takes two pickers to the acre to
haravest the crop. There is a vast
difference in the ability of pickers,
but It is estimated that the aver
age picker will be pretty sure to
make from $30 to $40 for the sea
son ot between two and three
weeks. Some expert pickers might
more than double this earning
record.
Many Pickers Register.
The above estimates are given
by one of the largest hop firms in
the valley. They are taken in large
part from the state records and
reports, wherever the figures art
available for this year's crop.
Indicating the interest which
the hop industry is attracting, the
T. A. Livesley company received
on Thursday 83 applications for
picking Jobs. The company lists
the -applicants, with names and
addresses, and assigns tents or
boarding house accommodations
where these are desired. The com
pany has 00 tents, and room for
100 or more pickers In the big hos
telry at Livesley station. A charge
of $3 is made for an apartment in
the hotel, for the Beason. The
tents are furnished free.
That so many applications
should come in in one day, with
out advertising that the registry
books would be open they do not
usually register help until the first
or second week in August is
considered remarkable. However,
the pjickers state that the berry
season, now about over, has not
been ver profitable, and they wish
to make sure of the hop jobs
which -promise better money.
Portland Contributes Labor
The Salem companies expect to
get much help from Portland.
There Is not usually enough labor
around Salem to care for the crop.
Some pickers come from schools
and even colleges; some come
from stores and offices, for a coun
try vacation with profit and
health. Adequate police protection
is given in the camps through spe
cial officers appointed by the gov
ernor. Supervised dances and
amusements are provided and the
camps are as orderly as a home.
The nine-hour day in the fragrant
hop fields isn't nearly as long as
shorter hours in many other vo
cations. The pickers usually bring
only their personal belongings and
bedding; the tents and houses con
tain stoves and all the furniture
necessary for camping In perfect
comfort.
The hop pickers are netting
ready tor the biggest picking In
Oregon history.
WITNESSES TELL

Steward of Stillman's Boat
man's Boat Says Women ,
Remained All Night
POUOHKEEPSIE. N. Y.. July
14. Witnesses called to tell of
the alleged martial infidelity of
James A. Stillman mentioned the
names or two wmen today as
having been the banker's com
panions at parties aboard bis
yacht Modesty. On separate oc
casions both women Florence H.
Leeds, former show girh and one
Helen remained aboard the
yacht overnight, according to ac
counts of the testimony of Frank
MOrphy, steward of the Modesty.
Besides broadening the counter
offensive against Mr. Stillman,
counsel for Mrs. Anne U. Stillman
offered evidence to combat the
charge by Mr. Stillman that he
was not the father of his wife's
youngest son, Guy, born in 1918.
Pair WereTogether.
Through H. Phelps Clawson of
Buffalo, a friend of the family.
they presented testimony that
husband and wife were together
several times In the months pre
ceding Guy's birth, both on their
estate In the Pocantico hills and
in a suite of rooms at the St. Re
gis hotel in New York. Three
times, in January, 1918, ClawSon
said he visited the estate and
found both Mr. and Mrs. Stillman
there. The following month he
telephoned Mrs. Stillman's hotel
suite and the banker answered
the call, the witness said:
. Other witnesses will be sum
moned ' to combat the banker'3
charge that Guy Stillman Is not
his own child. It waa considered
not unlikely today that a request
for Referee Gleason to adjudicate
the boy'a legitimacy before Mr.
Stillman's divorce suit reaches a
conclusion will be made either
tomorrow or when hearings are
resumed late this month.
Women Were On Yacht.
Ih June, 1920, when the Mod
esiy was launcned, she was
docked at the New York Yacht
club anchorage in the East river.
The next night Mrs. Leeds was
aboard until after daybreak, and
the third night "Helen" was a
guest, remaining until 11 o'clock
the following morning, the stew
ard was alleged to have said.
Other witnesses were reported
to have told of the relations of
Mr. Stillman and Mrs, Leeds in
the Eighty-sixth street apartment
where they were alleged to have
lived as "Mr. and Mrs. Franklyn
H. Leeds." The. character testi
monial which "Mr. Leeds' pre
sented when he leased the apart
ment was declared to have been
signed byJimes A. Stillman.
Mr. Stillman 'highly recom
mended "Mr. Leeds," it was said.

flETHS MEET
Oregon Championship to Be
Played Off on Multnomah
Court Saturday
PORTLAND, Or., July 14.
William Ing-aham of Oakland, R.
and Phil Bettens of San Fran
cisco will meet Saturday to decide
who will reign as the king pin
racquet wielder of the state for
the next 12 months. Both play
ers won their matches in the
seml-ftnals today and qualified to
enter, the finals.
Ingraham defeated Herbert
Suhr of San Francisco in three
straight, sets and Bettens won
from Wallace Scott of Tacoma in
a like manner.
The young eastern Invader was
at his best in today's match and
brought every stroke of his list
into play. His forehand featured
most of the time but he kept this
interspersed with short chops and
sharp backhand drives. His vol
leying could hardly havg been bet-1
ter ana tnroughout the enure
three sets he kept the ball in the
air and well to the back court.
Suhr could not get to the net and
was at a disadvantage in this re
spect. "
Suhr gave a good account of
himself, far better than the score
would indicate and kept Ingraham
on the run quite a bit of the time.
His serve was good but many
times Ingraham broke "through it
and here he won out. Suhr was at
his best in the latter stages of the
second set, but after that he was
on the defensive a good deal.
Ingraham, playing with the
skill of a veteran, made most of
his points on clean passes. He
continually tricked Sun out or
position and looped the ball past
him.
Bettens had little difficulty in
disposing of Scott. The Washing
tonian was erratic at all stages of
the g-ame and lack of control cost
him the match.

A Turkish Joan ot Arc, Alshe
Hanum, hav, started a woman's
fighting "brigade against the
Greeks. Her oruanization, called
the Kain brigadi;. has already
taken part in active fisrlitins; and
she is constantly enrolling new
recruits.
This is the first timo hi Turkish
history that a woman has bten so
militantly active. She has been
dubbed by the people of Anatolia.
"The Conqueror." Hr personality
is in distinct contrast to the beau
tiful Halide - Edib Hanum, the
writer and graduate of the Amer
ican Constantinople college, who
has been so active in Nationalist
politics for two years and fled to
the interior in March.-' 1920, to
escape imprisonment by the allies.
Aishe Hanum is a Ktern, dark
woman of the soil, asiftd 52, who
ree Visions and .believes she is in
spired by the prophet. She wears
a veil but -h-.is-rast aside skirts.
She carries a rifle and when not

As Nationalist soldiers, the uni

Indirectly, Alshe Ilanum is do
ing as much as HaTide lfantim to
emancipate thi Turkish women.
When she began her work, the
Turkish men, who dislike to have
women interfere in politics, tcd,'
to force her to return to her farm.
But, by the courago born of her
visions, Alshe j : Ilanum has eon
tinued until she is recognized as
tui aid to the Nationalist cause. '
