HUNTERS ARE
GIVEN PRISE
Government Method of Elim
i : : inating Predatory Animals
f : Highly Commended
- . Stanley O. Jewett, predatory
- animal inspector, United. States
department of agriculture, bureau
'. of biological survey, has sent to
Bam A. Koier, secretary of. state,
copies of letters received 'from a
large number of livestock men in
? Oregon and Washington in 'which
" the government system of doi'rg
sway with predeatory animals,
particularly coyotes is highly
commended, and a' preference ex
, pressed for It over the state
: bounty system.
' ' Counties Cooperate
' Mr. Jewett sent the letters to
- fiAiAtavtf TAWA. ...VII..
tion in Oregon newspapers of let-
ters received by Kozer from nn
tinerous county officials relative
1 to the bounty system, many of
them declaring against it.
f The biological survey Is cooper
? ating with the state livestock san
l Itary board, several county courts
y and livestock associations. The
v government is now employing one
man each in ' Coos, Wasco,; Mor
! row and Wheeler counties with
funds provided by, the county
courts and Interested stockmen,
I and Mr. Jewett pays that the
Commercial club at The Dalles
has appropriated money to help
clean up certain areas where coy
t otes were killing lambs.
- State Not Burdened 1
. ' "We have , taken slightly over
16.000 predatory animals, princi
pally coyotes, which have not cost
the state one cent In bounty,"
writes Mr. Jewett. "Every ani
mal taken becomes the property of
jj the government of the cooperating
agency, and during the fall or
'winter the skins of these animals
I are sold and the funds returned
- o the cooperating party."
t Mr, Jewett says that no special
effort has been made to get. coy--)
otes In" large ' numbers, but that
'hunters and trappers have been
I placed, in localities where the anj
mals were actually doing damage
to livestock. ; ; ,
: Curry County Cited
1 "Curry county is a " fine exam
pie of the bounty' system and
what it can do," Mr. Jewett
writes. '..""They were' paying , $75
if each on coyotes for some time,
' but I note that Judge Wood and
. others down there "are thoroughly
it- convinced of their failure. Judge
- Wade in Coos county has i been
cooperating with us attar revok-
ing their $30 bounty, and I aUo
note that he is very much in fa

"Seven of the principal stock

Petroleum Used for Airplane
What appears to some as an
epoch-making event in the devel
opment ot airplane and automo
bile motive power is the recent
successful trip near Copenhagen.
Denmark, of an airplane using
petroleum as engine fuel. It was
observed by experts who wit
nessed the test, that the plane
flew just as well as with gasoline,
that there was less vibration and
no soot formed, nor was there any
self-ignition in the engine, which
ran 100 revolutions less than nor
mally. From the November

Worthless Deputy Now

LOS ANGELES, Dec. S.
Sheritf's deputies who had been
searching the Mexican border
towns for Mrs. Clara Phillips, con
victed murderess, who escaped
from the Los Angeles county jail
were called in today and the hunt
was centered in Los Angeles.
Under-sheriff Eugene Biscaillus,
who had been at the head of a
posse in Lower California, said
there was a growing belief that
Mrs.. Phillips was hiding In or
near the city.
Would Deny Appeal
Investigation of how the
woman had escapedwas renewed
by Sheriff W. I. Traeger. It was
announced that jail officials and
inmates would be closely ques
tioned. A motion was made by the dis
trict attorney's office In the su
perior court to have Mrs. Phillips'
privilege of appeal taken from her
because the court no longer had
"Jurisdiction of her body." After
proof of the escape had been pre-
sented, Judge F. W. Houser stated
the motion wolud be made a mat-
ter of record, subject to future ac.
tion by the court.

Lions Club Guests
The Salem Lions' club met
with the campaign committee
yesterday at the regular noon
luncheon. A quartet, Merrs.
White, White. Mott and Know-
land gave several fine musical
selections, and the Lions per
formed some of their leonine
stunts that gave the crowd a
real laugh.
Rev. Martin Fereshetian of the
Christian church was the prin -
cipal speaker on the . invitation of
the Lions club. He told af the
r on H it Inn in Fnrnnn vrticwa thorn '

but few named for any com
munity effort or representing
any great community spirit. He
told of visiting the largest uni
versity in the world, the Moham-
medan university at Cairo, Egypt,
u'hora thoro a ro 1 A AAA ntnanto
learning the. slnlatex philosophy
that makes all . civilization
tremble.
Fereshetian Makes I'lea
"Mere education may be a
curse instead of a blessing," he
said. "I like to think that the
i
ideal university, as yoa picture
it here in Salem, is altogether
good. We are met here today
in the interest of a community
enterprise, a community respon
sibility. They say they hare no
obligations to Willamette. It is
nothing to them, because it does
not bear their partisan or sec
tarian name. uBt there is no

fsuch narrow lines are drawn.
"There is not now a large
enough endowment to make Wil
lamette as strong and stable as
her traditions, her records, de
serve. Educational growth must
be like the growth of the body.
The school must expand to meet
the changing needs of the time.
I appeal to you, as one who has
tried to give his le for better
things, to stand by th'.s cam
paign." Rev. Mr. Fereshetian was
given an ovation for his stirring
address.
Albert Hits Keynote
Other brief addresses were
made by Mrs. Gertrude J. M.
Page, A. A. Lee, A. N. Moores,
and J. H. Albert. The Albert
address was a striking epigram:
"It amounts to this: The out
side world says to Salem, you
give one dollar and we'll give
four dollars, and then you keep
it all!"
This statement is based on the
appointment of $250,000 for Sa
lem to raise, and a full million
dollars from outside of Salem
and all of it to be spent in Sa
lem as a perpetual asset for the
city. It is most answeraMe
financial argument produced dur
ing the campaign.
There will be no luncheon
meeting today, nor Sunday, but
on Monday they meet as usual,
at the Marion, with the three
days records to bring in trom
Salem and all over the state,
and some stirring reports are ex-
rpectad.
.Nothing Held buck
"We are holding nothing back,"
said Dr. Smith, chairman of the
campaign. "We count every dol
lar as fast as it comes in, signed
up for record, and we want every
body to know precisely where we
are, financially. The time is get
ting short, and there is a lot ot
money yett to raise. It will take
'heroic work:'
I Some "call again if you need
it" subscriDtions are being talked
'over in Salem that will be good
if the close of the campaign shows
I a .hnrtsro it u IIpvpiI that the
full sum will be raised.

to keep everybody busy supplying it.
This brings about a period of keen com

work harder and accept less in order to
overcome the sales resistance of a cur
tailed demand.
Demand is largely a created thing. The
actual needs of humanity are only a
fraction of the general demand. It is
always a simple matter to get along

ASTORIA NOT
DISCOURAGED
Ruined City Still Has Best
Harbor on the Pacific
Coast Says Mayor
A striking spirit of optimism;
a glowing example of "down bnt
not out," prevails in this stricken
town despite the misfortune which
has eaten out its aeart. State
ments made by the mayor, city
officials and prominent business
men, pausing long enough in
their work of fire fighting, sal
vage and relief, to take cogni
zance of assistance and expres
sions of sympathy frm outside
bear it out.
Everyone Optimistic
No word of discouragement
was heard on Astoria's streets to
day, a forward looking spirit pre
vailed. In his battered office in
the scorched and battered city
hall, its ceilings dripping water
and its windows partly shattered'
and still giving way periodically
to thundering detonations from
ruins across the street, Mayor
James Bremner had this to say:
"We've got no town lefi, but
we've still got the best harbor on
the Pacific coart. We will start
rebuilding soon the old sUs.
These things have happenad be
fore, to us once; to San Francis-
to. to Chicago, and many other)
cities. Yet folks have gone ahead i
and built bigger and better cities

for Progress
with less than one would like to have.
When the public gets a streak of econ
my it curtail the demand for every
thing that is produced.
Advertising is a prime mover in creat
ing business. It rouses people out of
lethargy, makes them want to live more
fully, and to possess the means of living
more comfortably and ,more enjoyably.
When sales are hard to get, then most
people who have things for sale increase
their efforts to sell. The harder they
try to sell, the harder their competitors
try to sell. But no amount of selling
effort in the usual sense of the word
can create demand', it can only take ad
vantage of the demand that has been
otherwise created.
Advertising and Selling ought to be con
sidered as "fifty-fifty" in importance.
Advertising creates the consumer de
mand. Selling connects this demand
with the supply. Each needs the other
to make its work complete.

FRUIT CARS
PLENTY
No Further Distress in Ore
gon Relative to Perish
able Shipment
In the last two weeks there has
been a notable relief in Oregou
irora the car shortage situation
that has previously existed, and
as far as perishable fruit is con
cerned there is complete relief,
with scarcely any shortage ot re
frigerator cars
On November 9 the Southern
Pacific shortage of closed cars
ranged from' 850 to 1050 dally.
On decern ber 2 the shortage be
gan to diminish, according to fig
ures in the public service commis
sion. On that date there was a
shortage of 700 cars, but by De
cember 7 this had diminished to
334. A similar condition exists
for open cars since the Southern
Pacific has returned many ot
them from the coal districts ot the
east.
'Criticism Answered
Some criticism recently was di
rected at the commission because
of a large number of bad order
cars In the Brooklyn (Pilt'id)
yards of the South rn Pacific
company. The Southern Pacific
company explains that the bad or
der cars were sent to Oregon for
repair and that as rapidly as the)
are repaired they are put Into ac
tive service to relieve the Rhort
age. The company increased its
working force in the Brooklyn
yards by 225 men and Vft 440'
bad order cars there for repairs.
They are being rebuilt at the rate
of about 90 a month and those
with only minor defects a ! be
ing put into service very rapidly.
