State WW Chief
Advocates Peace
Commander J. H- Schum Is
Speaker at S Overton
District Meet
Voicing the o r g a n 1 s a tion's
strong advocacy of peace, by keep
ing American shipping and cit
izenry ont of the war tone and
withholding protection from them
in the event of their Injury or
death. State Commander Join H.
Schum, lieutenant of the Portland
police department, delivered a
spirited address before approxi
mately SCO members of the six
posts of Veterans of Foreign Wars
and their auxiliaries In attendance
at the meeting of the fourth dis
trict in tbe SUverton armory Wed
nesday night.
Commander Schum took excep
tion to the term "ex-service man"
as applied to veterans of the last
and former wars, emphasizing the
spirit of the veterans as always re
maining in service in the promo
tion of peace and tbe upholding of
American Ideals of true democ
racy. The VFW Is on record of favor
ing the "cash and carry" law, as
embodied in the neutrality act,
without benefit of "credit"; con
tinued compliance with the provi
sions of the Johnson act; retention
of the arms and ammunition em
bargo policy.
Comrade Barnes, of Portland,
outlined a plan of the department
of Oregon to place highway mark
ers at tbe entrance of all towns
and cities where there are posts
of the VFW, giving the name of
the community, information as to
meeting of the local unit of the
organization and about the com
munity. IN flNANCINtt THE CttOfT

contingent upon Its acceptance by
the bondholders
The proposal Includes a provi
sion that S 600,000 of new capital
shall be made available to the
company by the American Power
& Light company to finance by
product plant extension. Authori
zation of the issue of (010 shares
of common ; stock to the parent
concern to provide this additional
cash was Included in the order.
Bean said the present status of
the company's earnings was such
as to make it impracticable for It
to procure funds to meet payment
of the bonds at. their maturity.
The proposed extension Bean pre
dicted, would conserve and pro
tect the Interests of the bondhold
ers, the unsecured general credi
tors, stockholders and the com
pany's utility customers.
"The additional $(00,000 cash
to be made available from the
sale of 000 shares of common
stock should assist the company
la its efforts to Increase Its net
Income by developments requiring
a large capital outlay," Bean said.
He declared that the new money
also would prove beneficial to the
investors in senior securities
The new issue of common stock
would be subordinate to the
bonds, general creditors claims
and preferred stock.
Hearing on the plan before the
securities and exchange commis
sion has been set for October IS.

The Salem Merchants associa
tion announced Thursday that.
as had been informally reported
at the legion meeting Monday
night, the merchants had voted
65 to 24 to keep their stores
open on Armistice day unless def
inite assurance is given that the
Portland stores will close, In
which case the Salem merchants
will reconsider.
The association recommended
that all merchants permit em
ployes who are war veterans to
have the day off with pay.
The Salem ' merchants have
taken the attitude that it is in
the interests of the patriotic or
ganizations for the stores here
to remain open on Armistice day.
wnicn iaus on Saturday, and for
merchants in other cities near
Portland to do the same, in or
der eventually to convince Port
land merchants that they should
close on the holiday. Veterans'
organizations here have passed
resolutions asking that the stores
close, but their efforts also are
primarily aimed at inducing the
Portland merchants to observe
the day.
The Marion county voiture. 40
et 8, voted Wednesday night at
Its regular meeting to support
lapuai post in its local effort
toward obtaining full observance
of the day.
Representatives of five patriotic
organizations met to consider the
matter Thursday night at the
chamber of commerce but took
no final action.

Political Talk Useless
Talk of economic and political
forms are "useless baggage" in
the consideration of democracy
and people may well profit by
getting down to its fundamentals.

told the Salem Lions club, yes-

Oregon Market Study
Suggested by Sprague
Launching: a campaign to study and improve marketing
and industrial conditions in Oregon without waiting for
legislative action was suggested by Governor Charles A.
Sprague in a statement issued here Thursday.
The suggestion followed a recent meeting of agricul
tural and industrial leaders here who recommended that the
governor appoint an Oregon eco-O
nomie council to conduct the mar
keting study and report its find
ings to the next legislature. The
governor said he would appoint
the council soon.
"It seems to me that the needs
for marketing parallel or closely
Join utilization of resources and
industrial development which I
have previously had under con
sideration," Governor Sprague
said. "It appears to me that we
might launch work along this line
without waiting for legislative ao
tlon." He said it had been in
timated that some funds might
and purchase of the old iason
Lee residence on Broadway as a
memorial building to a "stream
lined" festival looking to the
next 10 years' progress more than
back at the last century.

Two conclusions were set out
in Governor Sprague's statement:
That education in marketing
and technical research shpuld be
handled by the state system of
higher education which Is doing
excellent work along these lines
with the means available.
That practical studies In utilis
ation of resources, promotion and
Industrial development and coun
sel In marketing be assigned to
the Oregon economic council.
Governor Sprague said this
council could initiate its work
and if it so desires make recom
mendations to the legislature.
"Our unified effort, however,
should not await or depend on
legislative a e 1 1 o n," Governor
Sprague concluded.
