ALLEN TALKS ON SUGAR
' "In an address before the Exchange club of New York at
I itvThursday luncheon on the subject 'Who Fills Your Sugar
t Bowl?' Charles H. Allen, president of the Farmers Sugar
company of Defiance, Ohio; told his hearers that their pros
perity and that of all city dwellers and workers was depend
t eht upon the welfare of the agricultural industry of the
t country. He pointed out that since the early settlement of
the country, the soil had been systematically robbed of its
: fertility through' the growth and shipment "abroad of wheat
and other products that depleted its -productive power.
I "f "All - - J 11 A. ; : ' . ' . .
I "-c ufgcu me extension 01 . sugar Doet cultivation
as a- means of improving fertility and increasing the yields
of other crops grown in rotation with beets. He advqeated
the cultivation for exportation of products that did not mean
a loss in f ertility7and the production at. home of commodities
j like sugar that improved the soil for all crops, as' one effective
means of bringing greater prosperity to the farmers of the
,country and through them to the nation as a whole."
The above is from the current number of "Facts About
Sugar," of New York, the leading magazine of the sugar
industry. . " . - T '
; Mr. Allen was in Salem last year, and talked before the
Hotary club here. , He has been addressing a large number of
the past few
clubs and organizations in the east during
weeks-', .
And he is doing a great missionary work.
If he could be kept. on the job, and backed up properly,
it would not be long till the United States was self sufficient
in the matter of sugar, which would help iiif many other
lines ' " ' t Jr
And Salem would have at least one sugar factory, and
perhaps several; and the Willamette valley would haVe a score
of them. - - j;V';: ; ' 1 ' i- -;
That should be our next major development. It can
be, done cooperatively here, as Mr. Allen and his neighbors
have done it in Ohio. i. j
, ; RATE DISCRIMINATION s
congress, defines the policy to be employed by the Interstate
Commerce Commission in rate making thus: "That the con
ditions which at any time prevail in our several industries
shall be considered in-so-far as it is legally possible to do so,
to the. end that commodities may freely move" and "that
the natural and proper development of the country as a whole
shall be one of the factors, which shall be given due regard."
That present freight rates are so high that agricultural
products do not move freely is a recognized fact. And that
the rate per ton is higher than for manufactured products is
also unrefuted. . f j
It. is now the duty of the Commission to close up its
investigations and give the public its findings. It has suffi
cient data at hand to state at least whether the discrimina
tion stated has any justification in fact. And if there is no
justification then, a reduction of rates should follow speedily.
If the present situation needs further light for readjustment
the public is entitled to the. reasons. Such delays as have
characterized this case destroy confidence in government.
AN APPEAL
The MacLaren appeal was on in the supreme court yes
terday. -The basis of the appeal is!; that the crime against
young girls who had accepted a ride in an auto with MacLaren
et al, was committed in Multnomah instead of in Clackamas
county where he and his male companions were convicted.
; On trial for a . similar offense committed in Multnomah
county Hhese same youths escaped conviction
: Quite naturally a trial in one of the metropolitan courts
is preferable under the circumstances.
The appeal matter does not claim innocence of the appel
lants. Its basis is the same. old thread-bare subterfuges
technicality. Can you beat it? And still there are many
thinking citizens who just can't wax enthusiastic over the
"majesty" of the law. j i. .
, The appellants, under the appeal have served notime at
the penitentiary where they! were sentenced mairy "moons"
ago. .
Bits For Breakfast
The thermometer climbed high yesterday with the
political atmosphere only normal. If a special election shall
be declared for the state jts record length will have to be

The declaration of the National grange that farmers are
paying higher freight rates on their products than manufac
turers are paying on theirs is undisputed. The further claim
is made by the grange that this higher rate-is a contributing
cause to the present depressed condition of agriculture.
The President's Joint Commission on Agriculture's re
ports and official records shpw that more than twelve per
cent of the total income from agriculture paid for trans
portation while only approximately two per cent of the in
come from manufacturers is paid for the same purpose.
The report of the President's Agricultural Conference
corroborates the farmers' claim. In its January report thisJ
year is the statement: j
"By reason of the horizontal changes in
: - f freight Tates during recent years and.of greater , , .
; depression in prices of agricultural than in those
of other products, during the same period, the
raw products of agriculture are now bearing a
relatively excessive cos t for transportation.
The conference does wish to emphasize,
at this time, its conviction that while; adequate
service is essential, the welfare of agriculture
also demands an early and thorough revision
of the freight rate structure to relieve raw
" products of agriculture and livestock from their
disproportionate share "of transportation costs."
' ' " And from this injustice and depression there has been,
so, far, no relief although the Interstate Commerce Commis
sion had set June 15 as the date for filing answers in the
loch-Smith freight rate structure case. And even in the
briefs' in this case there is no effort by any organization or
individual to deny the statement of the national grange that
agricultural products are discriminated against in the matter
of transportation rates.

One of the daintiest and most attractive numbers which will be
offered here during Chautauqua week will.be that of Miss Harriet
Baughman and Miss Thelma Pefferle, two western girls, -who are
exceptionally talented and have taken their place with, the very best
professionals and who will appear; at Salem Chautauqua Saturday
afternoon, July 11. Miss Baughman is a cornetist of established
reputation. Her solo and ensemble work is finished and inspiring.
She is also a pianist and character artist. . Miss Pefferle is a soprano
and character reader, i I - , . . ; . .
. The two give some splendid group presentations which include
songs, steps and characterizations of the oldfashioned girls, gypsies
and the Dutch. These are done in costume and always make a hit.
In addition to these groups there will be straight solo work by both
soprano and cornetist, and readings. Those who have seen the clever
work .of these young ladies invariably comment on their beautiful
costuming and the refinement of their art.
Season tickets for Salem Chautauqua are on sale at Patton's,

The warm weather will cut the
strawberry season short; but it

not over yet. It points the way

Salem is already the strawber
rv rnter of the United States, in
both the canning and barreling
fields. But It may as well be ten
times larger and more outstana
ing as such. This will depend on
lrnow hnw and! irrigation; with the
accent about the same on each.
Some of the best strawberry lore
in the world is here in the Salem
district. There Is enough of it
of importance to fill a book. The
fact is, there should be a book, for
the guidance of new and old grow
ers. - I '
