Xo Rain Falls
July was absolutely rainless in
Salem, making two successive
years in which this phenomenon
has occurred. Such an event has
not happened twice in a row since
the beginning of recorded weather
history here, according to a re
port issued by the local weather
observer. Salem's rain schedule
is far behind normal this year,
owing to the drouth which has
persisted for two months. A max
imum for heat was established
last month when the thermometer
went to 107 degrees on July 10.

born in 1845, his father having
come to the state five years be
fore. W. R. McKay, born in 184 9,
ran him a close second. Charles
True of Middleton was the oldest
Oregonian present, having reached
the age of 91. He was excelled

PEACE OVERTURES FAIL
IN MEXICAN SITUATION
(Continued from paga 1.)
in some sections, but from this in
formation it appears that nothing
serious has developed anywhere.
Reports are that 17 persons
have been arrested and charged
with removing treasures and val
uable objects from Catholic
churches. The Mexico City au
thorities are investigating reports
of municipal committees appoint
ed to take over the churches that
valuables are missing from many
of the edifices, including the ca
thedral. While the cathedral continues
closed pending a further check of
the inventory of its treasurers, the
other churches were open again
today, although only a moderate
number of worshippers were seen
inside in Mexico City.
Thus far there is title or no evi
dence of the boycott under the
auspices of the League for the
Defense of Religious Freedom in
Mexico City, although some com
mercial houses and retailers ex
press as apprehension that it may
develop. In contrast, news from
other sections of the republic
shows that the boycott is in full
swing in numerous towns, the
people refraining from all pos
sible expenditures in the hope of
creating an economic crisis suffi
ciently serious to influence the
government to modify its regula
tions. There have been numerous joint
debates, with speakers represent
ing both sides of the controversy,
but thus far all have been peace
ful. The first debate in Mexico City
was between the secretary of edu
cation. Dr. Jose Puig Casaurance,
and Rene Capistran Garza, one of
the directors of the league for the
defense of religious liberty, who
is under bail awaiting formal trial
on the charge of inciting the peo
ple to disturbance by means of the
boycott.
This debate wa sconducted in
Mexico City theatre and was
largely attended by an orderly
crowdx Each side cheered as
points were scored.

Copies of The Statesman con
taining the series of editorial ar
ticles on the sugar industry are
going to persons interested in the
development of this industry here,
and extra slips will be printed and
preserved, to be used in the same
way, and to help in interesting the
farmers of the Salem district who
will be asked to grow the beets
for Salem's first factory. Perhaps
ether uses will be found for the
series.
The surest way to secure beet
sugar factories in the Willamette
valley is to get our people to think
ing sugar; to get them to realize
the value of the sugar industry to
the men on the land, both direct
and indirect; and especially indi
rect. And the immense benefits
that will accrue to the cities where
the factories are to be located.
m
The time is now ripe for the de
velopment of the beet sugar in
dustry in this valley. The biggest
thing in respect to its ripeness is
the ravages' of the beet leaf hop
per in a number of the sugar dis
tricts of the country, putting at
least 10 of the 11 idle factories
in this country out ol business,
and crippling others. Our im
munity from this pest is the big
thing.
