Hood River Is Sending Berries To Eastern Trade .Hood River, June 17. -Although tb cool weatner of tb past week naa held berries D.e. tn number of crate available pas been quit up to expectation - of local exporters, slthough at the aame time it has been insuffi cient to supply the demand. Most of til berries shipped from Hood Kiver have been destined to points further East, th prices offered in these markets being from 31 per crate upwards a bore those quotations prevailing tb coast market. Of the 4 6 carloads which are reported to have been forwarded from thia point up till Sunday evening, 39 carloads were handled through the Apple Growers' association, and all reports received art that the berries have arrived in splendid condition. During th cool weather which prevailed throughout last week, th number of pickers available was almost equal to the demand, but with the rhing temperature of Sunday, which continues, it is expected that a ahortas of pickers will acatn be experienced. Compared with the two previous seasons, the labor situation has been much easier this year than formerly, the cooperation of the United States Labor bureau with growers, through the opening of a local employment office, being to -a large extent responsible for the improve ment. Picking in th lowef" valley is now praetically t an end, most Oy the patches having bean turned over to flelpickers. In th upper val ley picking fa nowawfull swing, and reports indicate a very good cap. SUGAR BEET FED CATTLE SELL AT HIGHEST PRICE Takima. Wash.. June 17.

TAKIMA LOOKS FOR SHORT CROP OF SWEET CHERRIES Takima, Waah., June 17. The Yakima cherry harvest will begin thia week with an indication there will be a very light crop of all sweet cherries. A 11. early cherries marketed dur ing tbe past week have brought the growers 7 to S cent a pound. The Bins ' and Royal Anna will range in price from 12 to 13 cents a pound. A normal crop in the Yakima dis trict would mean about 240 carloads but the estimate for th tonnage this year is 60 to 76 cars. In anticipation of heavy express shipments to th Sound the Northern Paoific will put on a special express train . between Spokane and Seattle to handle soft fruit shipments. . Tbe business will be so heavy that th regular pas- aenger train could not handle it and maintain anything like schedule time. POTATOES ALL ALOITG THE COAST San Franclteo Market SB Francisco, June 17.

REPORT ON SCHOOL IS (Continued on Next Page) did at a. Then Mr a C. B. Slmraone tartly charged the committee with failure to meet, canvass possible candidates or analyse qualifications of candidates that had offered themselves. Dr. Frederick Klehle followed up this sfalt by saying that the sub-committee had "pusgy tooiea anu passed me duck. INDORSEMENT BRIjrOS TROUBLE The name of A- C. Newlll was offered for indoraament and after a labored die- cussion received an affirmative vote of 11 to 9. Dr. Fierce and L U. Levlng proceeded to offer their resignations de claring that the committee had not been created for such a purpose, and the gen eral committee reconsidered its iecom mendation, its final position-being that while a majority of the individual mem bers apparently favored Mr. Newill thejr lormai incioraemenr. as a body might in jure His candidacy. Criticisms of the school board's tub- Ueity campaign in favor of the bonds were uttsred y members of the com mittee, "Who is paying for that advertising r demanded Herbert Gordon, pointing to a newspaper clipping containing a large slice of display space. . "The expense comes under the pub licity manager's expenses. answered air. josselyn. BOARD FAYS FOB. ADVERTISING "The publicity manager said the cost was being paid by the school board." of fered Mr. Laving. , There is nothing en the minutes ef the school board to record such an ac tion, persisted Mr. Josselyn. 'The sum of $5000 was appropriated by the school board for publicity and advertising," declared a member of the committee. School Clerk Thomas this morning cleared up the confusion aa to the pub licity campaign. "No stated amount was aDDreoriated by the board," he said, "but $5000 Was spoken of as the expense of some other campaigns. Mark. Woodruff was em ployed on recommendation of School Director George B. Thomas as publicity manager, at a compensation of $2C0. but th expanses are being authorised by the school beard's campaign commit tee. Chairman . Drake and Director Soramer. The cost will be paid out of the general fund and . I think there is no question of the board's legal right to do go. MISREPRESENTATIONS CHARGED Mr. Josselyn and Mrs. Seeley charged misrepresentation of th facts In the publicity material Issued by the pub licity manager. Mr. Josselyn declared that whereas the display advertisement claimed 9700 children are in over crowded rooms he could find only 3708 in overcrowded rooms and portables. Mrs. Seeley saidthat whereas a tenta tive program of expenditure assumed to be issued by the school board claimed six overcrowded rooms In th Peninsula school, there are in point of fact six vacant rooms in the Peninsula school. . The principal of the Fentnsula school told me there were aix vacant rooms in that building just before this meeting," declared Mrs. .Seeley. . " "And that school is .only 10 - blocks from tbe Kenton school to which an ad dition of eight rooms is proposed," inter polated another committee member. POOR TIME TO BUILD Mr. Josselyn's report points out that although schoolrooms in the past have cost 810,000 a room, the present high costs of material make the lowest esti mate of cost $20,000 a room for high school construction. He doubted if th present is th best time to build. Dr. A. M. W5bster said: "For every $3 we' spend under the present plan we will get $1.39 in value." It was also asserted that the school board has' "offered a program of build ing to which" it-is not bound?' that it has "made no plans for any school build ings" and that "the school board . asks HEADQUAtrriRS LIBERTY BONDS We BUY and SELL any amount.
