The majority of the is sues of South American countries are in default. While thus far none has been repudiated there is little doubt that in sev- . eral of the countries a scaling down of the debt will be re quired before the state will resume any payments. While European countries have done much better, the Quotations which prevail seem in a great many cases to have discounted interest suspensions and possible scale-down of principal. Every once in a while we read of some publicist jumping all over foreign states for. their faithlessness in borrowing money and then failing to meet the terms of the loan. Germany has been scolded severely for borrowing as much as she paid oh reparations, and for erecting preten tious public buildings out of public funds, instead of prac ticing rigid economy and holding down borrowings. Severe as most Americans now feel toward the for eigner, who owes them (and toward the American banking house that peddled the merchandise) they do not realize that American history is not without its record of default and repudiation. About a century ago the states went on a bond ing spree, and some of the debts incurred at that time are still unpaid. For many others there was suspension of inter est f or a time, which later was made up or compromised. The names include some of our richesttates, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota. All of these eventually cleared their record, Jhut other states, Mississippi,' Florida, Arkan sas still .have pre-Civil war debts which have never been paid off. Most of these bonds "were sold in England and are still held there. ' ' The period of the 1830's was marked by state expan sion and state invasion of private business pri a big scale. State banks were financed by state bond issues. Mississippi ' financed two banks this way. Florida had a territorial bank, Arkansas a real estate bank. States guaranteed railroad bonds or bought stock in railroads from the proceeds of bond issues. Levee bonds or drainage or canal bonds were issued. In 1837 the panic came, years of depression followed, tax re ceipts fell off and defaults occurred. ! Rev. Sydney Smith, canon of St. Paul's, London, held : Pennsylvania bonds which had fault. In 1834 he wrote in a petition to congress seeking ; redress: ' - "Figure to yourself a Pennsylranian, receiving foreigners in Ills own country, walking over the public works with them, ana showing them Larcenous Lake, Swindling Swamps. Crafty - Canal and RoguV Railway, and other dishonest works. 'This swamp we gained," says the patriotic borrowers, 'by the repu diated loan of 1828. Our canal robbery was in 1836. We pock eted your good people's money, for the railroad only last year. All this may seem very smart to the Americans, but it I had the misfortune to be born among such a people, the land of my fath ers would not restrain me a single moment after the act of re pudiation. I would appeal from my fathers to my forefathers" . After the Civil war many, bonds chiefly for railroad aid. petbag government and graft bond issues as the loot. Later many of the southern states repudiated their post-war debt. Some states, Mississippi, '"Florida, I Arkansas. have "even adoDted constitutional amendments prohibiting any or levying taxes for the repudiated debts. In each of these . cases a portion or all the debt ran clear back to the extrava gant days! of state bank financing in the 1830's. i It is jnot necessary to go far afield either for bonds of government units which have turned out badly. The local improvement bonds of many Washington cities proved a sinkhole for the investment funds of many innocent purch asers, while the Oregon irrigation district bonds, which bore the signatures of state officials and a limited guarantee of interest Dy tne state, fill a sorry chapter in the public finan cing of our own state. ; - This gives no comfort, it of foreign lands where financial troubles are now acute. But Americans if they know their history, should not be too se vere in their condemnation of the faithlessness of their for eign debtors With American states still having outstanding some D,yuu,uuu-worui pi bonds defaulted and repudiated, uu ntwij tuMiici umu vi Kuvermueni, now irying to com promise tl deir bond Issues at a paid, our pwn record for financial virtue is none too clear. ; Voter in WahderlanU ; iflOL.

One "VETERANS' RELIEF" publish ed in the Capitol Journal and the ether "REVOLT OF THE SER VICE MEN", published - in the Oregon Statesman. Now either or bother of these papers are labor ing under misapprehension as to the merits of the ex-service men's adjusted service certificate, or are manifestly hostile toward the ex service men in this community. Therefore looking at the press in a charitable light, .will say that the articles are written under misapprehension of the veterans Tights and merits of the claim. First: The amount of adjusted service- compensation certificates Issued to World war veterans to uts 2 K billions dollars. That con gress provided for a payment of 50 of the face value of these certificates as a loan to the vet eran at 4 compound interest. The veteran has now borrowed 1 and 1-3 billions dollars under this provision. This money has not been raised by taxation by the federal government from any source whatsoever. This money has been taken from the adjusted service- certificate fund and from the War Risk Insurance fund, for which every ex-service men con tributed out of his monthly earn" ings during the time he was serv ing in the armed forces of the S. during the World war. Thus we have- the curious situation of a man borrowing one half ef his entire reserve,at a rate of inter est, which it such Interest is not paid will completely anihllate the remaining portion of that reserve In a period of a little, over 14 years. Let us see in all fairness to the merits of the case, if any one has conducted organized raids against the United States treas ury, and If so whoT At the close of the World war after, the sur render of federal government con trol of railroads of this country the Esch-Cumins bill passed by congress paid the railroads 1U billion dollars In adjusted com pensation and instructed the In terstate Commerce commission o add 7 billion dollars to the phy sical valuation of their proper ties. In addition to that and re gardless of President Hoover's pledge, and plea for economy that on account of the condition of the treasury the ex-service men should not ask for the remainder of his wages earned 14 years ago. uegaraiess of this olea the rail roads have demanded, and the ad ministration is about to give them in casn tne further sum of two billions. Beginning in the year 1922 and up to the years 1929 the federal government has refunded to the big business corporations on the theory of excess depreciation andJ refunded them the sum of two billion dollars. Please bear in mind that these large corpora tions are on a ratio of about 90 World war contracts and World war profiteers. II toe ex-service men who fought in the trenches and went through the intense military training during the war for a wage of $1.10 per day, had been paid in cash on the Bame ratio as the railroads and big interests as above referred" to have been nald. he would now have for every $1,- ooo.oo held by virtue of the ad- Justed service certificate have due from the government 85,000.- The argument has been advan-H ced that the veteran administra tion .spends a large amount each year for the relief ef the World war veteran. It must be born In mind -that the veterans adminis tration has charge ot the affairs of the veterans of all wars and by no stretch of Imagination can the full amount, be charged to the Veteran of the World war. Fur thermore no amount of this mon ey jib belng. pal to able bodied men of the World war. Had It not been for the bravery of our American soldier at the front carrying our arms to vic tory, what would be the nrlce that this government and business in general would be forced to pay the Imperial German government and ber allies. It would mean for one thing that 3-4 of the profits oi tne newspapers of this country wouia be taken as a war tax and reparations by--the Imperial Ger man government. In the light-of wis established historic fact born out by other wars, it seems to as it little behooves the press of this country to begrudge and oppose n nonest aebt ana compensation . ue to ex-service men. and that each Indifference would be so tri vial as against former conditions herein mentioned that the same would not be worthy of computa tion. Since we have obtained vic tory instead of loss, we receive criticism instead of : assistance from those most able to render assistance via., the press.

Puvcxr J Tomorrow: "Cobras in the Air" BITS for BREAKFAST By it J. HENDRICKS Butcher shops: TTnder that headinc. O. B. Woodworth, old time Salem boy and young man, now of Portland, writes for this comma: "We call them meat markets now, but many years ago iney were ealled butcher shops, be cause every snop naa - its own slaughter house and did its own killing. The shops were all alike. There was always sawdust on the floor, the chopping block was a cross section of an oak tree, they woud check whUe drying, but wedges were driven into the cracks to make a good surface. They were not sanitary, but that word had not been coined at the time, or it tt was no one ever heard of it. All of the meat be fore it was cut up was hung out in front at the edge ot the side walk where it could collect the dust and dirt and where the flies and dogs could get a good whack at it - "It was a common practice to let It hang out all night. There was always a chunk of liver left outside and no one touched it. Liver was not popular. In fact It was decidedly unpopular. The shops all gave it away. Not one ever charged for liver. There was what was called 'liver boarding houses'. By this it was meant that the boarding house keeper fed his boarders on liver too much, as he got it for nothing. In fact there were more shes do ing this than hes." S "One of the first, and a popu lar place, and one which has sur vived to the present days was owned by Tommy Cross. It was located on the north side of Cen ter street, near Liberty. The posts which supported the awn ing were made from trees in a natural state with part of the limbs left on to-the length of some six or eight inches. These posts were painted a bright green, and painted quite fre quently. There was a brick walk In front of the shop. A painting of this old shop is still shown in one of the meat markets in Sa lem. ' Is S "Tommy Cross was also a packer. He had a large slaughter house southeast ot Salem a short distance, near MU1 creek. He had a method for- curing hams that gave them a fine flavor and a reputation that extended to Chi cago. Many ot his hams were sent to Chicago for sale through Allen Lewis ef Portland, Ore gon. It would be Interesting at this date to know Just how these hams were routed. His shop was also famous for its corned beef. He did not wait tor the beef to get to a point where he had to corn it to save It. it was cornea while fresh, and the whole car cass at that. The business was handed down to his sons and grandsons, and its successor is in existence today. "Some of the shops were filthy beyond description. There was one that was owned by man with the JQlck name of 'Dirty Dan'. He deserved the name for the manner in which he kept his shop, but that is not the "way the name waa hung onto him He was a German and spoke some what brokenly. The census taker, in questioning him, asked how old he and his wife were. He re- replied, 'My wife is dirty and am dirty-two. W "A unique character as far as hi, personal appearance was con earned was Mr. Nesbitt, an Bag llshman, who was known as 'the butcher with the 'golden thumb' on account of a habit he- had of weighing hia thumb with every piece ot meat sold. His face was adorned with corkscrew sldeburn whiskers. He took great pride in them; curled and trimmed them dally. He also wore ping hat at aU times while in the shop. A good eitlxen and intensely relig ious. His ' shop was extremely eleaa and. his apron always white and spotless. S m r rJ. C.

He never owned a shop of his own, being what would be called today a 'meat cutter. . He was not only a meat cutter but a butcher as well. He would get up in the morning as early as 4 o'clock, go to the slaughterhouse, do the killing for the following day, then go to the shop and wait on customers. He was an artist in his line of work. A fine looking -man with a military bearing, a good singer, and. above all, a gentleman. Very par ticular as to bis dress, which was always in the latest fashion and scrupulously clean. He demon strated the proposition that work never degrades the individual, that it is the individual that de grades the work. No social event was complete without the pres ence of Frank Bewley. He went in the best of society and was sought out by the ladies, with whom he played no favorites. S S "His principal accomplishment was his ability to read the Dec laration of Independence. The privuege of reading the Declara tion at every Fourth of July cel ebration was accorded to him and was never usurped. With a fine' presence and farreaching voice, it was a pleasure to listen to him. He was invited to read at a Port land celebration, which pleased him so much. V . The meats sold were of excel lent quality and very cheap, al though the quality varied with the seasons. There waa practical ly no stan fed beef. It was all obtained from range cattle from the bunch grass country of east ern Oregon. Large droves were driven in over the mountain pass es. Very Uttle of these were win ter fed; it was the custom to let the cattle run at large and make their own way. Many starved during a hard winter. Those that survived were in a poor condition in the early spring, but fattened very quickly on the fine bunch grass, making a new growth of flesh which had a fine flavor. They were fully maturesXbefore being slaughtered, four years old being 'about the right age. S Is "There, is one memory that stands out, and that is the paper used for wrapping the meat. There was nothing but straw paper to be had. It had practical ly no binder, was thin and brittle and absorbed moisture like blot ting paper, and there being no delivery as is had today, every one had to tote his own meat. It was a common sight to see some one straggling along with a big steak or hung of meat with part of it hanging out of the paper and dripping all over his clothes There was no cutting It np and displaying in show cases. The meat was cut as ordered.. What a . contrast between then and new?" V S "Thomas Cross, the pioneer meat packer mentioned by Mr. Woodworth, was succeeded by B. C. Cross, his son. E. C. Cross waa succeeded by -Curtis B. Cross, his son. who is one ot the owners and managers of the Valley Pack ing company. Up to the early eighties, all of the part ot Salem east, ot the Bash property and soath of Mission street, and from the Southern Pacific line to Com mercial street, including the pres ent Nob Hill section, was known as the "Cross pasture." The beet cattle of Thomas Cross roamed there. K ' The 8alem Directory for 18T2 gave the location of the shop ot Wm. Nesbitt as "Commercial be tween State and Court, and his residence aa "High between Che meketa and Center. Homes and business places were not num bered in Salem then. J. Cv Thompson had his home then at the "corner of High and Chemeketa." Later he 'erected a home further . east The Thomas Cross residence was "eorneriCen ter and Liberty.

V J CHAPTER 3LV- Ayoa like to dance?' he shot at ber. . t, xxcr eres ut up, iiutwH rr , m.1 what she wairtal fun, music, play. Not with somebody she admired but with somebody she liked! "Of course I like to dance," she told him. "If I go to dinner with yon, will yon take me some place where we can dance, too? . He laughed with clear, ringing amusement at the sheer joy of be ing well-conditioned and in New York with a date that was provoc ative, and somehow marvelously agreeable. , . "Will I take you dancing? Oh, stepmother of mine! I'm going to dance right through my shoes this fright, because I've been cramped np five days on a rail road train and the old dogs are wild for exercise. Is it the lift? I ask you! Am I happy am I delighted am I overwhelmed? He grinned at her arid made a funny grotesque quirk with his eye brows. She couldn't help it she had to giggle at him. None of the New York boys Mary knew had such a racy line she supposed it was because he was from, the West. "I'm sorry I have that lunch date with a girl today, she told him, "but III tell you we can go to din ner early, can't we?" Her meeting with Steve Moore had the effect of sending. Mary's spirits soaring. A bright golden thread ran through the monotony of her office toil the balance of the day. He was never completely out of her mind, he amused her; he banished all worry. Buck Landers grew fainter in her consciousness. At her work she found herself humminsr under her voice. At the same time, curiously, all ef the kinks and tangles of her past discontent were blotted out; she was more patient, more sympathetic with the stupidity of the family re lationship she had left behind in Brooklyn. They had no power to imprison her within the drab circle of their own lives. She wanted to be as. nice as possible to her sister. Next week, perhaps, she would buy her a small present, a new little dress. Gradually-Mary began -to feel a surprising sense of confidence and security and all the while Steve Moore was in the back of her mind. He did what Buck Landers had never been able to do, he made L her feet superior. She left the office early and went heme to dress in her very best Yesterdays . . .

Sh waa glad, theugn, that they were not going te some oppres sively still place like tne riaxa or the Belmont. Even the Mortgen hoff, where Buck Landers had taken her, was too mature and expensive for a boy like Steve those places were far too elaborate for moderate youth. A little streak of affection ate common sense gave Mary a pro tective feeling toward Steve; of course, had he been rich it would be different, but he wasnt rich yet. But no sooner had Steve given the address of Aladdin's Lamp to the driver than she realized ' they were going te exactly the right place. True, she had never 'been there herself, but she had beard of its agreeable atmosphere, its touch of theatrical smartness and the excellence of its table-d'hote dinners and celebrated international bora d'oeuvres. It was' downtown and, by some miracle, not prohibitive in cost- As they drove it seemed to Mary that Steve' was the easiest person on earth to be with ; she was under no strain whatever. Sometimes be said silly ' thines that were not especially witty, yet he had a trick of mind that saw life through dif ferent eyes. By the tome they reached the restaurant, he had her laughing at everything he said. In the low, softly lighted dining room he continued to blossom; he toolr charge of the dinner with easr assurance. He was adamant with the head waiter and procured the best table in the place. He ordered with surety. They sat opposite each other at the small table and were bathed im mediately in the melodious throb- binsr of the stringed band, which contrived to keep its jazz subdued. yet effective. "Shall we demonstrate?' Steve inquired, and Mary rose, quickly willing. Steve passed his arm around her and they moved off smoothly with the music. The muted vibrations joined them bodily in perfect, ef fortless rhythm of movement. Im mediately each knew they could dance together interminably 'with out boredom. Just by the act of, dancing, Mary seemed to know Steve better.
