SAYS F. VANDERLIP
(fSntismd from Pile Ons)
Domic life has become disorganized. Eco
nomic disorganisation in Europe must
have An unfavorable influence on our
Own affairs. If over there political dis
orders occurred, they would affect our j
thoushts here. Just as we have a con-
tderable public opinion sympathetic I
to Russia, so might there be a body 1
sympathetic to
any political disorders
in Europe.

cat political movements in Europe. The
Csent situation is creating, Idleness and
iger among the European and those
are the two principal factors In dovel
. opine political unrest.
"There is ho cure you can take out of
a patent inedjfc-lne bottle; The cure Is
for Europe toj produce more so that Eu

But It is hardly to the point to insist
that Europe musi go to work and stop
at that. Certainly Europe must work,

In the meantime It must have food to
support the people. Just now the peo

MORE ' CREDIT ILL ADVISED
"I doubt the wisdom o our govern
ment granting more credits to Europe.
At the same time the credits that are
needed must run for too long a term to
make It feasible for banks to make the
grants. Besides, our banks have ex-
, panded their credit facilities for do
mestic requirements to quite as high a
4polnt as is safe. That means the credit
should come from our investment funds.
Which have been largely dissipated in
'. the recent past by our flotations of new

ability very much by practicing econ
omy and stopping the present erase for

HOME INVESTMENTS BEST
"But our investors are not disposed
to adventure into foreign securities. They
can get very high returns from domestic
securities and they lack understanding
and experience in foreign securities.
Such Investments as they have made
abroad haven't ten altogether happy
In some Instances. The remedy can
only come with a realization by our
people of Kurope's extreme need ; of our
;own Intimate connection with European
affairs and of the reaction on us of any
economic breakdown in European coun-
tries.
"In inventing our funds to help Eu
rope's recovery the idea would not be
for European governments to float

clere. There should be a consortium of
bankers, representing the principal lend
ing countries : that is, those which have
a surplus of food and raw materials.
This council of bankers would have to
study the European Industrial situation
and ration such credits as It could grant.
MUST FOSTER INDUSTRIES
It would extend credits solely with
a view to starting Industries and keep
ing people from starving. The credits
should be extended only In the form of
food and raw materials.
'The consortium of bankers would
sell to American Investors obligations
secured by a mortgage or other security
of the European factories getting raw
materials and also secured by the gov
ernment of the European country ac
cepting the goods from America. This
government guarantee might be in the
form of a prior lien over all outstnd
ing government loans.
"The degree of security of these obli
gations would be high if the credits
granted to Europe were on a compre
hensive scale and left no areas help
less. There could be no complete safety
for such investments, however, as long
as there were great political districts
left in want and the people In idleness.
Want and idleness are apt to lead to
political revolution, which is a com
municable disease.
BRIGHT SPOTS SEEN
'While the facts are pessimistic, there '
are some bright spots. England has
done marvelously In getting her indus
tries adjusted. Belgium, too. has done
very well. But elsewhere the revival Is
not sufficient to warrant optimism. In
some places only 20 per cent of indus
trial revival has occurred. Neverthe
less, once a start is made In helping
1 urope by the United States, the situa
tion should become much brighter.
The only possible solution is In our
hands. Russia cannot give immediate
help. 8he has no raw materials on hand
and her paralyzed railway system makes
transportation very difficult. It would
do no good for us to cancel the debts
Europe owes us. for what Europe needs
Is the . food and raw materials we can
supply.
The present situation was evident a
yef ago. But the people who made
the peace treaty paid no attention to
economic data. They did not understand
the complicated theory of modern In
dustry. They had not taken Into con
sideration the fact that the population
of Europe under the influence of an
industrial age had grown into far larger
numbers than Europe's fields can feed.
But, with it all, we can save Europe.
We can do it if we stop our wild ex
travagance, comprehend the seriousness
of the situation and decide it Is time
for us to help our neighbors. Then we
shall have the world at large at our
feet In gratitude."

C. A. Sweek of Burns, attorney for
the new Irrigation district being; organ

visitor Thursday, in consultation with
State Engineer Cupper relative to the
plans for the district. The district cov
ers approximately 80,000 acres in the
vicinity of Buras and will Include the
holdings of thePaclfic Livestock "com
pany, the William Hanley company and
practically all the irrigated and par
tially irrigated lands now taking water
from the Sllvles river. Land owners in
the district will vote on the organisa

The Sutherlln Valley Water Users'

neer Cupper an application for permis
sion to appropriate 25 second feet of
water from Calapooia creek for the ir
rigation of a large orchard tract near
Eutherlin.
Other applications for water rights
were filed as follows :
C. D. Nickelsen of Hood River, waste

Treaty Friends and
Foes Preparing for
Another Big Battle
Washington. Feb. 6. (I. 1ST. S.) Both
sides were drawing their lines In the
senate today for another clash over the
treaty of Versailles.
Democrats were preparing for the cau
cus which Senator Hitchcock has called
for tomorrow to decide whether they
shall stand by the president in his de
mand for ratification with only Inter
pretative reservations or yield to the
preaure for compromise.
The "irreconcillablcs" were also pre
paring to hold a session to plan further
vigorous assults on the treatyunder the
leadership of Senator Johnson of Cal
ifornia, who is returning to the senate
to lead the fight.
In the midst of the preliminaries the
letter of Viscount Grey is an element of
great uncertainty. The indignation the
president has shown towards the action
of VI scop nt Grey may strengthen the
spirit of these Democrats who have been
wavering. The charge of outside Inter
ference has brought resentment from
strong supporters of the president and
there is reason to believe the Gray letter
may prove an asset to the president by
J holdln t0,ther d,mocrt to nil
support.

for the defendants, Vanderveer took ex
ceptions on the denial by the court, and
this still stands in the record.
ALL ARE WELL
All of the defendants were reported
by County Physician J. H. Fltz to be
in good physical condition today, and
all will be in the court room when the
trial Is resumed.
In order to eliminate further delay
from this cause, it was said today that
in the event that any of the defendants
become ill in the future days of the
trial they will be taken to the court
room on cots. During the famous night
rider cases In this county several years
ago, a number of the defendants heard
the testimony In this manner several
times.
Members of the jury as they are
seated In the box are as follows:
One F. H. McMurray, city teamster.
Aberdeen.
Two Harry Sellers, laborer, Elma.
Three Aubrey T. Fisher, real estate
dealer, Aberdeen.

The Juror Sweitzer asked the Judge
to give him all of Friday to arrange
business matters, but this was denied.
Sweltzer said that he was compelled to
go to his home near Oakvllle, 27 miles
east of here, to arrange his affairs.
HEARING ON MONDAY
The opinion was expressed this after
noon tnai th, matter or actual testi
mony taking will not start until, Mon
day morning.
Interest In the ase. which laggea
somewhat this week because of the
monotony of the matter of jury selec
tion, is -expected to be aroused again
Monday. Many of the visitors to the
trial, Including members of the Amer
ican Legion and others who have been
especially interested, have not been In
Montesano this week, but all have re-
served their quarters and the little city

this will be guarded continually by dep

It required the examination of 92
talesmen before the jury was secured.
Of the first 12 men seated, only one
remains. He Is E. E. Torpen of Mon
tesano. The last JUror seated . was Samuel
Johnson, fisherman, of Montesano.
Johnson said that he had once been a
policeman, and that he was a member
of the Fishermen's union of Grays Har
bor. Because of his lack of knowledge
of I. W. W. principles, the Juror said
that he was rather opposed to the or
ganisation, but to none .of its members
individually. He did not believe in the
strike principle of picketing.
OPINIONS CACHE EXCUSES

Samuel Johnson was passed. '
W.- H. Orlger. grocery clerk of Elma,
was excused because , of an opinion. He
was the first talesman examined : after
the noon recess.
A long drawn out argument over the
death penalty arose from the examination
of Earl W. Davis, who conducts a mo
tion pictures business at Cosmopolla.
Davis said he didn't believe tn capital
punishment He was challenged y the
state. Varderveer restated.
JUROn 18 EXCUSED
Would his conscience keep htm from
voting a death penalty for the defend
ants. If in his Judgment the evidence
called for it. Davis was asked by Van
derveer. Attorney Abel objected.
"We are not' required to accept blood
thirsty jurors, ; said Vanderveer, la de
fending his position.
The Juror said it would require evi
dence to remove his conviction against
the death penalty. Judge Wilson then
read him the law which provides that
the jury, in the event of finding a man
guilty, must also make a special ver
dict fixing the dearth penalty. The
Juror's conviction remained and he waj
excused. t
George Gates, Aberdeen logger, and R.
M. Trough, bank employe, Hoquiam,
were excused because of opinions.
When Judge Wilson excused, H. A.
Miller, Aberdeen auto dealer, because
of opposition to the death penalty. Van
derveer indignantly resisted.
BEINGS DISQUALIFICATION
. "You honor Is excluding any socio
logical consideration of this question and
is leaving on the jury only men who are
for. the death penalty, and I maintain
that it is not the law and is not right."
Vanderveer expostulated.
J. N. Caron. Aberdeen clerk, did not
deny very strongly the charge made by
Attorney Abel that he had expressed
opinions of his belief that the defend
ants were Justified tn doing what waa
done at Centralis. Opposition to the
death penalty, however, was cause for
his disqualification. . 3
