Yamhill county must be very proud of Alex Cruickshank.
The Eugene Register of yesterday had the' following lead
ing editorial paragraphs: i
"A great deal has been said in this column within the past
few days about the $3,000,000 pear crop which has been
marketed this year in the Medford district.! A great deal
has been said for the "simple and obvious reason that it is
an interesting- and significant subject.
"The fruit industry is a big industry in Oregon, and here
and there pessimists are to be found who will say that the
fruit industry is not prof itabler The Texpence of the Rogue
river pear growers is proof that the pessimists do not al
ways know what they are talking about, ; .
"As W. G. Ide, manager Df .the Orego State Chamber of
Commerce, said in a letter printed on this page the other day,
the big thing is standardization of quality.; That is what
the Rogue river pear growers have donethey have stand
ardized their quality. Having accomplished that big task,
they are able to market their product at a profit.
"Some of the fruit districts of Oregon are! suffering from
lack of adequate markets, but when their situation is anal
yzed it is found all too often that they lack a standardized
quality product.
"Frequently they are growing too many products, with
..none of them outstanding as to quality. f
"Among the standardized quality products of Oregon are
walnuts and filberts, and this fortunate situation is largely
due to the efforts of the Western Nut Growers association.
"Thanks o the work that has been done by this associa
tion, every walnut and filbert bearing the association mark
is guaranteed as to quality. The result is a ready market.
Here again, quality scores. i
"The day is past, if it was ever here, when just any kind
of fruit or nut can be sold at a profit. Buyers in these mod
ern days are demanding quality, and in the main they are
willing to pay the price. The obvious thing to do is to pro
vide the quality, and then guarantee it. ; '
"The Western Nut Growers association, incidentally, will
meet at Salem December 7 and B, which' is next Wednesday
and Thursday. (. I . ' ;
"Among the interesting addresses will j be a suryey of
market conditions by W. H. Bentley, of Dundee; a talk on
chestnut' prospects, by J. O. Holt, of Eugene ; a report on
walnut seedlings, by C'E. Sfchuster, of O. A. C; and a dis
cussion of filbert pruning, by George A- Dorris, of Spring
T field. - I
'The nut is. one of the most promising of all tree crops in
western . Oregon. The filbert, in particular, '. looks like a
western Oregon monopoly, in which event its market future
ought to be promising The 1927 meeting of the nut asso
ciation ought to be an interesting and profitable one. '
The Eugene Register is correct. The meeting In Salem
next Wednesday and Thursday will be an interesting and
' profitable one;
; And in the other statements the Eugene paper is correct.
Secretary Webb of the California Walnut' Growers asso
ciation has just reported that the present walnut crop of
that state is four times greater than that of 1926; that il
wiU return to the growers $13,000,000; that the present crop
totals 42,000 tons, and marketing of 90 per cent of it will
be finished by December 20
And yet Oregon's crop of a thousand tons is selling high-
er on the same grades than California's crop, because we can
and do grow a superior walnut. And we can produce walnuts
all the way from 4 to 9 cents a pound cheaper than they can
be grown in California; considering among other things low
er land values here; less overhead. j
As to the filbert, it not only "looks like a western Oregon
rronopoly," but is; it is one of our franchise crops.
And as to pears, we have here in the Salem district more
nearly a pear paradise than the Medford district has. This
was the testimony o the late Prof. C. L ewis; author of
a text book on pears. It is the testimony of Marion County
Fruit Inspector s. H. Van Trump. It is the fact..
We can grow here as good pears as Medford, with the same
attention; and we can grow them at a less cost, and more of
them ; vastly more, because' we have vastly more acres of
suitable pear land. . j
FROM OLD YAMHILL
(Portland Journal) ;
A Yamhill county boy is America's outstanding leader in
toys and girls' club work. 4 ' t
He is "Alex Cruickshankv 19, a sophomore inTthe. Oregon
State colleare, and the distinction came to him in a' recent
national club leader contest where he won first prize as the
best boys' and girls club leader in the United States. It is
the second time the prize as the nation's best club leader
has come to the : westi He also won the national prize as
the best local club leader, and it is th first time both prizes
have ever been won by a single contestant. -V. .
For the first prize he received $250 in cash. Forthe oth

'Old Yamhill against! the world"; was a pioneer . Oregon

Some of the people out in the northern limits of the city
are raising objections to the location of the incinerator in
that section: :, They lack vision. They are alarmed at a
shadow. The people out that way, and clear down to St.
Paul and old Champoeg, could afford to subsidize the loca
tion of the incinerator on the proposed site, for it will bring
the sewage disposal plant there, and that will make the
whole northern section of the county, along the river, one
of the richest districts in this state, or any state.
The walnut and filbert men, to meet in Salem on Wednes
day and Thursday, should be given a royal welcome. They
are the forerunners of two of our greatest industries on the
land. I ' , lL

Al Smith Breaks Silence
On Dry Enforcement Issue
ALBANY, N. Y., Dec. 2. (AP)
For the first time since he has
been prominently mentioned as a
democratic presidential possibility,
Governor Alfred E. Smith Ct New
York state tonight broke bis sli-l
ence on the prohibition question
by declaring that while he stands
tor enforcement of all laws, he
sees no reason why any group of
voters should not oppose the fed
eral prohibition statutes.
The i - governor declaration,:
made at' the annual convention
dinner of the ; New .York State
League of women voters, was in
answer to a resolution adopted by
the Nassau county branch of the
league .condemning organized op
position to the eighteenth amend
ment and the l Volstead act and
urging "respect tor and obedience
to law." H : .
"Whafe wrong about that?"
asked the governor after he had
read the section of the resolution
referring to organization of a
group to oppose j the prohibition
laws. . "Is there any reason why
the opposition should not organ-j
lzer Is there any question about
the solidity, force and effective
ness of the forces on the other
side of the question when by their
own announcement : they will .re
quire $5,000,000 for the operation
of their organization in the next
five years T -
"Is the right of our people to
organize to oppose any law and
any part of the constitution with
which they are not in sympathy. I
have taken an oath of office as as
semblyman, as sheriff of New
York county and ' four times as
governor, to sustain the constitu
tion of the state pt New York and!
yet there are parts of it I hate. I
have promised to sustain It, but I
have not promised to give up any
right to oppose any part of it I
don't like." r
Glancing down at the copy of
the Nassau county league's reso
lution the governor then quoted:
"Respect for, and obedience to
law Is vital for the preservation
of any form of government."
wub . enaractemuc smith ex-
ploslveness, the governor broke in
with his own comment: .
"This is so fundamental that no
body differs with it. Any well or
ganised government must rest up
on that principle.'
Quoting again from the resolu
tion Governor Smith went on:
"And nullification Is being
preached by those in authority."
"I would like the specifications
of that," he continued. "It's news
to me. I have no record of public
expreasion of any one in thia state
who has preached a doctrine of
nullification of the constitution.
Certainly T never preached 11 I
took directly the opposite view."
:y The governor then recalled that
In the fall of 1928 he had attend
ed, with the governors of several
other states, a conference in Wash
ington called by President Cool-
ldge to discus law enforcement.
: "We had a perfectly delightful
time; a luncheon at the Whit
House with fine Maryland chicken
and all the trimmings," he said.
"All the different governors of the
states made speeches- Oh, how
vigorous, they were for, law en
forcement but h they were all
made for the record, for the folks
back home. ' ,
"The suggestion was made that
each executive call all his law en
forcement officers to his capital
and warn' them that the eighteenth
a.v endment and the Volstead act
were a part of the law and that it
was their, sacred obligation to en
force them. We left Washington.
I came back here and filled the
assembly chamber . with law en
forcement officers and carried out
exactly the sentiment of the Wash
ington conference. Six month3
later I learned to my surprise that
I was only one of two governors
who carried out the resolution."
