Mountain Climbing
Lecture Scheduled
Thrills of mountain climbing, with
a vivid description as well as illus
trations, will be offered to summer
session students and people of Eu
gene Friday evening by Don Woods,
noted mountain climber. The lecture.
whi h will be free, will be held in Vil
lard hall at eight o'clock and towns
people are urged to attend.
The lecture and pictures will cover
three different trips In Canadian
mountains, each of which was replete
with adventure.
Woods has scaled 45 mountain
peaks in Canada and 20 in the Cas
cade mountains. He ia a member of
the American Alpine club of Can
ada, the Portland Mnsamas and the
Kngene Obsidians. He graduated from
tho University of Oregon in 1020 and i
received his master of arts degree
here in 1931.
Telephone Rate
Hearing Postponed
The hearing on the rates, of the
Pacific Telephone and Telegraph com
pany which waa recently aet for July
10 in Portland has been postponed un
til a later date, not yet aet. according
to a message received br F D. Pet-
aold of Central, who ia hea'd of the
Lane county Rural Telephone Users
association. litis ia the second post

Mr. Pet sold and others represent
ing the rurnl association had plan

county group has complained that
rental and tolls on the rural lines
are excessive. ' -
ence to stabilize prices," declared Mr.
James. "A price arbiter, who would
set prices in accordance with the price
trend here and elsewhere, would en
able growers and distributors to know
exactly where they stand In regard to
market prices for produce."
The price arbiter would be ft dts
interested person who would give his
full time to the matter of price ad
justment. He would disseminate daily
information on prices and all handlers
of vegetables would be expected to
abide by his announcements. His sal
ary, the figure not yet discussed,
would be paid by the association.
This, It was emphasized, would be
but ft temporary measure, to be in
effect np to the time the agricultural
recovery act becomes effective in the
industry here.
T. M. B. Hicks, Jr., partner of the
McMorran and Washburne store, dis
cussed the features of the National
Recovery Act and its effect on the
vegetable growing industry. He point
ed out that the law stated that "the
individual farmer who raises bis crop
and sells it and keeps the transaction
out of the jurisdiction of the head of
interstate commerce does not have to
be restricted by any code drawn."
He said, however, that sale of pro
duce to a cannery which shipped to
other states might bring the matter
under the interstate commerce regu
lation. The law has not been clearly;
defined as yet on all points, he said. '
J. O. Holt, aecretary-manaecr of
the .Eugene Fruit Growers' associa
tion, discussed the agricultural recov
ery act. pointing to the need for i
more uniform wage scale In the can
nery industry and urged regulation of
prices in the cherry growing industry,
the commercial department and $17,'

few weeks ago Brown began suit to
recover certain mortgages and bonds
which ha claims were illegally trnm
ferred from the company to the bank
before the bank closed a year ago
last April.
The petitioner further asks that
certain mortgages be retained by the
state bank superintendent in hia care
as trustee and held as collateral for
certain bonds.
