OREGON CITY, ENTERPRISE, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1921.
Condition of Paper
Market is Analyzea
The unstability of the paper market
according to W. P Hawley. president
of the Hawley Pulp and Paper com
pany, is to be attributed to foreigu
competition and the rate of interna
tional exchange as it affects the Ger
man trade.
Saturday, :n discussing the condi
tion of the industry, Mr. Hawley said
that no curtailment of production was
contemplated at his mill at present,
but that the future was uncertain, and
he would not be greatly surprised if
through lack of orders they would be
forced to close down a portion of
their machinery. The Hawley mill
is at present running to capacity.
The announcement of a 20 per cent
cut in the output of the Crown-Willamette
mill at West Linn is the first
local effect of the condition cf the
paper trade. This- cul, effective Sat
urday, was announced by the West
Linn office Friday, and will reduce
their schedule to five days a week as
well as necessitate the ckJsing down
cf two of their machines.
yVages Held Stable
The condition of the labor market,
Mr. Hawley feels, has only an inci
dental effect upon the trade. Any dis
position to make a reduction of
wages, he says, could be easily ac
complished on account of the large
number of men who are applying for
wor.k Wages he believes, will re
: main stabilized. His own mill made
a reduction last May, approximately
the- same time as the International cut
their figure, and they will remain
standard on this scale
The great trouble with market con
ditions, says Mr. Hawley, is the com
petition of the German manufacturers,
who are given an unfair advantage
due to the rate of exchange. With
lower costs of production, they are
able to retail their product here at a
price far below the current figures of
the American plants. The fact that
the dollar is far above the relative
value of the mark, makes it possible
for the Teutons to export to this
country, and in accepting American
money as payment, make their pro
fits through the increased amount of
their own specie which the American
exchange will purchase. The Ger
man manufacturers have been able to
lay paper down in New York for 3 1-2
cent3 a pound where the cost of man
ufacture to the American concerns is
from 5 to 6 cents. This difference,
says Mr. Hawley, is not one that is
the outgrowth of clean-cut industrial'
competition, but is rather the result
of an unstable situation in the foreign
exchange Market.
Federal Aid Asked
Th;; American Pulp and paper man
ufactures, through, their national as
sociation, are appealing to the treas
ury department of the government to
take some action to relieve this con
dition, and to place such regulations
upon imports as wili establish a firm
basis for foreign competition.
Added to the fact that the German
manufacturers are enabled to dump
Their product upon the American mar
kets, the papermen of this country
are facing a serious condition in tha
competition of the Canadian manu
facturers. Mr. Hawley estimates that
the Canadian and British Columbia
mills are sending 1000 tons of pap
and pulp a day into .this country. No
duty is charged upon these imports,
and the Canadians, with their tr"
mendous water power facilities, larg
timber holdings and the relatively
.low standard of their labor market,
are in a position to make a seriou
indenture upon the market of the
American product.
As far as the operation of the mills
is concerned, Mr. Hawley feels that
conditions are far too unsettled to
warrant any definite statement. "We
will keep running," he said, "as long
as there are orders to fill. When the
market for the product falls off, we
will be forced to curtail our output."
Storage Not Practical
It is impossible for the mills, he ex
plained, to keep on producing and
storing the finished product for the
reason that the financial burden of
roIti:n?: so much stock would be too
great, and that the risk i& too large,
as the demand when the market did
open up, might require a different
class of stock than what is VemS
turned out by the mills" now.
While not pessimistic over the out
iook Mr. Hawley points out that the
market has been characterized by a
steady falling off for some time, and
he does not look for an adjustment
of conditions in the immediate future.
Federal aid to equalize the foreign
competitive market, it is felt, will do
more than any other one thing to
normalize conditions. During thf
present period the mills will have to
be governed in their production by
the demand for paper, and when this
increase, their machines will be
speeded up in proportion.

IMMIMIUIIIIUiaM
The Crardner Menace
The escape of Roy Gardner from the federal peni
tentiary on McNeil's island marks another chapter in
the career of that criminal. Gardner's methods are
spectacular. He loves the limelight, and as a seeker of
publicity he shines like a star. He professes utter con
" tempt for the officers of the law and when his latest cap
ture was effected by a woman at Centralia a few months
ago, he boasted that he would regain his freedom. It is
possible that he has made good his boast.
Gardner's escapades and his ability to remain at.
large while man-hunters were on his trial have won for
him a misplaced sympathy from people whose paths are
far removed from the thug and the felon. There is a
certain devil-may-care attitude of Gardner that appears
to be attractive to those whose thoughts do not pene
trate to the fact that he is an enemy to society and that
men of his stripe are dangerous so long as they are at
large. In short, he is no better than any other criminal,
and from the minute he ceases to be an inmate of a pri
son, he becomes a distinct menace to any community
where he may appear.
It may be true that Gardner has never shed human
blood, but he is likely to, so long as he is out in the open
with a price upon his head. Criminal history is full of
incidents where highwaymen, burglars, sneak-thieves
and law-breakers of this class, who have never fired a
gun with fatal effect, have managed to escape from con
trol and who have not hesitated to slaughter indiscrimin
ately in defense of liberty.' The man who breaks jail
and who faces life imprisonment if recaptured, has little
hope for the future and he may usually be depended on
to ruthlessly kill anyone who crosses his path while he
is skulking about in a frantic effort to avoid a return to
a living death.
Gardner is no common prisoner. His activity
stamps him as rather uncommon, but while their is a
thrill for the onlooker in the chase, there will be a relief
when he is finally rounded up and placed again among
the forgotten and the hopeless who are best behind pen
itentiary walls.

ROSEMONT CLUB WILL ENTER BIG
EXHIBIT IN COUNTY FAIR AT CANBY
CLACKAMAS FARMERS MEET IN
FIRST PICNIC AT GLADSTONE PARK
Farmers for over Clackamas county
t nearly 2000 of them gathered at
Gladstone Monday for the first annual
picnic of the farm bureau. Judged
from outward appearance, a casual
spectator would have had hard work
to tell whether it was a convention of
bankers or of merchants. Everyone
came in automobiles and the several
hundred machines parked on the
grounds contained the average Pr
cent of high-grade cars.
The addresses dealt in big figures
and Vice President Smith of the state
farm bureau, a resident of Sherman
county, where he is engaged in wheat
raising, told of the progress ,of ,the
wheat pool which 'will handle and
market 30,000,000 bushels of grain
grown in the Northwest and necessi
tate the advancing of $20,000,000 to
the growers before the grain is sold.
Already 1200 car loads have been sold
at prices ranging from $1.00 to $1.30
per bushel.
Manager Ward of the Oregon Wool
and Mohair Growers' association, gave
an optimistic review of the progress 4
being made in marketing the wool
and mohair of the 1800 members of
the association.
R. C. Pollock, assistant secretary of
the national organization and en
gaged as a national organizer, speak
ing along the lines of co-operative
marketing, said that farmers had
learned that their big problem was
the successful marketing of their
cropst after production. Mr. Pollock
told of the beginning of the farm
bureau organization, March 20, 1911,
la Bioome county, K. Y.
That market methods are in chaotic
state was illustrated by Mr. Pollock
who cited a visit to the truck fields
of New Jersey last fail when the to
mato harvest was on and saw hun
dreds of acres "where the grower was
receiving 14 cents for a basket con
taining seven-eights of a bushel. In
New York, e'ghty miles distant, ths
same tomatoes were bringing at re
tail a price so prohibitive that the
poorer people could not buy them,
and on a dining car one was forced
to pay' 35 cents for three slices of the
same tomatoes.
George H. Mansfield, president cf
the state organization, spoke on leg
islation and finances.
"We are not in politics, but we
stand here to make the politicians
tremble," he said. Mr. Mansfield
scored those senators and congress
men who voted lavish contribbutions
to the railways and failed to respond
when the soldier's bonus bill was up
for consideration.

noon as the result of injuries sus
tained early Saturday mornirg.
Gortmaker was badly scalded when

A party composed of Dr. C. A
Stuart, D. F. Burns, Frank Plummer,
Cecil Stuart, son of Dr. Stuart, of this
city, and Zac Spangle, of Dayton, Ore
gon, uncle of Dr. Stuart, has returned
from their hunting trip in the wilds
of southern Oregon near Olalla, and
succeeded in getting a big deer. The
lucky man in the party was Burns,
who brought the animal down with one
shot. Venison was enjoyed during the
time the men were in camp, and a
fair sample brought here to show that
they got at least one deer.
Leaving here about two weeks ago
in a Ford, that Dr. Stuart bought es
pecially for the trip, instead of taking
his big car as he did last year, the?
first went to Dayton to get Spangle.
When he saw the Ford in front of his
homei he exclaimed, "What did you
bring that d n Ford along for?
Why, don't you know we cant get as
far as Amity in that 'flivver'!" "Never
mind about the 'flivver'," replied the
Doctor, "but get your duds and other
bagigage in here, and hurry up about
it!" Spahgle did and the Ford rambled i
right along, climbing hills, passing
over rickety bridges, over rocks that
aopared in the road, and several
times attempting to climb trees, when
one happened to be in the way, but
with a good driver, Cecil Stuart, the
trip was made in safety to Roseburg,
w'here provisions were bought.
Everything in the store they visited
looked good to the hunters, for their
appetites were beginning to show up.
When Olalla was reached, Spangle
was the first of the passengers to
alight, and taking his hat in hand,
stood in front of automobile exclaimed
"I take my hat off to you fair lady,
for no other machine in the world
could have made better time and ar
rive in such good condition as you
have done."
Here they were given a most cordial
greeting by their old time friend,
Frank Lyons, a mountaineer bachelor,
who knows more about, that country
than any other man in the state. Lyons
had been looking for the party during
the day, and when the Ford appeared
in sight, one would have thought that
a pack of coyotes had made their en
trance into that country. The voices
of the Ford passengers and Lyons
mingled together echoing through the
canyons beyond, could be heard for
miles away, which was believed to
have been the reason the scarcity of
deer, when the hunting days arrived.
Camp was pitched in a picturesque
spot, and located near running water.
The first meal was prepared by Frank
Pluirsmer, who proved such an artist
that he was at once voted cook of the
camp. , Each morning following ths
breakfast Plummer 'mapped cut" his
menu for the other meals, (providing
wood and water were s'jpplied). All
other members of the party agreed
to keep up their contract by provid
ing these, and thereafter no one lott
the table feeling hungry, for Plummer
served everything from a flap jack
o custard pies that Dr. Stuart says
compared with anything his mother or
grandmother made, and these were
hard to beat.
When eggs or fresh milk became
low, a farmer's home about one mile
away was visited. The3e were secured,
as well as butter and buttermilk. Tha
campers were determined to have good
feeds even if the deer was scarce.
Several of the party who were fam
iliar with the country, new that rat
tlesnakes wer numerous, find a care
ful watch for the reptiles were kept.
Cecil Stuart was the first in camp to
discover them and the first to secure
the rattles, for it was while he was On
a jaunt through the wilderness look
ing for chipmunks, looking skyward,
just happened to gaze at the ground,
and to his surprise found two big
rattlers coiled up and waiting for him.
As is the usual custom for such
snakes to sound their rattle before
striking their victim, this is the time
of the year when they strike without
warning. "Banc! Bang! Baas!" was
heard by the hunters at camp, and be
lieving that Stuart had come across
a bear or deer, they started out to see
what luck the young hunter had. No
sooner had they prepared to start
when Stuart made his appearance with
a rattlesnake, and hurrying to the
spot tae other snake that made its dis
appearance at shot of the gun was kill
ed by Zac Spangle. There were eight
ratties on one of the snakes and seven
on the other. Stuart wore canvas leg
gings which proved little protection
against the rattlers, and the young
man is now considering himself lucky
by looking down at the right time,
otherwise he would no doubt have had
a serious battle with the rattlers, who
were ready to spring when making his
appearance.
It was while on the chipmunk expe
dition that Stuart came across a large
deer, though realizing that the gun he
had would be useless, had the satis
faction of taking several shots at the
fleeing animal.
After a few days in the wilderness,
the first and only deer, a large one,
was shot by . Burns. Steaks were en
joyed for several days and the meat
thoroughly relished by the men.
After a few days in csCtnp an acci
dent occurred that somewhat marred
the pleasures of the party. As the men
were making their way down a steep
and dangerous incline, the hob nails
m the high top boot of Dr. C. A. Stuart
caught in a root,, and pitching him
head long, he w-as caught between the
steep bank and a tree With the timely
arrival of Burns, who was following
him, ho was extricated from his peril
ous position with much difficulty by
Burrs. Had not the trees been there
he would undoubtedly have been pitch
ed headlong down the cliff. Dr.
Stuart's ankle was bady sprained and
he was suffering much pain. He
was assisted to camp, and given every
attention by his comrades. The ankle
and foot were blackened, and mem
beis of the party suggested returning
to Oregon City. The doctor, who has
the grit that goes with his profession, ,
scoffed at the idea, and only exclaim
ed that he would be camp tender and
would be o. k- within a few days. The
doctor's grip, equipped with the neces
sities, used in case of accident made
every attention to his foot possible;
he was able to hobble about camp,
and each day could see the improve
ment until he was able to leave and
mak? the purchases at the. farm a
mile away, making' the trip in tha
Ford, while the other members of the
party (continued their hunting and
fishing. Eggs were purchased at 25
cents a dozen, and the fish basket of
Dr. Stuart came in handy to take to
"market" each time this would ba
brought back full of fresh eggs from
the farm.,
There was plenty of trout, and all
got their share, and the men provided
fish for all meals. Dr. Stuart says ho
will always remember the deer meat,
fish and custard pies, pies being made
by Plummer, when four and five at a
time would be made, and devoured in
short notice.
