"Shop Where the Crowd Bay"
cal manager. Mr. W. R. Scott ad
vised that tbre was some complaint
on the part of the growers, because
the canning company was not wiMi'i
lo continue to purchase Royal Ann
cherries at' our original contract
price of 12 cents to 13 cents, and in
answer to a complaint of this kind
I desire to be fair enough to the
grower to explain our position fully.
"From a financial standpoint
will go down in history as one of
the most peculiar years that tie
business interests of the United
States have ever experienced. Prices
of all commodities are exceedingly
high. Each one of us is calling the
other fellow, bad names because he
Is charging us more for the com
modity he furnishes than we think
conditions warrant, but there is not
a single one of us who does not
charge for our commodity all we can
possibly get: in other words, we are
accusing everybody except ourselves,
of being profiteers. This is natural
and is a condition that will always
exist because we can see the other
feHow's defects so much more plain
ly than our own defects.
"Every large growerfvof the Wil
lamette valley bad not only one op
portunity but several opportunities
of contracting his Royal Ann cher
ries at from 12 cents to 13 centa
per pound. Many of these growers
felt that the price quoted was not as
high as they should receive, there
fore growers fti this frame of mind
refused to contract with Ihe result
that many of the canning companies
did not pell as many Royal Ann
cherries as they could have sold be
cause the grower refused to contract
with the canner; and if the canner
had sold in advance without having
the raw material under contract, he
would have been criticixed by the
bank or .bankers who are helping
finance him.
"It must be clear to every fair
minded person that all canning com
panies must be borrowers during the
peak -load, which means the Derlod
in which the fruit is being haniled
most freely.
"Duriirg the present season the
Federal Reserve bank has assumed
a very sensible attitude in trying to
cut down the high cost of living by
urging the banks not to loan to spec
ulators. For etewrple at the present
moment sugar is decling in price,
not because there is an abundance of
sugar, for there is not to exceed 50
per cent as much sugar available aa
there was one year ago. but on ac
count of the banks refusing to loan
money to be nsed to speculate In su
gar. I am sure that you will re
member how scarce and difficult It
was to secure sugar one year a go
In my judgment we are going to ste
a worse sugar condition this fall and
winter than last year.
"But to get back to the cherries:
.In ourvpwD case we worked out a
budret showing our necessities from
a financial standpoint, with the re
sult that we found our requirements
would be abont S2.700.000. We went
to the banks of Seattle. Tacoma.
Portland and elsewhere, put ur
cards on the table; told them that
we had our goods resold and that we
would require 12.700,000 to finance
our pack. The banks very kindly
consented to loan us this money with

i
the understanding that we would not
pack goods In excess of what we had
sold for the reason that the banks
were working iu harmony wlih the
federal Reserve banks in an erion
to keep prices down; therefore. thy
would not loan any money io any
manufacturer for speculative pur
poses, i
"We accepted these loans or a
part of them in good faith and we
should keep our faith with the
bankers. t
"No Royal Ann grower who re
fused to sign contract for 12 cejes
or 13 cents a pound for his cherries
is entitled to any sympathy because
he now has to sell them for less, lie
has had bis day In court, and ft he
was not satisfied with 12 cents a
pound he was certainly looking for
the best of it. In my own case. I
have no sympathy to extend to the
grower who has loo many bristles on
his back.
"To summarixe the whole situation
we bought all the, cherries, all the
loganberries and the other fruit we
could get at the price that our buy
ers were willing to pay. We could
have sold much more if the growers
had been willing to let us have it
to sell. We are now receiving,
packing and delivering this rruit.
Other growers who have refused to
let us sell their fruit are coming to
us and saying that they wish they
had sold. We. too. wish they had
sold as the entire Industry wou!d
be better off. But their fruit has
not been sold and we cannot take
up at this time expecting to pack it
away in cans and hold until ajich
time aa somebody will want to buy
it. This we could not do and keep
faith with our bankers.
"In addition to the financial sit
uation, every cherry growing district
of the Pacific northwest had severe
rains with the result that the cher
ries deteriorated materially in value,
and 'if & good cherry Is worth 13
cents, the cherries that were deliv
ered after the rain were worth very
muc hlesa and in some cases of no
value.
Incidentally I might add that It
looks, to me as though the loganbei
ry crop might turn out exactly aa
have the Royal Ann cherries. We
expect to take all deliveries on our
contracts and 1 am sure that we will
be able to get more loganberries
than we have sold for the reason
that many loganberry growers re
fused to contract, just as did the
cherry grower, therefore, we were
not able to accept as many orders
as we bad offered to ns because we
did not know whether the grower
would sell to us or somebody else;
and acting upon good faith with our
bankers can we accept only as many
berries as we have contracts for and
the other fellow must take his fruit
some place else.
"We have had very great sympathy
for the loganberry growers during
the past 10 years. They have had an,
uphill battle, but I find that the av
erage loganberry grower is Just like
the rest of us when an opportunity
presents itself he does not hesititte
to demand a pound of flesh.'- On tne
whole a large percentage of the lo
ganberry, growers have , acted very
decently about their crop. Very
truly,. t, vv ,

for a respectable woman. He stated
that Mrs. Parnell 'who ia a Chautan-

mas Insulted while going from her
room down staira.
"I had often heard. said Judge
Kale, "or e progresslveness of the
state of Oreron in the matter of
legislation. Aa a matter of fact, she
bas to her credit that of being
among the few states in the nnion
that are In the front ranks of prac
tical legislation and rigid law- en
forcement. That was Oregon's rec
ord during the war times. That is
what I knew of your fair state until

"I was sorely disappointed. he
continued, "when I found more
drunkenness In a sunnosedlv remsxt

and say to you people that this la
a disgrace to the proud record of
this state when such wanton disre
gard or laws should take place un
der the shadow of the dome of your
capitot.. When the different states
ratified the ISth amendment, and
Oregon was one of them, the gover
nors took an oath to uphold the con
stitution, and yet during conven

sanctity and the solemnity of the
oath is forgotten In the festivities
of the convention.
Jndge Bale expressed the opinion
that if the individuals responsible
for law enforcement had a little
more courage and "backbone." the
shamefuf sights he said were found
by him in Salem would have been
prevented.
