SOLVE PROBLEM
OF WAGE RATE
If'
Action Is Decided Upon at
, Meeting of Loganberry
Growers Yesterday
OPINIONS ARE VARIANT
Actiyity in Juice Industry Is
Incentive to Greater
Vineyards
Another big boost wag given the
planting of more vineyards yesterday
afternoon at the meeting of the
powers of loganberries In the Wil
Jamette vUey, when about 100 met
ia the large auditorium of the Sa
lem fruit union.
' The speaker of the afternoon was
j w. Brewer, federal farm labor
tgent of Oiegon, who vas there for
tie purpose of aiding the growers
wd farmer In supplying help on
the farms. In the berry paiches, vine
yards, and late'i the cherry orchards.
The time yesterday was devoted to
the question of harvesting the logan
berry crop, nIcn promises to be a
big one. The demand?ow being
made for more berries to meet the
tremendous demand for juice Is an
Incentive.
One of the growers said yesterday
that if It was not for the Juice press
tog plants the berries would rot on
the ground, for as merely produced
for freeh fruit on the market, or for
tanning, the market was already
orer-eupplied.
-Among the more prominent grow
er! were such well-known men as
McDonald, Roberts, Meyers, Sey
mour Jones and .many others, while
the packers were represented by H.
m II. Tha PhAflianl XTn-i or out

Product! company and Manager
.'yk Walker, of the Salem-Kings
&ducts company, with his field
ent, I J. Chkpln.
When It came to the discussion of
prices to be paid pickers, Mr. Brewer
said:
"It is up to your growers to fix a
price that will bring the pickers, and
it will be necessary to arrange camps
for them and fuel. When you make
a price stick to it."
Mr. McDonald favored paying the
picker 1 cent a .pound cash and a
quarter cent bonus, at the end of the
season, thus insuring pickers who
will stay on the job. Many agteed
with him.; Some did not, but all
agreed that camps for pickers must
be made attractive, as few would be
willing even to furnish their own
tents. The work will be done prin
cipally by women' and young .girls
who will go into the berry inej;arda
for the outing a well as tor the
money. . t
Mr. Jones stated that he favored a
rate of at least 1 cents a pound,
making it half a cf nt bonus at' the
end of the season.
Paulus Is Optimistic.
Manager Robert C. Paulus, who
presided, stated he had recently been
in Portland where he had met Mr.
Brewer and some of his assistants,
and could, say there would be I little
difficulty in securing all the pickers
necessary, but. In his opinion, the
distribution of pickers should be
placed in the hands of a man, or a
small committee, so that there would
be an even division of them just
enough in , each camp, and not too
many in one camp and a shortage in
others. I
Manager Paulus was, by a unani
mous vote, given the authority to
appoint a committee of seven or nine i
growers who will meet and fix the
price and i other details for. the sea
son's campaign. Many of the dis
tricts have different conditions to
contend with, as compared one with
another, and Mr. Paulus will appoint
representative men from each sec
tion. The announcement of this
committee will be made at an early
date, and the meeting of the .com
mittee will take place at once, as
the season Is now on, and planting
of new vines should be done not
later than April 1.

of a statement in an Associated
Press dispatch today from American
headquarters that the rule prohib
iting the discussion of casualties
among the American forces was
"temporary."
Whether this referred to a pro
hibition imposed by General Persh
ing on correspondents in France or
to the department's new order was
not made! clear.
FYench! Government Attain.
General Marvh explained that the
French government has never Issued
a casualty list of any kind since the
beginning! oft the war. Instead the
war office in Paris as soon as a
came is received notifies the mavor
of the town from which the soldier
came and the mayor personally,
notifies the soldier's family or next
of kin.
The British government, accord
ing to the chief of staff, issues week
ly lists which contain only the In
formation now given out in Wash
ington, while the German govern
ment, long ago discontinued the
practice of posting In towns the
names of the killed or wounded from
those towns.
It Is the Intention of the depart
ment to give out the lists as soon as
they are received from abroad, it
was explained. Until further notice
one list will be published by the ad
jutant general's office, mimiograph
ed copies being provided for news
paper correspondents. After ex
plaining the department's action
General March today expressed the
opinion that "the patriotic press"
would sustain the ruling.
' Adjutant General McCain tonight
reiterated that there is no cause for
enxiety among the relatives of sol
diers In France and that all rela
tives of men killed, wounded or dy
ing from any cause will be notified
immediately.
Tube Department of Firm
Is to Be More Elaborate
The Savage Tire company have
decided to increase materially the
size of the tube department in their
plant at San Diego. The work of
this department will be expanded
at once, and If present pUns be re
alized the capacity of the dtpartment
will be increased to three -thousand
tubes per day before the end of the
year.
According to a high official of the
Savage company, it will be an easy
matter to find a market for all of
the Grafinite tube3 that con be man
ufactured. Notwithslanding the fact
that, heretofore, very little sales ef-

fort has been put forth in market
ing tubes, the demand has steadily
increased. This is undoubtedly due
to the graphite coating on the Sav
age tube, which is a un que feature
hot possessed by any other inner
tabe manufactured. The process of
coating the tube with gtaphite ia
covered by basic patents that are
owned by the Savage Tire company.
Some features of the process a-e
secret and the tube department at
the Stvage plant is closed to the pub
lic. It is sadi that the Savage tube
possess the ber.t features of othT
good inner tubes in addition to it
graphite coating, which renders it
impossible for the Savage tube o
stick to the inside of the casing
In which it Is used. No soapstone
or tire powder need be used witn the
Savage tube. The bli: advantage of
these things ill rcalily be recog
nized by motorists. f
The increase of prodrctton at tho
Savage plant will be gratifying to
everyone on the coast. It means
more employment for skilled labor,
hence more toast prosperity. In
view of the many recent transporta
tion embargoes the success of Sav
age products, manufactured as they
are right here on the coast, is of
special interest to coast car owners.
The Savage company is also put
ting into effect many improvements
in their selling and service organi
zations. Service is the keynote of
the new Savage plan. It is the aim
of the Savage people to earn tho
patronage of all coast motorists.
They believe they can do this by giv
ing 100 per cent service with, as
well as in, all of the Savage Tires
and tubes that are sold.
BAILEY WILL NOT
RUN FOR OFFICE
Patriotic Influences Canse As
sistant Attorney General
to Change Plans
J. O. Bailey, assistant attorney
general, will not be a candidate fir
any office in the coming election.
Frequently he har "been mentioned
as a possible -candidate for one of
the circuit judgeships in Multnomah
county r for the supreme bench.
bu( in a statement made public by
him yesterday he announces that he
will not be in the ru inlng.
Mr. Bailey explain that when he
accepted his present position he c'id
so with the expectation of becoming
a candidate for circuit judge In Mult
nomah county, but that a change in
conditions relative to the war have
caused him to change his mind. He
declares th.it he does not feel at this
time justified in becoming a candi
date to replace any man who Is be
yond military age. for the reason
that younger men may be needed for
military service. He believes that
money spent In carrying" on a cam
paign can better be given for patriot
ic purposes, and that time consumed
in rustling for vot?s could better be
expended in planting war gardens.
Mr. Dailey says:
Thought Is of War.
"When I accepted my present po
sition I did so with the expectation
of becoming; a candidate for circuit
judge for Multnomah county at the
coming election. Since then, how
ever, conditions have changed. At
the present time the one thought
uppermost in everybody's mind Is
war. Every day brings to us greater
realization of the seriousness of the
conditions w'th which this country
Is confronted and calls upon us to
make greater sacrifices than the pre
ceding day.
"The money and time which It
would be necessary for me to spend,
not to say anything about the time
and money spent by my friends. In
conducting an effective campaign,
could be employed to much fbetter
advantage, and I cannot deceive my
self into believing that the necessity
for a change in the personnel of that
court outweighs or even approaches
questions of much more vital im
portance. Money Xevded Elsewhere.
"Were the money that would be
spent by the various candidates and
their friends to defeat the present
incumbents and elect new judges
for the different departments of the
circuit court, not to mention the ex
pense necessarily Incurred by those
now on the bench for re-election,
due largely to the activity of their
(opponents, used for the much more
laudable put pose of buying liberty
