on this bill.

That is not true. Senator McNary has made a public
statement, saying Mr. Steiwer is with him in his attitude on
the principle that is being worked out in this regard
' And there is really no definite McNary-Haugen. bill. In
the tremendous fight in the senate, after the bill had failed
in the house, a contest that lasted weeks on end, the bill, that
then came to be" known as the McNary bill, because the Ore

debate, in which he was assailed viciously by the enemies 01

; ,The McNary billjwas a different bill in language almost
every day ; made so by amendments that were offered in
committee and from the floor of the senate.
But the principle of the bill was the same all through, to
the end, when it was lost by the desertion of five or six mem-t
Jbers from the south; who wanted more for cotton than the
other members favoring the legislation were willing to accord
them ; ' - '.
And these southern senators were sorry thef day after
adjournment. They saw their mistake, arid they see it more
I plainly now! "They realize that the south might be saved

posed were law with such a bumper crop of cotton, selling

in the state papers that is full of lies; nearly all lies
And lies intended to deceive.
-,The ad says the Astoria chamber of commerce is against
the bill to put fish, wheels out of business. The Astoria cham

fish wheel owners kept on publishing the lie after the Astoria
chamber of commerce had denounced it.
. The ad.says the men backing the bill against fish wheels
are foreigners; fishermen. The state' of Oregon does not
issue; fishing licenses to other than American citizens.
The ad says the "Clatsop county press" is against the bill.
The1 Astoria Budget says that is a lie. The newspapers there
are 'for it; ''''4 ''

Season's Crops

(AP). The silver lining of the
rain clouds that poured tons, of
water over each Iowa acre during
September will be visible to farm
ers of the state when next year's
crops are harvested. .
A few weeks ago, flooded
streams and inundated lowlands
foretold hugei crop- losses. But
cheering statements from exper
ienced observers Indicate that this
year's scattered losses will be off
set by many indirect benefits
through the replenishing of the
water reservoir.
For many yearsMhe water re
serve has been depleted. Scarcity
of top soil water has interfered
with crop growth and the gradual
lowering of the permanent ground
water level has caused' shortage of
well waters
This j-ear's rains came at a sea
son whou the crops were dormant,
The water thus ( penetrated . the
lower levels, and also replenished
the soil water supply- It is esti
mated that only about 25 percent
of the precipitation was carried
off by the streams and that 'the
balance has so saturated the xsoi!
that the benefit will. be', marked
during the next growing season.
