Ray Gill on Tariffs '
The annual report of the master of the Oregon State
Grange is a document comparable Jn -its field to thepresi
denfs message on the "state of the nation though iU field u
limited to agriculture in Oregon. In the report of Ray W. Gjii
delivered Monday at the convention at Corvallis there is data
revealing that the "state of agricultureis none too-healthy.
He observed: v v- 7 .
. "Products of the farm have detuned 'to II per cent of pre
war level bet commodities the tarcner-anaatqy eoet IS percent
... the exchange value of farm crops la only 7 per m io
pre-war leeL In ltlt the total farm Income of thenaUon, Inclnd-
' In benefit payments amounted to 7.lli;t0w..w. or one billion
lees than 1937 and two and one-half billion, leas than the ave-
- rage for the period of HIS to 1111. .'We must givet the pres
ent administration credit for their earnest desire to assist the
agriculture of the nation. Many measures hare been adopted
-which have been of Immense value '.to 'the-farmers. '.However. It
is eyident that these weU Intended measures haye not wholly an
swered the problems. . . Subsidies'. . . are undoubtedly necessary
to meet serious emergencies but they do not reach the source of
the trouble. ' - " , "
Master Gill then reiterates the -national grange slogan
"The American market for the American Farmer, and
roundly criticizes the reciprocal trade agreement. In another
portion of the report he deals more specifically with tariff a
and the attitude expressed there is significant when taken in
t conjunction with the above-quoted mention of disparity be
tween farm prices and the prices of articles the farmer must
buy t
"The Grange has never, taken an unreasonable attitude re
garding tariff protection but the National Grange has declared
that the policy of this government should be tariff for all or tar
iff for none.'
Here the grange master has struck upon one of the fun
damental ills of the tariff system; inequality. It contributes
to the general maladjustment of national economics men
tioned by President Erb of the University of Orecron in an ad
' dress here last summer, in which he declared that it makes
Jittle difference whether prices are high or low, if all fluctu
ate equally. That generality requires some exceptions, but
suffices f orthe present discussion. It is undeniable that man
ufactured goods have had too much protection and agricul
ture, by comparison, too little.
The national grange's slogan, however, collides with the
undeniable fact that in order to sell, this nation must buy from
others, and that with surpluses being produced, the farm
problems will not be solved until exnort markets are opened.
Reverting now to Gill's discussion of the farm problem itself .
it is noted that he advocates the "Cost of Production" bills, but
(adds that the following things are necessary to make this idea
workable i
iV -if "A flexible tariff wall high enough to protect the American
L' prices; reciprocal trade agreements. . . must be supplement with
i excise taxes or offset payments to protect agriculture from for--1,
eign importations; agricultural products should be protected
against any Increased competition from substitutes: consumers
' must be protected against extreme and rapid price Increases;
J prices established should be baaed upon average costs in produe
ing areas; while quotas would necessarily be established based
upon domestic use and exportable surplus, we oppose acreage
": controls upon historic basis."
i' Now if the reader will iust wade through that list of pro
posals a second time, he will note that they involve a series of
artificial adjustments, m some cases necessitated bv the art
ificialities rjreviouslv nrorjosed. It is an example of the end
lessness of regulations necessary, one regulation is beVun. As
:Jf climax, Gill opposes arbitrary regulation upon a "historic"
basis. Barring that, there must he regulation upon some other
basis iust as arbitrary and just as painful to some prodnrers.
1 To sum it up, there is no simple solution for the farm
problem and every artificial solution bumos into one oi tries.'
endless series of adjustments. There is iust one solution and
. it is not simple which avoids these objections. It reouires
that the farmer recapture his own economy, in order that he
, may realize a. greater percentage of the ultimate value of .hi
produce. Having done that, he would find the problems of
supply and demand less difficult of solution. Before starting
. ''on the first step, he may as well abandon the idea that govern
ment will ever accomnlish any real "farm relief. The farmer
must do it for himself. ' .

V Pausing for observation at a street corner where hun

ifind infinite material for reflection in an attempt to diagnose
the thoughts, aims, hopes and

periences and similar life prospects.
a It is in this matter of life prospects, the observer might
! reflect, that today's youth differs from the same age group
of a dozen years ago. Scanning the faces of the hurrying
Ithrong. his effort might be to read in them the psychological
effect of this difference. However, youth is somewhat poker-
faced and facial expression is at best an uncertain guide to
the thoughts behind it Teachers who come into closer contact
with these young people have a better idea of what thev are
thinking, but even in their case

thoughts. . "
; J 2 Nor may "the ideas that youth expresses on paper be ac
cepted as an unerring guide. Some fundamental thought may
be held back. Yet when some 350.000 students participate in
an essay contest such as that just conducted by American

who was murdered on August Sth,
was also killed within two miles
of Fort Lane. (Fort Lane, near
Jacksonville, had been built and
manned by U. S. troops.) Soon
after followed the news ... of
the murder of three white men
on the lower Rogue."
Quoting further along. "The
murderers, Indian Tom and Indian
George (murderers of Kyle) were

The officers of the court were: O.
B. McFadden, judge; S. Sims, pro

"The sentence of the court was

The sentence was, however, on ac
count of the troublesome times,
carried out a few days after the
trial.
'These were the only Indians
ever punished for crime by the
authorities in southern Oregon."
Of course, by civil authorities
was meant. That is. Tom and
George were the only Indians in
early day southern Oregon pun
ished by the civil authorities. The
rest of the punishments were by
military authorities: volunteers or
regular army forces.
The place of that hanging is in
teresting. It should be marked
Wonder if any of the people of
Jackson county know the spot?
This writer is not sanguine of
an easy or early attention to be
the matter. He has, for some
years, been trying to locate the
place of the Battle of the Mead
ows, the most Important engage
ment in all the Indian troubles of
that region. So far without suc
cess. The date was May 27-8,
1858, and it was the engagement
which closed the war of 1855 last
ing Into that year, and sent the
last of the worst bands to the res
ervation. Many prominent persons
engaged and circumstances in
volved make that battle highly
historic. So it would seem erery
man in southern Oregon - should
be interested in having the site
located and marked.
The Indian wars -of southern
Oregon were no slight quarrels.
Note these words from the Victor
bodk: ;
"According to the report of the
secretary of war, the Indian dis
turbances in southern Oregon in
1851 cost the lives of over 100
white . persons, and several bun
dred Indians. In making his esti
mate the secretary must have In
eluded the northern portion of
California, which by reason of the
unsettled boundary line was at
that time pretty generally spoken
or as being in Oregon.
"The expense to the general
government was said to be 8T000
a day, with, only 808 to 800 men
in the field; and hostilities in the
short period : of little ever
month to have cost a total of
8288,000.

ri f mrtie.ua am the aianificaace and
history of the Willamette valley project).
The initial approximately ff.-
evO.QOe to be expended von the
Willamette river basin project will
be sufficient to tally construct
the Cottage Grove dam, located
seven miles np the Coast fork
from Cottage Groves halt enough
to complete the Dorena dam on
the Bow river, seven miles north
east of Cottage Grove, and two-
thirds enough to complete the
Fern Ridge dam on the Long Tom,
12 miles west of Eugene.
The Cottage Grove dam, which
wUl be located at Hebron, six
miles south of Cottage Grove, will
be the least expensive of all the
dams, on the basis of estimates.
To cost 11,374.000, this reservoir
win form a lake S4 miles long
and about a mile wide at the max
imum.
It will take a year and a half
to construct this dam, which will
have a usable storage of 30,000
acre feet of water, a lake surface
of 1100 acres, of which 700 Is now
under cultivation, 400 in timber
which will have to be removed be
fore construction starts, and 20
in open pasture.
This dam will be 90 feet high
at the deepest point, with the pool
level to be It feet above the nor
mal stream level.
It will be an earth rolled fill,
as will also the Dorena and Fern
Ridge dams. Some 835,000 cubic
yards of dirt will go into the dam
and about 10,440 cubic yards of
concrete wiU be used in the spill
way and outlet tunnel which will
be dug out of the rock formation
which rises high above the eastern
bank of the Coast fork.
Lake Six Miles Long
The Dorena reservoir, to cost
around $3,200,000 and building of
which will take an estimated two
years, will be across the Row riv
er, west of Dorena, and will form
a lake which trill go upstream six
miles to provide a usable storage
of 70,000 acre feet of water. The
lake will be around three-fourths
of a mile wide along the lower
half.
Construction Of this dam will
entail relocation of five miles of
the Cottage Grove-Bohemia high
way and six miles of the Pacific
and Eastern logging railroad be
cause the area over which these
run, as well as the community of
Dorena, will be flooded.
This dam will be 125 feet high
at the maximum, with a water lev
el 102 feet higher than the pres
ent normal Row river level. Con
stmction will take 2,025,000 cubic
yards of rock, 1,700,000 cubic
yards of rolled earth fill, 75,000
cubic yards of rock and another
110,000 cnbic yards of concrete
