They need it right away. Thu fsrners are trying to gel the Gov ernment to help them. It can do so in severs! ways, they ssy. One way would bo to increase the amounts loanable in the Federal Farm Loan system. An other wsy would be to allow the Federal Reset ve banks to rediscount farm paper at twice the length of present maximum limit for that paper’s matu rity. A third wsy- economically un sound, we believe, and yet powerfully urged at preaant in the United States Senate—would bo to form a Govern ment agency with a capital of a hundred million dollars and authority to issue a b.Ilion dollars’ worth of bonds for the purpose of buying farm products and exporting them, acting as sgent for sny producer or dealer of these products and making all agricultural exports. Why should a new Government agency be necessary, and further, why should a new debt be incurred (already out rageously overburdened taxpayers would have to provide the hundred mil lion dolI»»«.) when we can utilize an existing agency and its available credits of several hundred million dollars in ho'ping toward the needed loans? Farm loans should represent actual business, and such loans as the Government makes should be confined io those for which credit cannot be found because ordinary banking facil ities have become inadequate fur the necessary financial advances. But there should be no disposition to use such mesne to aid producers land dealers who wish merely to be enabled to hold slot k and so stiffen prices. Our transporters are also trying to get the Government to help them. They still owe the Government fur some of t'ie raiiwsy extensions and improve ments it made during the war. On the other hand, the Government is still ow ing them even larger sums for unpaid rentals, for lack of maintenance of equipment, and depreciation. The contract covering the Government's railway operations during the war provided that the railways should be returned to their owners in as good condition as when taken over. In its ideal of efficiency, however, the Gov ernment made extravagant expendi tures and huge wage increases, both meeting with adverse critism from practical railway operators. Despite the Government’s efforts, ttiere was serious under-maintenance and the roads were returned in poor condition. The Railway Administration has de clined to pay its debts until the amounts owing to the Government sre deducted. Ordinarily the railway companies would issue bonds to cover expendi tures for extensions and improvements. Why should nut they be permitted to do so now, delaying cash payment, say, ten years, and why should not the War Finance Curporation take the railway notes and bonds, sell them, and turn over a substantial part of the Govern ment's debt to the railways—say, five hundred million dollars in cash to them? The President asks Congress to author ize the corporation thus to help both agriculture and transportation. For the first measure of relief there is moral obligation. For the second there is otdigation both moral and contractual. —The Outlook. QUALITY COUNTS Frank Emerick vs Emma V.

There waa much enthusiasm and interest ex hibited in this meeting and we are pleased to snnounce that arrangements for the celebration are progressing rap idly and harmoniously. At this meeting the executive com mittee reported that the Mayor of the City of Dayton had been appointed by them as President of the Day, and that James Wakefied had been appointed Marshal of the Day. At the present time the main speaker of the day has not been secured, but efforts are being made to secure one. A number of men who were auggested have not been able to accept the invitaiton, but it is hoped to be able to have the speaker within the next few days. Final arrangements were made by the committees and the general meet ing to have a free bartecue on that day. The bands will be furnished by the cit ies uf McMinnville sad Newberg, and in all probability the ball game will be one <>f the county teams and the local boys, but this part of the program has not been definitely decided. The invitation to the various towns has been accepted by them and they all agreed io have a representative of their city here to give a abort address on that day. The matter has been pre sented to the Yambill County Commun ity Federation, which organization vot ed to give the celebration it unanimous support. A committee has been ap pointed to take, the matter of opening the pavement between Dayton and Newberg a few days ahead of time, up with the highway commission. Another feature of the day will be the Local Street Carnival at night, at which time it is expected Vave a grand jubliee. The parade in the morn ing will be known as a Coimc Parade. It is the desire of the committee and the public in general to have thia cele bration one of the biggest events ever slagged in Yamhill county and from the support that it is receiving here and in every town in the county the success of the affair is absolutely as sured. The Live Stock Shows This Year The general business depression has hit nobody harder than it has the live ■tock man, and aa a result nothing but the determination of the breeders and public-spirited citizens in city and country who realize the importance of the live stock shows can prevent great curtailment in many of the expositions this season. Perhaps nothing has done more to stimulate the improvement of all kinds of live stock than the great shows that have been developed at the fairs and the winter exposition. It would be a calamity to the industry and to agri culture as a whole for any of these im portant events to be omitted this year because of financial stringency. This is the year when beeders, busi ness men and the public as a body should put theia shoulders to the wheel and “put over” expositiona of live ■tock second to none ever held in this tenitory.
