In September CIVILIZATION'S HOPE S civilization due for a crash or are the world's peoples evolving: into a new state, neither savage, bar baric or civilized? ' The evi dences of civilization as known to the present generation are rapidly vanishing in almost every part of the globe. What is to be the next development is interesting matter for con jecture. Greed is becoming one of the ruling passions of the world's populace. It appears in nati ons, reaching out for lands to exploit commercially. These exploitations often take on the form of conquest, if not by ac tual warfare by means almost as deadly. Greed is also a personal or group characteris tic growing upon people. The profiteer is an example of this. A few persons would hold the destinies of their nation or the world in the palm of their hands. Distrust and suspicion, envy and aspiration are growing. Nations are binding together by pacts and secret treaties and peoples crying for self determi nation are threatening .civil war to obtain their freedom. The heritage of the recent war is a struggle of commercialism and a wave of unrest never be fore surpassed. Crimes of every variety are on the increase. Politics is be- insr blamed for the failure of remedial measures in' many ways being taken. The "future of the whole world looks dubi ous. ;V' The United States is still the most enlightened of nations. It was looked to by the defensive nations as a deliverer from the Hun curse and it delivered. It is now looked to as a keeper of the peace as a part of the League of Nations. While the United States allows the ulti mate peace to be juggled at the finger tips of a few wilful : men, the bright hopes for the j world's future remain veiled, j Civiliaztion is in a defensive j fight for its life and the United States senate can be its right arm if it will. The League of Nations covenant is the hope of the world and that hope rests with the senate. , bile industry was less develop ed than is that of commercial airplanes today. One car is being produced for every 50 of this country's population, according to the figures. Umatilla county has one car for every seven of its population, or seven times the average of production this year. It will probably not be long before airplanes are just as plentiful. In spite of the great produc tion of motor vehicles this year, the country is 100,000 autos short of the demand today. It is no wonder that in 20 years the industry has grown to be the country's third greatest. . EXPORTS OF FOODSTUFFS 1 Vf A GREAT INDUSTRY s WO million passenger fl autos, 400,000 trucks and about an equal number of motorcycles repre sents the total output predicted for the motor industry in the United States for this year. Twenty year ago the automo- U N view of the agitation over the high prices for food it is interesting to note that in the month of June, according to the figures of the Department of Commerce, 40 per cent of the total ex ports for June, amounting to $898,000,000, was food. Six teen million bushels of wheat and 3,500,000 barrels of wheat flour were exported during the month, besides 17,000,000 bushels of rye, 6,000,000 bush els of barley and other grains and grain products valued at $17,00a,000. More than ?174, 000,000 worth of meats and dairy products were exported, the principal items being 270, 000,000 pounds of bacon and ham, 117,000,000 pounds of lard and 115,000,000 pounds of condensed milk. . In addition to these were raw materials of various kinds, all food products. It is useless to boast of a large increase in for eign trade as a sign of prosper ity when our own people can not buy and consume sufficient to keep them from want. AMERICA'S DUTY? or AN and will the treaty, if ratified, bind the Unit ed States to interfere constantly in European affaini with its army, . navy and money? Hardly, unless public opinion approves of interven tion. The treaty undertakes to separate millions of people from their nationals and place them under the jurisdiction of new states of different racial strains. The treaty multiplies the number of potential Al-sace-Lorraines by ten. If these forcibly created racial minori ties have their rights properly safeguarded, if they are treat ed as equals before the law, if they are given linguistic and religious freedom, the wound will heal in time and the dif ferent races will get along as well together as , the French, German and Italian elements of Switzerland. But if the dominant race tries by force to denationalize the minority, as the Germans did in Alsace-Lorraine and Po land, as the Serbs are doing right now in Montenegro and Croatia, then new conflicts are inevitable. September Sun set. BISMARCK'S WINE THIRST. Man of Rlood and Iron Drank SOOO Bottles of Champagne. In his choice of drinks Bismarck displayed a somewhat unpatriotic spirit. Talking to Mr. John Booth in 187. Bismarck confessed that when stationed at St. Petersburg, he used to drink two bottles of champagne a day. He estimated that altogether he had drunk 000 bottles of champagne and smoked 100,000 cigars. On another occasion Bismarck de clared that beer "makes men stupid, laxy and useless. It Is responsible for the democratic nonsense spouted over the tavern tables. A good rye whiskey Is very much, better."
