centages in the coast conference and recalled "that earnest
tmdeavor was made by Idaho to arrange two or more games
with the Aggies," at the Portland conference last December.
?The only team that O. A. C. has-played that Idaho has

BASKET TOURNEY
III TWO WEEKS
Indications Point to Unusu
ally Clever Lot of Teams
at Annual Event
It Is only two weeks until the
big state basketball tournament,
to be staged In Salem by Willam
ette -onlveristy. The event covers
three days, March 16, 17 and 18,
though there will perhaps be not
more than one or at the most two
games on the opening date.
Tho state Is divided into nine
scholastic districts, giving com
pact, accessible sections within
which the local championships are
decided. From these district
series, the winners will come to
the state tournament, to settle the
big championship. Sometimes
luck has a lot to do with the final
decisions. It the two best teams
In the whole state should be pitted
together In the state prelimin
aries, one would necessarily have
to Io.e the first game, and that
would end its chances, though it
niirlit have been a fluke and the
loser were usually the better
team. But the sponsors of the
tournament system , have never
buen able to devise a better way of
elimination. A winner is a win
ner, and earns bis honor and the
loser is out of luck and that's all.
! Several guesses have, already
been made as to the possible con
testants in the state meet. Salem
has a fine. chance to be one. So
has Eugene, which . has been
knocking 'era dead pretty regu
larly. McMinnville, with 10

outside of their district and so
not counting either way In the
schedule, like the two with Sa
lem, lost TJuesday night to New
berg, and another loss. Wednes
day night, would end its chances
to conta to the Salem tournament.
Newberg would earn the pennant
for that district, by two defeats
of the otherwise invincible Mc
Minnville team.
LaGrsnde, Pendleton and En
terprise are making a spectacular
tight over in their district. Pen
dleton had been believed to be a
sure winner, until LaGrande
swamped them in their last game.
The reports from the far eastern
part of the state have not yet
come in.
The Idaho state taurnament.
held annually at Moscow by the
state university, is to come next
week, March 10 and H. They

EASTERN-BRED
So Declares Justice John
McCourt in Address Be
fore Rotary Club
WARNING IS SOUNDED
Millions in Indebtedness Are
Cause for Watching Step,
Jurist Believes
Speaking to members of the
Rotary club yesterday noon at the
Marion hotel. Judge John Mc
Court of the Oregon supreme
bench said that the reason there
were so many mossbacks in the
state in its early history was due
to the fact that these men came
from the east whre they had ex
perienced inflation in county and
state affairs.
Therefore, when they came
west, they were opposed to any
rapid improvements in state or
counties that would call for large
expenditure of money, remember
ing what happened in the east
during the panicky times of 183S,
when nine states repudiated their
debts.
But 10 or 12 years ago there
was a change and now the state
has an indebtedness of about
$100,000,000 in addition to its
municipal indebtedness. Judge
McCourt said.
"If we keep this up. we can go
broke Just as they did back in
the '30's and MOV declared the
Judge. " We- are on the way and
I don't know whether anything
can stop us.
"Today we have theagricultur
al communities in bad shape, and
the farmers' bloc in Washington is
dragooning congress to give the
farmers somethting for nothing,
and labor is going along to take
from the farmer what he gets.
"Any time any special class
gets somethting from congress it
is not entitled to, the result ia bad
for all. All classes are entitled to
equality.
"Cooperative marketing is all
right and it was coming without
the enactment of special laws. The
law now recognizes that men n
any line have a right to cooper
ate so long as they do not unduly
restrain trade. It is now pro
posed in congress to give the ag
ricultural interests a chance to
cooperate more than th law gives
business men. This cannot be
done because it is undue discrim
ination. Knactment May Re Difficult
"It will be difficult to enact a
law that will point out that some
thting is wrong1 with farm prod
ucts that is not in common with
others. If the farmer is given pri
vileges, he will hurt himself as
well as everybody else.
"If the farmer cooperates right
ly, he must learn tho law of sup
ply and demand. To help him he
must have professional men who
understand cooperation or secure
the advice of sane and sound bus
iness men. '
"The dairy cooperative inler
ests had too many expert cooper
ators. too many men holding
down special jobs and too much
overhead, and you know the re-
BUlt.
"Intelligent marketing cooper
ation is not trying to fix certain
prices for farm products The
farmer is no benevolent Institu
tion and he m'ght put prices up
Just like a business man if he had
the opportunity to control prices."
Oid Days IteraUed
Judge McCourt referred to the
time 21 years ago when he left
for the eastern part of the state.
He called attention to the fact
that at that time there wasn't a
foot of paved street In Salem, not
an automobile, and that Wilson
park and Marion square were in a
state of nature Also that Center
street was hub deep in mud dur
ing the winter with the same con
dition prevailing on the road
south of town.

ARMS CONCLAVE
IS DESCRIBED
Professor of Stanford Jells
of History Making at
Washington
Edgar A. Robinson,, professor
of American history at Leland
Stanford university, gave a few
inside glimpses of the disarma
ment conference in a lecture last
night at Waller hall. His sub
ject "Inside Glimpses of the Dis-,
armament Conference," left aj
praphie and vivid picture or the j
meaning and objective of the arms j
conclave and gave a fresh and !
complete grasp of its great sig
nificance.
Professor Robinson pointed out
the important part' the American
press played in the conference
and even with all that aid he
said the conference yet remains
to be understood. His statement
that "A democracy cannot afford
to fool Itself and the limitation
of arms conference mutt be un
derstood as it actually was," let
it be known that the conference
was not' a disarmament confer
ence but a conference called for
the limitation of armament. The
nine nations that composed the
conference represented three
great powers and had a program
for consideration.
This program had four items
for consideration: land and naval
armaments; China, or the near
east question; the mandated is
lands of the Pacific and Siberia.
Prof. Robinson emphasized the
fact that the conference had only
seven public sessions during the
three months it wag convened.
AH the work, was carried on by
committees of three, five, seven
and nine members depending upon
the nations interested in the prob
lem and measures. The actual
business was carried on by the
commitees. No records were
kept. Everyhing functioned se
cretly. His description of the public
session left a deep picture on the
minds of the audience, particu
larly his remarks about Hughes.
Lodge, "Root, Underwood, Brland,
; Balfour, and the other noted men.
The picture of the -various na
tionalities and personalities that
were grouped around this table,
the press box with Bryan, H. G.
Wells, and other noted press men.
the gnests in the gallery and all
such details were highly interest
ing. He said the much needed pro
tection was given the commitee
members as they functioned in
the Pan-American building, the
naval buildings and other places
by American marines.
The press men did not attend
the committee meetings but re
ceived the news of the day from
bulletins and oral statements is
sued by different members of the
conference. This publicity, said
Prof. Robinson, came from the
various delegations.
Professor Robinson said Ameri
ca's part in this conference must
not be underestimated. It wa3
tho American leaders who select
ed the group and the questions
that were to be called up at the
conference. Something to be ac
complished was borne in mind.
The five great military powers of
the world were called together
and formed the limited agenda.
From thi meeting of the powers
there grew . out the Chinese de
mands and the Chinese request
for the calling of a conference to
look into the case and cause of
the Chinese; a formation of the
four-power pact regarding insular
possessions of the Pacific, and the
many other results of t"he great
armament conference.
"Something may come from
this which will change the inter
national policies of the whole
world," said the speaker.
Professor Robinson said that
this world must' have some bet
ter method of dealing with inter
national politics and policies.
This means must be called before
It la too late, he said, or drill
.ration would be the. sufferer.
