By United News
WASHINGTON, June 30 Although
President Harding expects to sign
the army bill, he intends to protest
in a written letter to congress
against limitation of the army estab
lishment. The president and secrc
tary of war are opposed to the fol
lowing:
Reduction of the army to 150,000
men by October 1.
The Borah amendment prohibiting
the war department from incurring
a deficit.
Harding said:
"The bill necessitates a very large
reduction in the army. Expiration of
enlistments account lor half of the
decrease, and I cannot feel jusll
fled to ask the secretary of war to
enforce the dismissal of men en'ist
ed for definite terms of service.
"A moral obligation is involved
violation of which will demoralize
the spirit of the army and may
prove a serious discouragement to
further enlistments.
"Tho secretary of iivar will not

FRENCH CAPITAL WILD
OVER CHAMPIONSHIP BOUT
By Hudson Hawley
(United News Staff Correspondent)
PARIS, June 30. A dispatch thnt
seemed to come from nowhere reach
ed the Paris newspapers 'Wednesday
and nearly caused a riot. It was tc
the offect that Georges Carpeutior
French Idol, from whom .ill the nation
is expecting a magnificent victory Sat
urday, had boon the victim of an auto
mobile accident.
Editors frantically sent their report
ers to Mme. Carpentlor, members of
the Descamps family and all other1
who might have known the clrcum
stances of tho accident. They prepar
ed lengthy cables to America asking
for details.
Then came a corrected dispatch. It
wasn't Georges at all. It was merely
Jules Carpentler, who happens to be
just a distinguished scientist and a
member of the French institute. He
Is no relation of Georges.
The Paris newspapers were hysteri
cal over the news rrom New York
that the International reform bureau
had attempted to stop the fight. The
"bonehead play," to translate freely
from remarks by the press, was liber
ally derided wherever fight fans gath
erpd in clubs and restaurants and
since everybody Is a light fan today,
the whole city was talking, all at once,
about the affair.
"Mon DIeu," tho comment ran
"can't tho puritans allow the Ameri
cans to have any innocent pleasures
at all?"

THRESHING OF BARLEY BEGAN
LAST WEEK; BIG OPER.
ATIONS AFTER FOURTH.
With one or the biggest wheat
vest Is now at hand. Great fields of
rolling grain, ripening to a golden
brown beneath rays of the summer
sun, are awaiting only the passage
of Fourth of July for cutting to
start.
Some cutting and threshing of bar
ley was reported last week, but cut
ting of wheat has not yet stared.
County Agent E. R. Jackman esti
mates that the 1921 wheat crop will
approximate 1,400,000 bushels, an
compared to 1,200,000 bushels liar
vested in the 1920 crop.
Starting July 5, harvesting will
start on a largo scale In Wafcn
county, according to Jackman. Skill
ed harvest hands will be needed in
largo numbers, probably necessitate
'ng the importation of some labor
from Portlnnd, ho said.
The apricot crop in Wasco county
is also a record breaker this year,
Packman said. Ho estimated that the
:rop soon to bo harvested will yield
approximately 500 tons or first qua!
:ty fruit.
Peaches of the early Mayflower va
riety are now being shipped by Was
o county growers. The bulk of early
loaches are being shinned to Port
land and other cities inside the state.
A portion of both the peach and ap
ricot crop is being niaikotcd through
the local branch of tho Oregon
Growers' Cooperative association.
Summer squash, beans, carrots,
cucumbers, turnips and beets aro
among the vegetables grown local
ly that are now being shipped to
the Portland market.

Rumors of contempt proceedings
against James A. Stillman were heard
here today, the second day of the se

Stillman's reiterated reply to neaiy
