POPULATIONS
HE fashionable family
of the English speaking
peoples is an automobile
and a poodle dog, according to
definition by a free lance com
mentator writing to a Portland
newspaper. His rather point
ed statement sums up a disser
tation on race suicide among
the white peoples.
While the American family
is small, compared to that of
the colored races .and some
white peoples, it is by no means
a passing institution. Kace
suicide has not yet come to the
point where the American
people are a decadent one and
the proof that American youths
are strong and virile was fur
nished a plenty when they
matched strength and brains
with their German foes.
Germany is an example of
the nation which has a high
birthrate. By a system of eu
genics comparable to that in
vogue in tne animal world,
Germany essayed to develop a
race of supermen that would
rule the world. Large families,
and a wave of unrest never be
fore surpassed.
Crimes of every variety are
on the increase,. Politics is be
ing blamed for the failure of
remedial measures in many
ways being taken. The future
of the whole world looks dubi
ous. 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
world's future remain veiled.
Civiliaztion is in a defensive
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.

dead to the centuries-old de-j
sire of peoples or guilty of the
most exaggerated folly.
Senator Lodge has turned a:
mental somersault. It looks'
now like his head is below and
his feet above and, like an os-
represent will pay the bill and
pay dearly. The quibbling
over the peace treaty is the
finest opening in the world for
the many agencies of opposi
tion to organized government
to get in their work and it is
showing in the almost daily
outbreaks throughout the coun
!try. j Closing up the books of war
will allow the United States to
'start on a clean sheet. While
tnis country is neia up oy a
group of political hagglers, the
other nations are reestablish
ing trade routes, aligning rich
tunity for development of the
children and ere long Germany
found itself so crowded as to
be forced into expansion of
some kind.
American families are small
because of the standard of liv
ing and the advantages given
the average American child.
The lower animals have multi
tudes of offspring because
their chance of survival is
slight. The higher animals
and man are subservient to
that same law of nature and
reproduction is limited because
the mortality is low.
An automobile and a poodle
dog may be characteristic of a
good many American families,
but the prevalence of such a
condition is not alarming as
yet. Better a population which
can exist on the products of its
own land, maintain itself and
keep peace than a population
growing so rapidly mat in
its despair to find room to live
and food to eat it is imbued
with the spirit of conquest by
war.
WO million passenger
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 years ago the automo
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.

note that in the month of June,

40 per cent of the total ex
ports for June,' amounting to
$898,000,000',:-' was food. Six

and 3,500,000 barrels of wheat
flour were exported during the
month, besides 17,000,000
bushels of rye, 6,000,000 bush

and grain products valued at
$17,000,000. More than $174,

ham, 117,000,000 pounds of
lard and 115,000,000 pounds
of condensed milk.
In addition to these were raw
