There have .been received at the Captain Brumbaugh asserts that he will not attempt to make any estimate of the deficiency appro priation that will be requested from the state emergency board when it meets here next Tuesday. "I will simply submit to the board a statement of the expensed of the bonus department," sa'd Captain Brumbaugh, "and the members of the board then will be in a position to determine the amount of money that will be needed. It is a certainty that the present appropriation for adminis trative expenses will not be suffi cient." .. Frequent. Meetings Order Ah noon as formal applications for loans and cash bonuaser begin to arrive in Salem. Mr. Brum baugh said it would be necessary fur the commission to meet at least twice each week. Up until the present time meetings have been held on an average of three times a month. Letters continue ;o arrive in large numbers at the offices of the bonus commiaison from ex-sarvice men. In most instances these writers ask for general informa tion relative to the administra tion of the act. and the date when lormal applications will be re ceived. Captain Brumbaugh said there was no doubt but that ac tual payments would start before Thanksgiving. Many of these let ters are from ex-service men re Eiding outside of the state Brihfl Down Grocery Prices It is interesting to note the decided reduction in Grocery prices, when we es tablish one of our stores in a community. The local merchant is at a loss to figure out how we can sell so reasonable, and immediately cuts his prices to try and meet ours. - He learns very quickly that his small buying power pro hibits him' from continuing So he resorts to the method of giving SPECIALS (Bait) for the Day or Week on a few articles. We offer no SPECIALS but price our ENTIRE STOCK consistent with cost This modern method of serving the public has gained us thousands of Satis fied Customers in our FORTY-SEVEN STORES, and allowed us to grow to the LARGEST RETAIL GROCERY ORGANIZATION in the NORTHWEST.

"The question no long er is how docs the other half live1 it is how does the other S5 per cent live?" the Kev. James Myers; of the Presbyterian Church today j told the Laymen's conference of th Methodist Episcopal Church, South, in session here. Dr. Myers is executive secretary of the board of operatives at the Dutchess Hleachery. Wappingers Falls. N. Y. He spoke on "Iteli'Kion in In dustry." . Message to KU-h. ' "The mission of religion to the' present disturbed social order is i not so much a message to the poor I to respect the sac-redness of the! property-rights of the rich., al though it is that also, as it is a message to the rich in the name and spirit of Jesus Christ to bring about a more brotherly distribu-l tion of wealth, health, joy and freedom in the world," the Itev. Mr. Myers said. "This cannot be done by char ity, nor can it be done by violence. The inequalities of the present economic order can be eliminated only by a more brotherly distribu tion of the profits of industry at the source of production. I'nsellisbnesH Iteking. ! "Wealth can be reapportioned in a brotherly way only where it is made, in the process of its produc tion, by the granting of a truly living wage, by a voluntary de crease in the interest expected for , cue use 01 capital, and by a very material increase in the financial rewards paid to human beings for their labor of hand or brain. "Is is brotherly," asked the Rev. Mr. Myera, "that the finan cial burden of life should bear down the hardest upon those who have the least? Is it brotherly that a poor man should have to pay the highest prices for all of the necessities of life? Is is broth erly that, the day laborer's pay should stop the minute he gets sick and ias to stay at home while the higher paid officials of the company' although better able to stand the financial drain of sick ness, have their salaries contin ued to them as long as they are ill? Is is brotherly that the high est profits in the real estate busi ness should be commonly derived from tenement property.the least Wyoming Oil Men Need Money, Says Gebhardt A. E.
