS AROUkJD AN MAKlM .SUCH A MESS T7 WHV, NlQ, u vurviLi-ua' "THiMi O' SAWIK1 AMvttnu' 'Wb rcLLtR HOVSJ KIN M?

Republicans were quick to charge that Speaker Garner s adamant stand on his re lief bill was the opening shot In his campaign for the vice-presidency. "He has made very plain." cried the republicans, "his platform for the vice presidency ... to align the general public against the business and financial Interests of the coun try. . "It Is the worst type of political bunkum and demagoguery," shouted othera. Perhaps when the speaker be comes, as he thinks he will become. the next vlcj president Df the United States ..." yeUed another.

Ve all sincerely hope that this is the beginning of the long-awaited upturn, and if it is we can look for wheat, cot ton, and other important commodities to begin an upward climb soon, also. The return to normal will not come over night, but once the cycle is started, nothing can stop it.
