Conference I'ropoetl Mr. Williams was commenting on a press dispatch from Klamath Falls in which it was said that the Klamath County Chamber of Commerce will in the near future call into conference at Klamath Falls the service commissions of both California and Oregon, and declaring that each commission had referred the Klamath county citizens to the otheT commission when they had appealed for help. I am not censuring the Klam ath Falls people because they failed to appear at the Portland hearing of the Interstate com merce commission," said Mr. Wil liams, "but had they been present matters " doubtless would have beenj simplified. They were no tified of the hearing." Itehcaring Allowed The Portland hearing referred to by Mr. Williams related to cases against the. Southern Pacific company brought by the Portland Traffic association, the Medford Commercial club and the Klamath Commercial club and Business Men's association. The hearing involved freight rates in Northern California north of Redding and ennecially involved rates on the Southern Pacific on the Klamath Falls branch The case was first heard in 1117 and subsequently an order was issued setting the l case for rehearing in January of this "year.

Would Invite lUilroad "Th'e Oregon commission H1 very readily and willingly go hi to thi situation wiith the Klamath Falls Commorefial club and the iitisiriMs Interests If a conference can be arranged with the Califor nia commission, and make recom mendations to the interstate Commerce commission," Chair man Williams said. "Probably ih railroad company should be invited to send representatives to the conference, for then it migm h nosible to iron out the diffi culties not taken up at the Port land hearine. To make tne soiu Hon permanent the adjustment ment must be strictly on an inter state basis." Passion Week Services Held at Catholic Church Services for this week at the Catholic church are announced by Kev. J. U. Huck, pastor, as 101 low? This morning at 7 o'clock inas3 will be said, communion 0.11 no- uted and with solemn procession the Bleared Sacrament is oorn io the side altar, in commemoration of Our Lord's buriaL After thu Gloria of this mass, all bells are silenced and music is of sorrow ful measures. All of today the fkithful are expected to come. and kneeling before the side altar, offer prayers , and adoration to Jesus, our Savior. Friday morning at 7 o clock the mass of the pre-sanctiflcation ii said at the high altar, wnicn is apparently desolate since Christ's departure. The cross is exposed and venerated by the people, and all day it is left at the entrance to the sanctuary, even as tne Dare cross was left on Golgotha when Jesus was laid away. In the eve ning at 3:30 the Stations of the Cross will be recited and a ser mon on the crucifixion preached by the pastor. At all services on Good Friday the collection goes for the Holy Land. It Is a free will offering, however. No col lections are taken at any of the other services during the week. The services commence at 7 o'clock on Holy Saturday. A fire is enkindled and the fire Is blessed. The triple candle Is lighted, which indicates the Most Blessed Trinity, as. at. the proper time is also the Paschal candle. This latter Indicates Christ, the Light of the World. The baptii mal water Is also blessed, as well as Easter water. ' Mass is said, and at the Gloria1 the bells are again rung and the whole church takes on a joyful appearance In dicative of the resurrection of Christ, thus, in a measure, antici pating Easter. Everyone Is welcome to any or all the services. Confessions will be heard on Friday afternoon and evening, and also on Saturday af ternoon and evening. On Satur day confessions will be heard In English. French and German. For Easter Sunday services will be as follows: First mass at 7:30. A high mass sung by the boy choir. At 9 o'clock the sec ond mass will be said, the girls of the academy Hinging, and at 10:30 there will be a solemn high mass with three priests of ficiating and will be sung by the regular choir. The sermon will be preached by the visiting cler gyman or the pastor. The col lection on Sunday is for the Sem inary, for the education of young men for the priesthood. Dene diction will follow last mass. All strangers are cordially welcome.

Tne win ter just passed is reported as one of the most favorable in years for the livestock industry. Farmers also are encouraged with the overhead costt dropping Laborers, who have been cut from about Js5 to $50 a month, it Is raid, have made little oblectlon. knowing that a reduction In wages is necessary. The bulletin says In part: SlK?op NhearrrV Vasi Drop. "A trip through eastern Oregon shows that the winter just ended has been the most favorable In many years for livestock. The overhead which was eo ruinous a year ago. has been cat to prac tically one-fourth the costs of the winter of 1919-20. Cheap feed and mild weather have been In part responsible for this. "Material reduction has taken place in labor costs. Ranch era ployes, have been cut from $85 a month to something like $50 Sheep herders are now working for from $60 to $75 a month which represents a cut of 40 per cent. Sheep shearers are asking 12' cents largely because this price was established by the Utah Sheep Shearer; union, who vol Juntarily cut from 17 cents to 12. The growers are talking 10 cents and will have.no trouble in filling the jobs at this price. "The heavy fall rains produced a luxuriant growth or grass and all stock taken up in the fall were in prime condition. Thla was responsible for an early ma turing! of all feel-lot stuff. .Prac tically; everything -got fat this year. As a result thre has been an 'early marketing of pen-fed animals and a fine growth of wool and a bumper lamb, calf and colt crop will be insured. Confidence In Fstnrr Shown. "Stockmen are optimistic. They have been able to get along with out much mon?y and have by means of trading among them selves, and In some Instances giv ing their help an Interest In the stock, been able to squeeze through. They have been suc cessful in cutting the overhead. Labor has objected but little, knowing that this was absolutely necessary. A peculiar situation is present in respect to sattle. Feed ers are selling at market points for practically as murh per pound as killers, indicating confidence in the future of the beef indus try. The horse market Is Improv ing. There is considerable demand for stock to take the .place of trucks and tractors. A number or mares will be bred this spring. Farmers feel the need of raising nffieient colts to replace the older horses, worn out or sold to avoid depreciation. Several years ago horse raising enabled the cen tral eastern Oregon wheat farm ers to pull through several short crop seasons. The present price for grains and hay bring horse' expense per year below $100. Small tractors cost at least $600 (covering operation, depreciation and repairs) annually, hence more than six head of horses will haf to be replaced In order to pay out under present conditions. Mwey I Karetl. "Eastern Or-gon stock growers are determined to pull through the pi-e.sent period of depression. Hankers state that there has ben enough money saved during the pat-t six months to recoup much of the loss that has been sus tained because of growers not selling at top prices. Stockmen realize that the only way In the long run that one can lose in the stock game Is to lose the stock. This year there has been no dis ease Jos?: neither has there been (torm loss, nor has there leen any considerable amount of loss rrom forced liquidation. If there ever have ben losses in thentock industry, either the stockman or the banker have been at fault the stockman, perhaps, because he has given up; the banker be cause h? has lost faith. Any stock man that has stood off failure unm now is surely through the worst of It. The banker who ha helped him is now well able to see the fruits of his good Judg ment.
