OF BAD FA!TH IN A CLIMATE THAT MEANS PEP AND PROGRESS SEVERAL days ago the East Oregonian carried a news story to the effect that deaths from heat are unknown in Pen - dleton. The official records of local undertaking estab lishments for many years past fail to show a single case of death through heat prostration. The people of the east do not know it and some of our own people do not know it but we have here the finest climate in the world. It is a temperate climate yet we have a length of sunshine never known in the humid east, middle west or even on the western coast. Now sunshine is as essential to human life as to plant life. There are usually some days in midsum mer wnen tne weather here is too hot for comfort. But where is there any region without some climatic shortcomings. It is not to be found.' A section that never suffers from at least a few days of heat is certain to have other disadvantages that are probably worse.. Our nights are always cool, the mornings wonderful and the evenings delightful, even during the warm est period, ji This may sound like boosting but from the standpoint of healthfulness and joy of living one may search far and find no finer place than Pendleton. The city watersipplv is pure and the water is always cool. There is virtually no such thing as typhoid in Pendleton any longer. The death rate is low and in fant mortality in particularly is light. There is no town with younger old men than Pendleton. There are men here who are still active and vigorous in their eighties. Men in their nineties are frequently found despite the fact the city is reputed to be a young man's town. Men and women dont feel old in this region. They retain the'r youth because they drink daily from the elixir cf life the air from. the plains of Eastern Oregon, warmed and purified b.va. ge ;i.:ng sun that shines nowhere more bright er more kindly.,-,. . The Pendleton country has never been especially presented to the waffikl ah a region to be desired by those who would live long and live heartily. But it could be. This region has truly wonderful climatic advantages ana some Cay they will be cap italized. If outsiders ask for proof tell them to look at our In dians. Our Indians are more than holding their own in popula tion while the general rule is for Indian tribes to decrease. The average Indian of the Umatilla reservation looks fat and heal thy, a fact frequently commented upon. It's the climate that does it and the climate of Pendleton has had much to do with gaining for this town a reputation for pep and progress. fc e e e a a m m m THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK STEADY movement of crops to market and to point3 of ex port continues a dominating feature in the business situa tion. A tendency toward better prices for many products, notwithstanding temporary ups and downs, is the natural result of strong export demands; while early marketings, induced by the necessity of meeting past bank loans, is apparently tending to reduce the need for credit in the farming regions and to pro duce an unexpectedly good supply of funds for current purchas ing. Indications continue to improve in the textile trades, prac tically normal conditions being predicted for the autumn and winter in these directions. Some pessimists in the steel trades forecast a continuance of depression extending into tha autumn nd winter in their own line of busines, but improvement in building conditions as well as in railway demand seems likely to bring recovery sooner than is thus predicted. Varying condi tions in corporation earnings are reflected in the reports of Gen eral Motors and some others which show improvements over last year, as contrasted with discouraging earnings returns in other cases. A very hopeful element in the existing outlook is the remarkable maintenance of the purchasing power of the consumer in retail lines. This is illustrated by the growth of dry goods business in the Chicago district in an amount estimat eu at 35 per cent above last year. Building operations in many parts of the country have saown a substantial improvement vhich has brought July transactions as reported by the Bridge Builders and Structural Society to about one-third of shop capacity. Federal Reserve officials have given every assurance that the general banking position was never better. Meantime, the continued inward flow of gold is raising the general reserve position of the banking system practically to pre-war levels. This influx, which during the past week has again added sever al millions to our net gold, is now involving movement from bouth America. Combined with fresh German reparation pay ments and speculation in exchange, the situation as regards the purchasing power of foreign currency has been growing so se rious as to give rise to the administration's tentative proposal for an exchange conference to be held simultaneously with the disarmament conference. The rapid depreciation of the mark und of the various currencies of Southern and Eastern Europe udds fori e to the suggestion. Sucii a conference might result in improving some contemporary conditions, although ultimate correction of the exchanges must depend upon tax reduction und restoration of governmental solvency throughout Europe. Meantime the continued absence of any definite svstcm of fi- I::!:c :; " ! ir.'ien trmti and lhi crtiwth f tmr in-ill "f-iwir-.l ille" bah.nce almost unavoidably tends to make exchange quo iHtions less stable than they otherwise would be. The needs of l.uropo for our food Muffs will rather tend during coming m nths to accentuate this state of things.
