RANCHES III Alt THE PRINCIPAL CITIES
A ITER THE WAR WH AT?
When peace comes, the world's
commerce will have a tendenocy to
flow back into its old channels. Im
port and export trade will be renew
ed and duties must be paid. Be
cause of depreciation in paper money
and fluctuation in its value these du
ties will have to be paid, in most
cases, in gold and, as a result, un
less suitable preventive measures
are installed, the financial world may
at any time be greatly disturbed and
re.-baps demoralized. The welfare of
tlio world after the war will depend
largely upon the stability of trade,
and to stabilize trad" there should
be n sound, well established system
oT i iteiimtional fin;in"c.
While it may be that, the world
i not yet.jead" if pdont' the ideal
plan of a universal money system
with a tinjde unit if vake for all
naliors, it would seem ti be entirely
feasible to establish an internai'onal
financial board, similar to the Fd
evnl Reserve board of this coctrjr.
Such an institution would undoubted
ly exert a powerful influence in
steadying world finance and trade; it
could act ai an international clear
ing house; it might regulate, to a
large exlcnt, the ebb and flow of
p:o!d; it would have a powerful in
fluence in dslcrmining interest and
exchange .rates; it would provide "a
safe method for dealing with the
delicate problems likely to arise re
garding the huge outstanding quan
tities, of war bonds; and it could
also warrant the issuance of gold
notes which might prove to be the
first step towards the adoption of a
uniform international money system.
The plan also would afford. an op
portunity to utilize the best brains of
tho world in dealing not only "with
problems of finance and t'acle, but
also with the many questio-s which
ere likely to arise in c innnction with
tho, adjustment of international re
lations after the war.
THREE MEN 'AND THE VISION
THEY SAW
, (By Bruco Barton)
In a certain city dwelt three men.
And by accident of birth one of them
is a Catholic and one is a Protestant
and one is a Jew.
For thirty years they- have egag
cd in business side by side, and the
Catholic has not dealt with the Pro
testant; and the Catholic and the
Protestant have had no dealings with
tho Jew.
"What is he to me?" each man
had said. "He is pot of my faith: I
will avoid him."
So for thirty years they have dwelt
together, strangers in a friendly
world.
Then came the shadow of a fear
ful war. And out of those three
homes three boys went forth alone.
Three fathers waited heart-worn for
the letters from over there.
"There are Soldiers of Friendli
ness over here," the boys wrote
home. "They bring us chocolate, and
motion piotures, and baseball, and
good lectures; and the tnemory of
mother and of God."
"Help those friendly agencies
when you have the chance," each boy
wroto home.
So it happened that the three, fath
ers found themselves working shoul
der to shoulder in a great campaign
for funds.
Not as a Catholic and a Protestant
and a Jew but as good citizens unit
ed in a common cause.
And as they worked they came to
know each other, and they were
ashamed that for so many years
I hey had been strangers side by side, j
"Surely this is one of the conipen- i
sations of war," they said, "that in j
our deeper live for our boys wo have!
learned a new respect for ' one an- i
other." j
So a new spirit was born into that j
city. A3 though in its heart it had j
discovered something of the greater j
re'gion. who-e God is Father, and ;
whose fuiith and creed are Jove.

The dairymen and milk distributors
of Oregon City, together with some
natrons of the latter, held a meet
!n? in the Commercial club rooms
Tuesday night looking to an increase
in the price of milk in this city and
vicinity. For some tme tre dairy
men have been dissatisfied with the
prices paid by the local retailers,
f'nimimr that, they could send their
'ivndi'ct to Portland and receive a
much better1 price thfh here.
The distributors have mode two
or three increases during the past
vear until milk was retailing for
$3.72 per quart per month when paid
in advance, or $4.50 when not. paid
until the end of the month, while a
nint was selling at 8 cets when paid
in advance, or 9 cents at the end of
the month, and they felt that their
trade would hardly stand for a fur
ther increase. However, it has got
ten to the point where an increase is
practically necessary if a supply of
milk is to be furnished the dealers,
