army corps area, was among the
party of notable led by Lieuten
ant Governor Fuller which met
him in the station. A double lane
of national guardsmen kept the
path open for him to the street.
Outside had been massed fight
ing men of every sort that the
city could muster. These were
cavalrymen, infantrymen, artil
lerymen, marines, bluejackets and
policemen.
Pause Before Statue
Up Boston's winding streets the
cavalcade moved, through streets
Hnedwith cheering crowds. Tick
et tape and confetti rained down
on him through French and Am
erican flags in the financial dis
trict. After ceremonies at City
hall, Clemenceau was escorted to
the state bouse. Entering, he
paused several moments before a
statue of Washington.
Beneath the high dome of the
Hall of Flags the Tiger's first
greeting went to a blinded son of
his native France. The "blue
devil" who lost his sight in the
great drive of 1915 was Private
Guy Endin, now a student at Har
vard. The Tiger spied him as ha
was led forward, his breast re
splendent wittt the Croix de
Guerre, the Medaille Militare and
the decoration of the Legion of
Honor, and he stepped quickly to
embrace him.
TiKr Early to Bed
He spoke emotionally to him
in French for several minutes be
fore Governor Cox could start his
speech of introduction.
From the state house, again
riding through cheering crowds
and paraded troops, the Tiger
drove through the Back Bay sec

nearly a thousand school children
were singing the Marseillaise in
French. The Tiger' alighted for

CHAMBER BOOMS
WILL BE USED
Marion County Corn Show
Hopes to Have Indepen
dence Cooperation
It has been almost decided to
hold the Marion county corn,
ehow in the Chamber of Com
merce rooms December 14 to 16.
The other rooms th?t had been
proposed will not now be avail
able,' having been rented for im
mediate occupancy. In casting
about for a location the commit
tee could find no more appro
priate place than the club rooms,
and this will doubtless be the pro
gram. Paul Carpenter, the efficient
Polk county farm agent, has been
invited to cooperate with the
Marion county people in- staging
the exposition. He was one of
the leaders in the Independence
show last week, and a show was
put on that would look too good
to be true even back in the Mis
souii valley. Local agents are to
be asked for from each of the 25
communities in the Marion coun
ty federation, and the whole
county is to be interested in
making tha show a really big af
fa'r. One of the most interesting
features of the Independence dis
play was the department devoted
io corn cookery. They had every
thing, from ear corn canned
whole to cakes, cookies and can
dles. The display was so attrac
tive that it is expected a similar
department will be arranged" for
the Satem fair.
a moment so that be and tbe chil
dren could see each other better.
Then he was driven to the home
of P. L. Higginson, Jr., nearby,
where he will stay while In Bos
ton. An hour later he was in
bed, resting up for his second
formal address, which be is to
deliver tomorrow afternoon in

the voters in 1921, based upon
the assessed valuation of proper
ty which, he stated, had declined
during the last year. The alumni
he urged must come to the relief
of their university and contribute
what they could, .within their
means, each year. The endow
ment goal was placed at $10,000.
00, he stated, which was a small
amount in comparison with Ore
gon's Immense resources. He
pointed to the fact that Tale last
year had a total or 000 alumni
contributing regularly each year
to an endowment fund.
Others Speak
Other rpeakers oi the evening
were Miss Grace Edglngton, sec
retary of the alumni association,
who urged alumni to subscribe to
"Old Oregon" in order to keep in
touch with the university; John
B. Geisy, mayor-elect, who prom
ised to make duplicates of the
key to the city for every Oregon
alumni; W. K. Newell, director
of the endowment campaign head
Quarters, who spoke on the gifts
which the university had receiv
ed; George Hug, who talked foot
ball, and A. O. Condit who took
his audience back to "when I was
a student."
Slides Shown
The organization and election
of officers for the Salem alumni
association was followed by stere
opticon slides of the campus, at
tbe conclusion of which the first
meeting and organization of Sa
lem's Oregon alumni broke up for
the evening.
Aged Tradition Broken
at Yale Football Rally
NEW HAVEN? Nov. 23. One
of the oldest ot Yale's traditions
was smashed tonight when Presi
dent James R. Angell appeared
at a football rally to lend his sup
port to the team that will face
Harvard on Saturday. He was
greeted with a Kar of cheers
from one of the largest rallies at
Yale in recent years.
President Angell said . that he
knew ba was breaking a tradition
but added that he did it because
he wanted to pay his respects to
a team "that took defeat as Yale
men should."
Answer Filed in Case
of Yoder Against Bank
An answer to the complaint of
Amos Yoder againrt the State
Bank ot Hubbard was filed In the
circuit court yesterday morning.
Yoder alleges that the bank en
dorsed his name to a check with
out authority. In its answer the
bank asserts that it acted only
ai agent for Mr. Yoder's brother,
N. J. Yoder, -and that the check
war. not cashed.
The bank further states that
L. A. Bee km an, cashier, did en
dorse the name of Amos Yoder
on the check but that it was for
rv:.rded for collection and then
deposited to the account, of N. J.
Yoder. It asserts that $950 was
received by the plaintiff and that
the., balance wentta his. brother
to cover various cost3.
BIG SERVICE BY ' .
LOCAL BED CROSS
Support in This District
Falls Far Sshort, Record
of the Year Shows
A rrinted circular just issued
by Willamette chapter Red Crors,
shows that Salem has been ex
emplary in devotion to the ben
efits of the organization, and
lookinr the other nav and talk-
ing pleasantly about the weath-i
er most of the timet when there'
i
was any money to pay. j
The last year's roll call in j
Salem was $1578. while the mon- j
ey pa'd out was $5186.82 fori
ex-service men alone, and $1"
173 for other helpful purposes.!
If it hadn't beon for the coun-
ery, that nobly came to the res
cue of the Red Cross, there i
would have been a goose-egg j
financially in the local chapter. !
The deficit was met' by draw-!
ing on the funds that were left j
over after the war closed and
there was not quite so much
steady demand for funds as
there had been during the war.
But the bonds and other funds
von't last forever. They are
melting away like the prover-j
bial snowball in the spiritual j
oven.
The roll call for 1922-23 is
now on, and some collections
have been made. It has been
hard to get volunteer collectors,
however, according to the local
directors, and so little money
comes in voluntarily that the
Red Cross feels like an orphan.
It rendered some kind of service
to 1281 ex-service men last year.
It wrote 5547 letters on reliet
cases. Ie held 5703 office inter
views in relation to help, and
it has given some kind of ser
vice to hundreds of men and
their families. In one case the
department wrote someth'ng like
180 letters or papers for one
man.
It is estimated tijat the max
imum of hospitalization will not
be reached until 1926. The boys
keep finding that they are not
as good as they orthedoctors
thought they were after coming
home from the service, and much
as they hate to believe it, they
tind that they are next thing
to down and out. The Red Cross
is the medium for looking after
them. It must be -supported, as
a sacred obligation. - .,.
Wheatland Ferry Operator
Is Sued By T. B. Jones
According to a suit filed in the
circuit court yesterday T. B
Jones would enoijn Clyde La Fol
lette, operator of the Wheatland
Ferry, from further operation on
the grounds that La Follette has
placed anchors, poles, wires and
cables on the east bank of the
river, which land, Jones States,
belongs to him.
In the suit Jones alleges that
La Follette is rendering his pro
party valueless for his own use
and that he has been landing
freight on the river bank land
which he has owned for a num
ber of years.
The complaint asks that La
Follette be restrained from oper
ating the ferry, from landing
freight on the east bank and from
placing poles and wires on the
property owned by Jones.

Did you read the speech of C.
I. Lewis, printed in the Statesman
of yesterday? It i3 well worth
reading, even a second time.
s s s
It shows some of the mi.,, re
markable feats ever performed by
advertising. Salem ought to be
doing more advertising, in a hun
dred ways. So should our fruit
industries.
S S
Salem has a chance to build up
a bigger fruit country than the
one around Fresno, and a bigger
city than Fresno, because we have
a much greater diversity. What
we need is to tell the world of.
our advantages; and to get the
correctjView of our advantages
into the minds of our own people,
too.
The Oregon Electric is building
a new spur up along side of the
addition to tbe Salem paper milt,
so that cars can be loaded direct
from that part of the mill. Work
on the, fourth story of the addi
tion is" proceeding .and the roof
will soon be on. The reinforced
concrete walls on tlva south side
of that addition are being left so
that a further addition may be'
added later and this will likely
be next year. That is growing to
bo a great mill, and will be con
stantly a greater and bettar paper
mill.
'The old Tiger of France likes
criticism; he enjoys a fight. His
life has been a battle for eighty
one years, and when he quits
fighting he will be ready to quit

Successful Selling Trip
Made By President of J
Valley Association
President George V. Eyre of
the Willamette Hemp & Flax
Growers' association, has return
ed from a successful marketing
trip !n the associafon's interest.,
He has sold in Spokane, Seat
tle, Portland and for delivery:
there and at San Francisco, prac
tically the ' last pound of tow
fiom the company's flax holdings
from the 1922- crop.
The association had several
hnndred-tons of tlax this year
but because c f the drought the,
stalks were short and were use--able
only for tow that goes into;
mattresses and furniture-stuff- j
irg. Some of the product had)
been sold but the sales were tcjol
slow, fo President Eyre took a :
short trip to the north, where I
he placed the stuff quickly for i
a satisfactory price. j
There is still close to 75 tons
cf fiber flax that sells at a far
higher price. This was grown
by the few fortunate farmers
whose flax was able to defy the
weather and make a satisfactory!
growth. It had been hoped that!
the whole crop would be of thls
sort. In a good year it would j
be so. and the rece'pts to the!
growers would be from two to
10 . times what they will be dur
icg this almost disastrous sea-?
son. At that, the flax was one
of the best of all the spring
small grain crops. It ha3 paid
much better than spring wheat
or oats, taking the average for
the whole valley. It is under
stood that there will be a larger
acreage of flax next spring than
there was th's year. The
drought-shortened yield hasn't In
