But Not 'Always From the Dallas News As a general thing,- the hand that rooks the cradle is a stranger to the foot that kicks the clutch out. $1,500,000 IN finally determined by the snpreme court of the United- States and under the terms of the Chamberlain-Ferris revestment act the government is pay ing the taxes due with interest 'and penalties up to June 9, 1918.- .

The adjustment "of the- taxes upon the latter is to be made when the question of legal ownership is finally u on? '4 f MONEY PLENTIFUL FOR , LOANS ON REALTY IN PORTLAND; RATE. LOW Dealers Say Offerings at 6 Per Cent Never Were So Heavy in Past 10 Years, ;The local mortgage situation Is Just as acute, from the viewpoint of a ple thora of money offered as It has been at any time during the past two or three years. The Liberty loan drive seems to have had no effect on those lenders who usually seek real estate security for their loans. One broker reports that extending over a period of 10 years, he has never seen anything like the amount of money that is now offered in Portland real estate. This condition, of course, does not apply to the banks, as "bankers for the most part have been conserving their cash for some time, in order to get ready to take care of the demands of the gov eminent. It is the individual holdet of money who is anxious to get his bank account on an income basis, who is re sponsible for the unusually heavy of ferings for lending purposes.. Six per cent 1 the ruling rate now in .Portland, lor inside and choice resi dence loans. A few loans are made at 7 per cent, but for the most part these are confined to outside and less valuable properties. The truth is, al most any borrower should have no trouble in getting 6 per cent money, if he has good security to offer, even though he may want as little as $500, offering as security an improved lot in a remote residence section of the city Floating of Liberty bonds by the federal government has a tendency - to confuse those who do not understand financial operations of this character, It should be remembered that practi cally none of the money raised by the sale of Liberty bonds is to leave this country. It Is almost wholly an aid to the American business Interest In the bookkeeping employed In clearing the enormous debt which Europe has plied up in this country. For the first time since this republic was established America is now a credit nation. It will be a long time before Europe pays its debts in this country. The various European nations will be paying huge sums of money annually on interest and principal, just as this country paid to Europe for the hundred and twenty- five years prior to 1914. it is well to remember that ever though the government should r&Vft the maximum sum asked for $5, 090, 000,000 and Oregon should subscribe the maximum allotment to this state $24,500,000 there will be no appre ciably less volume of money in Oregon after the bonds are paid for than now As noted before, nearly all of this huge sum of money will remain in this country and practically all, and perhaps more than Oregon's quota will remain in Oregon. There need be no fear of a scarcity of money due to the Liberty bond loan. San Francisco Forms Another Hospital San Francisco, Oct. 20. San Fran cisco's third Red Cross hospital for service in France is being organized. It will be known as Red Cross hospi tal No. 47. Thirty-five more nurses must be en rolled before the unit is roady for act ive service, but the surgical staff is complete.

The warrants for the payments havs been forwarded to for mer Governor Oswald west, and wi'l be turned over to the county tax cot. lectors, as soon -as the tax receipts nave oeen preparea ana . checked up. witn me-tw payments made, the government win be in position to com mence final preparations for onenJng the grant lands to entry and settlement unaer the terms or the Chamberlain Ferris act.
