Victrola as an instrument by which to
judge others a standard.

SOLUTION TO WATER
SUPPLY PROBLEM AT
WEST LINN OUTLINED
Pipe Across Willametle to be
Hung on Cable While
Bridge is Down
A tentative solution for the problem
of supplying the city of West Lina
and vicinity with water during the
time that the new bridge across the
Willamette river is under construction
has been arranged
Within a few days a contract is to
be entered into between the West
Linn water commission and A. Guth
rie, contractors on the new bridge,
for the maintenance of a suspension
pipe line. At present the water main,
which serves the west side, runs over
the old bridge, which is to be torn
clown about tlia first of the year.
In order to keep the service open
the new main will be stretched on a
cable which will be suspended from
wooden towers or poles to be placed
upon each side of he Willamette. The
wdter commission recently purchased
a new supply of pipe which will be
used to carry the main service ovtr
th,e new bridge. This pipe will be
temporarily stretched upon the cable,
and when the new bridge 5s built, viV
be placed there.
It is estimated that the cost of ibis
temporary construction will be in the
neighborhood of $3 750. Thi8 sum,
under the proposed contract, will be
borne by the water commission of
West Linn, the contractor doing the
work.
The new pipe which is to be used
is 10 inches in diameter, and will re
place the old 8 ;nch pipe which is now
in use.

SAYSJANKER
JOHN R. HUMPHRYS IS
BACK FROM TRIP
Convention at Los Angeles is
Attended; Condition of
Finance Reviewed
A general feeling of cpt'nusin re
garding the financial condition of the
nation pervades the country generally
according to John R. Humphrys, cash
ier of the Bank of Commerce who has
Just returned from Los Angpelcs where
he attended the 47th annual conven
tion of the American Banker's asso
ciation "The corner on the road to normal
conditions has been turned," said Mr.
Huniphrys. "The improvement will be
gradual, but it is the opinion of the
best financial brains of both this
country and England that no relapse
need be contemplated."
Exchange Held Important '
One of the principle things which
occupied the minds of the bankers,
according to Mr. Humphrys, Is the ad
justment of foreign exchange and the
equalization of the international
money market. This hinges, he says,
upon the proper handling of the ex
port and import trade. The conven
tion approved of the Ter Mulan Bond
plan as the solution of the greatest
difficulty now in the way of interna
tional credits. Under this system, the
importers of foreign nations would get
their governments to pest bonds, guar
anteeing payment for the merchan
dise. The bonds would be posted with
the exporting nation, and thus the
exporters could levy against them in
payment for their shipments. This
would guarantee payment, and would
alleviate conditions so that the ini
porters would not have to pay in cash
as they have been attempting to, but
would be able to pecure their im
ports on guaranteed credit. Ter Mulan
is a Holland financier, and is the or
iginator of the bonding proposals
which bear his name.
Reserve Bank Lauded
As far as financial conditions arc
concerned within the United States,
Mr. Humphrys says that the Federal
Reserve Bank is deserving of much
credit in the stabilizing of affairs.
"Tlje reserve bank," he says, "has
functioned well, and all the prominent
financial figures seem satisfied with
its work." Interest rates bo member
banks are being gradually reduced, it
was pointed out at the convention,
and this will in turn have its affect
upon the interest rates in domestic
loans, which even now are showing a
slight decrease. Indications, says Mr
Humphrys, point to the continued re
duction of interest rates in forthcom
ing issues of treasury notes.
The convention was attended by be
tween 3,000 and 4,000 bankers repre-

senting 24,000 banks with resources of
more than $36,000,000,000.
The convention, at the closing ses
sion, passed resolutions favcrtng ttte
repeal of the excess profits tax, anil
suggesting a sales tax . as the most
satisfactory method for raising the
tremendous revenues tor the support
of governmental activities. The con
vention also voiced their disapproval
of all legislative proposals tending to
inject further government activities in
to business, and stated that many of
the remedies proposed by congress to
meet the present situation would do
more harm than good through a dis
turbance of the "normal operation of
economic laws.
Economy Said Need
Economy in governmental expendi
tures was voiced in the resolutions
adopted by the bankers. Unneces
sary appropriations tending to in
crease the national debt were cen
sored. The move toward a limitation
of armament was endorsed for "hu
manitarian reasons in addition to its
lessening of taxation." The conven
tion also recommended that the bank
ers act in complete sympathy for any
movement toward the increase o f
home building throughout the nation.
Alcho their resolutions were passed
before the announcement of the pend
ing railroad strike, the convention
stated as the concensus of" its belief
that "the present high wages of rail
road employes must be readjusted and
shop and work agreements entered
upon, as before the war period, must
be revised.".
Rail Strike Attacked
Mr. Humphrys believes that the
pending railroad strike will have a
tendency to throw a slight pessimism
over business, but he does noa believe
that the depression will be more than
a temporary condition or that it wil'
have any lasting disastrous effects.
It was the general feeling Mr.
Humphrys says, that confidence ' is
being jajpidly restjored in financial
America, an indication of which is
contained in the fact that a steady
gain in the par value of Liberty Bonds
is being seen, not only in one or two,
but in all issues.
Charge Against Late
Doctor is Dismissed
Upon receipt of official word to the
effect that Dr. J. P. Graham, of Port
land had died from injuries received
in the wreck of the booze car at New,
Era September 6, Judge J. U. Camp
bell dismissed the indictment against
him.
Graham, with J. L. Smith and Mor
ris Galbreath, was indicted by the
grand jury on charges of transport
ing liquor. Smith later pled guilty
and Galbreath was cleared. Accord
ing lo a statement signed -by Smith,
the late doctor was innocent of com
plicity in the affair.

e Farmer Today Is a Business Man
HE does not run his farm in the haphazard fashion he
did ten years ago. It's his business. He figures his
costs and profits. .
He knows, of course, what he gets out of the productive
acres of his farm and how much he is paying out in taxes
on the idle unproductive stump and swamp land that brings
in nothing.
That Is Why He Is Clearirrg Afore Land Eoery Year
It's just good business. Livery acre cleared and planted
means more profit every year. The clearing cost is usually
. more than covered by the first crop.
More land is being cleared, too, because of the manufacture
of dynamite made for this purpose, which makes cue work
easier, quicker and more economical.
