MAKING HERSELF SELF SUFFICIENT IN SUGAR
c " Great Britain; a little over a year ago, determined that
she would become self sufficient in sugar. Her Parliament
'went about this project in ways to accomplish it quickly. A
Ihighduty was placed upon imported sugar, and a bounty was
offered for each pound of beet sugar made in that country; a
bounty about the size of the wholesale price of sugar in New
Yprk for the.f irst year, shading off for ten years
V: And the result has been ten new sugar factories, with
about 55,000 acres in sugar beets the past season
With ten more sugar factories projected, the prospects
for, 100,000 acres being in sugar beets next year.
- That is surely getting results.
The new factories are mainly in England. Some of them
, are Jn Scotland and in Wales. .
So great is the development that the great problem now
ris to provide labor for field and factory and housing facilities
for , the working people; but the Ministry of Labor, the
National Farmers' Union and the British Sugar Beet Society,
.and other organizations, are working on this problem.
Let the United States go at the matter of making herself
self sufficient in sugar in a manner half as vigorous, and the
result would be speedily accomplished S
! With half the tariff duty, and no subsidy at all; provided
itbe made certain that the tariff duty would be maintained
,.fora longtime. . i
f Then Salem would have a half dozen sugar factories, and
the Willamette valley would have fifty of them, and we would
j,have a housing problem for our field and factory workers. ;

INDECENT AND UNFAIR
"Pettis was freed last April by Governor Pierce after he
? had served ten years of a life sentence for murder committed
in Wasco county."
I J So said the Oregonian of yesterday morning,- in the
course of a news item about a hold up in Portland the day
before -
5 The item being given the first column first page position
under a glaring headline, the top deck of which read: "PAR-
DONED SLAYER HELD AS ROBBER." ?
"The Portland Journal of last night followed suit by copy
.'ing the libel on Governor Pierce.
; Pettis was one ot the men given executive clemency by
.! Roy Ritner, when he served in his . capacity as President of
the Senate as Governor .of Oregon during the absence of
Governor Olcott from the state for a short time in 1922.
On December 18 of that year Acting Governor Ritner
commuted, the life sentence of Pettis to fifteen years. The
; fifteen years expired April 16 last, and at that time of course
. Pettis was released. . .
Can there be any good excuse for such abuse of the plain
rules of newspaper honesty,, in attempting to blacken the
' t record of a state official? . v -
' The newspapers committing the injustice ought to repair
1 it by printing the facts in as conspicuous a manner as they
printed the libel- r
Which of course they will not do i "

EFFECTS OF THE LOCARNO PACT
-K
i The Locarno security pact is hailed as one of the mos
importanf ever made .to Europe by political science. It is a
step toward a united .Europe politically - considered and an
ecorwmic conference looking forward to industrial unity has
also been called for next year.
fc . The principles of disarmament, diplomacy and arbitra
tion treaties underlie, tnis . pact, m iaci 11 mciuues cy
' possible form of dispute.
And there are many indications that the spirit of cooper
; ation so essential to any project for , permanent peace is
1 1 growing rapidly and substantially in Europe. , " v'
. One of the outstanding results of the Locarno pact is the
' swinging of Germany away from Russian influence and into
? cooperation with the remainder of Europe.
. Some of the effects of the pact are also the turning away
; of European nations from, the leadership of the United States
and toward the League of Nations ; the growing self -suf f ici
ency of Europe; and greater emphasis upon the isolated
h attitude of America in holding herself aloof from the League,
--'The efficiency of the League was shown in the dissipa
1 tion of the Grecian-Bulgarian war-cloud. There is a growing
: sentiment in this country in favor of the World, Court and the
' League. These organizations together with the Locarno pact
are instruments of peace in Europe. It is inevitable that the
United States" shall soon take her place on the side of the
League of Nations and the World Court. : 't,;i; . " .
county, Tennessee, on May 4, 1836
and passed to her coronation in
heaven on November 16, 1925, in
Salem. Oregon, at the honored age
of 89 years, six months and 12
days. When ti little child she
moved with her parents to Clar
borne county,' Tennessee, near
Cumberland Gap, where she lived
until womanhood. At the age of
19 years she was united in mar
riage to J. D. Bellamy on October
2, 1S35, and for over 66 years
they traveled life's pathway to
gether, until his death in March,
1921, in his 90th year. A long,
happy married life was God's
blessing to them. In 1872 theede
ceased came with her husband and
family to Illinois. Then in 1905
she came to the state of Oregon
wnere the home was made until
the end. A family of 16 children
was born to the union, eight of
whom lived to attain maturity. Of
these children she is survived in
her death by Mrs. J. S. H. Walker,
J. W. Bellamy and ' Mrs. G. -W.
Wolfe of Salem. Or., Mrs. Otis S.
Gillette of Cosmonolis. Wash-
Mrs. F. W. Mcintosh of Aberdeen.
Wash., Mrs. John Eubanks, Hol-
comb. Mo., and John G. Bellamy
of Benton, 111. All of these child
ren are present at the funeral ex
cept Mrs. John Enbanks of Hol
co.mb. Mo., and John G. Bellamy of
Benton, III. Besides these child
ren there are. 34 grandchildren,
among whom are E. L. Bellamy of
Shelton; Wash., and T. K Bellamy
of La Grande, Or, Also 47 great
grandchildren and one great-great
grandchild.
Mary Jane Bellamy was a de
voted Christian woman. For over
50 years she had walked with her
God and tried to follow His com
mandments. At the age of 35
years she was converted to the
Christian faith and united with
the Methodist church. In this
church she was active and gave
her time and strength to its work
When she came to Oregon in 1905
she united with the Evangelical
church, because of its nearness to
her home, and so long as her
health permitted, she was atten
tive to its means of grace. She
was greatly loved by her church
and highly esteemed by her many
friends for her truthfulness and
honesty.
Her mortal body is at rest in
the Lee Mission cemetery, where
flowers will bloom until time shal
be no more.
Sleep on beloved, sleep and take
thy rest,
Lay down thy head upon thy Sa
viour's breast
We love thee well, but Jesus loved
, thee best farewell.
Farewell, until we meet again be
fore His throne.
Clothed in the spotless robe He
gives His own.
Until we know even as we have
known.
Until then we say: Farewell!
Until then we say: Farewell!"

6. Who also hath gone about

took, and would have judged ac

hands.

saying that these things were so.
10. Then Paul, after that the
governor had beckoned unto him
to speak, answered. Forasmuch as
know that thou hast been of
many years a judge unto this na
tion, 1 do the more cheerfully an
swer for myself:
11. Because that thou mayest
understand that there are yet but
12 days since I went up to Jeru
salem for to wprship:
12. And they neither found me
in the temple disputing with any
man, neither raising up the peo
ple, neither -in - the synagogues,
nor in the city:
13. Neither can they prove the
things whereof they now accuse
me.
14. But this I confess unto thee,
that after the way which they call
heresy, so worship I thy God of
my fathers, believing an tnings
which are. written in the law and
in the prophets:
15. And have hope toward God,
which they themselves also allow,
that there shall be a resurrec
tion of the dead, both of the just
and unjust.
16. And herein do I exercise
myself, to have always a con
science void of offense toward
God. and toward men.
17. Now after many years, l
came to bring alms to my nation,
and offerings.
18. Whereunon certain Jews
from Asia found me purified in j
the temple, neither with multi
tude, nor with tumult:
19. Who ought to have been
here before thee, and object, if
they had ought against me.
20. Or else let these same nere
say, if they have found any evil
doings in me, while I stood before
the council.
21. Except it be for this one
Toice, that I cried standing among
them. Touching the resurrection
of the dead. I am called in Ques
tion by you this day.
22. And when Felix heard these
things, having more" perfect knowl
edge of that way. he deferred
them, and said, When Lysias the
chief captain shall come down, 1
will know the uttermost of your
matter.'
23. And he commanded a cen
turion to keep Paul, and to let him
have liberty, and that he) should
forbid none ot his acquaintance
to minister or come unto him. .
24. And after certain1 -days,
when Felix came with his wife
Drusilla, which was a Jewess, he
sent for Paul, and heard him con
cerning the faith in Christ.
25. " And aa he -reasoned of
righteousness, temperance, and
judgment to come. Felix trembled,
and answered, Go thy way for this
time; when 1 have a convenient
season, I will call for thee.
26. ' He hoped also that money
should have been given him of
Paul, that "he might loose him:
wherefore he sent for him the
oftener. and communed with him.
27. Tint after two years, Por-
clus Festus came Into Felix room;
an4 lelix. willine to show the
Jews a pleasure, left Paul bound
I. Paul Accused
i -Paul was now in the hands of
Felix who determined to hear his
case after his accusers had come
from Jerusalem. Ananias, ' the
high priest, and elders came with
Tertullus perhaps a. Roman, bar
rister, who formally made the ac
custation according to Roman
law. He began with flattery. He
eave Felix the fullest praise when
he and all the people knew that
he lied, for Felix was one of the
worst governors, destitute of mor
oio and -iustiee. ' He brought a
four-fold charge against Paul: i
? -.1. "A -Pestilent Fellow.? 1. 1
"This would indicate a fellow
utterly . i base and corrupt
plague. !' ' :ir.v-.'
2. An Inciter of Rebellion, a
Mover of Sedition. 5. r,
This they hoped would bring
him Into conflict with the Roman
power. - V
ways of the Jews were -familiar
to him; he then in a dignified
manner assumes that Felix will
render a just decision based on
the facts of the case.
11-12.
He flatly and scornfully denied
this charge, showing its utter
falsity since the time was too
short, it being but 12 days since
he went to Jerusalem, and half
of that time had been spent as a
prisoner of the Romans.
3. The Charge of Heresy. 14-
16.
This he met by a concession and
a denial. He admitted that he
was of this "way" which they
called heresy, but denied that
Christians were schismatics. He
showed clearly that his actions
were in keeping with the Hebrew
religion.
14.
(2) He fully believed in the
same Scriptures. 14.
(3) He had tbe same hope of a
coming resurrection of the dead
15.
He declared that he had as tbe
principle of life a conscience void
of offense before God and man.
(4) The Charge of Sacrilege
or Profanation of the Temple
17-21,
This charge he refuted by
showing:
(1) That he had come all the
way from Greece 17, to worship
at tbe feast.
(2) That he did not come
empty-handed but had brought
alms for his nation. 17.
(3) That there were not com
petent witnesses present to tes
tify of his behavior in the temple
(4) By challenging his enemies
to testify as to his conduct in tbe
councu. 20.
III. Felix Trembles Before Paul
22-37.
This is a sort of a sequel to the
trial. Wicked as Felix was Paul's
manner somehow won his favor,
though he -did not rtlease him.
His sentence kept him free from
his enemies while under Roman
protection. Felix sent for Paul
that he might hear of Christ from
him. Paul behaved himself aright
before these sinners in high lite.
He reasoned of righteousness, self-
control .and judgment to come,
before 4i,elix 'and his sinful wife
with such, power that Felix was
terrified, and declared that he
united all China, came ot the
thTOne in 246 B. C. It was Chih
who built the Great Wall to keep
the country together.
A woman from the south, so
the legend runs, brought cotton-
wadded clothes for her man. who
had been impressed by the em
peror to help build the wall. She
was told that her husband had
died, and that she could not have
his body because it had been
thrown between the brick facings
of the wall and crushed there un
der tons of rubble and earth.
The woman persuaded a com
rade of her husband to show her
the stretch of wall where the body
of her husband lay. . Three days
and three nights thereafter she
walked up and down that length,
until the compassion of the divine
power was excited by her laments,
and that part of the wall collaps
ed. .
The scandal came to the ears
of the emperoj", who recognized,
beneath his tyranny, that the con
duct of the woman had been most
orthodox. To regularize the mat
ter, he directed that she be ad
mitted to his household. First,
however, he granted her prayer
that she be permitted to select the
bones of her husband for more
deliberate burial.
The woman gathered up her hus
band's bones and walked to the
end of the wall, abutting on the
sea. from which, before the guards
could stop her, she cast the bones
into the sea and herself after
them.
The imaee of the pious wife, in
imperial robes, stands in the tem
ple near the spot, while the breach
in the wall is now perpetual.

about honesty. "There was a

appearance wasn't prepossessing,

After some hesitation he gave

A clerk sought out the driver,
and asked him if the applicant was

"Why, his honesty's been proved
