Jobs by Prayer v f t - - -
THE archbishop of Canterbury has ent oat a letter to
his churches directing prayers on Sunday, lec 21, for a
. solution of the unemployment , problem in Great Britain. We
do not know just how he has worded his epistle, but he has
Eobably been adroit enough not to ask for pi a j era for def
ile jobs, merely for divine guidance, u. i ; i 5
i.If the British pastors. made a. test case out of it and
prayed for; jobs for all who were outof work, then "if the
jobs were not forthcoming, right away their parishoners
rniht do like they used to with ancient idols who proved
helpless-in crisis, they, might turn against the tieity whom
the priests; invoked. " t . ; . 5 v -
f In the case of prayers 'for rain the ecclesiasta have
more of a chance,' since the rains 'always do come if one is
patient; likewise even th floods cease after a time. In Eng
land with unemployment as. chronic as it is, the archbishop
is too intelligent to expect immediate jobs for all even after
th united imprecations of his clergy. 1 , ; s e l
; Cromwell who was something of a saint as well as a
general, had the right idea of divine aid when he said, or is
said to have said, "Trust God, and keep your powder dry".
Unemployment is more of an economic problem than a re
ligious one; but confessedly its solution does seem baffling
to mortal mind. . v '--' v-' .. . t , -.
' i One thing we win miss if the Norrls amendment to abolish
Taiae duck sessions of congress Is adopted and that is the pros

in a blennlum. Sessions ought to begin in January, we grant;, but
they ought to end some time before a- year from the next March

The report says the Stayton co
operative cannery has bought new
property. In order to have addi
tional space for buildings to be
built to accommodate expanding
business and that SI new grow
er members have recently been en
rotted, who will farther increase
the volume of the annual pack of
"fruits and vegetables going to
many markets." V

This will mean more farms la
Marion county. The number grew
from S681 in 1920 to 4S2I this
year, according to the census reports-
1144 new farma tor the 10
years. This growth Is bound to
continue. The canntng and pack

more and more strawberries; the
Etterburg type for canning and -the
Marshall type for barreling

all the rest. j
" We have dosens of specialty or

can turn off flax and hemp fibers

An organiser knowing how to
organise, and having and merit
ing the absolute confidence of our
men on tho land, could, with only ;
tho money advanced that may be
had from federal sources, put a
primary flax and hemp plant in
nearly every town within 50 miles
of Salem. ,

A plant that would give growth
and stability to the towns, and
prosperity and., thrift L In ; many
ways to their trade fields. This
would speed ap the division of the "
large farms into small ones; put
to profitable use Idle and slacker
acres, and Impart an Impetus to
the forward movements in Ore

Besides new farmers, we need
men of vision; men who know
how to do things; ambitious, hon
est, willing to prove themselves
for great leadership before reap
ing the future substantial re
wards that would be theirs.
