THE EUGENE REGISTER-GUARD
OUT COTTON MAY
By RAYMOND CLAPPER
Tnlted Press Staff Correspondent)
WASHINGTON, An. 13. (U.B
The federal farm board's proposal for
Abstraction of one-taird of the cotton
crop la the moat extensive effort yet
inane by tha government to deal with
the huge snrmuses 01 rne oecesssne
of lift which are piling up in th
intent of rienresslnn.
Tha proposal was eipeeted roday
to load to severe controversy.
It follows np private efforts !n the
Urn direction in otner commocmies.
California neach rrowers are re
ported to have agreed to destroy a
Jgrsa portion of their surplus. In
Kansas wheat farmera hare dumped
their train in tha atreeta or let It lie
father than sell It for 25 cents a
ushel.
Pronoaals are being revived to send
fcart of tha government-owned wheat
to feed famine-stricken Chlneae.
Pome are. augceetlng disposition of
80.000.100 bushels this way. i-resi'
Aim TTnover's Information la thai
only about 10,000,000 bushels eonld
Da disposed or.
Governor W. H. Murrav of OMa
tioma him foreihlr shut down flush
wells and federal officials here hnvo
rebuked Texns operatora for not clos'
log down also.
At the asm time, with the batli
article of food, clothing and fuel
drnff on tha market, federal offl'
dale are being warned there will be
. mora human hardship In aome loeall
ties next winter than last year. Fres
fdenl Hoover Is awaiting complete re
ports ae to local nccda before deciding
upon a reoerai program, uunniumii
are expected to be worst In middle
western industrial regions, according
to authoritative advices. 'Ilia first ef-
fort is to insure that local comma
pities exhaust tbelr own resonrcea
before federal aid la given.
The cotton destruction plan raises
the question why jt is necessary to
destroy possibly millions of dollars
worth of these necessaries when mil
lions are in want. Officials do not
profess to have any answer except
that it la an emergency and that In
tha end individual Initiative will work
out all right. Tha situation Is In the
cpinlon of many, heading to a show
down next winter aa to whether In
inch a complex civilisation Individual
nitlative will work without, guidance
and soma organized assistance from
the whole people acting collectively aa
government.
SOUTH SPLIT UP
ATLANTA. Aug. 13. flJ.B Lead'
fers of the south are not In agreement
on the wisdom of the farm board
plan to hold Ita surplus cotton for
year If cotton producing state"
arret to destroying a third of th cur
rent cron. Kenctions range all the
way from "grentest thing tha bonrd
ver did to Just so much mink.
Governors and cotton mnnutactnr
ra are aplit by tha proposal, and
state officials are not in agreement.
Planters are Inclined to fnvor aome
form of storage of thla year'a surplus
with stringent reduction of acreage
Bext year.
Tha destruction of a portion of the
present crop is an old proposal, rais
ed In many sections throughout the
cotton belt by recognised lenders of
the Industry, who have urged that It
lis plowed under or Just not picked
$t alL when arbitrary reduction of
ejaega appeared slight.
FARMERS OPPOSED
DALLAS, Tex., Aug. 18. CP M.
H. Wolfe, general manager of the
farmers marketing association or
America, in a communication to Gov
ernor Ross Sterling of Texas declar-
g today that tha federal farm board
In no position to ask the farmera
destroy one-third of their cotton
crop to boost prlcea, he said:
"Regarding the farm board's pro
posal to plow np one-third of the
cotton crop, I would suggest that It
would be better to plow up the farm
board. Aa long as tha farm board gam
bles in futures and demoralises the
marketa of the world, tha board la In
no position to ask tha farmera to de
stroy one-third of their property to
help the price,"

Students at the University of Ore
gon, both old and those entering this
fall, have an unusual opportunity
offered them for guidance and ad
vice, a service that should prove of
great value to them throughout their
college careers and alter, it Is de
clared by O. Laurgaard, of Portland,
president of the "Oregon Dads' and
Mrs. F. W. Bond, president of the
Oregon Mothers, who have just made
a thorough study of the student ad
visory system here at the request of
Tretudent Arnold Bennett Hall.
The student advisory system at the
university, regarded as one of the
moRt efficient in the Cnited States,
will be enpecially valuable this year,
due to the fact that larger and fewer
clansea will be held on the cam pun,
and the close contact between faculty
and student so greatly desired will
be facilitated largely through this
means, it U pointed out by Mrs.
Bond and Mr. Laurgaard.
The advisory system operates on
der the direction of the recently
established personnel bureau, herded
by Dean Karl W. Onthank. Knch
year outstanding faculty members
who hare a keen understanding of
students and their problems, are
selected to act as advisors. As stu
dents register, they are assigned to
one of these advisors, usually in the
school or department in which they
plan to continue their major work.
As the students register a special
card with information on the student
is filled out. This is available to the
advisor. An aptitude test and other
examinations are also given the en
tering student, and material thus
found often proves valuable in hand
ling student problems.
Students are free to go to their
advisors or to staff members of the
personnel bureau and discurs with
chi'in their courses in the university,
ntudy problems they encounter, as
welt as tlif.tr other affairs, sflch as
living conditions, social programs and
others. Advisors and others with
whom they come in contact offer
them friendly advice and assist them
in every way.
The bureau also extends to the
student ita facilities for vocational
guidance, a service that Is proving
specially valuable in thia day of in
tensive specialization in life work.
The atudent wiU be told frankly
whether or not he. Is fitted for work
he desires to follow, and by scientific
means his aptitude for certain lines
may be determined. This phase of
work, as well as other projects. U
under the direction of Dr. Howard R.
Taylor, regarded by educators as one
of the outstanding men in this field
in the entire country.
Parents of students should urge
their boys and girls to seek advice
of the personnel bureau, rather tban
that of fraternity or sorority associ
ates. Mr. Laurgaard pointa out, for
in this way often much wasted effort
may be avoided, and students get the
most out of the time they spend on
the campus.
Cooperation of every parent with
the university staff Is asked by
President Hall, through the heads of
the Dads and Mothers organizations.
"The anlverslty exists to serve the
students and the state," aayi Dr.
Hall. If mothers and fathers will
spend a little time with their boys
ond girls, studying out their prob
lems with them, and especially urg
ing them to take full advantage of
the facilities here, it will greatly aid
us in giving the best we have to the
students."
The university will open Its fall
term September 21. when "freshman !
week" will start. Regular classes fori
all students will begin on September
2S.
Farmers of the Lake Creek valley
are interested in the plan to form a
public utility district and erect an
electric power plant at Triangle lake,
according to H. A. Rust, well known
resident of the Blachly district, who
was in Eugene Thursday. Preliminary
papers were filed a few days ago with
the state hydro-electric power com
mission created by the last state legis
lature. If the plans are carried out the
entire like Creek valley will be elec
trified and the farmers of that section
of the county will derive the benefit
of cheap power for the operation of
their machinery and cheap llsht for
their bouses, it was pointed out by Mr.
Rust. Sawmills and other industrial
plants would also benefit, he said.
Under the new state law it is neces
sary to obtain the signatures of a cer
tain number of voters In the proposed
district on a petition, then take it to
the county clerk who issues a certifi
cate and then present it to the hydro
electric commission.
Mr. Rust said that a plant with a
